Can't Delete Song Off iphone 6 Plus, why?

I have stopped syncing all music as I deleted a song from my itunes library but it still shows on my iphone 6 plus.   I then turned off "share all music" in settings, I can't swipe to right nor left on the stupid song on my phone... HOW the heck can I delete the thing???  It keeps defaulting to it everytime I use bluetooth in my car.   Driving me insane.
It appears it it is 1 of 4 dumb songs downloaded several years ago and I can't remove it.  When I link my phone to my Mac not even my itunes shows it on my phone so it appears to be stuck on my phone.
HELP PLEASE
Thanks in advance

Hi Thunderman69,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing, and where you are seeing it (in iTunes, on the iPhone directly, etc). For example, if you are seeing songs in Music on your iPhone, but they have a cloud and arrow icon next to them, that means that it was a song from the iTunes Store that can be directly streamed/downloaded to the phone via iTunes in the Cloud/iTunes Match, as noted in the following article:
iTunes Match on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Also, if you have removed a song from iTunes on your computer, you may have to sync iTunes to your iPhone to apply that change:
Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB - Apple Support

  • How can you delete songs off the ipod without deleting songs off your itunes library?

    How can you delete songs off the ipod without deleting songs off your itunes library?  My son's ipod automatically synced all the songs in my library to his ipod which he now wants to get rid of.  Is there a way to delete them all without me having to erase my library?

    Do not select the songs to sync, then sync.

  • Can you delete songs off ipad 2 ios 8.1 by swiping song

    can you delete songs off ipad 2 ios 8.1 by swiping song

    tapping on the cloud icon downloads the song to your iPad. It does NOT send the song to the cloud. The song is already in the cloud and that is why the download icon is next to it, so that you can download it if you choose to do so.
    THe songs that you see that you said that you did not download might be the Songs of Innocence U2 Album that Apple pushed to everybody's devices sometime ago. If you want to remove them, try this and see if it still works.

  • How can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out

    how can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out. It doesnt let me delete from itunes either and its just taking up space on my iphone and i cant even listen to the song that are grayed out

    I did this with about 100 songs, and the problem is everytime I connect my iphone with itunes, It will automatically sync back every single song I did delete on the phone by swiping.
    I did search on google and found out that serveral people has this problem. The songs wont delete from itunes library.
    So why do they even make this function if it only deletes the songs for a short time?

  • I can't delete songs from iphone

    For some reason I can't fathom I can't delete music from my iPhone in iTunes. I manually manage my songs and usually I hit the delete button and the album/songs will be removed from my phone. All that happens now when I do this is when I hit the delete button it scrolls to the last album on my phone.
    Also when I try this in iTunes the same thing happens, I can only delete songs/albums from my iTunes library by right clicking and selecting delete (an option I don't have when trying to delete songs from my iPhone)
    Can anybody help? I am running iTunes 10.4 on OS Lion on a Macbook Pro, with iPhone 4. I've tried reinstalling iTunes and retoring my phone from a previous back up. Didn't work.

  • Why can I delete songs from iPhone if they return when synced??

    Why is there an option to delete songs from iPhone if it dosn't really delete them?? When you delete songs from the iPhone it will put them right back in as soon as you press sync. The only way around it is to manage you music manually witch is allot harder and now when you delete from iPhone it won't sync them back in but you now don't know what you removed. So you won't be able to put them back in unless you put back to auto and put all songs back in. What should happen is when you sync with pc the songs you removed from iPhone should automatically be unmarked so they are not synced back in and you know what you have deleted. Why is this so hard for apple to do!!!!!?????

  • I can't delete songs off of my iPhone while in the "On this iPhone" tab in iTunes?

    Well what I'd like to be able to do is to delete songs while in the "on this iPhone" tab. It's the one that allows you to add songs straight to your phone without going through the trouble of syncing or selecting playlists and all that. I believe it is more convenient to do this than to have only certain things sync because I can add or delete only a couple songs at a time. The issue is that there does not seem to be a delete option in this menu. I've searched and can only find solutions that talk about going through a whole syncing process. Hopefully there is an easy way to delete so I don't have to go through the giant mess of syncing everything.

    Hello bval2016,
    Thank you for the question.  If you are not able to manually sync music to your iPhone 4s, I recommend checking if you have the "Manually manage music and videos" option enabled in the Summary tab:
    To delete songs from the "On this iPhone" section, highlight the songs and press the delete key on your keyboard.  You can find all the steps to manually sync music in the following article:

  • Issues deleting songs off iPhone 5 w/ ios 7.0.2

    I have an iPhone 5 on ios 7.0.2 and I cannot get certain songs off my phone.  I removed them several months ago and now they are back.  I've made sure they are not selected in iTunes when I sync but they are still there.  What can I do??  I do not use iTunes Match and I have it set to only show music that is downloaded to the phone but they are still there.  I can't get Justin Bieber off my phone!!  HELP!!!!

    Deleting all the music under General > Usage and then syncing only what I wanted worked!  Justin Bieber is FINALLY off my phone!!!  I wouldn't even have him in iTunes if it wasn't for my daughter.  LOL  Thank you soooo much!!!  OH and in answer to your other questions I only manually sync my phone.    You've been a great help!  Thanks!!

  • Can't Delete Song Off iPad Mini

    Hi, I just got the new iPad Mini with Retina. It's completely up to date. Today, I put three albums on my device.
    1) The album art is not showing up (not a huge deal but still bothers me)
    2) A song showed up in my music on my iPad that I do not want
    I CAN NOT swipe and delete. I've tried.
    I pressed the "Show All Music" Button so that it is off and it doesn't show music from the cloud
    I even deleted the song off of iTunes and it is still on my device. Please help.

    ID you don't see the X, do yo use a cloud icon in the lower right corner of the movie icon? If you do see that icon, the movie isn't on the iPad anyway. The movie is in the cloud and you can tap that cloud icon to download the movie to your iPad.
    So it all of that is true, those movies are not taking up space on your iPad. You can hide those movies in the videos app by going to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show all>Videos>Off.

  • How can i delete songs from iphone?

    There are a few songs that aren't being deleted even though they aren't checked and aren't in the playlist in iTunes.  How can I delete these from the iPhone?

    Thank you!  For some reason, I'm able to swipe and delete only the songs from the playlist that was checked.  There were a few songs on the iphone that are not on the checked playlist and when I swipe them, the "delete" button does not appear - and the song begins to play.

  • Can't delete songs from iphone

    I have a lot of old songs and i tried to delete them on my iphone. So i chose "sync only ticked songs and videos" and i unticked about 150 songs. Sync my phone and the songs that i unticked didnt delete from my phone. I tried like 10 times still doesnt work.

    This is a drastic measure but it worked for me. I had hundreds of songs on my iPhone that did not appear in iTunes.
    I tried; un-check and sync, downloading again from cloud etc... Each time I was able to delete songs directly from my iPhone but in this nightmare they returned like ear shattering Bieber Zombies ( ....shutters....). I decided I just wanted every song truly deleted, and start from scratch.
    My 16 year old iPhone Princess grabs the phone and simply performs: 
    Settings ->  General ->  Usage -> Show All Apps -> Music -> Edit -> All Music -> Red Circle -> Delete
    Result: "No Content" in Music App, die Bieber die!
    It worked for me.
    TY to everyone for all the help.

  • Can't delete music off iPhone from new computer - help.

    I bought a new computer a while ago. Im trying to update my music through my iTunes on my computer - but it won't let me delete anything thats on my iPhone already. I can delete it straight off my phone - but when I plug it in everything syncs back up :s The computer is authorized already with my iTunes account.

    I feel really silly but I just figured it out - for anyone possibly having this problem - in the new iTunes you have to go into your device - music and if you scroll allllllll the way to the bottom it says "Manually added songs" and you can delete from there. I kind of miss when you could just right click on them in your Music file and delete it that way. It seems much simpler.

  • Can't delete photos off iphone 6

    hi, ive been trying to resync my photos to my iphone 6 because the organisation of the photos in iphoto doesnt reflect in photos app in iphone 6.
    so i tried deleting and resyncing it but it just gets stuck at syncing "gregory leow" (my name)
    (to undelete, i have been unchecking sync photos from iphoto and syncing it. then it gets stuck. bear in mind i do have 40,000 photos and videos. leaving it overnight doesnt work)
    restarting the computer doesnt work, neither does closing iphoto.
    i've tried switching cables to original apple ones, but that isnt working.
    i am using a 2013 macbook pro, I7, 512gb with yosemite and phone has been upgraded to ios 8.1

    Try restarting your Mac and the phone
    Or give Image Capture (in your applications folder) a try - it can delete photos from your phone too

  • How can I delete songs from my iPhone 5?

    How can I delete songs from my iPhone 5?

    You swipe left to right on the song, press the red delete button.
    If that does not work, turn off iTunes Match and try again.
