Latest blackberry playbook update installed an app that is not listed in My World

The newest update for the blackberry playbook was prompted to be installed.
I updated my playbook.
It powered off and restarted.
Now there is an app called Zinio listed on my 'desktop'.
I did not install this app. EVER.
So i figured i could 'uninstall' the app by going to 'my world' under the apps icon.
But it is NOT listed in My Apps.
How do i remove? Why is it there?
Solved!

it is a OS feature app, if you dont want it, press on teh icon for a few seconds till it pulses, then click on delete aka trashcan to remove it

  • How to delete an Update for an App that is not loaded on phone?

    I have an App Update for an application that is not (and has never been - to my knowledge) loaded on my phone!
    How do I get rid of this update?
    OR should I install it, or try to install and then delete the App. (if it loads).
    This update does NOT show on iTunes site when the phone is connected. (not sure if it would show updates anyway).
    It's a casino games application - so if I install and delete will I get inundated with unwanted gaming Apps?
    And why should I get an update for an App that is not loaded - is this a software glitch, or just speculation by the writers to get some money????
    This phone was pre-owned by family member, and all the updates to date have been for Apps that I have downloaded, during the year or so of my use.

    Hey darwinobambino,
    It seems like you are asking about how to delete some an album on your iPhone. If this album is one that you have downloaded, then you can use the following article to help you delete it:
    iCloud and iTunes Match - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphb8d9fd5a6
    Remove a song that’s been downloaded. Swipe left, then tap Delete. The song is removed from iPhone, but remains available from iCloud.
    View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.
    Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
    Regards,
    Braden

    How did you do that?  Do you mean you sync to iTunes that had the ipad library?
    The phone with the issue, settings - general - reset - erase all contents and settings - this will wipe the phone clean and then restore from your backup.

  • Mac App Store problem - I have an update for an app that do not exist in my Mac

    Hi, I have an update for an app that I never didn't bought before in my Mac App Store.
    Thats happen before more than a year, I tried everything including updating the app (got an error) and format the Mac but the update for this app didn't remove.
    the problem is maybe in my Apple account so I need your help, is there any way to remove this update?

    You may have installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store could prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app could be "Final Cut Pro." Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
              File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
              Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
              Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
              Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    3. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    4. At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    5. Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
    If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

  • CC showing updates for CC apps that are NOT part of my subscription

    Ok,
    Aside from the massive annoyance with the duplicate versions (why didn't they just include both plugin system for a couple of versions?), I've got "updates" for apps that are NOT part of my CC subscription showing up.  I have a full suite of CS6 installed, but only the Photographers bundle for CC.  Yet I'm showing Illustrator and InDesign CC (2014) as available.  It also shows TWO lightroom 5's - one up to date, and one that needs an update.
    What gives?

    That still doesn't explain why I'm seeing two different lightroom installations in the CC list - one up to date, and one that's available.  I've previously installed/updated Lightroom through CC by the way.  But when I do run Lightroom it also prompts me to upgrade (which I haven't done either).  Something looks badly broken in the LR update process.
    And it doesn't address the available updates for applications (InDesign and Illustrator CS6) that aren't part of my CC subscription.  Since I'm now at the mercy of the CC licensing servers, I'm rather hesitant to risk corrupting my entitlements by doing anything until I understand why my entitlements are incorrect.
    Can you help me understand why they are incorrect?

  • HT1904 restricting apps that are NOT free

    I want to restrict my children from installing any apps that are NOT free. How do i do this? Do i have to restrict their Apple Store use in whole or is there something that will just deny them when they try

    Sorry, but there is no option to restrict downloading just to free apps. It would seem like a useful option, so you can suggest it to Apple via their feedback pages, if you wish:

  • HT4623 I want to install an app that requires iOS5 and my iphone is 4.2.6 How do I Update my software for my iphone 4?

    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.

  • I have an Ipad 2 and have about 20 apps that will not update, How can I delete these?

    I have some apps that will not update on my IPad 2.  They say they are installing, but Installing is grey..not black, and they have been like this for several weeks.  I cannot find out how to finish the updates or delete them.  Can someone suggest a solution?  Thanks, Ann

    You can only delete them one at a time on the iPad. If you have an IMAP email account, go to your email in on the server using a web browser and select as many as you can at a time and delete them that way. That action will be reflected on the iPad. In IMAP - whatever you do on one device syncs across all devices. If you have POP email - start deleting one at a time.

  • I updated my ipod and my computer crashed during the update now the apps that come with the ipod such as the app store and itunes are not on my ipod how do i fix this

    Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.

  • HT4623 i have done the update, but any apps that i have downloaded did not transfer.  where do i go to get them back on my homescreen?

    you need to go to APP STORE, Then click on Purchased and you will see all the program which u can download from iCloud. I hope u made an account otherwise u will need to install everything again. The most important when u install a new iOS is to backup all your files first and then u can proceed installing the new one.

  • 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.

    You'll have to contact the app developer for help with this.

  • After clearing cash on mac applications won't lunch any more..I tried to delete apps like VLC player with app cleaner and again download and instal new but it's the same..goes for all apps that are not originally part of Yosemite. Please advise me?!

    After clearing cash on my mac ( Go to folder: ~/Library/Caches and clear all, than to Library/Cashes and clear all again) applications won't lunch any more..I tried to delete apps like VLC player, firefox.. with app cleaner and again download and install the new one but it's the same..goes for all apps that are not originally part of Yosemite. I have done this cash clean up very often on Maverick without any problems. This time I done it again because I could not open my web site, the server has blocked me and I was trying everything including deleting cash from mac. Please advise me what to do..?!? Thanks in advance.

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

  • HT204266 i have several apps that are not updating, they are stuck saying "waiting"

    I have several apps that are not updating, they are stuck saying "waiting".

    Are you downloading music?
    Check by going to iTunes (on iDevice) > downloads and then remove the one that is trying to download, this will then make the others download and when they are finished, the apps will update/install

    To download/install an app directly to the iPod you need available storage equal to about three times the file download size. Syncing the app to the iPod requires a lot less. Thus you either have to free up more storage or sync the app from your computer.
