How do i delete albums, playlists or tracks?

how do i delete albums, playlists or tracks

To delete an item from your library:
Click the item to select it, and press the Delete key.
Click Remove.
Do one of the following:
To remove the item only from your iTunes library, click Keep File.
To delete the item from your computer, click Move to Trash. The item is deleted the next time you empty the Trash.
Removing an item from a playlist doesn’t remove it from your iTunes library or your computer. Deleting a playlist or folder doesn’t remove the songs from your library or hard disk.
When you delete a folder, all the playlists and folders inside that folder are also deleted.
You might not be able to remove songs from a Smart Playlist that has “Live updating” turned on, because the playlist is continually updated.

    How can I get Ipod nano to display Albums when connected to itunes?
    How can I delete Albums from my ipod.....either using the device stand alone or when connected via itunes?
    Both the above actions are easy using other devices and software ( Samsung MP3 and Windows Media Player...for example)
    But after a year of owning my Nano I still cannot figure out how to do either of these tasks.

    How do I get it (itunes) to display albums and then delete them?
    Finding them amongst the many thousands of track listing and then deleting them one track at a time is extremly tedious........
    Surely there must be a way I can get itunes to display albums and the pick the one I want to delete?

    If these albums were copied to the iPad by syncing with a computer running iTunes then you need to do another sync. But before clicking on sync deselect the unwanted albums. When you click on Apply or sync the albums will be deleted from the iPad but they will remain on your computer,

  • How do i delete video playlists?

    I was looking through my iPod one day and I noticed that I had a "John Mayer" playlist in my "video playlist" section, even though they were songs, not videos. I have no idea how it got there in the first place, but I have been looking around iTunes to see if I can find the playlist and I can't. How do I delete this playlist?

  • How do I delete albums on my phone? They do not appear on my iphoto file

    I have photo albums on my phone that are not on the iphoto files.  I can delete from my camera roll but not from the albums.  How do I delete albums on my iphone?

    If the albums were originally placed on the phone by syncing from a computer via iTunes, you remove the albums by syncing again with iTunes but this time removing the check mark beside "Sync Photos From:" (if you want to remove all previously synced photos) or changing the selection of albums/folders to be synced. Each time you sync using iTunes it sets the non-Camera Roll photos to match the current settings on the photos page of iTunes. More info: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

    How do you delete albums from an I-phone 4,only able to delete from camera roll,but not the other albums

    How did the photos get onto the phone ? Only photos taken with the phone or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the device. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from on your computer and then re-syncing.

    How do I delete old playlists from my ipod nano?

    Hi Willowmet1,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You can use these steps to delete a playlist from an iPod nano (7th generation):
    Delete a playlist: 
    1  On the Home screen, tap Music > Playlists. 
    2  Flick down, then tap Edit. 
    3  Tap next to the playlist you want to delete, then tap Delete when it appears next to the playlist.  If you tapped the wrong playlist, tap the one you want to remove.
    4  Tap Delete, or tap Cancel if you change your mind. 
    5  When you finish, flick up, then tap Done (or swipe right to return to the Home screen if you cancel).
    You can find more information and steps for other iPod nano models in the user guides found here:

  • How can I delete albums from itunes match

    Can you tell me or do you know how I can delete albums from iTunes match please

    I've got a similar problem.
    I know the way how to delete but it didn't work.
    When I delete a song with setting the "delete this song from iCloud" option, it seems to be deleted but after syncing it still exist!
    For example:
    Before deleting I've got 761 songs in Match
    I delete 10 songs with "Also delete this song from iCloud", empty the trash can and start match sync
    After 2 Minutes iTunes Match told me, there are 761 songs available - nothing will be deleted at iTunes Match

  • How do I delete albums from my iPad in ios7

    How do I delete albums from my iPad in ios7 ...

    The instruction should read "Settings > General > Usage > Music > All Music > Swipe right to left > Delete".
    But doing so may have the undesirable effect of screwing up artwork and/or playback stability (maybe this was fixed, but this method cause a lot of grief in iOS 6 and early in iOS 7).
    But try this -- connect the iPad to iTunes, and if you're not in manual sync mode then enable that and apply the change.  Then while connected to iTunes, navigate the contents of the iPad through iTunes and see if you can delete the albums that way.

  • How Can I Delete Albums From iTunes Without It Deleting Them From My iPod

    Please help!!!!
    How Can I Delete Albums From iTunes Without It Deleting Them From My iPod classic 160GB?

    Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
    I assume you've already consisdered manually managing your iPod's contents and rejected that idea.
    I wouldn't recommend it as a solution, but if you delete the files for the albums leaving the entries in the iTunes library you can carry on syncing normally. iTunes will complain that it can't sync the missing files but it won't remove the copies from your iPod. Once you're happy with how things work you can can choose to suppress the error message.
    While handy as a temporary workaround if space is an issue then it's probably time to look at moving your whole library to a bigger drive.
