Can't delete 1 song from my iPad mini

Hello. I have one song on my iPad mini that I just can't delete. I tried swiping and nothing happens. I don't see it in my iTunes library anywhere on my Macbook Pro and I even tried unchecking 'sync music' in itunes which removed all music from the iPad except this one song. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Is it possible that you purchased this song from iTunes then deleted it from your iTunes Library. on your Mac? Check in Settings > Music and see if Show all Music is on. If it is, it will show also music that isn't on your iPad but also music that you purchased and is available for download from iTunes.

  • I bought Itunes match, when can I delete the songs from my Ipad? It's memory is full and I bought Itunes match in order to free some memory space

    I bought Itunes match, when can I delete the songs from my Ipad? It's memory is full and I bought Itunes match in order to free some memory space. I already activate the itunes match in the Ipad, but it still keeps the songs. Can I erase them?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Go to settings > general > usage > storage and select music. You will see how much space is being used. Swipe to delete.
    This will clear cache. Streaming uses up storage space. If you have specifically downloaded tracks you can delete them individually. Will still appear on your ipad but with the download icon.

  • Can't delete a song from my Ipad

    Hello
    I have a song on my Ipad the won't delete. If i swipe on the song to the left nothing happens. All my other songs can be delete through that action. It dosn't even show up in itunes. Itunes says I have 45 songs on my Ipad, the Ipad says I have 46 songs. It plays perfectly fine too. I don't know what to do. Show all music is turned of in the settings.

    A couple of things could be happening. For example, the page you can't delete might be a purchased track; in that case, you won't be able to delete the track entirely, though you can delete it from a playlist. Also, the track may exist as a link, but not as a track.
    I purchased a Coldplay track for free as a promo, but I can't get rid of it, no matter how I try.

  • How can I delete a song from iCloud / iTunes Match, but keep it on my Mac?

    How can I delete a song from iCloud / iTunes Match, but keep it on my Mac?
    I subscribed to iTunes Match a few weeks ago and my entire library was uploaded.  I do not want all of my library in the Cloud, especially given that there is a space/song limitation.  Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Apologies Brandon, we have moved on somewhat from your original question.
    What I have done is effectively used Michael's idea. I'll try to explain a little further.
    You can run iTunes match on up to 5 computers, and you can edit the iCloud library on any of them. Michael's idea works on the basis that, whilst you can edit the iTunes library, you can't remove songs from other computers.
    I have basically the same setup as you, but I also have a MacBook Air, which is running iTunes Match but without any music downloaded so it all streams.
    I added the songs on my main library, which then added them to the cloud. When they appeared on my MacBook I deleted them straight away. As there was no local copy I was asked if I wanted to delete them from the cloud, and I said yes. When I went back to my main computer I found that, as expected, they were still there, but the iCloud status is "removed". They are therefore on my library but not in iCloud.
    Since then I have run match updates a couple of times and there is no sign as yet that it will try to add them back to the cloud. It's too early to say that this is a definate answer to your problem, but it looks very hopeful.
    Our other discussions have moved onto the 25,000 son limit, which I note from your comment you may also be interested in. Watch this space.
    If you don't have access to a second computer to run the other library on then look back at Michael's post where he explains how to set it up on your main computer.
    Hope that clarifies a bit.

  • When I try to delete a song from my ipad, why does it still show up as being on it in iTunes?

    Just like the question says, Ive deleted the songs from the ipad and when i look in the ipad, they show up grey.

    You don't need to delete them form iTunes on your computer. Notice the dotted circles next to the songs. That indicates that the songs are essentially in limbo. They may not be on your iPad or they might appear in the Music app but will not play.
    Sometimes unsyncing those songs will totally remove those ghost traces of the music nd sometimes, you have to restore the iPad to get rid of those traces of the songs.
    If you Google "grey dotted circles next to songs in iTunes" you will find a plethora of articles that talk about this.

    Since updating to IOS 7.1.2 I can't delete any song from my iphone (except 1 by 1). I've tried all the options in itunes (uncheck and manage my music manually) and in the phone directly with Settings/General/Usage and delete. Nothing works....

  • Can I delete a song from mu PC hard drive and still have it in the icloud?

    Can I delete a song from my PC hard drive and still have it in the icloud?

    Of course. This will only work if you are using iTunes Match or with the songs you purchased in the iTunes Store, because with iTunes 11, you can listen to them without having them saved on your Mac or PC

  • Can i delete certain songs from 1pod nano

    can i delete certain songs from my ipod nano?

    It depends on how you sync your iPod, if you sync with playlists you can remove a song by clicking it then clicking delete, if you sync by artist, album or genre you can't delete certain song. You can't delete them on your iPod.

  • I can't delete a song from on-the-go playlist.  I've got a classic 80gb.  I've held down the button but nothing happens.  Any suggestions?

    bostonshazzer,
    What model iPod do you have?  This feature is not supported on all models. You are positive you are holding down the Select (Center) button with the song highlighted until it disappears?  Are you sure you are in your On-the-Go playlist and not just a regular one?

  • Can I delete the photos from my iPad after i have backed up in the iCloud?

    How much space is your Other using? You may be able to reduce.
    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.
     Cheers, Tom

    How do I delete a song from my ipad 1

    Connect to iTunes. If it's part of a playlist just delete the particular song. Otherwise you may need to switch from sync to manual in the settings (navigate to your iPad under devices, music tab, towards the bottom select manually add music..)
