Q: Suggested I delete video by clicking on edit. There is no edit in my video window only the videos I have purchased
Trying to download a rented video from istore. Keeps saying no space left. I have tried to delete a video that is on my iPad but no way to do that. No edit option in my video app.
iPad, iOS 7.0.4

In the Videos app on iOS 7 on an iPad you should have an Edit button at the top right of the film and TV programme selection screens, which will allow you to delete videos that you've downloaded or synced to the app. If you want to delete just an episode or two from a TV series then select the series to list the episodes and then swipe from right-to-left across the episode that you want to delete.
Or you can do it via Settings > General > Usage > Videos (under the 'Storage' heading - that also has an Edit button at the top right of the screen (and again you can select a TV series and delete individual episodes).
Films and TV programmes can'tbe redownloaded in all countries (and even where they can be there is no guarantee that they will remain in a country's store for future redownloading), so if you haven't already got copies of them on your computer's iTunes you may first want to copy them over via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases so that you can take a backup copy.
