Deleting songs from an ipod mini

If I delete a song from my playlist for my ipod mini does that mean that when I reconnect my ipod to the computer and it updates the ipod then the deleted songs will no longer be on the ipod?
If this is not the case can someone tell me how to delete songs from the ipod mini.
Many thanks

Dear Tula
I am not sure where to pull up the control window application that you mention. Where exactly is the link on the Itunes window?
Thanks for trying to help. It is very much appreciated and Happy New Year!

  • Transferring songs from an iPod Mini

    I have an iPod mini and used to have a PC. I recently bought a MacBook, and now have iTunes 8 on my MacBook. How do I transfer to the songs from my iPod mini and transfer them to my MacBook into iTunes?

    What about iTunes purchases that you buy on your computer, I can not transfer any of those songs onto my daughters iPod that she gave me since she got an iPhone for Christmas and no longer uses her iPod. We reset it and erased all the data and now it will only transfer one song. Sorry for getting in on this thread, no one responded to mine when I asked the question.
    Thanks,

  • How do I transfer songs from my ipod mini to my computer or to my itunes library? Songs/playlists show up as being on ipod but cant move to itunes library.

    How do I transfer songs from my ipod mini to either my computer or to my itunes library.

    Hello Christopher,
    There are 2 ways to go about this.  One is to use the manual method which is a little different depending on whether or not you use a Mac or a PC or you can opt to use a 3rd party software that can help you accomplish the task as well.  See this older thread for a list of possible software you could use.

  • Is there a way to delete songs from an ipod without having to connect to iTunes?

    is there a way to delete songs from an ipod without having to connect to iTunes?

    Does delete (from the iPhone) really delete the songs from the iPhone, or just hide the songs?
    I normally list "By artist".  I can delete an album (by swiping on the album sidways and then pressing delete), and the album (and all the songs) don't appear in the music player on the iPhone; But when I look at music in iTunes for the iPhone, the songs are still there.
    I'm confused.

    can i delete songs from my ipod classic

    Hello Todd,
    You can't delete them directly from the iPod.  You need to do it through iTunes.  How you delete music depends on how you have it set up to sync with your iTunes library, whether that be automatically or manually.  All this is covered in your iPod's User Guide.

  • Deleting songs from an IPOD

    New to the iPod thing, so this may be an easy question.
    Is there any way to delete songs from the iPod without deleting them from my library in iTunes?
    Or I guess the question is how to I remove songs (audiobooks) from my iPod?

    Have your ipod connected to your computer. Now, if your ipod is manually managed, do this: Click on the ipod icon. Highlight the song(s) you want to delete. Go to Edit >> Clear (or right click >> clear). That should have deleted the song from your ipod and not the library..

  • How do i delete songs from my ipod? i got it used a while back and it had a bunch of music on it that i dont want. i went to my itunes account and clicked on music to try to delete the music, but my no music came up. music is on my ipod though

    i logged onto itunes and went to MUSIC under library and no music came up. I know that i have music on my ipod though because it shows up on my ipod. I am trying to delete that music. How do i do this??

    How you delete content from your iPod depends on how it is set up to sync with your iTunes library whether that be automatically or manually.
    If it's automatically, you must reconfigure your settings so that the album you wish to remove is no longer configured to sync to your iPod.  For example, if the Sync only checked songs and videos option is enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab, make sure all the tracks for this album do NOT have a tick mark next to them in your iPod.  Then resync your iPod with iTunes.
    Otherwise, if you manually manage your iPod's contents, you must manually remove content from it.  You can do this by plugging your iPod in and clicking the small black triangle next to your iPod from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes.  This will open up a submenu of content, so go ahead and click on Music. Locate the track or tracks you wish to delete. Highlight them and hit the Delete key or choose Edit -> Delete.

  • How do you delete songs from your ipod???

    How do i delete songs on my ipod

    How you delete content from your iPod depends how you have it set to update:
    If you are updating automatically then delete the files from the iTunes library and next time you connect they will automatically be deleted from your iPod. Highlight the file and press the delete key on your keyboard, or right click and choose either Clear or Delete, depending on which version of iTunes you are using.
    If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and click on the icon when it shows in the iTunes 7 source list click on the chevron ( the little triangle) to the left of the iPod icon This will display the various icons for the iPod itself, Music, Movies, TV Shows and Playlists. Click on Music and you'll see the traditional song view. Find the files on your iPod that you want to remove, highlight them and delete directly.
    To select multiple items such as all the songs in an album, click on the first track in the list hold down the shift key and click on the last track to highlight the selection. Then press the delete key.
    To summarise, you start by highlighting the song/video/selection in either the iTunes library or on the iPod song list as displayed in iTunes then press the delete key on your keyboard: Deleting songs or playlists from your iPod

  • Transferring songs from my iPod mini to my PS3

    How do I get all the song titles and info for the songs on my iPod mini to come up on my PS3? Can I download iTunes on my PS3? When I connected my iPod to the PS3 some song titles came up but the majority of them did not. A lot of other songs said unsupported data and I think those are the songs that I downloaded off iTunes. Thanks for help.

    What about iTunes purchases that you buy on your computer, I can not transfer any of those songs onto my daughters iPod that she gave me since she got an iPhone for Christmas and no longer uses her iPod. We reset it and erased all the data and now it will only transfer one song. Sorry for getting in on this thread, no one responded to mine when I asked the question.

  • Transfer songs from a ipod mini that was created from another account

    I bought a used ipod mini that came loaded with over 400 songs which I would like to add to my itunes MAC account. The ipod mini is in Windows format and I understand that at sometime in the future I will have to restore the ipod mini in order to convert the device from Windows to MAC format thereby losing all the songs and data that are currently on the ipod. My itunes level is 7.6.1. I am running OS X 10.4.5.
    Is there any way to transfer or upload the songs from this device to my IMAC itunes account even though the songs were purchased and downloaded to the device by the original owner using his Windows itunes account.
    Thank You.

    Since you did not purchase the songs, they are not legally yours to keep.

  • Deleting songs from my Ipod

    Hi, I'm having trouble deleting from my Ipod through Itunes. When I click on the Ipod icon and view my songs they aren't in bold like in my library, and I can't click on any songs to delete them. Can anyone help me?
    Thanks.

    This means that your iPod is on autosync (not in bold). When iPod is on autosync, you can't make any changes. If you wish to make this kinds of changes, you will have to have iPod on manual sync.

  • Deleting song from itunes + ipod

    How do you delete more than one song at a time from itunes? Then you have to delete it again, so it doesn't go back to your ipod while syncing? Any tips would be appreciated!

    Hold the control key while selecting all the songs you want gone in itunes. Once highlighted hit the DEL key and confirm.
    Be sure you delete them from all the playlists they might show on.
    If you have automatic sync they will be wiped of your ipod too. If sync manually then you might need to do the same in the ipod (through itunes)

  • ??deleting songs from video ipod??

    im new to ipod and i already messed up...i didnt know when i connected my ipod to the computer it automatically started getting songs on it...now i went ahead and let it because i thought it was okay but now i have like none of my songs...so how do i DELETE ALL SONGS ON IT WITHOUT THE AC CORD to do a restore??(it didnt come with one)

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    You don't need the AC Adapter to restore a 5G iPod as it didn't come with one.
    You can just uncheck the songs you don't want on your iPod (in iTunes). Then connect your iPod to your computer. When it appears in iTunes go to edit-->preferences. Click the iPod tab, and then the music tab under that. Check Only Update Checked Songs and click OK. All unchecked songs in your iTunes library will be deleted from your iPod.
    Here are a a few other options...

  • How to transfer songs from old ipod mini to pc

    I am trying to transfer my music library to my old iPod mini into my pc iTunes library. I havent ever connected this iPod to this pc. It hasnt been turned on in at least a year. The library is showing up in iTunes but not an option to transfer music to iTunes library. Any suggestions?

    Clyde is right, You can't transfer music from iPod mini to PC.
    But after I do some searching, I found a thread that indicate another way to transfer your music from iPod to computer.
