Why can't I delete podcasts in iTunes 11.1?

Seems as Apple has erroneously taken a function away in iTunes 11.1, I can't delete old podcasts, they stay in my view - and there are zillions, so Podcast selection in iTunes and Apple TV is a mess
Apparenlty this is a bug?

Unbeleivable!
Everyone needs to band together on this and send the meanest-spirited complaint to Apple via the "Provide iTunes Feedback" option (dropdown from the iTunes menu, found just under thr Preferences option). If you have such uncharitable words to say here the Moderator just deletes it. If there was some way to start a petition I'd do it. Intensionally hobbling programs and calling it an upgrade is the dumbest thing Apple can possibly do. Reminds me of a Dilbert episode.

Why can't I delete files in iTunes? NO DELETE does NOT work.

iTunes 11.1 will not delete files from list, and NO the delete key does not work for that thanks.

I'd recommend just giving up on the List View in iTunes. As far as I can tell, you CANNOT get rid of anything in that view. If there's a cloud icon, the episode is out there in the ether and you can download it; if there's no cloud, I guess it's on your computer already. Basically it's in permanent "Show All Available Episodes" mode, and that's the only choice available.
Use the "My Podcasts" or "My Stations" view (or a smart playlist) instead to see what podcast episodes are actually on your computer.
I've also found that deleting podcast episodes doesn't seem to be a permanent solution: iTunes will want to download them again, because after all, you didn't play the podcast, right? You must have made a mistake by deleting something you hadn't played yet! (WHY they've set it up this way is beyond me.) To get rid of a podcast episode off your computer, mark it as played, and then re-sync.

Why can I not delete a book from my iTunes library

Why can I not delete a book from my iTunes library. There are many books that I want to delete and replace with current books, but cannot remove the old books. Thanks Guy

Hey cjt101,
Thanks for the question. Was this song purchased from the iTunes Store? If so, it may be that your device is configured to show all of your purchased music that has not yet been downloaded. The following resource may resolve your issue:
iCloud and iTunes Match - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphb8d9fd5a6
View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Why can'y I delete Breaking Bad from my mac, Why can'y I delete Breaking Bad from my mac

Why can't I delete breaking bad from my mac?

There is no official public documentation of that alert as far as I know, but according to reports, it can sometimes mean that the same Apple ID is being used with the iTunes Store or one of the other Apple content stores, and the payment method is invalid. Sign in to the store and review your account. You do not, of course, have to provide any billing information to set up an account to use only with iMessage, as it's a no-charge service.
Otherwise, do what the alert tells you to do. According to reports, you won't be charged for the support call if you select "Apple ID" as the product and cite the customer code in the alert as the "validation code" to the representative.

Why can't I delete songs?

I have a problem I have an i-pad and i-pod that I share with my children and I've put on all the restrictions I feel are appropriate, but certain songs are still in the library. So I simply want tto delete those songs form these devices. Why can't I delete the selected songs from these devices? I do not have i-cloud sync turned on these devices.

Hello Unsilenced,
You did the first thing I would have done as well by attempting to delete the content and re download it. If you have not already, I would suggest restarting the computer and see how it looks after that. IF the issue persists then I would recommend checking for 3rd party plugins that may be interfering with this article:
iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3430.
If the issue is not resolved after that, I think recreating the iTunes library would be the next best step here.

All the best,

Why can't I delete books from iBooks/iCloud?

Why can't I delete books from iBooks/iCloud?

What happens when you try to delete them from the iBooks app on your Mac ? If they are downloaded into the app (i.e. they don't have the cloud symbol on them) then you should be able to select them and then press the delete button on your keyboard to delete them.
In terms of the cloud, you can't permanently delete any item from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show for redownloading, which you can either do via your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
Or for the iBooks app you can go into the Store in the app, and on the Featured tab select the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the screen and hide them (hover your mouse pointer on a book and it should get an 'x' on its top left corner, click that to hide the book).

Why can't I delete pictures off of camera roll. I also can't send a picture to a friends phone. One last question.......why do pictures freeze up on the screen and I have to hit the power button to go back to home screen. Thanks for any help.

Why can't I delete pictures off of camera roll? I also can't send Pictures to someone else's phone. My picture seems to freeze up and I can't do anything, particularly delete the picture. I'm new to iPhone so I'm really just learning how this iphone thing works :)

Did you recently start using iCloud to backup your photos?
Wife had the same problem today. Remembering that I had recently signed her up for more space on iCloud and started backing up her photos, I decided to roll the dice and turn that off. Plug phone back into computer and *boom* I now have the option to delete. Now I just have to figure out how I can do both = \

Why can't two different users use Itunes on the same computer with different log ins

They can, but not at the same time.
If one user left iTunes running, and another user tries to use iTunes from a different Windows user ID, that second user will get an error message. If they really want to use iTunes, they either have to beg the first user to log in and close iTunes, or else they have to restart the computer.
If you are asking the technical reason why, it is something about context switching.

How can I remove a podcast from iTunes if iTunes is locked up.

I added a password protected podcast and iTunes locks up on the authentication dialog. Spinning beachball... only thing I can do is force quit.
Earlier solution was to go in and manually disable podcasts with Xcode. but then i can't play any of my podcasts.
The recent itunes update fixed the problem, sort of. it allowed me to use itunes normally again. But, I tried to subscribe to the podcast agin and... yup, same thing.
How can I remove that podcast from iTunes without using iTunes to remove it?
HELP!!!!

ROGER, I AM SORRY I DIDN'T GIVE YOU THE 10 POINT RATING. I DIDN'T REALIZE IT MADE A DIFFERENCE AND THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS NOT WITH YOUR RESPONSE, WHICH WAS RIGHT ON, BUT WITH THE WAY THE SYSTEM WORKS.
