What is the easiest & quickiest way to delete apps from an iPad?

What is the easiest & quickiest way to delete apps from an iPad?

You can delete apps directly on the iPad by pressing and holding any of the apps and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking (you can't delete any of the Apple built-in apps). 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'
Or you can connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and then use the Apps tab on the right-hand side of iTunes to remove the apps that you no longer want on the iPad

    If the shows are in fact still on the pad, they will be found in the videos app, not the music or I tunes app.  Look there and see if they are still there.
    If you don't see them there, go to the searchlight screen ( farthest left home page) and type in the name of one of the shows.  If it is on the pad, hiding somewhere, this will find it.
    If they are not there, they should not be using up space.
    To get them back onto your pad, plug in and sync again.  Make sure you transfer purchases first.   Before you sync, take a look at the video tab in your I tunes, and check what you want and don't want synced.

  • I need help!  I installed icloud on my computer, uploaded photos, my computer crashed and now my ipad runs slow b/c there are too many photos.  Is there a way to delete photos from my ipad (right now, I can click on the photos but not delete)?

    What options do I have?  Will purchasing more storage help?  Can I change control from my PC to my ipad if I can't use my computer anymore?

    You can import your photos and videos in the Camera Roll on your iPad to your work computer using you usb cable, then delete them from your iPad by following the directions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  If you also have photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll that you want to save, save them to your camera roll so they can be imported too.  To do this, open your My Photo Stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  After importing them you can delete them from your iPad if you want by tapping Edit again, tapping the photos, then tapping Delete.
    Once they are on your work computer, you can transfer them to a USB memory stick if you cannot leave them there.
    Any photos on your iPad that were synced from your computer can be salvaged by using an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your work computer over wifi.  (They can't be saved to the camera roll and imported with your usb cable like photos in the camera roll.)  Deleting these photos from your iPad will require using iTunes.  Once you have your own computer again and can install iTunes, you can delete these remaining photos by creating an empty folder on your computer, then selecting this folder to sync to your iPad on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.

  • What is the most efficient way to delete multiple contacts

    How can I delete multiple contacts at one time?

    Ok, here was the fix.  I found that the date added was 18 minutes apart for the duplicates.  Since half the music was added at :19  and half was added at :37, I sorted by date added in the display duplicates window, and deleted the music by date!  It took 5 minutes.  I know enough to get me in and out of trouble, and that's all I know!

    No, at the moment you can only delete music when connected to your computer's iTunes, you can't delete it directly on the iPad.

  • What's the trick?  Can't delete loops from Garageband loop browser.

    Am I missing something? I've tried to delete 3rd party loops directly from the Garageband loop browser, but could not. It wouldn't work in Garageband 08, and it won't work in '09.
    These loops were all added to the library by drag and drop into the loops browser.
    Is there something I need to do with file permissions?

    I think you can only delete loops from the browser that you created yourself with GB.
    Just delete the loops in the Finder and re-index everything.

  • What is the difference between methods of deleting data from cube

    Hi,
    Is there any differences, pros and cons for deleting data from cube by:
    1) deleting the specific request loaded into the cube
    2) using selective deletion with specific characteristic values
    Assumption for the above is both the options will delete the same data set.
    Thanks and regards.

    Hi BW Beginner,
    Yes, of course, there are differences.
    Selective Deletion:
    PROS: You can use to delete data that satisfies a certain criteria (e.g. some characteristic values).
    CONS: I think this locks the whole cube during deletion
    Deletion by request id:
    PROS: You can easily delete all data that belongs to a certain request id (i.e. you can easily delete a bad load).
    CONS: If you have already compressed the cube, you can not use deletion by request id to delete a certain request.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I permanently delete apps from my iPad?

    When you delete an application, it's data is not permanently deleted.  I'd like to know how you permanently delete all of the application data.

    This is copied for an iPhone thread but it works the same way for an iPad.
    If you really want to get rid of it: iTunes>Library>Apps...right-click the app you want to delete, select delete, when prompted, move all files to trash, empty your trash. Then, make sure you first delete the app on your phone, then sync your phone. The app and all traces of its data will be gone.
    iTunes meaning launch iTunes on your computer and remove the app from your iTunes library as well.
    Here is the thread.

  • HT2905 how do I permanently delete app from my Ipad 2?

    I would like to know if it's possible to permanently delete unwanted apps and moves off my Ipad2? I have tried my when I reset my Ipad, they are still there! HELP

    Yes you can permanently delete them from the iPad, but if you sync with iTunes and the apps and movies are still in iTunes, you have to delete them in there as well or they will transfer back to the iPad once you sync again.
    Forgive the title of the website.

    If this isn't working for you, explain what you are doing and what "reset my iPad" means in this regard.

  • How do I delete apps from my iPad

    I have downloaded a couple of apps that I wish to delete from my iPad.......how do I do this

    DELETING APPS
    Touch the app and hold your finger down until all the apps start to jiggle. You will see a circled "x" in the upper left corner. Tap it to delete an app. When done press the Home button.
    You cannot delete any pre-installed iOS app.
    If the app is in iTunes, then you delete the app in iTunes. If you then sync with your iPad, the app will also be deleted from your iPad.

  • How do I delete APPs from my iPad that I no longer want?

    I have a couple of APPS that I downloaded and do not use anymore. I tried deleteing by holding down and getting the X on the apps but it will not let me delete.

    Did the 'x' appear ? If not then have you got Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps set off ? Also are you sure that they are apps that you downloaded, and not built-in ones that cannot be removed ?

  • How do I permanently delete an app from my iPad and App Store?

    I would like to permanently delete apps from my iPad and my Purchased list in the App Store. How do I do this? These apps are ones that I have tried and found to be useless or do not work correctly. I have deleted apps from iTunes Store, but I cannot get rid these unwanted apps on my iPad and this is very annoying.
    Apple may think that users out there who may change their mind. However I am not one of them. If something is useless and does not work correctly, then I do not want to see it again. Some of these apps I have paid for, but I am prepared to accept that loss as a bad purchase. So Apple, please provide a facility to allow users to permanently delete apps from the App Store. Obviously, Apple would have to include the appropriate warnings that permanently deleting apps cannot be reversed.

    Hi ..
    You can delete the currenlty installed apps. Hold down an app until all the apps jiggle. Then on each app tap the x then tap Delete. Press the Home button once to to stop the apps from jiggling.
    And you can hide purchases >  iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases
    But purchase history cannot be delete.
    "Obviously, Apple would have to include the appropriate warnings that permanently deleting apps cannot be reversed."
    Apps can re downloaded using the same Apple ID for free >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
