How do I remove a previously purchased song from iPhone music

I have removed the song from my iTunes purchased list on my mac, however it still shows up in my songs list on my iPhone withthe down load cloud icon. It still plays as if in the library when connected. There =does not seem to be a way to remove it. Swiping from right to left does not work to remove.

You can hide your iCloud Purchases, so they will not show any longer:

  • How do I get my previous purchased songs from itunes back into my library?

    I was trying to sync new music onto my iPod Nano and somehow removed my previous purchased songs from my library.  I can see the old songs in my account but not my library.  How can I retrieve my purchased old songs and place them back in my library with my new songs?

  • How can I re-download previously purchased songs from itunes?

    How can I re-download previously purchased songs from itunes?

    You only get one download.  It is your responsibility to backup your purchases.
    UNLESS, you are in the U.S, then you can use the Beta version of icloud.  Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick links

  • How do I re-download previously purchased songs from Itunes?

    I had purchased some songs from Itunes on an old PC. Now when I go to itunes it shows those songs as "puchased", but I can't figure out how to put them on my new computer. It doesn't give me any options to download them again or even pay for them again. What am I doing wrong?

  • How can i remove the previous icloud acount from my iphone4?

    Hi,
    My dad gave me his old iphone as he got an upgrade. I can't seem to change his icloud account to mine. I'm getting his updated calender and his mail - and there seems to be some confusion between both our accounts. He seems to be acquiring some of my contacts - some of which have names which have led to some probing questions... So basically this needs to be sorted out! How can i delete his account from the iphone but not his whole icloud account? he would not be happy if i did this...

  • My computer's hard drive crashed and now that its fixed I want to download previously purchased songs from Itunes

    My computer's hard drive crashed and now that its fixed (my computer) I want to download previously purchased songs from Itunes.  When I'm signed into Itunes and attempt to download from the cloud a text box pops up saying "I need to authorize the computer before I can download previous purchases".  I'm using the same computer that I purchased all previous songs.  So how do I authorize my computer?

    On your Computer...
    Open iTunes...  
    If you're using iTunes 11 click on the box icon in the top-left corner to see the " Show Menu Bar "  
    and from the Menu Bar select Store...
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer.
    (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.
    See Here for full details...

  • When I add a new computer, how do I download all previously purchased songs to it?

    I have added a new computer to my system and I can't seem to access previously purchased songs.  Help, please!

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

    Hello Jamie11673
    Check out the first article to go through the process of authorizing your iTunes library. Go to Store > Authorize This Computer and enter in the Apple ID and password. If it continues after that, check out the second article to resolve the issue.

  • How do i remove my old Apple Id from iPhone's iCloud setting which does not exist anymore

    Purchased new iphone 5s, installed with itunes restoring backup from iphone 4 (which was too old a backup). It restored an old apple id (which i do not use anymore) in the iCloud settings while having my new Apple Id in the Itunes & App Store. I cannot turn off the iCloud setting due to old AppleId popping up - which does not exist.. How do i remove the old Apple Id from icloud setting on the phone.
    I cannot erase the phone as it asks for the password for the old Apple Id. And i cannot do the restore again (after i made a recent back up my iphone 4) as itunes asks me to turn off Find my phone.

    The Apple ID exists. The email address you used to create it may not, but the Apple ID does. Call AppleCare and ask to speak to someone in account security.

  • How do I download my previously purchased songs (on a different computer) on a PC running XP? I have followed the instructions but none of it allows me to download my songs. I deauthorized all computers and authorized this one only but it didn't help.

    I had to change computers and cannot access my old drive. iTunes shows me the list of songs but I cannot get most to play. Instead I get a message saying "cannot locate"
    I have tried following the support tutorials but it still does not allow me to download my previous purchases.
    I tried de-authorizing all computers and then re-authorizing this on but it still doesn't allow me to access most of my songs.

    It sounds like you might have broken links to your content. Either repair these by putting the files you've recovered where iTunes expects to find them or delete the broken entries then go to iTunes Store > Purchased > Music > Not on This Computer, and click the download links.
    If you have an Apple device see also Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • How can I remove dotted circle U2 songs from my iPhone?

    I've faced with the annoying 'Unable to download item' pop-ups in every time after the phone booted.
    Seem this happen after upgraded to iOS 8 and after downloaded U2 SOI album.
    Things I've tried..
    Remove iTunes gift album "Songs of Innocence" from your iTunes music library and purchases Not work.
    Manual delete album [How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store] Not work.
    Re-download album and sync to the iPhone then try to remove again. Not work.
    May be a digital booklet problem. But it's not. [iBooks: Syncing iTunes Digital Booklets to iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch] Not work.
    Sign-out from iTunes, iCloud / reboot the iPhone / sign-in again. Not work.
    What can I do with these dotted circle U2 songs in my phone?
    Please help..

    I had this issue with my iPhone - drove me nuts. Tried everything.
    It appears to be an issue with a persistent file in the Purchases folder in the iPhone/iPad directory, which I could only access with a file browsing utility (iBrowse). Once installed you can browse to the Purchases folder and delete all the entries.
    Check the box in iTunes to Manually Manage Music and then delete the grey U2 tracks.
    Sync and they'll be gone
    Fixed!

  • How can I remove the forced U2 songs from my iphone without synchronizing?

    Hello. I have about 100 songs merely on my iPhone, nowhere else. Apple moved somehow these U2 songs on my iPhone without permission. Now it is like having an undesired cupboard standing in the middle of my living room and I cannot remove it. A synchronizing would also delete my 100 songs. What can I do? Please help!

    Hello Pammander,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    The following article provides information on how to remove the U2 gift album:
