How can I delete iTunes purchased music

Music I purchsed from iTunes is synced to my iPad. However, there are a couple of tracks I do not want but can find no way to delete them. I have deleted them from my iMac and Mac Mini but they still apear on the iPad. It's no big deal but I like to have control over devices I own and this is an irritation. How can I permanently delete purchased music from the iPad?

OK so I'm answering my own question. After deleting purchased music from my iMac and Mac Mini, it still appeared on my iPad. However, on opening Music in the iPad, I found that by holding my finger against the track I wanted to delete and swiping to the right, a red DELETE tag appeared at the right-hand end of the track title line. Tapping this tab deleted the title and it has not returned. I repeated this for all of the purchased titles I wanted to remove and it has worked.
I have not found any reference to this facility elsewhere but, believe me, it works.

  • How can I ensure itunes purchases (music, apps) are paid using credits which show on the account instead of billed to my credit card?  Info indicates credit is used first but I just bought a song and it did not seem to be deducted from my credits.

  • How can I use iTunes purchased music on non PC devices?

    I have an audio component that is a music server that is connected to my home audio system. The hard drive based music server has a front disc tray that you can use to rip CDs to its hard drive, but you can also copy music to it from a PC, as the server is connected to my home network.
    How can I get music that I purchase in iTunes onto this server? The server only accepts MP3s, and is not compatable with ACC. And its a music server, not a true PC, so dont see anyway how I could "authorize" it.
    Is there any way to get the ACC into MP3 format? Or if I burn the purchased music to CD, and then rip the CD back to a PC or the server itself, does it come back out as ACC again or MP3?
    If anybody can be of any help, it would be much appreciated. Thanks

    Burn the tracks out to an audio CD (make sure it's set to burn an audio CD, not a data CD, in the iTunes preferences). That CD can then be reimported as MP3.

    Hi. I have shared an Apple ID with my children for some time.  As they are getting older they do not wnat me seeing all their messages, photos etc so want their own accounts.  How can they access their purchased music and apps on the new account please?

    Yes.
    On their iOS devices, under Settings>iTunes & App Store, they should use your Apple ID. When they log into iCloud, iMessage and Facetime, they should use their personal Apple IDs.

  • How can i delete the sync musics in my ipod?

    how can i delete the sync musics in my ipod..well in fact i already changed my settings..i already use manual choosing of musics and videos..how can i delete the sync music?? beacause i really dont like the sync musics, pls help me...

    go to settings > general > usage > music app under the storage section > slide across the bar that says 'photo library' and a red delete button will appear
    you can also plug the device into your computer with itunes, go to the photos tab at the top center and uncheck where it says 'sync photos.' then press 'apply' in the bottom right corner. this will erase the photos that were synced to your phone from the computer

  • How can i delete me purchase history

    how can i delete me purchase history

    You can't delete any item form your purchase history, all you can do is hide items via your computer's iTunes (if using a Mac with Yosemite or Mavericks on it then ibooks are hidden via its iBooks app) so that they don't show in the cloud for redownloading : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
    For apps, on the current version of iTunes there is a bug which means that the 'x' on the Purchased link doesn't show for hiding them - clicking on their top left corner (where the 'x' should be) should still hide them.

    Really? I need to check that out!
    You should certainly be able to add content by reference to itunes from such a disk (even before the update) - so long as itunes knows the location of the file (set Preferences not to copy to local library when adding the media) it will stream it to AppleTV if the disk is available.
    I hope you're right, but I'd be surprised if current Extremes can be upgarded to provide a full Home Sharing service - marvellous if they can but I'd be surprised as i've long said we need an Apple media server either based on TC or AE to do this kind of thing.

  • How can I delete the purchased books list in iBook?

    How can I delete the purchased books list in iBook?

    Hi,
    Yes you are miss understanding the problem.  To clarify. The problem is not how to delete the book from a device, it is how to delete the puchase (i.e. the history).  You can hide it in your account settings, but you cannot delete it. So if you buy something on a shared account (i.e. a family account like mine), your children can see and download any of your puchases - forever.
    Some will say it's for your protection.  A bit like the shop looking after your receipt, so that you cannot lose it.
    However, I thought that as part of the data protection act, you could ask for this information kept about you to be deleted, but this doesn't apply to Apple purchases.  Believe me I've tried.

  • How can I delete all my music from my iPhone 4s

    How can I delete all the music from my iPhone?

    I finally went to Apple Care tech support (the best!) for help.
    Plug your phone into the computer.
    I-Tunes should open.
    Toward the top left of the page, click on the small I-Phone icon.
    Select Music in the sidebar.
    In the right window, your music should appear.
    De-select what you don't want, then click Sync.
    Voila.

  • How can i transfer non purchased music from my iPod classic to iTunes?

    Recently, my laptop died and geek squad was unable to extract files from hard drive. How do I transfer non purchased music (burned cd's) from my ipod classic to itunes on my new laptop? Apple customer support suggested I engage support communities to find out about 3rd party software (not apple) that can accomplish this. Does anyone know of where I can find such software? Please and thank you

    Back when I had to do something like that, I used Copytrans, http://www.copytrans.net/. You might see if they are what you want.
    At worst, you could open the ipod classic in disk mode, locate the music files, copy them to your hard disk (they won't have good names), and just add them to your library. You'll probably lose play counts and *s with that approach, but it should work.

  • How can i get my purchased music that was under another user name

    how can i get my purcchased music that I purchased under anorhe user name.  I just lost all of my music!

    You will need to sign into the iTunes Store using that other Apple ID and password. Then you can re-download the content via the Purchased link.

  • How can I delete a purchase (Mavericks) that has not downloaded from my account?

    How can I delete a purchse that has not yet downloaded (Mavericks) from my account? I contacted App Store support and my responder claims to have deleted Mavericks from myaccoount. He didn't; it is still there, under the purchases tab-in the cloud. Thank you.

    Hi Dah-veed
    Thanks for your response. But it doesn't make sense. Mavericks wouldn't download, and although I decided that I wasn't ready for it yet (incompatibility issues), I would like to be ale to get it (OSX) in the future, and if it shows as 'purchased', I won't be able to 'start over' fresh.
