I need help deleting songs from my new iphone.  The songs don't show up in library, they're unchecked and I've synced only the checked songs, but they're still on my brand new phone.  I've swiped my finger to the left, and that doesn't work.

They have the icloud symbol beside them.  Does that make a difference?

Hello Jensones,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with music on your iPhone 5s.  It sounds like you're seeing your iTunes in the Cloud purchases. 
The items you see with the iCloud icon next to them are purchased songs that you can stream from iTunes in the Cloud and do not have a delete option because they are not actually on your device.  You can hide all these songs in Settings on the iPhone:
Just show music that’s been downloaded from iCloud: Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.
These steps are from the iPhone User Guide:
iPhone User Guide
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph6e2dfb83
If there are just specific songs you would like to hide, you can hide them using the iTunes Store on your 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."
Once you hide the songs on your computer, I recommend quitting and relaunching the Music app on your iPhone.  You can find more information about hiding purchases here:

    Have you backup your phone yet?  You should do that first so you can restore your new phone to that back up http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 .   After you have restore your new phone, then you can delete the contents of your phone.

  • Need help: Debeating updating from 3GS to iPhone 4

    Hello, all. I'm sure I'm not the first to have asked for help on this but I am debating upgrading from my iPhone 3GS (1 yr old this month) to the iPhone 4. I checked and I am eligible for the early upgrade so the cost for the 16GB is not much of an issue.
    Here is my main concern: the network signal. In my house and in many other indoor locations, I am lucky to get 2 bars of AT&T service and most of the time have "Searching . . ." or "No Service" in that upper left corner. From what I understand, I am not the only one with this issue and it appears to be an issue with all iPhones across the AT&T network. I see that the iPhone 4 has a new antenna design that supposedly resolves this issue. Of course, the phone isn't out yet *but has there been any word on whether the signal is vastly better on the iPhone 4?*
    I don't want to sign up for a new 2-year contract on a phone and have the same issues when I could just tough it out with my 3GS for another year or less until Apple FINALLY brings the iPhone to Verizon.
    On a related note, does the early upgrade promotion only apply to pre-orders and/or to a small window of time after June 24th? I'd like to wait and see what new users think of the signal strength and antenna on the iPhone 4 before making that leap.
    Any help you can give would be appreciated. Thanks!

    From what I understand, I am not the only one with this issue and it appears to be an issue with all iPhones across the AT&T network.
    This is not an issue with ALL iPhones - with each and every single iPhone sold to date in the U.S. across the entire AT&T network.
    There isn't a single carrier that guarantees reception when inside any building or structure. CDMA networks and phones are somewhat better in this regard, but can have the same problem depending on the building structure along with other factors. Up until a year ago or so, I had a business phone with Verizon which I carried with my iPhone. Had 1-2 bars of reception with Verizon at my house and I had to step outside in the back or front yard to ensure a call wasn't dropped. The same at my former office - had 4-5 bars of reception but there was something about the the building structure that was not good with Verizon's CDMA network and/or with my phone. Verizon's old "can you hear me now" commercials were most appropriate since I was saying that a lot with Verizon.
    Didn't have the problem at both locations with my iPhone and AT&T, so I ended up having my Verizon number forwarded to my iPhone.
    I don't believe there has been any word on if reception is vastly better or if any better with the iPhone 4 and the new antenna design, but I seriously doubt it is worse. More than likely this will be an improvement, which may be vastly better for some, or only a little or marginally better for others with a number of various and varying factors that affect this.
    I don't want to sign up for a new 2-year contract on a phone and have the same issues when I could just tough it out with my 3GS for another year or less until Apple FINALLY brings the iPhone to Verizon.
    You can return the iPhone 4 for payment credit less a 10% restocking fee if the packaging is opened within 30 days of the purchase data and cancel the new two year contract within the same 30 days with no penalty.
    I'll bet you dollars to donuts the iPhone will not be with Verizon. Chances are slim to none that Apple would manufacture a CDMA phone for a single carrier only along with all the additional expenses associated with that vs manufacturing a phone for a single network that is the worldwide standard with the iPhone currently available in 88 countries for that reason alone.

  • NEED HELP: Deleted windows from bootcamp but comp. won't boot into mac OS!!

    Here is my problem -
    I tried to install windows with bootcamp and couldn't get it to work because I had no valid product key for windows. So I deleted the windows partition to remove it from my mac. However, when I boot up the computer it goes to a black screen and tries to boot from a cd instead of just booting directly into leopard.
    If I hold down the option key when I turn on the computer it bypasses that black screen and allows me to select the hard drive for leopard - then everything works as normal.
    So my question is - how can I stop my laptop from trying to load from the cd and just boot directly into leopard when I turn on the computer like it used to.
    Please help me - thank.

    Here are the steps on how to delete music from your iPad.
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    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.

  • I need to transfer data from my old iphone to my new iphone and I cannot turn off Find my iphone

    I need to transfer data from my old iphone to my new iphone and I cannot turn off Find my iphone as my icloud password is incorrect.  I have reset this several times and also cleared cookies history etc.  none of the above makes a difference.  Any ideas?

    The ONLY thing you can do to turn off Find My iPhone is to have the correct password. There is no way around it. You can get help with the password: If you forgot your Apple ID password
    If none of those methods are possible: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

  • Just got an iphone 4 from my dad and its his old iphone and i was gonna delete his account so i can put my account on the iphone but he does not remember the  password so I couldnt delete it. I need help deleting it without a password

    just got an iphone 4 from my dad and its his old iphone and i was gonna delete his account so i can put my account on the iphone but he does not remember the  password so I couldnt delete it. I need help deleting it without a password.

    If the iPad has Activation Lock - that is, it's asking for the previous owner's Apple ID and password to activate the device or to turn off Find My iPhone - then you will need that information. There's no way around it If your father can't remember the password, he'll need to recover it.
    http://iforgot.apple.com
    If he can't do it via that page, then he'll have to call Apple Support and ask to speak with Account Security.
    If that's not the "password" you meant, please post back and clarify.

    Hi @chandlar_27! Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    Warranty? You have to conntact the place where you got it.
    To know if it's not been used yet, Go to the Phone App> Swipe down from the top screen> Settings> Call Summary.
    if the number there doesn't match your personal use since purchase, you will know it has been used before.

    You should delete your phone number from the topic line.
    Spambots search these forums for contact info.
    You don't want to get even more telemarketing/scam calls than you probably already get.
    It seems like the "Do Not Call" lists are ignored these days.

Does anyone know how to solve my problem? Please and Thank You, Megan!

    Might have luck with that here >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer on the iTunes Store.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID that was used for the original purchases.
