Why can't I completely unistall an app from my iPhone 4?

I'm trying to uninstall 2 3rd party apps on my iPhone 4. However, I cannot get them to completely disappear, They still show up in the 'not on iPhone' list. I want them COMPLETELY removed. How do I get them completely off?

They are removed. The "not on iPhone" List is exactly that, a list telling you what is NOT installed on your phone.
The "Not in iPhone" list is part fo our Purchased history. You cannot delete purchased items form the purchase history.  Apple uses this list to known which Apps you have bought and as such have access to for free download again. Deleting an App from that list would defeat its purpose.
You can hide them from the purchased list though.

    Why can't I have the Facetime App on my iPhone?

    Very Vague question.
    Why do you think that you cannot?
    Tap contacts, pick the contact you want to call, scroll down to the facetime button.
    What is your issue?

  • Why can't I buy and use app from app store?

    please help me, I can't buy Apps from App store and if I can buy this, I'll can't use this, what's happen with my account? Please help me... Thanks!!!

    What happens when you try to buy an app, does the 'buy' button not work, do you a message about your billing info, an error message about something else ... ?
    If you are getting a message to contact iTunes support then you can do so via this page and ask the why it's appearing (we won't' know) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    If it's a different problem then providing some info about it might mean that people on here can try and help.

  • Why can't I install the netflix app to my iPhone

    I can't install any apps to my iPhone

    Can you find the App Store app on the phone ? If not then that implies that the store is hidden by restrictions, and if it is then it will also stop you installing apps from your computer.
    If she can't remember her restrictions code then was it on the phone when it was last backed up ? If it wasn't then you can restore to that backup and it should be removed.
    If it was on the phone when it was last backed up then the only way to remove the code is to reset the phone back to factory defaults (e.g. your mum could log into her account on http://www.icloud.com and send a remote wipe message to it) and you can then re-sync content back to the phone - you won't be able to restore to the backup as that will restore/keep the restrictions code in place. Prior to resetting the phone copy any purchases over to your computer's iTunes library via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option, and copy any important documents, photos off it.

  • Why can't I see mail I sent from my iPhone on any other device?

    I've had a mac.com email address for many years now, on my iPhone and my Mac (running Lion now).
    Here's the problem -- when I check INBOXES from device to device the contents are always the same (i.e. synced), but this is not so with SENT mail. It appears only on the device from which I sent it. This is very annoying since I run my business from this account and need access to my communications wherever I am.
    Gmail of course provides full sync of sent messages by default, and this works perfectly from my iPhone, desktop, etc. The same is true for other cloud-based email services like Hotmail etc. It seems strange to me that Apple mail would be the one service not to provide sync of sent mail.
    Why aren't the SENT messages synced? Can anybody help me configure it?
    (Thanks in advance for your help.)

    I'm assuming the account is setup as an iCloud email address under the iCloud settings?
    On your phone:  Try looking in settings >> iCloud >> account >> mail >> advanced >> sent mailbox.  Is there a check in the on my iPhone section or the server section?  You want the server.
    I'm not on my mac at the moment, so I can't say off the top of my head where to look on your Mac.  But maybe mail menu >> preferences >> accounts >> mailbox behaviors?

  • HT4946 why can't i complete mountain lion app

    Hi.  I recently bought the update App for Lion to Mountain lion, and it will not go thru.  help?

    This has worked for some people:
    - Sign out of the App Store (in the Store menu)
    - Quit the App Store
    - In Finder - Go>Go to folder...  (or Apple-shift-G)
    - Paste in the following "~/Library/Caches/ "
    - It will take you to a folder.  Delete com.apple.appstore
    - Launch the App Store.  Sign in and then reclick the Mountain Lion buy.  It won't charge you again.

  • Why can't I download certain songs/apps onto my iPhone?

    I just got a new iPhone 4s, and I was super excited to put all my music on it so I could put more apps on my iPad. The trouble is, when I tried to download my songs onto my iPhone, a lot of them came up with an error saying "... could not be downloaded at this time." and then either Done or Retry - there was no explanation of why. So I pressed retry a couple of times, to no avail, and clicked done. Then it started happening on a whole host of other songs, and now I have a music library with a very pitiful selection of music on it.
    I tried ringing Apple Support, but the best they could do was tell me to sign out and back in again, which didn't work, then turn it off and on again - still didn't work. The guy also seemed to have the impression that I had just bought these songs - they're already on my account, I just want to download them!
    I have literally no idea what to do. Has anyone else had this problem, and managed to resolve it?!

  • Why can't i download a free app from another countries app store?

    I have an account with App store UAE and need to download the HBR app which is free but when i access the USA store it says my credit card is not applicable tothis store

    Largely due to licensing agreements, you can only buy from the iTunes Store in the country in which you reside.  To prove you reside there, Apple will only take credit cards issued from and billed to that country / address. 
    The developer may not have given permission for that particular app to be sold in your country by Apple.   They may have alternate agreements.

  • Can I remove the apple watch app from my iphone?

    With all the apps that Apple requires to be downloaded, it leaves little room for the apps I want or pictures or music.  Is there a way to delete this app or other apps I don't want/use that Apple puts on there?

    It is a little different than the PC "bloatware" The Apple provided apps go back to the first iPhone and prior to Apple allowing third party apps. At that time the smartphones available (Blackberry, Treo) all included Mail, a browser, weather, and stocks apps so Apple did too. Apple also included the iTunes Store and Music apps since they operated a music store. Since then they have continued to offer these apps and have added Newsstand (really a folder), Passport ( a new feature that has to be tied to the OS due to sandboxing restrictions,a Clock, and Apple Watch. Stocks is included since the Blackberry was primarily used by businesses and Apple wanted to be able to include this market.
    Once Apple opened up to 3rd party apps they could have dropped some of the included apps but they really don't take a lot of space and I would guess they are widely used. I know I use the included Stocks and Weather, they meet my simple needs and I have no reason to download another and learn it. Oddly if you read the iPad community when it was first released one of the biggest complaints (and it still pops up) is not included clock (now not applicable), weather and calculator apps. You just can't win.
