How do you delete a file from an iPad?

How do you delete a file from an iPad?
There are 2 versions of a document file on my iPad.
I want to get rid of the obsolete one.
The iPad Users Guide does not describe how to delete a document file.
This is very frustrating!

The iPad Guide is for the iPad itself, not other apps you may install.
If you use Pages then read the online help here: http://help.apple.com/pages/ipad/2.2/ - specifically this: http://help.apple.com/pages/ipad/2.2/#/tancfc4d5c02
Delete a document from your iOS device

Tap , then tap Delete Documents.To cancel, tap anywhere in the document manager background, or tap Done.

  • How do you transfer video files from the iPad to a separate device?

    How do I transfer video files from my iPad Air to a separate device or storage device so that I free up memory on my iPad

    You can directly transfer photos and videos via WiFi between the iDevices, PCs, and Macs with an App like Photo Transfer.
    See: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/photo-transfer-app-easily/id365152940?mt=8
    Or you can upload the photos and videos to the Dropbox service using the Dropbox App on the iDevice, PC, or Mac and download them to the another device using the Dropbox App on that device. By the way, once the videos are on Dropbox you can share them with others.

  • How do you delete transparent file from hard drive?

    Hi. I lent my hard drive to my friend and came back with this weird file named "\". I want to delete this file, but when ever I put this in the trash and empty it, my computer starts lagging. (So I have to relaunch my Finder) This file doesn't allow me to rename it. If anyone knows the way to delete this, please tell me. Thanks

    Hi rebellium.rebel, 
    Thank you for your reply. 
    Another option to consider would be formatting (erasing) the hard drive, after moving your files off of it. 
    You can find a step-by-step guide for this in the below article, which are good general steps although the article references Aperture:
    Format external drives to Mac OS Extended before using with Aperture - Apple Support
    If the files reappear in the future, some of the steps in this guide may be helpful, such as checking with the manufacturer regarding this situation and whether the drive requires additional software:
    USB and FireWire Quick Assist - Apple Support
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • How do you delete a song from a playlist in iTunes?

    I feel stupid asking this question but how do you delete a song from a playlist? right clicking doesn't give a menu option to do it, and neither does the file menu. The highlight/delete option doesn't work either.
    Also, I've ended up with several copies of the same songs in my library . Can i delete the excess tracks in one go without highlighting them?
    Thanks,
    Dom

    Option-delete will remove a selected track from a playlist AND the library. Delete will just remove the track from a regular playlist.
    Yes, you need to highlight all the songs you want to delete. Sort your library by song title. This should put all the dups together for easy highlighting and deleting.

  • HT2729 How do you delete a Podcast from your Mac?

    How do you delete a Podcast from your MacBook Air?
    <Email Edited by Host>

    To delete an entire podcast you have subscribed to - with all its episodes - select it and hit delete. You will be asked whether you want to move it to the trash or leave it in the Library - if you choose the latter option it wil disappear from iTunes but the files will still be taking up space in the Library.
    If you have mistakenly chosen the keep option, go to (user)/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Podcasts and delete the files. Do not do this if you have not removed it from the iTunes application - delete it there to avoid messing up the indexing.
