Removing Newsstand from the iPhone

Hello,
I was wondering if someone had a solution to deleting the newsstand icon on the iPhone or at least moving it to the Utilities folder (out of site out of mind sort of thing). I mean there are a lot of people who would like to get rid of this, just search the Internet. There are also many suggested solutions to removing it, but none of them seem to work. It’s possible they did work at one point, but after iOS updates the solution no longer worked.
Anyway, I know as of right now there really isn’t a solution to do this, other than constantly moving it to the end of all your icons. I guess I don’t know why Apple insists on forcing this icon and not allowing for it to at least be moved in a folder with the other stuff. I was hoping that other people will read this and post a comment saying something along the lines that they too wish there was a solution. Maybe if this topic gets enough posts Apple will consider doing something with it.
Thanks,
Chris

I know it can't be deleted and that it is a native app that came with the phone, but why should it be kept if it is never used? Else, at least allow it to be part of the settings where you can turn it on and off when you want, like the Nike app that is a native app as well. If you go into the settings you can turn it on, it will then go on your desktop. You can also move it to another folder after it is on your desktop. If you don't want it, you can go into the OS settings and turn it off, it will then be removed again. They should do something like this for newsstand, allow it to be turned on or off if it isn't needed/wanted, or be moved to another folder such as utilities.

HT4623 how do you remove podcasts from the iPhone menu?

I subscribed to a podcast on the iPhone, (from the iPhone itself) but now can't seem to remove it. Any ideas? There doesn't seem to be a way
to unsubscribe from the podcasts on the iPhone or from iTunes.
I have all the latest software.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks - but there are no episodes of the podcast itself. It is the tile from the store that is clogging up space. The podcasts themselves can be deleted - that's easy - but the subscription tile cannot - even though I am not subscribed anymore.
The podcasts are not on my syncing computer's iTunes either, so can't be removed that way either.

Removing calenders from the iphone! (Extra calenders that is)

First, let me state that I created a couple of calenders on my mac account and decided when it came to trying to program dates on my iphone things got mixed up. So I went to just one calender and said forget about multiple calenders for publishing and all that.
1) I removed all the extra calenders from my mac account and ical calender on my desktop. I then noticed my iphone would not recorrect itself by removing the extra calenders. It doesn't even neccesarily update contacts quickly.
2) Go into settings>mail,contact,calenders>Under Accounts choose mail,contacts,calenders. Then turn off the calenders account. Click the stop syncing button. Back out and then go back in and turn on the button and then the sync button.
3) Go check the calender and see if it worked. It did for me. If not I maybe able to add one more thing to this that a tech had me do to iTunes before hand.

That list includes all the apps that you installed to your device directly from iTunes on the computer, or which were purchased on the iOS device and subsequently transferred to iTunes on the computer.
If you right click on any item in that list and choose "Show in Windows Explorer" it will open your iTunes application installer directory on your computer, which should be:
C:\Users\User\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications
In there are all your saved application installers (*.ipa files). You need to delete those actual installer bundles and then make sure to NOT allow the "transfer purchased content" when you sync or backup in iTunes (as that will just put them back on your hard drive).
One caveat to removing those, is that if you ever wish to keep a specific release of a particular app, and the developer replaces the iTunes/App store version with something else, your sole source for your older version will be your own stored copy of it. So for example, when PDF expert released their iOS 7 update, and charged everyone full price for it, if you wished to keep using the previous version on your own devices, then you needed to keep a copy of the installer on your own computer as that older version is no longer available in the store front.

All the photographs stored on my computer ended up getting put on my iPhone. How can I remove them from the iPhone?

Photos synced to your phone can only be removed from your phone the same way they got there, through the iTunes sync process. Connect your phone, iTunes running, & under the photos tab remove the checks for all albums/folders you do not want on your phone. Hit the apply/sync button & they will be removed from your phone.

Remove iCloud from old iphone

How do I remove iCloud from the iPhone I gave to my sister?
Thanks!

Have her erase the phone by going to Settings>General>Reset and tapping Erase All Content and Settings. She will need the password for your iCloud ID in order to do this. Or, you can do erase it remotely using Find My iPhone on icloud.com. This will remove your account and allow her to set up the phone as a new iPhone.

Hi asims01,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The information below may be able to answer your questions about how to delete songs from your iPhone:
Deleting songs downloaded to your device
Tap the Music app.
Tap More > Songs at the bottom.
Scroll or search for the song you would like to delete from your device.
Swipe right to left on the song, and then tap Delete.
Note: You must be in Artists, Songs, or Albums view to delete songs from your device. Deleting from a playlist won't remove a song from your iOS device.
Also, this information can be found on page 64 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
If you have iOS 7, this will delete the song from local storage, but the song will still appear with a cloud symbol in the Music app, as you've noticed. To hide the iTunes in the Cloud purchases, navigate to Settings > iTunes & App Store, and disable "Show All: Music”
There may be a few orphaned songs on your iPhone that were partially downloaded or corrupted in some way. If that is the case, you can erase all of the music from your phone. Follow the instructions below and select the Music app under Usage:
iPhone, iPad, and iPod: Understanding capacity

I hope this information helps ....

You can turn iMessage off on your iPhone. That's relatively easy. Since iMessage is an Apple product/service, I have no idea how a Samsung phone will deal with an incoming one. For that answer you should probably contact Samsung support.

How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone

How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone but I cannot see a way to remove any of it

If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up.
You should have a look in:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
/Library/Extensions
You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple.

I want to put my sim card from my iPhone 4 into a family members iPhone 4s. We have both backed up our phones to our computers. I don't want his contacts listed on the phone while I use it, just mine. How do I remove them off the iPhone 4s.

I want to put my sim card from my iPhone 4 into my husbands iPhone 4s, which he is not using. We have both backed up our phones on to our own computers. I don't want his contacts left on the phone while I use it. How do I remove his info including music, photos etc from the iPhone 4s before I insert my own sim card.

You do realize that the SIM only contains account information for your wireless account.
Moving the SIM from phone to phone does not cause any of your iTunes content, contacts, email, etc to magically appear on the device.

The first time I synced my iphone 4 with my mac, I didn't realize that all of my photos from the iphoto library would transfer over to the phone (more than 3,000). Now, I need to remove some, as they are taking up too much space. I cannot figure out how to remove them from the phone. I tried to uncheck boxes and sync again, but I get a message that there is no room on the iphone. I've read as many articles as I can find, but still cannot manage this. Thanks for any help.

How do i remove the home calandar from the iphone

I know the home calendar comes from the calendar on my MAC but I want to remove it from both my computer and my phone. I use on the google calandar and have no use for the apple home calendar.

Remove it from iCal. Since the only way it can get to the iPhone is by syncing it from iCal, that will remove it from the phone as well. If you don't intend to use iCal to sync with the phone, just shut off the calendar sync in iTunes on the info page for the phone.

Why has the Facetime application been removed from the iphone in dubai.

Why has the Facetime application been removed from the iphone in dubai??

You will have to contact the government to find out why they ordered it removed. An iPhone purchased there can never have it added back in, even in a country where FaceTime is legal.

HT4865 I don't have enough storage space on my iPhone 4S to download the new OS7 so how do I save it to iCloud and remove it from my iPhone to make room but not loose the deleted stuff from iCloud?

I don't have enough storage space on my iPhone 4S to download the new OS7 so how do I save it to iCloud and remove it from my iPhone to make room but not loose the deleted stuff from iCloud?

You can't use iCloud like that. It isn't a general file storage service; it's designed to sync data across your devices.
Some options are to sync all your music or other media off your device, then sync it back on after you update. Another is to import your photos to your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), then sync them back to your phone after you update by putting them in a folder, then selecting the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.
