Can't delete a song or playlist

everytime i try and delete this one song, it goes away. when i then reconnect the mini, there the song is again. It also creates some kind of playlist which i did not create and that too will not go away.
I do have a error message about "...temp file 3 is corrupt & unreadable. Pls run chkdsk utility"
I also just purchased Madonna's new single and that won't drag into my mini although it seems to when i do the drag and drop thing.
thanks

perform a "First Aid" (open disk utility, click on your iPod and then click on "Repair Disk").

    bostonshazzer,
    What model iPod do you have?  This feature is not supported on all models. You are positive you are holding down the Select (Center) button with the song highlighted until it disappears?  Are you sure you are in your On-the-Go playlist and not just a regular one?

  • Can i delete certain songs from 1pod nano

    can i delete certain songs from my ipod nano?

    It depends on how you sync your iPod, if you sync with playlists you can remove a song by clicking it then clicking delete, if you sync by artist, album or genre you can't delete certain song. You can't delete them on your iPod.

  • How can I delete duplicate songs that are appearing on my iphone but not in my itunes?

    How can I delete duplicate songs that are appearing on my iphone

    Hi jpere041,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You can delete individual songs, artists, albums, playlists, compilations and composers from your iPhone. To delete an item, swipe across it, then tap Delete.
    This information is on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide
    manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Delete a song from iPhone: In 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.
    Regards,

  • How can I delete a song from iCloud / iTunes Match, but keep it on my Mac?

    How can I delete a song from iCloud / iTunes Match, but keep it on my Mac?
    I subscribed to iTunes Match a few weeks ago and my entire library was uploaded.  I do not want all of my library in the Cloud, especially given that there is a space/song limitation.  Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Apologies Brandon, we have moved on somewhat from your original question.
    What I have done is effectively used Michael's idea. I'll try to explain a little further.
    You can run iTunes match on up to 5 computers, and you can edit the iCloud library on any of them. Michael's idea works on the basis that, whilst you can edit the iTunes library, you can't remove songs from other computers.
    I have basically the same setup as you, but I also have a MacBook Air, which is running iTunes Match but without any music downloaded so it all streams.
    I added the songs on my main library, which then added them to the cloud. When they appeared on my MacBook I deleted them straight away. As there was no local copy I was asked if I wanted to delete them from the cloud, and I said yes. When I went back to my main computer I found that, as expected, they were still there, but the iCloud status is "removed". They are therefore on my library but not in iCloud.
    Since then I have run match updates a couple of times and there is no sign as yet that it will try to add them back to the cloud. It's too early to say that this is a definate answer to your problem, but it looks very hopeful.
    Our other discussions have moved onto the 25,000 son limit, which I note from your comment you may also be interested in. Watch this space.
    If you don't have access to a second computer to run the other library on then look back at Michael's post where he explains how to set it up on your main computer.
    Hope that clarifies a bit.

  • I have transferred my itunes library to an external drive. I then attached the external disk to a new computer. I can now access all songs from the new computer. But I can't access playlists. I can still  access all songs and playlists on the old computer

    If you right mouse and select Get info it will show you the Apple ID used to purchase these songs.
    Usually the name of an apple id is based on the email. So knowing that you may have forgotten the Apple ID password.

  • I can't drag my songs into playlists, or arrange them on a playlist. What's wrong?

    I can't drag my songs into playlists, or arrange them on a playlist. What's wrong?

    I have about 50 playlists that I created as playlists and have always been able to add songs to as I purchased them. The lists were originally created as regular playlists. Then, one day I opened up iTunes and all the existing playlists I had created as playlists, and has always added songs to, had the "gear" symbols and acted like genius playlists. How can I change them back and why did this happen...any ideas?

  • Can I delete a song from mu PC hard drive and still have it in the icloud?

    Can I delete a song from my PC hard drive and still have it in the icloud?

    Of course. This will only work if you are using iTunes Match or with the songs you purchased in the iTunes Store, because with iTunes 11, you can listen to them without having them saved on your Mac or PC

  • How can I delete duplicate songs in Itunes ?

    How can i delete duplicate songs in Itunes ?

    I have the same problem, where my music library shows duplicates of just about everything I put in iTunes now. It began about a month ago. As far as looking at Date Added, well they are duplicates all put on at the same time. It isn't a matter of the title showing up later, or my having accidentally added the same song twice (say, from different sources or compilations). This is a problem with Apple I think because it just began a month ago and I changed no settings, nor did I do anything else. It just began to happen out of the blue. Anyone know about this?
