CANT DELETE VIDEOS

ITUNES WILL NOT LET ME DELETE UNWANTED VIDEO I HAVE ACCIDENTLY ADDED, CAN ANYONE HELP?

I'm having the same problem. I had some old Rocketboom.com videos on my hard drive that I didn't know I had. When I updated to iTunes 6.0 it added these videos to my iTunes library. The problem is that the files had a read-only attribute set. Windows/XP OS. Since the files have read-only permission, iTunes won't allow me to delete the files. So I deleted the videos manually from the OS, unfortunately iTunes still won't let me delete the video from iTunes, even though the videos no longer exist. UGH! iTunes does ask me if I want to "browse" and find the file. I tried pointing the library to a file that was deleteable, but iTunes still thinks the file is protected and won't let me delete the file. I'm stumped. I can't think of way to delete all these files from my iTunes video library. Any ideas?

Cant delete video or photos

I think its official, my husbands Playbook is dead! Well, kind of. It has never been synced/backed up and there are lots of videos of our son on it that I will not get rid of so I dont want to wipe it. I have tried a hard reset and everything. Read on another forum about trying to plug in the pb with the desktop software already running and the pb turned off. I do this and all it does is turn on the pb. Doesnt prompt me to sync it or update it or anything like the forums say they will. I cant manually network map it to my laptop to pull the files that way and I cant even delete videos or photos to clear up some room to be able to do anything. The videos just keep popping back up. None of the apps work either. HELP!! I can run the videos and watch them on the pb. Is there a back door way to hook up the pb to a TV then a laptop to the TV and record what is being played on the TV? HELP!!! The most I can figure out is that it is so full it wont process data or anything?

Firstly that "connecting to PC with Playbook off" method is called debricking and WILL wipe it completely if you are successful so don't try it again!
Yiu say you can view the videos etc on Playbook but can't sync?
Ok, read the link and learn about moving files from playbook to pc by wifi. You can also delete them.

Once you are completely sure you have all the files safely on pc, you can wipe playbook in
Settings, security. Security wipe.

SnS-Superuse cant delete video files

Hello all,
Is the following behaviour acceptable?
The default SnS superuser account cant delete other user's uploaded video files!!!
Instead, the video file must be deleted by the same user!
How do you tackle with this?
Thank you

I agree that it would be great if the superuser could delete any video file and I think it should be an option, but I have found that only the user that uploaded the file can delete it.

I cant delete videos from my ipad 3 on ios 8.0.2

Don't know what I am doing wrong but have tried toggling 'Show All Videos' on and off. Manage Storage does not even show Videos use anymore. In Videos tried swiping to the left on the video as I used to do with ios 7. Tried clearing recently deleted in albums - Nothing seems to get rid of the videos off my ipad and now storage full!! Help.

Found something that worked for me. In the video app, it showed the videos that were taking up space as still being in the cloud. I tapped it to download and after it was completed, I was able to delete the video through manage storage.

Cant delete videos from ipod

i have some videos on my ipod but when i click on "movies" tab under my ipod when it is connected to itunes, the videos aren't there. how can i see the videos in order to erase them?

You can delete content from your iTunes/computer hard drive after transferring them to the iPod, and for this you need to set your iPod to manage the iPod content manually.
However, storing content on your iPod and nowhere else is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music/videos etc would be erased. If you no longer have them in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that stuff would be lost.
At the very least back up your music and/or videos to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See this about backing up media.

Cant' delete video podcasts

how do i delete these from my ipod
I ALREADY TRIED UN CHECKING THEM IN MY LIBARY

Try highlighting the file or files your wish to delete, press the "delete" key, and select whether you want them "trashed" completely or simply removed from the active library list but left stored on the computer.

I cant delete my ring tones since i got windows7 ity to delete but no dice?

i cant delete ring tones i created on the rt app wizered?

Deletion of apps works as you describe EXCEPT in the case of apps that are pre-loaded as part of the iOS. Apps that are part of the iOS cannot be deleted by the user.
To free storage space, try removing unneeded videos, photos, music that take a very large amount of space.

Upgraded to leopard and Cant delete podcast in itunes please help

after leopard upgrade.....when i try and delete an old played podcast my itunes immediately pops up an error message and says it quit unexpectedly. this happens w. any podcast and i have the current version of itunes, i also recently upgraded to leopard so i dont know if that has something to do with it, but i CAN play music and videos and podcasts, i just cant delete a podcast, or update them?

Good girl.
"though a bit sluggish" 512 to one gig memory is just making it. two gigs you'll be more satisfied or at minimum 1.5 gigs of memory.
1) I can't answer that based upon normal itunes migration. I just keep my mp3 music on hard drives and when I re-do a computer from scratch just copy them over(they are all metatagged) and use the itunes "add to library" function then change the view using itunes, set my equalizer and I'm basically done.
2) Tiger and Leopard bookmark file are interchangeable. user/library/safari/bookmarks. You should always save that file elsewhere and just drag it over to user/library/safari of course the Safari folder is not created until you launch Safari at least once.
3) use Mail's import function, just direct it to where your mailboxes are stored.
4) address book you can do this function and save it after done. In Tiger under user/library/application support/addressbook there will be a file called addressbook.data Now create a new folder(do it on the desktop) and name it TigerData. Copy that addressbook.data file into that new folder. Now re-name that folder to TigerData.abbu in the addressbook program use the file, import, addressbook archive menu item and choose TigerData.abbu Once done save that file for future Leopard installs.

I am about to scream .........I need to delete Videos

I have tried everything , I have right clicked .....no clear button. I tried to go to preference , but i cant click anything under videos . Is there someone out there that can assist me on how to delete videos PLEASE

I don't know where you are trying to delete them from. From itunes or your iPod?
I'm guessing your on Windows. I'm on Mac, but I just select a video and press the delete key. (Maybe backspace on a PC?)
Except in iTunes that will still leave it on your HD, but not listed in the iTunes. To remove from HD, I think I do apple-delete. Or of course you could right click on it and "Show Song File" then just drag it to the trash.

I'm trying to download netflix aand it keeps telling me not emough space to delete videos or pictures but i have no videos and have only 60 pictures. any help?

I'm trying to download netflixs to my ipad but it keeps telling me to delete videos or pictures. I have no videos and have 60 pictures. I need some help.

What may be taking up your iPad's memory may be not photos or videos, but rather music and apps. Music itself should not be that much of a problem but if you have a very large library it will obviously take lots of space. Your iPad tells you to delete photos or videos because you can delete them from the iPad directly, but you cannot delete music until you sync to iTunes. You may also want to try deleting some apps such as games; these usually take lots of space (up to 1GB each). These apps will sync back to your iPad when you have access to a computer once you have freed up enough memory on your iPad.
Hope this helps.

Delete video from iPod touch

So i was experimenting with the iPod touch and I noticed you can delete videos directly from the iPod.
1) Access Videos
2) swipe finger from left to right across the name of a single video (groups wont work)
3) Delete Command Will appear in red
My question is if I press delete does it just delete from the iPod or will it also delete the video from iTunes then next time i sync my iPod touch?

Deletes from iPod Touch, then when resynced, restore's the deleted content.
Yes but this is useful if your iPod is full and you want to buy some music.
You delete a video to make room, download the music.
When you connect to iTunes it syncs the music from the iPod to iTunes and reloads the video, which you can prevent reloading if you want to by changing the sync settings.
