How come I can't swipe some of the purchased songs I have to delete them? I could on some but others I can't. Help?

I used to just be able to swipe left on a song I have in my Music library and delete a song if I didn't want it straight from my iPhone. How come I can't do that to some of the purchased songs I have?

Hello there, dleaupepe28.
You are correct on the fact that you can delete a song directly from your iPhone by swiping from right to left over the song:
Remove a song that’s been downloaded. Swipe left, then tap Delete.
iPhone User Guide - Music
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph6e2dfb83
If the song was purchased from the iTunes Store and has a cloud icon to the right of it, it is being streamed from iTunes in the Cloud and not actually on your device.  You can hide the song by accessing the iTunes Store on the computer:
To hide your purchases
Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
Go to the iTunes Store.
Click Purchased from the Quick Links section on the right side of the iTunes Store.
Choose a content type by clicking on Music, TV Shows, Apps, or Books from top.
Hover your cursor over the item you want to hide.
You will see an "X" either to the right or left top corner of the item.
Click the "X" to hide that item. A confirmation dialog will appear once you click the "X."

You will need to quit and relaunch the Music app on your iPhone after hiding the purchase on your computer before seeing the changes. 
Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

  • How come I can't use the back gesture in certain apps with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion OS?

    How come I can't use the back gesture with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion? I figured out that in Safari i have to use a 1 finger swipe to go back a page instead of 2 fingers like i used to do in Snow Leopard. But apps like iTunes and iPhoto and i can't do that. Any ideas? is there a setting im missing to make this work? It works in Safari but not any other applications, so im assuming theres no setting for this. Just want to know if this is just a bug that will be fixed in the next update or if its something I can fix now. Any help would be appreciated because its kind of annoying. Other than this minor issue I love Lion. Full screen apps are unbelievable.

  • HT2404 I just clicked on Software Updates; BUT nothing shows what's happening? How come I can't see the updates & time it will take?

    Help!  I just got this Lion, and SO many changes & not necessarily for the better !
    I went to the Apple icon, but  "Software Updates" did not show ... though I had deferred installing some updates ...
    Finally it showed up, I clicked on it, saw the updates to do - BUT when I clicked on install - the "box" that usually shows the updates & how long to install - just disappeared! I can't get to it to see what's next. (I have to leave soon & will turn off the mac)
    What's happening? How come I can't see the updates as they are installed, & how much time it will take?
    How do I know IF they have been installed?  Is this the "new Normal" for Lion? Or is there a glitch in my mac somewhere?
    How about updates you download from Apple (not bought) - they go to Downloads on the Sideboard, but are they installed automatically, & put where they belong too? Is there no more restart, etc.?
    - I just went to Systems Preference, to see the "Installed Software" - shows they were ... but don't I have to restart anymore? Are all updates now automatically placed where they belong?
    Thanks to any who can help
    PS One other question - just checked my "profile" & it has my email addy that's 4 years old... how do I change That?

  • HT4972 how come i can not use iOS 6 on my ipad 3 to get the youtube or pinerest app? it keeps giving me a message to use iOS5

    How come i can not use iOS 6 on my ipad 3 to get the youtube and pinerest app? i keep getting a message to update to iOS5 if i must use iOS5 how do i update to that one because it just took me 4 hours to figure out how to update to iOS6

    We have read that any apps that use the google map app (removed by ios6) will not work.  We have lost a great camping app for this reason, and have heard that some weather apps are not working either.  The company line we've been given is it's up to the app developer to rewrite their apps.  ***** doesn't it.

  • How come you can not use more than 126GB of a 1.5TB diskdrive with LabVIEW Real Time?

    How come you can not use more than 126GB of a 1.5TB diskdrive with LabVIEW Real Time?
    This is only 8.3% of the available disk drive space!
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/E7E2F5657B6​026358625750B007201A6?OpenDocument
    National Instrument's solution is either reformat you drive to less than 126GB or replace the drive with one less than that size.
    Please NI, tell me you are going to fix your LabVIEW Real Time soon, and that we won't have to wait for LabVIEW RT 9.2.1 in 2011 for this one to be fixed.
    http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/90​/Hard_drive_capacity_over_time.svg
    Drives as large as 126GB or more have been around since about mid 2002.  That's about 7 Years now and LabVIEW Real Time STILL can't use drives larger that 126GB!  Please NI.  Do something.
    We deserve fixes to the old versions of LabVIEW RT.  How about updates to LabVIEW RT.  Such as 7.0.2, 7.1.2, 7.6.2, 8.0.2, 8.2.2, 8.6.2.
    We don't need new features or versions of LabVIEW RT such as 9.0 until we have some of bugs fixed in the existing versions.

    NI is not making the Real Time OS in house. I do not remember which firm that is making it. Anyway you are allowed to use a hard drive that has been partitioned. And 126GB is some space is it not? I remember Bill Gates declared one time that 640Kb ram should be more than enough for any PC application also in the future 
    Coq Rouge (formerly t06afre),
    The RealTime OS is an NI Product that is purchased from NI.
    NI may or may not outsource design, developement, or manufacturing of the products that it sells under its own Company name.
    For this reason I would be concerned if I were a PXI Embedded Controller designer/developer in the United States. 
    Yes, 126GB is some space.  I see that there are now 2TB drives available.  126GB would be 6.3% of a new 2TB drive.  Should we all be happy with being able to use 6.3% of the available drive space.  Moore's Law seams to be alive and well.  Drives larger than 126GB have been readily available for 5 or 6 Years.  This should not be a surprise to NI.  Why don't they do something about it.
    Thanks for the trivia on Bill Gates.  I must have missed that one since I don't try to keep up with Microsoft.  I believe that he is a wonderful person and he and his family are doing wonders for the world in their "retirement".   The world needs more like him.
    What I do remember is Steve Jobs telling us that we would never need more that 128MB and that we would never to need to do anymore software development because everything was already in the "ToolBox".

  • How come you can't put a Tab in a Cluster?

    Hello,
    How come you can't put a Tab Control in a Cluster?
    It looks like users have been asking this question
    for years, and all the way back to LV versions 6.1.
    Someday, please, pretty please, NI.
    Please. Maybe by version 9.5 of LV?

    Kevin:  Sorry Ben, but think how I must feel.
    Ben wrote:  I understand the cosmetic and GUI interaction part of it OK.  Its the "how would it code?" part that send my head spinning.
    Kevin:  We don't need to worry about that.  We'll let the NI LABview guiruis worry about that.  They know how to program for TABs and they know how to program for Clustors.  Now they just need to put them together.
    Ben wrote:  Would the tab control be available via bundle by name and unbundle?
    Kevin:  Yes.  It would simply return the value indicating which page is selected.
    Ben wrote:  If the cluster was an indicator and the tab value was "page1" would the user be able to select page2?
    Kevin:  Of course, the block diagram would simply pass the enum indicating which page to display.
    Ben wrote:  On the block diagram, would there be a relationship between the tab and the elements on each tab?
    Kevin:  None.  Or no more so than the relationship of any element on a panel or front panel.
    Ben wrote:  On the FP the tab control has a "pages" property and from those we can get an array of refs to the controls on the pages. Would we still be able to that within a cluster.
    Kevin:  Yes.  No Differrence.
    Ben wrote:  Aside from the above Q's I would guess that the tab in a cluster would only allow greater abuse of clusters i.e. "Super Clusters".
    Kevin:  It is not my intent to abuse any Super Cluster in any way shape or from.  In contrast, would help to spread out some clutter from ones front pannels and move the clutter into tabs within a cluster.  The beauty of it would be that it would come automatic, and handled by labview.
    Ben wrote:  There was also until recently, limitations on the size of the type descriptors. Very complex FP's and large clusters would be hit by the problem that the type descriptor need more than the 16 bit allocated.
    Kevin:  I would never suggest even coming close to putting more that 65535 items in a cluser in any fashion.
    Ben wrote:  I do not pretend to know why NI did or did not allow this. In the end I can only share my guess and hope somone who does know will post.
    Kevin:  Yes, somebody from NI might know something about why we can't put a Tab in a Cluster.

    Maybe it was an oversite.  Maybe we can have Tabs in Clusters in 64bit Lab View 9.

  • How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud

    How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud and will only be available on this computer"?
    You must surely be able to add and subtract songs on specific playlist?

    I fixed this issue (with help from tech support) and it involved several things.
    After adding a song to iTunes, right-click on the song in iTunes and select "Update iTunes Match."
    OR go to the iTunes menu-->Store-->Update iTunes Match.
    Maybe that's the reason, it just hadn't updated to the cloud.
    OR maybe it's not a high-enough bitrate file.   This happens to me because most of my tunes are home-recorded.
    Sometimes converting to .mp3 or Create AAC version might work. (You do this with a right-click in iTunes, and then you will want to remove the original file from iTunes.)
    There is an iTunes Preferences setting, under General Preferences called Import Settings.  Try setting it to AAC Encoder and iTunes Plus.   That (I think) causes imports to be slightly better quality.
    Good luck!  The tech support person at Apple is requesting that a knowlege-base article be written about this.

  • How come I can't update my iPad 1 to the new iOS 6 it says my iOS version 5.1.1 is the latest version?

    How come I can't update my iPad 1 to the new iOS 6 it says my iOS version 5.1.1 is the latest version?

    The iPad 1, coming up on three years since it was introduced, has been given two major and a number of minor upgrades to iOS, more than many tablet manufactures provide. The iPad 1's hardware just can't effectively support many of the features in iOS 6. So I don't think that it's particularly unfair for Apple to no longer provide updates. And yes, I do own and manage a number of iPad 1s.

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
    To move mdia to the new computer see:
