I only want to delete from itunes not ipod

I have an I pod nano. I still new. And my dad has told me that music takes up space, so I want to delete easy to get songs, but in order to delete them, from itunes, they will delete from the ipod, which I don't want. So some one plz help.

If you want to delete songs from iTunes but keep them on the iPod then change the update option of your iPod to "manually manage songs and playlists". Connect your iPod and in iTunes go to Preferences>iPod, you can amend the option there: Managing Your Songs Manually
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

  • Only want to send from Reader not save

    I have a form which people using Reader will
    be filling in and emailing back to me, so I've used the 'Enable User rights ' in Acrobat 8.
    When you go to submit the data via email in Reader it wants to save the file first, is there a way of avoiding this, I only want the sender to email it to me so that I can save it somewhere on the server, don't need everybody else also saving it somewhere on the server.
    Thanks
    Ian

    Thanks for confirming that Niall.
    If you do click in the signature field you do get the save as dialouge box.
    Pity there is no workaround, perhaps in future development of Adobe Reader there will be more ability for it to process forms as they have been developed in Live Cycle.
    Thanks for your assistance, my knowledge is slowly increasing.
    Regards

  • I want to reinstall an app fresh install from iTunes not from my iCloud, I go to manage storage I stop backup and delete app by turning green button off, but when I ask to download it again from iTunes it is only downloading it from my iCloud. help?

    I want to reinstall an app fresh install from iTunes not from my iCloud, I go to manage storage I stop backup and delete app by turning green button off, but when I ask to download it again from iTunes it is only downloading it from my iCloud.
    Please assist
    Thx

    You don't really delete app that way, that way to stop backup for that app in icloud.
    You need to delete it from your home screen and then while it still will look like download from icloud - app will start fresh.
    However if app uses any account sign in the stuff that is attached to sign in will come back, so if you do not want to you need to use
    fresh account as well.

  • HT204022 I backed my old iphone up to my computer and bought a new iphone.  When i backed my new phone up I now I have an icloud photo (from my computer) album that I want to delete from my phone but I do not have the option.  Please help.

    I backed my old iphone up to my computer and bought a new iphone.  When i backed my new phone up I now I have an icloud photo (from my computer) album that I want to delete from my phone but I do not have the option.  Please help.

    If the album was synced to your phone from your computer, it can only be removed by sycing it off.  To do this, deselect the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync.

  • HT201272 I have accidentally deleted an Audiobook from my iPad. It was purchased from iTunes (not Audible - though it is an Audible product). It does not appear in the list of previous purchases. How do I 'find' it to re-download it?

    I have accidentally deleted an Audiobook purchased from iTunes. (Purchased from iTunes, not Audible, but it is an Audible product). It does not appear anywhere on a lost of previously purchased items.  How can I 'find' it and re-download it? Thanks!

    Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

  • HT4191 I deleted notes on my mac but did not want them deleted from iPhone but after synching they are all done. Can I get them back?

    I deleted notes on my mac but did not want them deleted from iPhone but after synching they are all done. Can I get them back?

    Deleting on one device does not affect another device.
    You can delete the App's on the iPhone and nothing will happen to the ones on the iPad.
    1.  You don't need to.
    2.  Settings->Cellular->"Use Cellular Data For" will show the data usage for each App since the last statistics reset
    3.  Settings->General->Background App Refresh Will show which Apps are allowed to get data in the background
    4.  It restricts it to Wifi.  If the App requires internet access and Data is turned off, it will have to wait until the device is connected to a wifi network.
    5.  Nope, You just use up battery since the BT radio will continuously look for nearby BT devices.
    6.  The Personal Hotspot uses your cellular internet connection from your phone or other cellular device; whether you consider that secure or not I cannot say.  It also depends on what you are doing while connected to the Hotel's wifi. I would not do online banking while on vacation though.

  • How do you delete albums from an I-phone 4,only able to delete from camera roll,but not the other albums

    How do you delete albums from an I-phone 4,only able to delete from camera roll,but not the other albums

    How did the photos get onto the phone ? Only photos taken with the phone or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the device. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from on your computer and then re-syncing.

  • If my backup was deleted from itunes is there a way to restore it?

    All my backup were accidently deleted from Itunes is there a way to restore them? Or at least the last backup?

    I am not sure if he synced his iPhone to which iTunes Library - may be with yours? An iPhone should be synced with only one iTunes Library. If he has his Apps and Music in his iTunes Library, I guess he only have to re-sync with his itunes library.
    However, you should be able to re-download the Apps and Music (purchased in iTunes) through iTunes as Apple already implemented some features of their iCloud in itunes 10.3.1. So, upgrade to itunes 10.3.1 and follow the below steps. I am not sure you can re-download option in earlier versions of iTunes.
    Step 1. Open your Bf's iTunes. Make sure you have logged onto your BF's iTunes Store. Click Store>Sign In and then insert the Apple ID & Password. Since you purchased Apps and Music I assume you have them.
    Step 2. Click on "Purchased" on the left side panel under the "Store" Section.
    Step 3. Then Click on "Downbload Previous Purchases" on the bottom right section of the screen.
    Step 4. Once you have re-downloaded all the Apps and Music, check the sync settings, check the items you want on the iPhone and hit Sync. The items should be copied back in his phone.

  • Recover deleted songs from iTunes using iPod

    I will preface by saying, I am an idiot, so please phrase your answers like you're talking to a 10 year old. I have a new Mac (my first) and I had iTunes all set up and working correctly until somehow I deleted a folder with half my music in it. It is all on my iPod, however. How do I get it from my iPod back into iTunes? There is some SINCERE gratitude here for anyone who can help.

    If your iPod is set to update automatically you can use a keyboard command to prevent it auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘ Apple) keys. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and it will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer.
    Change your update setting to manual so that you can use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using a lot of the utilities your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article:: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
    The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to your Mac. The procedure is a bit involved but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    If you prefer something more automated there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Senuti Mac Only
    iPodRip Mac Only
    PodWorks Mac Only
    PodView Mac Only
    iPodAccess Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac & Windows
    PodUtil Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac & Windows
    Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. External drives are relatively inexpensive these days and you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • How do I sync iPhone and iTunes so music deleted in iPhone is also deleted from iTunes?

    Hi there folks,
    Not sure this is possible as I have done some looking online and can't find an answer, but thought the experts here may be able to help me.
    I have quite an extensive music library, at least 5000 songs.  Problem is, I don't like/want to keep all of them, but to sit at the computer and listen to them one by one to delete is very painful.  I have my iPhone plugged in and playing music all day at work.  Is it possible to delete the song off of my iPhone and then sync in such a way that the same song is deleted from iTunes at a later date?  Is this possible?  I don't know if the music on the iPhone can override the music in iTunes....
    Just in case it is helpful, I have the latest version of iTunes, run IOS 7.1.2 on a 4S
    Thanks for any help, in advance!!

    Your iPhone actually gets the same form of files like songs from your iTunes library when you synchronise.
    If you delete a song in iTunes library, it means that song will also be deleted in your iPhone when you sync.
    However, if you delete a song in your iPhone, the song will recover after synchronization since iPhone copies files exactly from your iTunes library.

  • Can we copy back songs from iPhone to iTunes library, once if deleted from iTunes library ?

    can we copy back songs from iPhone to iTunes library, once if deleted from iTunes library ?

    Have you not got a backup of your content ? iTunes will only copy back purchases that you made from Apple. For music from other sources you will need to find a program from another source which can copy them back from the phone - if you do a search on google you might find some. Or depending from where you got them from can you re-download them from those sites ?

  • Deleted items from Ipod Nano to make room for new. Emptied trash. Still getting error message when I try to copy items from ITunes to Ipod. What should I do now?

    Deleted items from Ipod Nano to make room for new. Emptied trash. Still getting error message when I try to copy items from ITunes to Ipod. What should I do now?

    If you delete songs (and other items) from the main iTunes library, yes, you need to empty the Trash because iTunes puts the song files into the Trash.  When deleting items from an iPod, the items are not being deleted from the main iTunes library, so nothing should end up in the Trash.
    Hopefully, you are not deleting items from your main iTunes library, just to sync those deletions from the iPod.  If you are, there is a better way.  You can post back if you want more info...

    sorry for my some mistake in descussion because i am bad in english.

    Welcome to the Apple community moonlight94.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare (or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • Did Occipital, Inc. stop making the ClearCam app? Version 1.8.2 was the last update. Why was the ClearCam app deleted from iTunes.?

    The ClearCam app by Occipital, Inc. was deleted from iTunes? Version 1.8.2 was the last update. Does anyone know why the app was deleted from iTunes? Just looking for an answer, because I used that app on a daily basis for work. I'd appreciate it so much if some had an answer to this question. Thanks

    I have a similar problem and have spent three sequential days at the Apple Genius Bar before we were able to exclude most other possibilities and found that certain files (in my case all mp3s from CDs I own) that play just fine in iTunes 11.0.1 and that used to play in iOS 6.0.1 do not play in iOS 6.1. We restored the phone to factory settings and synced only a few of the music files that were problematic. They still did not play. We reproduced the problem on my iPad mini (iOS6.1).
    Apple Telephone Support suggestion was to convert all mp3 files in iTunes to AAC (which according to Apple Website may degrade sound quality). No further suggestions or escalation but a recommendation to place comments on www.apple.com/feedback and, if there are enough complaints, someone at Apple might take an interest in this problem. Something has changed in iOS 6.1 where files that played on prior mobile system software no longer work.
    Apple, please pay attention to this glitch with iOS 6.1.
