Q: Movie transferred to 16Gb iPad

Hi,

 

Last week I bought a movie from iTunes. My plan is to watch it on my iMac computer.

I thought that it would transfer over to my iPod Classic, but it hasn't.

I looked on my iPad....it was showing there, so I started it.

Only watched a minute or two, but now my iPad is saying that it is low on memory. Has this movie downloaded to my iPad, and if it has, how do I delete it?

 

So wish I'd bought a 64Gb iPad.

Phil

Hello groeswenphil,

 

 

Thanks for the question. I understand that you would like to learn if a specific movie has downloaded to your iPad, and if so, how to delete it. For information on storage usage on your iPad, check out this resource:

To delete a movie from our device:

Delete a video from iPad. Tap Edit in the upper right of your collection, then tap the delete button on the video thumbnail. If you don’t see the Edit button, look for the cloud symbol on your video thumbnails—those videos haven’t been downloaded to iPad, so you can’t delete them. To delete an individual episode of a series, tap the series, then swipe left on the episode in the Episodes list.

 

Deleting a video (other than a rented movie) from iPad doesn’t delete it from the iTunes library on your computer or from your purchased videos in iCloud, and you can sync the video or download it to iPad again later. If you don’t want to sync a deleted video back to iPad, set iTunes to not sync the video. See Sync with iTunes.

 

 

Cheers,
