I can't delete songs from my iphone 6 plus

Why can't I delete songs from my IPhone 6 plus?

Hi theresafromwheeling,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you wish to delete songs from your iPhone 6 Plus. Are you trying to do so via syncing with iTunes, or on your iPhone itself? If it is the latter, it may be as simple as swiping left on a song in the list view:
Remove a song that’s been downloaded. Swipe left, then tap Delete. The song is removed from iPhone, but remains available from iCloud.

However, if you have your settings configured to show your iTunes purchases that are not currently downloaded, the song may still appear with a cloud symbol. You can adjust your settings if you wish to hide purchases that have not been downloaded:
View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.

    How can I delete songs from my iPhone 5?

    You swipe left to right on the song, press the red delete button.
    If that does not work, turn off iTunes Match and try again.

  • How can I delete songs from my Iphone music

    How can I delete songs from my music in my Iphone 4

    If you have updated to iOS 7, then you can swipe from from right to left on the song that you want to remove and click the red "delete" button.
    Alternatively, you can select the "Playlists" tab at the bottom of the music app > then select the playlist that contains the song that you want to delete > Click the edit button > Press the red circle with the dash through it next to the song that you want to delete.
    Let me know what iOS version you have if you have not already downloaded iOS 7.
    Hope that helps

  • I can't delete songs from iphone

    For some reason I can't fathom I can't delete music from my iPhone in iTunes. I manually manage my songs and usually I hit the delete button and the album/songs will be removed from my phone. All that happens now when I do this is when I hit the delete button it scrolls to the last album on my phone.
    Also when I try this in iTunes the same thing happens, I can only delete songs/albums from my iTunes library by right clicking and selecting delete (an option I don't have when trying to delete songs from my iPhone)
    Can anybody help? I am running iTunes 10.4 on OS Lion on a Macbook Pro, with iPhone 4. I've tried reinstalling iTunes and retoring my phone from a previous back up. Didn't work.

    You have posted to the iTunes Match forum which your question is not related to. You will get better support responses by posting to either the Using iPhone or the appropriate iTunes forum.

  • How can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out

    how can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out. It doesnt let me delete from itunes either and its just taking up space on my iphone and i cant even listen to the song that are grayed out

    I did this with about 100 songs, and the problem is everytime I connect my iphone with itunes, It will automatically sync back every single song I did delete on the phone by swiping.
    I did search on google and found out that serveral people has this problem. The songs wont delete from itunes library.
    So why do they even make this function if it only deletes the songs for a short time?
    Best regards PelleRPG.

  • How can i delete songs from iphone?

    There are a few songs that aren't being deleted even though they aren't checked and aren't in the playlist in iTunes.  How can I delete these from the iPhone?

    Thank you!  For some reason, I'm able to swipe and delete only the songs from the playlist that was checked.  There were a few songs on the iphone that are not on the checked playlist and when I swipe them, the "delete" button does not appear - and the song begins to play.

  • Why can I delete songs from iPhone if they return when synced??

    Why is there an option to delete songs from iPhone if it dosn't really delete them?? When you delete songs from the iPhone it will put them right back in as soon as you press sync. The only way around it is to manage you music manually witch is allot harder and now when you delete from iPhone it won't sync them back in but you now don't know what you removed. So you won't be able to put them back in unless you put back to auto and put all songs back in. What should happen is when you sync with pc the songs you removed from iPhone should automatically be unmarked so they are not synced back in and you know what you have deleted. Why is this so hard for apple to do!!!!!?????

    Hello audreywisc,
    Songs can be removed from your iPhone by tapping 'Songs,' then swiping the song, then tapping Delete.
    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.

  • How do I delete songs from the iPhone??

    hey guys, I read that in order to delete songs from the iPhone you need to remove the songs from iTunes then re-sync it. I did that but the songs are still in the iPhone and are no longer on iTunes. Songs are all greyed out in iPhone. Please help, thanks.

    Petezta,
    Select the option to "Sync only checkmarked items", and then uncheck them in iTunes.
    Alternatively you can specify specific playlists to sync to the iPhone, and have the items you want to sync in those playlists.
    Hope this helps,

  • How do I delete songs from my iphone that are not on my itunes account?

    How do I delete songs from my iphone that are not on my itunes account?

    You mean music that was not purchased from the iTunes Store?
    If so, that means the music was transferred from your iTunes library on computer via the iTunes sync process - unless you are an iTunes Match subscriber.
    Music transferred from your computer can be removed the same way - via the iTunes sync process or you should be able to delete individual songs direct from the iPhone.

  • Deleting songs from my iPhone

    Hi, so I have a bit of a complicated scenario that I hope someone can help me with.
    I have 8GB iPhone and a 60GB iPod. Both are sharing the same music library.
    My iPod synchronizes all songs in my library (about 30gb). But I only want to have a small subset of the songs stored on my iPhone at any given time.
    I had hoped to do this by only synchronizing selected playlists to the iPhone so that as songs are added or deleted from the playlist they would get deleted from the iPhone as weill.
    But once I have uploaded the songs from Playlist A to the iPhone and then change some of the songs in that playlist I have discovered that the new songs are added to the iPhone.. but the removed songs are not deleted.
    I really do not want to remove the songs from my iTunes library as that will cause the songs to be deleted from my iPod as well.
    Is there anyway to delete songs from the iPhone without deleting from the music library?
    Thanks
    Mark

    I sync by playlist and the playlist in my iphone matches the playlist in my itunes. If I delete a song from the playlist in itunes, the next time I sync the song gone from iphone as well.

  • 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?

  • Can't delete song from ipod touch that is not in my library

    Can't delete song from ipod touch that is not in my library

    Monty's solution will work if you have left the songs in one of your playlists. Another idea if that doesn't work is to check your iTunes list for that iPod. Check at the very bottom beneath the albums, artist,s and other content to add to your iPod, and be sure that you don't have individual songs selected to be added as well. If you do, eliminate them from that bottom list, and you should be fine.
