Removing apps from the cloud

How do I remove apps that are no longer supported from my account in the cloud??

Welcome to the Apple community RAVZB.
The apps are not actually in your iCloud storage, they are links to the apps in the App Store. What you are seeing is your purchase history and as such cannot be deleted.
You can however hide your purchases, which you can do from the QuickLinks > Purchased option from the main page in the iTunes Store on your computer.

    Heh, that can become a nuisance. Don't know how many you've accrued in your years of iGadget enjoyment, but I've managed to accumulate nearly 600, all free   So yeah, the list can get lengthy
    I'm afraid to count . I don't spend a lot time worry about it, but have on occassion gone in and hidden a few items. A handful of apps I know I never want to see again, plus some free music tracks that didn't pan out and some TV episodes that no longer have any value to me.

    Hey ktillis88,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, the following resource may be helpful:
    iCloud: Understanding Backup alert messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4576
    "Backups for appname cannot be turned off at this time."
    This message occurs if disabling Backup for an app on your iOS device does not complete successfully. Wait a few minutes and then attempt to disable Backup for the app again. If you continue to receive this alert, contact iCloud Support for assistance.
    Thanks,

  • How do i remove an app from the cloud so that I can install it fresh again on my iphone5s

    How do i remove an app from the cloud so that I can install it fresh again?

    Your apps are not stored in your icloud account.  You should be able to delete the app from the device using the wiggling icons and tap the X process and then downloading directly to device from the itunes store wirelessly.  Don't do it via iTunes on your computer where a copy of the app is stored.

  • How do I delete apps from the cloud as well as my device (iPhone 4 and iPad 2)

    To delete apps from a device press and hold any of the apps on the device's homescreen and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'.
    You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show in the Purchased links for redownloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 - with iOS 7, after hiding apps on my computer's iTunes I've been needing to log out of my account on my iPad and then log back for them to be hidden from the Purchased tab in the App Store app.
    If you need to permanently delete data from iPhone, My recommendation is iPhone Data Eraser, which can erase all data including contacts, messages, call history, apps, system setting, photo, video, keyboard cache, safari bookmark. Indeed, iPhone Data Eraser worth trusting and it makes the work more effective. What you need is a windows computer. One single click and data deletion finish. In addition, the program also works well with iPad and iPod Touch.

  • How do I remove items from the cloud without losing them permanently?

    My icloud storage is almost full. How do I remove items from the cloud and not lose them?

    What items?
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books do not use up your iCloud storage.
    See the link below for how to reduce the amount of storage you're using:

  • How do i remove music from the cloud

    Hi
    How do i remove music from the cloud which is showing on my i-phone

    You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, but you can hide items via your computer's iTunes so that they don't show : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If your tagline is wrong and your phone is on iOS 7 and you have music in the cloud showing in the Music app on your phone, then you can also turn that off via Settings > iTunes & App Store

  • How can I delete an app from the cloud??

    how can I delete an app from the cloud, so nobody can download it again to my phone?? please I tried from the computer but it just hide the app from purchased, and still appears in the app store with the cloud on it

    At the present time, you can't hide or delete an app from your purchased list on your phone.  Prior to iOS 6 you could hide it; there has never been an option to delete it.

    Are these purchased songs from iTunes?  If so they do not count against your cloud storage.

  • HT1766 How do I permanently delete the information of a single app from the Cloud? It only allows me to "Remove" or "Install".

    I have tried to delete the information associated with an App after I deleted it, but it stays in the Cloud and only allows me to either "Install" (back) or "Remove" (from the iPhone, but not from the Cloud)

    How do I remove an app from the cloud

    Hi Shawn,
    Since posting I too have seen all the discussion.
    I have found a way to get around my problem.
    The problem is that my 11 year old daughter has one of our old 3GS's as her first phone ready for going to her new school. She shares my iTunes account and can therefore see my purchased history on her iPhone. To stop her seeing any Apps in the cloud or films using home share which are not suitable for her 11 years I have enabled restriction on her phone and set the age limit. This works well as all the adult rated Apps, mainly games, do not show up in the purchase history on her phone.
    Regards
    Paul

  • How do I move an App from the cloud to my iPad?

    I downloaded an App (Houston Chronicle for iPad) and somehow I placed it on the Cloud instead of on my iPad. How do I move the App to my iPad?

    BTW, your apps remain in the "cloud" regardless of if you think you "moved" them. You cannot delete them from the cloud. They will remain there until:
    1. Apple removes it from the App Store for some reason
    2. The developer chooses to have it removed from the App Store for some reason

  • How do I remove apps from my cloud

    I wish to remove unwanted apps from my cloud account   Any ideas

    You can't delete them, but you can hide them from view:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    (They don't take up any of your iCloud storage space, so deleting them won't free up space, if that's the reason you wanted to delete them).

  • Can you remove apps from the icloud?

    I want to remove some of my apps from the icloud but I don't know if one can even do this.

    You can hide them in your purchase history. You can not delete them. The purchase history is a permanent record of what you've purchased.
