Deleting tracks from zen mi

I have deleted tracks and albums from both the player and the mediasource, yet when I put it on 'random play all' the deleted tracks still play! Am I doing something wrong? I can't see what else I can do to get rid of these!
Please help!

Are you deleting the track from the Now Playing section? That will only delete the track listing in that section and not the actual file. If you need to delete the audio file from the player, you should go to the 'All Tracks' section in Music Library and delete from there.

  • Can't delete tracks from iCloud

    I'm trying to delete tracks from my iCloud instance.
    In iTunes, I delete from my library all of the tracks that I want removed from iCloud. A pop-up dialogue asks if I would like to remove these tracks from iCloud as well. I select the checkbox to indicate yes I do want. The tracks are then visibly removed from my local iTunes library. The next time iTunes Match runs, however, these tracks are re-populated in my iTunes library, as being matched in iCloud.
    Obviously I am missing some nuanced step in this process. Any hints?
    If it helps, I'd be perfectly happy to have my entire iCloud library deleted, and start fresh.
    Note: I am not deleting the files themselve from the filesystem, just trying to remove their entry in my iTunes library.

    Solved.
    My problem is a duplicate of https://discussions.apple.com/message/16988521#16988521
    Solution: delete tracks in groups <900, and be patient.

  • Problems deleting tracks from itunes

    I have a Mac, Iphone and Ipad. I have problems deleting tracks from iTunes. The issue I have is that tracks keep coming back. The issue goes something like this:
    I delete a track from iTunes. I sync with an IOS device. On sync, iTunes says there are purchased items on the IOS device not present in your library, do you want to import them? I select no, then iTunes imports the tracks anyway! Essentially the track I deleted from iTunes, gets imported back in from an IOS device, every time.
    This means I face the situation of having to delete tracks from all 3 devices, to stop them coming back. Am I doing something wrong?

    There is a way to do this, kindof. See my post here.
    The best way to do this if you want to be able to continue updating the Apple TV with new content would be to buy an external hard disk and keep all your movies (and the secondary library itself) on that disk. Then, when you want to add movies to the Apple TV, you would just connect the external disk, open the secondary library in iTunes, and add the movie into iTunes. The setting here that you need to be aware of is the "Copy to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" setting in iTunes Preferences > Advanced General. So long as this setting is on, any movie file that you add to the secondary library will automatically be copied by iTunes to your external drive. Once you're done syncing the Apple TV, and you verify that the movie file did in fact get copied to the external disk, you can delete the copy from the hard drive in your computer.

  • Deleting Tracks from the IP 4G

    I saw a discussion a while back which said there was no way to delete tracks from the i pod 4g unless you did it through itunes. Is this the case? I cannot find a way to do it, but then my "hd" and it's "ram" isn't what it used to be, if you know what I mean.

    That is correct

    How you delete content from your iPod depends how you have it set to update:
    If you are updating automatically (syncing) all songs and playlists then delete the files from the iTunes library. In the iTunes Library highlight the file and press the delete key on your keyboard. If you're updating the iPod from a selected playlist delete the song from the playlist and it will remain in the library.
    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. Next time you connect they will deleted automatically from your iPod.
    If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and when it shows in the iTunes 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 usual song list. Find the files on your iPod that you want to remove, highlight them and delete directly as above by pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
    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

  • Deleting Tracks Through Zen Micro Organi

    I used Zen Micro Organizer to delete duplicate tracks from the player but although the tracks were deleted in the organizer, they remain on the Zen Micro player. I tried using the synch feature but it says there are no tracks to transfer. Deleting tracks one-by-one on the player itself is tedious. How can I mark and delete the duplicate tracks off the player using Zen Micro Organizer?

  • Delete Track from iTunes Library if in User Playlist

    Hello
    I want to delete [music] tracks from the main iTunes [10.7] library if they are in a user playlist.
    I saw (on dougscripts.com) an approach where the database id was obtained from the track in the playlist and this was then used to delete from the main library.  However, it does not seem to work:
                        delete (some track of thePlaylist whose database ID is (get database ID of deleteTrack))
      returns error -1708 "... doesn't understand the delete message"
    I think this is to do with a change to the way in which the main library is referenced, but if anyone can shed some light it would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I found out what is happening: the tracks are shared from iCloud - via iTunes Match - which renders them un-deletable by AppleScript!

  • Deleting Tracks from Itunes and from Hard drive

    Hiya
    I used to click delete in Itunes and it would remove the track from both Itunes and my hard drive.
    However no it only deletes from Itunes, any way to get it back to how it was?
    Cheers

    I was having this problem and managed to find a solution.
    I had to change my iTunes folder to the same folder that my music was actually located in.
    In iTunes:
    Edit -> Preferences... -> Advanced -> (iTunes Music Folder Location) Change..
    Hope this helps some people.

  • How to delete tracks from iOS device?

    Hello!
    Could somebody help me with a problem?
    How can I delete tracks, stored in my device memory (im usuing iPhone 4) when itunes match mode turned on?
    "Swipe to delete" on tracks/artist doesn't work. So the swipe works only when itunes match mode if off and its very uncomfortable to switch off itunes match everytime if I just wand to delete few albums!

    There is actually a simple solution but you have to delete all of the music thats on the device you cant get rid of the tracks individually go to setting->general->usage under storage find music swipe to delete, clears any music stored from itunes match

  • Media Source - 'file of this name already exists' transfering tracks from Zen Micro to

    I've come home for the weekend, and I'm trying to transfer a few albums from my Zen Micro to my Mum's PC for her. Normally this works fine, but for some reason today I keep getting the message 'A file of this name already exists' for about 80% of the tracks I try to transfer. One or two tracks from each album will work and the rest will fail.
    These are new tracks and they definitely aren't already in her music library - I've double checked the C dri've too.
    I'm given the option to overwrite the exisiting tracks, so I gave that a try with one album, but the tracks still aren't didn't show on there once I'd transfered, despite the track number not going up, so god knows what's been overwritten with those!
    Can anyone help?
    Cheers!

    Your firmware is not the PlaysForSure version.
    Anyway, I just want to make sure that you have set up the directory and file naming convention correctly for MediaSource. Here is what you should do:
    - Launch Creative MediaSource Oragnizer.
    - Go to Tools->Settings->PC Music Library and click Properties. Set your preferred folder and file naming convention. Close the setting page.
    - In the Sources window, click to view PC Music Library.
    - Go to View->Right Panel View and select to view your MP3 player.
    - Transfer the tracks from your MP3 player to MediaSource's PC Music Library by clicking the arrow pointing from right to left.
    - If you have updated the track information of the tracks in your MP3 player, the updated track information will also be imported into the PC Music Library database. However, the tags of the files are not updated. Here is what you need to do. Right click the PC Music Library node in the Sources window or right click on any tracks in the PC Music Library window and select "Update Tag". This will update the tag of all the tracks or the selected tracks with the track information as seen in the PC Music Library.

  • Deleting tracks from library within smart playlists

    I use iTunes 10.6.1 (7) on Mac.
    I spend some time googling and searching for solutions for my problem, but everything is either outdated or simply doesn't work.
    I have a smart playlist with all songs that are matched on iTunes Match, but which are below 256k bitrate. I want to delete them from the library, so I can download new 256k versions of them.
    This is supposedly possible by using Option + Delete, but that doesn't work for me. I also tried all kinds of other combinations like SHIFT + Option + Delete or CRTL + Option + Delete and none of them work.
    What am I doing wrong?

    I should add that I have come up with one workaround, although its very clunky.
    I add a comment to all tracks in that SPL, which marks them for deletion. I then go into the main music library and filter by that comment (after adding the comment column). This now has allowed me to delete and redownload the tracks.
    However I will have to do this step again every time and ofc I need to remove the comment after it is all downloaded now.
    I still don't get why Option + Delete isn't working for me, as all posts that I come across state that as the "solution"

  • [TOUCH] How to delete track from playlist on play

    Is it possible to delete a track from a playlist, but not have the track delete from the player? I cannot seem to figure out how, but I am guessing I am missing something because that seems like a pretty basic function.
    I go into Playlists, find the playlist I want, click OK, ask to View Tracks. I find the track I want and click on the OK button. It give me the option to Delete the Track, but when I select that option it deletes the track from the player, not the playlist.
    I know I could do this if I used my PC to do it, but I wanted to be able to do this in the car when I realize I have a song on a playlist I do not want there.
    Thoughts?

    groovy girl,
    It sounds like your app is not responding.
    Try to exit itunes,then restart your PB.
    Then go to Finder>Go>Utilities>Disk Utility and repair permissions.
    Then go back to itunes and see if the delete command works.
    Good luck,
    Scott

  • Deleting tracks from timeline

    I'm knew to StudioPro, why is it when you delete a video clip, all clips behind it move forward, but when you delete the matching audio clip, all clips behind it stay put? Is this just how it is, or is there a trick I'm missing?

    Hi - welcome to the discussions.
    To answer your question... it's just how it is.
    Imagine for a moment that you are removing a section of footage from a stream of footage. What would happen when the 'hole' was reached? It couldn't play without the info so the clips shuffle along to fill the gap.
    Audio, on the other hand, is not so important in a video stream - you can, after all, have silence.
    What would be neat would be if the audio could get attached to the video and move with it when you remove a section. However, that isn't likely to be implemented, since in most professional workflows a track will have the footage composited and encoded before bringing it in to be authored. What you are effectively doing is continuing to composite the track from within the autrhoring environment. It's nice to be able to do so to make slight adjustments, but it isn't really what the app is about.

  • Deleting tracks from Match

    Hi there,
    I am over the 25,000 tracks now and I get the info from Apple that I am not allowed to sync more tracks through Match. That's OK. I knew that.
    But, I have deleted 17,000 tracks from my iMac and kept them in Match. Since I am over the 25,000 tracks on Match the 17,000 tracks are gone from iTunes in my iMac. I can not upload them anymore to my iMac. I still see them on my iPhone and iPad. That's strange in my opinion. I should be able to upload those 17,000 tracks to my iMac at anytime.
    Is it possible to delete the tracks only from Match, and not from my iMac?
    Is it possible only to sync playlists to Match and not whole albums?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi,
    If you create a new blank library and sign into itunes store / match, this will show all the tracks you have in match. Each track will have the cloud symbol with the download arrow.
    If you delete a track, this removes it from the cloud. If the track is still in your original library, the iCloud status will show as "Removed" once you have signed back into the original library. If you have previously deleted the track from your library, the track is now removed completely.
    I manage my library this way and have a couple of thousand tracks with "Removed" status. Such songs play as normal on your computer and are ignored when imatch updates are run.
    A word of caution - keep signed in to match. If you sign out then back in again, the match process runs again and will tell you that you have more than 25k tracks. If have had this problem a few times but has been solved by restoring the itunes library from a time machine backup.
    PS I reccmmend that you maintain and external back up of all your music. You should not rely on Match as your sole backup.

  • Can iTunes delete tracks from Playlist + FROM IPOD ITSELF?

    Hello,
    i'm pretty a newbie when it comes to iPod and iTunes. Haveing a nano and seen this problem today: I organize all my tracks in Folders on my HDD and drag the folders to the Playlist Bar, so i make a playlist of a complete folder. Then i drag the playlist on the ipod so i gat the same content on my nano as in the original folder on the harddrive. Now sometimes i want to delete some songs inside a playlist off the ipod (for example from a playlist with mixed single tracks, not albums). But when i delete a track out of the playlist, it still maintains on the iPod. Can i make Itunes delete the song automatically off my ipod when i remove it from a playlist? the way it is now i would have to see in the playlists, what tracks i want to delete and then go through the unsorted list with the tracks and delete the tracks by hand....

    I am using manual playlist, not this autofill feature. could you please explain this a little bit more in detail? wehre to uncheck the tracks, on the ipod playlist or on my local playlists on the left side of itunes?
    I dont know if you got me the right way. I am having a large playlist with a load of tracks. from this playlist, i would like to be able to delete tracks, but not only the playlist entry, also the files should be deleted from the ipod?
