  • How do you delete songs from iphone5, that are not in your iTunes library on the computer?! I have the spot unchecked where it says show all music and I still have songs on my iPhone that I want gone, but they're not in my iTunes library...HELP

    I have a iPhone 5 with the most up to date software and I have songs appearing on my phone that I've deleted prior too from iTunes on the computer. How do I remove them from my phone, I've tried the left to right swipe and that just plays the songs! :/ Can anyone help me, I'd be forever grateful if I didn't have to go back to the store! I went I today abc he unchecked the show all music and there's still songs I don't want on my iPhone! :(

    The answer to the question in the title of the thread is yes, but it is not necessarily a good idea. At some point you are likely to find you need to restore your iPod for one reason or another, or it could be lost, stolen or damaged. If your songs aren't on your computer, and backed up too, then you will be less than happy.

  • How do you copy all podcast information (new/deleted/downloaded) from one computer to another.

    I am changing my itunes computer and am trying to move my podcast subscriptions from the old machine to the new one.
    I want the new computer to know
    * which podcasts feeds I have subscribed to
    * which podcasts I have deleted
    * which podcasts I currently have downloaded on the old machine, so it can download them on the new machine.
    Currently I have only been able to get the feeds transferred.  The trouble with this is that this only automatically downloads the most recent entry - even of the podcasts that I am completely up to date with and have already seen that episode.  And, for the ones where I am not up to date, unless I can transfer the information, I am going to have to go through and manually delete the episodes I've already watched.  (and unfortunately it's not just a case of finding where I'm up to and deleting all previous episodes (some podcasts are out of order, some I want to relisten to) )
    Is there any way of doing this?  Old machine has iTunes 8.2, new machine has iTunes 10.2

    Thanks - I used the Layer > Duplicate command and it worked great!
    P.S. How do you drag and drop a layer? I tried dragging a layer to the other open image, but nothing happened. Do you have to hold down a specific key for this (I'm using Windows)?

    how do you permanently delete apps from all your mac products (MacBook Pro, iPad, iPhone)

    They are not taking up storage space.  Apple knows you installed them at one time (="purchased", whether you paid money or not), and merely keeps a list so that if you wish to reinstall any of them on this or a future device, you can.  This is useful if maybe you deleted them due to space constraints, and now have a device with more memory and wish to reinstall.
    It's also useful for taking a trip down Memory Lane looking at all the useless apps you installed once then immediately deleted once you realized they were total garbage ...

    Received a new mac for my daughter.  How do you get all the information from old mac?

    Your best bet, by far, is to use Setup Assistant when your shiny new Mac first starts up (not Migration Assistant later).

  • How do you delete your credit card information from iTunes

    I'm trying to delete my credit card information in iTunes off my ipad but its not giving me the option to. Yes I've tried settings>iCloud>apple I'd also I have tried settings>store>apple I'd . It just won't let me do it. Also I redeemed money from a gift card with iTunes but it won't let me do it because of my credit card.

    If you go to settings/store click on apple id and view account, if you cant change your payment method to none then you prob owe a balance.<----this happened to me.  To verify this login to your account on itunes on the computer and click purchase history.  if it shows you owe a balance you will have to pay it before you can remove your payment info

  • How can you transfer data from an ipod touch to the itunes library without having all your data deleted?

    I have a laptop and the hard drive had to be replaced because it WILL NOT work (This broken hard drive will be refered to as "HD1" from now on). So I had no choice but to have HD1 replaced with a better hard drive (the new one will be refered to as "HD2" from now on). I had HD1 for about 5 years, but what is stuck on HD1 is my itunes library will all of my music, like I said before HD1 will not work so I cannot retrieve any of my itunes data, or any data to be exact. But also, my data that was synced in HD1's itunes library is also on my ipod touch, which is still functional for the time being. HD2 has been installed and working perfectly and I installed itunes on it as well. If I synced my ipod touch to HD2's itunes library, all of my music on the ipod touch will get deleted. What I'm trying to do is have all of my music on my ipod touch transfered to HD2's itunes library without having anything deleted.
    Key things to remember:
    -"HD1" is my broken hard drive
    -"HD2" is my new and awesome hard drive
    -I can't access HD1 at all because it doesn't work
    -I have an ipod touch with all of HD1's music on it
    -HD2 has an empty itunes library on it
    -I need a way to transfer all the data on my ipod touch to HD2's itunes library without having anything deleted
    Is there someone, anyone who can help me out with this?

    I think so when you sign in your itunes library with your apple id which you were using on HD1 the data will be transfered or simply use icloud.

  • How do you delete all your data permanatly from iCloud?

    My friend just experienced syncing problems, some of his calendar to dos and other appointments simply would not show up, he brought his iPhone over and what do you know, i found out he had iCloud on and syned all his private data with iCloud, basically the world, and he is a public figure.
    Now what i find more interesting is that he says he never set up iCloud or wanted to use becuase of fear its in a cloud, can be hacked, and that he disagrees how apple wants access to all his private files., this is true regardless of words used to assure users to go ahead and put anything online.
    Now he wants to erase everything possible, he also is seeking an attorney to let him know what happened to investigate a possible hack here, since he never set up iCloud at all or knows how.
    Does anyone know how to erase iCloud data at least from the user end?

    If you are seeking to take legal action about anything, the last thing you do is post it on a public forum.

    How do I delete all my information from the I-Cloud?

    Greetings austinfromdellslow,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you would like to store your purchases movies on an external hard drive. To do this, first you will need to download your purchased content from the cloud to the iTunes library on your computer. 
    Download past purchases - Apple Support
    Once your media folder is complete with the downloaded content, you can move that iTunes media folder to your external hard drive using the information in the attached article below.

  • HT1296 How do you sync your iPod to another computer without deleting all the data?

    I recently got a new MacBook Air and I found out that if I sync my iPod touch with my new computer instead of my old one all my data will be deleted.
    How do I sync my iPod without deleting all my information?

    You can't, so you'll need to get all your data, apps and content to the new computer before you allow the sync. See this support article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    You can also download most of your content (the notable exceptions being movies, some of which can be redownloaded if you're in the US, and audiobooks) again from the iTunes Store:
