Impossible To Delete Reminders

I have a reminders list I created some years ago on my iCloud account. I share it with my wife...
Today I tried to delete it but found I CANNOT no matter what I try.
I have tried to delete it under each of the following:
My iPhone 6 Plus
My wife's iPhone 6
Reminders on my MacBook Air
Reminders on my wife's Mac Mini
Reminders on icloud.com under my account
Reminders on icloud.com under my wife's account
In short, it seems to be completely impossible to delete this list short of canceling both of our iCloud accounts.
What's worse is neither of us have the option to leave the list. In short it appears were stuck with the list and there is no reasonable means by which we can delete the list.

I agree with Bobby T.
Surely there is a way to delete an entire list. If there is, like him, I have yet to find it.
Let's say, hypothetically, that 2 Mac users, a couple, create a shared "2013 Christmas Gift" list. Nice to have. But Christmas 2013 is long over. One can go into that list and delete individual ITEMs on that list, sure. But how to eliminate the ENTIRE "2014 Christmas Gift" list?
Don't know. Having it around for life seems ridiculous. (Hasn't Apple learned about ridding oneself of clutter?) Renaming the list seems dumb.
Just give us a Delete List option!

Nice design: A bunch of calendar appointments that are impossible to delete

Where I used to work, we had an iCal server through which people could schedule meetings. Those appointments got synced to my phone.
I don't work there anymore, and I've deleted the "work" calendar off my system and synced. But my phone is still full of appointments from the deleted calendar, and it's impossible to delete them. Inexplicably, they lack "Delete" buttons. Look at this garbage:

What gives?

If you are now syncing calendar events direct with iCal on your Mac via the iTunes sync process, under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes below the Advanced section, select Calendars for replace info on this iPhone. Select Apply followed by a sync.

How do I delete reminders?

How do I delete reminders from the new Reminder aoo on my iPhone?

yeah i just asked siri to do it and she said
"i'm not allowed to delete reminders" so i said "i own you and i'm telling you to delete reminders" to which she said in a more agressive tone, "i'm not allowed to delete reminders." so i said "steve jobs said you could delete my reminders." to which she said "i'm not allowed to delete reminders." so i went to reminders and inside each reminder with a check box there is a ( >) symbol. hit that symbol and you will see the big red delete button siri is deathly afraid to touch.

Impossible to delete songs in iphone touch 16 G

Hi, My father in law just received an iphone touch 16g. As i am the mac fan and he very, very PC and sony mp 3 I was very pleased to show him how to make it work and to try to explain him the genius and simplicety of apple products. But it worked out differend. We downloaded itunes, put in one of his CD to copie and copied it on his ipod. no problem for the moment. than he liked to delete everything on his ipod, so through itunes we deleted the songs in the library and synchronised again the ipod but the songs did not delete on the ipod (nothing left thougt of the cd on the computer) It only deleted once we put another cd on it. It deleted the first one copied the second one... but impossible to delete it afterwards. So my father in law very happy to tell me that apple products are not that simple in use !! (took us over an hour to delete recopie delete etc) Why does it not delete on the ipod if it is not anymore in the itunes library ???

Hello,
It sounds like you might have the iPod set to manual syncing. With the device connected in iTunes select it under Devices on the left hand side. On the main page then uncheck "Manually managed Music and Videos". The iPod will then sync with the playlists you have set in iTunes. I'm baffled why you'd want to delete the songs out of the iTunes Library though...
If I was being very cheeky; I'd remind father that over 150 million people have iPods and don't find them a problem!

IPhoto for iOS : Impossible to delete modified pictures ! Bug ?

Hi everyone,
Just downloaded iPhoto for iOS yesterday. Amazing apps except for one thing.
It seems that it's impossible to delete a modified picture and the modified pictures album !
I even tried to delete the original one in the Photos app but now I can't see my original (which is fine) but I'm still seeing the modified version !
Do I really need to delete the app and reinstall it in order to delete the picture ?
Thanks.

Are you sure ?
Couple of questions if so :
-> every time I make a change to a picture there's the "modified pictures" album that gets created. If I delete the original picture, the modified one stays here forever even if I revert to original. Impossible to delete ?
-> I you only have one picture in your library and you hide it, it's impossible to acces it again. I had to take another picture to show the first one ! It's not a bug ?

Impossible to delete a video HELP ME

Hi Sukrit,
Thanks for answering
Here is my workflow:
- open file explorer in Windows 8.1
- look for something.pdf I want to check in any dir;
- click on it: opened by Adobe reader (default)
- read and decide what to do
- close Adobe reader (red X upright corner)
- as needed try to suppress in file explorer it by selecting the filename and punch the 'Supp' key (french kbd) or del (Intl kbd)
This is where it says 'impossible to delete, file used by another program"
Same if I try to rename or move: conclusion: the handle take a good while before closing.
Now I find that it takes about 20 to 30 second to close the handle, then "DEL" or "RENAME" work
But any time I try DEL or RENAME this delay starts again running:
But 20 secs is too much and makexs it difficult to concentrate on the job.
What I do now: remember (paper, immortal paper, paper everywhere!) what I want to del and do that at the end of my session
Hope Adobe will have a look at the issue!
Thanks & Bye

Entries impossible to delete

Hello to all.
I have to apologise for my baaad English. I live in Barcelona ( Spain ), and I would like to know if problem that I have, has any solution.
I will try to do my best.
I used to have Palm PDA since iPhone appeared in Europe. As I work with Mac, I got one and all information in my Palm, transferred to iPhone.
I don't know why, many years ago, I enetered 4 different anniversary entries, and made the mistake of NO give them a final date, as if they will live forever.
In my iPhone, those 4 entries are impossible to be deleted, because there's no way to edit them, and that gives no chance to delete.
I will appreciate your kind help in simple English if possible.
Thank you very much in advance.

That's true, but I have to apologise for my ignorance about it. Into the Advanced Tab, there are some things to do. I have it in Sapnish. I selected "Hide tasks which limit date isn't seen on calendar", and synchronised iPhone.
Entries are stilll at the same place. Hadn't move nor dissappear.
Fo sure there is something I don't know.
Please, would you mind to drive me as I was blind ?
Thanks again !

Impossible to delete old picture after the update of iOS

Hey,
Since I updated my ipad for the new iOS, it appears on my album older pictures that have been deleted more than one year ago. I don't understand why does it appear and where does it come from. I've never used the cloud or stored it on itunes or something like that.
After that, i've tried to delete them by selecting them and trying to choose the trash. But it appears grey tint and impossible to select.
I really to never see them and delete them definitely but impossible. I can delete every new one, but for those, it's IMPOSSIBLE.
Can anyone know how to do or where to go ?
Thank you for your help

Thank you for your answer
But could you tell me how has it been synced because I've never did it and I've never had this problem with the other updates. Is it done by iTunes automatically ?
So I will try to do as you proposed... hope it will work

Problem using DBCA: impossible to delete an oracle DB

Hi,
as the subject say it, i've deleting Database problem.
I'm not very experiment in Oracle DB Management, certainly not a DBA.
If someone can help...
So i describe:
Laptop: Probook 4530s
RAM: 8 Go
HDD: 500 Go
Chip: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2430M CPU @ 2.40 GHz
OS: Windows 7 x64
DB: Oracle 11gR2 (11.2.0.1.0) x64
Note 1:
OWB 11gR2 (11.2.0.3.0) installed as Standalone Client
Note 2:
2 oracle DB running as independant instances
1 containing very great amount data
1. I've created a DB instance activating the Archive option.
2. I import some tables from an other DB (populate those tables dured so much time that i wanted not to calculate them again)
3. One of the table count more as 32 million lignes
4. the export of those table taking to many time i broke the export process
5. after that i remark there is no more place to archive
6. after to consulting the Web about how to find a solution,
i've remove some Archive from the location where there are stored (C:\Oracle_DB\fast_recovery_area\<MYDB>\ARCHIVELOG\2012_04_04) to another location
7. i've succeeded to reconnect with sqlplus to the instance
8. i wanted to shutdown the DB with SHUTDOWN
My intention was then to do STARTUP MOUNT and then ALTER DATABASE NOARCHIVELOG;
10. after a long moment without response, i've reboot the laptop
11. the problem begin: impossible to connect to the DB get the message
"ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor."
12. i consult the "Application Log" in "Windows EventViewer"
It shows the following events:

14. at those step, because the place on laptop is limited, i wanted to delete the DB <MYDB> using DBCA
It show me a Dialog-Box saying that the DB is not started.
Note 1:
of course i tried to restart the Windows Oracle Services <MYDB> several times, and the listener
but it seems to do nothing.
Note 2:
of course i've replace the Archive files to the location where there are stored (C:\Oracle_DB\fast_recovery_area\<MYDB>\ARCHIVELOG\2012_04_04)
I don't know what i can doing
* either to recover/open/start the DB <MYDB>
* either to delete the DB <MYDB>
Have anybody some suggestions?
Thank you in advance.
JC

Thank you for your very reactive answers, Balazs Papp, *11g*,
the DB was shutdown and instance inactive
after a last search on the Web i find something interresting
i solved the problem so:
on 1 DOS Console:
C:\>set ORACLE_SID=<MYDB>
C:\>sqlplus sys/<sys password on MYDB> as sysdba
Then on the opened SQLPLUS session:
sql> STARTUP MOUNT
sql> ALTER DATABASE NOARCHIVELOG; (<- it is what i wanted to do)
sql> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
After reflexion, it seems that wenn i do "SHUTDOWN" yesterday, i don't be patient enough... &reboot the laptop.
It seems that <MYDB> state was registered anywhere as "inactive" & "MYDB" as "unmounted" & "closed"...
So it could be "normal" that after reboot, the state of instance & DB are so.
Sorry, i'm not DBA (& learn every day), but those are the reflexions that came to me.
Thank you Balazs Papp for suggestions to consult the alertlog on "C:\Oracle_DB\diag\rdbms\<db_unique-name>\<instance_name>\trace\alert_<instance_name>.log" location.
I ignore that it is exists
But the location is empty...
How is it possible to activate/enable the tracing mode so that i've "alert_<instance_name>.log" file?
Thank you for your help.
Yours sincerelly,
JC

Problems in deleting reminders

When I get multiple reminders in one window the button "Delete" and "Postpone" do react very slow or not at all. With the result that, if the Delete-button was pushed several times, it delets either nothing or also the following reminders.
Has anyone had tis problem yet?

The first question is 'is there a problem here?'
DId the file deletion agree with the return code of File.delete()?
Have you looked into any of the possible causes of that API returning false? such as the file being locked? or read-only? or open?
Are they consistent with the state of the files that weren't deleted?

Where can I find deleted reminders lists? The stupid phone has erase them 3 times out of the blue, anybody else having this problem?

In the last year I have had an Iphone 4S and the new Reminder app that comes with it. Three times this phone has just erased Reminders lists I had created. I thought it was due to being empty or reminders but this week 4 out of five lists disappeared from one moment to the next. I had entered a couple of reminder in the morning. When I came back to my office in PM and open the reminder app: 4 lists gone!! some of them with 3-4 items in them!!
My other phone a 3GS has deleted some of my "NOTES" in the notes app in the same fashion. I lost very important phone numbers and lists of passwords from one day to the next and Syncing didn't help that or the Reminder problem. It looks like a repeating problem in different generations. I never had these problems in my old Treo and it was not that SMART!!

Can't delete reminders list

I’m trying to delete a reminders list from the ios7 but every time I delete it, it just pops back up again. I’ve deleted the calendar that coincided with it and I’ve deleted all the actual reminders but I just can’t delete the actual list. It is not an iCloud list or a third party list.
Help! Anyone know what I can do??

Try it again. Seems like Apple fixed something under the hood on iCloud and deleting a reminders list works now.

Impossible to delete images from iPad

Dear all,
After importing my photo into iPhoto and then sync to iPad with iTunes,
I would like to choose the best photos and to delete some other photos using the iPad.
Then, I would like to apply these changes to iPhoto library.
But this is impossible. Why make a light and good product like the iPad but with a sync
procedure that doesn't do anything ?
Is the iPad only a digital frame?
I'm thinking if I need to sell the iPad and go to use some netbook..
Bye
Alberto

That is right. You can only delete from the iPad photos that you directly imported into the iPad (e.g., via mail, CCK). I you want to make a suggestion to Apple go here:

Why does Reminders show deleted reminders?

I completed and deleted several reminders that had alerts set. If I deleted them, why do they still pop up? It is very annoying to get a notification of a reminder that was completed already that doesn't exist anymore. How can I fix this?

You can't get around it. As it clearly states, you need an @me.com address to use those functions. If it were possible to avoid this, they wouldn't say you need it. Just because it is an email address, doesn't mean you have to use it as such. Just let it sync your Notes etc. and be done with it.
As to why it needs one, its because thats what it uses to store the items. Apple has no control over third-party email accounts, so can't use them and offers you an Apple-controlled address so it can work.

Deleting Reminders List has Deleted Calendar

Found a new list in Reminders. Never set up by me or used before.
Deleted list.
This also deleted calendar in iCloud with same name. Which has been used for years.
Very frustrating. When will Apple fix these bugs. iCloud is no better than MobileMe.
Is there a way to reinstate the original iCal calendar?

Here's a hack to get what you want and keep it simple:
Create two shared calendars (or not shared if you aren't sharing this "Reminder" list) in Calendar. This eliminates the need for having two apps as it's all done in Calendar.
I suggest calling one of the new Calendars "Not Calendared" (I know "Calendared" isn't a word, too bad, it fits here and I'm using it) and the other "Completed" (or use whatever two names you please).
Create "Reminders" in the "Not Calendared" Calendar. Check and uncheck (in the calendar list) to view, and then hide the "Reminders" to keep them from cluttering the regular calendar view. You can see them at any time as they won't be viewed most of the time and can even easily move them to a regular calendar as a calendared event if you want to see them "ongoingly" (see Calendared). Once a "Reminder" is moved to a regular calendar is not longer a "Reminder" but then becomes a Calendar event. It really is just a matter of what you want to see in your "Calendar" display vs your "Reminder" display. It just words and conventions and you are free to make up words and conventions however you choose. Ah, the power and ease of freedom!
Yes you lose the geofencing of the Reminder App and if that is really useful then for now bite the bullet and put geofenced items in the Reminder App and have TWO places to keep track of stuff. Hopefully Yosmite Sam will come to the rescue in a few months and restore some Apple elegance to this situation.
When you complete a "Reminder" move it from the "Not Calendared" Calendar to the "Completed" Calendar and leave the "Completed" unchecked unless you want to view your completed items which are always available in the "Competed" calendar as it is currently in the Completed section of the Reminder app.
Enjoy!
