How to get rid of songs in iTunes

I deleted from my library lots of songs and then deleted them when they were in trash can, but then when I later look at my library it's still there for some reason?
I feel bad because I spent a lot of time picking out and deleting those files.

Hi,
Just open iTunes and select Player List ... select the song(s) you don't like anymore and ... right click and select DELECTE.

  • How to get rid of song on phone?

    this sounds like the dumbest question, but I can't figure out how to get rid of a certain song on my phone.  It pops up on shuffle all the time, and I know I must have added it to a playlist at some point. 
    But I have a bunch of long playlists and I cannot find it in any of them! 
    How can I tell which playlist a certain song is on?
    Thanks
    Bob

    OK -- so I actually called AppleCare about this.  I went through 30 minutes on the phone with the entry-level guy, and he couldn't help.  He actually wanted me to check 'manually manage music" and have iTunes wipe my phone, then I was going to have to reselect all my music!  And that would not have even fixed the problem, I know.  He was clueless but thankfully escalated me to a dude who solved this in 30 seconds.
    I had to delete the song *from* the phone.  Went to the Music App, under More->Purchased, and swiped left on the song and then could delete it.
    So, because I bought the song on the phone, and it wasn't in a playlist, I was not able to remove it from iTunes.  I had to do it on the phone.

  • How to get rid of iPhone in iTunes

    I accidently connected an iPhone with a Mac I do not want to synch with. Now when opening iTunes this iphone always apears and shows up inside the device list. How can I just get rid of this device without touching / loosing any datsa on the device itself?
    Many thanks.

    If all it is doing is sitting there, then there is no danger to any content unless you start a sync.
    But one way to stop it wirelessly connecting at all would be to switch off wifi on the phone while you have iTunes open on your Mac.

  • How to get rid of new version itunes and go back to older version

    I DO NOT LIKE THE NEW VERSION OF ITUNES
    HOW DO I GET RID OF OT AND GO BACK TO OLDER VERSION

    You can get closer to the old look with ctrl-b to turn on the menu bar and ctrl-s to turn on the sidebar, then select Artists from the selection of views across the top.
    If you still want to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • Getting rid of songs in Itunes that I deleted...

    When I installed Itunes, I told it to look in MY MUSIC and dump all of my songs into Itunes. Weeks later, I went into MY MUSIC and deleted some songs, and some duplicates of songs. But, they are still listed in Itunes and then I get an exclamation mark when I try to click on the song in Itunes. Is there a way to have Itunes look again at all of the songs in MY MUSIC without causing any problems and without much hassle? Thanks for your help.

    You have to delete songs from the iTunes library, if you delete them from the folder iTunes simply loses the location but the record of the song remains in the library. You'll have to delete the references one at a time, iTunes doesn't support folder watching so it doesn't pick up things you add or delete directly from there. You could have a lookTeridon's iTunes Scripts, Robert has a script in there called "remove not found" which might be of some help: Teridon's iTunes for Windows Scripts

  • HT1417 how to get rid of duplicates in itunes 11

    I cannot find where to get rid of duplicates in the new version of itunes, which I cannot stand.  Can I go back to the old one, where it would let you find duplicates and delete them?

    OK I understand. Many of the old iTunes 10 features are still present, but they have been hidden by default.
    Bring back your Sidebar with control S and your menu bar with control B. There are icons for them but the control keys are easier to describe.
    The View menu will then be visible, where you can customize your viewing preferences and make it appear a little more familiar.
    You don't have to remove the old version to update it.
    Reverting to iTunes 10 is possible but very tedious.

  • How to get rid of songs in my ipad

    I bought several albums from iTunes store and they were downloaded to my computer, and in same time to my iPad, problem is that they are now twice in my iPad; one version does play and is alright, the other version of the same song, is basically empty and does not play
    I tried to deactivate automatic download from store on my comp and ipad and delete purchases on comp, then I run sync and a good copies disapiered but this horrible empty songs stayed there, how can I can rid of them, and advice?

    You don't say whether you are on PC or Mac. For Mac there are these two programs which might help (I havn't tried either) :
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/songsergeant.html
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/idupe.html
    There are probably similar programs for PCs, but I don't know what they are. On a PC you can hold the shift key and do File > Display Exact Duplicates (without the shift they may not be exact matches) - if one of each duplicate pair has the same date added then you can sort by that and then delete those with (or without) that date.

  • How to get rid of censorship in iTunes

    Hey People.
    I'm getting more and more annoyed on iTunes censoring every word that vaguely reminds of a slang for a swearword.
    I Can live with the censorship in the iTunes-store, but when iTunes censors files I add to the library, it's getting out of hand.
    Is there any way to turn the censorship off. That will really make my day
    -Thanks in advance for any help.

    but when iTunes censors files I add to the library
    Sorry, but iTunes is not that smart.
    It does not censor anything. Files you add are exactly as they ar ebefore you added them.

  • How to get rid of the mini itunes store on the bottom of the library.

    nevermind... please delete if possible.

    There are four icons in the bottom right of the screen, the furthest one in hides and unhides it. Alternatively if you prefer keyboard shortcuts, Shift-command-M toggles the ministore pane on and off. You can't actually delete it

    when i have synced my phone with itunes there are old songs that i dont want. these songs always have the sync sign next to them but i dont know how to get rid of them, i have event deleted them from my library, my computer and hidden them on i cloud. help please

    Settings/ Music/ Show All Music/ OFF
    There is a parallel setting in Settings/ Videos/ which also includes Videos in the cloud, as well as Settings/ iTunes & App Store/ where you can set both Music and Video preferences.  But you only need to change a setting in one location.

  • HT2905 how to get rid of duplicate songs on the new itunes 11

    how do i rid duplicate songs on the new itunes?

    Happened to me a while ago i removed all my music from my ipad and all the duplicates were still on it so i deleted them 
    1. plug in youre device and sync with itunes
    2. MAKE SURE ALL YOURE MUSIC IS SAVED AND IS IN YOURE ITUNES ACCOUNT
    3. go to music on youre device and uncheck the box and it'll ask if you want to remove all music click yes
    4. after the sycn check youre device and the duplicates should still be on youre device delete them and re-sync and  you shouldn't have duplicates any more
    I believe this happens when you buy a song on youre device then sync with youre pc
    hope this helped
