We&#8217;ll go over how to delete videos, restrict who can see them, and restore deleted comments. These tips are relevant to every tiktok user. You can also find some other useful information in the article. To help you decide which options are best for your needs, we&#8217;ll take a look at each of the options one by one.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_a_video_on_tiktok\"><\/span>Delete a video on tiktok<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How can I delete a video from TikTok? If you are not satisfied with a video, you can contact the video creator and request that they take it down. This way, you won&#8217;t have to spend your time searching through videos in your feed to find the one you want to remove. However, if you want to keep your account clean and tidy, you can delete a video yourself, too.<\/p>\n<p>To delete a video on TikTok, open the application and log in using your user name and password. Next, go to your profile page. Tap the video that you wish to delete. A drop-down will appear with options. Tap Delete to confirm the action. TikTok will show a confirmation message. You may also wish to backup your videos. This step is straightforward, even for new users.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Restore_deleted_videos\"><\/span>Restore deleted videos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When your TikTok video is accidentally deleted, you may be wondering how to retrieve the file. While you might want to try your best to find a copy of the video, the best option is to backup the file. To do this, you can either use an external hard drive or the cloud. Windows users can use File History to back up their videos. To access this feature, connect your backup drive to your computer and launch File History in the Settings menu. Then, search for the video you deleted on your TikTok account.<\/p>\n<p>If you do not have a backup copy of your video on your Mac, you can restore it from the backup file with a simple software program. All you need is an active Time Machine session and a Mac. Once you have your Time Machine setup, you can browse the saved content and select the deleted video. You should also remember that TikTok allows you to post videos and save them as drafts. This means that the videos are stored on your device and are not removed.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Restrict_who_can_see_a_video_on_tiktok\"><\/span>Restrict who can see a video on tiktok<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To limit who can view a video, you can set it to be private or semi-private. With this setting, only people you have added as friends or followers will see the video. Later, you can change the setting to &#8220;everyone.&#8221; Regardless of which setting you choose, you can never delete a video once it has been published. Here are some tips to follow:<\/p>\n<p>First, choose a reason for the restriction. If you&#8217;d like to keep only your friends and family from seeing the video, select the reason. The reason for the restriction will be displayed on the video&#8217;s information. You can also choose to allow certain users to see certain parts of the video, such as the bio and username. If you&#8217;d rather restrict the number of viewers, you can set a limit by selecting the &#8216;private&#8217; section.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Restore_deleted_comments\"><\/span>Restore deleted comments<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can find and restore deleted comments from YouTube using Google. You can access them via Google&#8217;s Activity page. To do so, log into your Google account and click the hamburger icon at the top of the page. From here, click on &#8220;Comment on&#8230;&#8221; or &#8220;Edit&#8221; to open the comment form and delete the comment. Once you&#8217;ve completed this, you should be able to see your deleted comment in chronological order.<\/p>\n<p>In TikTok, you can delete a comment by tapping on the comments section, but the original comment will no longer be visible in the comments section. You can view the comment section, but it will not be visible on the video. There are some ways to fix this. First, tap on the &#8220;Copy&#8221; option before deleting a comment. After that, copy and paste the text from your original comment into a new comment.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rbOjqexfbEw\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"198\" width=\"354\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do You Delete a Video on TikTok?
