I got this app in the AppStore for free. When I put in my password to confirm my purchase, it made 2 app icons and one of them I could delete. But the other one I can't like it's an app that apple made? And it still says installing? How do I get rid it?!?

Please I don't want the app to waste gigabytes!!!

iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

Hello there philp_69,
If I understand correctly it sounds like your phone hasnt been recognized in iTunes on your PC since the last couple of updates. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article which will walk you through the steps one by one.

Just started getting intermittent error on my 3G:This accessory is not optimized for iPhone..." but nothing is connected or plugged in to it or anything?

Was just checking my iPhone and when I pressed the home button to wake it up the message "no sim installed" was on the screen, obviously it was so I restarted the phone, that cleared it but then I started intermittently getting a popup message "this accessory is not optimized for iPhone...(don't remember the rest), did a hard reset and still happening once in a while, there isn't anything plugged into or connected to my phone at all though, would appreciate any help or advice please

The most common reason for message "this accessory is not optimized for iPhone" with nothing plugged in, is dust, debris etc. in the iPhone dock port. Clean the dock port with a clean dry toothbrush. If the message returns again, clean the dock port again very carefully using some isopropyll alcohol, especially the pins which are on top of the dock mid rib.

Clean the iPhone dock port with a clean dry tooth brush. If the warning occurs again, clean the dock port very carefully and thoroughly with isopropyll alcohol, especially the pins which are on top of the dock mid rib. If still warning, then take iPhone to Apple for Warranty service.

How to deleted warning this accessory is not optimized for this iPhone

How to deleted warning "this accessory is not optimized for this phone"

You cannot delete it, it is a valid message.
The issue may be that the dock connector has dust/lint in it or the pins are bent. Try cleaing the connector with a soft dry brush.
This assumes that the "accessory" that is generating the message is optimized for iPhone.

Hello abyjohn,
I would be concerned too if the speaker on my iPhone was not working, and if I was getting a message about the accessory not being optimized. I found an article with some steps to take when you are experiencing issues like this.
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speaker

If you get this message when you are using a "Works with iPhone" accessory, make sure of the following:
Make sure the packaging for the product says "Works with iPhone" and not "Made for iPod".For more information about iPhone accessories and the difference between "Works with iPhone" and "Made for iPod' accessories click here.
The iPhone dock connector is free of any debris.
The "Works with iPhone" accessory's connector is free of debris.
The iPhone is securely connected to the accessory—that is, it is not sitting crookedly within an iPhone dock and making only partial connection.

HELP!! This accessory is not optimized for this iPhone. You may experience noise interference and a decrease in cellular signal strength

Ive seen loads of people with this issue and no luck.
Basically as of yesterday, The message
This accessory is not optimized for this iPhone. You may experience noise interference and a decrease in cellular signal strength"
appeared and wont go away. I have nit used my headphones for a month so i cant think of anything that has triggered it.
Solutions I have tried..
Making sure my phone isnt on mute.
Letting the power dye and re charging.
plugging in head phones etc.
Still no luck.
Model is iPhone 3GS 16GB.

My mum's phone had that message too. I googled it. Sometimes the connection becomes dirty due to dust, dirt, water or a combination of all three. It is recommended to clean out the connection using a clean, dry brush, like a paint brush.
It worked for her
I hope that this helps

TS2755 this accessory is not optimal for use with this iphone keeps popping up on my phone how do i stop it?

This accessory is not optimal for use with this iphone keeps popping up on my phone how do i stop it?

Can be caused by lint, dirt, or foreign material in the dock connector port and it doesn't take much.
Can also be caused by damage to the pins in the dock connector port including moisture damage.

This accessory is not optimized for this iphone - JBL on stage lllp

Hi,
i've got a problem with the iPhone 4 and the "JBL on stage lllp", the message "This accessory is not optimized for this iphone" appears after connecting it to the docking station. Only the battery is charging. After a reboot with "docked" iPhone it works fine till the next unplug and connect.
It sounds like a software problem to me.
Thank you for your help.
Sascha

iPhone 4s.
iOS 6.1.2
I also have this problem.
I'm sure I read that the iphone 4s was supported before I bought it??
My 3GS running 6.1.6 works fine docked into the JBL on stage lllp.
> After a reboot with "docked" iPhone it works fine till the next unplug and connect.
I didn't know about this...
Any one got any ideas or solutions?
Many thanks.

Accessory is not optimized for this iphone

I have iphone 4 and for almost a year I have used a Sylvania docking station to charge my phone at night and to also play my music through the speakers on it then all of the sudden I got the message "This accessory is not optimized for this iphone" I went to the apple store and they said I needed to update the latest software to my iphone. I did the update to OS5 and icloud which was a nightmare finally got everything restore and I still got this message when I try to dock my phone. I can use other ipods in it so whats going on any ideas ???

In the iPhone 4 and newer they built in some hardware checks. Official, authorised apple accessories have a bit of hardware which identifies themselves to the iphone. Non official units dont have this and thus the iPhone presents a 'nag' screen. It shouldnt stop it from working but its basically apples way of making you buy official stuff by nagging you.
If its started lately, it could be a problem with your docking station.

Error message is "this accessory is not optimized for this iphone" how can i delete the accessory? have an iphone3gs

I have same problem which drives me nuts - phone lights up in middle of the night and displays message every hour or so. Something is obviously not right and it's not dust on the connector.
