  • How do you delete phantom albums from the music on my iPad?  I keep all my shareable music in the cloud and don't want to utilize iPad storage.  I read the answer that says I have to download the music again so I can delete it but that seems silly.

    i have most of my shareable music in the cloud.  I try to clean out the downloaded music on my iPad to clean up storage.  i used to be able to delete local copied music easily but somehow in ios 8 or so, I lost the ability to delete albums.  I read the support suggestion that I should re download this music so I then can delete it.   This seems so silly I can't imagine that this was Apple's intention.  Anybody got a clue?

  • How can I remove an album from icloud?  I don't want it at all.

    I removed an album from my itunes library, but it still shows up on the icloud and I don't want it at all.  How can I remove it from icloud?  I don't want to see it on my iphone or icloud or anything....How can I remove this??

    You can't remove it. All you can do is hide it:

    Apple removed the ability to hide purchases directly on the phone, but after hiding in iTunes on your computer, sync your phone & see if it also hides on your phone.

  • How do you remove photo albums from Iphone4?

    I have been trying to remove photo albums from my Iphone4 which have been synced from my PC. Is there any way of doing this without taking the phone to the staff at the Apple Store?

    Connect the phone, click on the Photos tab and uncheck the albums you want to remove. Then sync.
    BTW, the staff at the Apple store won't be able to do it unless you take your computer to them.

  • How do i remove photo albums from Iphone that appear when syncing which I cannot prevent

    Iphone 4.  just synced with laptop and to my horror now have every photo from laptop in albums on my phone which i cannot remove.  Have gone back into sync mode and it wont let me access the albums on phone to delete.  Such ridiculous situation not to be able to delete by choice on phone.  Sync only repeats the process.  Not a happy iphone user.  Can anyone help and suggest a simple way to remove the albums.  Also what to do when syncing to avoid happening again. When syncing,  I dont seem to be able to access my iphone or chose what sync processes i want as the sync only happens as one process including the photos.  Is this a fault??  Cannot believe Apple would make this such a difficult process.  Help appreciated.

    Thanks but it wont let me choose and once the albums on iphone it wont let me remove..... any more thoughts??

    Swipe left-to-right across the album/song, on your phone, hit delete. Then make sure they are not selected, in iTunes, to sync to your phone.

  • How do I transfer .mp3 files from my PC to my iPad Air

    Have .mp3 files (recorded bird songs) that would like to put on new iPad Air.  Also have old MacBook.

    If you want them in the Music app on your iPad then you can add them to your Mac's iTunes library via File > Add To Library (or drag-and-drop them from Finder into iTunes).
    You can then sync them to your iPad (you've synced the iPad to that Mac before ?) by connecting it to your Mac, selecting it via the device icon that should show in your Mac's iTunes towards the top left (next to the content category icons), selecting the Music category on the left-hand sidebar, and selecting and syncing them to the iPad.

  • How do I remove purchased albums from artist list ios7

    In the music app on ios7 under the artist tab, I can now see any artist I've ever downloaded from the iTunes Store. This includes any of the free artists I downloaded such as the free iTunes Gifts during the holiday season. How do I hide artists from the artist tab. Even though I haven't downloaded the track or album to my iphone it still shows as an option to download from the cloud.

    Figured it out. It's in settings- music - then turn off Show All Music

  • How do I remove photot albums from ipad2?

    I tried to sync photos from my old iPhone to my ipad2 and all the photos from my pc downloaded. Can I remove them from my ipad2?

    Ifnthey were downloaded as part of a sync, you can only get them off by resyncing.  Uncheck what ever albums you don't want -in I tunes- .  Picture you take on the pad, or import thru the cck can be deleted, synced photos are removed by resyncing.

  • How do I get the albums (from CD Disc) off my iPad onto my new Computer (Macbook Air)

    I had a Windows PC, this was the original computer that all the apple devices used to get music, apps etc.
    I updated to a Macbook Air and want to get the Albums (CD Discs) from my iPad onto my computer, so I can use this computer as the base.
    Instead of removing the old computer, I just turned on Home share so I have my Apple Store purchased music, but it will not load the albums I had.
    Any way of getting it onto the Macbook?

    Try a third-party utility such as Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac - Macroplant.com.
