IPhone 5 storage with iOS 8 fluctuating; video does not show in manage storage

Hi, I'm about to go on a long trip and the iPhone's local storage keeps fluctuating, from the 500MB to the 0MB range. I upgraded to iOS 8 yesterday via iTunes and there were 2.7GB left of storage. I checked all apps and when going to the Video App, there is nothing there, every single video (movie, tv show, music clip) shows the cloud icon, so "swiping to the left to delete" is not available.
But when going to the iTunes Store "purchased" section, there are 3 tv episodes ready to watch, with no cloud but a "WATCH" icon. So I'm thinking this is what caused the fill-up, even though I didn't download 3 episodes. There is no "swiping to the left to delete" within the iTunes purchased section. The episodes just sit there, ready to be watched, and when clicking on the icon, sure enough, the episode comes up.
Going to Manage Storage, there is no visible video app. Yes, all apps are showing, there is no "show all apps" option available at the bottom.
I can't sync with iTunes because those episodes are stored on another drive, so the sync is not even an option, I hadn't seen this show in ages. There are no pending downloads. The sync that happened after the upgrade didn't change, same playlists, same photos, same everything. The 3 episodes show a cloud in the Video App.
Does anyone have a solution for this, deleting the unwanted, "invisible" tv episodes? Thanks in advance.

If the movie clip is there, but no thumbnails, I would suggest that you delete the thumbnails, cache, and analysis folders but take care not to delete your original clips. Do this in the Finder after shutting down iMovie.
Then restart iMovie and let it regenerate the thumbnails. Let it run until it finishes.

I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts

I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts. All the instructions on synching start with "find your device in the device window". But what if you have no device window?

Missing "message" from above: The iPad "DGMTR" is synced with another iTunes library on DGMTR's MacBook Pro. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library? An iPad can be synched with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iTunes library.
I thought the libraries were the same.

My mini with IOS 7.0.6 is not showing an option for wish list in the options. What is happening?

My mini with IOS 7.0.6 is not showing an option for wish list in the options. What is happening?

The three Rs to IOS, try them in order until the issue is resolved;
Restart - Press and hold the Power button until the red Power Off stripe appears. Swipe to power off. Press and hold the Power button to turn the device back on.
Reset - Press & hold the Power and Home buttons simultaneously, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons.
Restore - Connect the device to the Mac or PC with which it is usualy synced and use the iTunes app to restore the device to the factory settings. You can then restore the device with a previously made backup or set it up as new.

My iPhone 5 pairs with my automobile except it does not allow me to "pickup" calls using the car facility. I've contacted Acura RDX 2013 about this problem. It referred me Apple for a fix. My iPhone 4 worked with the car technology.

HI Friend,
Probably the problem it is because your iPhone 4 and your car have the same Bluetooth technology ( 2.1 ), but iPhone 5 has new Bluetooth technology ( 4.0 ).

I recently updated my e-mail address with apple, but now it does not show all the "purchased" music that I purchased under my old e-mail address. How can I re-gain access to those hundreds of purchased songs?

You are trying to find a loophole to circumvent a basic rule that prohibits the transfer of purchased content from one Apple ID to another.
Content tied to an Apple ID are bound to that Apple ID forever. You can not merge or trade accounts. Well, not (officially) anyway...

When I send an email with bcc recipients, the bcc does not show in my sent mail so I can't reference back later who I sent the email to. Worked in Snow Leopard but not in Yosemite. Please advise if their is fix for that.

Did you select View->Bcc Address Field from the menu bar?

Which version of Edge are you using?
Please update to the latest version of Edge which is 2014.1.1 if it's not already, and then try to reproduce this issue.

Do you have the absolute latest version of iTunes downloaded? If your iTunes software has not been updated in some time, your iPad will not be recognized. With iTunes open, click on Store at the top. Check for available downloads and if there are any, download them. Once you've verified you have the latest software, connect your device again, and it should be recognized.

How do I get my photos off my phone and onto iPhoto with iOS5. The phone does not show up in the list of devices.

Now that I have upgraded iPhoto and my iPhone, when I connect my phone to the computer, the phone does not show up in iPhoto and I no longer am asked if I wasnt to import my photos. I haven't upgraded to iCloud yet.

You don't not with a crack screen.

Just uploaded my iPhone 5 to 7.1. Now it does not show up in iTunes.

After uploading the latest 7.1 os into my iPhone5, my phone does not show up in iTunes. Did I do something wrong?

No, you didn't. Simply connect your phone to iTunes with the cable FIRST, follow any instructions that come up, then WiFi Sync will work again.

When I sync my iPhone 4 (iOS 7) with my computer, the iTunes does not show "iPhone" button right beside the "iTunes Store" button.

Also, iTunes does not detect any device connected to the computer.

Hi, Arthur330.
Thank you for the question. I am unsure if you are having the issue with your device not being recognized on a Windows or Mac computer so I will include the troubleshooting articles for both below.

Flash video does not show up once uploaded. Help please.

OK I've spent several days searching online for an answer to this question and I'm at my wit's end. Please help me out. This is what is going on.
I'm using flash to design a basic website. Within that website I want to place a .flv file. Everything works fine in preview mode and test movie mode. The problem comes when I puplish to the web. I'm just using flash to publish which puts all the files in a folder.
IN previous attempts, once I load those files onto a server it does not play the .flv file. The .sfw skin will show up but the general .sfw file for the project doesn't seem to be finding the .flv file. And yes, I'm uploading the .flv file to the server. Is there something wrong with the html code that it can't find the .flv file? I can replicate this problem on my desktop by moving the .flv file out of it's project folder. Once I do that and then click the .html file the page will load but it won't find the video file. It's like it can only open that file if it's in the original project folder and the folder doesn't get moved.
I can't be the only who has experienced this. Please help!

The effect you're having "only displaying the flvplayer skin but no video" is a clear sign that your swf can't find the flv.
One thing that you can do to ensure that everything is right is to first upload the .flv file to the desired location and then link your FLVPlayback to the url on the flash IDE / AS.
2nd Option would be to:
save flv, fla and swf in the SAME folder (no subfolders or such)
upload flv and swf to your webserver while keeping them together in the same folder, that ensures that your files can find eachother.
