Is there a way to more quickly install apps?

Hello!
Is there a way to manage applications more like the music is managed?
I don't want to back-up my iPod every time I install an App; it takes forever.
Any tips or info appreciated.

You can choose which apps to sync in the Applications tab (in the same way that you choose which playlists to sync in the Music tab).
Alternatively, you can shut off the backups (if you are willing to take the risk of not having a recent one if you need to restore). You can do that by disabling them with a Terminal command, as described here; or with a tiny app written to run that command for you, which you can download here.
Hope this helps...

  • Is there a way I can still install apps from the Applications disc on Mavericks?

    A few weeks ago, I was installing a new SSD into a 2009 MBP. I reinstalled Snow Leopard from the disc that came with the computer and proceeded to upgrade to Mavericks. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to me, you cannot install the iLife applications (namely, iPhoto) from the Applications disc once you upgrade past Snow Leopard. Is there a way I can still install these applications without having to buy them through the app store?

    Pacifist may be able to do it - it does cost money

    Your question makes no sense and I'm not sure if you typed very quickly and autocorrect went nuts on you, or if you are not a native English speaker and Google Translate didn't work properly. If you are saying that you forgot the passcode to unlock the iPad, follow the instructions here.

    Not using Boot Camp, but you should be able to using virtualization software such as Parallels to run Windows concurrently with OS X.

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Is there any way I can re-install Vista?

    Hi,
    I bought an A200 a couple of years ago pre-installed with Vista Home Premium.
    Recently I got a virus and had to re-install windows which I tried unsuccessfully from the recovery disks I had made from the Toshiba recovery programme. After several attempts I decided to install Ubuntu 9.1 instead, which I have been happy with, however certain features, such as no sound through HDMI, have not worked so I would like to re-install Vista.
    I believe the install files for the pre-installed Vista are on a partition somewhere on my A200.
    Is there any way I can re-install Vista?
    Thanks

    Hi Sched7,
    There is no recovery partition on Toshiba notebooks. Only a folder with an image is stored on the second partition but as MisterX wrote, if this would be available its too late now since you installed Ubuntu
    In your case I would try the recovery disk again. I noticed also a problem with the disk after I had a virus. I had to wipe the whole HDD first by using Microsoft disk. After this I tried the recovery disk again on a clean HDD and it successful!!!
    In worst case you have to install Vista from a Microsoft disk. You can download all drivers and tools on the Toshiba website.

  • HT1338 I have MacBook with OS 10.5.8. Is there any way for me to install and run keynote on this machine? Do I need to upgrade OS and how? Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Keynote '09 is compatible with your computer, but you won't get the latest Keynote version running that version. As you have an Early 2008 MacBook, first I recommend you to update to Mac OS X Snow Leopard to get newer versions of all applications but without losing any applications > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Make a backup before upgrading.
    The DVD contains Mac OS X 10.6.3, so after upgrading, open  > Software Update to update to 10.6.8. Then, you will get access to the App Store.
    However, the Keynote version available in the App Store is only compatible with OS X 10.7.5 or newer, so now you have two options:
    1. Upgrade to OS X Lion and purchase Keynote from the App Store.
    2. Keep Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard, and buy Keynote on a DVD in eBay or Amazon. Note that you won't be running the most recent Keynote version, but it doesn't mind (the latest version only adds iCloud support)

  • Is there a way for the CC desktop app to recognize already installed software?

    Is there a way for the CC desktop app to recognize already  installed software? Initially the CC app had all my installed software  listed but since one of the patches it no longer  knows what I  have installed. I can still use everything but I'm worried I will  encounter issues if I am unable to change this situation. I have already looked through multiple discussions looking for an answer so if I have missed the solution my bad.

    Apple discontinued iWeb. That's the case for over a year now.
    Topics in this forum will tell you that in order to install iWeb you have to find a copy at eBay, Amazon and similar places.

  • Is there any way to get the server app other that through the app store. We do not have our system conneted to a network. I typical downloaded items on a non-apple system.

    is there any way to get the server app other than through the app store. The system that I need it on are not connected to the internet.
    We run a closed-loop network of apple systems and I tipically downloaded updates on a non-apple system that was on the internet.
    Any ideas?

    I did buy the server app, went to the app store to download it. This system I'm using for downloads is Snow Leopard 10.6.8, it shows that I can download it but only as an Install which says I need 10.8. I can't seem to find a way for it to just download as a package or .dmg file so that I can copy it to DVD/CD or flash drive.

  • I am running 10.7.5 on an imac and I want to upgrade to Yosemite but I have no app store on my computer. Is there a way I can get the app store on my imac?

    I am running 10.7.5 on an imac and I want to upgrade to Yosemite but I have no app store on my computer. Is there a way I can get the app store on my imac?

    If you don't have it then you will have to reinstall Lion:
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, or Yosemite
    OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it isthree times faster than wireless.
    Then you can download and install Yosemite if your computer meets the system requirements:
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.

  • HT3258 is there a way to still open the apps i legally purchased?

    is there a way to still open the apps i legally purchased? what if that company that wrote the softwear doesn't exists any more??

    No, you don't need to re-buy programs to get them to work.
    That said, some programs (including Parallels) need newer versions to be compatible with Mountain Lion.  So you may need to buy a Parallels upgrade for it to work.  You didn't mention the version you have but since only the latest Parallels version is compatible, you may need to pay in this specific case.
    Most other apps should run OK, if they're relatively recent.  You need to check with the vendors of those applications to see if they run on Mountain Lion or if they have an upgrade.
    Applications bought via the Mac App Store are pretty much all compatible with Mountain Lion.
