How do I delete all my music from my iPhone 4s (v 7.1.2)?

I've tried syncing my phone whilst selecting no songs to be synced, but after the process is supposedly finished, all my music is still on my iPhone. Also many of my songs are unplayable on my iPhone, they're titles appear faded and cannot be individually deleted by swiping the song title to the left.

Yes all my music was synced from this computer.
When I go to the music tab in my iPhone menu (I assume that's the "Music" you are referring to) and uncheck "Sync Music" then all that is present on that page is the box that includes the following options:
"Entire music library
Selected playlists,artists, albums and genres
Include music videos
Include voice memos"
Furthermore, the bar that displays the storage distribution at the bottom of the page indicates that I have 10.43 GB free whereas when I check how much free space I have available from the settings on my iPhone, it tells me that I have 4.2 GB available.

    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.
    I am running Yosemite 10.1.1

  • How can I delete all the music from my iPhone and reinstall it?

    I am trying to delete all the music from my iPhone 5 and reinstall it.  The names of some of the albums and the artists did not import correctly from my CDs.  I went back into iTunes and made corrections, synced my phone and no changes were made to the music on my phone.  And two of the albums (I only have albums, not individual songs) are duplicated on the phone, though they are not in my iTunes library. 
    I have gone into iTunes, selected the device at the top right corner, selected all the music that showed up in the window - gone to the Edit menu, selected "all" and then "delete."  The list of tracks disappears from the device list.  I then synced the phone again, and the albums are still on the phone.  What am I missing, please?  I've even shut the phone down and restarted it, synced it again, but nothing changes. 
    Help, please?

    Follow the instructions here or here; the first set of instructions may require a power source other than a computer's USB port, so you should have one of these before proceeding. Your iPod is a fourth generation model.

    Slightly less radical would be to uncheck the "Sync Music" button on the Music tab or choose new songs to sync to it

  • How can I remove all the music from my iPhone?

    I want to remove all the music from my iPhone 5 (Current iOS) and then load a completely new set of songs from my Mac (Current OS).
    How do I do that ? 
    Even when I define a specific new playlist and tell it to apply only that it still does not remove the unwanted songs.
    Thanks !

    I feel I've explained plenty what you must do but you aren't getting it.
    All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPhone in the same way it was transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
    Since you prefer the manual way, you must manually drag and drop the same 377 songs from your iTunes library to your new iPhone - in the same way the 377 songs were manually transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone.
    Or you can sync which provides more options overall. Create an iTunes playlist for the 377 songs. Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Select the iTunes playlist below that includes the 377 songs followed by a sync.  

  • How do I get all my music from my iPhone onto my new macbook pro's iTunes? My old laptop is broken.

    I recently purchased a Macbook Pro as my old Macbook broke. I want to transfer all the music from my iPhone onto the iTunes of my new Macbook Pro, however I cannot do this by moving the tracks onto an external hardrive from the old computer to the new as the old is broken. I've looked at lots of different forums etc. on the internet and I've still had no luck! Please help me !

    Get a third-party utility such as Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac. See also, Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store and How to dowload purchased music.

    When you connect the iPhone to your iTunes and then restore. Restore from your backup and it takes everything off the iPhone and puts your data on it.

  • How do I delete all the contacts from my iPhone 3?

    How do I delete all the contacts from my old iPhone 3 without having to do each one individually?

    If you've already deleted "everything else"...then plug your phone into a power source and: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings.
    Make sure you plug into a power source first...not your computer...as on an iPhone 3G, this can take some time. When finished, all data will be gone.

  • How i can delete all my messages from my iphone 4 at once

    hi how i can delete all messages from iphone 4

    You can restore a backup of the old device to a new one.  This will erase everything on the new one before restoring, so this may be an issue if you already have data on the new device. 
    To do a backup of the old device, iTunes is the safest route, in my opinion.  Many users have lost photos when performing a restore from an icloud backup.
    An icloud backup does not include everything.  For example,only photos in camera roll are backed up.  Also, music is not backed up since you get it back from itunes and (for purchased music) from the itunes store.
    To restore:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your phone.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

  • HT4527 My home computer with my iTunes library has crashed. How can I transfer all my music from my iPhone to my new computer

    My home computer which has my iTunes library on it how can I transfer all of my music from my iPhone to my new computer

    The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases.
    It has always been very basic to always maintan a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything back.

  • HT201269 How can I delete all my data from former Iphone 4 for future sale on Ebay?

    Hello!
    I've just purchased an Iphone 5 from a new carrier. Now I should like to sell my former Iphone 4 but, obviously, removing all my personal data (contacts, photographs, etc.) .  How can I transfer the ringtones that I purchased from by Iphone 4?
    How can I do it? Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Maria

    backup the device and restore it as new.
    If you already have or don't need a backup:
    Erase your device
    Erasing all content and settings will delete all the data from your device, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other data. All device settings are restored to their factory condition.
    To remove all settings and information from your device, tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. For more information about this feature, see iOS: Understanding 'Erase All Content and Settings'.
    If you are unable to erase your device, restore the device using iTunes.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  for the exact steps.
    Transferring ringtones isn't supported, as far as I know...
