How do I get the U2 album off my iphone ?

I have an iphone 4s and itunes on my macbook pro linked to that iphone handset.
I have followed all the instructions provided to get rid of this U2 album off my iphone.
It no longer appears in my itunes on my macbook.  I have done everything advised on my iphone but when I go into the album to delete each song - the "left swipe" action does not bring up the red delete button - it just plays the song.
All I could think of (in desperation was to delete my music app and re-sync with my laptop - but of course you can't do that because it comes with the phone.
Please tell me why my left swipe function to delete is not working on this phone ( a relatively new handset) - or just tell me how I can get rid of this terrible album that was not of my choosing.
Shame to Apple for letting this happen in the first place.  Now I have to waste my time dealing with it.
Thanks

Hello mlcollard,
The article linked below details how to hide purchases, which should prevent the album from appearing on your phone.

  • I changed email address, i updated in the manage apple id page, saved info but I cannot get into my iphone because the old email address keep showing up.  How can I get the old address off my iphone??

    help me please to remove my old email address on my iphone.  I already changed the address on the apple id page, but it hasn't tranferred to the phone and I cannot use my iphone.  My head is about to explode! 

    Welcome to the Apple community JB.
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • If your phone is broken how do you get the apple id off that phone?

    if your iphone is broken how do you get the apple id off of it?

    You can either,
    A: Go to iForgot.apple.com and reset the passcode using the password system there, or by going to appleid.apple.com
    or 
    B: IF possible restore the device to factory settings via iTunes.
    What's the xtent of the damage and the reason you need to do it?
    IF it's for iMessage as "Chief501" you will have to go with Option A or just wait till it falls off itself.

  • How do I get the back cover off?

    Hey guys I just bough a new GE70 2PE Apache Pro (Ge70 2PE-010US to be precise) and I want to add an SSD to it. How do I get the back cover off so I can open it up?

    Quote from: TheSarge;102473
    I figured it out. What was stumping me is that there's a screw under the god dam "Warranty Sticker."
    By the way, I am not happy that MSI made the retarded decision to replace the Windows Context Menu keyboard key with a second "\" key and move it next to the space bar. There's already a "\" key on the keyboard, MSI; Why the hell would I want two of them? Any idea how to rectify this idiocy?
    I've never really use this Windows Context Menu key.. so this never bothers me.
    but think you can ask why they have this design, I don't really notice it until you bring it up.
    I remember they have a online system.

    3710 How do I get the back cover off?
    I had it off once to put the battery in; now it appears to be stuck.
    I 'm trying to follow the pictorial instructions, but it is not budging.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    We used 3 hands
    Two thumbs placed according to manual.
    Then at the same time by pushing with a fingernail at the end of the cover (from you third hand)  from the direction of the camera it should come of easily.

    No, they are different apps.  The beta one in icloud is for use by PC's as well as Mac's via a web browser and lets users collaborate on documents.  It can't removed.  Just ignore it if you have no use for it.

    To what format file are you saving from Audacity?  Although technically AIFF format can save data tags within the file itself I have not found this to always work with all applications.  Likely the information you enter into Audacity is just being saved in the file name.  When you add this file to iTunes, if iTunes cannot find tags it recognizes it will simply add the track with the file name as the track name.  You need to add the tracks to iTunes, then enter the information using File > Get Info for a track or series of tracks,
    Some of the above information may vary slightly depending upon the file format being used.
    It helps when asking questions here to provide as much information at the onset as possible.  We didn't know until this stage that all these menus were in fact part of Audacity and not iTunes.

  • S750 - How many people get the power on/off/resetting issue?

    How many people get the power on/off/resetting issue?
    I've had my S750s for about 6 months, with X-Fi Elite Pro, and has been doing it since.
    Any idea on what's the cause? Something to do with the control pod?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    What do you mean exactly? On my side I have power on/off/resetting issue when the speaker are in standby mode (thus red light on the control pod) and when I switch them on via the remote control or the control pod. It makes a strange noise in the subwoofer ("clic"), the red light disappear, then a new noise and the speakers are switched on. The problem is that all volume levels (rear / side / center / sub and main) are reinitialized! I have to configure them each time this problem appears...
    I have a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS connected to this speaker system. For me it is related to an electrical problem in the subwoofer like if the voltage was not stable (variations).
    Regards,
    Vincent

    Assuming you are using iTunes 11.1:
    Connect your iPhone to your computer.
    In iTunes towards the upper right of your screen you will see the name of your iPhone. Click on it (not the eject symbol.
    This will open a series of windows with tabs.
    Select the tab for photos.
    Untick the ones you do not want on your iPhone and at the bottom right click on Apply.
    They will be removed.

  • Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address.  My other devices all have the correct address.  How can I get the correct address for my iPhone?  The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

    Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address.  My other devices all have the correct address.  How can I get the correct address for my iPhone?  The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone (if you're using iOS 7), then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
