How do I sync iPhone and iTunes so music deleted in iPhone is also deleted from iTunes?

Hi there folks,
Not sure this is possible as I have done some looking online and can't find an answer, but thought the experts here may be able to help me.
I have quite an extensive music library, at least 5000 songs.  Problem is, I don't like/want to keep all of them, but to sit at the computer and listen to them one by one to delete is very painful.  I have my iPhone plugged in and playing music all day at work.  Is it possible to delete the song off of my iPhone and then sync in such a way that the same song is deleted from iTunes at a later date?  Is this possible?  I don't know if the music on the iPhone can override the music in iTunes....
Just in case it is helpful, I have the latest version of iTunes, run IOS 7.1.2 on a 4S
Thanks for any help, in advance!!

Your iPhone actually gets the same form of files like songs from your iTunes library when you synchronise.
If you delete a song in iTunes library, it means that song will also be deleted in your iPhone when you sync.
However, if you delete a song in your iPhone, the song will recover after synchronization since iPhone copies files exactly from your iTunes library.

    There are a couple of iOS Backup Extractor programs that can read data from the backup sets. I've not personally tested any so I don't have a recommendation.

    The only way to sync Notes is through a mail server. If you don't want to use iCloud, you'll have to use some other mail account, or run your own mail server under OS X Server. The latter is a job for advanced users only.

  • How do I sync contacts and calendar from iphone to PC?

    How do I sync contact and calendar info from my iPhone into Outlook on my PC?  The iPhone User Guide suggests that you can only sync from the PC to the phone. Is there a way to reverse the direction?

    The sync process for contacts and calendar events with a supported app on your computer is a bi-directional or true sync process.
    There is a way to replace on the iPhone with what is available in the supported application on your computer but not the other way around.
    If the supported application on your computer includes contacts and calendar events and the same with your iPhone, with the first sync for this data you will be provided a merge prompt, which you want to select.
    This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

    Because they are two separate devices.

  • HT4914 My wife and I both have iPhones and iPads. Can we both have access to the same iTunes Match library or do we have to have separate subscriptions?  Our devices are synced to the same computer and we currently download titles from the same library.

    You need to reconfigure your phone for use with your Apple ID. I suggest you restore yours as new then reconfigure it with your information and Apple ID. Be sure to disable Find My Phone, if it's enabled, before proceeding.

    The other responder gave you a program that will transfer stuff from your iPod to your new computer.  You can transfer iTunes purchaces to your new computer by:

    After you move your stuff to your new computer you will have to let iTunes erase your iPod and then sync with the stuff that is now in your iTunes library.  You will loose app data though.

    If they are iTunes purchased music then go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and turn off Show All.
    Next
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

    Try taking a new picture with your iPhone then reconnect it to your computer.

  • I can no longer sync iphone and ipad - 'cannot access conflicts' unable to retrieve conflict info from sync server' - any ideas please?  Previous enquirer with this didn't seem to find an answer?

    anybody found this and got the answer?  both ipad and iphone used to be ok, just started happening last couple of months.
    See from communities question that I'm not the only one, but don't seem to be able to find solution posted anywhere.
    It's really annoying cos now ipad, iphone and outlook are all saying they don't match appointments and contacts - aaaarrrgghhhh!

    Here is the solution. 
    Rationale: You want to be able to have the dates on your items (notes, contacts) on your iphone to be the same as on outlook.  This will eliminate any sync conflicts.  You will also notice that if you modify something on the iphone and sync, you will lose the modification you made.
    Steps:
    1) In outlook, export the data (contacts, notes) to a CSV file
    2) Delete you notes/contacts in outlook
    3) Sync your iphone and select replace information on this iPhone (in iTunes)
    4) Now your contacts and notes will be empty on both your iPhone and Outlook
    5) Now import your contacts and notes from the CSV files back into outlook.  What this does is put the current date and time on every individual item
    6) Sync your iPhone to iTunes normally
    7) everything will work correctly now with no sync issues and no conflicts.

    You will have to sync your iphone to this computer first, erasing the current content and replacing wioth content from the new computer.
    Make sure you have copied everything from the old comptuer to the new one first.

    iPhone is designed to sync with one computer only, if you sync with another, all your content will be erased and replaced by whatever is on that computer.

  • Unable to sync contacts and calendar to outlook 2010 or iphone 5

    I work in IT and several of our clients are have trouble syncing contacts and calendar to outlook 2010 or iphones.
    I have uninstall itunes completely from the computer, deleted the backup and clear the sync history nothing seems to be working.
    Is there are problem with the latest itunes and if so when will the fix be release???

    This is exactly what I am dealing with. Blackberry Link will work great for awhile and then something happens and I can not sync my contacts. I have spent many hours and days trying to fix this to no avail. BB support has been great but I still go through a long process each time. This week I finally gave up and started using the Microsoft Hotmail Outlook Connector since my company does not offer Active Sync or Exchange. It works flawlessly. I would dedfinitely check it out. If you swith to a Widows Phone or Android this is one of the options they recommend you use.
    In a nutshell Link is awful and BB should be ashamed of the product they put on the market. I will only use it for syncing pictures and documents. Good luck!
