IPhone 4S with iOS 6 - Can not delete an app

After upgrading to iOS 6, I don't see the little x icon to delete an app. When I hold the icon for some time, I can see the icons wiggiling, but don't see the "x" mark on the top left corner. As a result I can not delete any app from the phone. Any idea what's happening?

  • IPhone 3GS with iOS 5 and storage space/app problems... Please read and help

    I have an iPhone 3GS with iOS 5. Before the update I had a load of apps etc and was left with approx 4gb space left. Since the update removed ALL my apps from my iPhone, I still have the same ammount of space. Why is this?

    Hi,
    Are you sure your phone has not been unlocked or jailbroken at some time as the same thing happened to me.
    I had the phone secondhand and did not know. Updating to IOS 5 locked the phone back to the original service provider which was AT&T in USA and I am in UK.
    Hope this helps,

  • Why does my iPhone 4 with iOS 7 not display certain emails correctly

    After I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7, some emails are not displayed correctly. I have also updated my iPad, but the same email looks fine on it. The first email I noticed the problem with was actually from Apple. I have attached the image of how it displays.

  • How to prevent iPhone 4 with iOS 5 from deleting email from the MSN server

    when I was running iOS 4 I could sent my iPhone to never delete emails from the server but I just noticed that after the update iOS 5 when I delete an emial from my iPhone it shows up as deleted in my Outlook on my laptop. I looked and was not able to find a setting to prevent my iPhone from deleting emails fromt the server.
    Am I missing something?

    Thank you for responding!  The music I no longer want, I removed.  This is why it's confusing me so much.  The music I've deleted from both my iPhone and my computer is STILL showing up in my Music on iTunes, under my iPhone in devices.  Does that make sense?  I'm not particularly down with the techie lingo.  Haha.

  • Itunes can not sync apps with the iphone [name], because it can not determine which apps are installed on the iphone.

    After installing the latest Version of iTunes (10.5.1.42) on my Windows XPs PC it's not possible to sync my iPhone 3GS (not iOS 5!) any more - I get the error message above. It's possible to download music, apps, podcasts - but not possible to sync with my iPhone..
    Any Ideas?

    Basic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore.  Have the first two been tried?
    How about simply unplugging the iPhone and plugging it back in to sync?
    What has been done in an attempt to troubleshoot the issue?

  • Why my music application in iphone 4 with IOS 5 not working properly??

    I have Updated mine to IOS 5 and my songs are not playing pproperly from the new Music App. They are syncing properly but not playing some songs,skipping some songs and showing one song but playing another.. Its annoying..Please help me.. Thanks
    Harish,..

    Hi all.
    Possible fix:
    Had this annoying issue, or similar. Songs on my iphone 4 would skip untilit found a song it could play, but often left up on the screen a different song to the one playing. It appeared songs hadnt been transferred or were missing causingthe phone to skip the songs.
    I heard that if you get a 'weird' beep noise this is the 'shake to shuffle' feature which can be turned off via Settings>Music.
    If you have a similar issue to mine, I read converting to AAC (right click song in Itunes and choose 'convert to AAC) could work, and did for me, but is time consuming and duplicates the song.
    What worked for me? Turning off 'convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC' on the Devices>Your Iphone main menu (device summary page). This reloads all songs to the iphone and appears to fix the issue. I have checked a few songs I knew had issues and they now work, and I can get through 10+ shuffle songs (thats as many as I checked) without a skip.
    Good luck. Let me know if it works.

  • IPhone 4 with IOS 5 not connecting to wifi

    I got the IOS 5 update for my iPhone on October 12th. I was connecting to my home wifi fine. starting yesterday it stopped connecting. My laptops and other devices connect fine.
    I've...
    Rebooted the phone
    reset the network settings
    turned wifi on/off
    turned the modem off for ten seconds and turned it back on
    turned off then turned on my phone
    Others have the same problem and I need a solution! My last resort is to restore my phone, but I doubt that'll do any good anyways. I'm thinking I should take it to apple and have them fix it. This isn't my fault, so they should be able to fix this for free, right?
    Also, when trying to connect it to my wifi access point, it will load adn load and load and while I'm doing something, it'll pop up saying I've entered the wrong password. It's the correct password because I tested it out on my laptop and connected fine.
    Any suggestions? No. Any answers that work? Please?

  • IPhone 4s with iOS 6 not able to make calls?

    Everytime i try to make a call it shows calling mobile, then after a few seconds says call ended. Anyone else having trouble? Also no phone calls come through

    Haven't seen that issue yet but you could try doing a hard reset (hold down the power and home button together for 15s)  or resetting network settings (settings > general > reset > reset network settings)
    also does it show you as having good service where your at or have you had issues like this before

  • Can not delete the bookmarked apps in Iphone Screen

    I have bookmark some apps in my Iphone Screen and I can not delete them any more,  I try to delete through Itune and manual delete and succesfully deleted but soon  after restart the Iphone all deleted apps are back, please help

    What you can try is the following:
    In the Aperture library package are two folders, one named Folders and the other named Albums. Inside these two folders are files, one named TrashFolder.apfolder the other namedtrashAlbum.apalbum.
    With Aperture not running move  those two to the desktop and then start Aperture holding down the option and command keys and rebuild the library. The two files will be recreated. Can't guarantee it will correct your trash problem but its worth a shot.
    As always whenever you're mucking about in the package there is always the chance that the library could be damaged so a backup is a very good idea.
    good luck

  • How can I delete an app that doesn't show as installed but is?

    I can not delete an app that is on my iphone 5.  Unfortunely I do not remember the name of it!  It shows up as a moveable round botton within a square on all opened screens. When tapped it opens up four options: Favorites, Siri, Device and Home.  It was a cool time saver with the iOS5, but with the addition of comand center in iOS7 It is rather in the way.  Does anyone know the name of this app and or how to uninstall it??  Thanks for any help

    That did it, it's gone!  I don't understand, is it uninstalled? 
    THANK YOU so much   

  • I have an iphone 5 with ios 6. I am trying to setup a new exchange email account. I need the backslash but it is not available. I can find it on other apps but not when trying to set up the mail account. (it is not on the  keyboard)

    I have an iphone 4s with ios 6. I am trying to setup a new exchange email account. I need the back slash but it does not show up on the keyboard. I know it is supposed to be on the +key (and is for other apps) but for some reason it is not available when setting up an email account. Is this on purpose or am I doing something wrong?

    I can tell you that with Sprint their coverage area isn't as good as Verizon or AT&T.
    Are you sending these imessage while on wifi or cellular data?  Also your husband would need to be in a good coverage area.
    Usually when imessage is unavailable it will send it as a text.  Does your husband receive your imessage as a text?
