TS1702 how do i completely remove an app from iTunes

Every time I start iTunes all apps are downloading . When I remove them and delete them,  next time I start iTunes they start downloading again.How can I stop these apps downloading again and again?  Garry Rogers

Hello korkyk,
Thank you for providing all the details of the issue you are experiencing.  I found some steps you can take.
To delete the app from iTunes, follow these steps without your iPhone connected to the computer:
Apps>Mac or PC
Before you delete, find out if you'll be able to download the app you deleted again (it depends on where you live).
Launch iTunes.
From the Library pop-up menu, choose Apps.
Click the app you want to delete.
Press the Delete on your keyboard.

You won't be able to delete the purchase from the Apple ID, but you can hide the purchase:
To hide your purchases
Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
Go to the iTunes Store.
Click Purchased from the Quick Links section on the right side of the iTunes Store.
Choose a content type by clicking on Music, TV Shows, Apps, or Books from top.
Hover your cursor over the item you want to hide.
You will see an "X" either to the right or left top corner of the item.
Click the "X" to hide that item. A confirmation dialog will appear once you click the "X."

  • TS1702 How do you permanently delete purchased apps from itunes?

    How do I permanently delete purchased apps from itunes on my iphone?

    I have spent a good part of my evening trying to figure this out then finally found this page which confirms what I was thinking... It doesn't appear possible! ARHHHH!!! There are loads of posts saying how you can do this, when what they appear to be describing is how to remove the apps from their iphone/ipad and not actually from the list of every app you have ever installed which appears when you go into the "Apps Store" > Updates > Not on this iPhone.
    It would be really nice to be able to remove programs from this list as I am sure I am not the only person who over the years have installed some apps which where not very good and I don't want to be reminded of them or to ever see them again quite frankly.
    I can do this very easily from my Android phone in Google Play which is Google's version of the App Store.
    I think things like this remind me why I prefer the ease of use of my Android phone... Ho hum! Maybe one day some geeks at Apple will realise that this would actually be a really useful thing to be able to do and enable it.

  • How can I completely remove my App Store purchases ?

    How can I completely remove my App Store purchases ? I delete certain apps from the iPod but they still are listed under 'purchased apps'.
    I need to completely remove then from history as well

    You can't permanently delete any items from you purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show in the Purchased tab for re-downloading : hiding and unhiding.

  • How do I completely remove an iPhone from my iTunes account

    How do I completely remove an iPhone from my iTunes account, I have removed my ex's iPhone from the device list but I keep getting notifications saying that her phone is now using FaceTime and iMessage, I have changed my password as well

    If she is using the same iCloud account you can sign into iCloud.com > Find my Phone > Devices > select her phone and wipe it only if she had Find my Phone enabled in the iCloud settings on the phone.
    Otherwise, you will need to contact her.
    She needs to sign out on the phone.
    Settings > iMessage > Send & Recieve > Apple ID  > Sign out
    Settings > FaceTime > Apple ID  > Sign ut
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID > Sign out
    If she is using the same iCloud account too then:
    Settings > iCloud > Delete Account

    How do I pernamantly remove an app from my iPhone 4 ?

    Depends on the app. Built in apps - Safari, Music, itunes, etc. - can't be removed. Apps you have downloaded can be deleted by tapping and holding on any app icon, then taping the X to delete.

    How can I completely delete an app from my Macbook Pro?

    For programs that do not require an Administrator's password to install on your Mac, drag its program icon to the Trash. For those that require a password, research its developer's website or other support options for specific uninstallation instructions.
    Never use all-purpose "cleaners" or "zappers" or similarly named clever utilities to uninstall anything.

  • How do you COMPLETELY remove EVERYTHING "googled" from your system?

    Help please....
        How do you  COMPLETELY remove EVERYTHING "google" from you're system PLEASE  !

    I think I finally got rid of it.  I searched drive C for "beats" and "beat" and erased all of them that appeared to be related to Beats Audio.  I had to do that three times, each time deleting any Beats files tht showed up in a search.  Finally, after the third boot, nothing showed up in the search.  My audio is working just fine, and no more Beats Audio.  I imagine I could still run Beats through the motherboard but, as long as i don't try to run Beats, it's no longer automatically loading at boot.
    Thanks for your time.

  • How do I completely remove Open Office from my laptop?

    The long story on this is, I needed a word processing program. I'm creating a song list book for Karaoke.  The karaoke software that I use will generate a song book as I Import songs to my hard drive. Well I went to Open Office website and downloaded their free shareware.  What a mistake that was...  My Question is how do i completely remove Open Office from my laptop?  Any help or Ideas would be great.  I did the usual steps of going through the control panel and uninstalled that software.  But it's still on my system.  I'm not a computer geek, and I'm I T challanged. LOL.
    Any Ideas Thanks

    Go to your Control panel and then look at "Programs" and click on Uninstall programs and from there scroll down to the Open Office program and click on it and uninstall it.
    Or see this GUI link...

  • HT4314 How do you completely remove "Game Center" from an iPad?

    How do you completely remove “Game Center” from an iPad? Disabling Game Center is a joke because even after you disable it, it continues to reappear frequently prior to your game and “Demands” your attention before it allows you to play your game, this is very annoying. Also, if you are off the grid (e.g.: OCONUS) with no connectivity and the “Game Center” pops up you are blocked from playing your game(s) entirely with no recourse to include being blocked from doing the Game Center multiscreen dance of Canceling and finally Disabling Game Center (yup, they have a button for it on one of the last popup screens But that button to Disable it is completely ineffective because Game Center will still reappear in a day or so). Kindly note that I play single player games like solitaire that should not require the Game Center and some apple tech agree. Apple support techs also have not been helpful with my “Case” number. And no, under the General Settings even when you switch off both Game Center toggles it still overrides them et al. I bought this iPad because it looked like something fun to do and it is BUT I ignored the warnings that it would be a socially invasive toy with a forced unalterable protocol; next time should I listen more closely? Thanks for any understanding and assistance.
    Device: iPad 3G (iPad3,2)
    iOS version: 6.1.2

    Let apple know how you feel

    beyond that your only recourse is to look for games that are not game center games and only use those. The ability to disable game center was removed with iOS6 I believe. All you can do is block multiplayer games and game invites. Everything else is unalterable.

    Will that also delete it from iCloud?  I have free versions of apps, which I liked so much I subsequently bought the full version, so I no longer have any reason to keep the free ones.

  • How do I completely remove a background from an image & keep it as a .jpeg?

    Hi , I already know how to remove backgrounds from images, and create a transparent background.  However, I need to be able to use the resulting image in another program  called Scratch.  And as far as I know, it does not accept  .tiff, .pgn, .psd or gifs.
    How do I completely remove that background so that it doesn't show up white in other programs when I save it as a .jpeg?

    Jpgs don't support transparency.  It looks like Scratch may support pngs and other formats, but the transparency may not come through.  From what I've read, you may have to use the transparency brush in Scratch to achive what you want.
