Unwanted apps in purchase history

How can I remove unwanted apps from my ipad purchase history. I have loads of apps i've tried and rejected but they still show up in purchase history.

Regardless, this does not work.
I'll repeat that: this (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919) does not work.
I work with a number of app developers and have downloaded dozens of apps in the last couple of years. Now, in iOS7, there is no way to hide previous purchases. Let me walk you through how it doesn't work:
I log into iTunes;
I go to the store and click on Account;
Under iTunes in the Cloud I click on the small Manage link next to Hidden Purchases;
I click on Apps and lo and behold! All of my hidden apps by the dozen. So many hidden apps;
I connect and resync my iPhone, just to be sure;
Boom! All of my purchase history... is still entirely visible and not hidden at all.
I don't understand why this is even a thing if it doesn't do what it's supposed to. "Hide your apps? Sure! Oh wait, you meant, hide them like... so they can't be seen? Well I don't know what kind of crazy definition of "hide" you subscribe to, sir, but that's not how it works here at Apple."

Can't see apps in purchase history of app store in iphone

Hello guys,
Today I faced a very weird problem with Itunes apps.
i was hiding some apps in my mac, but all those changes were not reflecting in my iphone running on latest ios 8.1.2. But as far as as other iphone running running on IOS 7.1.2 it was showing all those changes.
Then i asked apple customer care.
They told me to sign out itunes, turn iphone off/on and sign in again in itunes i did the same.
He also told me to turn off family sharing i turned it off.
After signing back app store showed no purchased app.
Even i downloaded a new app from store that was also not shown in purchase history.
I can say purchase history was black.
I have many apple products running on different IOS.
Following were the outcomes in various products:
Iphone 6 plus     IOS 8.1.2     Purchase history is blank even if i buy new app it is not added to purchase history
Iphone 5S          IOS 8.1.2     Purchase history showing all apps including apps that i have hide using macbook, but new purchases are not added.
Ipad Rati            IOS 8.1.2     Purchase history showing all apps including apps that i have hide using macbook, but new purchases are not added.
Iphone 5            IOS 7.1.2     Purchase history is working perfectly it is showing all the changes instantaneously, all those apps i hide were not shown, all new                                                   purchases in app store were visible and added to my purchase history, irony is even the apps i bought on iphone 6 + are showing                                                 up in purchase history of IOS 7.1.2
Ipod touch          IOS 6.1.6    Purchase history is working perfectly it is showing all the changes instantaneously, all those apps i hide were not shown, all new                                                   purchases in app store were visible and added to my purchase history, irony is even the apps i bought on iphone 6 + are showing                                                 up in purchase history of IOS 6.1.6
I feel it is some IOS 8 problem.
Please give some solution to fix it as i can't see any of my apps in purchase history.

Thanks for your suggestion. I tried that but didn't help. I also logged in to http://store.ovi.com with web browser and I could change the phone model to correct one (5230). However, this information was not passed on to the Nokia account so that with phone app the change was not visible. So the problem is still on.

App Store Purchase History, Download All - Ignore Hidden Apps?

Hello All!
Whenever I want to synchronize my Apps with my local library I usually go to my App Store purchase history and select "Download All." There are a few apps that I have purchased in the past that I do not want to download anymore. I thought by "hiding" the purchase it would stop the download when clicking "Download All" but it does not.
Is there any way to flag an app so that it never gets downloaded again?
Thank you!

Yup it is possible now. Check out this link:http://zytecworld.com/2011/11/21/hide-apps-from-the-app-store/
Cheers!

Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply.
I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

HT201322 remove app from purchase history

hi,
How can remove app from purchase history in account

The original error was the fact that when I installed video you on the iPad it was installed without audio, so I tried to delete the app and re-install. When I go to the purchase list of apps the app has a cloud instead of the word free. To me these means that the app that is being installed is from the cloud not from the developer. This produces the original error each time I install the all it gas no audio. I understand that in the release of the operating system on the iPad I am not able to hide the app. This was an option in earlier releases of the operating system.
Regards,
Warren

How can I delete the app store purchased history?

The game shows up in app store(purchased) even after I deleted it. How can I remove it from the purchased history?

It can't be removed from your purchase history as that is permanently maintained by the iTunes store. However, you can hide it in iTunes on your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919, after which it will no longer appear in your history on your iPod unless you unhide it in iTunes.

App store purchase history

Is there any way to find out the purchase history from the app store on my Ipod touch?
can't find it :s

With iOS 4.3.3 or later:
Open the App Store on your device.
Make sure you are signed in with the same account used for the original purchase.
Tap on Purchased from the bottom navigation bar.
*On iPhone or iPod touch, tap Updates from the bottom navigation bar, then tap Purchased.
Locate the app in your Purchased tab.
Disregard the numbers. It an artifact of cut and paste.

TS1702 Purchased apps are no longer visible in the app store purchased history. Affects both iPad and iPhone apps. Doesn't matter if I bought the app today or months ago. Where are the apps??

Why aren't apps showing in purchased history of the app store?

I have this issue also. Both lists (purchased and not on this ipad) attempt to refresh but seem to timeout and leave the page empty. Can only assume that there's an issue at Apples end. Quiet annoying though.

When trying to see app store purchased history on iPhone, not all of the apps are being displayed?

I had purchased apps from the app store on my iPad and would like to install those purchased apps on my iphone4, but not all of the apps are displayed in the purchased history when I try to view it from the iPhone. Is there a limit that will display from the iPhone? How do I get all of the purchased history to display?

Your iPhone has to be signed in to the Apple ID you used on your iPad when you originally purchased these apps in order for them to appear under Purchased on your iPhone (i.d., Purchased will only show apps purchased under the Apple ID you are currently signed into). Find out which ID you used to purchase the apps (launch iTunes, highlight Apps on the left under Library, highlight each of the apps, go to File>Get Info and look for Account Name: This will be the Apple ID that you used to purchase the app).
Once you know the Apple ID, on your iPhone go to Settings>Store>Apple ID (at the bottom), Sign Out of the current ID, then sign into the new ID. Now go to Purchased and see if the missing apps are there.
Hope this helps!

Old unwanted apps in purchased list

hi,
just wondering if there is any way at all to remove free apps that i have deleted from my purchased list on the app store? Would really appreciate suggestions/ solutions on how to do this. thanks

You can hide them so that they don't show, but they can't currently be deleted. In iTunes on your computer, if you go into the Purchased link on the iTunes store home page, if you then hover your mouse pointer over an app you should get an 'x' in the app's top left corner - click that and the app will be hidden from that screen.
Similarly on your iOS device you should be able to swipe across the app in the Purchased tab in the App Store app (I can on my iPad anyway) and you should then get a 'Hide' button which will hide it on that device

Mac app store purchasing history

I put an Itunes gift card into my account so I could have enough to buy an app on the mac app store but when i go to buy the app, it says that I don't have valid payment info and keeps sending me to billing info. What do I do?

Ok..
Try deleting the cache associated with the App Store.
Quit the App Store.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
Click Go
Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.appstore folder to the Trash.
Relaunch the App Store. See if that made a difference.

Purchased Pages 09 yesterday. It shows up in my iTunes purchase history, but is not in my App Store list of purchased apps. It was purchased and downloaded to my 13 macbook. I want to install it on my iMac, but can't do so until I see it in App Store.

I purchased Pages 09 through the App Store on June 22 from my Macbook. It downloaded and installed, but is not in my list of AppStore purchases. I need it to show up in my App Store purchase history, so that I may download and install to my iMac where I do more of my work when at home. THe app does not show up in App Store purchase history on either machine, however it does show up as purchased under my iTunes account. Yes, I could probably just copy the application from one machine to the other, but if it doesn't show up as an App Store purchase I won't receive any product updates.
Should I refute the credit card charge through my credit card company to get Apple to fix the issue?

(2) That option partially works, but is not acceptable in the long term.
(3) I do indeed now have the application on both machines. If I look for the Pages 09 application in the App Store application, it shows up as installed. However, it does not show up in my purchase history! This is critical as far as I'm concerned because I will not see security updates or feature updates unless it shows up as purchased from the App Store. In fact, I'm hoping that I'll get a free upgrade to Pages 11 (if it comes out soon) based on how recent I've made the purchase of Pages 09.
(1) good news
(2) I can't decide for you. Remember that I am an end user like you.
(3) (a) I never saw security update applied to an iWork application.
(b) for the update, as the app if flagged as installed you will get the update if Apple deliver an ultimate one (update 9.0.6)
(c) don't dream. Apple never did that. What they do is to deliver a free upgrade to buyers of a machine when the corresponding order was delivered after the product announcement (example : Lion if you order a mac to morrow)
Pages '11 (maybe it will be Pages '12) will not be an update but an upgrade and in such case, we must pay.
I got the described behavior for the app named "The Unarchiver" and, applying what I described, the app behave now as it must do.

You can hide them but not delete them.

Ipad mini cannot delete unwanted app from the purchase list

Ipad mini cannot delete unwanted app from the puchase list . too many app there

You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, but you should be able to hide them via your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 - if your iPad is on iOS 7, then after hiding them on your computer you may need to log out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in for them to be hidden in the Purchased tab in the App Store app on it (the last time I hid an app I needed to do that).
