How do you delete songs on ipod

I know nothing about electronics. How do I delete songs that I do not want on ipod?

Wither iOS 5 or iOS 6 you swipe the song to the right and tap the Delete button that appears.
For iOS 7 you swipe to the left and tap Delete/Remove
For earlier iOS yo have to connect to computer and unsync them

  • How can you delete songs off the ipod without deleting songs off your itunes library?

    How can you delete songs off the ipod without deleting songs off your itunes library?  My son's ipod automatically synced all the songs in my library to his ipod which he now wants to get rid of.  Is there a way to delete them all without me having to erase my library?

    Do not select the songs to sync, then sync.

    How do you delete songs or artists

    Good morning drufromottawa,
    In order to remove a song or group of songs from your iPod nano, you need to sync it manually with iTunes on your computer, removing the songs you do not want from the set of songs you want to sync. See this manual for instructions on how to do so -

    Page 16 is the important part for your task.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

    Hi, Mrs.Frankie57. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you want to delete a song from your iOS device on iOS 7, tap Songs, swipe the song from right to left, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

    I have tried to Hilight them and hit Control Delete nothing happens. I tried to just Delete one, but when you hit delete nothing happens.

  • On Ios 7 how do you delete songs directly on the iPhone

    on ios 7 how do you delete songs directly on the phone

    i think i stumbled onto a solution.
    the upgrade to os7 brought a bunch of music into my phone i didn't care to hear anymore.
    (free downloads from the itunes twitter feed..some of them are good, most of them i normally delete immediately)
    i had 3 pesky songs that would not allow me to delete.
    every other song in my library gave me the option to delete, just not the ones i never wanted to hear again.
    ..super frustrating when the song keeps starting over everytime you touch it while scrambling for a delete option.
    they were purchases which i'd hidden.
    i plugged to computer and tried to use iTunes to delete but they did not appear.
    all "show all" options for music and video were off.
    itunes match was off.
    all automatic downloads were off.
    "show all music" was off.
    i logged out of my apple ID for several minutes.
    i think this may have given time for my account to resynchronize the items i didn't want to see anymore.
    i've logged back in and they're still gone.
    i don't care if i hear a new eric clapton song again for the rest of the year thank you.

  • How do you delete songs from an iphone?

    How do you delete songs from an iphone 4?  Some how an album that I bought on itunes doubled the songs on my phone.

    You can do this with iOS5 phones.
    scroll to any song on the list you wish to delete
    Swipe left or right with 1 finger
    a "Delete" button in red will appear
    Same with hiding purchases in your app store app, flick left or right to and tap hide to remove it from the list
    Does it work?

  • How do you delete songs from your ipod???

    How do i delete songs on my ipod

    How you delete content from your iPod depends how you have it 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. Highlight the file and press the delete key on your keyboard, or right click and choose either Clear or Delete, depending on which version of iTunes you are using.
    If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and click on the icon when it shows in the iTunes 7 source list click on the chevron ( the little triangle) to the left of the iPod icon This will display the various icons for the iPod itself, Music, Movies, TV Shows and Playlists. Click on Music and you'll see the traditional song view. 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 song list as displayed in iTunes then press the delete key on your keyboard: Deleting songs or playlists from your iPod

  • MISSING ITUNES SONGS AND HOW CAN YOU PUT SONGS FROM IPOD ONTO ITUNES?

    i opened my itunes one day and all 654 of my songs were GONE. the entire itunes was blank, as if it was newly installed. it wasn't.
    I have an ipod mini, and that still contains the songs since i did not attach my ipod to my computer when i saw that it was empty. my ipod still has 654 songs. But the problem is, that i wont be able to put new songs if my itunes is blank.
    How do you transfer songs from the ipod to the itunes? Usually when you connect the ipod, it automatically updates, so how will i be able to do that. I have new CDs and i want to put some of those songs on my ipod, but i wont be able to do that if my itunes makes my ipod blank. I called apple support but it costs 29 freaking dollars to help me.
    Can anyone help?
      Windows XP  

    okay, well it has been a long time since i have done this, but i will try to do it to the best of my memory.
    uninstall itunes.
    then reinstall it.
    plug your ipod in.
    a box will pop up that says something like would you like to connect your ipod to this library?
    click NO.
    then, on the sidebar there should be a boldfaced DEVICE sign.
    your ipod should show up.
    go to summary
    then check managely manage my music, and then update.
    this means that when you plug your ipod in, you will have to put the music in yourself. this is good because you can pick and choose, and you can delete songs off your ipod if you do not like it anymore. also, you have the ability to play the music on your computer when your ipod is plugged in. hope that helps..

    How you delete content from your iPod depends how you have it set to update:
    If you are updating automatically (syncing) all songs and playlists then delete the files from the iTunes library. In the iTunes Library highlight the file and press the delete key on your keyboard. If you're updating the iPod from a selected playlist delete the song from the playlist and it will remain in the library. Next time you connect they will deleted automatically from your iPod.
    If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and when it shows in the iTunes source list click on the chevron (the little triangle) to the left of the iPod icon This will display the various icons for the iPod itself, Music, Movies, TV Shows and Playlists. Click on Music and you'll see the usual song list. Find the files on your iPod that you want to remove, highlight them and delete directly as above by pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
    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.

  • How do you move songs from ipod to itunes?

    I have songs on my ipod that are not in itunes (only the title appears in the library). How do I move the song so I can play it in itunes too? Thanks!

    Did you move them rename them or anything on the PC? If so this will make ! marks beside the songs and you need to help iTUnes locate these files again.
    If you deleted the files yourself, then you can copy songs off the ipod by first setting it to "Manual update" then using third party software like yamipod http://www.yamipod.com to copy songs off the ipod

  • In iOS 7.04, how do you delete songs?

    When I upgraded to iOS 7.04, I gained a lot of songs that I don't want and would like to delete but  I can't seem to "swipe" them away.  They don't show up in iTunes when I connect the phone to my Mac either.  How do I delete them?

    Is there a little cloud icon next to the song? If so it isn't on your phone, but it's available to be downloaded. If you don't want to see songs not on your phone go to Settings/Music and turn off Show All Music.
