HT204074 Don't have iTunes Match so apparently I can't delete music from iCloud?

How do I delete songs from the iCloud when I don't use Music Match? Somehow, songs I don't want just automatically add themselves to my iPhone after I've manually added only songs I want to be on it... One particular song (I purchased by mistake) is no longer my iTunes library but keeps being added back.
Please Help!!!

You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, but you should be able to hide songs so that they don't show in the Purchased tab for redownloading (that also hide them from the Music app if you have Settings > Music > Show All Music 'on') : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
(For info you've posted in the Using iPad forum.)

    if the copy files ... when adding option is checkmarked in iTunes > preferences > advanced, files you transfer via homesharing are copied permanently to the other library.

    How i can recover deleted files from icloud,,I had a backup copy on iCloud for whatsapp application and I lost it,,I need bring it back what I have to do

    You can't download pictures from iCloud by logging into icloud.com.  If you deleted pictures from camera roll AND photo stream, the only possibility is preforming a restore from an iCloud backup, assuming the backup has the pictures in it.  (Many users have been unable to restore and get back their pictures.)
    If the restore doesn't have all the pictures, then they are gone.
    In the future, use photo stream to sync photos from an iPhone to a computer, then copy the photos on the computer from the photo stream album into a permanent album.  Photo stream pics stay there only for 30 days, and only up to 1000 photos are stored.  Don't use photo stream as a storage medium, it's only for copying photos from one device to another.  Always copy (either via USB cable or photo stream) to a computer and then move to an album.

  • If I have home sharing can I delete music from my IPad without deleting it from my other devices such as IPhone and IPod?

    If I have Home Sharing enabled, can I delete music from my IPad without deleting it from my IPhone and IPod?

    Home sharing has no effect on deleting music from your iPad. If you delete music on your iPad it will have no effect on your other iDevices.
    You cannot add or delete music with home sharing anyway. You can only share what is on one library on another device.

  • Don't have ITunes Match but I can't delete downloaded songs

    So I DO NOT have iTunes Match however my music app had iCloud songs that I could download since some were not on my iPhone. I didn't want any of them but accidentally downloaded a few and now I can't get rid of them by swiping left in the app. I turned off show all music so I wouldn't download anymore. Also I thought I could delete them from my library on my computer but they don't show up. I'm running iOS 7 if that helps at all. Thanks

    You are probably thinking about Apple's USB Power Adapter Takeback Program.
    It ended October 2013, and they weren't free anyway.

  • I don't have much space in my ipod, can I put music in the Cloud for my entertainment?

    I don't have much space on my iphone so I bought some extra space in the cloud so I could use the space in the phone for business.  My question is can I use some of the cloud space for entertainment, I want to record some music in it?

    The only way you can use iCloud to free up space on your device is by subscribing to iTunes Match.  If you do, your music library would be available through iCloud without having to store all of it on your phone.  (See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/.)
    Music and other purchased media is also availble to redownload from the iTunes store (in many countries), however it's best to keep it in your iTunes library if you're going to delete it from your device because it may no longer be available to redownload if you rely on the iTunes store to "store" your purchased media.  (See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.)
    If you purchased the extra storage by mistake thinking you could use it for this purpose, you may be able to get a refund by calling the Apple online store (1-800-MYAPPLE in the U.S.).

  • HT4914 can i delete music from my computer once it's in itunes match cloud?

    once all my music has been uploaded to the cloud as part of itunes match, can i delete the actual files off of my computer?

    Hi fasking,
    If you take a look at the following article, there should be an option when deleting the local file for whether or not you want to delete the copy on iCloud:
    iTunes Store: How to delete songs from iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4915
    To delete an item from iCloud in iTunes
    From a computer with iTunes Match enabled, open iTunes 10.5.1 or later on your computer. You can download the latest version of iTunes here.
    Click Music on the left side of iTunes.
    Select the item you would like to delete. Right-click the item and then choose Delete.
    You will be asked to confirm this action.
    If the item you want to delete exists in iTunes on your computer as well as in iCloud, click the checkbox to also delete the item from iCloud.
    It's also always a good idea to have a local backup of any files you are concerned about keeping:

  • Can't delete music from iTunes Match

    Hi All,
    I'm having trouble deleting Music from the iTunes Match, I have followed this guide iTunes Store: How to delete songs from iCloud - Apple Support with no luck.
    I'm using iTunes version 12.0.1.26.
    After I delete all my music, all the music is still visible on my iPhone... I've tried to click the update iTunes Match option and all the music appears in my library in iTunes again.
    I have tried:
    Signing out and in again.
    Turning iTunes Match off and on again.
    Deleting the iTunes library folder and adding a new one.
    Clearing the cache.
    De-authorising all devices and re-authorising them.
    Anyone got any ideas?

    I mean mark as deleted... It seems to have sorted it's self out now.

  • How can I delete music from my iPhone 4 (iOS7) when I manually manage the music in iTunes, but it has no affect on my phone's music library?

         I'm attempting to delete music from my iPhone 4 (iOS7). When I connect it to iTunes, and the music shows up, I delete the music from the phone. When I disconnect the phone, the music is still there. The same thing happens if I try to sync the phone before disconnecting. I have "manually manage music" checked. Additionally, when I reconnect my iPhone, the music I "deleted" from it when it was previously connected to iTunes no longer appears, preventing me from trying to delete it again.
    I know I can swipe left on each song to delete it on my phone, and I have been, but that takes a long time when you're trying to delete everything on your iPhone.
    Suggestions?

  • Can i delet music from my itunes but not from my ipod 120gb ipod

    is there any way to delet music from my itunes library without the next time i attach my ipod 120gb it deleting it from my ipod because i have just run out of space on my hard drive and need to clear some space to put more music on my ipod. can any one help me?

    Yes, however it's not necessarily a good idea to have the iPod holding the only copy of your media. It can become corrupt in which case it should be restored which involves deleting & replacing the contents. It may also easily be damaged, lost or stolen.
    With this in mind, if you only delete media for which you have suitable backups, there are two possible apporaches. First you can switch to manually managing your music. Once you have transfered a file to the iPod you can delete the original from iTunes & your hard drive. There are certain benefits from automatic sysncing however which can be maintained with a different approach. You can delete original material from your hard-drive, leaving the entry in iTunes alone. When you come to sync iTunes will issue an error message to the effect that it cannot sync the missing files, *but it will not remove the exisitng copy on the iPod*. You can also suppress this error message.
    In the long run however I would recommend that if space is becoming an issue you purchase an external drive and move your libray out to it. These are very affordable and would provide space to backup other important documents.

  • Why are my non-iTunes purchased songs in my iCloud? I don't have iTunes Match.

    I have never used or purchased iTunes Match. How did my music library wind up in my iCloud? I can see them there as being in the iCloud on my iPhone.
    Thanks

    Not sure why this is happening and it is a pain. Once the Purchased list sorted by 'date added' go to the left most column and select the top - in my Purchased list the new items go to the bottom and I drag them back up to the top position.

  • Is anybody out there have iTunes Match problems? Such as: trades your music that you did not purchase from iTunes into edited versions of a song.

    This is very annoying and utterly frustrating

    At the moment, you have two options as far as I know.
    1. Just live with the issue until Apple resolve it.
    2. Turn off iTunes Match. You can just turn it off on specific devices and sync in the old way via USB.
    I'm afraid that is it really.

  • TS1387 Can't get music from icloud onto iphone4--do not have enough permissions

    I have an Iphone 4.  I am trying to put the music library from my icloud onto my iphone.  Had no trouble doing this with my ipad.  But, when I try to do this, syncing through my PC (windows 7), I get the message "Jane's Iphone will not sync because you do not have enough access privileges for this operation" It's recommended to delete the "iphone cache" in my picture library, but there is no iphone cache folder in my picture library.  Why won't my itunes load to my phone?  Why won't my iphone sync?  Any ideas? Thanks.

    Can anyone help? Basically, any photos I send to iCloud are not going to my iPad now since updating. Would appreciate any advice please.
    thanks
