TS1702 I can no longer delete apps on my iPad

I can get apps to jiggle but no red x to delete?

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'

  • I've just discovered that with the newest version of iTunes you can no longer delete apps you don't want.  You used to be able to do so by connecting to to desktop computer and delete them.  Tech support said you can't delete apps anymore.  Not Good!

    I've just discovered that with the newest version of iTunes you can no longer delete iPod Touch/iPhone apps you don't want.  You used to be able to do so by going onto iTunes on your desktop computer and deleting them.   Not Good!  I just called tech support and they said that in this version there is no way to delete them. They also said there have been numerous complaints about this.  You can't even delete them from your applications folder.  It's as though you're being held hostage to apps you tried, but do not want.
    While we're on the subject, I don't like the fact the the iPod touch comes with unistalable apps such as: Passbook, Nike & iPod, Newsstand, and Game Center. Don't want them, will never use them.  Give customers the option to delete apps that we don't want.  Call Apple's corporate customer care. escalation, and complain untill they fix this.

    One of us must be wrong.

    After my last and latest upgrade to Iphone 5, i can no longer delete open app by tapping the home button twice, and then swiping off the screen.  In effect these apps are open and using data. This has only just occured since the upgrade to ios 7.1.1  After many attempts to press home button twice....nothing happens, and so app are open. Please advise? any answers?

    Hey there 111brownyn
    Go to Settings>General>Accessability>Assistive touch(in the bottom)
    and switch the toggle on. You'll find now a smaal square around your screen.
    Touch it aand perform the double click gesture with the virtual home button on the screen.
    I think your Home button has been damaged.
    Do let me know if it worked

  • I can no longer download apps on my iPad. Can I download ios 5?

    I'm not even sure what operating system I have but I can no longer update apps bc the ios requirement is too high....what can I do?

    If you are curious and you want to know what iOS you are running - go to Settings>General>About>Version.
    Also make sure that you transfer purchases into iTunes from your iPad via File>Transfer Purchases while the iPad is connected to your computer, with iTunes running and with your iPad selected. Also make sure that you backup your iPad  by right clicking on the iPad name under devices and selecting - Backup. Copy any important files to your computer as well before you update your iPad.

  • I can no longer delete apps on iPad 3

    My iPad 3 with iOS 8.1.3 seems to work ok but if I long press an app to delete the x shows up on all apps and then the icons just slowly pulse never showing the delete confirmation dialog. The only way out is to hard reset it. I'm not at home to restore for a few days yet. Anyone got any suggestions?  I've seen this posted elsewhere with no solution. It was this way with the last iOS version as well.

    Try going to settings> general> usage> storage> manage storage> look for the app and delete it from there.

    You might have better luck in the iTunes for Windows community. I'll ask the hosts to relocate your post.

  • I can no longer download apps that I buy.  They are on my computer, they will no longer sync onto my phone.  Yes, I DO know how to do it.  They no longer will go onto my phone.

    Did some searches, but did not come up with anything regarding your specific issue (the original one, the grey 'waiting' problem is quite common). If no other ofrum users chime in, it is indeed time to contact Apple / iTunes Store support.
    If you have not yet one so, Try to Reset your device.  Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off that shows up first).
    You could also try to re-download one or two apps, just to see if anything changes. Log in to the iTunes Store, go to the Purchases section and download from the list of past purchases or free apps.
    Sorry I wasn't of better help. Good luck.

    Try syncing your iPad with your computer, that way it can update its version of iTunes.

  • I can no longer update apps on my iPhone or iPad1.  It keeps asking me to agree to new terms, which I do, then stops and asks again over and over. Please help. I do not want to update to a new iOS

    I can no longer update apps on my iPhone 4 or my iPad 1 because it keeps asking me over and over to agree to new terms, so I do that and it still does not work.  Just around and around in a circle.  I do not want to update software. I like what I have.

    Pay attention to the numerous posts on this tonight.....try again tomorrow.

  • I can no longer download apps on my iPod. (More info in message)

    I can no longer download apps on my iPod. I recently had a card number on my iTunes account that i had to cancel and now it wants me to enter another card number so i can purchase apps. I only plan on getting free apps on my iPod and i do not want to enter my card number. Is there a way to create an account without enter my card number?

  • I can no longer access apps on my new iPad that we're downloaded on old one.  Using cloud.

    Are you trying to download them from your purchased list?  If so, make sure you are signed in with the Apple ID you used to purchase them in Settings>iTunes & App Store, and that the apps are still available for purchase in the App store.  Then you should be able to download them as explained here: Download past purchases.
    If that isn't your question, please explain further.

  • I can no longer download Apps from App store nor update the existing ones

    iMac 21" Intel
    year 2013
    OSX10.10.1
    I can no longer download Apps from App Store.
    I would select the app, press the icon to download the App (Ottieni in my language, Italian), download would not start and an alarm saying "Download failed, try from the Purchased page to retry" would pop-up, see screenshot below.
    I would visit the page "Purchased" (second icon from right) and try from there by pressing the icon Install on the right hand side but the same pop-up icon would appear and a message by the icon Install saying "An error occurred" would appear.
    The same problem occurr when I try to update Keynote, Imovie or any other App I have downloaded.
    I do not know whether this is related to this issue but some time ago I installed Avast.
    I could not install other apps such as uTorrent (not downloaded through App Store) until I removed Avast.
    I am utterly disappointed.
    Can anyone help, please?
    Thanks.
    Carlo

    Yes, Avast could very well be the issue. Bad software, use the developer's instructions to uninstall and don't install again. Your Mac has no real need for most 3rd party anti-viral software and those so-called tune-up apps mess up more than they are worth. A pristine OS X system is all that you need, it takes care of itself.

  • HT4539 how to enable my apple id on iTunes? Somehow its disabled and I can no longer download Apps on my IPhone ??

    how to enable my apple id on iTunes? Somehow its disabled and I can no longer download Apps on my IPhone ??

    Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone then try logging out of your account on the phone by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

    If the whole iPad freezes then something else is going on. Try this next. Close all apps in the recents tray and restart your iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
