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 do you Remove a photo from the camera roll album without deleting from other albums

    How do you Remove a photo from the camera roll album without deleting from other albums

    If it was originally on the camera roll try this: take another unimportant photo for test purposes, copy it to any special folder you have created within Photos, connect your iPad to your computer, locate it as any other external device, and most likely that Photos folder will be the only thing that will show up, locate the photo, delete it and then sync your iPad.
    If the test photo is gone from the camera roll but still in another folder within the app then you know that the system works so go ahead with the process. I understand that there are other photo apps which might let you achieve your goal much quicker.
    Hope thi helps.

    I have no clue that you mean by it only shows photos from the camera icon. It has to show the photos in the camera roll of the photos app since those are the only photos that you can import via the USB cable.
    There are other ways of transferring photos to a computer, but they involve using third party apps. There are WiFi transfer apps that will do this. DropBox will also let you upload photos to a public folder and then download them to a computer.

  • In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store

    In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store. It would appear that I can only get Genius recommendations from my own library. This was easy in iTunes 10 and enabled me to find lots of good artists I had never heard of.

    I have this same question and all I have found on it is this,
    http://ipod.about.com/od/advanceditunesuse/ss/genius_store.htm
    Basically it seams they got rid of the whole side bar concept of things to make it all more streamline, understandable but I know atleast for myself that genius sugestion for any song is how I found new artists and songs I never knew existed.
    If you go to the Album the go to "In the Store" it will give you a recomendation for that album... not exaclty what you might be looking for but atleast its something, if anyone else has a way to get genius sugestions for individual songs I am all ears and would love to hear about it.

  • HT1386 How do you sync your itunes from the Iphone to the macbook pro?

    How do you sync your itunes from the iphone to the macbook pro? 
    Let's say, I have an Iphone 3GS and it was synced to my older pc (I know...) and it crashed and I can't retrieve my files on there.  I want everything that I have on my 3Gs: photos, videos, music, notes, voice recordings, etc...  Now, I recently upgraded to 4Gs.  I can sync almost everything via icloud but there are files like photos, videos, other music that I cannot sync or for some weird reason it won't work over the cloud.  So I want to move all of those information to my macbook pro (upgraded from pc... yes!).  How do I move everything in my iphone backed up to my itunes in my mac book so that I can sync it to my new 4Gs? 

    I have a 3GS IPhone and have not been able to find Cloud on it anywhere (I was instructed to go to Settings, General, etc). I have also been told I should download update from I Tunes and have not been successful doing that either. I know my I Pad has the Cloud and I am wanting to sync the calendar from the phone to the pad. Any suggestions?

  • How do you delete duplicates but keep the orginials?

    How do you deleter duplicates but keep the originals?

    Mark,
    Since you are having a problem that is not directly related to the original (and old) post (and I say that because  this thread seems to answer the OP's question, but not yours), it woud be better to ask in a new thread.  New threads have a better chance of getting answered, and you can give credit to good answers of your own questions.  I..e., if someone else answers your question in this thread, you cannot give them credit.
    When you pose your new question, it might be good to include a screen shot and a better description of how you have deduced that two projects are identical, along with what you have done to try to find them and where exactly you have looked.

  • How do you clear completed updates from the app store after downloading is complete?

    How do you clear completed updates from the app store after downloading is complete on iOS 7.0.2?

    You don't. It's how things are done now, likely to accommodate those that have auto update turned on.  IT's been said that the updates will just drop off after a period of time but  time will tell on that.

    Open the weather application. You should see 3 white lines at the right below corner and hit that.
    It will show the list of locations. Now just swipe to left on any location and you should find a delete option.
    Hope it helps.

  • How do you sync mail folders from iMac(lion) to my iPad.

    How do you sync mail folders from iMac(lion) to my iPad?

    Is your email account an IMAP account? If not, the folders will not sync.
    If your email account is a POP account, you can create folders and mailboxes in the Mac mail app and those folders will be for local storage and organization on the Mac only. That is a feature of the Mac mail software. Those folders/mailboxes will not sync if you do not have an IMAP account.
