How Can I Remove Purchased Content from my Apple TV?

I have content that I purchased through iTunes and it's stored on my Apple TV but I'm selling it so I need to move that content to one of my Macs. I can't find any instructions on how to do it. Can anyone help me out? It's the 40GB model running the latest software and it's connected to my Wi-Fi network. Thanks.

Content purchased on ATV should automatically sync to a computer you connected it with. If you have not alreday done so, in ATV go to Settings -> Computer. Select the computer that has your iTunes library, follow the instructions and sync. Quickly disable syncing of music, photos, movies etc. so that you dont move content from iTunes to ATV. The purchases on your ATV will sync back to your iTunes anyway.
If you already have a computer connected to your ATV, everything should have synced alreday. You then need to discionnect your iTunes from your ATV (Settings -> Computers) and this will automatically erase your ATV.

Can i remove purchased content from one itunes account to a new account?

i have 3 ipads on my one icloud account and my one phone my family shares the content on the 3 ipads.
I am getting my oldest child a i phone and want to move some of the shared content to her new phone and one if the ipads.to her own itunes account.
can i select some of the purchased content and move to a new itunes account? Please help

Purchased content is permanently tied to the ID used to purchase it and connot be moved to another ID. You can still sync it to her new phone from an authorized computer. If she is moving to a different computer, you can also authothize the new computer for the ID used to purchase it, then use home sharing to copy the purchased media to the new iTiunes library, where she can then synch it to her new phone.

How can I removed purchased music from my iPhone?

I purchase most of my music on my phone but i dont want it all to remain on my phone. i want it to be on my computer I also want to be able to only put playlists on my phone. for some reason it keeps duplicating songs that ive purchased. how to i fix it without entirely deleting the song from everything?

If you buy them on your phone, they're going to be downloaded to your phone.
If you buy them on a different device, and want to make sure they don't get downloaded to your phone: Settings >> iTunes and App Store >> turn off "Music" under Automatic Downloads.
To delete a song, answering the title of your post, swipe your finger sideways on the song and selected delete. If you have "Show All Music" turned on in Settings >> Music, they'll still appear, but not be local on the device.
I don't sync playlists, so can't answer that part. Maybe someone else can.

And anything on the incorrect album covers?

HT5557 how can you remove all books from books purchased file

how can you remove all ibook from purchased file

When I connected my iPhone, it automatically synced right away. I did click on the iPhone button and saw the contents of my iPhone including the Books. When I clicked that 'Books' button. But since the book in question was not on my iPhone, it did not show up in the list so I could not select it like you suggested. Therefore I could not sync that book to my iPhone. Thanks for the help though.
The good news is I did manage to get the book on to my iPhone.
When her book came out for preorder about a year or two ago, I looked for it in the iTunes store and preordered it. About a week after it came out, I found what was basically the same book for a dollar more. ($7.99 and $8.99) I figured there must be something additional (features) in the $8.99 book. So I bought it too. As far as I could tell though, they were exactly the same. So I decided to hide one of them so they would not both show up in my Library. Anyway, I went to my iTunes/iBooks account and managed the hidden books area. I unhid the Demi book and then it showed up in my iCloud to download on my iPhone. Now they are both on my computer so I need to figure out which one is the other one and hide it. So then I can delete it from my computer just have the one that is on my iPhone on both systems. But at least I found a way to get a copy on my iPhone.

Hey there Matt.dvs1,
Although there is not a way to remove past purchases from your iTunes account completely, you can hide them so that you don't have to see them if you don't want to. This article will help you do that:
iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
Hide your purchases
Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
Go to the iTunes Store.
Click Purchased from the Quick Links section on the right side of the iTunes Store.
Choose a content type by clicking Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, or Books from the top of the window.
A list of your purchased items for the content type you are viewing will appear. Mouse over the item you want to hide until an X appears its top-left corner.
A confirmation dialog will appear once you click the X.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

HT202667 how can I remove credit card from apple id ?

i don't want to use apple id with credit card anymore i purchased enough apps for my apple device so now i wanna remove it so how can i remove credit card from apple id

On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link. If you are doing it on your iPhone then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.

How can I add the content from a iPod Nano to a new iTunes account

how can I add the content from a iPod Nano to a new iTunes account

On the computer in iTunes log into her Apple ID and then see if recent purchases are shown by clicking on her name in iTunes, entering her password and then selecting the option. If there is nothing there then she bought that music with a different Apple ID.
You can use TouchCopy to move all the songs on the iPod to the computer. Then try to play one of the purchase songs and it should show the account used to purchase it and ask for the password.
