I want to remove apps from iCloud

Hoy can i do?

You can't remove them because they aren't stored in your personal iCloud account.  They are stored in the App store.  What you are seeing are links to your previous purchases in the App store, and Apple will not remove anything from your list of previous purchases.

    Hey ktillis88,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, the following resource may be helpful:
    iCloud: Understanding Backup alert messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4576
    "Backups for appname cannot be turned off at this time."
    This message occurs if disabling Backup for an app on your iOS device does not complete successfully. Wait a few minutes and then attempt to disable Backup for the app again. If you continue to receive this alert, contact iCloud Support for assistance.
    Thanks,

  • HT4859 Removing apps from iCloud

    I am wanting to remove apps that I no longer want from iCloud and my purchase history.  I have too many old apps mixed in with the apps that I use and want to declutter.  Can anyone help with this?

    Before IOS 6 there was option to hide apps (not to remove, just hide). Not on ipad with ios6, but you can still do it on your computer's itunes.
    Check if it works for you.

  • How do I permanently remove apps from iCloud?

    I would like to permanently remove old and unwanted apps from iCloud and all my devices (iPad, iPhone, and iTunes), but there does not seem to be a way to do this. In fact, there seems to be an strong underlying effort to avoid this option. No discussions, no steps, no Support options.
    Any suggestions?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    The apps are not actually in your iCloud storage, they are links to the apps in the App Store. What you are seeing is your purchase history and as such cannot be deleted.
    You can however hide your purchases, which you can do from the QuickLinks > Purchased option from the main page in the iTunes Store on your computer.

  • ICloud & Numbers, wanting to remove numbers from iCloud..

    Apparently, if you have iCloud set up on your mac (in my case mac mini), Numbers automatically saves the spreadsheets by default to iCloud.  I do not want all of my spreadsheets in iCloud.  I do not want ANY of them in iCloud now, especially as it simply uses up too much space.  I went to the Numbers Help for Mac, in the area of Move a spreadsheet to or from iCloud. This is what I found, " 
    Choose File > Move To (from the File menu at the top of your computer screen), choose a new location from the Where pop-up menu, then click Move.
    When I did this, I did not receive a new choice.  Apparently it is something simple that I am missing.  Do I make a new file to move these to and hope the computer keeps it "in" and not sending it to the icloud...??  any help will be appreciated!  TY in advance...

    To download a Numbers document to your computer, go to icloud.com from your Mac, sign into your account, open Numbers beta, select a documents and choose Download Document from the Action (gear) menu.  It will download to your default downloads location on your Mac.
    To disable Numbers syncing with iCloud, go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Options... next to Documents & Data, then uncheck Numbers.
    To disable it on an iOS device (if you're using the iOS version), go to Settings>Numbers and turn Use iCloud to Off.  You can then open Numbers and you will get an option to keep the documents on your device if you want to.

    Deselect the boxes for the apps you don't want in iCloud.
    Select the Summary tab.

  • HT4759 how do i remove an app from icloud?

    how do i remove an app from icloud?

    The only thing you can do is tap and hold the Kindle app icon until it wiggles.  Then tap the "x" next to the icon to delete it.  This removes it from the device.
    Then open the App Store app on the device and look up the Kindle app.  Then tap the icon to download it (again).  That's it, there's no other way to do this.
    When deleting an app from a device, that also removes all settings and other data files associated with that app.  What problem are you having with Kindle?

  • How can I permanently remove apps from my ipad, iphone and ipod (which are in icloud)?

    How can I permanently remove apps from my iphone, ipad, ipod operating in the iCloud?

    Apps don't operate in the cloud - they're either downloaded to your device, or they're in your Purchased list. You can't permanently remove the history of apps you've purchased, but you can hide them. See this link:

  • TS4147 My Contacts are coming from my ICloud Account.  I want it to come from my GMAil Account.  I can remove it from ICloud, but Contacts isn't an option under GMAIL.  What can I do?

    My Contacts are coming from my ICloud Account.  I want it to come from my GMAil Account.  I can remove it from ICloud, but Contacts isn't an option under GMAIL.  What can I do?  Is there a way to merge my gmail contacts to icloud?

    If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Why can't I remove iMessage from iCloud backups?

    Why can't I remove iMessage from iCloud backups?
    I've noticed that my iCloud backups are constantly hitting their 5GB max, even after clearing out camera rolls, etc.
    After some testing, I've found that iMessages are also backed up.   For someone like me, I'm constantly sending pictures / videos to friends and family, having a little guy under a year old (but that's not important).
    In any case, it seems you can set iCloud backup for just about every app EXCEPT iMessages.   The only way I've found to solve this is to constantly delete message threads from my iPhone, so that they aren't taking up iCloud space.   But this honestly is a bit of a pain (okay, only a little bit)...  why can't I keep my messages around for as long as I want, without backing them up? 

    Make sure you have their icloud email they use for imessage in their contact information before sending them an imessage.
