If I delete all the music on my phone will it still be on iCloud?
I Have both an iPhone 5s and and iPhone 4S - at the minute I'm having a disaster with my 5s as it had taken a swim so I am back using my 4s. If I delete all my music from my 4s will I lose it forever or will it be on iCloud? I'm hopeless with iCloud!

The music is not on my phone and I've checked I selected 'show all music' and it's not there. But when I plug my phone into my laptop all the music that use to be there still appears in the music folder but I can't delete it. So now when I try to add some of that music back onto my phone, a thing pops up saying iTunes cannot add any songs to the iPhone because it already contains all the songs in the playlist “iphone”.
I just realized I have a different iCloud account set up on my phone. The one on my Macbook is the one associated with my ITunes account. Could this be the problem?

I have all my music in iTunes and have "Music Match" turned on. Apparently, I also have music on my iPhone 5. I need to free up space on my iPhone. If I delete the music on my iPhone, will it still be available to me on my phone via the cloud?
The same is true for photo's. I have too many photo's on my phone taking up space. Now I realize I can remove a lot of the photo's via sync options, but ...This can happen if iTunes gets confused about what is and isn't on the device. These steps should resolve.
Backup the device.
Restore as a new device.
Restore the backup made earlier.

Whenever I try to sync my phone with my computer it won't automatically sync my new music from my computer to my phone. When i select it to sync it says that it is going to delete all the music off my phone because its already with another device (or something along those lines) but I use my itunes from my computer to my phone. Does anyone know how I can fix this so it will sync. Will all the songs on my phone be on my computer so it won't matter if it deletes them off of my phone?

How can I delete all the music from my iPhone and reinstall it?
I am trying to delete all the music from my iPhone 5 and reinstall it. The names of some of the albums and the artists did not import correctly from my CDs. I went back into iTunes and made corrections, synced my phone and no changes were made to the music on my phone. And two of the albums (I only have albums, not individual songs) are duplicated on the phone, though they are not in my iTunes library.
I have gone into iTunes, selected the device at the top right corner, selected all the music that showed up in the window - gone to the Edit menu, selected "all" and then "delete." The list of tracks disappears from the device list. I then synced the phone again, and the albums are still on the phone. What am I missing, please? I've even shut the phone down and restarted it, synced it again, but nothing changes.
Help, please?Follow the instructions here or here; the first set of instructions may require a power source other than a computer's USB port, so you should have one of these before proceeding. Your iPod is a fourth generation model.

Can anyone tell me how to tranfer the music that is on my Shuffle to iTunes? When I go to Sync it, it gives me a warning that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what is on my iTunes. I recently changed computers from an HP to a Mac-Mini and did not transfer/sync the itunes prior to getting rid of my itunes. So the music I had on itunes does not appear in my library. Help please!
See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your new Mac and into iTunes.
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
Then proceed to do the Erase and Sync or restore the device.

When I sync my ipod classic with iTunes it deletes all the music on my ipod
Hi everyone, I have an ipod classic 160GB and when I try to sync it with iTunes to put things like TV shows ect it deletes all the music off of my iPod (which is over 400 songs) so I have to put it all back on using another program and then when I try to use iTunes again it deletes everything. Sometimes when I put podcasts on it just deletes the music but not the podcasts, or it'll decide to the opposite. Recently it deleted all of my music and videos and just left the podcasts.
Your help is greatly appreciated,
thank youHello qz0rz213,
It would seem that iTunes has encountered or developed an issue in the process of trying to sync photos to your device. The best place to start would be removing the iPod Photo Cache (thus allowing for a new version to be created).
Note: Deleting this folder will not remove the original images from your library.
iTunes: Understanding the iPod Photo Cache folder
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
If the issue is not resolved by removing the iPod Photo Cache, the following article goes into further steps that can both help you determine the source of this trouble and eliminate it.
Symptoms
In certain situations, iTunes may display an alert or may be unable to sync photos to an iPod or iOS device. Examples include:
After updating iOS, iTunes displays an alert that there is not enough room to sync photos
This error appears: "The iPhone/iPod touch '[device name]' cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found."
This article outlines steps to resolve these issues.

I deleted all the music from my itunes library because I mistakenly thought I had it backed up on an external hard drive. Can I restore the library from my ipod touch?

iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups -
I have been having this problem since I had my phone... I have numerous artists that are separated because of a small change such as having "The" or even just a space at the end of the artists name. I fixed this issue with my gf's iPod 2 months ago by painstakingly going through each and every artist ensuring that the name was spelled the exact same way as all the other songs by the same artist. I did the same for my iTunes and although it shows up fine in iTunes, even after I delete all my music off my phone and resync, the issue persists. I am super anal about things just like this and it is driving me to the point where I don't want to use my phone as an iPod (I rarely used my existing iPod but I thought it would be nice to have one I would always have on me) because to listen to an artist all the way through I have to change halfway.
The title of my initial post is a bit misleading. I already took a chance deleting one of the iPhones, hoping if I deleted the wrong one, I can still reauthorize it (all with the same Apple ID acct, so not subject to 90-day waiting period, right?) The iTunes database just updated itself, and it says I have 4 "devices" "in the Cloud", but 5 "computers" associated w my account. How can I find out what computers are associated? Isn't there a list I can see? I dont have a clue what computers they might be. If I use the "Deauthorize All" option, is it a pain to add them all back in. I assume I would have to log in from each computer to reauthorize each one. Would I have to be running the newest OS or version of iTunes to reauthorize? I think I have a PowerBook G4 Titanium with an older OS and iTunes. I'd like to keep that authorized, if possible.

I deleted all the music on my iPhone, but all the album artwork still exist. How do I clear and add a fresh batch of music? Also my iTunes no longer recognizes my iPhone under the "devices" tab so I am unable to manually sync. I have disconnected it makes a beep sound when reconnected so I know my computer is finding the phone, the iPhone also appears on Explorer. Stupid question but I can't figure it out and wasting too much time. Thank you.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, big mistake, then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to the computer: File>Transfer Purchases
You may be able to buy a 3rd party program to get any other music off of the iphone ( not supported by Apple).
When you sync the iphone, it will erase the current content and replace with content form the new computer.
"Not happy with itunes right now, more then a bit of a joke"
Not itunes fault that you did not do the very basics and maintain a backup copy. -
How do i delete all the music off my iPad mini?
how do i delete all the music off my iPad mini?
Hello Tami,
Thank you for the question. You can remove all the music stored on your iPad mini from the Usage section in Settings:
View usage on iOS
Tap Settings > General > Usage to view the amount of space each app and its content takes on your device.
Tap an app for more detailed information about its usage.
Depending on the app, you may also be able to delete some of the app's content, or delete the app and its content.
After you have tapped on Music in the Usage section, swipe from right to left over “All Music” to get the option to tap Delete. This will remove all the music stored on your iPad mini.

I deleted a song from iTunes and it deleted all the music from the artist?
I was deleting a duplicate song from an album of an artist that I have a lot of music from and somehow iTunes deleted all the music from that artist. It's not supposed to do that especially when you're only deleting one song. Has anyone had this happen? It wasn't music that I bought from the iTunes store it was off cds.
Hello Rabzzy,
I would be concerned too if I was charged for the same song twice. I recommend using the steps in the following article to report this issue:

I have an iPhone 5 and I want to know if I delete all the photos on this device will it also delete them on my iPad, MacBook Air and my desktop?
No, I accidently erased my pic's and my Music from my iPhone 5 when I hooked it up to my New iMac Air when I sync it. I thought when you sync it saves all your Data from my iPhone,,,,Wrong! It did the opposite, and saved what was on my iMac Air to my iPhone, which was Nothing, since it was Brand new. It won't delete the pic's from my iPad. Lucky for me, I downloaded them all back to my iPhone from iCloud.

i tune deleted all my music on I phone when I tried to synchronise today !! how can I retrieve deleted music ?! please help
When you sync an IP with iTunes AND you have some purchased music that was downloaded directly to your IP, a box pops up asking if you want to transfer that data to your computer. The box clearly says if you don't, the music will be erased from your IP. As the previous poster states, I believe you can download the music again at no additional charge.
