How do I delete a movie off my iPhone that doesn't show up in iTunes?

I purchased this movie on iTunes at least 3 years ago, and both my brother and I recall deleting it. It doesn't show up in my iTunes (therefore I can't sync it on or off), nor my brother's. And I updated my iPhone 4s to iOS 7 a couple of days ago, and I just realised now that I have this movie on my phone, of which no one knows where it has come from. how do I delete it and where would it have come from if it's not on my computer?
P.S. I only sync my phone on my Mac OS X.

.  Another strange thing is that in ITunes "Photos" at the bottom where you see the colored visuals of what applications are using space "Other" consumes more than half my space.
that can sometimes happen, when trying to update the software failed. Then partially downloaded updates will take up a lot of space. Photos synced to iDevices can only be removed by syncing again.
If syncing again with just one small album with a single photo selected will not remove the synced albums, back up the iPhone to iTunes and restore the device to factory settings:
      iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
Restoring should get rid of the "other" and the synced albums.

  • How do I delete photo albums from my IPhone that don't show up in Itunes?

    I have an IMac recently upgraded to OSX 10.9.  My Iphone is a 4S running 7.0.4.  I know how to manage songs and photos using ITunes, but somehow my entire photo library has been synched to my IPhone.  The odd thing is the photos don't show up when I run the Preview Application (one way to remove photos from the IPhone).  Only the Camera Roll photos show up there.  And in ITunes I do not have any albums checked to synch.  I have no idea how the albums got onto my phone, and no idea how to remove them. 
    In ITunes, I make sure no photo albums are selected, and I choose "synch," but they just won't remove from the Iphone.   When I look under "Settings" "General" on my Iphone sometimes it shows over 8,000 photos and sometimes 2,000 photos.  But the albums never are removed.  Another strange thing is that in ITunes "Photos" at the bottom where you see the colored visuals of what applications are using space "Other" consumes more than half my space.
    I'm about ready to do a factory reset.  Can anyone help????

  • HT204074 How do you delete a song off your ipad that is not listed on the itunes song list?

    Some songs came already loaded with my new ipad air that I hate and want to delete but can't locate the directory where they reside.  I downloaded a file manager app but it only had the option to add new folders, not access the one's already on the ipad.  I signed up for icloud and even bought itunes match at the direction of a blog someone wrote as a way to access the icloud song list and delete the songs.  I deleted the album purchase (that I never made in the first place) listed in the purchase section of iTunes.  The songs are not listed on my PC version of itunes so I can't delete them from there (right click and choose delete).  They are only on the ipad itself.  Why is it so difficult to simply remove a file from your ipad?  Is there a way to delete these songs or am I stuck with them on my ipad music list?  I reset the entire setup thinking it would erase everything on my ipad but that didn't work either.  Please advise.  Thanks.

    Does it play on the iPad?
    What happens when you swipe it left and fight? You should get a Delete or Remove button. If Remove then there will be a cloud icon by the song after you remove the sound file from the iPod.
    If it is U2 album then:
    Remove U2 Album

  • How do you delete duplicate songs from your iPhone that do not show up in your iTunes library?

    everytime i purchase songs on itunes and sync them to my iphone 4, the songs downloads twice. one as the actual song, and the second one doesnt do anything. when you click on it, it just skips to the next song and doesnt play anything. also this second song has this cirlce dot thing next to it when i am scrolling through my songs in my music...so how do i get rid of this second download? its really annoying to have and it wont let me delete it off my phone. alsoooo since it doesnt show up in my itunes library, i cant delte it off there either! HELP PLEASE

    On the springboard, locate the app you want to delete. For this example, I’ll use WeatherBug.
    Tap and hold down the icon of the application you want to delete. After a few seconds your screen will start to “wiggle” and an X will appear next to each of the apps you’ve installed via the App Store.
    Tap the X next to the icon of the app you want to remove. When prompted, selectDelete.
    And now it’s gone.
    If the application is listed in your iTunes Applications as well, you’ll want to remove it from there – or else it will re-install the next time you sync. Alternately you can keep the app in your iTunes Applications, and set iTunes not to sync all applications, just the ones you want to keep. See the Applications tab of your device the next time it’s connected in iTunes for syncing options.

    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 do I delete a movie from my iPhone 5s

    How do I delete a movie from my iPhone 5s.  I have tried swiping it to get a delete message, but it's not working.  Help!

    HI,
    is it a movie you have shot yourself or is it one you have downloaded?
    if it's a download then you need to uninstall via iTunes, just uncheck the movie and then sync,
    if it is one you have shot yourself then :
    Tap select top right: tap the video you want to delete: tap the bin.
    good luck and hope this helps.

  • HT1711 can i delete a movie from my computer that i've previously purchased in itunes and then download again when I want to watch it?

    Can i delete a movie from my computer that i've previously purchased in itunes and then download again when I want to watch it?  Seems like this would help me manage storage space.

    Yes, provided the movie is still in the iTunes Store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

    oh and this message is also on my iphone 5
    now with the phone I do have some options that I dont see with my iPad 3. but I stil do not see a way to delete this dang conversation
    I get the same message when I open it from my iphone 5..."there was a problem connecting to facebook" there isnt a problem though
    if i swipe left I see standard Friends at top, below it listsclose friends, family, then a help center, account settings, privacy settings, log out, etc. I dug around there for a while but didnt see any option to delete messages.
    if i swipe right I see the word Favorites at the top. above that is a search option. to the right is a weird little symbol kinda like a wheel with gears on it. if i click that it gives me the option of Turn off Chat or Cancel. I did both, it just greys out the friends list that appears. If I click a name, the previous conversation appears. nothing to delete from there, just contact info if I click the i symbol or back to news feed.

    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Before you delete, find out if you'll be able to download the song you deleted again (it depends on where you live). To delete a song:
    Tap the Music app.
    Tap the Songs category.
    Swipe left to right over the song you want to delete.
    Tap Delete.
    Apple - iTunes - Match

    Does iTunes Match stream or download songs?
    On a computer, any songs stored in iCloud will stream over the air when played, though you can download them at any time by clicking the iCloud download button. iOS devices will start playing tracks from iCloud as they download and will store them so that you can listen to them later even if you don’t have a network connection. Apple TV only streams songs.

  • HT4915 How to permanently delete a movie from iCloud, so that it can no longer be accessed (not simply hidden)?

    I am looking to remove items from the hidden folder in my iTunes account.
    There is a solution for deleting music, however, a different prompt screen when deleting a movie does not provide the same solution.
    Following is the prompt when deleting a movies
    1st - "Are you sure you want to delete the selected movie from your iTunes library?"
    This movie will also be deleted from any iPod, iPhone, or iPad which synchronizes with your iTunes library. ( - ) Do not ask me again.
    2nd - "Do you want to move the selected movie (which was downloaded from the iTunes Store) to the Trash, or keep it in the iTunes Media folder?"
    Only files in the iTunes Media folder will be moved to the Trash. (Keep File) (Move to Trash)

    Movies are not stored in iCloud. That's the reason you get a different prompt.
    When you delete a movie from iTunes the 1st. option above is on instances where you have the same movie in other mobile devices.
    2nd. option allow you to delete the movie either from iTunes list (Keep File) only or remove from your computer completely (Move to Trash) and from the iTunes too.
    Now, if you purchase a movie from iTune Store you can safetely delete it from your computer (Move to Trash option) and stream it later. (Check this link for how to: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.)
    Let me know if this help to answer your question.
