  • How do i delete the U2 album from my ipod that i didn't ask for?

    Okay the new U2 album just showed up on my ipod awhile back and I tried to like it but i don't. I deleted the songs but the album cover and all is still there. It's not that big a deal but it just cramps my style.

    Go to https://itunes.com/soi-remove.
    Click Remove Album to confirm you'd like to remove the album from your account.
    Sign in with the Apple ID and password you use to buy from the iTunes Store.
    You'll see a confirmation message that the album has been removed from your account.

  • How do I delete duplicate songs on my iPod that do not appear in my iTunes?

    I recently had an interrupted iTunes update that really messed up my iPod Touch. I had to restore it to "factory settings" (it has since been running a lot slower than it was before) and it duplicated over half of my songs, which takes up a significant amount of my storage. Today I tried un-selecting all of my songs in my iTunes Library in hopes of also removing the duplicates, but no such luck - everything was removed from my iPod EXCEPT the duplicates, and as far as can I see there's no way of deleting the extras from my actual iPod.
    I've tried everything I could think of. I even selected "Music" under my iTunes Library, "View", and "Show Duplicate Items". However, not even a single one of the "duplicate" items on this list are the duplicated songs that're stuck on my iPod.
    It's incredibly frustrating and I'm at a loss here. I'm afraid now if I manually go through my list to re-sync all the songs except the duplicate items that it'll just re-duplicate them or something. I can't believe just clicking "yes" on a simple update could reak so much havoc on this little thing.
    Any help is greatly appreciated, the nearest Apple store to me is over an hour drive away and I really don't feel like wasting the gas if the solution is fairly simple.
    Please help & thank you!

    how do I delete a song from my ipod?

    How you delete content from your iPod depends how you have it set to update:
    If you are updating automatically then delete the files from the iTunes library and next time you connect they will automatically be deleted from your iPod. Highlight the file and press the delete key on your keyboard, or right click and choose either Clear or Delete, depending on which version of iTunes you are using.
    If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and click on the icon 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 delete directly.
    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 do I delete some songs on my ipod nano 5th generation with itunes 11? PLEASE HELP!

    Urgh its just so annoying that Apple updated Itunes 11 and it wouldnt let me delete songs that I hate! Its syncing all of the songs and I didnt want that to happen. I tried many things on the keyboard like clicking the song along with Ctrl + Alt + delete button and clicking on the song, going to edit and the delete button seemed to be gone from it. They were unsucessfull and Im stressed out about it. How can I delete the songs that I want to get rid of?

    I want Steve Jobs Back!!! I'm seriously thinking of converting back to the older iTunes.We have a saying in my country,it goes,"If it's not broke,don't fix it!" Sometimes I think they do updates just to keep busy at their jobs or just to **** us off.I don't have time to learn new software everytime someone at apple gets a bright idea.At least they should think it through and test it well before giving it to us.Apple is not a small company,how come we got to work out all their bugs and problems? I may send them a bill! LOL

  • How do I remove a song from my ipod that has been removed from itunes but still appears on my ipod

    I have an ipod touch and my problem is how to remove songs from it when they have been removed from itunes. After synching the songs still appear on the ipod. How can I fix this?

    Hi empty,
    Have you deleted the song from the iPod itself? Go to the songs list and swipe left on the song title. A "Delete" option should come up allowing you to directly delete the item from your iPod....
    Cheers,

  • How do I delete a song on my phone that has been downloaded from iCloud?

    I listened to a few songs on my phone that were showing up from iCloud. However, it seems now that these songs have been downloaded into my library, though some of them I do not want there because they will play when I have my phone on shuffle.
    I have gone to settings and turned off "Show all music" and on my computer, I've also turned of homesharing. I can swipe left to delete songs that I have put on my phone from iTunes library on my computer, but the songs that I listened to on iCloud will not delete, nothing happens when I swipe left. How do I get rid of them?

    Go to the song list in the Music app, swipe across the title and tap Delete.  It will be replaced by an iCloud download symbol.  You can't delete this as it is a permanent record of your previous purchase.  However, if you don't want to see it, you can hide them using iTunes on your computer, as explained here: iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.

  • HT204074 How do you delete a song off your ipad that is not listed on the itunes song list?

    Some songs came already loaded with my new ipad air that I hate and want to delete but can't locate the directory where they reside.  I downloaded a file manager app but it only had the option to add new folders, not access the one's already on the ipad.  I signed up for icloud and even bought itunes match at the direction of a blog someone wrote as a way to access the icloud song list and delete the songs.  I deleted the album purchase (that I never made in the first place) listed in the purchase section of iTunes.  The songs are not listed on my PC version of itunes so I can't delete them from there (right click and choose delete).  They are only on the ipad itself.  Why is it so difficult to simply remove a file from your ipad?  Is there a way to delete these songs or am I stuck with them on my ipad music list?  I reset the entire setup thinking it would erase everything on my ipad but that didn't work either.  Please advise.  Thanks.

    Does it play on the iPad?
    What happens when you swipe it left and fight? You should get a Delete or Remove button. If Remove then there will be a cloud icon by the song after you remove the sound file from the iPod.
    If it is U2 album then:

  • How can I delete a song on my iPod in iOS 5? It won't unsync!

    I have tried numerous times to unsync several songs from my iPod touch (4th gen, iOS 5), but they just won't be removed! It seems to be ones that I synced with over the cloud. Now that I changed back to backing up to my computer instead of the cloud, they were synced by the computer and I now have two copies of the songs. Even if I uncheck them, they don't go away.
    Any help is appreciated!

    There are a few way you could do this that do not involved deleting from iTunes. The default iPod setting is automatically update with iTunes when connected. You can keep the automatically update setting and select "automatically update selected playlists only" then all you need to do is remove the song from the chosen playlist(s) and update, it remains in your library should you want to add it in future.
    You could also set your iPod to "manually manage songs and playlists" and add or delete whatever you like from it without affecting iTunes
    Another way but more difficult to manage is to choose the "Only update checked songs" option in the iPod Preferences. By un-checking a song in iTunes, it will not be updated to the iPod and if already on the iPod, unchecking the song in iTunes will remove it from the iPod during the next update with iTunes.
    For info:
    The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
    1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
    2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
    3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.

  • How do you delete play lists from an iPod that is sharing the same itunes account as your iphone?

    Hi, I've just purchased my daughter an iPod Touch, I've registed the iPod on my iTunes account, but now it has all the same play lists that I have on my iPhone - some of the music isn't suitable but I can't delete any of it.  Does anybody know how I could delete the playlists - I don't think songs with the f bomb are suitable for 7 year olds!!! Help PLEASE....

    You can eventurally set a different Sync scheme for your daughtere's ipod Touch device when it connects to your itunes.
    Make sure you click on "Selected playlists" and then choose which playlists you want synced to your daughter's iPod. The rest will be deleted off her device with the next iTunes sync:

  • How do you delete duplicate songs from your iPhone that do not show up in your iTunes library?

    everytime i purchase songs on itunes and sync them to my iphone 4, the songs downloads twice. one as the actual song, and the second one doesnt do anything. when you click on it, it just skips to the next song and doesnt play anything. also this second song has this cirlce dot thing next to it when i am scrolling through my songs in my music...so how do i get rid of this second download? its really annoying to have and it wont let me delete it off my phone. alsoooo since it doesnt show up in my itunes library, i cant delte it off there either! HELP PLEASE

    On the springboard, locate the app you want to delete. For this example, I’ll use WeatherBug.
    Tap and hold down the icon of the application you want to delete. After a few seconds your screen will start to “wiggle” and an X will appear next to each of the apps you’ve installed via the App Store.
    Tap the X next to the icon of the app you want to remove. When prompted, selectDelete.
    And now it’s gone.
    If the application is listed in your iTunes Applications as well, you’ll want to remove it from there – or else it will re-install the next time you sync. Alternately you can keep the app in your iTunes Applications, and set iTunes not to sync all applications, just the ones you want to keep. See the Applications tab of your device the next time it’s connected in iTunes for syncing options.
