Can I delete a TV show from itunes using apple tv?

I've been using EyeTV to export TV shows to iTunes so that I can watch those shows on my Apple TV 2. It works great, but when I'm done watching a show on my Apple TV 2, I'd like to delete the show from my iTunes library. As far as I know, I have to actually go to my mac and delete the show in the iTunes program to remove it. I'd like to be able to delete that show from my iTunes library using either Apple TV or my iPhone. Is there a way to do that? Similar to how you can delete a show from your Tivo or other DVR just using your remote.
(Trying to improve the ease of using the eyetv --> itunes --> apple TV combo to replace our Dish Network DVR.)

How can I delete an email-address from an old Apple ID-account?

I need to delete an email-address from an old Apple ID-account, but the Apple ID seems to be deleted (but not by myself), to use it as a validated mail-address for communicating via iMessage from my new Apple ID.
I already tried 'Find my Apple ID'.

but the Apple ID seems to be deleted (but not by myself), to use it as a validated mail-address for communicating via iMessage from my new Apple ID.
If that AüpleID has been disabled for security reasons, you may not be able to access it. Then you need to give Apple Support a call: only they will be able to help you. See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone numbers given or an email form:
Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
Explain, that you need help with an account security problem.

Is there any way to delete files from iTunes directly?

You can but in order to be able to do it directly from iTunes, the song/songs need to be store in the "iTunes folder" in your media directory or the Default folder to chose Under:
** Preferences -> Advanced -> Itunes Media folder location
That is not accurate.
I do not keep my media in the iTunes folder because I personally cannot stand the way iTunes manages the folders.
I am able to delete media from my computer via iTunes by simply selecting delete and then selecting the option to let iTunes remove it from the drive.

Auto Delete Watched TV shows from iTunes - Mac version

My workflow is as follows: eyeTV records to a folder, iVI picks up show, pulls in meta data and tags the show, converts it to Apple TV 3 format, deletes the orgininal .eyetv file, exports to iTunes in the proper folder (movie, TV, etc...) Then it shows up on my Apple TV under home sharing with all the beautiful meta data and artwork. The problem is when I am done watching my show I have to manually go to my computer (which is a headless mac mini running as a server) and delete the files. It's a real PITA. Is there anyway to auto delete shows with a watch status - or does anyone know where I can get ahold of an apple script or something to do this?
Thanks,
Travis

Have you considered a smart playlist of unwatched TV shows.
You can construct it like this:
Select iTunes application, the in top menu,
    select 'File' then 'New Smart Playlist'
    'Media Kind' is 'TV Show'
   add another level with 'Plays' is 0
Name the playlist 'Unwatched TV Shows'
Once you watch the show, it will be removed from the play list.
If you would like scripts, there is an excellent source of scripts,
Google for "Doug' Applescripts".
He has hundreds of scripts for various iTune tasks.
Most are free but you can donate if you like.

I can't delete a tv show from my ipad

I have a tv show that is not showing up on my ipad, but itunes says it has been downloaded onto my ipad. I tried to delete it using settings, but it is not showing up. I only see it in itunes when I connect. Any good suggestions?

Then it is not on the iPad. You are seeing it in the iTunes library on your computer. If it was on the iPad, you would see it in the Videos App or in Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>Videos>TV Shows. If you want to delete it from iTunes, click on the TV Shows icon at the top left of the iTunes window, then right click on the TV show icon and select Delete.

Can't delete video line item from iTunes; crashes instead!

I have a line item for video in my iTunes library that I can't delete; it crashes iTunes instead.
When I right-click on the item, I get an error message that wants to send info to Microsoft before I can Clear it or uncheck it.
I've deleted the original video file and all other items in the library are responsive. I can still import music and video however when I try to sync with my iPod, it downloads everything until it gets to this line item and then iTunes crashes and closes.
Frustrating... Any ideas?

If Zevoneer's suggestion didn't work you can try just
clearing your whole library by pressing Ctrl+A & Del,
then adding it again by going File>Add folder to
library and add the folders you want.
If that still doesn't work (it doesn't let you clear
the library), uninstall then reinstall iTunes. That
should clear the library.
Well, looks like the simplest solution was the correct one. I tried to delete my library but it crashed when it got to the problem line item. So I ended up reinstalling iTunes and the line item was successfully deleted. (Now I get to recompile my library of 7400 songs and 200 videos. I'll get back with ya'll next month!)
Thanks for all the help everyone!

Can't get purchased tv shows from itunes to my ipod.

I have bought tv shows through itunes store. When I sync my ipod they do not transfer. I have a 80 gb classic ipod.

Not understanding, when i go to my tv shows tab, it brings up the ones that i have purchased, not sure where i go to change the sync settings... thanks!
Connect your iPod to iTunes. The display should change to show the Summary tab for the iPod. On the TV Shows tab there is a section that reads Sync all/X most recent/all unwatched/ etc... episodes of all/selected TV Shows/playlists. Make your choices here...

How can I delete 2 tv shows in iTunes I watched on my pc?

Help menu said to choose "move to recycle bin" however, I can't find that option in my iTunes. Help, please!

You need to connect your phone to your computer and de-select that album in your sync settings in iTunes.
Best of luck.

Can not transfer Movies or TV Shows from iTunes to Apple TV any more

Hi,
I've been having syncing problems lately, but this latest one I can't solve. My iMac is running 10.6.3 with iTunes 9.1.1 (11). When I sync between the Mac and the Apple TV, everything (music, photos, podcasts, playlists) gets copied except movies and TV shows I've purchased through iTunes.
I've tried automatic sync, custom sync with the movies and TV shows selected. I've tried 'Transfer Purchases', but all I ever get is the "Syncing Apple TV" message with the 'busy' bar, and no actual progress.
Can anyone suggest anything else I can try? I've been through the solutions in this forum already, and nothing has worked

How can I delete a tv show from the icloud?

I don't mean hide them, I want to completely remove them. I saw that you need icloud.com and I was wondering if there was another way because my iPod is too old to be connected to icloud.com so I can't use that

You cannot delete them from icloud at all.
Most of your purchases are stored in icloud. That is what icloud does. It allows you to redownload most of your purchases.

How do I delete onl TV shows from iTunes?

I have an old TV Show in my iTunes library which I want to permanently delete. I try to right click, but no options appear when I do that. I have tried to manually manage music and video, but no help. How do I permanently delete?

I agree...that's not the answer (even though that's what iTunes Help says to do). It does nothing. I'm trying to get rid of multiple tv shows that I bought seasons ago and my iPad keeps sync'ing them. I need the storage space for other movies.

Can't stream Dolby Digital movies from iTunes to Apple TV 2 since iOS 4.1

Has anyone the same problem?
Since I updated Apple TV to 4.1 it's not possible to stream movies with Dolby Digital sound to Apple TV anymore. When I try to start playing the movie I get this error message:
The operation coulnd\U2019t be completed.
(BackRowErrors error 326.)
This problem didn't appear on iOS 4.0. Videos with stereo sound still work, so I think it has something to do with the Dolby Digital. I encoded the videos using Handbrake.
Thanks for any help!

I was having the same error. I switched Audio Language to default and Dolby Digital to 'on' and I finally can see the video, but with no sound...
I tried MKVTools and Handbrake, AC3 passthru for audio on both, iTunes plays nice, but Apple TV doesn't. Any other solution?

Short answer, no.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; only apps, books (not audiobooks), music, and t.v. shows (not movies). Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list, or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.

How can I permanently delete purchased movies or TV shows from itunes?

You can't currently permanently delete items, all you can do is hide them so that they are less visible : hiding and unhiding. At the moment you can't hide items directly on iOS 6 devices, but you should be able to do it via your computer's iTunes.
