How do I delete camera movies imported through the camera usb connector

I imported a bunch of photos from my Canon 7D into my iPad with the camera connection kit.  There were MOVs in there as well and now I can't delete them from the ipad.  They show up as a grey box that says MOV.  I can delete the photos I've imported, but not the MOV files.  Any thoughts?

After you complete the download a screen comes up asking you if you want to delete the Photos from the camera
A recommended workflow though is to not delete them there but wait until you are sure they are really in iPhoto ok and then use the camera's delete (or format) command to reformat the camera media

  • Iphoto: How to safely delete or move photos.  I have over 7000 photos.  When I deleted some, I found that the event still shows up with a blank frame.  Can I move some photos to an external hard drive but leave the pointer in iphoto?

    iphoto: How to safely delete or move photos.  I have over 7000 photos.  I would really like to move tsome of the older photos to an external hard drive. (They are backed up in Time Machine, but I like the immediacy of having them available.)  So question 1 -  is it possible to split the iphoto library so that the directory tree points to an external drive in some cases?  And if that doesn't work--I am willing to export and delete some of these photos.  However, an earlier delete left me with events that have a name in the event folder, but no photos.  Question 2 -- How do I properly delete photos so that all references disappear?
    example:

    Warning: Time Machine is not an Archiving application. It keeps rolling back ups. That means if you delete something from the source Mac it will eventually be also deleted from Time Machine. How long that takes depends on the amount of disk space TM has. So, remember, backing up in Time Machine is not the same as Archiving.
    For the blank thumbnails: This can happen if you try delete too many photos at one go. Experienced users suggest you should delete in batches of 100 or so.
    Yes you can split the Library, where some of the Masters are stored locally and some on an external disk, but really, you don't want to do that. iPhoto's file management tools are limited at best, and if the path to the files changes then you could find yourself repairing the links to the files - all of them, one by one.
    Better: Have your entire Library on an External Drive.
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    If you want to have a smaller library on your internal disk:
    Here's one way to do what you want:
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    Now you have two full versions of the Library.
    3. On the Internal library, trash the Events you don't want there
    Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
    Some Notes:
    As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
    You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using iPhoto Library Manager

  • 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.

  • How do I delete a movie (not bought from iTunes) and have it actually deleted from the library as well?

    How do I delete a movie (not bought from iTunes) and have it actually deleted from the library as well, I keep deleting stuff from iTunes to try and free up some space only to find the file still in the library?

    It depends upon what preferences settings you use.  Most people use default settings so when you delete an item it asks you if you want to get rid of the file too.
    If iTunes absolutely refuses to get rid of the file (I have never heard of this by the way) you can always go to the media folder or wherever the file is located and drag it to the trash yourself.

  • How do I delete a movie from the iTunes-cloud?

    How do I delete a movie from the iTunes-cloud? I don't want to hide it I want to delete it even if it means I can't download it again..

    Oh sure you can delete it from the computer. I thought that you wanted to permanently delete it so that you can never access it again. In fact, in some countries, you can delete movies and then download that again at no charge as long as you use the same Apple ID.
    Launch iTunes on your computer and click on the movies tab under the Library heading, find the movie and right click on it and select Delete.

  • 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.

  • HT204370 How do I delete a movie to watch another?

    I bought the twilight series. I can only download and watch one movie at a time. How do I delete a movie so I can download another on my iPad?

    Tap and hold on the movie you want to delete in the Videos app and then tap the "x" that will appear. Or, if you're synching from iTunes, just uncheck the movie you want to remove in Movies tab.
    iCloud is a syncronization service, primarily, and really doesn't help all that much in the case of insufficient space on your iPad.
    Regards.

    How do I delete rental movie from I pad?

    Hello DAS.
    Normally the rental will disappear after about 48 hours after viewing, but if you want to delete it now then check out the quoted section for the step by step process.

    If you delete a movie rental, you'll have to pay to rent it again—unless, of course, you rented the movie on your Mac or PC using iTunes and synced it over to your iPad. To delete a movie rental:
    Tap the Videos app.
    Tap Edit.
    Tap the "x" on the movie rental you want to delete.

  • How to have iPad (iOS 5) import only the JPEG from a RAW JPEG pair?

    I have an iPad 2 16 GB, running iOS 5. I also have a Canon EOS 7D. I purchased a CF Card Reader for the iPad (see http://store.micgadget.com/card-readers/280-ipad-2-cf-card-camera-connection-kit .html) so that I can view and edit photos quickly in the field, without having to lug my laptop around. To make this easier, I set my camera to shoot RAW+JPEG. I shoot with the smallest JPEG files possible, still a relatively large for the iPad 2,592x1,728, with the idea that I'd only import the JPEG files to the iPad, but still have the RAW files to work with when I get back to my computer. This works great with one exception: the iPad doesn't allow me to import only the JPEG files, but grabs the RAW files along with them. As you can imagine, this fills up my iPad rather quickly, and takes quite a bit longer to import than if it only grabbed the JPEGs.
    So here is my question: How do I have my iPad import only the JPEGs from the RAW+JPEG pairs on the memory card?
    One workaround that helps slightly. If I connect my iPad to my computer after the import, I can go in via Image Capture, select all the RAW images and delete them, leaving the JPEGs behind. This is an underwhelming solution, but does save space after the fact.

    What you are seeing is how Safari works now in iOS 5. There is no way to get that icon in Safari now. There other much better browsers available in the App Store. Look at iCab Mobile, Mercury, Atomic, ....
    I have been running iOS 5x for so long now, that I don't even remember if that icon did appear in earlier iOS versions

  • How do you delete a VIP mailbox from the mail app?

    How do you delete a VIP mailbox from the mail app?

    From Mail help:
    Make a sender a VIP
    To keep track of messages you receive from especially important people, make them VIPs in Mail. You can have up to 100 VIPs.
    To make someone a VIP, move the pointer to the left of the sender’s name in the message header and click the star that appears. You can also move the pointer over the sender’s email address, click the arrow that appears, and choose “Add to VIPs” from the pop-up menu.A mailbox for the VIP is added to the Favorites bar. For example, if you make Dad a VIP sender, his messages are displayed in a VIP mailbox titled Dad.
    To remove VIP status from a sender, click the VIP’s star in a message. The star is removed and the sender’s VIP mailbox is removed from the Favorites bar.
    If a VIP has several email addresses in Contacts, messages from any of those addresses will appear in the VIP’s mailbox.
    If you use iCloud Contacts, your VIPs are available on your other Mac computers that use iCloud Contacts and have OS X Mountain Lion installed.
    So to remove a VIP mailbox, you would have to remove all its people, and then exit mail.
