Q: Removing waiting downloads from iTunes iPad app?

This may be a stupid question, but if there are some podcast downloads waiting to resume downloading in my iTunes iPad application, how do I remove them without having to download them?

MacBook 13" Aluminum, iMac i7 fully spec'd, iPad 64 WiFi, iPhone4, Mac OS X (10.6.4), 10.5.8 on MacBook

    To delete shows that are in the iTunes download queue, leave the download queue screen and go back to the purchased tv shows area. Beside the tv show icon for that episode will be a cloud. Click on the cloud and then right away click it again. This will remove that show from the download queue. (this is in ios7 but I think it also works in earlier versions)

    This doesn't work for expired rentals though. I'm working on a solution to that now and will keep you posted.

    I have iOS 0.6.5 on my iPod 4th gen samething happened.

    Super easy fix: go to Apple.com then click support. The rest of the steps are already listed.

    This works for any download from the iTunes Store. Refund is possible so be sure to ask.

    This worked perfectly for me.

    I accidentaly downloaded a rental on my 5gb iphone and i didn't have enough space so the download wouldn't dissapear from my download que.

    After i tried this it was gone so thanks.

    I figured it out!  I was downloading a movie in HD and wanted to cancel the download but couldn't even pause it In the download screen much less delete it.

     

    Go to the spot where you originally ordered the rental. 

     

    There will be a download circle with a 'stop' square in the middle.  Press to stop.

     

    I had deleted the already downloaded portion in Videos, but I don't think that mattered.
