  • How can I remove songs from my iphone but they still stay in my library

    I have set up my music to sync only checked items, however, all the songs are still on my iphone.  I only want certain songs on my phone, but it still shows several songs that I have not checked off.  How do I remove songs from my iphone but they still will stay in my library. 

    What you need to do is go to music, and slide your finger to the right on the song you want to remove from your device. The song will still show in the music app but will have a cloud with an arrow beside it and you would have to re-download the song to your device to be able to listen to it. And also, this will only take the song off your device and it won't be removed from your library on iTunes. I hope this helps!

  • TS3202 How do I remove songs from my iPad which are not on my computer library. Regular synching has not removed these two songs from my iPad. These songs are no longer in my library but still on iPad !!! Any solutions ???

    How do I remove songs from my iPad which are no longer present in my library. Normal synching works for everything else except two songs ' stuck' on my iPad ??  Any solutions. ????  Thanks.

    You can remove them manually on the device. Swipe across the track to bring up a delete button.

    I downloaded a song and it can up in my music library but it won't play the song

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the track from the Music app on your iPad and redownload it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app (or via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes).
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if the re-downloaded version also doesn't works then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • How do I remove songs from Iphone 5s I didn't even put on

    I want to remove songs from a artist i didn't even asked to put on my Iphone 5s

    Do they have a cloud beside them? If they do, they are not on the device, they are just showing up there so you can re-download them from the Cloud.
    If you want them to not show, go into Settings > Music and turn off Show All Music

  • How do I remove songs from my device and leave it in iCloud?

    I set up iCloud match on my PC and iPhone 4s. How do I remove songs on my phone to buy more space for other things? Also, I understand that my iTunes library is matched with better quality versions in the cloud. How can I replace poor quality songs with these better ones?

    Also, I understand that my iTunes library is matched with better quality versions in the cloud.
    That is not quite true.  When iTunes Match is able to match a song, it matches it to the version sold in the iTunes Store, which is in AAC/256 format.  That may be better or worse than what you already have.
    How can I replace poor quality songs with these better ones?
    If you wish to replace your current version with the matched version, just delete the current one from your iTunes library and download the matched copy.

  • How do I remove songs from ipad?

    and leave them on the cloud?

    Hi rls144,
    On your iPad, find the song you want to delete. Swipe from left to right over the song. Hit Delete.
    You can also delete songs or playlists when you connect your iPad to your computer. In iTunes, select your iPad in the left column and click Music in the right column. Uncheck any music that you don't want on your iPad and click Apply or Sync.
    Hope this answers your question!

  • So, once i have music on my nano, how do i remove certain tracks?

    So guys, once i have music loaded to my nano, how do i go back and just remove certain tracks?

    connect your nano to your computer
    when itunes comes up, click on your nano (under devices on the left)
    scroll down on the summary tab (on the right) til you see options
    check "manually manage music and videos" and apply
    this will allow you to drag music to and from your nano.  now click "music" on the left under your device, and the music currently on your nano will appear on the right.  you should be able to delete items from your nano (they will not disappear from the music in your itunes acct so you can reload later as you like)

  • How do I remove songs from my iPhone?

    I have read everything I can find on line, none of them work,  The songs are not checked or selected to sync and they are not in a playlist or genre that syncs.  I have even tried deleting them from my iTunes library, but they are still in the cloud and still appear on my phone.  Can anybody help me?

    MY point is there is a much simpler way of explaining and doing this.
    Which I did, and you're welcome.
    As I stated earlier, this depends on if you are SYNCING music with Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, or if you are MANUALLY managing music with Manually manage music and videos selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    Like I stated earlier, I originally followed the directions above it it didn't work. AND I wasn't manually doing it. I was doing your SYNCING.
    More than likely due to PEBKAC.
    I ended up having to do it manually because the directions above were not correct.
    You can do one or the other with an iPhone, not both at the same time, and when switching from one to the other all iTunes content on your iPhone will be erased first.
    I in no way, shape or form said this is the case with everybody.
    Which is why I provided the correct and CLEAR answer. This depends on which option you have chosen - your MANUALLY manage music and videos, or syncing. As I stated previously.
    It is very much true if you are SYNCING music with Sync Music selected under the Music two for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    If you are manually managing music and video with your iPhone with this selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes you can manually delete music from your iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list.

  • How can I remove songs from my itunes library without losing them...

    ... on my ipod. My hard drive is full and I was wondering if there was a way to only sync new music and delete old music from my library. Thanks.

    You simply have to change the update option of your iPod to "manually manage music and videos". You can get details here: Managing content manually on iPod
    One major word of caution. If you delete songs from your PC and have no back up other than the iPod you will risk losing them permanently if your iPod fails or you find you have to restore it to solve a problem. You should consider investing in an additional internal or external hard drive to store/back up your music. Alternatively at the very least back up songs you can't replace such as iTunes downloads to CD or DVD. Forum member Buegie has compiled a very extensive procedure for backing up your music which you'll find at this link: Backing up iTunes
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod
