HT1535 Removing music from iPad

I Share an iTunes account with my husband and somehow his purchased music has ended up on my iPad.  I cannot get rid of it.  I have deleted it, but it still resides on the iPad.  I have turned of the "show all music" button, I have turned off the "automatically download music" button, and still the music sits on my iPad.  The delete button doesn't work because the music has already been deleted, but it won't leave.
how do I get rid of it?

Does each song have a little cloud icon on it?
This is music in your Itunes account, but not on your iPad.
It also will not play from your iPad.
To get rid of those songs, is a dumb 2 step process.
Tap the cloud icon and download each song.
Then delete each song by pulling right to left and tap delete.

  • How do I remove music from ipad

    I am having trouble removing music from my iPad that I synced from my computer

    Hi Rebecca31,
    What happens when you try to delete the music in your Music App?
    If I am viewing the songs by "Songs" list, I can just swipe left to right on the song listing and a red Delete button appears on the right.  (Note that doen't happen when viewing in Playlists.)
    If viewing as Artists or Album, I can touch and hold on a particular artist or album which brings up the little "x" icon similar to deleting an app.  If I don't want to delete all af that artist I can tap the Artist (or Album) to see the included song list then swipe across individual songs to delete them as above.
    Edit, if I'm in a Playlist, the swipe option doesn't work, but there is an "Edit" button in the upper right.  Note that still won't delete the actual music, but allows you to modify, add or remove songs from the playlist.

  • Cannot remove music from iPad. Why?

    I need to remove music from my iPad to create space to import movies. However, via iTunes/Sync even though I uncheck the Sync Music box I find that the music remains on my iPad. What am I doing wrong?

    It should remove the music once you click on your phone in the left pane and go to the music tab at the top of the iTunes screen. I have tried this myself just now with my iPhone 4S. Once I deselected sync all music, the capacity bar at the bottom changed to show no music. If I had selected sync, all my music would have been removed from my phone.
    Since you removed the music from directly from the phone and not iTunes, once you connect to iTunes and sync, the same music will be synced back onto the phone.
    Try playing with the settings and see what you come up with. Also, try closing iTunes and restart your computer amd see if this fixes things.

  • Remove music from iPad

    Been trying to remove music (albums) from iPad 2,  was set  as selected playlists & unticked albums(no songs shown) then synced on Macbook, but items still remained in iPad after Syncing;  was originally trying to unsync a compilation album that showed tracks by artist separately; not as one album.
    In settings, turned off "Show all music" , hadn't used "iTunes match"  & ticked & unticked "Manually manage music & videos"
    Tried syncing several times & turned iPad off & on
    Still albums remained on iPad.
    Out of ideas.
    Thanks

    Music App>Songs
    Swipe from left to right to delete.

  • Can remove music from iPad via iTunes, but space remains consumed

    Hi,
    I'm trying to remove music & photos from my iPad, so I can make space to backup my GoodNotes files. I have ~3gb free, but apparently this isn't enough. So, I managed to delete all of the music from my iPad via iTunes, and it is now completely removed off of my iPad. However, there is still ~3gb free. The space the music consumed is still not free and I don't know why.
    Attached is a screen shot of the issue. As you can see, all of the music has been deleted, but the bottom bar still dedicates that amount of space to 'audio.' There are no songs in the music heading under 'On My Device' either. I managed to make it so that the bar showed 8gb of free space, but when I synced nothing changed and 3gb was still all that was free.
    What do I do? I don't know if my GoodNotes files will remain intact if I restore my iPad.
    Thanks in advance.

    iTunes no longer says my space is consumed by audio. I did a software update and now most of the space is in the 'other' section.
    I usually try to back up GoodNotes to Google Drive, and no, there are no files in the file sharing area on iTunes. The issue with backing up the GoodNotes files is that it gets maybe 30 minutes into the process and then I get a message to say that there is no more space left to continue. Storage usage says GoodNotes consumes 3gb of space on its own, but I don't believe it is accurate.
    I really don't know what to do, and these files are important for my university work, so I'm hesitant to risk losing them.

  • HT1535 Moving music from iPad and iPod to iTunes on a new computer

    My boyfriend doesn't have a computer anymore so he set his iPad up through his iTunes account.  Can he log into iTunes from my computer to update it without losing his stuff.  It asks us if we want to reset his iPad and the same with his iPod touch, but he doesn't want to lose all his music.

    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    For non-iTunes music (such as CDs or third-party), follow through this:

    Hope this helps.

  • How to remove songs from ipad ios 5.1.1?

    My kids loaded songs on my ipad with their accounts.  Every time I log on I am prompted for their Apple IDs.  I want to remove the songs.  How??

    Hi Zimmer1956, 
    The process of deleting songs on your iPhone and iPad are the same by going to the songs that you do not want and swiping left over the song to bring up the delete option. Take a look at the article below for more information on how to remove music from your devices.

    I read your post, and it sounds as though you'd like to learn more about iTunes syncing. I have linked to an article that will instruct you on that:

  • HT204291 music from ipad not playing on apple tv

    music from ipad not playing on apple tv? Videos are, but music is not.

    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
        1.    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
        2.    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
        3.    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
        4.    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
        5.    Restart your router.
        6.    Restart your mobile device.

  • How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone

    If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up. 
    You should have a look in:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/Extensions
    You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    iTunes match won't automatically remove content from your computer, if you want to do that you will need to do it manually yourself.
