How do I delete videos (.m4v) files from Home Videos in iTunes

I have some .m4v video files in a folder called "Home Videos". How do I delete the files from my iTunes (version 11.2)? There doesn't seem to be an option to do that. I would also want the library file to be updated to reflect the deletion.
File Path:
/Public/Shared/iTunes/iTunes/iTunes Media/Home Videos/
Thank you,
Tim

  • How can I delete an old file from my library on iTunes

    Occasionally I have to replace PDF manuals with ones that have been updated.  But after I sync the new file the old one remains on my Mac itunes library.  How can I delete the old file?  So far all I do is deselect the old file but it's still there.  Sooner or later there will be more old files then current ones making it hard to manage.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can do this with or without the iPad connected to your Mac.
    Launch iTunes on the Mac. Click on Books under the Library heading. Click on the PDFs. Then click on the PDF that you want to delete in order to select it, and go to Edit>Delete and follow the on screen prompts.
    if you are using iTunes 11 and do not have the sidebar enabled, and wish to do so, go to View>Show sidebar or use the keyboard shortcut OPTION+Command+S.
    If you do not want to enable the sidebar, the library items can be accessed in the button in the upper left corner of the iTunes window.

    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

  • How to upload words, exel, PDF file from the pc via itune to the iPad, and where will the uploaded file be saved? In the apps?

    How to upload words, exel, PDF file from the pc via itune to the iPad, and where will the uploaded file be saved? In the apps?

    You will need an app (or apps) on your iPad that is capable of reading the documents, as they will be saved with the app - if you don't have such an app then there is nothing to transfer them to or to read/access them.
    One method of transferring them is toconnect your iPad to your computer's iTunes, select it's app tab, and then scroll to the bottom of it - you should the apps That you've got that are capable of file-sharing (if you've got any).  Selecting/high-lighting one of them should then allow you to add files to it via the box to the right of it.
    An alternative way to get the documents onto your iPad is if the app that you want to transfer them to has a wifi setting, which will then allow you to transfer the documents wirelessly. You can also send the documents to yourself as attachments and then use Mail's 'open in' facility to copy them into your chosen app.
    Edit : more info on file sharing from the manual :
    File Sharing lets you transfer files between iPad and your computer. You can share files created with a compatible app and saved in a supported format.
    Apps that support file sharing appear in the File Sharing Apps list in iTunes. For each app, the Files list shows the documents that are on iPad. See the app’s documentation for how it shares files; not all apps support this feature.
    Connect iPad to your computer.
    In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
    In the File Sharing section, select an app from the list on the left.
    On the right, select the file you want to transfer, then click “Save to” and choose a destination on your computer.
    Transfer a file from your computer to iPad:
    Connect iPad to your computer.
    In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
    In the File Sharing section, click Add.
    Select a file, then click Choose (Mac) or OK (PC).
    The file is transferred to your device and can be opened using an app that supports that file type. To transfer more than one file, select each additional file.
    Delete a file from iPad: Select the file in the Files list, then tap Delete.

  • HT1473 how do i save an audio file from a webpage to iTunes?

    how do i save an audio file from a webpage to iTunes?

    If the web page is designed to let you save files it will often have a download link, or if it is a link to the file directly you can try to right click on the file.  If it isn't set up that way then they probably don't intend for the file to be downloaded.

  • How can I delete an infected file from backup folders

    ran Sophos anti-virus recently and it told me I have a malicious trojan on my Mac, Mal/PDFEx-H (which supposedly only affects windows, but it turned up anyway.) Sophos couldn't remove it automatically, so I was instructed to do a manual removal; however, every time I try to delete the file from the backup folders in which it is located, I get a message that "backup files can't be altered."
    so, my question is: how do I get rid of some malicious trojan (even though it's only for windows) from my backup folders? Btw, the backup folders in which it is located are all over 2 years old...don't know if that makes any difference, like maybe the entire folders could be deleted without any adverse effects?
    thanks for any advice.

    just wondering why you said that about Sophos? it's a download from Apple's web site and it did catch this, even though it couldn't remove it...
    thanks, again!
    I think that Linc means (and I concur) you don't need it to protect your Mac and it wastes resources, if it makes you feel better because it alerts you to windows viruses then remove it and install ClamAX or AV or whetever it's called.
    But you don't need AV software.

  • How can I delete all music files from my iPhone and start again?

    I rebuilt my iTunes library. I was under the impression that the first post-rebuild sync would erase all media from my iPhone.
    Under the Summary tab in iTunes, I checked Sync only checked songs and videos, and in my music list all songs are unchecked.
    Under the Music tab in iTunes, I checked Sync Music, and because all my songs are unchecked it shows 0 songs.
    However, after syncing, the status bar at the bottom of the Music tab still shows all my songs previously loaded as taking up memory, and when I open the Music app on my iPhone all those songs are still listed (although they are not playable).
    How can I clear everything out and start from scratch?

  • How do I delete Purchased Music Files from my iPhone 5? Im running iOS 8.2

    So I have attempted every which way to delete my music including going to General>Settings>Usage>Music Delete.  Certain files remain on my phone and i cant delete them in any fashion.  This seems like a bug because I have gone to the store to download the rest of the album then can finally swipe and delete.  This is a long process and does not seem to be too user friendly.  There has to be a better way to do this right? 
    Also, I have noticed that when plugging in iphone to my PC, I have problems uploading music....arrrrrrggggggg!!! Help Please.

    Hi maureenfromminneapolis,
    I understand that you want to delete some songs off of your iPhone in order to make room for an iOS update. You can find some information on deleting music files in iOS in the following article:
    How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5772
    Note that this article is only for music items downloaded from the iTunes Store. In order to remove items that you have synced into your device from your computer, you will need to connect back to the computer you used to add the music, uncheck the items you want removed, then sync to confirm the removal of these items. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

    Hello,
    If you don't have a backup of the database, then it's not really possible to get it back. There are some "Undelete" Tools available for Windows, but when even only one page was overwritten on disk, then it's not possible to recover it.

  • How could I delete the physical files associated with songs that iTunes has matched to iCloud Match?

    I would like to make room on my external drive.
    I need to be able to delete the songs that are matched in iTunes.
    Using the delete right-click option does remove the entry form the itunes Directory but NOT the physical files.
    I have my iTunes Library manually managed.
    I cannot recognized from the Folder which files are linked to songs that are matched and which ones are not.
    Any help will be welcomed.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.

  • How do I delete invisible MP4 files from my FLIP video camera attached by USB?

    Hello!  I have a FLIP video camera attached to my MacBook by USB.  The FLIP has invisible files (old videos that I have previously deleted from the camera) that I want to delete.  I can see them in Finder using File/Find/Other/Invisible Files but I ****cannot**** seem to delete them.  The "move to trash" option is not available in Finder/File.  When I drag the files to trash they don't actually move. 
    Help! 
    Thank you.

    The simplest way is to reformat or reinitialize the card using the menu on the camera.

  • How do I delete a system file from Time Machine?

    After consulting this support document, I tried to delete a Safari cache file that was captured by Sophos's Quarantine Manager as containing a common phishing hook. But it's in Library and Time Machine can't locate it. The Library folder, as you know, is typically hidden, and it wasn't there when I went to the starfield.
    It's not a big threat to me, and will soon disappear from my cache, but it bugs me that I can't get to it.

    Enter Time Machine from within your user Library folder. That will bring you to your user Library within Time Machine. (Your user Library is visible under the Go menu in Finder if you hold down the Option key.)
