          There are two entries in the applications manager, one is for installed apps and the other is for installation files. There is a third for installation settings but that isn't relevant here.
          Installed apps is where all your apps are installed, so removing entries there will also remove the app itself.
          Installation files is where SIS files are kept ready to be installed. If there are any entries here, you can either tap on it to install it or long press it to delete it.

                  Ray Hipkiss, 05 Sep 2011 I never went anywhere. RayWell Ray it looks like we have reached over 16.5 million faulty N8 phones or is it unhappy users and fifth by rate. Nokia must be doing something right.but in your world that will be all down to fan boys, are would it be mainly down to many happy users like me.

                              Here is my review on my N8.
                              In the beginning with PR 1 boring and laaaaaaaaaa I dont know how to hack and tried to find for certificate on OPDA but could not found.
                              But when I tried flashing and used hacked belle
                              OMG its really awsome I can install any application of symbian and also big display gives me out of the world experience.
                              Though this phone hangs some times i tried to press for 3 sec switch off button thats it.
                              No matters about critics ............
                              I like the best things of nokia N8 is that it gives u a wide range of feaures and application.
                              I mean gaming is moderate whereas application usage is max.
                              I thanks alot for nicesoni for his nice CFW.
                              Really gr8, it has given a life to my phone.
                              Not all people can try for flashing, therefore I hope OPDA should start issuing certificate so that people should enjoy the actual essence of nokia N8.
                              To those people who are commenting for the bad quality of nokia n8, I think they are cheated by the cheap quality of mobile. Now a days i have seen duplicate quality of finland and china phones are made.
                              Even mine is china but working well and the battery for a moderate issue comes upto for a 2 days.
                              Pics are really gr8 when i have taken pics for running water i was just stunt, the pics still the bubbles and crystal molecules.Marvelous.
                              About the applicaiton working gr8.
                              Even call recording and Maps is perfect.
                              I Have medical and english dictionary working fine and useful.
                              The hold or grip is not that much perfect, i mean i dont like it. Thought it fall from my hands a couple of times but no marks or cracks as we can see in any phone.
                              In built features like fm transmitter, camera, memory, hdmi, usb, bluetooth, and metal casing is really superb.
                              Qt is doing good job.
                              Video gr8.
                              Watching movies good experience.
                              photo editing good.
                              overall as if now this is the only phone which can fulfill the thirst.
                              Expecting comments on review.
                              Thats it for now if u need some other info please let me know, happy to give reply.

If it isn't showing in Ovi suite on the PC then there are a couple of possibilities for this. One is that the servers are busy and the second is that you have checked for updates already within a 24 hour period prior to the update being released, in which case you will either have to wait another day to check again or try and use Nokia Software Updater software. Ovi suite has a 24 hour cache, like the software update feature on the phone.

                                    I recently updated to anna but from yesterday when i check the available updates through the phones software updater there is a software update available. My phone is advising me to connect with a computer so that i can update and the moment i connect to my laptop the ovi update service is telling that no update is available. Any suggestions

                                      Yes, the N8 can upgraded to Symbian Belle. If you had read the many posts here and elsewhere you would know that already.
                                      No, the N8 does not have a NFC chip, so it will never have near field capabilities.
