Is it possible to delete all the apps that arn't on my ipod from iTunes?

Hi i have many apps. And when i say many i mean 513 apps (i had atleast 700 at once but my 32gb ipod became full)
I was just wondering if it is possible to select all of the apps that are not on my ipod because i have deleted them and then delete them from iTunes but still keep the files.
I found one way were i would open up the list of apps in a new window, connect my ipod so it is not syncing and then scroll through the list on my ipod finding apps that dont have a tick them finding them in the apps library in the other windows and deleting them but this is taking AGES!
Is there a quicker way of selecting them and pressing delete but still keeping the files because i have a backup problem and need to remove all of the apps and i cannot be bothered to write down the ones i have ticked and the ones i dont have ticked when i can just remove the ones that arn't ticked then untick them all backup my ipod add 50 apps then back up again and then 50 more etc.
The reason i am backing up like this is because i have done it before because my backups for itunes always screw up and this fixed it last time but i had to go through the list of apps and select ones i want and ones i dont want.
PLZ HELP ME IT WOULD SAVE ME ALOT OF TIME!!
btw yes my ipod button is stuck i am thinking of using alcohol but i will have to talk to my dad before doing that

It sounds like a remote erase was sent via 'Find My Mac', to check please go to www.icloud.com and login. Is there any data there?
If it was a remote erase only someone who had the ID and password could have done it. And in that case the data is gone, it is not recoverable I'm afraid.

    You can hide them via your computer's iTunes : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
    The 'x' might not show on their top left corner (it might be invisible), but clicking where it should be should hide the app.

  • I lost all the apps that i downloaded using my ipod touch

    When i downloaded the newest update for my ipod all the apps that were on my ipod but not in itunes got deleted, i had about $100 worth of apps so is there any way to get them back?

    If you download an app that you have already paid for, you will get a message saying that you have already purchased it, and do you want to download it again for free.
    It looks like you're purchasing the app, but after you enter your password, you should see the message.
    Cheers!

  • How do i delete all the photos that are in that Photo app?   it is eating up all my memory

    how do i delete all the photos that are in that Photo app?   it is eating up all my memory

    Photos transferred from your computer are removed from the iPhone the same way they were transferred from your computer, via the iTunes sync process. To remove all such photos, deselect Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
    Photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera followed by deleting the photos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete.

  • Is there a way to find out all the apps that I've deleted on my iPhone? If so how?

    Is there a way to find out all the apps that I have deleted on my iPhone ? If so how?

    Thanks.

    What is iOS 5 ?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1521
    And does my iPhone 4 as that?
    Settings>>General>>About>>Version
    (Used my iTouch as example)
    And if it deos how can I see the apps that I've deleted ?
    App Store>>Updates>>Purchased
    Scroll through the list of apps that your purchased, and if you remember the apps that you delete, the search will be a lot easier.
    If you don't have iOS 5, you can update your iPhone and since you have an iPhone 4, you can only go up to iOS 6.1.3

  • Ihone 4s lost all contacts. I tried to restore from backup but the error message now says there is not enough room. I have deleted all the apps without making any more room on iphone. Why did contact disappear and how do I get them back?

    In the simplest sense, archiving a file means making a copy that you never change and never discard. You already know how to do that.
    iPhoto has built-in archival features, in the sense that it saves all versions of an image that you've modified. As long as you have adequate backups, you don't necessarily have any reason to archive an iPhoto library. If you want to delete images from the working library but still have access to them in case you change your mind, then you do need to archive those images. I don't have a specific suggestion as to how you should do that. You might post a question in the iPhoto forum.

    You can only sync with one ITunes library. It you switch iTunes library iTunes will erase the iPod and replace it contents with what is in the library of the new computer.

  • Shutting down my iPhone 4S no longer removes all the apps that have accumulated on the multitasking bar. What happened?

    Maybe I imagined it, but I could have sworn that holding down the home button and sleep button at the same time until the slider icon appears at the top of the screen, and then engaging the slider icon,  completely shuts down your iPhone and also removes all the apps that have accumulated in the multitasking bar.  But, that does not work anymore on my iPhone 4S running iOS 5.0.1 (9A405).  The iPhone shuts down, but the apps in the multitasking bar remain after you turn the phone back on.  Did I imagine this feature in the past, or has something happened that no longer enables this functionality?  Closing all those open apps in the multitasking bar one at a time is a PIA.

  • When i go to the app store to update the one app that needs to be updated, the screen is blank.  It used to list all the apps that need updating and have a button called update all.  Now nothing.  Just a blank screen.

    There's been a problem with this all day.  Seems to be a server problem  -  wait a day and try again, or use itunes on the computer to update, that works.

  • I have my boyfriend's apple ID and password, how do I check what apps he has on his phone? ( not all the apps that he had downloaded, but the ones that are actually on his phone). And How can I remotely download apps to his phone if I have his ID

    I have my boyfriend's apple ID and password, how do I check what apps he has on his phone? ( not all the apps that he had downloaded, but the ones that are actually on his phone). And How can I remotely download apps to his phone if I have his ID and PW?
    Thank you so much

    If you want seperate accounts for managing apps and purchasing content, basically yes, you need two account and would need to repurchase. However, if you just want seperate ID for iMessgae, icloud and such, you can do that and still continue sharing the same Id for apps and itunes.

  • I understand that many versions of any pictures are still on my computer (Masters???).  If I have a final I like, how do I delete all the others that are taking up space?

    I understand that many versions of any pictures are still on my computer (Masters???).  If I have a final I like, how do I delete all the others that are taking up space?  I have already put the originals into albums, edited them, and renamed them.  Can I/should I delete all other versions located in Masters, I think?  If I want to keep events, but want them to include the newly edited albums, can I delete the specific event and somehow bring the photos used in the album into a new event.  Understand iPhoto just keeps space or manages photos, so how can I have events that include the edited pix and clean up disk space.  Thanks.
    iPhoto 11 v9.4.2
    using Lion, updated, on iMac Pro.

    It's very simple. If you want to use iPhoto, just let it manage things as it does. Other than that: Export from iPhoto and delete the image from iPhoto. That will remove the master and all versions.
    If space is an issue... use an external disk.
    Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things, deleting them or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.

  • If i have one iPad and I want all the apps that are there how do I copy that so i can have them on another iPad the same way as i have them on the first iPad?

    if i have one iPad and I want all the apps that are there how do I copy that so i can have them on another iPad the same way as i have them on the first iPad?

    If you want both iPad to be identical .....
    Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    Now connect your iPad to your Mac and start iTunes.
    When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases.
    After it finishes transferring all your apps to the Mac, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    Sync the iPad and eject it when it is complete.
    Quit iTunes
    Connect the second iPad.
    Launch iTunes
    Right click on the iPad name on the left side and select - Restore from Backup
    Select the backup of the first iPad and let it restore from that backup.
    When it finishes restoring - sync with iTunes to transfer all of the apps and any other content that you want onto that iPad
    Eject the iPad when you are done.
    Check the second iPad and if all of the content did not sync as you wanted - or you want to remove some of the content - connect it again and then choose the content that you want - uncheck what you do not want - and click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.

  • How do i get all the apps that i had before upgrading my ipad

    how do i get all the apps that i had before upgrading my ipad

    Normally they're restored to your iPad right after the upgrade.
    If that didn't happen, you should find them in the App Store under Purchases.  Restore them, but do that one at a time.
    Or you can sync with iTunes on your computer, and they should be there.
