How do i stop my iphone from downloading music from the icloud when its on shuffle

Due to the limited space on my iphone, i only keep certain songs on it at one time. But when i play all music on shuffle, My iPhone is downloading songs from itunes match that i dont want. I only want the phone to shuffle through the songs already on my phone. When im out on 3G, it doesn't do it as i have music over 3G disabled in the settings, but at home on wifi, there doesn't seem to be a way to stop this happening. The other issue this causes, is that those songs then dont want to be deleted because they are not fully downloaded. Its a pain

In Settings > Music set "show all music" to OFF (not green).

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Why does my iPhone play muted music in the background when I connect to my car via Bluetooth? This put a drain on the phone battery

    My iPhone 4s plays muted music in the background when connected via Bluetooth to my 2009 Ford Focus. This puts a heavy drain on the phone battery. I would appreciate any ideas to prevent this happening.

    It doesn't really matter whether I am talking to Apple or not (and I'm sure they monitor these comments), I want everyone to know how bad this new iphone 4s is, and all of it's problems.
    Apple have already launched an upgrade to the software - it obviously did not help, as many around the world would concur.
    As far as being patient and waiting for another "update in the works" is concerned, it is just not satisfactory. This is not a cheap phone, and those who are experiencing these problems, should not have to be paying a substantial amount of money, for a very smart phone, that obviously, has some serious problems.

  • How do I stop my iphone received e-mails from cutting short in Outlook?

    I have set up my my Iphone Mail Account using gmail/googlemail.
    I often look at my e-mails for the first time using my Iphone but save them in Outlook 2003.
    I have found, however, that Outlook is now not downloading the WHOLE of the e-mail, only the part that my Iphone automatically downloaded at first instance. I also now get within my "Outlook version" the "Begin forwarded message" which comes from Iphone.
    How do I ensure that Outlook downloads the whole of my message and not just part of it?

    You can first export your contacts in your Android phone to your desktop or to a storage device. After this, please open your Gmail account followed by settings and then click on import button there. Then choose the saved contact file that you saved in the previous step.
    The next step is to iPhone. In this device, tap on Settings option and then click Add account and then click on Microsoft Exchange in there. Just feed in the required information in the respective fields such as your email ID, password, server name. Now just go through the rest of the process which is very easy to transfer contacts from Android device to iPhone.
    Best of Luck!!

  • HT1386 How do I stop my iPhone synching with music on a separate iPod device

    Please help!
    Every time I sync my iPhone  with iTunes on the computer I am finding all my husbands music from his iPod being synced onto my phone! How do I stop this happening. It's driving me nuts!

    First find your device in iTunes (Sceenshots are for iTunes 11)
    Next navigate to the Music Tab (1) then click 'Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres' (2). Customize what music you want on the iPhone (3)
    Click Apply in the lower right corner of the iTunes window

  • How do you stop kids deleting videos and music from ipad

    Hi,
    I'm able to check a box in restrictions so apps aren't deleted but there is no similar function to select for music and videos.
    I'm Getting fed up with my special needs kids being able to accidentally delete them.. its happened twice today, 25GB of videos accidentally were removed.
    How can we lock them so they can not be deleted?
    If there is no function, perhaps Apple needs to create one.
    thank you
    jasmum

    You can make a password protected folder of the apps your children use to access music and videos so they are not on the screen. They will not have access to music or videos. But I'm sure your problem is they want to see videos, hear music, etc. ...
    If they don't have them, maybe they'll lose interest and play with games specified for them. Even then, though, they can probably delete those, too.
    To my knowledge there are no apps to prevent your children from deleting music and videos. However, you are not alone. You might want to google it. If enough parents inforn Apple... Look what they've been doing for vision, hearing impaired, users with physical mobility problems, people on the autism spectrum, and others with learning issues/disabilities, etc. Here are a couple of ipad parents with similar questions/requests.

    If your ipad 2 is older than 90 days you do not have phone support. If more than a year, it's out of warranty. If you're near a genius bar make an appointment. Otherwise, I suggest the following solution.
    Contact Apple Support
    Need service or support? Start your request online and we’ll find you a solution.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why won't my iPhone 4 download music from iTunes?

    My iPhone 4 says I have downloaded the music that I'm trying to download already, but I haven't. I tried downloading it a bunch of times, but it never works. On the iTunes Store app it will tell me it's already downloaded, but through the music app it has the cloud thing meaning it isn't downloaded. Any help/suggestions is appreciated. Thank you :)
    P.S m phone has 1 GB left, but I'm only trying to download two songs. I deleted a whole album I never listen to anymore in case there wasn't enough room, but it didn't help. It still does the same thing. It just started too because I downloaded music early this morning and it worked.

    Log out of your Apple Store account (Settings > Store > Sign Out) then sign back in.  Should fix the problem.

  • How do i import photos and physically downloaded music from my broken iPhone onto the new one?

    So, I was on vacation last week and dropped my iPhone 4S 10 stories down onto concrete. Needless to say the screen didn't survive.
    I have backed up the old phone to iTunes and restored the new phone, yet all my photos are missing as well as any of the music that I hard downloaded onto the device.
    Any help??
    Thanks!
    John

    Hmm. Ok, so even though the broken iPhone is still recognized by iTunes, there is no way to pull the pictures from it?
    Also, all my music is in the cloud, but I'm wondering if there is an automatic way to simply get all the music that I have already physically downloaded onto my old iPhone onto the new without manually selecting each one.
    Thanks!

  • How can I stop my iPhone from synching my contacts and groups lists twice?

    How can I stop my iPhone from synching my contacts and groups lists twice....I am using iCloud but am not sure how correct this duplication.

    Go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Is this happening at the bottom in the signature section, or in the header of the mail where your email address is? If it is the signature, then go to the Signature area of the Mail settings. If this is in the header, then go to the account in question and edit your account information to include your name instead of Johnny.

  • With multiple iPhones and iPad, how do you keep from downloading data from one device to another? ie, my calander ended up on my daughter's iPad.

    With multiple iPhones and an iPad, how do I keep from downloading info from one device to another? All of my info, example my calendar, ended up on my daughter's iPad.

    Each device has its own sync preferences with iTunes when syncing multiple devices with the same iTunes library under the same computer login account.
    If sync calendars with the same calendar is selected under the Info tab for your daughter's iPad sync preferences with iTunes, the same calendar will be synced with her iPad.

  • How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

    How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

    As long as you share that AppleID for iCloud, you cannot.  You are sharing a a single iCloud account and sync services.  The only thing you can do is get a second AppleID and use it with iCloud - you do not have to use that new AppleID for anything but iCloud (ie. you can still share an AppleID for iTunes and App store purchases).
    P.S. I am assuming you both want to sync your contacts with iCloud?

  • Hey, constantly since I installed the iOS 7.1 upgrade, my iPhone has been constantly shutting down and I think it's really frustrating and I whant to know how I can stop my iPhone from shutting down so I can downgrade to iOS 7.0.4?

    Hey, constantly since I installed the iOS 7.1 upgrade, my iPhone has been constantly shutting down and I think it's really frustrating and I whant to know how I can stop my iPhone from shutting down so I can downgrade to iOS 7.0.4?

    7.1.1 is certainly compatible with the iPhone 4. Just try a reset first.
    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)
