How can I get rid of annoying, unwanted playlists put on my phone by apple?

I hate that I can't personalize my phone. Everything with apple is so generic. Why can't products be suited to the user rather than users conforming to the product? I hate all the annoying playlists and app icons for things I don't want.
Do I have a choice? 

You do under some circumstances, however you are not addressing Apple here. We are users like you. As far as icons are concerned, native iOS icons cannot be deleted, but many people just create a junk folder to put them in and put that folder on their last home page. I understand this isn't the solution you are searching for, but it does help some people. Some playlists can be removed, however some cannot.
As far as letting Apple know how you feel about this, they do not come to the forum. Use the feedback page here: www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link. This is where they get user feedback.

  • How can I get rid of annoying "Unnamed USB device" messege??

    Whenever I boot into OS9.2.2 on my other drive in my dual 500Mhz. G4 I get a usb upgrade messege window:
    "Software needed for the USB device "Unnamed device" is not available. Would you like to look for the software on the internet?"
    This appears everytime I boot, restart, startup on this drive. I've looked for this "unnamed device" in various places like the extensions folder to delete it but I can't find it anywhere. All of my usb devices are functioning and have been named including my MIDI controller. It would be great if I could get rid of this annoying reminder.......how can I get rid of this???
    500mhz. Dual processor (revision B) dual boot   Mac OS 9.2.x   1.25gig RAM

    I think it's my midi controller. I unplugged iton startup and I didn't get the messege. I've got the right driver installed for it and it's working fine so I don't know why I keep getting the messege. It's annoying to have to answer the question everytime time I startup.

  • HT1379 How can I get rid of an unwanted message?

    When my system starts up I see a message that says, "The disc you inserted was not readable by this computer." I had an external DVD drive but detached it and it still gives me the message. The machine (a new iMac 27") doesn't even have a disc drive! How can I get rid of it?

    Does it happen if you boot with the Shift key held down to get into Safe Mode (if your keyboard is wireless, hold the Shift key after you hear the boot chimes and not before)? Additionally, try creating a new user account in the Users & Groups system preferences and then reboot and log into that account. When you do so, does the same message show up?

  • How can I get rid of the Unwanted ads that are appearing in my e-mail display

    What appears to be the first e-mail is actually an ad. If I click on it it takes me to a website that is trying to sell me something. I can't get rid of it.

    I'm sorry, can you please respond with more information? I don't really understand your problem. Please try using another browser (Safari, Chrome) to do whatever you were doing. If the problem continues, then this refers to the website that you are connecting to.

  • How can I get rid of annoying sounds?

    I just received my first iPhone.  I like it, however, there are two annoying sounds/noises that I cannot seem to turn-off.  The first sound is what appears to be a "baby laughter" every time I send out a text.  I have all sounds turned off  on the texting and it is still there.  The second sound is every time I want to put the iPhone in a sleep mode with the button on the top of device, I get what appears to sound like a "camera click."  I would appreciate some input in getting rid of these two sounds.

    There is not an option to disable the alert sound when a text is successfully sent.
    To disable the click sound, go to Settings > Sounds > Lock Sounds > Off.

  • Help!! how can I get rid of all this icloud music on my phone??

    I just upgraded to ios 7, and now there is a huge amount of my son's music on my phone and I cannot find any way to get rid of it. Oh, how I loathe apple file management!
    This music must be from itunes on his computer--we use a common account. I have manage music manually checked, I never sync to itunes. All of the unwanted music has little clouds with arrows on it. It does not appear in my music library, and in usual apple idiotic fashion, there is no way to delete from the phone itself
    I have deleted my icloud account, which ios 7 so graciously reactivated, but the unwanted songs still appear in my playlist.
    Please help--this destroys my music library
    TIA

    Go in Settings. Then in "Itunes & AppStore". Deselect "Music" and "Videos" on top. This would solve the problem with the Music and Videofiles in the cloud, that you seem to see.
    The music isn't actually on your iphone. It just shows you what is in the cloud.

  • How can I get rid of iOS 7 after downloading on my phone?

    I absolutely hate iOS 7. It drains my battery like crazy. I understand you can get it back if you've backed up your old version, but I'm so not tech savvy. Can anyone break it down for me? Thanks!

    Most of us wish for the same thing. So sad is that it may not happen. If you find a way please share with us all.

  • ITunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

    iTunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

    Hi, if this is in regards to your library simply open up itunes and do the following steps:
    Click File
    Scroll down to "show duplicates"
    A list will then appear of your duplicate song titles.
    Be sure to CAREFULLY review each song to make sure it is a duplicate ( as I have some music that is the same song but live, acoustic etc...)
    Proceed to manually delete each song from the list and leave alone any song that you wish to keep.
    For playlists, you will need to hit the name tab so that your doubles line up, from there you will have to manually delete them, it helps to hold the Control button to select multiple songs as a time ( they will be highlighted) then when your done selecting the songs you wish to delete, right click your mouse and select the delete option from the window tab.
    Best of luck, please rate my response for help!

  • When I open Safari, very annoying music plays. How can I get rid of it?

    when I open Safari, very annoying music plays. How can I get rid of it?

    Click History from the Safari menu bar then from the drop down menu click: Clear History
    Quit then relaunch Safari.
    If that didn't help, go to ~/Library/Safari
    Move the LastSession.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
    See if that helped.

  • I synched my iphone4 on my wife's imac to down load pics but got 700 unwanted contacts.  How can I get rid of them without doing one at a time?

    I synched my iphone4 with my wife's imac with the hope of  uploading pictures from my phone.  Instead I now have 700 plus contacts on my phone I do not want. How can I get rid of them except one ata time?

    iTunes does not handle the import of photos/videos from the iPhone's Camera Roll.
    If this is not the computer you sync your iPhone with, you should have been provided a warning message that your iPhone is associated with an iTunes library on another computer and when trying to transfer any iTunes content from a different computer, a warning message is provided indicating that all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first.
    When connecting an iPhone to iTunes on another computer, none of the options under the various tabs for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes are selected automatically. This means you had to select Sync Contacts under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your wife's computer.
    Assuming you are syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer, connect your iPhone to Tunes on your computer and without syncing, under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences below the Advanced section, select Contacts for replace info on this iPhone followed by a sync.
    For importing photos/videos from the Camera Roll which can be done with a computer that is not used for syncing the iPhone since syncing with iTunes is not involved.

    Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

    If the History sidebar is closed when you close Firefox and doesn't stay closed on the next start then that can be problem with the file localstore.rdf in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted.<br />

  • How can I get rid of that annoying white circle in that black square

    Since Oct. 7 last I have a 5S. Before had a 4S. About 4S no complaints, so the 5S maybe faster, better cam and so on but what I really hate it that stupid white circle in a black square you can move around on your screen. However when you want to open, for instance <messages> and that white circle is very near, messages will not be opened but a uselless black sub scrn with favorites, Siri, Device, Home. How can I get rid of that or delete or move it, it will no longer be visible on my scrn.

    Yes, you are right. I must have done it myself during the first days while exploring the many options after the initial set up was done. On the 4S, I still have, and also running under OS7, it was disabled that's why I thought it was default in the 5S; wrong thinking. Thanks a lot for your great help.
