How do I remove music off of my phone?

I want to take all of my music off of my iphone, and I've unchecked music and synced in the My iPhone section of iTunes but even when I do that it still says I have 115 songs. I have no idea what those songs are or where they even are. So then I go to the music app on my iPhone and I have 296 songs that all have a cloud with an arrow on them and most are grayed out. I want ZERO songs on my phone and I'm getting really frustrated.

One the device: Settings > iTunes App Store > Show All > Music > Off.
In iTunes: Connect the device, select it's music tab, make sure Sync Music is unchecked.
Back on the device: Swipe to delete any remaining tracks.
If that fails, backup, restore as a new device, restore the backup.

  • How do I remove groups off my my phone contacts

    I Have two groups that I want to remove from my phone contacts and can out figure out how to delete them, help!

    You installed the "SaveKeeper" adware. To remove it, please take the steps below.

    1. From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions, including any with the name "RightCoupon," "SaveKeep," or similar. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    2. In the Applications folder, there may be an item with the name "SaveKeeper" or similar. Move it to the Trash and empty. If you get a warning that the item is in use, force it to quit, then try again.

  • How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone

    How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone but I cannot see a way to remove any of it

    If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up. 
    You should have a look in:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/Extensions
    You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple.

  • How do i take music off

    how do i take music off of my ipod?

    If iTunes is set to automatic synchronization, just remove the track from iTunes. If it's set to synchronize selected playlists, remove the track from the playlist. If it's set to manually manage your iPod, select the track through the iPod's icon in iTunes and press the Delete key.

  • How do i remove music from the cloud

    Hi
    How do i remove music from the cloud which is showing on my i-phone

    You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, but you can hide items via your computer's iTunes so that they don't show : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If your tagline is wrong and your phone is on iOS 7 and you have music in the cloud showing in the Music app on your phone, then you can also turn that off via Settings > iTunes & App Store

  • How do i take music off my ipod nano

    how do i take music off my ipod nano

    How you delete depends how you have your iPod 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. if you are updating manually, connect your iPod and click on the icon when it shows in the iTunes source list. 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 then press the delete key on your keyboard.

  • Okay, so my friends music downloaded to my iPhone when i put it on his computer to charge and i re-synced it to mine and all his music is still there but blank and wont play how can i get it off of my phone, its so annoying!!

    Okay, so my friends music downloaded to my iPhone when i put it on his computer to charge and i re-synced it to mine and all his music is still there but blank and wont play how can i get it off of my phone, its so annoying!! My itunes only has like 4 songs because my computer crashed and lost all my songs, and I'm not trying to steal his music. But like I said its still in the music app on the phone but its all blank and wont play. I just want it off.

    When he plugs it into his Mac again, he should be asked if he wishes to sync with that Mac.

  • How can i delete music off of my ipad 2, how can i delete music off of my ipad 2

    I have an ipad 2 it has software vision 4.3.2 how can i delete music off of it. it wont let me when i attach it to my computer and it wont delete directly from the ipad

    If its to save room I wouldn't drag the files to the trash. That would get rid of them for good. I know you said you can't by computer, if your syncing with that computer, under music when it's connected, don't sync full library. Go through and select the certain songs you want. If its to delete just off your iPad because you don't have a comp read what ana posted.
