  • How do I remove App Icons from iPad air

    Hi ,I recently have bought an Ipad air,and want to remove some old app icons that have come through from an i pod touch I have?
    Lots of discussion for removing apps once downloaded,but none say how to remove icons on apps page that are redundant.
    Help please.

    You left out a very important fact in your first post...you are seeing this in the App Store, correct? I was assuming you were just at your iPad's home screen and trying to delete the Apps.
    The list you see in the App Store in regards to updates that you've downloaded is a list that cannot be modified nor changed. It's simply meant as an informative list of any updates you've downloaded and when the update was installed. The list will start dropping these updates off after a couple of weeks or so.

  • Can't remove App Icon

    I'm brand new to iPad (don't even have a smart phone).
    One of the Apps I tried to download didn't work or finish.
    The icon says "waiting" and it's a blank box. I can't remove it.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for any help you can give.

    I encountered similar problem too. Turning off and on doesn't solve it.
    You mentioned about resetting. IS it just a re-boot or a hard reset (where the phone restore to factory settings)? Is a re-boot different from turning off and on the iPad?

    If you turn off the iPad (press sleep/wake button until power down slider appears) and restart it the wayward icon should go away.
    You may also be able to eliminate the icon by resetting the iPad (press sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears).

  • How do you remove deleted apps icons in App Store in purchased area?

    How do you remove deleted apps icons in App Store in purchased area?

    You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, but you should be able to hide them from the Purchased tab via your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If your iPad is on iOS 7 then after hiding them on your computer you may need to log out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in for them to be hidden from the Purchased tab

  • Can Apple technical guys help me removing the "waiting" app icon?

    My IPhone4's system is ios4.1.
    My scenario (WIFI enabled):
    1. open app store and select an app to install.
    2. the wifi disconnected, so I open my computer to download this same app from itunes
    3. connect IPhone to computer and sync, successed
    4. open my IPhone, the app icon still displayed "waiting..."
    After searching the solutions on google, got that most of the users will remove such icon by hard shut down IPhone and power on again.
    But for me, this solution does not work. And everytime I open app store on the IPhone, this app will be displayed "INSTALLED" already.
    How can I remove this stupid icon? Can I delete some files on IPhone directly to remove this icon?
    Any suggestion is appreciate, thanks!

    If you know what this app is this is what has worked for me:
    Uninstall the app and Sync your phone. Then add the app back again.
    For example: This happened when I downloaded Scrabble. So I unchecked Scrabble and synced my phone. Then I checked it again and synced again. Once I did that the Waiting box disappeared.
    This seems to be happening every time I try to download an app directly to my phone now, though. Even if the Wi-Fi connection is good. It's getting frustrating.

    Try to Authorize your computer before syncing Apps. You'll find that option on the menu "Store".

  • Remove private app icon from menu bar in Lion

    I would like to remove a private app icon from the menu bar to prevent access to this app from the desktop.

    I downloaded AirPlayIt yesterday from the app store.  It was on my iPad yesterday.  Today, however, the app icon does not appear on my home screen.  When I go into apps it is there but it doesn't have an "Open" choice.  There is only a cloud with an arrow pointing down.  When I click on the app it pops up but there is no open button.  How can I remove it?  Tapping it won't work as it isn't on my home screen.

    You'll have to contact the developer about this. Apple doesn't make this app;

  • How can I remove apps from my iPad

    How can I remove apps from my iPad? It does not have the little "x" option on the iPad like the iPhones.

    It works just the same as an iPhone. A long hold on an icon will cause them all to start wobbling, drag to move around or tap the X to remove.You can't remove any of the built-in apps so these won't get an X to tap.

  • How to remove apps in iOS 5?

    How to remove apps in iOS 5? I press and hold an Icon like would in iOS4 it starts shaking but x mark does not appear to delete.

    @ Artakv
    Check that you haven't enabled Restrictions, you can turn toggle the ability to delete apps through there.
    Goto:
    Settings
    General
    Restrictions
    Enter your Restrictions Passcode
    Scroll down and check to see if Deleting Apps has been enabled (On - so can delete) or disabled (Off - so CAN'T delete).

  • Can no longer get weather app icons on Macbook Air.

    I can no longer see my weather network app icons. However I did not remove this app. It is showing in my applications folder. If I try to trash it, it tells me I cannot because the app is open. When I go to App store to download it again, it tells me it is already installed. The only change I made was a recent clean up to free space on my hard drive, but I did not (wittingly) remove this app.
    Any ideas/suggestions?
    Thanks,

    Look in the headphone output, is there a red light?
    If so, try plugging and unplugging your headphones, also try a different set of headphones,all the jacks are noe exzctly the the same size, if there is a red light it means the MBP is in digital mode. You can try rebooting with headphones plugged in, or cut the end off a Q tip and GENTly insert it in the headphone jack and GENTLY "massage" it, stop at he least bit of resistance, this will some times free up the the micro switch that does the digital thing.

  • My instagram app icon on my iphone 4 is missing. When I go to the app store and try to reinstall it, it says open. When i search for it on my phone it can't find it? What should I do?

    My instagram app icon on my iphone 4 is missing. When I go to the app store and try to reinstall it, it says open. When I search for it on my phone it can't find it? What should I do?

    Make sure your phone is connected to the computer and iTunes is open
    1. Visit Instagram.com from your computer web browser
    2. Click "Download in the app store"
    3. It will download and show up in your iTunes
    4. Highlight and sync the app to your iPhone (note: it will not show up on your phone, even after it says syncing is complete).
    5. In iTunes, select the Instagram icon and click "Remove" or "Uninstall"
    6. Click Accept and Uninstall when it asks you to confirm as it will remove instagram and its data from your iPhone
    7. Disconnect the phone from the computer
    8. Manually reboot the phone after exiting all apps
    9. Upon re-start, you will be able to access the app in the App Store, and install it

  • Not able to delete app icons that are in loading stage and more than 20mb, so cant be loaded completely.

    I am not able to delete the app icon (loading) of more than 20MB file app.
    I have downloaded them to my itunes but they just dont go away even after syncronising.
    just to mention i have 3G network but no wifi at present.

    Try resetting the iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears and see if the loading icon is still there.
    If that doesn't work, try deleting the app from the iPad and then sync it again. Delete the app by syncing with iTunes and deselect the app.
    While your iPad is connected to your computer and iTunes is running, select your iPad on the left side bar, click on the apps tab in the iTunes window on the right, Uncheck the box next to the name of the app and then sync (click on apply) to remove the app from the iPad. Restart the iPad - hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears, then slide to shut down, hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears to start up.
    Then connect the iPad to the computer again and go through the same process except this time select the app and click on apply to put it back onto the iPad.
    See if that doesn't remove the loading icon.

  • What is the meaning, or significance, of the greyed out word "installed" next to the iBooks app icon in the iTunes list of apps on my new iPhone6, or slightly older iPad mini, retina display?

    What is the meaning, or significance, of the greyed out word “installed” next to the iBooks app icon in the iTunes lists of apps on my new iPhone6, or slightly older iPad mini, retina display?  Both devices have iOS8.0.2 installed.  Both are having problems downloading some books that had been purchased previously for other devices.  And, before installing iOS8, the full list of had been downloaded to the iPad mini with iOS7.
      Finding out what the greyed outness means may help me figure out how to get all my books loaded on both devices.  Any suggestions how to do that also would be appreciated.

    Thank you.  Your explanation of why the word "installed" is greyed out makes sense.  But that raises the further question of why then is it shown at all.  There are other apps on both devices that can not be removed,and they are just not shown.  This is the only app that has the greyed out "install" notation.  All of the other apps shown are either identified by "remove" meaning it is installed and can be removed; "install" meaning it is not installed but can be; or "update" meaning it has been replaced by a more current version which can be installed.
    All of the books that I want to install have been on an iPhone4 that was replaced by the iPhone6, and were on the iPad Mini with iOS7 before iOS8 was installed.  Installation of iOS8 on the iPad removed all of the books and only a few of them were later added by syncing with iTunes.  Since most of the books I am interested in are free or of small cost, I would be happy to delete all of them from iTunes and then reinstall the ones I want directly on the devices.  But I have not been able to delete them and when I try to install them on a device I am told that they already have been downloaded.  Very frustrating.
