How do I permanently delete books from my iCloud?

I've downloaded books that turned out to be a bad read and I want to now get rid of them for good. How can I do that?

Hi Aquary07,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  If you do not want to see certain purchases appearing on your devices anymore, you can hide them by following this article:

    How can you permanently delete books from IBooks?

    You cant permanently delete them, but you can hide them.
    Pop into iTunes, and in the iTunes Store under Quick Links along the right hand side, you can see Purchases, and then sign in, look at your books and click on the X in the top left and it will hide them so you dont have to see them.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT5557 How do I permanently delete books from iCloud?

    Trying to delete books from iBooks/iCloud.  Help.

    You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show in the Purchased links for redownloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 - with apps and iOS 7, after hiding them on my computer's iTunes I've been having to then log out of my account on my devices and then log back for them to be hidden on that device.
    If ibooks that are only in the cloud are showing on the bookshelf in the iBooks app then you can turn that off via Settings > iBooks > Show All Purchases 'off'

    How can I delete books from my purchased list?

    You can't permanently delete any item from your account's purchase history, hiding them is all that you can do.
    You can control which apps are backed up to the cloud via Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage on the device - do those apps show there, and you are able to delete their content from the backup there ?

  • How to I permanently delete books from iBooks?

    I have a couple books that show up in iBooks but aren't actually stored in iBooks. They have the little cloud icon at the top right. I am not interested in "hiding" these books. I want them permanently deleted from my account.

    You can't permanently delete any item from your account's purchase history, hiding them is all that you can do (that should stop them showing in the cloud for redownloading).

    You cannot actually delete them from your account, but you can, via iTunes on a computer, hide them: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.

    how do I permanently delete books from the cloud?

    You can't, you can only hide them via your computer's iTunes : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
    If you are using a Mac with Mavericks or Yosemite on it then hiding is done in a similar way but via iBooks, not iTunes.

    They are not taking up storage space.  Apple knows you installed them at one time (="purchased", whether you paid money or not), and merely keeps a list so that if you wish to reinstall any of them on this or a future device, you can.  This is useful if maybe you deleted them due to space constraints, and now have a device with more memory and wish to reinstall.
    It's also useful for taking a trip down Memory Lane looking at all the useless apps you installed once then immediately deleted once you realized they were total garbage ...

    Connect the iPhone/iPad to Mac, with the device in iTunes selected, de-select pics and do a sync.
    After that on Mac, use iPhoto to view images, drag those images you do not want to the trash.

    How do I permanently delete texts from my 4S?

    Open the Messages App to teh messages list. Tap Edit. Tap the minus icon for each mesage thread, then tap Delete. Individual messages can be deleted from teh thread view by tapping Edit, selecting the message , then tapping Delete (lower left).
    Caveat - this will delete SMS messages from the Phone. How long they aactually remain on the server depends on your carrier's policies.

  • How do I permanently delete contacts from my text message log?

    How do I permanently delete contacts from my text message log?  It still shows old contacts once I've removed them from my phonebook

    i know that!! After you delete them and then compose a new text it is still there. Basically you know when you send an email to someone and do not store them it still auto populates their name. This is what happens with my phone. I Google this issue and learn some knowledge about data eraser tips.  Maybe most people still don’t know that actual contents of file are not really deleted when performing simple deletion operation on your iPhone or other devices. But they are just marked for deletion and not shown in the file system of your iOS device. The actual data are still physically present on your iPhone. For iOS system, the only way to completely erase the data is to overwrite the original contents by using iPhone data eraser app. this is the guide on how to permanently delete contacts on iPhone.
      The same thing happens to me, but it doesn't require deleting a contact. When I delete/replace a contact's number, the Messages.app still autocompletes the number with the contact's name and references it as "other".

    I would imagine only the App developer or Apple could remove an app from the App Store.
    You can delete apps from your phone. You can hide things in your purchase history using iTunes on your computer.

    What do you mean? They do show in the Purchased items in iTunes. Click on the three little dots ... to the right of the last icon showing in the top left to get the list of other iTunes categories (like books). Click on Books, and then on Purchased:

  • Why can't I delete books from iBooks/iCloud?

    Why can't I delete books from iBooks/iCloud?

    What happens when you try to delete them from the iBooks app on your Mac ? If they are downloaded into the app (i.e. they don't have the cloud symbol on them) then you should be able to select them and then press the delete button on your keyboard to delete them.
    In terms of the cloud, you can't permanently delete any item from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show for redownloading, which you can either do via your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    Or for the iBooks app you can go into the Store in the app, and on the Featured tab select the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the screen and hide them (hover your mouse pointer on a book and it should get an 'x' on its top left corner, click that to hide the book).
