I've just discovered that with the newest version of iTunes you can no longer delete apps you don't want.  You used to be able to do so by connecting to to desktop computer and delete them.  Tech support said you can't delete apps anymore.  Not Good!

I've just discovered that with the newest version of iTunes you can no longer delete iPod Touch/iPhone apps you don't want.  You used to be able to do so by going onto iTunes on your desktop computer and deleting them.   Not Good!  I just called tech support and they said that in this version there is no way to delete them. They also said there have been numerous complaints about this.  You can't even delete them from your applications folder.  It's as though you're being held hostage to apps you tried, but do not want.
While we're on the subject, I don't like the fact the the iPod touch comes with unistalable apps such as: Passbook, Nike & iPod, Newsstand, and Game Center. Don't want them, will never use them.  Give customers the option to delete apps that we don't want.  Call Apple's corporate customer care. escalation, and complain untill they fix this.

Actually,
Step 1:
Step 2.
Step 3.
Step 4.
Step 5.
One of us must be wrong.

  • When I connect my iPod touch it tells me that I need a new version of Apple Mobile Device Support and to uninstall iTunes and then re-install it, I've done that twice with the newest version of iTunes and it still doesn't work?

  • Is it just me that finds the latest version of iTunes a bit rubbish? Is there any way to have a playlist open in a new window?

    Is it just me that finds the latest version of iTunes a bit rubbish? I'm used being able to open a playlist in a separate window in order to browse through my music and easily drag and drop tracks into the playlist (in a separate window). It also meant that I could search and play the contents of my main library and just drag and drop into a large space AND easily hit the stop button and instantly hit the pay button to just start a new tune from a new playlist. Now you can only press pause / play / pause and so on. If I want to view the contents of a playlist while listening to another I need to navigate to it which takes me away from what I'm doing in the other. It just makes for a lot of clicking and navigating around the houses when I used to be able to have multiple windows.
    I'm an avid music fan and just love organising my music to make finding / listening to my favourites eaiser.
    Maybe I'm just a bit thick and not using the software correctly, but it seems that a lot of handy features have been either removed or replaced with inferior ones (at least for me anyway). I appreciate that probably for most generic general music goers this isn't an issue, but for me it is.
    A rather long winded way of asking if anybody knows if it's possible to have multi-windows open, but also a chance to have a public moan about a great piece of software that has been updated and gone backwards - a bit like the iPhone google / apple maps situation!

  • What is the problem with the newest version of iTunes (Failed to install - error 7

    What is the problem with the newest version of iTunes (Failed to install - error 7 & missing MSVCR80.dll) - the DLL is not missing.  tgried to install today and it failed - what a waste.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall go to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

    As said in the question, my ipod touch will not connect to the newest version of itunes. When I plug it in, my compter recognizes that a device has been connected, yet it will not show up in itunes. I didn't have this problem until I just updated to the new itunes. Someone help please!

  • HT201302 photos on my Ipad  were synced with my desktop computer and ldelete them from my Ipad will they be deleted from my computers?

    I am giving my son my Ipad 1 . I would like to delete my photos from that device. If I do so willt they be deleted from my Lap and new Ipad where they were originally synced?

    No, just de-select them on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes and they should be deleted from that iPad - they will still be on the laptop and the other iPad. If de-selecting them doesn't remove them from the iPad then try selecting an empty folder on that Photos tab instead.

  • How can I play my iPod songs to my computer speakers (Windows 7 32-Bit with the newest version of iTunes)

    I have an iPod touch 4th generation, an Apple TV and a Windows 7 Home Premium PC. I can play songs from my iPod touch to the Apple TV and from the computer to the Apple TV, but how can I play songs from my iPod touch to my computer speakers?

    Step 1 – Open the Terminal.app
    Either by start typing Terminal on the Spotlight, or by going into Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal.
    Step 2 – Open the hosts file
    Open the hosts by typing on the Terminal that you have just opened:
    view source
    print?
    1
    $ sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
    Type your user password when prompted.
    Step 3 – Edit the hosts file
    By deleting
    #74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
    #127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
    from your hosts file, save close and then reboot.
    Or in Windows:
    Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc, open hosts file in notepad and remove
    #74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
    #127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
    Save it and then reboot.

  • Im thinking about getting a laptop. would windows 7 starter work with the newest version of itunes or would a different version of windows work better?

    I just want to make sure it works well because im getting rid of my computer.

    iTunes can run in Windows XP SP3 or later versions of Windows, so it works with iTunes

  • IPod touch erased when I updated and synced it on a different operating system.  Forgot password to backup file.  Windows 7 is a bust for the newest version of itunes.  Tired of fooling with it, so I tried to update and sync ipod to hubby's laptop.

    Sooooooo sick of trying to fix the bug with the newest version of itunes and Windows 7.  I'm over it.  Tried syncing ipod to hubby's laptop.  When update and sync was complete, all my apps, music, and pictures were gone.  When I open my itunes account on his computer, they are gone from there as well.  I cannot open itunes on my computer because I cannot fix the compatability issue.  Don't tell me how to go to 'computer', click 'program files' etc. etc......  Did that, unchecked compatability mode and nothing is fixed.  About to take a hammer to darned thing.

    Also, I have forgotten the password to my backup file, which could solve everthing.  I don't really remember ever setting a password for the backup file.  Tried every password I've ever used with this device.

I have tried reinstalling several times and I get the same message . Any ideas? I am most appreciative. I am using Windows 7.

    Hi 49balf,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I recommend removing and reinstalling iTunes using these steps:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.

    I just downloaded the newest version of Itunes, I deauthorized all of my computers and now can't find the menu to authorize.  It refers to a store menu that doesn't exist on the new software.  My account allowed me to deauthorize, but has no option to authorize.  I am completely confused with the new software, I just want to download my music to my new computer.

    With iTunes 11 on PCs the drop-down menus are hidden by default - control-B should get the menus to show
