Before you delete, find out if you'll be able to download the song you deleted again (it depends on where you live). To delete a song:
Tap the Music app.
Tap the Songs category.
Swipe left to right over the song you want to delete.
Tap Delete.

Does iTunes Match stream or download songs?
On a computer, any songs stored in iCloud will stream over the air when played, though you can download them at any time by clicking the iCloud download button. iOS devices will start playing tracks from iCloud as they download and will store them so that you can listen to them later even if you don’t have a network connection. Apple TV only streams songs.
Cheers,

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

  • All of my music was on a hard drive that failed. How do I download them from iTunes match to my new hard drive?

    All of my music was on a hard drive that failed. How do I download them from iTunes match to my new hard drive? I know how to do it one song at a time, but I want to know if there is a way to do it for all 10,000 song files at once?

    There are some recovery programs out there if you google them - many with free trials. I haven't tried them so I have no opinion.Read any professional tech and user reviews you can find before you try one. I have read here in the past that some have worked for people who have posted here. 
    To help in the future, have you considered using Jump Desktop - Remote Desktop? I know it won't solve the problem you're dealing with now (unless notes were taken on your computer.) It's in the app store. It's the #1 paid app in the business category and the reviews are great. It allows you to see anything that's on your computer on your ipad. If you take your notes on your ipad then you might want to email them to yourself, put them on Word in your computer, for example, and then if you need them in class, you remotely connect your ipad to your computer and you will see your notes. This way you won't have to rely so much on the cloud. The explanation would be too long here, but you might want to take a look at it. You can use the free trial on jumpdesk.com and then if it works for you, buy it in the app store. 
    Meanwhile, it's hours since you sent this post. Hopefully others who can help solve your problem who are on this forum now can help you. I hope you get your notes back. Don't give up too quickly.
    Hope this helps.

    The most efficacious way to get your music and other personal data onto your new Mac is to restore it from the backup you made of your old computer. Once that is done you can re-enable iTM on the new Mac and your iPhone.

    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Are any fo the unsyning songs DRM protected?
    What is the detail format of the non-syncing songs?
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • How do I delete duplicate songs on my iPod that do not appear in my iTunes?

    I recently had an interrupted iTunes update that really messed up my iPod Touch. I had to restore it to "factory settings" (it has since been running a lot slower than it was before) and it duplicated over half of my songs, which takes up a significant amount of my storage. Today I tried un-selecting all of my songs in my iTunes Library in hopes of also removing the duplicates, but no such luck - everything was removed from my iPod EXCEPT the duplicates, and as far as can I see there's no way of deleting the extras from my actual iPod.
    I've tried everything I could think of. I even selected "Music" under my iTunes Library, "View", and "Show Duplicate Items". However, not even a single one of the "duplicate" items on this list are the duplicated songs that're stuck on my iPod.
    It's incredibly frustrating and I'm at a loss here. I'm afraid now if I manually go through my list to re-sync all the songs except the duplicate items that it'll just re-duplicate them or something. I can't believe just clicking "yes" on a simple update could reak so much havoc on this little thing.
    Any help is greatly appreciated, the nearest Apple store to me is over an hour drive away and I really don't feel like wasting the gas if the solution is fairly simple.
    Please help & thank you!

  • HT2905 how do i delete duplicated songs on the new version of itunes?

    somehow the new itunes version managed to duplicate ALL my songs.. and i need an easier way to delete all the duplicated songs.. i now have 3,204 songs and most are duplicated three or four times.. i need some help.
    AN EASIER WAY TO DELETE DUPLICATED SONGS ON THE NEW VERSION OF ITUNES

    Select a song. Hit command-I (Mac) or Ctrl-I (Windows). In the pane which opens select the 'Artwork' tab. Drag an image to the space.
    Or, select an album: same keystroke. In the pane which opens is a space labelled 'Artwork' - drag an image there.
