"Ghost" tracks can not be deleted from iPhone

I recently went on an international trip, and loaded up my iPhone with lots of music using iTunes Match. Once I had the music on the iPhone that I wanted on there, I turned off iTunes Match on the iPhone.
Now that I'm back I'm trying to get my iPhone back to way I was using it previously, but the tracks I downloaded via iTunes Match are "ghost" tracks that I can't seem to completely purge from the iPhone. They look like this in iTunes:
They don't appear to be taking up any actual space on the iPhone, but it's bugging me that I can't figure out how to completely get rid of them. The iPhone is a 3G S, running iOS 5.0.1. I'm trying to avoid restoring it, but that may be what it takes.

I ended up having to restore my iPhone.

After "Replace with clip" the original clip can not be deleted from the project - why?

After using "replace with clip" to replace clip A in the timeline with a new clip B , clip A can not be deleted from the project anymore.
If you try to delete clip A, you get a warning, that it still has references in one or more sequences.
If you continue and delete clip A, it seems to be deleted - at first!
Unfortunately if you save and reopen the project, clip A is restored to folder "Recovered clips".
It's not possible to really delete it.
I also did not find a way to unlink clip B from A .
The only thing you can do, is to revert the change by "Restore Unrendered" in the clip context menu. But that's obviously not helping
I dont know if this is a bug or a feature. I understand, that it can be useful to undo the "replace clip" function, but why would anyone not want to be able to delete the original clip at all?
help how to fix this problem is greatly appreciated!
I use Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 (Win7 64bit)

I'm sure it has nothing to to with other sequences.
You can easily reproduce this behaviour:
1. create a new project
2. import 2 clips and name them "A" and "B"
3. put "A" in the timeline
4. ALT-drag "B" over "A" in the timeline (or right-click "A" in the timeline while selecting "B" in the project files and select "replace with clip ... from bin")
5. delete "A" from the project files
6. save and close project
7. reopen project
=> "A" reappears in "Recovered clips" and can not be deleted.

Can not download apps from iphone appstore

Hi,
I am trying for 2 weeks to download apps from my appstore app on my Iphone 4 and everytime I try, after I give my password, it begins to download and an error message appears saying the app can not be donwloaded (retry/cancel), and another pop up window appears saying that I need to connect to Itunes to download the app.
It works when I connect to Itunes, but I would like to be able to download apps directly from the appstore app on the Iphone, as before.
I tried a few tricks found on the net :
-authorize/unauthorize computer
-erase file in programdata/Itunes.../SC..
Nothing worked.
I don't want to restore, my last 2 restoration lost all my data...
Thanks,
Pebrok

Email Not Being Deleted From iPhone When Deleted On Other Devices...

This seems to be the opposite of what most people are asking...
If I delete an email on any device (iPhone, Mac Mail on desktop, web interface), it get’s moved to the proper trash folder on all those devices. The deleted message is syncing properly which means my IMAP settings are correct (i.e, if I delete the message on my Mac using Mac Mail, it will show up in the trash folder on the iPhone). However, when I “empty trash” on my desktop, the trash is not removed from my iPhone but it is removed from the server and Mac Mail.
And conversely, if I delete the email from the trash on my iPhone, it is deleted from all my other devices.
Why isn’t the email getting removed from my iPhone when deleted on other devices?

Delete the account from the device then set it up again.
Does the problem continue? If so, address it with the Exchange Administrator.

My notes have deleted from iphone 6 and mac book

My notes ie passwords , have deleted on my iphone 6
My mac book also has deleted
I am on icloud
Can i install from any where ?
Itunes last back up or sync was June
Most passwords have changed since then
and i have not used time machine back up on mac since way too long
to save this in the future from repeating
what is best way to back up info
on mac
on phone
i thought icloud covered me
Help please
regards
Gilly

Try resetting the iPhone. See if it starts working correctly.
Also, login to iCloud from a computer to see if the notes show up there. If you have iCloud enabled for notes (see settings) on you iPhone, they should show up when you select notes.

Photos can not be deleted from hard drive

this has been covered elsewhere but in my case
my photos are stored on a networked pc and the iphoto is run from a mac
deleting photos and emptying the iphoto trash only deletes
the thumbnails from the pictures/iphoto folder on the mac
but the photos are still on the pc
this makes it almost impossible to organize and get rid of stuff
any help would be great, thanks

Are you running iPhoto in it's alias mode? That is, not copying the files into the library folder but just use alias files pointing to the "source" files wherever they are located, in this case on the networked PC? If that's the case then, yes, the "source" files are not deleted when you delete photos from the library. That's one of the "downsides" of the alias system (or upside in the case of using the alias system to share between multiple users). It's not a bug but sort of a "feature" for that system.
If you want to have the control to delete the source files then start a regular library located on the PC and import all of the source files to it. Then run the library from the PC. You'll essentially achieve the same thing as the alias system as far as keeping files off your Mac, but you'll have the deletion capability. I've written some Tutorials on the alias system and you might find some info there that might help you use it more effectively.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

Can not download photos from iphone to computer or mobile me

i havent been able to download my pictures from my iphone to my computer thru itunes at all i went to the local at&t store but instead they convinced me that buying mobile me would automatically sync my photos and still havent figured that out please help so frusturated..............

Hi, Kortiz - I think your question was -"i havent been able to download my pictures from my iphone to my computer . . . please help so frusturated.............. "
Excuse the babble as this is written quickly but I too just was setting up my iPhone 3GS with to get test photos I shot today onto my MAC computer, and I was "frusturated" TOO! I have a deep knowledge of Apple products, a MobileMe acct and I own Aperture, a wonderfully powerful program (expensive also, but also have APPL stock, so I balance that with positive returns) - but spent way over an hour trying to sleuth it out - only then turned to the internet to find others were in the same position.
I am a die-hard Apple Supporter, but finding a way to transfer 30 photos was far from intuitive, (I think I could only email-upload 5 at a time) and interestingly the "manual" as well as a "Dummies" book someone leant me as a joke do not address the process properly - they focus on a process to upload TO your iPhone - as does the answer from k8 below - why is this?! The answer was that you have to have an updated version of iPhoto or Aperture and figure it out from there (not obvious either), but even Aperture took more steps than were needed for what SHOULD be a simple transfer to the folder of your choice.
There is no doubt that Apple wants us all to spend a lot of time around the iTunes money machine (again, fine with me, bought stock when it was $17+ share) but why do iPhone "DEVICES" show up only in iTunes and not as part of a transparent system functionality? Most cameras and flash memory just pop up as a folder on the Macintosh desktop allowing a SIMPLE "drag and Drop" copy from a DEVICE to a PHOTO folder (or any other folder for that matter).
WHY have the design and engineering teams made it so convoluted for some of these issues when they have thought out FAR more complex actions so elegantly?
So, here are some questions I have in return if any APPLE techs are out there - (as I have not received a non "hedgy" answer from anyone of the "genius" employees)
The iPhone does not come up on the desktop as a "DEVICE"
iPhoto therefore cannot "IMPORT" the photos.
Wouldn't this make sence based on the "way" we do other actions on the MAC (or eek -PC)?
Someone in this forum answered " iTunes doesn't transfer photos from the camera roll to your computer. Get them as you would from any digital camera. "
Q: Why not use ONE program to deal with receipt from as well as transfer to the base computer?
Q: "Get them as you would from any digital camera" I WISH!!! Why do even SONY cameras just pop up as a folder on the Macintosh desktop allowing a SIMPLE "drag and Drop" copy from device to PHOTO folder?
AND WHY SHOULD THIS STATEMENT BE TAKEN AT FACE VALUE?:
"iTunes will only sync photos from your computer to the photo album on your phone. The previous post covers that."
Q: Although we have learned since the early OSX days Apple no longer makes things to purely benefit the user without putting profits first and drawing continuing blood or cash second for the long term (just an observance) how can this issue be part of the grand plan for world domination? Isn't there some elegant behind the scenes way of allowing downloads as well as uploads from iTunes without leaving it?
Best, Tom

How can I tell whether or not a photo I delete from iPhone will also be deleted from iPhoto on my Mac?

I would like to download the new iOS, however when I go to do that, a message tells me that I cannot because I need 4.6 GB of storage in order to install it. I only currently have 864 MB of storage available on my 16 GB iPhone 5s.
The storage problem would be fairly easy to solve through deleting photos and/or videos, as the Photos & Camera app shows a current usage of 5.7 GB. I am perfectly comfortable deleting photos off my iPhone if I know that they will remain in iPhoto on my Mac. However, when I select photos to delete, the phone warns me that the photo(s) will also be deleted from Photo Stream on all my devices. I tested this with some photos I didn't care about (whether or not they got permanently deleted from all devices), and it is perplexing, because even though the iPhone warned me that the photos would be deleted on other devices, they have not deleted out of iPhoto on my Mac. I even Quit iPhoto and re-started it, but the photos are still there. Why would the iPhone claim that the photos would be deleted from other devices, but yet clearly the photos are not being deleted from my other device? This leaves me confused and unsure.
Meanwhile, if I select a bunch of photos then click Delete, the phone warns me that SOME photos will also be deleted from Photo Stream on all my devices.
I am very annoyed by the ambiguity of the word "some," and not being able to know for sure whether or not photos I delete off my iPhone will still remain in iPhoto on my Mac.
I would just like a really clear answer if possible: currently all my iPhone photos are showing up in iPhoto on my Mac. If I delete photos off of my iPhone, will they or won't they be deleted from iPhoto on my Mac?
Thanks if anybody can help.

If the Photos have been moved into the Library (Events, Photos, Faces, Places) in iPhoto on your Mac (either because you did it manually or as a result of iPhoto > Preferences > iCloud > Automatic Import being on) then nothing you do on the phone will delete them from iPhoto on your Mac.
If the Photos are ONLY in the Shared - iCloud section of iPhoto then you risk losing them as deleting them from Photo Stream will delete them from there.

HT4191 I deleted notes on my mac but did not want them deleted from iPhone but after synching they are all done. Can I get them back?

I deleted notes on my mac but did not want them deleted from iPhone but after synching they are all done. Can I get them back?

Deleting on one device does not affect another device.
You can delete the App's on the iPhone and nothing will happen to the ones on the iPad.
1. You don't need to.
2. Settings->Cellular->"Use Cellular Data For" will show the data usage for each App since the last statistics reset
3. Settings->General->Background App Refresh Will show which Apps are allowed to get data in the background
4. It restricts it to Wifi. If the App requires internet access and Data is turned off, it will have to wait until the device is connected to a wifi network.
5. Nope, You just use up battery since the BT radio will continuously look for nearby BT devices.
6. The Personal Hotspot uses your cellular internet connection from your phone or other cellular device; whether you consider that secure or not I cannot say. It also depends on what you are doing while connected to the Hotel's wifi. I would not do online banking while on vacation though.

When syncing photos getting error iPhone can not be read from or written to

I am getting an error only when I try to sync photos. Error is iPhone can not be read from or written to. This only happens when I am syncing photos, so far everything else syncs fine. I have an iPhone 3G S. I had some pictures on the iPhone that I deleted, still no sync. I am restoring the iPhone right now.

I am having the same issue. I get "iphone unable to sync, an unknown error occurred (-51)" I have restored twice and once even set up as a new iphone. Nothing so far has worked. If anyone has any suggestions, please pass them on

When I upload photos to iPhoto from my iPhone and then press delete from iPhone it does not delete them, how do I fix this?

When I upload photos to iPhoto from my iPhone and then press delete from iPhone it does not delete them, how do I fix this?

I am having the same problems as this person. I see that someone said there is no way to retrieve the pictures once it gets stuck in recovery mode.
Then further along someone said that there are data retrieval methods except they have something to do with jail breaking a phone.
My phone is already jail broken. It was kind of a gift from the company I work for- it was a fellow employees before. He jail broke it and then it was given to me. After I got it I activated the 4 and tried to back up everything. It didn't work and "Springboard" forced the phone into safety mode. So I could use it with the old dude's apps and my contacts. I made the mistake of using the phone for wedding dress shopping with a friend. I took tons of pictures.
After this I found out the messages I was seeing meant it was jail broken. At&t said to force restore the phone - iTunes wouldn't recognize it in safety mode. I'm an idiot and didn't realize what this meant for my pictures. It didn't work (error 1611) - thankfully. Now it is stuck in recovery mode (iTunes icon and USB cable picture).
Can I access that media in any way? It never suceeded restoring itself so is it still there? The phone is jail broken already so is there a method I can use?
