Deleting an album in 1 go???

hi all ...
when im updating my touch is there a way to delete an whole album at once ..
at the moment i have to delete albums song by song ....
i dont use sync coz it takes tooooo long so i have it set to "manually manage music"..
also why is there no coverflow when im browsing my touch though itunes...so i could just right click to delete....
maybe im just missing who to do it ....
i have posted this Q before but with no luck....CHEERZ....AL....

Using playlists is much easier to manage what goes onto your iPod.
Try creating playlist(s) and syncing only those playlists.
Select the iPod in iTunes. Click the Music tab.
Tick Sync music and Selected playlists.
Tick the playlists you want on the iPod.
Then just add/delete from those playlists and plug in the iPod.
The only time I uncheck things is for items I never or rarely want on the iPod such as old audiobooks and Christmas music.

  • I recently deleted two albums off of my iphone via itunes but, they are still showing up on my phone, they are not albums that i have purchased through itunes, can someone help me figure out how to delete them please?

    I recently deleted two albums off of my phone using itunes, but when i went back onto my phone, they were still there and playable. they are not songs that I have purchased via itunes so can someone please help me figure out what is wrong so that i can fix the problem

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

    Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

    You do the opposite of how you got them on your phone, you unsync the pics using iTunes.

  • How do I delete an album purchased on my i-phone for from the i-phone's i-tunes?

    The i-tunes on my i-phone is set up to sync with the i-tunes on laptop - if I purchase a song on either, it appears on the phone straight away. But I cna't figure out how to delete tracks purchased in this way from the phone. Help...?

    Try swiping to the left instead. Works for me. In the music app I can delete songs by swiping to the left, but I cannot delete an album in the same manner

  • How do I delete photos in camera roll without deleting in albums?

  • How to delete pix/albums in iPhoto for iOS.?

    I created two Journals in iPhoto for iOS.
    When uploading to the iCloud I constantly run into "Storage almost full" problems. I have already deleted many apps to create space, but iPhoto seems to consistently grow in size (iPad > Settings>General> Usage: 6.8GB for iPhoto), worse yet, when publishing the Journals which are on the iPad it seems that additional space is needed for the publishing process.
    I did NOT find a way to delete either Pictures or Albums in the iPhoto for iOS app, nor do I find a way to delete Photos and Camera in Settings, nor (individual or a range of) Photos or Albums in the Photos app. In the Photos tab of the Photos app there is a red Delete button, but this is greyed out; in the Albums tab this Delete button does not appear at all.
    Any advice/suggestion/pointer would be highly appreciated. Thanks and cheers from Austria.

    See this:
    iPhoto for iOS (iPad): Delete photos from iPhoto
    Basically, you have to delete the photos the same way you got them onto the iPad in the first place.
    In the Photos.app, you should be able to delete photos in the camera roll and in the events that have been uploaded using the camera connection kit, but no other.
    Any synced photo can only be deleted by syncing again.
    For Photos that have been edited, you need to undo all edits, before you can delete them, otherwise the delete button will not be active.
    Albums created by tagging cannot be deleted, they are created automatic. You delete these albums by removing the tags from the photos. Then the album will vanish.

  • Every time I try and delete an album from my ipod using itunes but doing so manually as was suggested, it is also deleted from the itunes library that i have set up.  How do I just delete albums from my ipod and not loose them from my pc itunes library?

    I have an extensive itunes library on my pc.  I want to delete albums from my ipod but still keep them in my itunes library.  Everytime I try to delete by right clicking on the album and choosing delete, I also loose the album from itunes.  I have just gotten an old iphone and put just classical and jazz on the iphone and want to delete those albums from my ipod but alas I will be loosing them from the iphone as well as soon as I sync with itunes in the future.  I put settings into manual manage music but still the albums go off itunes.  Any suggestions?

    I'm thinking you sync to your computer over Wi-Fi, if correct, switch to sync when connected to iTunes, turn off sync over Wi-Fi. Hope this helps, Good luck. Cheers.

  • I am planning a long vacation and taking my laptop but it is my home computer that my new ipad and ipod touch are synced too. I know i can backup to the cloud over wifi but how can i do things like delete photo albums

    I am planning a long vacation and taking my laptop but it is my home computer that my new ipad and ipod touch are synced too. I know i can backup to the cloud over wifi but how can i do things like delete photo albums instead of having to manually delete pictures one by one on the Ipad. Is there any way also to add my pictures to the ipad other than through email. i am assuming that i can't just install itunes on the laptop and sync to that. I have been told that i always have to sync to my original synced home computer for that.

    The links below have instructions for deleting photos.

  • HT201272 I accidentally deleted an album from my iTunes library and now that i want to re download it is saying that it has already been purchased but i don't have it how do i get the album back?

    I accidentally deleted an album from my itunes library and i want to buy it again but itunes is saying that i have already purchased it but i don't have it in my library. How do i buy the album again?

    Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

  • HT4236 I've run out of room on my hard drive. I bought an external drive and exported all my albums to the external drive then deleted the albums from iPhoto. I want to sync both from my ext drive and new albums in iPhoto. No dice. Help!

    I've run out of room on my hard drive. I bought an external drive and exported all my albums to the external drive then deleted the albums from iPhoto. I want to sync both from my ext drive and new albums in iPhoto. My photos on the devices get wiped out when I sync to iPhoto since I deleted all the albums. But when I sync to my hard drive (where I maintained the album structure) the photos are copied to my iPad but lose all the hierarchy and folder structure. Now I have to scroll through thousands of photos to try to find the one I'm looking for. Before I sync any more devices I want to know the following: 1) can I restore the album structure on my iPad by using the photo cache? 2) is there a way to sync both new iPhoto albums AND pictures in the folders in my hard drive? And 3) how can I keep the photo hierarchy structure from my hard drive intact on my devices?

    Don't do that.
    Copy /Photos/Photo library/ to the external.
    Hold Option and launch iPhoto.
    Select Choose library and select the Photo library you copied to the external.

  • Where is the photo tab on itunes? My device is not listed on the left side of my screen and there is no photos tab on the right of my screen. I want to delete photo albums that were synced through itunes to my ipad 3.

    I synced several photo albums to my iPad 3  from my computer through iTunes. Now, I would like to remove them and have discovered that they cannot be removed except through using iTunes. Instructions that I've read say that once the device is connected to and selected from the list in iTunes, select the Photo Tab and then the folder that contains the photos etc.  I never get that far because I do not have a Photo Tab to select in iTunes. How do I find this illusive tab so that I can delete these albums that are merely duplications of other pictures and are just occupying space. I need to get rid of them. Can anyone help me find the photo tab. I cannot move past that step until I do. Also, my device is not listed on the left side as stated in the instructions. It's in the bar on the upper right area of my screen and is automatically selected when connected. I am using the current version 11.1 for iTunes and IOS 7 on my iPad 3, if that helps.

    I have the same problem on the latest iTunes software and Windows 7. My window is maximzed and I do not see any tab for photos. Seems related to a recent update (IOS7?) as this was there - at least before the very big change to the interface.

  • How to manually delete and album from iPod Nano v 1.1.3

    Dear Forum Members:
    I want to manually delete an album or two from my iPod Nano. I am have trouble getting iTunes to sync as the sync button is grey in iTunes 11.3 (on XP OS / Desktop). I don't know how to delete an Album to free up space on iPod Nano either. I just want to occasionally swap out a CD from my iPod Nano (i.e., delete one Album, add one, and so on).
    My iPod Nano is completely full and has no capacity to add new Albums, yet the iPod still works and I don't want to throw it away.
    Please help!
    Thanks,
    CB   

    Hi cbbond,
    It sounds like you want to remove some but not all of the music from your iPod nano. If you choose to Manually manage music and videos in iTunes, as shown in the article below, you can choose to delete specific albums and tracks from the device.
    Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
    If you're still unable to delete the specific album after setting up manual management, try restoring the iPod and syncing music to it again.
