These are the downsides of a shared library because if you delete the song from your library it will get also automatically deleted from your kids library. If you want to proceed then please follow this guide: https://support.apple.com/kb/HT4915

Ever since my last update I have been unable to add songs from my i tunes library onto my i phone. The "add to" button does not appear for me when I connect my i phone. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
Thanks again, Sandra2474.

How do I get rid of songs from my phone?

Like whenever I want to delete a song from my phone, it shows the icloud sign. When I shuffle the music, it will still play the song. I just want to get rid of them off my phone so it won't play it ever again. I have ios 7.0.4. I know in ios 6 when you delete a song, it goes away from your library. How do I get rid of songs on ios 7 and not keep playing them?

I think there must be a bug somewhere. Some songs I can delete and they disappear. But none of my attempts to remove the Justin Timberlake song from Apple's 12 days of gifts have gotten me very far. I can 'delete' it so that it is listed as needing to be downloaded again. But it seems to be just marked as deleted. If I turn off 'Show all music' in my Settings, the song remains there, but no longer has the cloud icon beside it, but also will not swipe to show the delete button. If I turn 'Show all music' back on, the cloud icon reappears. Regardless the song will play, even in airplane mode. So it is clearly still on my iPad.
I have tried resetting my iPad - changes nothing. Apple seems determined that we keep this song!
Also, since I attempted to delete the song immediately after it downloaded, it doesn't appear on my iMac iTunes synch page. So I can't try to get rid of it that way.
Very frustrating.

HT204406 I download a song & then I try to drag it into a playlist & I get a warning "iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, my iPod will be removed from iCloud and will only be available on this computer.

I'm sorry to see that no one has answered this. I'm hoping Apple with reply to my support request, as I'm having the same issue. I really don't want to continue with iCloud at this point.

I have 3 songs waiting to download for 3 days. I am unable to swipe to delete and I have rebulit my itunes libary which did not remove the songs from my phone. What do I need to do to get rid of these songs?

Hi RadarCat16,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know it can be frustrating when you are waiting for content to download to your iPhone from the iTunes Store. There are a few steps I would recommend in this situation. Please read over and follow the steps in the attached article.
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
Enter your account name and password if prompted.
Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
Have a great day,
Joe

Can't get songs from library to ipod

hi
i just bought an ipod yesterday. I was able to get songs from my cd's to the library. I can't get the songs from the library to my ipod. When i look in the user guide, i see an option button which looks like it should be in the bottom right hand corner. My itunes does not have this button. I even removed programs and downloaded from apple website. What am i doing wrong.

hi!
* Sorry for my last post, this is want i want you to search for:
SYNC/ERASE
* using the latest iPod Updater and iTunes Correctly:
1. Run iPod updater, then connect your iPod shuffle
2. After it recognizes the iPod, run iTunes
3. The iTunes will not recognize the iPod shuffle.
4. Close the iPod updater, iTunes will now recognize the iPod shuffle
5. You could now sync/erase your songs
* I think the iPod shuffle updater program conflicts with iTunes program:
Coz, if you just connect your iPod shuffle and let the iTunes run automatically, the iTunes will recognize it while the windows will recognize it for just a sec then disconnects it, that's why you couldn't sync/erase yor songs.
** Only tested in iPod shuffle, but i think this will work too if you got the same problems.
* wait 5-10 sec for each steps (1-3)
i hope this would help you!..

Have you plugged in your iPhone to the computer? In iTunes > File > Devices you should be able to "Transfer Purchases."
In iTunes > Store have you authorised the computer?

HELP! how do you get songs from your library ...

i'm having trouble getting songs from my library to my ipod. HELP!!!!!1
Dell? Windows XP ?????

James, you are going to have to be a lot more specific as to what's going on when you try to sync your music to your iPod before anyone has a clue on how to start to help you. Please include what kind of iPod you have, what version of iTunes you're using, any error messages or error codes that are happening. The more information you post, the better chance you have of getting some help.

How do I get songs from my old Ipod onto my Iphone? I have a new apple ID for my phone... Do I need to use my old apple ID to get songs from my Ipod to my Iphone?

I need help getting songs from my Ipod to my Iphone. I have a different Apple ID on my ipod... I am not sure of that Apple ID. How do I figure that out? How do I get my songs to all be on my Iphone.
I do not want to repay for songs I have already.

Are the songs on a computer? Right mouse click on a song and on the summary page it will tell you what AppleID was used to purchase it.
If you are going to carry on using the same computer then just plug in the iPhone and sync the information there. So you will have a copy on your iPhone and maybe different stuff on your ipod.

How do I get it so that when I delete a song from my phone it doesn't come back when I sync with iTunes?

Hi,
I was wondering if there was a way to deselect a song from my iTunes account automatically when I delete the song from my phone so that I don't have to go through my iTunes account and deselect everything I had deleted before I sync? I'm really big on putting everything I have from several different artists onto my phone and just deleting the songs I don't like as I hear them (very rairly do I actually remember what the song was called let along who the artist was) and often don't have the time/inclnation to go through each song on both my phone and iTunes account to find which ones sould not be checked (seriously who has the time to do this, and even if you do wouldn't you rather spend it doing something else).
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you from the girl who just inadvertently synced back over 2,000 songs to her phone.

My understanding is that music syncing is a one way process from computer iTunes to your iPhone. I think what you are asking is to have IOS synching back to an OSX or PC system. The software doesn't work that way.
You either have to uncheck the songs to be synced or create a separate playlist for "BC Canada iPhone" and only sync that playlist.
As well any purchases you made on your iPhone need to be transferred to your iTunes so they can come back to your phone when you re-sync.
Hope this helps, even though it's not the answer you might have wanted.
Cheers

How can i remove all of the purchased songs from my phone?

I want to remove all of the purchased songs from my phone, but I'm not having any success. I've transferred the purchases to iTunes, and turned off the cloud on my phone, but they are still there. They will not let me delete them...

They go away until the next sync and then they return to the list. They are shown in iTunes greyed out with a broken circle in the first column when manually viewing them.
It's an iPhone 5S, I'm running the latest OS, 8.1.
OK, maybe time to get extreme. I've had similar experiences, sometimes occurring after making direct-to-device purchases and sometimes after doing an iOS update. In the two times I've experienced what you've seen I've fixed it by digging deeper, bear with me:
If your iPhone is not set for manual management, do so. (i.e. select "Manually manage music and video")
While connected to iTunes, navigate the contents of the iPhone. Select all songs and delete them. Ignore the gray ones if still present.
Eject the iPhone and go to Settings/ General/ Usage/ Manage Storage. Let the list populate then select the Music category. In the next screen, swipe across "All Songs" from right to left and tap Delete.
Connect back to iTunes, perform a backup, then restore the iPhone and reload the backup.
Your iPhone should now have its settings, accounts, and apps back, but no music -- not even the "ghost" entries. Add the music back that you want, either via manually dragging and dropping from iTunes, or auto-syncing all or a portion of your library.
Some people reported luck with just step #3. The problem I've had with that, is any music that I want remaining on the iPhone gets corrupted, such that playback will skip and/or show the wrong artwork. By deleting all music first, then following up with a restore, that seems to clear the problem. Personally I avoid direct-to-device purchases since I've had spooky occurrences almost every time where the purchases are very difficult to remove.

I purchased an album on the PC and then sync it to my iPhone but in my music in my phone it song appeared twice. Also everytime I deleted the song and reload the song from the phone it reappears twice. How do I fix this problem?

I've had the exact same problem, but with 72 songs that I can't get off of my phone!
Also, I have the setting set so that my phone does not show music that has been purchase on iTunes but is not synced.
Any ideas?

How do I get songs from iPod(video) to iTunes(7 and using VISTA).

How do I get songs from iPod(video) to iTunes(i'm using iTunes7 and Vista).
I don't have the disc, cause i can't find it. But my computer downloaded the ipod, it just cant find the files?
i've been looking through the topics for the past hour and none of them helped. Maybe i'm stupid i dont really know, but i've restored my old computer a couple times and i found a post and it helped both times. now i can't find it anymore.
THIS IS THE ONE I'VE BEEN SEEING AND IT DOESN'T HELP ME ONE BIT:
Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

TuneJack Windows Only
iPod2PC Windows Only
iGadget Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
SharePod Windows Only
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac and Windows
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac and Windows
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.
Can someone give me a link, or tell me one that shows step by step.

Here is a way of doing it, for another take on this, search the forum for posts by Zevoneer.
Copy from iPod to PC
It is important not to allow your iPod to sync with an empty library. If it is set to synchronise automatically you will get a message saying your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to sync – it is important to press cancel as syncing with an empty library erases all music from your iPod.
You can also prevent auto sync by holding down shift & ctrl as you plug in your iPod and keeping the keys held down until the iPod appears in iTunes.
Once you are connected, you need to set your iPod to manage music manually.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61148
If you have an iPod with iTunes Store purchases on it, you can use it to copy your purchases to other authorized computers.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesWin/7.3/en/2586win.html
However this is not allowed for other music.
This MacMuse tip tells you how to copy music from your iPod using Windows Explorer, but it is a bit fiddly:

Otherwise you can use third party software to manage the transfer, there are a variety of programs out there, some free and some that will copy ratings and counts as well as the music files. Here is a selection, check them out and see what suits you.
