How do I delete music from my device on iOS 7?

In iOS 6 all you had to do was swipe to the left and the delete button would show but in iOS 7 that doesn't seem to work! I've even tried to long press like on an android phone and nothing either! I sure hope Apple didn't disable this option because it will be a major inconvenience for me to have to connect to iTunes everytime I want to delete music from my device or delete everything and redownload!

Emg75 i didnt use to be able to use my phone i didnt know u could swipe across and delete, iv been connecting to itunes when wanting to remove anything but itunes was deleted from my laptop and i reinstalled it but it looks like a new version n this delete option isnt there. just tried on my phone and it works lol weird lol good luck

How can I delete music from my iPad Air other than by one song at a time? I am still on iOS 7.

How can I delete music from my iPad Air other than one song at a time? I would like to delete a few albums. I am still on iOS 7.

You can either sync the iPhone and iPad to a computer that has your music on it and make sure the U2 album is not on the computer. Or you can delete all of the music from both devices (settings > general > usage > manage storage > music. Then redownload your music from your purchase history on the iTunes store
Also the U2 album is attached to your apple id. To remove it, you will need to go here ---> https://itunes.com/soi-remove

How do I delete music from my iPad and the cloud?

How do I delete music from my iPad without it being downloaded again from cloud? Please help.

Hi roy1939,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The variable that has changed with iOS 7 is the "Show All Music" option in Settings > iTunes & App Store. This feature displays your iTunes in the Cloud purchases on your device (while they are not locally stored). You can identify these by the "cloud download" icon on the right.
To hide your iTunes in the Cloud purchases, disable this feature in Settings > iTunes & App Store.

Remove a song from iPad. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPad, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
Cheers,

How do I delete music from my ipad? I have deleted the music from my itunes but when I sync it wont come off my ipad.

If you don't want to delete too much then you can do it directly on the iPad. You can either swipe across track names and you should get a delete button, or on the album or artist selection screens you can press and hold an album or artist and you should then get an 'x' on its top corner which will delete the album or artist if you tap it.
If you want to delete more then it may be quicker to connect the iPad to your computer, and on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes under the iPad device you should see a Music section (if you don't see the content types listed then click the arrow next to the iPad's name) - select that and on the right-hand side you should see a list of the music that is on your iPad, and you can then select and delete them.

How do I delete music from my iPod Nano?

Remove those songs from the list of items in iTunes set to sync with the iPod, and then sync it. If you're syncing it manually, select the iPod in the iTunes sidebar, find that music, and press Delete.
There is no way to do that from the device itself.

How do I delete music from my ipad when I synced with ITunes

How do I delete music from my iPad 2?

If manually managing music on your iPad then you can delete music directly in the Music app on your iPad by swiping/dragging across them from right-to-left (or via Settings > General > Usage > Manage Storage > Music), or by connecting the iPad to your computer's iTunes and using the Music section under the 'on my device' heading to select and delete them :
If not manually managing your music then you can delete the music directly in the Music app by swiping/dragging (or via Settings), but when you next sync to your computer's iTunes it's likely to get synced back - so you may want to just reconnect your iPad to your computer's iTunes, change your music sync options to deselect what you no longer want on your iPad, and sync that new selection

Are you wanting to delete it all or just certain tracks and content?
If it's the latter...
How you delete content from your iPod depends on how it is set up to receive content from your iTunes library whether that be via automatic syncing or manual management.
For automatic syncing, you must reconfigure your settings so that the album/tracks/content you wish to remove is no longer configured to sync to your iPod. For example, if the Sync only checked songs and videos option is enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab, make sure all the tracks for this album do NOT have a tick mark next to them in your iPod. Then resync your iPod with iTunes.
If that isn't the case, you'll want to look at the iPod's Music configuration tab. You can access this tab by selecting your iPod under Devices. This should bring you to theSummary tab over to the right. Look for the Music tab along the top and select it. Here you can configure how and what music syncs to your device. If you make any changes to this tab, be sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to sync the updated changes to your device.
Otherwise, if you manually manage your iPod's contents, you must manually remove content from it. You can do this by plugging your iPod in and clicking the small black triangle next to your iPod from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will open up a submenu of content that is indented underneath the name of your device, so go ahead and click on Music (or whatever content you are wanting to remove). Locate the track or tracks/content you wish to delete. Highlight them and hit the Delete key or choose Edit -> Delete.

How do I delete music from my play

Ok, this is very basic, but so am I.
I have Napster to Go, which I think is just great, but my player is filled. Every time I hook up to my computer, it starts to synchronize, filling my player with music I don't want on my player. So, if I delete something when I am not connected to the computer, it shows back up when it synchronizes. I would prefer to directly use the Napster software to add and delete music (if possible). I also have loaded WMP and the Creative Media software. Can someone suggest how I can:
) delete music from my player;
2) prevent an automatic synchronization.
Thanks.

You can delete songs on your player either from the player itself of via the computer. The latter has already been mentioned. I'll like to add that you can actually delete songs using the Zen media explorer as well. simply choose: "organise music in device" once you are there, you can just click on the song and delete. Otherwise,to delete a specific song, you can type the name of the song on the search bar at the top right. Once the song is located, you can click on it and press the delete button on your keyboard or right-click and choose the "delete" option.
Deleting songs from the player (It depends on whether your player support this; In this case, i'm referring to players like the zen micro and zen 20GB):
: Go to music library
2: Select "all tracks"
3: Then scroll to the song you want to delete
4: Press the bottom right of the touchpad and choose "remove"
