I deleted music off my iTunes that I don't want - Now how do I sync it up with my iTunes and delete them off of the iPod too?

I deleted random bands and certain songs that I no longer wish to have on my iTunes or my iPod. So, they're all off of my iTunes, but still on my iPod. How do I delete only the items on my iPod that are no longer on my iTunes? Is there a way to sync them so ONLY what is on my iTunes appears on my iPod?

If you are synching all music that you have in iTunes on your computer then, when you next sync, any music not in iTunes but on the iPod should be removed.

    My children just got iPods touch. I registered them on my account so they can have acces to my I tunes Acc. Now they have all my list of contacts receive my messages have my music my pics, also when they install an app like pandora they have all my stations, things that they don't want. How can I fix this.

    As for iMessage, you do  Settings -> Messages (scroll down) -> where it says iMessage, turn the switch to off.
    As for pictures, you do Settings -> iCloud -> Photo Stream -> My Photo Stream -> turn switch off.
    As for apps, you do Settings -> iTunes & App Stores (scroll down alot) -> Music, Apps, Books are all swtiched off.
    If you want to the delete the music, you go onto the music app and slide your finger from right to left on the song.

  • How do I sync my iPad with my iTunes without it trying to put my iPod apps on the iPad?  I don't want to make separate accounts because then the apps that I want on both would have to be paid for twice.

    How do I sync my iPad with my iTunes without it trying to put my iPod apps on the iPad?  I don't want to make separate accounts because then the apps that I want on both would have to be paid for twice.

    No, they won't. Just create a second profile in iTunes for the iPad. You can then select only what you want synced to it completely separate from your iPod.

  • My husband and I are using the same computer. He has a ton of songs in iTunes that I don't want...but when I sync my iPod I get all of his songs too. Is there a way of setting up another ITunes account without having to untick all of the ton songs iTunes

    My husband has a ton of songs in iTunes that I don't want on my iPod nano. Is there a way to set up a separate account on the same computer in iTunes? Do I have to un-tick all of his songs (would take forever!! And then he would have to tick them again)....when we sync our iPods?

    No. Its not possible.
    Alternatively, create another user account in your computer. Install iTunes in that account with the library you wish to sync.

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

    how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    The same way you would sync with any other version of iTunes.
    Connect the device. 
    Select the device.
    Select Sync.
    In the new version of iTunes, the sidebar is disabled by default.  With a device connected, it will be listed in the upper right hand corner.
    If you want the side bar back, type Cntrl + S.

    Can I use iTunes Match without Genius turned on?  Genius is fine but Match then sends me additional music to my Libary that I don't want

    Without a computer you will not be able to do any managing of the music in the cloud. There is no way to edit any metadata on an iOS device.
    Also, iTunes Match is not a backup service and should not be relied up as such. With no computer you will not have any backups of your music.

  • My storage on my iCloud is almost full, and I turned off some apps that I don't want to be backed up. So if I press the button delete back up, is it going to delete all of the apps that I'm backing up, or just the ones that I turned off?

    I keep on getting E-mails that notifies me that my storage is almost full. I don't want to press that button until my question has been answered.

    It will delete the entire backup, so you'll have to back up again after doing this.  The new backup will only contain the apps (and other data) that you have selected and omit the ones you turned off.

  • I have an iPad2 and I can't delete some apps I downloaded that I don't want.  I can get the apps lto wiggle, but there is no X in the upper left corner for deletion.  Any help is much appreciated.

    I have an iPad2 and I can't delete some apps I was downloading but froze.  I can get the apps to wiggle, but there is no X in the upper left corner for deletion. I have tried re-setting and didn't work. Help will be appreciated.

    See if anything here helps.
    If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
    Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • How do I delete songs from my playlist that I don't want and didn't download

    I have 5 songs on my playlist for iTunes that I did not download and don't want them, but don't know how to delete. Tried swiping from left to right but when I push delete I just get the cloud. Does anyone know how to get rid of these from my playlist?

    Hello nothappy14,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to delete a song.  The cloud icon to the right of the song indicates the song is being streamed from iTunes in the Cloud and not actually on your device.  Because they are not on your device, they can't be deleted, but you can choose to hide these songs so that they don't appear on your iPhone.
    You can hide the song by accessing the iTunes Store on the computer:
    To hide your purchases
    Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
    From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
    Go to the iTunes Store.
    Click Purchased from the Quick Links section on the right side of the iTunes Store.
    Choose a content type by clicking on Music, TV Shows, Apps, or Books from top.
    Hover your cursor over the item you want to hide.
    You will see an "X" either to the right or left top corner of the item.
    Click the "X" to hide that item. A confirmation dialog will appear once you click the "X."

    You will need to quit and relaunch the Music app on your iPhone after hiding the purchase on your computer before seeing the changes.  Close the Music app using the following steps:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app's preview up to close it.

  • My wife wants my music on her iphone, how do I sync her phone with my itunes library without her losing all of her contacts?

    My wife wants my music on her iphone, i am worried about syncing her phone to my itunes and her losing all of her contacts.  Should I not be worried?  How should I proceed?

    She should not sync her phone to a different iTunes library.  Once solution is to set up Home Sharing, then in iTunes on her computer drag and drop the music from your library to hers. Then she can sync this music from her own iTunes library to her phone.  (She will need to authorize her computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase any purchased music in order to sync it to her phone.)  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3819, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4620.

  • How can I sync my iPhone with another iTunes Library, but be able to keep my songs?

    I logged onto my computer and all my iTunes music was suddenly gone. It was almost like it had deleted itself. Now I can't find the same Library I was using before and can't download music. If I try to sync it to another computer, it will delete all the songs i have now.

    I had the same issue with a withdrawn app. Just copy all the .app files from the old directory to somewhere on the new machine, then drag them onto the Application menu item on the left hand side and iTunes will import them as long as you've already registered iTunes for the same account.
    Job done! Worked a treat for me - including the app that wasn't available any more.....
