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.

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? 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.

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 off my iPhone that doesn't show up in iTunes?

I purchased this movie on iTunes at least 3 years ago, and both my brother and I recall deleting it. It doesn't show up in my iTunes (therefore I can't sync it on or off), nor my brother's. And I updated my iPhone 4s to iOS 7 a couple of days ago, and I just realised now that I have this movie on my phone, of which no one knows where it has come from. how do I delete it and where would it have come from if it's not on my computer?
P.S. I only sync my phone on my Mac OS X.

. Another strange thing is that in ITunes "Photos" at the bottom where you see the colored visuals of what applications are using space "Other" consumes more than half my space.
that can sometimes happen, when trying to update the software failed. Then partially downloaded updates will take up a lot of space. Photos synced to iDevices can only be removed by syncing again.
If syncing again with just one small album with a single photo selected will not remove the synced albums, back up the iPhone to iTunes and restore the device to factory settings:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
Restoring should get rid of the "other" and the synced albums.

HT5772 How do you delete a movie from a local computer without deleting it from the library? This should be such a simple procedure, but it's not. And while we're at it, why is iTunes NOT one of the dropdown product choices?

All Apple support says about deleting movies from a computer is that you "should" be able to re-download it if you live in the right area. Well, I'm in the U.S.A. and just deleted one of the movie extra features exactly as described in the support directions. According to Apple I should be able to re-download this from the cloud at any time, but now I no longer even see the title listed. That's why I wanted to test their support statements with a Movie Extra instedad of a real movie. This should be the simplest of tasks to manage, yet they make it extremely difficult. Why? I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever. Makes sense, right? But, I only have so much room on my laptop to store movies that I want to have with me on long trips, etc. So if I only have the space to store 3 or 4 movies on the disk, shouldn't I have the ability to every once in a while delete one of those movies from my local computer ONLY, NOT my library, so that I can download a different movie? Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library. So why does support say you can download again any time from the cloud then? The worse part is, the calamity doesnt stop there. Wait until you see the message you actually get once you say that yes, you do want to delete the movie (but only because you assume that you really can download it again sometime). Here is the exact 2 messages you get from Apple, in the same popup box.
Do you want to move the selected movie to the Recycle Bin, or keep it in the iTunes Media Folder?
Only files in the iTunes Media Folder will be moved to the Recycle Bin.
[Cancel] [Move to the Recycle Bin] [Keep File]
Is that the most confusing popup or what? Who develops this kind of software?!?!?!
I have tried it both ways and the only difference is that the file shows up in the Recycle Bin or doesn't. But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud. Better hey, if I clicked "Keep File", where is it? I can't see it anywhere, so where is it kept and what can I actually do with it?
I have to be honest, I love my iPhone and some of the neat features, but when it comes to iTunes, I have never seen a more difficult piece of software to use in my life... and I'm a software developer. Your Support documentation is actually more confusing than the softwae itself, it's almost as if you don't want people to use the software, just simply buy stuff and listen/watch it, but nothing else. Seriously, this is the most cumbersome, unfriendly piece of software I've ever seen. What does it say about Apple iTunes when everyone has to google solutions for how to do something rather than using Apple support documentation.
Seriously disappointed in Apple iTunes and it's never really gotten any better over time. This is one of the primary reasons I have never moved all of my recording studios and office operations over to an Apple platform. Hardware and phones are awesome, but your software is either grossly incompetent or intentionally designed to make it all but impossible to use. Either way, it's worthless to me. We're talking about software that does nothing else but manage media that I already own on multiple devices. That should be one of the simplest things in the world to do. Sad... very sad.
While we're at it.... why isn't iTunes listed on the product dropdown below? Maybe it's not even considered a product, which would explain it's goofiness I guess.

I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever.
But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud.
iTunes prefs > Store > Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.
This will show all your iTunes purchases in your library with a cloud icon down arrow. Click the icon to redownload or click on Play to stream without downloading.
Also see this , -> Download past purchases
and techncially, you don't "own" the movie, You simply have a license to use it.
Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library.
Actually, no it does not tell you that.
FYI: You should keep copies of all yoru iTnue spurahses as the labels/movie studios/copyright owners can pull their product at anytime and it won't be available to redownload.

How do I deleted a movie from an iDVD project

I created an iDVD project using a movie, and have decided to go back into iMovie and make changes to the movie I am using for this project. Since I have put so much time into putting photos and music in submenus, I want to use the same project I created, just replace the old movie with the new. I cannot figure out how to delete the old movie from the project. I have shared the new one thru Media Browser, and it is ready to be added, but I first need to delete the prior version from the iDVD project.
Anyone know how to do this? Thanks.

READ THE ENTIRE MESSAGE BEFORE DELETING ANYTHING !!!
To delete a movie from iDVD: Open iDVD. Click once on the movie title to highlight it. Hit Delete. It should disappear in a poof of smoke.
If you have chapters in your movie, you need to delete the Scene Selection text button also.
But, when you reopen iDVD after changing your movie, before doing anything in iDVD, iDVD should give you a message that your 'assets have changed' and ask if you want iDVD to update. Click on yes/ok, but check your iDVD project before burning. The way it is supposed to work is that iDVD recognizes that you have made changes to your iMovie, uses the revised iMovie in its files instead of the first one, and uses the updated iMovie when you burn to disk or create a disk image. It is a nice feature so that you do not have to delete the iMovie already in iDVD and have to put in your updated newer version; iDVD is supposed to add the update itself, using the newer version of iMovie. It worked that way in iDVD 6.
However, if you have an iMovie with chapters, what happens with iDVD 8/9, as opposed to iDVD 6, is that iDVD does indeed recognize the changes and sends the 'do you want to update' message, but if you tell iDVD to go ahead and update, the chapters will no longer select correctly. They all will default to the same chapter no matter which one is selected.
I can't tell you whether or not iDVD will correctly play the updated movie if you don't have chapters. You will just have to try it.
If you do have chapters and/or incorporating the changes in iMovie does not work, the only 'fix' is to recreate the iDVD project. It takes time but is not difficult since you have done it once. Open a new iDVD project and put the updated iMovie into it. Do a "Save as Disk Image" to create a disk image file of your iDVD project. Play the disk image file with DVD Player. If it plays correctly, burn your disks from the disk image file using Disk Utility or Toast. You can delete the old iDVD project.
Good luck with it!

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.

When I go to settings, general, usage to try to delete a movie, movies is not one of the selections, so how do I delete a movie from my ipad2?

How do I delete movies from ipad2 if movies don't show up under usage?

They need to be downloaded or to have been streamed for them to take up space on your iPad. If you don't want a film to show in the Videos app then you can turn off the showing of all films and TV programmes that are in the cloud via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Videos 'off' - or to just stop individual films from showing you can hide them via your computer's iTunes : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases
