Delete Video & Photos from Ipod

Hi hope somebody can help

I have a 5g 30gb Video Ipod

I have a few videos that I uploaded and also a few photos.

I now want to remove these but how do I do it in Itunes without synching and loosing all my music on the Ipod

Simply I would just like a way to delete the videos & photos with going through the whole sync process

Hope that makes sense

    You have to go through sync but it will only take seconds.

    Connect your ipod, go into iTunes. Select movies at the top and it should allow you to select which videos you want to remove, untick their boxes, do the same under photos and then click sync and it should be done. Your music wont be lost as you arent touching that.
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

    Cheers ikkle but when I do as you say, the prompt comes up saying sync will delete all music / photos / videos so am a bit hesitant

    When you connect the ipod to your computer it will ask do you want to manage files manually say yes then just select the files you want to delete although it does not actually say delete it says remove which is the same
