Delete music/junk from cloud

all of my music is now being saved to the cloud. I dont think i accidently signed up for imatch. First, I want to access my music from my device and save to my computer. I dont care about icloud. Second there is a lot of junk that I dont remember having on the device that Iwant to delete, its not showing up on my computer when I sync and I cant delete it. How do I delete this crap without signing up for imatch?

Already tried that. Everything is off under settings/storage & backup (except find my phone) and everything is off under settings/music (including show all music and itunes match). I cannot delete any of the tunes that I dont remember downloading. I can delete the songs I know I downloaded by swiping left and touching delete or deleting from my computer. When I swipe left with the junk songs, it won't show the delete link. None of those junk songs show up in Itunes on my computer either. I didnt have this problem until I downloaded IS7. I tried resetting, but that didnt work either. I also deleted my icoud account. The only other thing I can think of is my daughter uses my computer for her Itunes account and maybe some of the comedy albums is stuff she downloaded to her account. Frustrating when half the stuff on my iphone is comedy and stuff I would never listen to.

How do I permanently delete music files from itunes AND my computer (without going to the folder to delete each item)? It's a windows system. I've tried 'reset all dialogue warnings' as I've been told to do but no luck. Files are still in Itunes folders.

Solved! Music was in Itunes folder but not in Media folder within that. It doesn't seem like a very user friendly system so far!

How to delete music albums from iphone?

They're DEFINITELY pushing Apple users that way. I just saw yet ANOTHER new/incredible feature the Galaxay can do that Apple (I mean Tim Cook) can't even DREAM about doing.
At this point, it's becoming an embarrassement to even own an iPhone. *sigh*

Delete music files from my pc

can I delete music files from my PC without having to lose them from my ipod classic. I dont see the need to clog up disc space with all the music I own on CD's so once I have them loaded onto my ipod I would like to erase them from my pc. If I then sync my ipod will it automatically delete everything that is no longer on my pc.

If you manually manage your music, you can do what you want. Check the "Manually manage music" box on the summary page in iTunes when the iPod is connected. Keep in mind that , should you ever need to restore your iPod, you may find that you'll need to re-rip all of your CDs. You may want to consider buying an external hard drive (I just picked up a terabyte drive for less than $150) and move your iTunes library there.
Best of luck.

Deleting music straight from iphone in ios 6.0.1

hi, i recently purchased an album from itunes on my iphone (4, ios 6.0.1) synced my iphone to my computer and now i have the one ablum duplicated in my music app. is there any way of deleting music straight from iphone in ios 6.0.1?

Not if you're using iTunes Match. You can only delete all downloaded music by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music, then tapping Delete. Then redownload the music you want from iCloud. If you aren't using iTunes Match, you can try swipping the album/songs to see if Delete appears; not sure if this works in iOS 6 or not. (It doesn't with iTuens Match anymore.)

HT1660 when deleting music files from iTunes and you select Keep File, where is that file stored and how it is retireved?

when deleting music files from iTunes and you select Keep File, where is that file stored and how it is retrieved?

The file is just left where it was when it was connected to the library. Typically:
<User>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music/<Artist>/<Album>/## <Name>.<Ext>
If you want to add it back just drag it into iTunes. If you want to cull the files you kept previously add the entire iTunes Media folder back into iTunes (or use one of Doug's scripts that has the same effect), then delete (and don't keep) the recent additions.
Note that warning/prompt is only issued when the files you are removing are located inside the designated iTunes Media folder.

Deleting songs downloaded from cloud?

Is it possible to delete songs I downloaded from my purchase history on my iPad?

ok, appologize for that i read both responses to this issue and figured people were wanting to be able to delete directly from the ipad/ipone. So by you saying "i have tried to sync it up....." that you are syncing to itunes.
so i have tried to duplicate the proplem you are having and here's the results, please if you want let me know if i have steered away again from what your problem is.
I have my itunes as "manualy manage music and videos" so i downloaded a song from the cloud to my ipad. I then plugged in my ipad to my mac and view my ipads library. I was able to highlight the song in itunes on the ipad library and successfully delete it. I then unpplugged ipad from my mac and the song was gone. I was also able to delete the song from the itunes library itself. Once i deleted the song i went to my ipad and went to the itunes app and redownloaded the song i deleted.
The only thing i can think of is which may or may not be the case in your situation is that you have sync checked songs and videos selected under your sync options in summary. In this case then you will lose control over your ipad music in itunes program but still you would be able to uncheck a song in the itunes library itself and then syn and it should be gone on the ipad.
I hope something in my succsesfull experiance of deleting a song from my ipad that was downloaded from the cloud and then redownloading it from the cloud will help in some way. My environment is ipad2 and mac os. It shouldn't make a difference if you have ipad1 or ipad2 but you never know if your using a pc it may have problems i know i had some problems when i used to have a pc not necesarily THIS problem but some other big headaches once i got a mac (im not advertising here just the facts) those problems are a thing of the past.
If you need to give me a little more details about your problem that i hav'nt been able to discern please do so i will rerun the cenario and see what i can come up with. If indeed what I've done is exactly what you've tried then i would call apple on the issue. They don't have an "Itunes support division but tech support would be who would help you. you can also do the chat with one in itunes store support on the computer.

How can I create a fIlter to delete only "junk" from the server?

One of my E-mail accounts is that of a major client. I handle their customer service online. Normally our protocol is to always leave all messages on the server, so for that one Thunderbird account, I have it set to never delete messages on the server.
But the account recently started getting a lot of junk messages. Thunderbird is doing a remarkable job at marking those and placing them in the junk folder for that account. I would like to create a filter that could remove them from the server, preferably those more than "x" days old so I could monitor the activity to be sure that no important message are removed.
I did notice that in "Filters" I can create a custom filter from a header of my choice, but can't seem to create what I want which is:
- after mail is marked as Junk by Thunderbird to delete those messages from the server if they are older than "X" days (my choice of "X").
- not delete any other messages from the server for that account

I believe that did it! Thank you. I am running those changes on a secondary E-Mail address for the same job and server and it appears to be working properly.

I cannot add or delete music manually from my iphone

I used to be able to manually add or delete music from my iPhone 4S in iTunes. I tried setting the phone to sync my library automatically and it filled up the phone, but now I can't get rid of any of it (and my storage is maxed out).
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Deleting music completely from nano

you must know this one.i got music i my nano now.and would like to clear it of my music and start over.do i need to have it connectd to my pc to do this.can u tell me how please.now when my nan is full is it possible to replace some of the music with something new without deleting my nano everytime. i sure this is an easy question and id be very thank full.

To delete all the music from your iPod nano, open the most recent version of the iPod updater you have installed and click the Restore button; this will erase everything currently on it.
To delete some of the music from your iPod nano, set it to sync manually. You can then add new music to it by dragging it onto the iPod in the iTunes source list, and delete music from it by selecting it on the iPod and pressing the Delete key.

How do I delete music videos from my ipad?

I have itunes match.
I am trying to get rid of music videos from my ipad.
i have gone to settings > "itunes & app store" -> "show all", and turned off "videos".
I have gone to videos > music videos. There is no edit button, and holding the item doesn't give me wiggle mode.
I have gone to the ipad settings in itunes and unchecked every possible setting to remove everything from the ipad. the music videos still stay.
the music videos are still playing even if I put the device in airplane mode. so they are ON the ipad.
How can I get rid of them
(ios 8.2, ipad2, itunes 12.1, yosemite)

If the numbers appear to add up properly when you look in your settings as suggested by drsailer, the incorrect storage reading might be due to corruption on your iPad that will show as a very, very high "other" storage amount in iTunes. Unfortunately, you can only see this figure in the capacity bar of iTunes when your iPad is connected to your computer and with iTunes running and the iPad selected under devices.
"Other" includes things like email messages, text messages, notes, Safari Bookmarks, Safari History, contacts, cached app data, etc. it should not take up more than a few GB at most and if you see something higher than 6,7, or more GB of "other", something got corrupted. Sometimes that can be dosed by restoring form a backup, sometimes you have to restore as brand new and start all over again. There is a wealth of "what to do about 'other," information a available if you do some searching with Google. Here is a start for you.

Stop music downloading from cloud

How do I stop my iPhone from downloading tunes from the cloud when the tune comes up in shuffle (which it shouldn't if it's not on the device in the first place)
It was recently restored and music I haven't sync'd back on the phone (mostly EP's I got from the 12 days of Christmas) keep downloading and playing as they come up on shuffle.
I have iTunes Match turned off in Music and iTunes settings.
I also have 'use mobile data' turned off in iTunes.
It only does it when I am on a wireless network thank god, but I don't want these tunes in my playlist. Once they do download I then can't seem to delete them either.

Hi,
I've got the same issue, was anybody able to sort it?

ITunes won't delete music files from default external hard drive . . . what to do?!

I really don't want to manually delete 6 GB of stuff that's not in my library but still in the music folder. Yes . . . the external hard drive is listed as the default music location. THANK YOU!

Hmm, perhaps it wasn't when you deleted the files, or there is a permissions issue. Test by adding back a known redundant file, then deleting from iTunes. Does it get deleted from the hard drive? If so, great add back the entire media folder, then delete everything added today. If not...
Right-click on your main media folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and system full control to this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
Now try again...
I also have a script called KillSelectedFiles which is useful when the source files are located outside of the designated iTunes Media folder but In your case it shouldn't be necessary.
