Q: Hidden purchases not syncing to devices

Since updating to iOS 7, when I hide a tv show or movie, it is hidden on apple TV and my computer but not on my iPod or iPad. The videos are not downloaded to the devices, it seems that cloud purchases are not syncing for some reason. New purchases appear, though. I've tried restarting everything, syncing the devices to the computer, and logging in and out of iTunes. ITunes is the most current version. Any suggestions for how I can get hidden purchases to be hidden across all my devices? Thanks.

iPod touch (5th generation), iOS 7.0.2

    For apps, after hiding them on my computer's iTunes I've been needing to log out of my account on iPad by tapping on my id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in and they are then hidden from the Purchased tab in the App Store app.

     

    For music and fims/tv shows there is also a setting in Settings > iTunes & App Store to hide cloud items from the Music and Videos apps

    Thank you for your response. Logging in and out from settings on each of my devices fixed the problem! Thanks again.
