iCloud is stopping me from deleting music off of my iTunes

iCloud has nothing to do with iTunes, why don't you tell us what is happening rather than why you think it is happening.

TS4002 stop email from deletion when deleted on another device

how to stop email from deletion when deleted on another device.

With IMAP - the email protocol the iCloud uses - the messages live on the server and are read from there by your devices. Think of it as being like webmail and it makes sense. Therefore when your wife deletes a message she is actually deleting it from the server, which is why you see it as deleted. You can't alter this; it's inherent in the system.
The only workaround is to sort out a method whereby emails don't get deleted until both of you have seen them - for example she could move them to another folder and you could then read them there and delete them (so their presence in that folder always means that the other person has seen them).

Just downloaded ios7 and my phone wont let me delete music off of it

my phone isnt letting me delete music off of it

Hey jan131,
Thanks for the question. With iOS 7, you can delete a song by doing the following:
Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
via page 62 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Please note that if you have "Show All Music" enabled in Settings > iTunes & App Store, the above will delete the song from your device, but it will still appear available (with a cloud symbol to re-download).
Thanks,
Matt M.

How do I delete music off of my iPhone to get more storage space?

I want to delete music off of my iPhone to free up storage space. I want the music completely off and no iCloud download next to the music so I don't use data as well.

To delete you songs in iPod and not in iTunes library, you have to put iTunes Device sync to Manually Manage ticked as below,
the example, is for iPod Touch, but applicable to iPod Classic.
To sync your content manually:
Connect your iPod, iPhone, or iPad to your computer and select your device in iTunes (below Devices)
Click the Summary button and select “Manually manage music and videos” (below Options).
Select a category (below Library).
Do any of the following:
To add items to your device, drag videos, playlists, artists, genres, and albums to your iPod, iPhone, or iPad (below Devices).
To delete a song or selection of songs from your device, select the song/s and press the Delete key.Removing a song from your device doesn’t delete it from your iTunes library.
Before you disconnect your device, click the Eject button .
Have a nice day

ITunes will not allow me to delete music off of my iPhone, is there a way to fix this?

I just updated my hard drive, and haven't synced my phone to my laptop in a while because it wasn't working until now. Now, I'm trying to delete music off of my phone/generally manage it but when I left click on a song it only gives me about 4 options, none of them are delete.

To delete a track from your phone (you are in the 'on my device' music section ?) then just select/highlight the track and press the delete button on your keyboard.

How can i delete music off of my ipad 2, how can i delete music off of my ipad 2

I have an ipad 2 it has software vision 4.3.2 how can i delete music off of it. it wont let me when i attach it to my computer and it wont delete directly from the ipad

If its to save room I wouldn't drag the files to the trash. That would get rid of them for good. I know you said you can't by computer, if your syncing with that computer, under music when it's connected, don't sync full library. Go through and select the certain songs you want. If its to delete just off your iPad because you don't have a comp read what ana posted.

HT1535 is there a way of deleting music off my devise with out signing in to i-tunes on a pc?

Is there a way of deleting music off my devise with out signing in to i-tunes on pc?

Swipe from right to left on any song to delete from the device.
Same works for Albums and Playlists.

Trouble deleting music off Iphone

I trouble deleting music off iPhone and iPod through iTunes. Can't access anything on it.

Now click on "Music" on the top left under "Library", all of your songs will appear to the right. There is a box to the left of every song. If it is checked, when you sync it will be transferred to your phone. To delete a song from your phone, uncheck the box next to it. When you have unchecked all the songs you want to delete from your phone, click on the Sync botton on the bottom right. When your phone finishes syncing the unchecked songs should be deleted from your phone.
To summarize: checked songs are synced to your phone when you sync, unchecked songs are deleted from your phone when you sync.
Edit: When you are done unchecking the songs you don't want on your phone, click on the name of your phone again on the left sidebar, then click the Sync button on the bottom right.

HT4915 do i have to pay for i match to be able to delete music off my i cloud account and off my phone

Hi i'm trying to figuer out how to delete music off my phone and off my icould account.
so i type all that in the search engine .. and all i can find is that i need to turn iMatch on in my iTunes account ..
so when i hit the iMatch button .. it ask me to subcribe to iMatch and subcribing cost 25 bucks .. Really?
do i really really have to pay 25 bucks a month to be able to delete stuff off my phone ;o/
i'm sure i'm totally doing some thing wrong.. any help would be awesome.

iTunes Match is an annual fee, not monthly : http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/
You can hide purchased music from the Purchased links and cloud via your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If you want to delete music from your phone (assuming that they are downloaded and not only in the cloud) then you can delete individual tracks directly on it by swiping/dragging across a track's name from right-to-left on the Songs screen - that should reveal a Delete button to its right. If the tracks are only in the cloud (i.e. they have a cloud icon next to them in the Music app) then you can turn that off via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music (under the 'show all' heading) 'off'
If you want to delete a number of tracks and/or albums/artists then connect the phone to your computer, and if you have the left-hand sidebar enabled on your computer's iTunes (you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC) select Music underneath the phone 'device'
And use the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and delete the tracks. Or if you are automatically syncing music change your music sync options via its Music tab

Deleting music off iphone

Can I delete music off my phone from itunes but still have it stored somewhere on itunes or the cloud so I can access it again? I need to get it off my phone for space but still want it longterm on intunes somewhere so I can access it again and re-download it to my phone at another time. Can this be done?

Hi mjtacey13,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If the music on your iPhone was purchased from the iTunes Store, you can redownload it at any time.
If the music is from your iTunes library, you can change your preferences in iTunes to sync only the songs you want manually.
It's always a good idea to first back up your iPhone before making an major changes:

The links below will more detailed information:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1535
iPhone, iPad, and iPod: Understanding capacity
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1867
To remove all of the music on your iPhone, tap Settings > General > Usage >
Tap on Music, tap Edit in the top right corner, tap on the red circle with the minus sign to the left of All Music, tap the red Delete button, tap Done.
Hope this helps ...

Why can't I delete music off of my iphone 5?

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to delete music off of my phone. It has all the new updates.
Normally what I do is plug my phone into my macbook and then right click and click delete under the music option. But when I right click there is no delete option at all.
Also, you cannot swipe left to right on your phone and delete it that way either. I've done everything everyone has suggested on here. Is there an actual apple support tech that can help us? I have unwanted songs taking up space. Why is there no delete option at all? That makes no sense!

I've figured it out. Go to the Music tab when you plug your phone in, and scroll all the way down. There should be a section called "Manually Added Songs", and when you highlight a song, there's a "Remove" button that you can use. Good luck!

Deleting music off iphone while connected to itunes

for some reason i cant not delete music off my iphone when its connected to itunes on my laptop. was wondering whats the issue?

You're welcome.
There is only one kind.
There is a Reset and a Restore.
You Reset an iPhone by pressing and holding the Home button and Sleep/Wake or On/Off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so.
A Reset does not affect any data or settings. I Reset my iPhone once a week or so regardless if needed or not and I power my iPhone off and on first thing each morning.
