Can't delete videos from iPhone on iTunes??? WHY? Help

Hello.
I have iphone 5 and I unloaded videos some time ago, after that I deleted them on phone, but
when I open my iPhone in iTunes it still shows that movies and that space is used for them.
I can't delete them in iTunes, there is no such option.
Please advise what to do and how do delete these files properly?

They don't have a cloud icon next to them at all do they? If so they are stored in the cloud and not actually on the phone at all.
Regards,
Steve

Can't delete video from iphone 5S

I have 2 videos with over 4 GB of space that I can't find or delete. I have no movies or TV shows on my iphone. I think it is a video my wife recorded on my iphone. How do I delete them? Thanks!

Apple does this annoying thing where your pictures and other media is saved in your camera roll and other albums that you can see when you go into Photos (not Camera) from the home screen. I've had some that you can't delete from the album by touching the phone itself. You have to connect the phone to iTunes and turn off those items or albums from being synced. Then with them deselected, go ahead and re-sync the phone. That was the only way I could get mine cleared off.

Can't transfer video from iPhone to iTunes

Hi, I hope this hasn't been covered in another thread already. I did a cursory search and turned up nothing.
I bought a music video from the iTunes store on my iPhone. when I plug the iPhone into my iMac and it shows up in iTune's menu I try to drag-and-drop the video to iTunes it won't transfer over. This proceedure has always worked in reverse (from iTunes to iPhone) in the past, but why not this way? Also I downloaded some podcasts to the iPhone and the same story; won't transfer to iTunes.
FYI: I don't have auto-sync set up between iTunes and my iPhone because I don't want everything that is on iTunes on my iPhone, just the stuff I select.

After connecting your phone to iTunes, right-click your device name and select "Transfer Purchases" This will transfer to iTunes everything you purchased on your iPhone without syncing.
BTW, you can set up iTunes to sync only selected music, videos, podcasts and apps without "drag/drop". On the summary page of your device, check "Sync only checked songs and videos". In your library, check which items you want to sync to your phone in Music, Movies, TV, Podcasts, Audiobooks, Apps, Ringtones, Radio.

Well, Ocean brings up a good point. I was assuming videos taken with your camera, he is thinking videos rented or purchased. What kind of videos are you referring to?

seeing iTunes deleted my iPod, how can I transfer music from iPhone to iTunes?

any itunes purchased music can be transferred from phone to pc via hitting the "transfer purchases" option when u right click on the phone under devices in itunes on the computer when it is plugged in. any non-itunes purchased music is stuck on the phone and cannot be transferred to the computer. u will have to load it onto the computer from the original source or from the old computer.

Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup. If your iPhone's backup was updated since the video was captured and the backup has not been updated again since it was deleted from the iPhone, you can try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from the iPhone's backup. Don't update the backup before doing so.

How can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out

how can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out. It doesnt let me delete from itunes either and its just taking up space on my iphone and i cant even listen to the song that are grayed out

I did this with about 100 songs, and the problem is everytime I connect my iphone with itunes, It will automatically sync back every single song I did delete on the phone by swiping.
I did search on google and found out that serveral people has this problem. The songs wont delete from itunes library.
So why do they even make this function if it only deletes the songs for a short time?
Best regards PelleRPG.

Can I download video from iPhone 4s to iPod touch 2

can I download video from iPhone 4s to iPod touch 2?

This what I've tried so far:
Downloaded photos from the iPhone to the computer. Videos and photos transferred without problem.
Plugged in the iPod Touch (2) and all photos synced just fine, but no video appeared.
While the iPod was connected I looked In the menu bar of iPhoto, when I chose movies, none were listed.
I cannot find an item listed in the settings menues that seem relevant.
I have emailed the movies successfully from the iPhone 4s.

Anyone know how I can transfer my playlist from iphone to Itunes on my laptop. Computer had crashed. I am unable to export. I had backed up songs to icloud which are now on my laptop however without the original playlists folders?

Anyone know if I can transfer my playlist from iphone to Itunes on my laptop.
I am not keen to sync my iphone to my new laptop in case it wipes out my playlist.
My Computer had crashed so I am unable to export a playlist.
I had backed up songs to icloud which are now on my laptop however without the original playlists folders?
Any suggestions?

Hello CDA ENT
I would turn off the automatic syncing so that way you can see what is on your iPhone. From there, you should be able to see what is on your iPhone and then can export out the playlists and then import them back to your library. I would also recommend backing up your iPhone before going through with this process. To export a playlist, have it highlighted then go to File > Library > Export Playlist…

How can i delete photos from iphone 4s after transferring from pc?

How can I delete photos from iphone 4s after transferring from pc?

acapetown is the one who really solved this for me: his suggestion to create an empty folder and sync to that was THE ONLY solution that actually worked for my iphone 4s. Everything else about uncheckign "sync" and unchecking events DID NOT WORK. I think there is more than one glitch in this system because I noticed a lot of other people struggling with the question. Now my phone is light as a feather again and I can actually benefit from backup to the Cloud. Thanks acapetown!

How can I retrieve deleted videos from iPhone 5?

I accidently delelted some videos I just took and was wondering is there a way to "undo" or retrieve the videos on the phone? I didn't get the chance to do an backup after filming the videos so they won't be apart of the backup history. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Don't panic. Pryde2k. Even if you deleted all your important videos from your iPhone 5, there is still a way to recover the deleted videos back. Dr.Fone can help you. You can read this article to learn more:

"Over capacity": How can I delete photos from iPhone / set the maximum capacity of iCloud photos to be downloaded to iPhone?

Hi,
My iPhone regularily goes over capacity because it stores, or tries to store, too many photos/videos from iCloud on the device.
How can I delete photos from the iPhone (but not generally from iCloud/Photostream). How can set the maximum capacity of iCloud photos to be downloaded to iPhone? (I am searching for a setting like "keep the last 2GB of photos/videos from iCloud/Photostream, but not more than that. I know how to turn iCloud off in total, but that is not what I would prefer to do, I just would like to set reasonable maximum.)
Thank you for your ideas!
Generally, I someone could point me to a good tutorial on how local photos vs. iCloud photos vs. Photostream are supposed to work that would be great as well, because I have many other problem with Apple's system in that regard as well (esp., despite that obviously a lot of space is taken up by photos/videos on my device, my iPhone still downloads recent photos/videos over 3G... I also have the problem that all photos appear double if I try to copy to my Mac with ImageCapture or iPhoto, but there is only a single copy (no HDR, burst or the like) when seen with the Photos.app of the iPhone itself... I came to believe that Apple's photo system is somewhere between counterintuitive and plainly not working... (/rant off) )

Sorry there are no settings to set max capacity.

I can't delete songs from iphone

For some reason I can't fathom I can't delete music from my iPhone in iTunes. I manually manage my songs and usually I hit the delete button and the album/songs will be removed from my phone. All that happens now when I do this is when I hit the delete button it scrolls to the last album on my phone.
Also when I try this in iTunes the same thing happens, I can only delete songs/albums from my iTunes library by right clicking and selecting delete (an option I don't have when trying to delete songs from my iPhone)
Can anybody help? I am running iTunes 10.4 on OS Lion on a Macbook Pro, with iPhone 4. I've tried reinstalling iTunes and retoring my phone from a previous back up. Didn't work.
