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.

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

  • HT4915 How do I remove a song from my iPhone that I pulled down off the Cloud?

    How do I remove a song from my iPhone that I pulled down off the Cloud? I don't want to remove the song from my library, just my iPhone.

    If you're using iTunes Match, currently this is not possible.  For some reason the ability to remove individual songs was removed with iOS 6.  All you can do is delete all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage, tapping Music, swipping across All Music and tapping Delete), then redownload the music you want on your phone from iTunes Match.
    If you're not using iTunes match you could try swipping across the title of the song and seeing if the option to Delete appears.  Not sure if this is still possible for non-iTunes Match users.

  • 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.

  • HT2905 How to remove duplicate songs from the iPhone when the duplicates are not listed in the iTunes library on the computer.

    How can I remove duplicate songs from the iPhone4. The duplicates are not listed in the computer iTunes library.

    The simplest thing may be to back-up and then restore the iPhone. If you don't fancy that then remove all media that is currently synced to it, then double check and manually remove any media that remains on the device, before reselecting your sync options.
    If you've been manually managing the device and your library doesn't contain copies of all your media then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

  • How do I delete duplicate songs from my iPhone 5s?

    Almost all of my itunes music shows up twice on my iPhone, but not in my iTunes library. I've tried to delete one of the duplicates from my actual iPhone, but that doesn't work. How do I fix this?

    Hello jojorey,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    It looks like you are deleting your song correctly. The cloud and arrow is indicating that the song is no longer on your iPhone, but remains available from iCloud. See this: 
    Remove a song that’s been downloaded. Swipe left, then tap Delete. The song is removed from iPhone, but remains available from iCloud.

  • How do I delete duplicate songs from my iphone 4s

    I have tried re-syncing with my iTunes on my PC and it doesn't work.  Just says "syncing" and quickly goes through the steps, and everything on the iphone is still the same.  I can delete albums from my collection on my PC and they delete from the iphone, but the duplicate songs are not showing up on the PC and they are in the phone and I can't see any way to get rid of them without deleting the whole album from my collection.

    I just had this happen when I wanted "normalized" music on my iPhone because I am no satisfied with sound check.  All my songs still had different volumes. I turned off the cloud on my phone and added music with USB. I turned the cloud back on and I got the duplicate issue. Here is what I did to fix it:
    Turn off Match on phone
    Update match in iTunes from the "store" menu (see below for why this might be REALLY important.
    Connect phone
    Check "manually manage" in iTunes from the first tab when you click your phone in the left pane
    Open the "tree" for you iPhone in iTunes by clicking the triangle.
    Select "music" in that tree.
    Delete all the Music from the phone.
    Sync it.
    Eject phone.
    Turn match back on and download music via the iPhone but this takes a while.
    or I just reconnected it, then went to the music tab for the phone ticked the sync option and checked the playlists I wanted. I synced it. I then made sure "manually manage" was checked in first tab, then went into the left pane and deleted the playlists. This leaves the music on the iPhone but not the playlists. I ejected and turned on match on the phone. 
    My guess is there is a glitch where identical playlists from the cloud seemed to conflict with the ones physically on the phone and / or iTunes match could not match the physical files on the phone.  It seems my metadata for the files "seemed" different than the ones in the cloud.  Running RealPlay gain on my library is suspect for my issue so if something happened on your computer that changed the data about your files even without you knowing, this might be the issue. It is merely a hypothesis but it seems logical. Resyncing match then putting the newly understood match on the phone seems to resolve my issue.

  • How Do I Delete An App from My iPhone When the App does not appear on my PC

    I downloaded an app directly to my iphone. I want to delete the app. Usually I simply sync to my PC, and then delete the app from itunes and it is gone when I re-sync.
    In this case the app doesn't show on the list of apps you can check or uncheck to show or not show on the iphone when syncing. Also in itunes, when I click on Devices, and then content, Apps isn't one of the choices in the drop down menu.
    How do I get this app off my iphone??

    I have the same problem on my iPhone - an app I want to delete but can't. The app in question doesn't show up on the list of apps i iTunes and doesn't show an 'X' when it starts to wiggle. All the other apps do, but not this one. It's definitely an app. How do I get rid of it, please?

  • How do you delete duplicate songs from your iPhone that do not show up in your iTunes library?

    everytime i purchase songs on itunes and sync them to my iphone 4, the songs downloads twice. one as the actual song, and the second one doesnt do anything. when you click on it, it just skips to the next song and doesnt play anything. also this second song has this cirlce dot thing next to it when i am scrolling through my songs in my music...so how do i get rid of this second download? its really annoying to have and it wont let me delete it off my phone. alsoooo since it doesnt show up in my itunes library, i cant delte it off there either! HELP PLEASE

    On the springboard, locate the app you want to delete. For this example, I’ll use WeatherBug.
    Tap and hold down the icon of the application you want to delete. After a few seconds your screen will start to “wiggle” and an X will appear next to each of the apps you’ve installed via the App Store.
    Tap the X next to the icon of the app you want to remove. When prompted, selectDelete.
    And now it’s gone.
    If the application is listed in your iTunes Applications as well, you’ll want to remove it from there – or else it will re-install the next time you sync. Alternately you can keep the app in your iTunes Applications, and set iTunes not to sync all applications, just the ones you want to keep. See the Applications tab of your device the next time it’s connected in iTunes for syncing options.

  • How do I delete duplicate songs from my iphone???

    This is the 3rd iPhone I've lost, and now there are TONS of duplicate songs in my iTunes library.
    How do I get rid of the duplicates so I can transfer them to my iphone?  Please help!  I'm not too tech savvy. 
    Thanks!

    When you're looking at the "song" section of your iPhone, you want to swipe to the right on the song you wish to remove. A red button should pop up saying "delete". When you click that button, the song will no longer be there.

  • When i connect my ipad2 to my computer it shows as a camera type connection and can only see the photos that I have on it. I want to download all the songs from my PC but the device is not showing up in itunes.

    My desktop computer only recognises my ipad as a camera type device so I am unable to download the music from my PC to my ipad.  Even when I go into itunes it does not recognise the ipad, however it does recognise my ipod.  How do a get my computer to see my ipad properly.  My PC runs on windows XP.
