Iphone apps - stop forcing junk on my phone

Thanks again for using up valuable space on my iPhone for things like an Apple Watch apps. Seriously, please ask next time you want to push something. There are other valuable upgrades with the latest software, but these schwag apps are not it.

HT201272 I previously downloaded iphone apps and stored them on my phone and computer. Now I want to download them to my ipad but my iphone bit the dust. how can I get previously purchased apps to my new ipad.?

I purchased an application that offered all kinds of books, imbedded within, at no cost...now on IPAD all like books, study guides, are imbedded for purchase. I dont see why I have to pay for the application twice...It was Olive Bible : offering on my phone at least 5-10 different translation, plus 20+ books by the old Church preachers dating back to the reformation forward. Please advise how to access my iphone apps...already paid for...to install on my ipad.

If they are still in the store and you are signed in with the same account (and they are compatible with iPads) then you should be able to download them on your iPad via the Purchased tab in the App Store app - you may need to tap the 'iPad Apps' button at the top left of that screen and select 'iPhone Apps' instead.
Or if you have on your computer's iTunes you can connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar (on iTunes 11 you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC) and then use the Apps tab on the right-hand side of iTunes to select and sync them to your iPad.

An iphone app dealer keeps taking over my phone.

King.com Unlimited keeps forcing my iPhone to go to its Apple app-store app[s] page[s].They have several 'games' where they later persuade you to buy other features for their games.
How in heck can I prevent this ???? Is there a way to block it? Is my iPhone infected ?
I've never tried nor installed any of their games and am sick and tired of them taking over my phone, randomly, and frequently.
I can get off the page, but I'm seeing this/these pagepages far too mny times.

If it helps, my iSO is 7.1.1
It is an action from two events
1. using the kissanime streaming site. [which I can understand]
2. happens even when I'm not using the site. [but not as often, yet]
In the first case, I sometimes get an iPhone pop-up that asks me if I want to open the app page. it reads more like something wants to open an app page, do you agree ? More exactly like the pop-up says something can't open to the app store page, will I allow it?
I'll do a capture of it later and be more exact.
The times it just pops me over there when I'm not on that site nor using the browser are completely unexpected.
What I would prefer is that any such action acting upon my phone -always- asks the user if he/she/I will allow it.
It seems to be neccessary to prevent what I will think of as 'slimeware' forcing the iPhone to go to their app-store pages.
Since that requestor happens sometime, there should be a way to have it always be active; even if it requires an iSO update to have it be so. If I could make it always be active, I would consider the problem to be solved.

STOP PUSHING JUNK TO MY PHONE!

I agree with you. Unsolicited push to my phone is nothing less than spamming my phone and I deeply resent it!
Verizon never ASKED me if I wanted a "Free Trial Caller ID..." app! They just pushed it to my phone.
That's not what I bought the phone for and it's now what I pay monthly access fees for.
It's just abusive "marketing".
I LOATHE unsolicited marketing.
If I feel a need for an app, I'll go and search for it. I don't want to be deluged with unwanted "we thought you'd be interested" crap.
Truly,
Bill

There are unlocked phones free of carrier specific applications. There just fine on the GSM carriers they are designed for. You can choose to purchase those devices and use those carriers. No one here can stop you from making such a choice.

IPhone Apps Stop Responding

I frequently have issues with apps on iPhone 6 freezing. I have to shut the phone down and restart it. One example is the Messages app. I have done a complete reset of the phone and issues persist. Very disappointed with this phone. Do you have any suggestions for how to resolve this?

Here I am to save the day beauxzeaux! May I ask how much total device memory and available device memory do you have? Also, the device freezes only when you are in the messaging app? If so, I suggest deleting some of the long text message threads, reboot, and retest. If the total available device memory is low then you may want to delete some media from the device. A great way to supplement your storage is with Verizon Cloud. If you have the More Everything plan plan than you get 25GB of Verizon Cloud storage for free. How awesome is that!
Thank you…

HT1349 is it possible to track an Iphone4 , without the find my iphone apps

Is this possible to track iphone 4 without find my iphone application

Yes, the "Find my iPhone" app does nothing to help a phone to be locatable - it is for locating another phone from yours.
As long as you setup and activated the Find my iPhone service, the phone has power and a network connection and Location Services is turned on and the phone has not been restored, you should be able to track it.
If not, then you cannot track your phone.

I lost my iphone, and someone format it, can i still use find my iphone app to look up my iphone

i lost my iphone, and someone format it, can i still use find m
y iphone app to look. Up my phone?

If it has been wiped clean then you will not be able to locate it, it will be essentially a new iPhone.

What does it mean when a lost phone stops showing up on device list on find iPhone app?

What does it mean when a lost iPhone stops showing up in device list on find iPhone app?

That means:
The battery is dead
The phone has been turned off
The phone is no longer connected to the cellular network or a WiFi network
The Find my iPhone service has been turned off
The phone has been wiped.
The bottom line is, it means you're probably never going to be able to locate it unless you can physically find it.

My speaker on my iPhone 4s stopped working. I can't hear my phone ringing, music, apps or use the speaker when having a call. I can still make and take calls when I see them calling but can't hear the phone ring.

This afternoon my speaker on my phone stopped working. I can not hear it ringing when someone call, but if I see someone calling and I answer the call they can hear me and I can hear them fine. I also can't not put the caller on speaker at all , I also can't hear my music or gaming apps. When I turn my phone on or off it does not make a sound as well. I have turned the phone off and turned it off by pressing the top button and home button at the same time and that did not work. I checked the volume and the mute button and the volume is up all the way. I don't know what else to do can you please help me?

I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s. Usually the solution is one of the following:
1- If your volume indicator says headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
Hope one of these works for you

How can I get my iPhone to stop promting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I've checked settings for iTunes

How can I get my iPhone 6 to stop prompting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I have verified in settings that my acct is listed in itunes & App Store, as well as icloud. i can download new apps fine. Have shut down phone and re-powered, have tried plugging into my iMac while signed into my iTunes acct. Can't figure out what to do next?

Is the comp a synced device to your apple ID and approved as an active device for this synchronization?
Just cloud the sync once, activate the comp to your apple I'd in iTunes, ensure all software is up to date, turn on home sharing between the devices and you can reinstall the apps from the apple id purchase history via download.
You basically cleaned out the canonical data apple uses to validate all that, which was backup data. Like iOS devices have the purchased option on the App Store now, syncing the devices via the home sharing and properly activating them will give your comp the purchased cloud and free up 10gs of space on the precious solid states smaller drives.
Hope that helps...
If you need to know the menu to find this info, let me know. But the info is easily accessible in the help menu.

IPhone 4 Apps stop working after sync

Everytime I sync my I phone my downloaded apps will not open. I can correct this by downloading another App but that is a pain. I want to be able to sync my iPhone and not have my app stop working.

I've just noticed the 'more like this' section on the right with similar problems and it appears to be a common problem with iTunes not being authorised so I have now done that and hopefully it'll be fine now. I just opened iTunes then went to store-authorise this computer.

After installing version 5 upgrade to my Iphone 4 all the apps stopped working.

After installing version 5 upgrade to my Iphone 4 all the apps stopped working and I cannot reinstall them at the Appstore giving me a message that I have already purchased them. I can see all the apps, click on them, but none of them will open. How can I make them work again, since the Appstore will not allow me to reinstall the apps? The only apps that are working are the ones pre-installed by the upgrade.

Try downloading any free app using the App Store on the phone.
