Deleted Playlist, but Songs Still Remain

I have a playlist of Christmas songs on my iPod Nano along with a general playlist of other songs. I want to be able to play ONLY the Christmas songs, but I want them to play on shuffle. When I select "shuffle songs" it randomly plays ALL songs, not just the Christmas songs. So I deleted the general playlist from the iPod, leaving only the Christmas playlist. Then I tried "shuffle songs" and it still plays some of the 800 other songs that are on the playlist I just deleted. The Christmas playlist is currently the only list showing on my iPod (containing 61 songs). However, if I go into the "songs" or "artists" menu, all the other 800+ songs are still there, even though I deleted their playlist.
How do I get rid of these other songs so I can play shuffled Christmas songs? Or, how do I just get the iPod to shuffle songs from one playlist, if possible?

If you want to shuffle songs in a playlist you go to settings and then on shuffle click the middle button once, so its says 'songs.' Then you can select the playlist and select the ong you want to start with. After that it will shuffle within the playlist.
I hope this helps.

  • Songs still remain on my device even after I uncheck the songs in my library. How can this be fixed?

    In music library I upload songs but some songs I uncheck in my library but they still remain on my device. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    One thing you can do is delete it from the device by sliding leftr on the song to make the delete icon apear and delete it there and also check the box in iTunes saying only sync checked songs and videos.

  • Deleted contact birtday event still remains?

    deleted contact birtday event still remains in icloud calendar?

    I'm having the same issue, but fortunately only with one contact. Deleting/renaming/re-entering the contact doesn't help.
    It's as if the iCloud Birthdays Calendar is pulling the birthdays from contact info when it detects a change but instead of replacing the information like the contacts database does it is adding to it. So, renaming a contact is resulting in another entry for that contact and because the original contact wasn't deleted just renamed the birthday event is staying there and can't be deleted since the calendar is read only.
    I have (and would suggest anyone else having the same issue do the same) submitted a report at www.apple.com/feedback

    How do I clean up mail in my icloud?  I have already deleted old mail (from all my e-mail accounts) on all devices, and emptied the junk & deleted files, but it still shows that I am at max on my icloud. What do I do to free up space? (photos & apps do not take up that much room).  When I go to manage storage on any device & it will display how much room each program or app is using, it still shows that my e-mail is taking up the most room.  Is there a way to actually log on to the icloud server to manage what it stored there?  If so, how do I do it?  Also, on a related subject,  why does my mail not sync accross all devices?   ie. when I delete an email on one device, why do I still see it on all my other devices?  How can I change this?

    Mail is backed up automatically. If you make backups automatically, open Mail application and then, open the Time Machine app (in /Applications/Utilities). You will access to the Time Machine interface, and you will be able to see all your mails of all the backups you have, and you will be able to restore them. It means that your mails are backed up onto the Time Capsule

  • Hey, i bought iphone 5 and i downloaded an app called "Ab Workouts Free, Fit Club!", then i deleted it but it still charges me and renews itself automatically. What should i do to stop it charging me? Thanks.

    Hey,  i bought iPhone 5 and i installed an app called "Ab Workouts Free, Fit Club!", then i deleted it but it still charges me (4.99 pounds) by renewing itself authomatically. this app billed me 4 times since i deleted it. What should i do to stop it from doing this. Thanks.

    If this app has an automatically renewing subscription, as it seems it does, you have to unsubscribe. Just deleting the app will not do it. See:

  • IPhone 6 Plus-iOS 8.3 Deleted all music on my phone but songs still showing

    I have a problem where I cannot delete some/most of the songs on my iPhone. I've already tried syncing the phone with my iTunes library (which is empty on my computer) and these songs are still on my phone. There's about 185 of them. I've tried this http://ios.wonderhowto.com/how-to/delete-phantom-icloud-songs-your-iphone-015457 5/ before, but with 185 songs, it's rather cumbersome and time consuming. Has anyone found a fix for getting rid of these seemingly corrupted music files? Apparently this has been a problem since iOS 7, but you'd think Apple would have worked this out by now.

    Update: I resorted to completely wiping my phone yesterday and starting over from scratch in case there were some corrupted files in an iCloud backup. I started redownloading music from iCloud this morning and the same thing has happened. It's the same songs too. So, restore/wipe/reset did not resolve the problem. There's a deeper issue here that needs to be fixed. Anyone have any ideas? Apple?

  • Personal Domain changed but iWeb still remains with the old one

    Hi,
    recently I changed my Personal Domain on MobileMe. Unfortunately iWeb still remains with the old one: Even if I create a new iWeb-Domain the problem occurs. I also checked whether this is a local iMac problem or not but it isn´t unless I have the same issue with my MacBook Air using the same MobileMe Account. Every time I open iWeb the 'Settings Page' shows the old personal domain name (displayed in brackets behind the MobilMe Account information). At MobilMe the new Personal Domain name displayed as the active one.
    Any Ideas?
    Thanks in advance
    Mikl

    I have this same problem.. Any help would be appreciated!!!

  • I cannot remove songs that downloaded to my iphone 5 from cloud off my iphone, i deleted all music from iphone but they still remain

    I upgraded to a iphone 5 and transferred my music to my new phone.  Apparently what i think is happening is that my purchased music is automatically downloading to my iphone and I do not want this.  I have checked manually manage music etc on itunes and turned off music from icloud on my phone so I think im ok there.  My problem that I am having is that I cannot get rid of the music it already downloaded from the cloud.  Please help I just want this off my phone.

    I have the same problem. I have 21 songs that cannot be deleted. I have tried to delete them from my phone using itunes. I have deleted them from my itunes library completely and when I sync the phone they just keep coming back. The phone shows the cloud symbol to the right of the song title. When you touch the symbol a circle with a square in the centre represents loading the song. When that is complete I try to swipe form right to left and a delete button appears. Great! but when you touch it the song remains and the cloud symbol has returned. I have even tried a master reset on my phone to no avail. I do not have itunes Match and when I log into the cloud there is no where I can see where these songs are stored. My fifteen year old daughter has spent 4 hrs trying to figure this out and she gave up! HELP PLEASE! The songs are an album my daughter purchased from the itunes store using my ID and although she loves them on her ipod I can't stand them and can't get them off my phone. I don't even know how they got there in the first place. Arrrrgh!

  • Help! iPod Touch deleted songs after connecting to iTunes but songs still show up in iTunes display

    I connected my iPod Touch 64GB (iOS 5.1.1.) to iTunes (12.0.5.00) on my MacBook Pro (10.10.2) in order to add a couple of podcasts.  Unfortunately, now only the podcasts show up on my iPod display -- they're the only audio media on the device. My 6500 songs, all my playlists are gone from the iPod (and iPod display) as well. However, on the iTunes display on my computer, when my iPod is connected, all my songs and playlists are there.
    Hoping I can get some help figuring out what went wrong and how to get the songs back on my iPod so I don't have to manually add them all from a backup external hard drive (I don't keep them all in iTunes nor all the backup files on my computer's hard drive to save space).
    You can see in the photo below on the left side of the display, 'On My Device', all my playlists remain. On the main display, all my music is there -- it's just not on the actual iPod itself. You can also see at the bottom of the screen, the iPod capacity bar, which shows that 56.80 GB is free, suggesting the songs are in fact, deleted from the iPod.
    Can anyone assist? Any thoughts as to why the songs & playlists still show up in iTunes if they are in reality deleted from the iPod?
    Thank you for any info or assistance, it's very much appreciated.
    Derek

    And I've now tried connecting the iPod to an older Macbook running iTunes 12.0.0.140 and I'm getting the same thing -- the songs and media shows up under 'Devices' on the left, but they are not actually there. Trying to double click on them brings up the symbol. Wondering how the 'ghost' effect of them showing up in iTunes can happen if they are no longer on the iPod itself.
    Thanks again for any thoughts, suggestions, or assistance.

  • ITunes update deleted my playlists. Songs still there, playlists wiped off the Earth.

    Last night I updated iTunes and I decided to restart later. Today after I restarted it, all my iTunes playlists were deleted.
    All my songs are there, but the playlist is wiped off. Is there a way to restore this/anyone else have this happen to them?

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

  • Why does my deleted songs still remain?

    My darling wife has downlaoded some songs from iT, and to say that I haste them is an underestimate!!
    What I have done is deleted them from iT and synced my iphone 5 with the 'only checked songs and vidoes' ticked, so surley the songs that I have checked should be on my iphone!
    I do use iC, but surely when I sync my phone on my mac, the songs that I have checked to be on my phone should be on my phone.
    Hopefully I have not confused you....
    Thanks in advance.
    xx

    Why would you buy them again?
    Do you fail to backup your purchases?
    Just redownload them:

  • HT203167 I synced my ipod touch and for whatever reason I have now opened an itunes library with some songs missing. Theses songs still remain on my touch but the ipos will not sync them back on to my library!Any ideas?

    I synced my ipod touch  and the library opened up with some songs missing. These songs remain on my ipod, I thought that by syncing they would return to my itunes library. But they won't. Has anyone seen this before?

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases back to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For music purchased from other sites or copied from your own CDs then are they not already on your computer and/or on a backup ? If not then you will need to find a third-party program that can copy them off the iPod.
