I can't get music and audiobooks off my Iphone.

I recently downloaded a song and an audiobook directly to my iphone.  I want them off my iphone, but I cant figure out how to do it.  Unchecking and even deleting them from my i-tunes on my computer doesn't work.  My iphone just replaces it on my itunes on my computer automatically every time i sync.  I dont have enough room on my iphone to keep this stuff on the phone.  What do I do to get rid of it?

Ok, to kinda clarify, I just bought this new cd and i downloaded it onto my computer and now I'm trying to download it onto my iPhone! But syncing wont work because it will delete all my other music on my phone! And when I try to drag the cd to my phone it comes up with a red circle with a line through it!! Is there a way to manually manage my music without deleting all the music already on my phone that's not on my computer??

  • Can i send music and audiobook to an ipod without syncing?

    I am wanting to get my newly blind grandmother, who lives across the country from me, an ipod so she can listen to music and audiobooks. Her facility caregivers can start and stop the music and books, but there is no way to sync the ipod to upload new material after I send it to her. I will upload music initially. But after it's with her is there a way I can a) send new music and b) more importantly, get her access to books?? e.g. If I used the audible.com app, will it magically send the books to her ipod without plugging into a computer (like the kindle does?). Any other ideas??
    Thanks.

    - You can purchase and redownload audio.com books on the iPod..  Thus you know the username and password for the account you can purchase them on a computer and or other place and she or someone else can redownload it on her iPod. The audio.com books will show on her device (if signed into the account tht purchased them) so it is easy to redownload.

    - Music is harder. To get music into the iPod's music app you either have to sync (via USB or wif (have to be on the same network so you can't do it remotely) or purchase the music from iTunes. If y ouse the same iTunes account, she can redownload iTunes purchases.

  • The hard drive on my MacBook crashed is there anyway to get my music and pictures off my iPhone?

    The hard drive on my MacBook crashed is there anyway to get my music and pictures off my iPhone?

    Do you have the computer working again? If so, sync the iPhone to the computer, and in iPhoto it should show up as a 'camera' and you can import the photos from there. You can also open iTunes and transfer the music from the iPhone to your iTunes library.

  • Getting music and playlists off an ipod

    Is there a way to get the music and playlists back off an ipod and back on to your computer with out removing or changing your current itunes music or playlists ?
    Thanks
    Matt

    hi, have you tried a program called ipodAccess or xplay 2 to take out your songs and playlists? xplay has like a 30 day trial but meanwhile you can use it to copy out all your songs.

  • How do I get music and such off of iPod after hard drive crash?

    OK, lets say I had to install a new hard drive, or get new computer. I have all this stuff on my iPod... how can I get it into the new iTunes library on new computer?

    There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

    SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)

    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content only from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay:

  • Best program for getting music and video off my iPod?

    My hard drive crashed and now the only place I have a lot of my music and videos is my 160 gig ipod classic.  I'd like to get it off my ipod and onto my Macbook Pro.

    iTunes & Finder might be all you need. Look at the link at bottom of the table in this user tip: Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Can't remove music and video from my iPhone

    When I try to remove music from my iphone by synching only checked items, most of the unchecked items stay on my iPhone
    I recently purchased some TV shows for my iPhone using WiiFi. Now I can't get them off my iPhone. I tried transferring purchases from my iPhone. That seemed to work in that they showed up in iTunes and I could uncheck them. But when I unchecked them and synched it didn't remove them from my iPhone. So I've got about 4 GBs of space used on my iPhone by video I don't want.
    I'm at the latest version of iTunes and the latest version of iOS.

    No idea, since you provide no info at all about your issue.

  • Can't get a duplicate album off my Iphone?

    So the other day I downloaded an album off Itunes and then synced my Iphone to put it on. When I checked it the next day, the album had a double of every song. Usually this isn't a problem and I just delete the duplicates and sync it again. But when I went to my Itunes, there wasn't any duplicates. I synced my phone, and there still weren't any in Itunes, only my phone. I then unchecked the songs, and then the duplicates dissapeared, but the album was still on my Iphone. It appears this album is stuck on my Iphone and I have no idea how to get it off...this is also the case for a few other songs I bought that same night. Any idea how to get them off or what is going on? thanks!

    First you have to know which calendar your client saved the event to. Usually by default it saves to the native Calendar app. If that is the case, he should be able to log into iCloud and delete the event (decline the invitation) from there. If your client saved the event to an external calendar that he has synched to his iPhone (Yahoo, Google, etc.) he may be able to delete it or decline it from there, which should in turn remove it from the device.
    The logic here is that only the creator of the event invitation can edit the event details, so that if they do that, all of the recipients of the invitation will get the updated information automatically. I agree it leaves a lot to be desired to stick things on people's calendars that they can't at the very least just simply delete if not edit. I will no longer accept invitations directly on my device in order to avoid this. I will add the event to my calendar manually from now on.

  • Help! I can't delete music or videos off my iPhone! iOS 8.0.2

    I have an iPhone 5s that I updated to iOS 8 and my storage is full and I can't delete any music or videos off of it.  I turned off iTunes Match, turned off Show All Videos and Show All Music and try swiping the remaining videos and music off but it won't even swipe to show delete.  Went to Usage --> Manage Storage and Music or Videos won't even show up there, so I can't delete from there either.  I've even tried resetting all the settings twice. No luck. I updated to iOS 8.0.2 and the same issue is happening.  Please help!

    I have been dealing with this same problem on both my iPhone and iPad ever since iOS 8 was released. I can't remove any music or videos. I was hoping that with iOS 8.1 this issue would be resolved, but no. Going to Usage -> Manage Storage still doesn't provide access to Video like it used to in iOS 7 and earlier versions. Selecting Manage Storage gives a list of items you can delete files from but not Video. Apple needs to return the Video (or Music) option to Manage Storage to users can clear their storage.
    As it stands, the only way I have been able to clear my storage once it is full after watching several TV show episodes or movies bought on iTunes on my iPad is to restore it as a new iPad. This is ridiculous. There must be an easier way to clear storage of videos.
    Thanks for any help!

  • Getting music and files off a very old Mac issue

    Hi, my Mac is pretty old and cannot update from iTunes 7 upwards. I really need to get all my music off iTunes but the WD hard drive won't even register in the profiler. I can't home share onto another system so what is the best solution?

    Could you get the model number of the old PowerMac? 
    At some stage (About 1995) Apple started using IDE rather than SCSI hard drives. If it's an IDE drive then the simple solution is to take the hard drive out of the PowerMac and install it in a Firewire Hard Disk Enclosure.
    kind regards

  • I recently bought an IPhone 4s and activated it through my husbands ITunes account.  Now my husbands email address is on my phone when I attempt to access Apple.  How can I get his email address off my IPhone so I can replace it with mine?

    I recently bought an IPhone 4S.  My husband activated it for me through his ITunes account.  Subsequently, I created my own Apple account.  Here is the problem.  When I attempt to access ITunes or Apple apps my phone still shows my husbands email address and requests his password.  I want to get that changed so it reflects my email address and password but can't seem to do so through the settings mode.

  • I changed email address, i updated in the manage apple id page, saved info but I cannot get into my iphone because the old email address keep showing up.  How can I get the old address off my iphone??

    help me please to remove my old email address on my iphone.  I already changed the address on the apple id page, but it hasn't tranferred to the phone and I cannot use my iphone.  My head is about to explode! 

    Welcome to the Apple community JB.
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
