Can i delete an album from itunes library and have it remain in my account

Can I delete albums from my library and have them remain in my account?

Hi northcoast211,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have an album in your iTunes library that you would like to delete but you are curious if it would remain on your account. If the album was purchased from iTunes, as long as the content is still available in the iTunes Store, you can re-download that content at no cost. Please use the attached article for more information.

Have a great day,

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks only from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If you don't see them straight away it may help to restart iTunes. While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

Deleting a song from iTunes library and hard drive on Itunes 11.0

how do i delete a song from iTunes library and hard drive on Itunes 11.0 at the same time.

Hello CleveCo, Inc
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
At some point in time, you may have selected the option to prevent that dialog from appearing again when trying to delete tracks from your library. To reset all of iTunes warning dialogs, click the Edit drop down menu and choose Preferences from the list (on a Mac it is *iTunes -> Preferences* ). When the window pops up, head over to the Advanced tab and click the *Reset Warnings* button. Then quit iTunes and relaunch it. That do the trick for you?

Can't delete some tracks from iTunes Library

I am having trouble deleting a few files from my iTunes Library. It won't let me even change any information on the track within iTunes. Not a locked file or anything. Please help!

Try swiping across the song - in the songs tab of the Music App - from right to left - to bring up the red delete button.
Note - this is done in the. Music app. Not iTunes.

How can I view my daughter's iTunes library and have it download to my iTunes library?

I have a lot of Apple devices and also Apple IDs (too many created mostly accidentally over time) but when I bought my daughter her iPod, I created her own Apple ID. I only recently allowed her to download some new music and videos as a reward to her and now I wish I had them in my iTunes LIbrary so I can have them on myiPhone, on my iMac, Apple TV or iPad. I didn't want her to have access to my Apple ID on her iPod and felt limiting it by creating her own account with a PW only I know (so she cannot download anything unless I do it) would create the controls I wanted. I have logged out of my ID and then into hers as I am in the iTunes application, but don't knwo where I can ask it to "transfer purchases made on this iPod to my iTunes Library". Home sharing will not work since as I just read you can only use one Apple ID to have that work.
What is the best way for families or people with numerous accounts to share music and other apps., etc., bought with many Apple IDs?
I wish they made it as a "sub account" of my main one and then they all where part of a sort of directory tree so that all music bought under sub directories was owned and automatically transferred to the main account. Could this be done?

On your iOS device:
Settings > Music > turn Show ALl Music off
This will hide purchases that are not locally on your device.
In iTunes create a Playlist with just your music and sync only that playlist.

How do I remove some songs (albums) from iTunes library and put them back later?

I have too many songs and albums for my iPhone to be convenient. I can remove an album, but might want to put it back on later. Should be easy but I am probably missing something. I found the music>itunes>iTunes Media> files that have all the albusms listed. But clicking on a deleted one does not offer anything to put it back. Must be missing something.
Thanks for responses.

iOS: Syncing with iTunes - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386 - You can sync everything or selected playlists. "WIth iTunes 10, when automatically syncing, you can also manually drag items to the iDevice. These will show up in Manually Added Songs at the bottom of the Music tab after Playlists, Artists Genre, Albums." - https://discussions.apple.com/message/18919754

Deleting apps from iTunes Library and IOS Devices at once.

Hi there,
I tend to delete all unneeded apps from iTunes library on my Mac, because when I delete them from there, it just take one syncing session to deleted them from all my other devices. But recently I noticed that this way is no longer helpful, now I have to delete each app on my iPhone, iPad and Mac manually. So if anyone can help me to make iTunes recur to the previous pehevior, please replay ASAP.
Thanks.

I have the same problem! I recently decided to clean up my devices. The first thing that came to my mind was to delete an App from iTunes, sync and get rid of it on all other devices. I was surprised that it stays on iDevices evem after you delete it from iTunes. I don't want it this way. DOes anyone know of a trick that can allow me delete an app just once?
Before if you delete an App from iTunes and try to Sync an iPhone or an iPad with it, you would see a window telling you that there are items on your iphone that are not present in iTunes - do you want to copy them? Now it just "syncs" and leaves the Apps untouched. What kind of synchronization is this?

HT201272 I have deleted a song from my library and want to re-download it. When I access my purchased items in the iTunes store, the song has the 'purchased' button next to it and won't let me re-download. Any suggestions for things to try?

While you can redownload most past purchases without charge, you can't redownload movies without paying again. See Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

Can not delete photo's from photo library ?

Can not delete photo's from photo library ?

Those are photos that were synced to your phone from your computer using iTunes, and they can only be removed by syncing them off. Connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and uncheck the photos you want to remove, then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone. If you want to remove them all, uncheck Sync Photos. If you only want to remove some of them, remove them from the folder that you are syncing your photos from.

Help!! I was trying to delete an album from iTunes and I accidentally deleted over 300 songs, idk what the **** I did

I thought I was ust deleting one album from iTunes but I must have accidently hit the shift button or something becasue it deleted over 300 songs and now I can't get them out of the trash and back into iTunes, any suggestions? Be warned I am "technoligically ********!"

Are the songs still found in the finder -> Music -> iTunes -> iTunes Media -> Music?
If so, you might be able to import them again from there, else you can try to move the songs from your trash to an other folder.

I added a photo from camera roll to a created album,how can I delete that photo from camera roll and still keep photo in album

I added a photo from camera roll to a created album, how can I delete that photo from camera roll and still keep same photo in album?

You can't. It doesn't work that way.
the new album that you created doesn't contain a copy of the actual photo. It contains a pointer to that photo. If you delete it from the camera roll, you will delete it from the album that you created as well. Albums that you create on the iPad in the Photos app are for local organization only and cannot be transfer or imported to your computer, because there really are no photos in those albums
