How you delete content from your iPod depends how you have it set to update:
If you are updating automatically (syncing) all songs and playlists then delete the files from the iTunes library. In the iTunes Library highlight the file and press the delete key on your keyboard. If you're updating the iPod from a selected playlist delete the song from the playlist and it will remain in the library. Next time you connect they will deleted automatically from your iPod.
If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and when it shows in the iTunes source list click on the chevron (the little triangle) to the left of the iPod icon This will display the various icons for the iPod itself, Music, Movies, TV Shows and Playlists. Click on Music and you'll see the usual song list. Find the files on your iPod that you want to remove, highlight them and delete directly as above by pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
To select multiple items such as all the songs in an album, click on the first track in the list hold down the shift key and click on the last track to highlight the selection. Then press the delete key.
To summarise, you start by highlighting the song/video/selection in either the iTunes library or on the iPod song list as displayed in iTunes then press the delete key on your keyboard: Deleting songs or playlists from your iPod

How can you delete songs off the ipod without deleting songs off your itunes library?

How can you delete songs off the ipod without deleting songs off your itunes library? My son's ipod automatically synced all the songs in my library to his ipod which he now wants to get rid of. Is there a way to delete them all without me having to erase my library?

Do not select the songs to sync, then sync.

I would really like to get these songs (not illegally like most people) because i really like them but they are only in the U.K. or Irish version of iTunes and I'm on the Canadian version
If anyone can tell me how i could possibly get these that would be great thanks

OS X is the same no matter where you buy it. You can switch it to Japanese or one of 30 other languages in few seconds via the system preferences.
If you want a Japanese keyboard as well, you can select that when you configure your purchase:

Same Ipod recognized twice by iTunes, crashes when deleting songs off iPod.

I know that others have had this issue but there was never an answer and it was awhile back so I figured I'd post a new message. Everytime I sync my iPod it is recognized twice by iTunes. What I mean by this is that it looks as if I am syncing two iPods with the same name at the same time, although upon examination there contents appear different (when looking at the color bar that shows how much of the iPod is video, music, other, etc...) In addition, if I attempt to delete a song or songs off of the iPod, Itunes crashes but with no error message, just straight to the desktop, no questions asked. I know this is not a problem with drive letters as I have already checked that out and Windows is only recognizing the iPod once as the Q drive and no other drive shares that letter. Can someone please help? (or will my question end up in the iTunes message board graveyard of unanswered problems like so many others?)

so yeah i just tried that... didnt work. I changed the drive letter from G: to I: and no dice. This is all after i used msconfig to disable all third party services that automatically load at windows start up. Yet once again, those weren't the problem. So i completely uninstalled itunes, redownloaded, and then reinstalled the newest version with the third party services still disabled. Once again, itunes crashes : /
my friend is coming over in a bit and im going to see if i can successfully connect to her itunes. Only other options right now i feel i have is to pay apples sorry *** $30 to help me solve this over the phone.. or i can restore my ipod, then try again : ( any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated : )

Deleting songs on ipod that playlist no longer exist in itunes

I share the itunes with my son and we use to use the auto sync function. I figured out how to manually sync but deleted my original play list some how in between. Now I have playlist on my ipod that is not in itunes. I can drop song into my play list but I cannot figure out how to delete the song no longer wanted on my ipod since I no longer have playlist in itunes....please help.

If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and when it shows in the iTunes 7 source list click on the chevron (the little triangle) to the left of the iPod icon This will display the various icons for the iPod itself, Music, Movies, TV Shows and Playlists. Click on Music and you'll see the traditional song view. Find the files on your iPod that you want to remove, highlight them and either press the delete key on your keyboard or or right click and choose Delete.

How do I take songs off Ipod Classic if they are no longer in ITunes?

I've nearly filled my Ipod Classic with music. Since my computer only has so much storage and ITunes couldn't possibly store all the songs, I kept deleting them, then would add new ones, move them manually to the Ipod, and then delete them. I continued this cycle to get as much music as I wanted on the Ipod. But now I'd like to add some new music and I'm willing to sacrifice some of the music that's on the Ipod. So how do I remove songs from the Ipod if they are no longer in ITunes?

It sounds like your iPod is set to use the Manually manage music and videos setting, which is on the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes. When you use the manual method, the iTunes library on the computer is not linked in any way to the library on the iPod.
So how do I remove songs from the Ipod if they are no longer in ITunes?
So, that does not even matter. iTunes is not keeping the two libraries "in sync" in any way. First, if the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. The iPod appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES, when connected.
To remove songs from the iPod manually, click the small triangle to the left of the iPod's name (in the sidebar) to drop down its content list, indented below the iPod. Click on Music there. The list of songs on the iPod is shown to the right. Select the song you want to remove and press Delete on the keyboard. You can do this with more than one song selected.
NOTE: It is a bad and risky idea to keep the only copy of song files on an iPod, which can become lost, broken, or in need of a Restore. You will eventually lose your music. You should keep all of your songs in your iTunes library on your computer (as the "master copy"). If the internal drive does not have the space, you should get an external drive that is large enough to hold all of your songs (with room to grow). You can then set up iTunes to store its iTunes Media folder on the external drive.

How do I take songs off IPOD?

I share a library with my 13 year old daughter and I dont want Hannah Montana on my IPOD. How do I take those songs off? They went on when I synched the IPOD.

If you are sharing the same library, then set up a smart playlist and change your iPod to sync only that(those) playlist(s). For example, if Hanna Montana is the only thing you don't want, then make a smart playlist where the rule is artist IS NOT Hanna Montana and now that playlist will basically be your entire library except Hanna and you can sync that to the iPod instead.

Using itunes with your ipod (deleting songs off ipod)

Hellow, im kinda new to ipod nano and i have a question that i can not find out and is kinda hard for me as a (newb) too figure out. When i open up itunes it shows my Libary and all that good stuff. I plug my ipod in, Than loads, Than it will say Tim's Ipod beacuse that's what i have saved it as. What i want to do is delete some of the songs off my ipod that i have downloaded. Is this possible or no beacuse i dont have a clue.
Thank you
Tim

iTunes for Windows and the standard copy protected songs purchased from the iTunes Store are only compatible with the iPod/iPhone range and the iTunes enabled phones from Motorola. You may be able to get your player working with the aid of a third party helper program. Have a look at this one and see what you think: iTunes Agent -Windows
If your player supports drag and drop through Windows Explorer you can drag tracks from the iTunes Music folder rather than through the iTunes interface. Also remember that many players will not work with AAC (MP4) format at present so if you imported anything from CD into iTunes using the AAc encoder then they will need to be converted to MP3. You won't be able to convert iTunes Store copy protected songs, you can only burn them to data discs for backup or Audio CD to play on other players.

Any way to delete songs off iPod without iTunes?

I'm planning on going on a long trip where I would prefer not to take my powerbook.
Is there any way to delete files/songs off the iPod without a computer? That way I can import more photos [with the camera connector] when I see that I'm running out of space in the field?
Thanks

How do you delete songs on iTune that are NOT on the library?

I got a new computer few days ago, and I downloaded iTune on my new computer today.
I want to delete all my songs that are in my iPod Touch now, and want to buy other songs.
I don't have any songs in my library at the moment, since there's no song in my new computer now.
So I want to delete songs, but since I don't have any of those songs in the library, I can't delete them. (I can't delete them since they are not on the library.)
Are there any ways I can delete songs that are NOT on the library?

You don't want to keep the songs that are on your iPod touch, in your library?
You can keep them in your library and not put them on the touch.
Then you can purchase other songs and put those on the touch.

How do I delete songs off of my iphone4s?

I am having a really hard time getting songs off of my iphone. I know that I need to go to itunes and uncheck all of the songs from the "music" tab under where I see my iphone as a device, but it's still not working. I went on other discussion boards on here and read that I should try to uncheck the box to manually manage music and then try to uncheck them again, but now I have my entire itunes library on my phone, even though I unchecked all of the boxes of music that I don't want. Help!

Under "devices" when you click on my iphone, and look at the summary I have "sync only checked songs" clicked and "manually manage music and videos" clicked. Is this incorrect?
If you have Manually manage music and videos checked, then checking/unchecking songs does nothing.
Just select them on the iPhone and press Delete.
Check all the songs in iTunes.
Create playlists in iTunes that you wnat to use for the iPhone.
Select the iPhone in iTunes & uncheck Manually manage Music and Videos.
Click the Music tab across the top.
Select Sync playlists and Selected playlists.
Tick the playlists you want on the iPhone.
Click Sync at the bottom.
To change the content on your iPhone, just add/delete from these playlists and sync the iPhone.
