How to hide Ping in iTunes 10?

Whatever the heck Ping is, I know I don't need it. Is there any way to hide it from the sidebar?

According to the Mac OS X Human Interface Guidelines:
You should allow users to customize the contents of a source list. This way, you allow users to decide what object containers are most important to them.

So why can't we remove Ping and other items we do not wish to see?

It's not currently possible to do it directly on iOS 6 devices, but you should still be able to do it via your computer's iTunes

How to hide movies in iTunes from ATV?

We want to be able to select certain movies, photos, TV shows, etc. media, that currently reside in iTunes, from displaying on the Apple TV. This is an obvious parental control path.
We're having a tough time believing that a mature application like iTunes can't hide a file or make something private. Are we missing something?
User can deselect Movies to hide them in iTunes (iTunes Pref's)... but surprise! They show up on the ATV anyway, so what good is that command?
Perhaps there's a terminal command to enable this boneheaded functionality? We've even searched iTunes plug-ins.
Thanks in advance for your kind assistance!

Thanks Mr. Churchill! I appreciate it. It does seem a bit backward, Apple's usually so good at delivering advanced features and functionality. It's surprising that all these hoops need jumping when there really should be a simple and elegant HIDE command in the VIEW or CONTROL menu of iTunes that blocks the selected media from display anywhere. The selected media could simply be placed in a password-protected folder that does not appear on the ATV without the user's permission.
Based on my extensive research over the past few days, I see that the request for such functionality goes back years from many, many people.
There are obviously movies, explicit-lyrics music and TV shows that parents do not want their children to have access to, and the joint partnership of iTunes and Apple TV is not up to the challenge of helping parents completely hide the forbidden fruit.

How to hide purchase in iTunes 12?

It appears none of the previous methods in iTunes 12 work. I need to hide a useless 1gb app which keeps wanting to download.
Any information gratefully received.

I sent a Feedback to Apple about this. Apparently a bug with the newest update. At least it it not impossible to do....just mysterious and rather enigmatic
Glad that helped you
Cheers,

How to hide materials in iTunes U Materials Library

When creating an iTunes U course for the high school level, my teachers would like to hide online quizzes and some other documents until students reach that topic. Is there any way to hide items in the Materials Library from student view until they are needed in the course? If no, is there a way to completely hide the course materials so that students have no access to it?
This is a huge problem that I know other districts are struggling with.
Thank you,
haygoodjb

One thought is that you could add your course materials only to "My Materials Library", accessible from the popup menu in the top-right. As you create each assignment, add the relevant material from your materials, and it will then appear in the students' materials list.
If this really is a widespread issue, I strongly recommend that you let Apple know:

How do I delete/hide songs from iTunes Match? (More info inside)

How do I delete/hide songs from iTunes Match? When I mark them, and delete them (and yes, I mark the box where it says delete from the cloud as well), they just reappear once I sync with itunes match again. (the symbol available for download appears). Is there a way to completely remove the tracks?
(And no, I don't just want to hide them (in the menu), since the tracks will appear in my iPhone anyways).

Hey imol92,
You may have already looked at this; http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4915
It is all the public information on removing songs that you have uploaded to the iTunes Cloud.

When I "like" a song via Ping in iTunes, it no longer updates in my recent activity - any ideas why, or how to fix?

Done all the normal updates - iOS5, iTunes 10.5, etc.
As of the middle of June, every time I "like" a song via Ping in iTunes, it no longer updates in my Recent Activity tab in Ping. Any ideas why, or how I can resolve?

I don't have a solution, but this is also happening to me. I have contacted iTunes Support but they have been less than useful. Hopefully someone will have a solution and post here.

HT2905 how do i hide duplicates in itunes 10, not delete them

how do i hide duplicates in itunes 10, not delete them

You can't really "hide" content within the iTunes interface, though at a push you could mislabel some of your Music tracks as Audiobooks if you don't mind the wrong content showing up in that section of the library.
Perhaps if you tell us the primary reason for wanting to hide things we might be able to suggest an alternative approach.

How do I delete my itunes account and start over?

I've had it with trying to get help with removing apps from my previous purchases. My son downloaded some questionable apps and now they show up on all my family's devices under "Purchase". I would like to just abandon the old account and create a new account to start over.
I deleted the itunes install on my PC and reinstalled thinking I could then set up a new itunes account, but then my previous account autopopulated my itunes library. How do I stop this so I can set up another account?

You cannot remove apps from previous purchases.
All purchases will always be tied to the accoutn from which they were purchased. All apps will always have to be updated using the account from which they were purchased. You would need to authorize your computers for the old account as well.
I would not start a new account. This generally causes problems.
Hide the apps.

Anyone else know how to hide apps in purchased section (iOS 6)

Since I updated my iPad to iOS 6, I can't find a way to hide purchases in the App Store, does someone know how to do it?

Disappointing, but the swipe-to-hide function does not seem to have made it to IOS 6.
However, there is a workaround. You can still hide purchases via itunes. If I remember correctly, there's a section for "Purchases" under the "Store" area. You can view purchased apps for all devices on your account. Click an app icon, then click the (X) that appears in the corner. iTunes will ask if you want to hide it.

Hide link to iTunes Store...

I cannot stand the link in iTunes next to an Artist, Album, Song Name, etc.. So I just downloaded the new iTunes and went to hide it like usual. But it was not in the preferences like usual and that is what the iTunes help said. It's not an option. Does anyone know how to hide it with the new version of iTunes?

It doesn't matter whether you paste each line individually or the block as as whole. If you paste the lines individually, they have to be separate lines; don't run them all together.
Maybe this page will explain it better where it goes:
http://www.mobilecomputermag.co.uk/20080910890/hide-the-genre-column-in-itunes-8 -for-windows.html
Just paste in the lines above in place of the lines in the article that hide the Genre column.

I don't know if "syncing", after you hide the purchases in iTunes, will also hide them on your phone, but give it a shot...see what happens. I have not tested yet.
