No apps home screen, please.

I, for a moment, had a very nice home screen free of any apps whatsoever. That is until I downloaded another app then my clean, app free home screen was replaced with what was on page 2 screen. Full of apps...
What I had done to get all the default app off home screen was to create and move all to a folder then position it down to the bottom bar. It worked nicely until...
I'd like very much to have zero apps on my home screen. I've got a beautiful photo I don't want cluttered by apps. Kind of like my desktop Mac with all the icons stashed into one folder.
How can I get back my clean, app-free home screen? It really was cool for me.
Thanks!

Niners, too

I guess I fooled the iOS for a short time.
It reall was pretty cool and it mimicked my iMac desktop. I got the idea of well, if you can't move the default app icons to other pages, then why not put them all in a folder and place them down on the navigation bar ( new iPad and don't know the name of the bar on the bottom).
It was worth a try. At least while it lasted it was a clean home screen.
I would like to have that particular option in the future. It do understand that to some it is counterintuitive. But to me, it wouldn't even matter if I had a last page with no apps just to have a app free page. Kind of like a picture functional picture frame.
Thanks.

When I try to copy paste my app freezes and returns to the home screen please help.

Try resetting ...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that didn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Then restart your iPhone.

CC app home screen won't load

When I start the CC app on my PC (Windows 7, 64 bit), the home screen won't load. The activity indicator just sits there and spins. It worked before, but not for the last few days. The other screens work just fine. Any ideas?
Thanks,

Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

Hi my iPod touch is glitching, as of yeterday. Everytime I open an app (except safari, music or camera) it flashes the app an ten goes straight back to home screen. I recenty updated when I connected to iTunes, but it shouldn't do that. Help please? :)

I guess it's all in the question really. But yeah, when I press on an app on the home screen, it opens for a fraction of a second and then closes again, just a flash, and it's starting to irk me. Thanks for any advice :)

- Try a reset. Nothing is lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Download/install any new app.

I have a very strange home screen app glitch; can someone please take some time to read this because I am stuck!

I truly thank anyone who reads this and offers any suggestions.
I went to the App Store on my iPod touch 4th generation (6.0.1) and downloaded an app. Then I went back to the home screen to move the app inside a folder. I did this while the app was downloading. I held down the icons and they began to wiggle. As I dragged the app icon over the folder, the screen froze, then went through a bunch of random whatever. Now, suddenly, I have two copies of the same app, one of which is ready to use, and one that has the "Installing" bar full. I can't delete either of them. Is there ANY way to fix this without restoring? Thanks so much for your help.

Yes.a reset does not erase any data. I always do that when my ipad has a problem. Even apple says it before you go to the genius bar.
You never know how a reset and just fix one simple thing.

Help w/ fixing my broken ipod touch. I have to double click on an app in order to open it, can't leave the home screen, apps don't work!

I'm not sure what happened, but I can't leave my home screen unless I press n hold an app and move it to another page, then when i press the home button so the apps stop shaking I can stay on another page. Other than doing it that way I can't scroll from one page to another. When I click on an app a thin box appears around it, not only with apps but when I click on the time or battery or ANYTHING! In order for me to open any of the apps I have to double click on it and then when it opens I can't do anything in the app. Even when I went to settings to see if there was something in there to fix this problem I can't go anywhere or do anything. Someone please help!!!

Im having this same problem an my phone is about 3 weeks old. I am not sure about the voice over part though...I have not yet figured out how to work the voice recognition part of the phone...I am such a newbie with this phone. I did the power off/on suggestion, several times. I tried leaving it off for 10 minutes. Tried to reset with the power on/off and home button pressed at the same time. Charged battery. Still makes no difference. You cannot scroll any direction. Have to double click to open apps. Have to double click letters when texting or emailing in order to get the letter in the text box. Can scroll through app choices, have to click on the line with the dots in it and move from page to page. Can't access the settings - > general - > accessibility - because it won't allow me to scroll down to "general".
Anyone help you with your fix yet?

When I download a new app from the App Store it does not show up on my home screen but I can find it in my settings but out from it says no data

When I download a new app from App Store and press open when it's complete, it won't do anything, and when I look on my home screens it's nowhere to be found but if I go to settings and look under icloud and usage, I can find them but out from it says no data. I have tried deleting them and reinstalling but that's no working either... Please help me.. Thank you very much:)

Try resetting the phone. Push both the home and lock button at the same time until it goes off. Keep them pushed until the Apple logo come up...
Also, try deleting the app and downloading it again.

How to get torch home screen to just show no apps when menu bar is closed?

Please bear with me, I'm struggling with how to explain this ha ha!
On the torch homescreen, you touch the 'all' bar at the bottom to display the full menu. When you touch the bar again it closes the menu of apps.
When I first got the torch the menu, when closed, displayed just one row of 4 apps (SMS, browser etc) But I must've pressed something unknowingly or changed a setting so it showed no apps at all when i closed the menu. I preferred this as I like the home screen to just show the background on the phone and not look cluttered.
However it changed back recently and is now showing TWO rows of apps now not even just one! and can't for the life of me figure out how to change it back??
Thanks to anyone who helps!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Just touch and drag down to the bottom of the screen. You'll then see just the arrow ^ (You can adjust that way for 0 to 3 rows of icons.) Then, when you tap the bar with the arrow, you'll get your full screen of icons back.

How do I get my apps back on my home screen after iOS 7 update?

When I downloaded iOS 7 I could only access my apps from the search. I want the back on my home screen! Please help

No I do not have multiple pages. There are only two pages, and the second one only has two icons on it. My apps are only in the store, and I want them on the home screen.

No apps home screen, please.
