How can I delete movies from my iPad that it thinks are in the cloud?

I noticed that I was running out of space on my 32 GB iPad Air running iOS 7.1, so I looked at my pictures and moved them to iCloud and then deleted most of my un-used apps. This did not help in the gaining back a ton of space. So I looked at my videos. I have purchased content from itunes through the apple tv, and have watched some of it on my iPad. It is not clear to me if it downloads those files when I do this or if they are streaming like on my Apple TV.
Anyway, when I hit the edit button in the video section none of the videos display the little "x" symbol letting you know that you can delete them. Instead, all of them show the "cloud" symbol even the movies and TV shows I watched. So I then turned on airplane mode and went back to Videos. I thought no wi-fi = no connection to the cloud = list of videos stored locally. This is where it gets weird. The majority of the "Purchased" items normally shown with the "cloud" symbol were not there, however the videos that I had watched were listed and still had the "cloud" symbol on them. They even played in airplane mode like they were stored locally. The problem occurs when I go to delete them. When I hit the edit button I cannot select these videos, it is treating them as if they are in the cloud even though I know they are taking up space locally.
Is anybody elese having this problem?

Based on previous discussions and in this thread I went to I went to Settings > General > Usage > Storage > Show all Apps > Videos.  My iPad Air indicates no data.  Sync movies and TV are unchecked in iTunes. 
iTunes is showing I have 12.61GB of data and 92 videos. 
Any other ideas?

    how can I delete photos from my ipad that came in when I connected for the first time to my pc? HELP

    Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced -  and then re-syncing.
    Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
    Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
    Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
    If you want to remove all of the Photos - uncheck the Sync Photos from Heading
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
    If you are using iTunes 11 - this will be helpful, Setting up syncing in Windows.

  • How can I delete movie from my itunes

    How can I delete movie from my itunes on cpmputer?

    I think I found a solution to this problem. Go into the Video app and tap on TV Shows and then tap on the icon for the show that is downloading. Next to each episode, there is a circle with a square in the middle of it. Tap the square next to each episode and it will disappear both from that list and and from the downloading queue in the iTunes app. When you want to download a particular episode, go back into the show in the Video season and tap on Show Complete Season. Now each episode has its own Download button.
    Needless to say, it is insane that when you redeem a season purchase on the iPad, it insists on downloading the entire season.

  • How can I delete music from my iPad Air other than by one song at a time? I am still on iOS 7.

    How can I delete music from my iPad Air other than one song at a time? I would like to delete a few albums.  I am still on iOS 7.

    You can either sync the iPhone and iPad to a computer that has your music on it and make sure the U2 album is not on the computer. Or you can delete all of the music from both devices (settings > general > usage > manage storage > music. Then redownload your music from your purchase history on the iTunes store
    Also the U2 album is attached to your apple id. To remove it, you will need to go here ---> https://itunes.com/soi-remove

  • How can i delete movies from my macboook to make space and keep them on icloud?

    How can i delete movies from my macboook to make space and keep them on icloud?

    Since iTunes Match nor iCloud supports storing video content at this time (other than music videos purchased from the iTunes Store) what you want to do is not possible. There may be other cloud storage solutions out there, but none that integrate with iTunes.
    FYI, if any of the movies are purchased from the iTunes Store the service Apple calls iTunes in the Cloud by be a partial solution for you. However it is strongly recommended that keep a local backup of all your purchased media and not depend solely on a third party (Apple) to keep your data safe.

  • How do I delete photos from an IPad that was synced with a Macbook?

    Hope someone on here can help!
    We own both a Macbook and an IPad.  When we linked them, the IPad brought over ALL (like, around 2000) photos from the Macbook.  I would like to delete these from the IPad, but it won't let me.
    Any suggestions on what I need to do?
    Thanks!

  • How can I delete photos from my iPad without affecting my journal in iPhoto?

    Hi,
    I have recently been on a long trip creating a journal in iPhoto as I go, uploading many gb of photos using the camera connection kit.
    I love the way I can view my journal and tap on photos to see them in full screen and maximum quality.
    I am now home and need to delete all the photos from my iPad after uploading them to my mac. However when I do this, I can no longer view the photos in my journal in full screen. How can I keep the journal looking as great as it is, without not having to go through and delete only pictures not included in my journal? There are many thousand pics on the iPad now so I need to delete them all...
    Please help!
    Paul

    Add the photos you want to your journal.  Then, you delete them from your ipad and they will NOT be deleted from your journal (One of my journals has 1000+ pics of my garden, so I have to delete pics on my 32G ipad).  I've been doing this for 5+ months and never had a problem--all my pics stay in my journal--but note, that every once in a while after I delete the photos from my ipad (via camera roll/photostream-I don't unse iPhoto to delete) it takes up to half an hour for the photos to resync (so sometimes it looks like the photos are missing in the journal but they ALWAYS come back).  Do a test journal and add a page of photos to it.  Then, delete them from your ipad and wait a bit and see what happens.  It always works fine for me, but you could do that just to be on the safe side.

  • How can I delete music from my iPad mini?

    I want to delete music from my iPad mini, as in from the library but I can't seem to be able to. Does anyone know how to do this?

    If the music is downloaded/synced to the Music app (i.e. it's not in the cloud, it doesn't have the cloud icon against it) then you should be able to delete tracks by swiping/dragging across them from right-to-left.  If you have iOS 8 on your iPad then you can use the swipe/drag to also delete albums and/or artists, or you can delete tracks / albums / artists via Settings > General > Usage > Manage Storage (under 'storage' heading) > Music. You can also delete all music via Settings > General > Usage > Music on iOS 7, Settings > General > Usage > Manage Storage > Music on iOS 8.
    If the music does have the cloud against it then you can stop cloud music showing via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music (under 'show all') 'off'
    You can also delete music when connected to your computer's iTunes, either by changing your sync selection if using automatic syncing, or by selecting Music under the iPad 'device' on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes (option-comman-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC, should enable/disable the sidebar) and using the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and delete music

  • How can I delete mail from my iPad

    How can I prevent 'mail' from my MacPro Mail program from being exported to, and imported by my iPad?

    Huh??  The mail application on your iPad is a mirror image of the mail server on your Mac.  If you don't open a message on your Mac, it will be on your iPad unopened.  If you open it on your Mac, it will appear as opened on you iPad and vice-ersa.  If you delete it on your Mac, it will delete from your iPad and vice-versa.  If this is not how you want your mail to work, I would recommend removing the mailbox from your iPad.  Maybe I'm missing what you're trying to accomplish?
