How do I clear out my iTunes...?

I have an 11 inch macbook air laptop. I am trying to clear out some 34gigs of movies/itunes I have stored on the hard drive. I have 2 full TV seasons that I add to weekly, and want to be able to save those episodes. I am running out of space on the 120G hard drive and need some space.
I would like to know how I can open up some space on my har drive. I have tried deleting some of the playlists, but how do I delete the induvidual TV episodes, so I would have to go an re-download them to watch?
Thanks for the help! It is much appreciated!!

Thank you so much for the help, I just did it and found 26G of free space now! More than enough for school work! Thank you!

I entered the incorrect password for my home wifi network and now I can't change it. How do I clear out the wrong password so that I can enter a correct one?

I entered the incorrect password for my home wifi network, and now I can't change it. How do I clear out the wrong password so that I can enter a correct one?

Settings > wi-fi then tap on the little blue arrow next to the network you want to change. You have to tap on the blue arrow and not on the name.
Now at the top tap on "forget this network".
After that, the iPhone will think your home network is a new network and will ask you for the password to connect.

How do I find out where iTunes thinks missing files are?

I have several hundred "missing" files in my iTunes library but they are all actually on the computer. But I don't remember where the were previously. I add dozens of songs at a time to my library all the time and there is no Earthly way for me to constantly remember where they were before. I don't just want to reimport the files because I have several hundred playlists with these files and it would be completely stupid to edit them all one at a time when all I need to do is to move them back to where iTunes thinks they should be. So where is that? The Windows media player has a column that displays file location. Why doesn't iTunes? (This is so stupid. It makes things -not just this- so much easier when you have the file location in the music list in your music player.)
Is there a way to find out where iTunes thinks the missing files should be at?

The exclamation mark means ITunes doesn't think they are anywhere.
If you right click - get info on a song then view the Info tab, you will see where iTunes last used it from.
I'm not a newbie. I know quite a lot about iTunes. You sound like you don't though because if you did you would know that this is not true. If you "right click - get info on a song" (pressing cancel to the Locate popup) "then view the SUMMARY (not info) tab" you will see "Not Available" where the file location usually is. I wouldn't have asked this question if I hadn't gone through the steps already.
Thanks for trying though. Next time, please try the advice before you give it.

You should not have to remember anything about where they were.
I agree.
Are you always moving them around?
When I install a new hard drive. Yes. I generally keep everything organized and I let iTunes keep the folder organized but several years ago I used windows media player to organize my media.
Frankly I don't know HOW the recent songs/videos/etc. go missing. But some do. Maybe I accidentally move a folder without realizing it. Mistakes happen. Then I need to move it back but since I didn't know I did it in the first place I can't possibly be expected to remember where I moved it from.
Do you have iTunes prefs -> Advanced Keep ITunes music folder organized ticked and Copy files to iTunes ... ticked?
*OF COURSE!* Again, I'm not a newbie.
I have several hundred playlists with these files
Why would you have several hundred playlists?
I don't mean to sound rude but you sound like an Apple fanboy. Are you trying to tell me how I should use my own program? The answer to the question is I am a salsa instructor/DJ and I am constantly adding songs and videos to my library. Every month I have various salsa events, classes and performances that I do. I use my iPhone for the music. I need to maintain the playlists because students/teachers/studios/clubs/bars/churches/etc. call me back and want a repeat of the great salsa night I gave them a year ago. Naturally my playlists are highly organized into folders. So, I still have them and I need them.
Apple has its own ideas about how people should use its stuff but everyone is unique and our needs therefore are unique too. Apple doesn't realize this and still wants us to do things "the Apple way" even though "the Apple way" only works well for people who want their hand held through everything. This is why I say you sound like a fanboy. You don't know my situation and question if I need hundreds of playlists. I do.
I just need an answer to the question.
Thank you for your reply though. It gave me hope, for a time.

How do i clear out iCloud?

How does one clear out what has been backed up on iCloud? I'd like to make room and clean things up but haven't figured out how to see what's out there

How do I clear out my Camera Roll?

How can I clear out all the photos in my Camera Roll? (Other than manually selecting each one and hitting delete)

When there are photos and/or videos in the Camera Roll, the iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer, and can be imported and deleted from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete as with any other digital camera.
If you use iPhoto on your Mac for photo storage and management and for importing photos from any other digital camera, you can use iPhoto for this. iPhoto includes an option to delete the photos from a digital camera after the import process is complete and the same for the iPhone's Camera Roll. Or you can use the Image Capture application located in your Applications folder for this which includes the same option after the import process is complete.

How can I sign out of iTunes after download finishes

How can I sign out of itunes or bthe app store after a dowload completes?

Only if you set up the computer to require separate computer logins. It is tedious to retrofit that.
To help avoid problems you can turn off autosyncing so that you have to overtly start a sync. To turn off go iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods...".

How do you clear out a tree control?

I am editing items in a tree control, when the editing is complete, I re-build the tree to represent what I have after the edit. My process of deleting the items one-by-one has worked fine until the tree scrolled off the top, then, when I select the top-left item and delete everything under it, I miss the ones that have scrolled off the top.
What's the method/property I should use to clean out a tree in one operation? (before rebuilding)
...Dan

Tray Drool!
Originally I had, "How do you clear out a tree?". That's why I added "control".

How do i find out my itunes account balance

How do i find out my itunes account balance? Thanks

There is no sign of my Apple ID in the iTunes Store, no matter how many times I log in.
If I click on the "Purchase History" from my itunes receipt email, it redirect me to the itunes download page, everytime!
ALL I want is the BALANCE - How hard can it be!?! (...and purchase history would be nice!).
But instead the only options under Account are:
Update your Apple ID email address and password
Change your default shipping or billing info
Update Express Checkout settings
Manage email subscriptions
And the "Store - View Order History" knows nothing about itunes order history!
And all the iTunes links, keep sending me to the download page!!!
Sigh.

How does one log out of itunes?

How does one log out of itunes on the iphone?

You don't, just exit the application.
If you are planning on letting your children play with it wait 15 minutes before handing it to them and any purchases will require the password to be entered.
And go into Restrictions and turn inapp purchases off.

How do I log out of itunes on my computer and sign into a different account?

How do I log out of iTunes and sign into a different account? My mom just gave me her computer, and I need to upload my own itunes account on the mac and delete her account.

To log her out try going to the iTunes Store, click on the account name in the upper right corner, and then click "Sign Out". Next, you'll need to sign in by clicking on the same button in the upper right and then enter your account information. Once you're logged in I think you should be able to sync your music files or download your past purchases from the store to update your computer.

How do I clear out a "stuck" app update?

I installed a couple apps from my iTunes library. The app store showed them as needing to be updated, but they kept getting stuck (little circle stops spinning). Tried Xing them them out on the pane in iTunes that shows that screen on the iPad, but never really removed them. How can I fix my little mess?
Thanks!

Update apps with iTunes (computer) and sync to iPad to clear out the update.

How can I find out which iTunes library my computer is using?

I have a desktop Mac Mini at home that my wife uses and a MacBook Pro that I use at home and in the office. I wanted to be able to access all the music we have on both machines from both machines, even when I am out and about and have no network connection for my MacBook Pro. So, I uploaded all the music we had on iTunes to Dropbox, and this now syncs on both computers. So, whenever either of us adds music to iTunes, the songs are saved on both machines within the Music folder in Dropbox, which syncs in real time across both computers. So far so good.
However, what I am finding is that, when either of us adds new music to our respective iTunes, it only shows on the computer on which it's been added. So, within a matter of weeks, our computers no longer show the same music in our respective iTunes windows, even though the music is present on both machines in the synchronised Dropbox folder.
I realised that the computers must start using different iTunes library to each other when new songs are added to either machine. So, I figured that, when we add music to one of the computers, if I pointed iTunes on the computer that has the less up-to-date music to the latest library that is being used by the computer with the more up-to-date music, this would ensure that both machines showed the same music in their repective iTunes windows. The problem is that I cannot work out which iTunes library is being used by the computer with the more up-to-date music on it. I know how to choose a different library when I open iTunes (hold down alt) but that doesn't help, because I all I want to do is to FIND OUT WHICH LIBRARY IS BEING USED BY ITUNES ON THE COMPUTER WITH THE MORE UP-TO-DATE MUSIC. I simply can't find a way of getting iTunes to show me which library it is using, although this must be the simplest thing in the world. An additional issue is that I want to playlists we have created to appear on both machines - will that be the case if I point the less up-to-date iTunes (on my wife's Mac Mini) to the library of the more up-to-date iTunes (on my MacBook Pro), since my computer with the more up-to-date iTunes shows all the playlists, whereas my wife's doesn't?
So, can anyone help? Plus if anyone knows of any software that can automatically ensure that two different Macs both use the same and most up-to-date iTunes library and therefore always show the lastest music collection, whichever machine the music has been added to, that would be fantastic. Thanks.

You could have all the computers point to the same library but it can't be opened by more than one at any time.
No answer for knowing which library is in use other than selecting it at startup. This question gets asked here occasionally but I don't think it is a high-demand feature since most people have just one library. I guess you could put in an empty playlist with the library name so you have an identifier.

There is a pdf file explaining how to use the script and what it will do.
See attached files.

Monica, I know the Normal Character Style in Illustrator must be defined. But my question is about the Normal Paragraph Style, not the Normal Character Style. As Larry just said, in most of my documents, and in my New Document Profiles, these fields in the Normal Paragraph Style are blank (undefined), so I know this is possible. In a few older documents I'm converting, the Normal Paragraph Style has a defunct font, and even though my Normal Character Style is correctly defined with the current font, it's creating some weird behavior.
Larry, it doesn't appear to be the document itself, it just appears to be not knowing what the right keystroke combo is to clear it. Just make a new file from a Document Profile where the Normal Paragraph Style does not define one of those font fields, define a font and/or font size, save, then reopen the paragraph style settings and try to clear any field that has been set. I can't clear it, I can only change the font.
