HELP! How can I delete hidden video files?

If anyone could help, it would be much appreciated:
I have a 64GB iPad (non-jailbroken) and used a video App called gplayer to move several large video lectures (about 30GB) via wifi FTP to my iPad so that I could play the files using gplayer directly off the iPad (which worked VERY well)....
...until gplayer had an update, and now for some reason I guess their filestructure changed, so my previous videos are no longer seen
(yet I now still physically on the iPad taking up 30GB space!)
Now, I need to find those files and DELETE them so I can free up the space...unfortunately I cannot find them using Windows File Explorer (I checked all 100 folders in the DCIM folders...which only had my photos).
I tried to email gplayer support, but they haven't given me a reply yet.
I already tried to UNINSTALL the gplayer App, and reinstall it, but It did not fix the problem.
Does anyone know a way to view the full iPad file structure, and find the "hidden" files so I can delete them off my iPad?
I know the files are there, as under my Settings/General/About icon,
the "Videos" section shows that there are "60" files.
(I don't have any Videos in the Videos App that show up, or have ever used iTunes to upload videos!!)
Thanks for any help!!!

thats a good thought.  I will try to sync the iPad physically to the computer (i haven't done this in a while, since everything has been wirelessly done)
... but i have hundreds of apps, which will take a long time.  Wanted to see if there were other methods before going down this route.  I guess I'll have to check the "sync my apps" box in iTunes and try it out ... ?

  • How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?

    How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?  These files were created on my MBA and when I changed the media type to iTunesU and then copied it to my iPad via iTunes, they did not appear.  I can see them using 3rd party software, but they don't have delete functionality.
    Thanks
    York

    Interesting note:  I can see the files when I use the search function, but when I tap either file, I return to my home screen.  The video does not open.  I can transfer the file to my MBA, and it plays fine, but I cannot figure out a way to delete them.

  • How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11

    How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11?

    I've met the problem too before. but i solved it with  Audio Converter Mac instead of iMovie. If you have similar situation that just want to keep audio but not video, and if your file format is not workable in iMovie, you can use the Audio Converter for help too. it can easily help to extract audio soundtrack from any video format. Or if you need to convert one audio format to another, it is a good choice too, because it supports many common audio output formats.

  • How can I delete the video tracks from an iDVD project?

    I try to use "canc" botton: the video track is deleted on menu, but when I try to insert a new video, iDVD (7.1.2) alert me:  "The maximum number of tracks (presentations and movies) is 99. You can not create other tracks."
    Then, how can I delete the video tracks (or presentations) really?
    Help me, please!

    how can you delete a video off your iphone 4s which has ios7?

    Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

  • How can I delete an old file from my library on iTunes

    Occasionally I have to replace PDF manuals with ones that have been updated.  But after I sync the new file the old one remains on my Mac itunes library.  How can I delete the old file?  So far all I do is deselect the old file but it's still there.  Sooner or later there will be more old files then current ones making it hard to manage.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can do this with or without the iPad connected to your Mac.
    Launch iTunes on the Mac. Click on Books under the Library heading. Click on the PDFs. Then click on the PDF that you want to delete in order to select it, and go to Edit>Delete and follow the on screen prompts.
    if you are using iTunes 11 and do not have the sidebar enabled, and wish to do so, go to View>Show sidebar or use the keyboard shortcut OPTION+Command+S.
    If you do not want to enable the sidebar, the library items can be accessed in the button in the upper left corner of the iTunes window.

    How do I delete photos from my Photo Stream in iCloud?
    Individual photos cannot be deleted from your Photo Stream. You can, however, delete all the photos in your Photo Stream by clicking the Reset Photo Stream button in your account at icloud.com. The Reset Photo Stream button will instantly delete all Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud, but it will not remove any Photo Stream photos that have already been pushed to your devices."

  • How can i delete a video in photos of ipad 2? there is no delete icon!

    How can i delete a video in photos of ipad 2? there is no delete icon!

    They are deleted in the same way as photos, which are deleted by : only photos/videos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/wesites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo/video in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. Photos/videos that were synced from your computer are deleted by removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing.

  • How can I capture AVHDC video files from Panasonic HD video camera??

    I just received a Panasonic HS300 video camera and can't copy the video files on my computer.
    I see several files in the CAM_HDD camera folder on the desktop. But the only relevant files for me to copy are the JPG photos. I don't see any video files.
    In the specs of the camera they write that I should have a Mac with an Intel processor. Is that the problem???
    I even tried to copy the files on a PC (I succeeded) and then brought them on my computer with a USB stick. It didn't work: again, the only relevant files that I could see were the JPG, no trace of any video (but they were indeed on that USB stick!!).
    How can I access those video files and use them in Final Cut Pro, or even iMovie??
    I'm becoming afraid that i won't be able to use that camera unless I buy a new Mac now!!!
    thanks!

    you need this: http://www.shedworx.com/voltaichd
    the native iMovie / FC AVCHD codecs are only for Intel Macs, the format is a highly compressed HD format which needs to be unpacked & converted for use.
    The powerbook may not be up to editing these files. expect a slow process of exporting & working with the footage.
