Cant delete itunes songs from my iphone

my itunes songs have maxed out my storage and need to know how to delete from iphone4

Howdy lynndan,
You can remove songs from your iPhone by swiping the song, then tapping 'Delete.'
Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

  • HT4915 How do I delete a song from my iPhone 4s if it is not showing up in iTunes?

    How do I delete a song from my iPhone 4s if it is not showing up in iTunes? I've tried going through the "On This Phone" tab and I still cannot view it, but it keeps popping in my play list and I want it gone! It was a freebie song that was included with another song I purchaces and I can't stand it. Please help.

    I've tried that and all it does is play that stupid song

  • I'm managing several devices from my itunes account.  If I delete a song from my iphone, will it also be deleted from other family member's devices and itunes?

    I'm managing several devices from my itunes account.  If I delete a song from my iphone, will it also be deleted from other family member's devices as well as in itunes?

    Ok, thanks!  I'm pretty new to having multiple apple products.  Another question though, if I delete, say Christmas music, from my device and it is still in itunes, will it automatically sync back to my device next time I sync it?

    Hey renie1515,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    When you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID. This article describes how to manage these associations.
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627
    Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days.
    Note: Removing a device from your Apple ID does not override the 90-day timer. You must wait 90 days from the day the device was first associated with your Apple ID before it can be associated with another Apple ID.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • Since updating to IOS 7.1.2 I can't delete any song from my iphone

    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....

    First off, you might describe what happens when you try and answer a call. Then, let us know what user troubleshooting you have tried.

  • How can I delete a song from my iPhone?

    I am trying to delete a song from my iPhone music library.I delete it and then I eject my iPhone.When i reconnect it,the song is there again.

    In the Settings of Music there's an option called "Show all Music" if I'm right.
    Disable it then see if it helps.
    The real problem of this iOS 7 update is that you can't delete a whole artist like you could in the iOS 6.
    Apple will have to suggest a solution and quick because it is not comfortable at all.

  • I cant transfer my songs from old iphone to new iphone wont load into library

    I cant transfer my songs from my iphone 3gs to my new 4s they wont load into the library ive tried everything and im stumped

    All your media should be in your library. If for some reason this is not the case you should be able to:
    Backup the device to the new installation
    Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the new device from the old backup
    This process should switch set up your new device with the data and settings in your apps, assuming that is waht you wanted to achieve.
    Might be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all sorted, make a backup!

  • Itunes match deletes random songs from my iphone, even if i re download them from the cloud, the next day another 3 or 4 are deleted by itself, anyone know a fix?

    anybody know how i can fix this, i already tried to turn off itunes match off and on again on the iphone but it does not seem to work, also artwork once downloaded into the iphone it does not stay there, the next day its just a blank artwork and after the internet circles in the top left of the iphone stop spinning, i go back to my music library and then back to the song and it downloads it, but it does not stay there forever, any fix?
    it would be kindly appreciated since this is a very annoying bug, specially the songs that just get erased from my iphone for no reason.

    Hi Kevinpnb,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Sorry to hear of your frustration with Music Match on your iPhone.  You should be able to delete the music from your iPhone by following the steps in this article:
    iTunes Match on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5637
    Deleting songs downloaded to your device
    You can delete a song or album from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch at any time. Don't worry; it'll still be in the cloud.
    Tap the Music app.
    Tap More > Songs at the bottom.
    Scroll or search for the song you would like to delete from your device.
    Swipe right to left on the song, and then tap Delete.
    Note: You must be in Artists, Songs, or Albums view to delete songs from your device. Deleting from a playlist won't remove a song from your iOS device.
    Also, this information can be found on page 64 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
    If you have iOS 7, this will delete the song from local storage, but the song will still appear with a cloud symbol in the Music app, as you've noticed. To hide the iTunes in the Cloud purchases, navigate to Settings > iTunes & App Store, and disable "Show All: Music”
    There may be a few orphaned songs on your iPhone that were partially downloaded or corrupted in some way. If that is the case, you can erase all of the music from your phone.  Follow the instructions below and select the Music app under Usage:
    iPhone, iPad, and iPod: Understanding capacity
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1867
    If the issue still persists, try backing up your iPhone to iCloud, and then restore it:
    iCloud: Restore your iOS device from iCloud

    I hope this information helps ....

  • I recently purchased a song from Itunes and it appeared in my library but won't play on my Iphone. I'd like to delete it from my Itunes and redownload it from my actual Iphone. How can I delete a song from my Iphone?

    I just got a new computer so I can't get my Iphone to connect to it. I just want to use my actual Iphone to download songs from Itunes from now on but I already have this song downloaded to my computer so it's not playing on my phone. I want to delete it so should I sync my phone to the computer and delete it from Itunes on my computer then try to download it again on my phone?

  • How can I delete EVERY song from my iPhone

    I'm a user of Spotify so I have no need to have all of my songs on my iPhone, since I can just listen to all of them over the internet through Spotify.
    I have an iPhone 3GS. I want to preserve as much hard drive space on my iPhone as I can and thus I want to delete every piece of music from my iPhone. When I tap that Music button on the home screen, I want it to bring up an empty screen, I want all of my songs blasted off into oblivion.
    I've been spending the past hour trying to remove my songs and they just won't budge I don't use playlists. I simply have all of my music in my Music Library on iTunes. I have tried deleting every song from that library, syncing, with no luck. I've tried unticking everything, changing the sync options to only include ticked items, and it hasn't worked. I've tried enabling the manual settings, I went into my iPhone through iTunes, deleted every song and yet when I bring up the Music menu; every damned song is still there. I've tried disabling the syncing of music, then pressing the sync button (so that it syncs my other stuff, just not the music) and guess what; the **** songs are still there.
    It really is annoying me now, so I thought I'd bring it to infinite wisdom of the minds of the internet. Anyone got an idea of how I can do it? I'm not great with Apple technology so I would appreciate any help anyone could give me. (I miss the days of cheap MP3 players when you could just go into Windows, select everything and tap the delete key.)
    Thanks in advance.

    With Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, deslecting Sync Music followed by a sync should remove all music from your iPhone. The same when switching from transferring music via the sync process to manually managing music and videos.
    Since neither has worked, something is wrong.
    I suggest restoring your iPhone with iTunes. Before doing so, don't have sync music selected under the Music tab and don't have manually manage music and videos selected under the Summary tab either so no music will be transferred to your iPhone after your iPhone is restored.

  • How do I delete individual songs from my iphone 4S with the new update? I have already turned off iCloud

    Simply highlighting the songs on iTunes and pressing delete no longer works when I plug my phone in.  HELP

    Hey Yusef 89,
    Thanks for the question. With iOS 7, you can delete a song by doing the following:
    Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
    via page 62 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Please note that if you have "Show All Music" enabled in Settings > iTunes & App Store, the above will delete the song from your device, but it will still appear available (with a cloud symbol to re-download).
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Some of the albums in the Beatles package I downloaded from itunes will not sync with my iPhone 5. Some songs won't play. They did sync to my iPad and they all play on my iPad. What can I do? I've already deleted all songs from the iPhone and re-synced.

    I downloaded the entire Beatles collection from iTunes in 2011. Some songs skip and won't play. Some albums won't sync to the phone but they sync to my iPad. I've deleted the entire music library from my iPhone, shut the phone down, turned the phone on and synced again to add the music but now 2 albums won't even sync (Rubber Soul and Revolver). I've tried dragging the songs to the iPhone, no luck. Any thoughts?

    Sounds like you may need to re-download the entire albums from iTunes. See this KB article for how to download past purchases: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.
    I'd suggest doing it one album at a time. Delete one, download it from your purchase histor, then the next, etc.
