Can't delete some album artwork & put in new album artwork

When I got this new iPod (had an older one, pre-color) I used the feature that loads album artwork for you. Fine & dandy, except some of the artwork it found is wrong, wrong, wrong. For instance one of them says "Pure 80s!" which is not the original album's artwork (although, yes, it is an 80s song). I cannot for the life of me get rid of that album cover even though I "delete" it and put the correct album cover in it's place. Any help on this, or am I stuck with "Pure 80s!" instead of the real cover art from the original album the song was on? Argh!! (been trying to fix this intermitantly for several months). This is just one instance, there are several others like this and it drives me bonkers because I'm kind of anal.

Let me clarify one thing. When plugged into the computer & itunes, the album artwork IS correct. When I disconnect and the ipod is on it's own, the artwork is INcorrect.
Also, I don't sync because I use my laptop which doesn't have enough memory to hold all my music. I do load everything onto an external harddrive, but that is incase of a catastrophic emergency and the whole thing needs to be redone.

Can't delete SOME photos from my iPad Photo Album

Hello there,
I need a bit of help. I'm using an iPad 2 OS 6.0.1.
There's a few photos that I'm not able to delete from my Photos folder.
I click on the Photos App
Then click on Edit
I then get the option to put check marks on the photos. At that point I can click on the Delete button and delete SOME of them, but not all.
It's strage because some of the ones I can't delete, just seem to be duplicates of some of the ones I CAN delete.
In the past, I was syncing my iPad to my computer. Since moving to the iCloud, I've stopped plugging my iPad into any computer. I've read some message boards that say that this is because those photos were added by syncing to the laptop and that in order to remove them, you have to re-sync to the laptop.
One BIG issue is, that laptop is now not functioning. Assuming these photos were added through that laptop, is there a way to remove them without syncing to that laptop? Also, why would there be some duplicates. Would it have been an error in the sync process that created the dups?
I'm thinking MAYBE the answer is going to be to sync the iPad to my NEW laptop. If that's the answer, is that safe to do without risk of losing stuff? (music, movies, apps, app data, settings)
Thanks,
Bill

How can i delete some books from ibook?

How can i delete some books from ibook? It says: this book can't be opened. The book is corrupt. I can't open and I can't delete it

I was unable to delete a book sample from my iPhone 5s running iOS 7. This seems to be what worked for me. I went to the Library and clicked "edit" in upper right side of the screen. I then tapped one time on the book I wanted to remove and a blue check appeared at the bottom right corner of that book (presumably you could tap several at a time) Anyway, when the blue check is on the book, you will see in the upper left of the screen the word "Delete" (mine was in red) I clicked that and then a confirming dialog came up from the bottom of the screen with the choices of "delete" or "cancel". I chose "delete" and the book was gone. Hope this helps.

I am receiving a notification that says that I am running out of storage space. I backed up time mating to an external hard drive. Can I delete some files to make room?

I am receiving notifications that I am running out of storage space. I backed up my mac book using an external and time machine. Can I delete some files to make room?
If so,
When I want to restore from my time machine, can I pick and choose, say certain songs, photos or documents?

About TM "Backup Drive is Full"
Alert TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Time Machine "thins" it's backups; hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first of the day; those "daily" backups over 30 days old, except the first of the week. The weeklies are kept as long as there's room.
So, how long a backup file remains depends on how long it was on your Mac before being deleted, assuming you do at least one backup per day. If it was there for at least 24 hours, it will be kept for at least a month. If it was there for at least a week, it will be kept as long as there's room.
Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive. You can also use the Time Machine application to selectively remove files, but that may be ineffective if you have to free up GBs of space.

I have an iPad2 and I can't delete some apps I downloaded that I don't want. I can get the apps lto wiggle, but there is no X in the upper left corner for deletion. Any help is much appreciated.

I have an iPad2 and I can't delete some apps I was downloading but froze. I can get the apps to wiggle, but there is no X in the upper left corner for deletion. I have tried re-setting and didn't work. Help will be appreciated.

See if anything here helps.
If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

HT1937 Hi I'm Ronald Macatangay. I use IPad to, my problem is I forget the code that I enter in a restriction and I can't delete some of my apps. Can you halp me. Thanks

Hi I'm Ronald Macatangay, I using iPad2 and I'm having a problem with restrictions I forgot the code that I enter. And I can't delete some of my apps. Can you help me? Thanks

You will need to connect it to the computer you sync with and Restore it as a new device then rebuild everything manually. If you restore from your backup it will restore the restrictions password.

I can not delete some power point files in the trash.help?

I can not delete some power point files in the trash.help?

Hi Gary,
The presentations were created originally with PowerPoint. I have been using them on both KeyNote and PowerPoint with no problem, even after updating to MountainLion. Problems started at the 10.8.3 upgrade. The installation was an upgrade form Lion. Yes I mean Open Office, I am able to open the presentation with Open Office and play it with no problems.
The presentation gets loaded by Power Point and the Power Point freezes. Key Note can not even load it. Stops 3/4 of the way. This happens with ALL my presentations.
I want to thank you for your help.

How can I delete some data so I can back my iPhone up to the icloud

I want to back my iPhone up to the icloud. How can I delete some data

DO NOT start iTunes. Connect your phone to a computer and then access the photo folder, should be the only folder that will appear when you access your phone through the file explorer. You are looking for the DCIM folder. Open it and then either copy the photos to a folder on your computer if you want to save them. Then you can delete them from your phone.
Or you can simply go into Pictures, Open the folder you want to empty out, Tap Select, Tap the pictures (Sorry but you have to touch each one) and then tap the trash can.
And remember that if anyone has messaged you a picture it will be in Messages and also taking up room.

Hi,
First I uninstalled my old HP Scan application using uninstall in the same folder as the app.
Then I installed HP Scanjet Full Feature Software and Drivers for Mac OS X v10.6 from HP support page: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=sj-78355-5 &cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=219&product=3236366&sw_lang=
Then I was able to make single scans using Image Capture.
Does it help?

Power Mac G5 2.7Ghz. Only one hard drive, other bay is empty. Can I clone that drive by putting the new empty HDD in the empty bay and use Disc Utility. Have Tiger 10.4.11 and at the moment no internet on that machine. Thanks

Greetings. Power Mac G5 2.7GHz. (Yes, water cooled, but no leaks ...yet!) Tiger 10.4.11 Only one hard drive, the other bay is empty. Can I clone that drive by putting the new empty hard drive in the lower empty bay and use Disc Utility. Currently I do not have this computer on the internet, I assumed it would not matter.

C6-01 - can't delete some pictures in album

I just got the C6-01, I'm very satisfied, but there seem to be a bug in the albums, I took 4 pictures that I can't delete, I get a "system error" when trying, took some more pictures which I can delete just fine, what can I do?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

By default, the photos are stored to the memory card so you can try to check if you can find them there using the phones file manager. Try deleting from there.
