Q: Hide TV shows on Ipad

OK....I've been desperately trying all day to get unwanted TV shows off of my Ipad. I've followed the steps and can get them "hidden" on my computer on the Itunes page, but when I sync my Ipad they are all still there.  So frustrating!!!  Does anyone know how I can fix this so they are hidden on my Ipad and I don't have every single show I bought the last 5 years on there??  Thanks!

    After hiding them on your computer's iTunes, then if your iPad is on iOS 7 then try logging out of your account on your iPad (tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store) and then log back in and see if they are then hidden from the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on it - I have to do that with apps that I hide on my computer to stop them showing in the Purchased tab in the App Store app. Hiding them only hides from the Purchased tab, it won't delete/hide them from the Videos app if they are downloaded into the app, you would need to delete them from the app

     

    If they are also showing in the Videos app with cloud symbols against them (i.e. they are only in the cloud) then set Settings > iTunes & App Store > Videos (under the 'show all' heading) 'off'
