Help- ipod is full and I can't delete songs/playlist

I need help please. My Ipod is currently full and I can't seem to delete songs/playlist to make more room. My I pod is set to maually update. I can connect my Ipod and higlight the songs/playlist I want to delete and right click and delete. But the Ipod still says I have the same amount of songs on it and the same amout of used MB. The songs/playlist are no longer on my Ipod (I can't play them) but I just don't seem to be making room to add more onto my Ipod. I just seem to be deleting more and more from my Ipod without being able to add more on. Help please???
Ipod   Windows XP  

From what I understand you are deleting the playlists. THe playlist only organizes the songs you have in your library. This will not delete the song from the library. In order to get more space, just click on the small box next to the name of the song (The box will not have a check now). THis way you will have the song on your library but will not be loaded on you ipod.

  • Have recently had update and now can't delete songs or podcasts?

    I recently downloaded the latest update from iTunes and since then have not been able to delete unwanted tracks or podcasts.  I don't think I've changed any settings.

    I have the same problem with the update (via Software Update). I am running OS 10.6.8 on a Mac Air and when I updated iTunes to 10.4, the Delete function in the menu is greyed out and I can't delete podcasts or music using the menus. I can, however, drag the podcast to the trash. Does anyone have the same problem or better yet a solution?

  • I just bought the a iPod 5th generation and I can't delete my email it keeps down loading back on my inbox over and over it's very annoying what can I do to fix the problem I've reset my mail and it still keeps down loading over and over what can I do?

    I just bought the 5th generation iPod my email keeps downloading over and over when I go to delete my email what can I do I've even reset my email and it still keeps doing the same thing it's annoying what else can I do to fix the problem?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -Delete the account from the iPod and reenter the settings. I do not know what you mean by "reset my email ".
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             

  • I used my friends itunes account to get some of her music, but now I want to delete some from my phome, but I don't know how, and I can only delete songs from itunes but all the songs are on her's so I can't. What do I do?!!!?

    Please help me with this!?

    That is what you get when you pirate music.
    You are probably going to have reset your iPhone to factory default which wipe out evrything. After that restore from the backup on your computer.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • TS4009 My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff.  Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not?  I have done all I can but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud.

    My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff.  Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not?  I'm just not sure what I really should back up each night and what doesn't really matter.  I know my photo's should back up, but other than that, I'm not really sure.
    I have taken some pics off and videos and appt, but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud.  I'm starting to wonder if its a glitch with my personal phone.  Can anyone help me?
    Thanks!

    Only you can decide what's critical to back up.  One option is to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), then either delete them from your phone or exclude the camera roll from your backup in settings.
    You might try going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll), then look at the size of your next backup.  If it doesn't go down significantly, something else is wrong.

  • I got a message saying that my startup disk is full and I need to delete files.   What files and where can I find them?

    To see how much disk space is available ...
    Click your Apple menu  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
    Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

  • My iPod Nano is full and I need to delete some songs.  How do I do this?

    How do I delete songs from the iPod Nano?  It is full and I want to delete some songs.  The Apple help page did not help.

    Attach iPod to computer > launch iTunes. Be sure that "Manually manage music" is selected in Options. This is so that, once the files are deleted, the iPod will not be automatically synced and present you with the same problem:
    Look at the list of songs in your Ipod (not in the iTunes listing!):
    Select the songs to delete by highlighting (single click) then press "Delete" or Control + click [or right click] and select "Delete" from the contextual menu.

  • IPad2 memory full of photos, can't delete. Need help, please!

    My iPad2 memory is full of photos because of the mistakes I made when downloading pictures from my camera. Pictures have been downloaded multiple times, plus video from my camera and I videoed a recent family reunion for my dad, who is no longer able to travel and see his family. When I tried to sync my iPad through my pc on iTunes it had errors and did not update. Then I started getting messages on my iPad that my memory was full and I needed to delete photos and videos.
    I was able to go to photos, select the arrow on the top right, which gave me the delete option and could select pictures which were downloaded on my iPad and delete them. After deleting about 40 pictures, the delete button no longer worked and I can't get it to work again. I have turned off the iPad, selected one pic at a time, several pics, everything I can think of, but no luck. Does anyone have any advice for me? I would be very grateful for your input.

    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

    I have a iPhone 4 and I can't delete the pictures in the photo albums. Can anyone help??

    There are two ways to get rid of them on your iPhone:
    1.  Get rid of them on your computer, and then sync your iPhone to your computer using iTunes.
    2.  Plug your iPhone into your computer, open iTunes, click on your iPhone's row on the left, go to the "Photos" tab on the top right, and uncheck "Sync Photos", then click "Apply" in the lower right.

    My Nano is full and I can no longer sync more music. How do I delete duplicate songs on the Nano to make room for syncing more songs?

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.
