Installing / uninstalling apps - Iphone eprformance

Hi to all of you,
Does installing / uninstalling softwares from Itunes leave some files on the phone or some kind of registry entries on the phone that slows it down after a while?
I come from the Windows World where this is a real issue, maybe not with apple !
Thanks for answering!
Cyril

OSX (what the OS for the iPhone is based off of) doesn't work that way. Nothing like Windows.

Uninstall apps iphone 5

I've read similar questions in the community on deleting apps. I know how to delete an app.
My trouble is un-installing apps from my phone & iTunes.
When my phone is plugged into the latest version of iTunes, the Apps tab on "My iPhone 5" tells me that i have about 20 apps that i can "INSTALL
Meaning i have 20 apps taking up space on my phone, which are not even seen on my phone, correct?
I've tried syncing manually...nothing changes. I am afraid my last option would be to restore my phone, but there HAS to be an easier way.
Or I could be completely wrong and just an idiot...either way. need some answers.
Screen caps or a step-by-step guide would be greaaaaaaat. thanks in advanced.

No, it means you can install them but it's not on the iPhone yet.
If it's on the iPhone you see the Remove button instead.

How to get errors and/or air.trace() from installed air app?

I'm trying to debug an installed air app that behaves
differently once installed than when run with adl. However, i can't
figure out any way to get errors or air.trace() information. I am
on OS X (10.5.6). Any tips?
I imagine this should be easy since debugging an installed
app is pretty much a necessity for development.

You can enable logging to a text file using settings in the
mm.cfg file. See
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_19323
Note that ALL trace output will go to the log.
Other things you can do are:
1. Run the installed app with adl -- just pass the installed
app descriptor to adl on the command line
2. Supply a publisher id to adl. This removes one difference
between installed/ not installed apps and may be enough if the
behavior issue has to do with local connections or other matters
involving the publisher id.
3. Use the adl -nodebug flag. This removes another difference
between installed/uninstalled apps. You won't see uncaught
exceptions, but trace statements are still reported.

ITunes cannot sync... apps installed on the iPhone could not be determined.

I am trying to activate an original iPhone. I keep running into issues (partially because the rest of the world is activating 4Gs phones). I would appreciate any help that is available.
I am working on a MacBook running OSX 10.5.8. My iTunes has been updated- 10.5.
I am currently getting a message- iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPhone “MRL iphone” because the apps installed on the iPhone could not be determined. The iphone screen shows the usb cord/plug pointing to the itunes logo whether attached to a computer or not. And says slide for emergency use.
-I have restored to factory settings several times both from a previous backup and set up as new phone.
-I have even attempted to use another Mac and a family member's windows machine with similar results on all.
-I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes
-I have put the phone into the recovery mode and restored from there
-I have restarted both the computer and phone numerous times
-I have replace the SIM card with a new card from the provider
-I have received an email saying the phone was activated (and have called to verify with the service provider)
I'm sure there are other things I have tried as well that I am forgetting, as I have been at this now for about 3days. There have been times when I got nothing but a breif "accessing iTunes store" and then a white screen with the grey word iPhone in the middle. At least now I have the normal summary screen when clicking on the device. Unfortunately I am still getting an error "iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPhone “MRL iphone” because the apps installed on the iPhone could not be determined." I am not attempting to sync apps, just sync the phone to get a current/clean backup. I will want to sync the apps, just haven't been able to get that far.
By the way, prior to starting this process the iphone worked perfectly- no issues. This just seems to have become an issue when I attempted to restore to factory settings for a clean start with the new line.
This is the furthest I have been able to get in the process. I really need to get this up and running soon as I will need the phone for the work week.
Please help!

Not sure if this is a solution or not but it seemed to work for me. Simply restart your iphone.
From the iphone troubleshooting page
To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

HT204266 Is there a way to "search" for an app I have installed on my iPhone?

I have installed many apps on my iPhone 4s. Now I have trouble finding what I want. Is there a "search" function to find an app?
Also, is there a way to store the apps somewhere so I can use later but do not have to keep on iPhone if not currently using?
thanks jj

Slow double click on the Home button. Search screen appears.
If you have the iPhone associated to a Mac using iTunes 11, the Mac keeps a registry and a local copy of all the apps installed on the phone. You can uninstall on the phone, but the app remains in storage in the Mac for later reinstall without having to redownload from the App Store (and presumably without having to repay). Dunno if same happens on a Windoze platform, don't cohabit with The Enemy...

I deleted the pre-installed iPhoto app from my iPhone 5s by mistake. And I can't find the same app in the App Store. How do I recover it?

iPhoto for iOS is no longer being offered by Apple and has been replaced by the Photos app. It is not compatible with iOS 8. This Apple document may help: Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8 - Apple Support

I want to install an app that requires iOS 5 update. How do I update the software on my phone when I do not have the icon in settings for update software? Please help!

Connect your iPhone to iTunes, and find Software Update in the main interface pane. It should prompt you to install iOS 5.1.1.

How can I install ipad apps on iphone 6 plus?

How can I install ipad apps on iphone 6 plus?

If it's an app made only for iPad, you can't. Some developers make apps which will work on both devices (the + sign in the download button indicates). Some apps are made specifically for one device, and there may be separate versions for each device (so you have to pay twice!). You can install an iPhone-only app on an iPad (but it usually doesnt look great), but you cannot put a phone-only app on an iPad.

I am trying to sync my iphone 4. Get error :"itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone cannot be determined"

I wanted to sync my iphone 4 (cdma). I have synced it before successfully. I am getting an error "itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone cannot be determined" and the apps and items follwoing apps in syncing (photos for example) will not sync. Items prior to apps synced (calendar/contacts). I restarted both my iphone (currently on ios 4.2.8) and my computer, itunes was on 10.6.1, same problem. I installed itunes 10.6.3, same problem. I had been waiting to update ios to 5.1.1 and would like to do that now, but wanted to sync first. Anyone have any ideas? I am stumped! Thank you.

TS1702 When I try to install an app on my iPhone, I get either 'Unable to download / Install Application at this time' or on iTunes I get error 0xe000008

OK, So here's the case on my new iPhone.
A friend gifted me this app for my iPhone and it worked fine on my friends phone ( he downloaded it as well from my account and I authorized it temporarily so he could install it) but when I just tried to install the app on my iPhone, I kept getting an error, like I said in the title, either "Unable to download application (app name) could not be installed at this time" or on iTunes, I would get the error "unknown error 0xe000008" on iTunes, and the app would be un-launchable. I have tried many times to delete it and reinstall, I've tried tips from other users, disabling and re-enabling wifi, logging out and back in my Apple Store account, just about everything, even a fresh re-sync, does anybody have any ideas what to do, and what may be causing this?? This is seriously starting to frustrating me!
Thanks!

Computer is no longer authorized for apps installed on your iPhone

Does anyone else get a message that your computer is no longer authorized for apps installed on your iPhone? When I click "authorize" I get a message that "This computer is already authorized". But when I click ok, I get the first message again . . .

No. You must purchase them under your Apple ID. Anything purchased under someone else's Apple ID will present this same issue. You cannot share items in this way.
Give the above see the following:
Sharing Stuff From Different iTunes Accounts (or Computers)
Here's how to do so using different computers:
Transfer what content you want to the separate iTunes library on each computer. To transfer content from your library to another library do the following. We'll assume this is between husband and wife separate accounts and different Apple IDs.
Launch iTunes under your wife's login;
Sign her out of iTunes, then you sign in;
Select iTunes -> Preferences -> Devices -> Disable auto-sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected;
Connect your phone, DO NOT SYNC;
Select Store -> Authorize this Computer (only have to do this once);
Select File -> Transfer Purchases (all of the purchased content on your phone will be transferred to your wife's library);
When complete eject your phone, sign out of iTunes, sign your wife back in.
You can now sync whatever content you want to your wife's phone. Just remember all updates to apps obtained using your account must be done while signed in using your account: sign wife out, you sign in, update apps, you sign out, sign wife in, sync her phone.
This way you can share content (permitted under the EUSLA) and still maintain your separate logins. Do the same on your computer if you want to share content from your wife's library.
Just load whatever content you want to share on each others phones, transfer the content, then delete it from the respective phone if you don't want to keep it there.

HT1386 Hello, When trying to sync, I get the following message. This computer is no longer authorized for apps that are installed on the iPhone "Terri George's iPhone". Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store?

while trying to sync with my iphone I recieve the message: This computer is no longer authorized for apps that are installed on the iPhone “Terri George’s iPhone”. Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store? When I put in my password and hit authorize, I get a message telling me there was an unknown error (-50). Would love to sync today. Any help would be appreciated.

The -50 error is documented in this article:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
Here is a synopsis:
Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

TS1702 The app "Dictionary+" was not installed on the iPhone "iPhone John" because an Unknown error occurred (0xE800002D). I will not download the updates to the laptop to have apps that work stored there. How do I reinstall iOS 5.1.1??

I do not update apps through my laptop I store the apps that actually have been tested and work on the laptop and test updated apps on the iPhone. After updating the iPhone to iOS 6.0.1 iTunes will not install the apps from iTunes on my laptop to my iPhone without updating the apps online. This is not going to happen from my end and I do not like having control of what MY Laptop and MY iPhone can do seperately forced to be as one. That should be an option of choice not a demand of service.
If anyone has an option like how to reinstall iOS 5.1.1 back onto my 3GS I would love to hear it.
Thanks for any constructive solutions or directions other than here to turn.
I've spent over thirty thousand dollars since 1992 on Macintosh products and I'm on the verge of becoming a Windows OS user based upon this latest Apple tactics of fair use.
iPhone 3GS, iOS 6.0.1
MacBook 10.5.8 - eMac 10.2.8, Mac OS X (10.5.8), MBk 2.4 Intel CorDuo 4GB Mem - eMac 800 Mhz IBM 2GB Mem
One other thing I'm not updating the OS on the laptop; I like the freedom to do as I please with my computer.

Macintosh has never allowed the user to update and or utilize any app or feature if the Operating System was inadequate to do so. Your answer "iOS 6 requires 10.6.8 to run iTunes 10.7" is ineffective at this point and mute. The update should not have been aloud over Wifi or 3G Network to iPhone without the ability to authenticate resources required or needed to operate both iPhnoe iOS and Desktop OS together.
The issue, as has already been explained is that the version of iTunes on the computer will not work with iOS6.
iOS updates via Wi-Fi have nothing to do with iTunes on the computer and does not care what version is on the computer. Personally, I find it completely moronic to update via Wi-Fi as there is really no option for backup or a restore from backup if the update fails. To me, it seems like a great way for the user to create issues for themselves that do not need to exist.
As there is no officially supported method to downgrade the iOS, the only option left if syncing is desired is to upgrade iTunes on the computer.
I really do not understand why you seem so defensive about updating iTunes. Update iTunes on the computer, then sync the device, if that's what you want.
If that's not what you want, other options include updating apps directly on the device via Wi-Fi or 3G or living with it as is.

HT1386 The laptop I originally synch'd my iphone 4s with is broken and cannot retrieve any files. How can I sync the phone with a new laptop without losing all my downloaded music and apps already installed on my iphone?

If the answer to the above question is "yes", FIRST, set up a backup of your new computer before you do anything else so the next time your computer breaks you will not be in the same situation. Backup solutions are numerous and inexpensive, and there is absolutely no excuse in the Third Millennium not to have one.
