2 Questions re getting rid of songs & keeping little hands from downloading

Hi,
1. Got my new iPhone last week but my niece nicely took it and loaded up some tunes from her itunes before i got to use it on my pc. Now when I plug it into my iTunes it wont open my iPhone details or let me delete what she put on for me- how do I do this?
2. Also how do i stop little hands from downloading onto my iPhone when I'm not looking. They're very careful with the phone so I dont want to stop them playing with it but they have got carried away with downloading before. Ie can I username and password access to iTunes downloads?
Many thanks
Lara

Also Re #2---Settings, General, Restrictions will let you block access to some things, including iTunes. I think you would have to turn on the Restrictions each time you pass the phone to the children, though.
Also, I am not totally sure, but I think iTunes remembers your password for a little while---eg, if you download a song and then immediately give the phone to the child, it may not ask again until you are inactive for a while or quit.

  • How do I get rid of songs from my phone?

    Like whenever I want to delete a song from my phone, it shows the icloud sign. When I shuffle the music, it will still play the song. I just want to get rid of them off my phone so it won't play it ever again. I have ios 7.0.4. I know in ios 6 when you delete a song, it goes away from your library. How do I get rid of songs on ios 7 and not keep playing them?

    I think there must be a bug somewhere.  Some songs I can delete and they disappear.  But none of my attempts to remove the Justin Timberlake song from Apple's 12 days of gifts have gotten me very far.  I can 'delete' it so that it is listed as needing to be downloaded again.  But it seems to be just marked as deleted.  If I turn off 'Show all music' in my Settings, the song remains there, but no longer has the cloud icon beside it, but also will not swipe to show the delete button.  If I turn 'Show all music' back on, the cloud icon reappears.  Regardless the song will play, even in airplane mode.  So it is clearly still on my iPad.
    I have tried resetting my iPad - changes nothing.  Apple seems determined that we keep this song!
    Also, since I attempted to delete the song immediately after it downloaded, it doesn't appear on my iMac iTunes synch page.  So I can't try to get rid of it that way.
    Very frustrating.

    Hi there,
    It sounds like you may need to hide these purchases in the iTunes Store in order to prevent them from displaying on the Apple TV. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • I have the iCloud Photo Library (Beta) turned on. The photos from my iPhone do get uploaded to the iCloud. The photos are then downloaded to my wife's iPhone (we share the iCloud account). How do I keep the photos from downloading to my wife's iPhone

    I do not want all the photos from my iPhone downloading to my wife's iPhone from iCloud? We share an iCloud account. How can I prevent the download to my wife's iPhone from iCloud. .The "Upload to My Photo Stream" is turned off on my iPhone. . I am running 8.1.3. 
    I have a related question. In order to same space on my iPhone is there a way to upload the photos to the iCloud and then delete them from my iPhone.

    The way to keep the photos from downloading to your wife's phone would be for her to go to Settings > iCloud > Photos > and turn off iCloud Photo Library. If that isn't an option, the other option would be for her to have her own Apple ID ( and possibly explore the new family sharing options https://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/ )
    Regarding the "related question" see the quotes below from iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
    Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album.
    If you want to reduce the space used by photos on your phone, rather than deleting them see the following:
    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
    You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.

    This is the website.

    IF you know the exact file name of the download, you can search for it in the spotlight.
    (This icon) in the upper right corner.
    If you don't know the exact file name, you may have to redownload it so you can see it.
    I would also try doing a reboot after you change your desktop background to what you want.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    You buy one and only one download.  It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.

    Whenever i open iTunes it tells me that 2 of my downloads cannot be completed because the file may be corrupted. I cannot get rid of this message or complete the downloads. Other downloads worked. What can i do to get rid of this warning message or complete the downloads?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

  • How do i keep my cousin from downloading games?

    how do i set up a block to keep my cousin from downloading games onto my mac? is there a way i can set it up so i need to enter my password?

    You need to setup a separate user account for your cousin with a user login ID and password and, also, edit your own user account and add a new user password.
    You can edit your own account to make your account a administrator account of the entire Mac and your cousin's a guest account.
    This will prevent your cousin form downloading anything with your username and password.

  • 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.
