Videos marked as "Album Only" can't delete

I use the shopping cart feature of iTunes 7.5 I had a number of videos that i had added to my cart but hadn't decided if i wanted to complete the transaction yet.
Some of these videos were recently added and others have been sitting there a while. Well SOME of my videos over the last week have been changed to album only and are now marked as iTunes +
No problem, just delete them, right? No luck. i can't delete them and i can't re-add them because they are marked as in my cart. Also these videos are not marked as album only in the iTunes store just my shopping cart.
This only seems to effect videos but i do have one other album i can't remove. I tried to add mad world to my cart but it added the whole album for some reason. that album can't be removed.
One last thing. I do have some videos and singles that say "Buy song / video" these are fine. i can even add new songs and buty them no problem. But these pre existing videos have become a problem.

I sent an email to itunes support but nothing really matched my question. have you had any luck?

I added a photo from camera roll to a created album,how can I delete that photo from camera roll and still keep photo in album

I added a photo from camera roll to a created album, how can I delete that photo from camera roll and still keep same photo in album?

You can't. It doesn't work that way.
the new album that you created doesn't contain a copy of the actual photo. It contains a pointer to that photo. If you delete it from the camera roll, you will delete it from the album that you created as well. Albums that you create on the iPad in the Photos app are for local organization only and cannot be transfer or imported to your computer, because there really are no photos in those albums

HT1491 Can't purchase full album only can get songs individually

I am connected to iTunes via the wifi on my iPod touch, and when trying to purchase an album it won't let me buy the full album it only let's me buy each song individually. The $12.99 button does nothing when I hit it, but the $1.29 button for each song works. The album has 18 songs so is a waste of money to do each song individually. This happens with every album I try, not just the album that I specifically want. I know the problem can't be with payment because I have just over a $23 balance from gift cards I have redeemed. Also purchasing music through the wifi on my iPod touch is my only option as my desktop computer crashed so I have no other way to put new music on my iPod. Any ideas, comments, solutions????? Any responses are greatly appreciated.

Time Capsule backup failed, volume read-only, can't delete

I've only been using Time Machine and Time Capsule for 2 months. This week it stopped working. First error message:
"Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while copying files to the backup volume."
Checking the Time Machine preferences, "Last backup" would read "backup failed"
When I got this error, all the wireless functions went offline, even thought the TC light was still green.
I would shut down, shut down the Time Capsule, shut off my modem reboot everything in order.
I would come back online, but after about 20 minutes to 1.5 hours into the next backup, same thing would happen again.
Next error message:
"Disk repair. The disk 'Backup of [my computer]' was not repairable by this computer. It is being made available to you with limited functionality. You must backup your data and reformat the drive."
Then: "Time Machine Error: The backup volume is read only. To select a different volume ... Time Machine preferences ... "
I spoke to someone at Apple, who sent me the Time Machine Troubleshooting page:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3275?viewlocale=en_US
Steps I went through:
1. updated my system software
2. updated the TC firmware to 7.4.1
3. dragged the sparsebundle to DiskUtility. It took a while (more than an hour?) but said the disk could not be repaired. When I tried again, the repair function wouldn't run.
4. tried to delete the sparsebundle, but it would choke at almost the end, sometimes it would just crash the finder, sometimes say "Sorry, an unexpected error occurred," sometimes "Operation cannot be completed because the item 'bands' is in use." I even tried to Stuff the bundle with 'delete original' checked, but the stuffing, after about 15 hours, jammed near the end (stuffed 20 gigs of 35 gigs).
5. tried to reselect the TC, and run backup anyways ... now it can't find the volume, back to the error messages and crashing Finder
6. checked password in Keychain, all ok.
Now what??
Do I use Airport Utility to erase it? At least TC is still showing up there. Or press the rest button on the back of the Time Capsule to reset to factory defaults?
I've resigned myself to losing my backups. Now I would just like to get it up and running again.
In hopes,
Linda

Yes, open Airport Utility and erase the drive. Once the sparsebundle is corrupted beyond repair there's little more you can do. However, do not reset the TC. Doing so will not erase the drive, but it will remove any custom configurations you may have setup for the router. Only if that part of the TC is also misbehaving should you use the reset button.

How do I delete photos from my Photo Stream in iCloud?
Individual photos cannot be deleted from your Photo Stream. You can, however, delete all the photos in your Photo Stream by clicking the Reset Photo Stream button in your account at icloud.com. The Reset Photo Stream button will instantly delete all Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud, but it will not remove any Photo Stream photos that have already been pushed to your devices."

Can you copy a video on iPad 2 from Videos to Photo Album?

I need to add videos to a Keynote presentation I am making but the videos I need are saved on my iPad in the Videos App not the Camera Photo Album. And Keynote's insert media doesn't recognize the Video app as a source for media.
Is there a way to copy/move/export from Videos to Photo Album?

Can I use iMovie to save the video from my Videos Album to my Camera Roll? That seems like it would be the easiest way, but I don't want to spend the $5 for an app that won't do what I want it to do.

Unplayable Greyed-Out Video On iPod Touch, Only Visible In iTunes

I've had a greyed-out "error" video on my iPod Touch 4G for a long time. It isn't visible on the iPod itself, but it shows up in iTunes. It has the same "Album", "Show" and "Year" tags as another album of videos I have (Album and Show "Baman Piderman", year 2012). Judging from it's reported length, it is an error version of a video from that album (specifically, "Weirdy Feeling"), although I have a version of said video on my iPod, and it works just fine. I've gone so far as to copy the Media Library database from my iPod to my computer and edit it manually, but I can't find the error entry anywhere. Interestingly, the reported size of this error file is "Stream". I can give a star rating to the file, but other than that, I can't edit any of it's tags.
I should mention that, by choosing "Manually manage music and videos" for my iPod, I can manually delete the file from iTunes. But every time I sync, it reappears, and I prefer to not manage the music and videos manually.
Here's an image of the error file with it's "Get Info" window open to the first tab:

After I updated to iOS 6.1, the problem disappeared. Not sure what it was, what was causing it or how to fix it. But, hey, it's gone now.

Can't delete podcasts from Ipod Touch

I have an Ipod Nano and an Itouch, and I manually manage the podcasts on both of them. The Nano works fine. On the Itouch, I can connect my Itouch, go into podcasts under my device, and delete them, but they aren't deleted from my Itouch. However, they no longer show up in Itunes. It seems bizarre that Itunes not only can't delete them, but actually thinks that they are gone from the Itouch, when they are clearly still there. Any suggestions for how to get the Itouch to work like the Nano?

I have this same problem and I have to say, reformatting your iPod is a terrible solution. Actually, I don't know that it qualifies as a solution at all. Obviously if you delete everything and then just put back the files you want, you can delete the buggy podcasts. The hope is that there's some way to do it without wasting the extraordinary time and effort that it would take to reload an iPod--especially if your HD isn't big enough to save all the sources.
It's absolutely ridiculous that this software has such a silly bug and yet, because of the holy Apple code of keeping everything closed--no access to the files in any usable way, no third party analysis/repair software, no advanced settings in iTunes and absolutely zero management functionality on the iPod--you end having to delete everything whenever anything goes wrong. What kind of crappy computer product allows for only one way of addressing all the problems (namely nuking your device)?

Try deleting/unsyncing the songs and resync them. However, sometimes that does not work and sometimes a restore of the iPod id required

when i try deleting pictures on my ipod touch i can not choose "selected albums" i can only choose all my albums

Yes, that's the way it works with pictures synced from a comptuer to an iOS device.
If you want to remove specific picstures/albums, do so via iTunes on the computer.

Why only videos on iphone can be deleted but not the music or sync photos?

Why only videos on iphone can be deleted but not the music or sync photos?

Because that is the design of the iphone.
Music and photos are added/deleted via the sync process.

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks only from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If you don't see them straight away it may help to restart iTunes. While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

HT201272 how do i access the cloud i have downloaded some tracks on some albums but they dont play so i deleted them i went to download them again but they are album only tracks so itunes store wont let me how can i get my tracks back? please help

how do i get tracks back that i deleted that are album only tracks, i downloaded it and it would not play now i cant re download it please help

About a minute and a half into some tracks it skips to the next. Not on all the tracks but on most of them.
Try again, just redownloading the tracks which are skipping. (The servers for the Store seem to have been a bit extra-cranky with this over the past day or so in particular ... some folks have had to try redownloading again a couple of times.)

How can I delete the list of watched videos on my iPad?

I have been watching videos on my ipad through the iTunes "home sharing" feature. It seems to work fine.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to delete the list (on the iPad) of videos that have been watched. Not only have I watched them but I have also deleted them from my iTunes movies list. I have tried syncing, signing out and back in to the iTunes store, turning off home sharing and then turning it back on again (which requires signing back in), all the while quitting out of the videos app and /or restarting the iPad before and after each of these steps.
The videos are shown as greyed-out icon/thumbnails in the iPad videos app. I am able to add new videos to iTunes, see them as not-greyed-out icons in the iPad app, and watch them. I just can't delete the shown list of the watched videos list on the iPad, which in the case of TV shows collect quite quickly and require lots of scrolling to get to the unwatched video icons.
Thanks for your help!
mug011

Yes, so...
I have also closed iTunes, reset network settings on the iPad, then shut down and restarted the iPad. Still, I end up with greyed out rectangular icons for all the movies I've ever streamed from my Mac Mini to my ipad via my home wireless router.
Again, I have watched all the way to the end of the movie, selcted the movie in iTunes and chosen "mark as watched", and then deleted it in ITunes.
Any ideas?
