Is it possible to delete a song from 5th generation Ipod?

Hi All
Is it possible to delete a song from 5th generation Ipod, if so, how can this be done?

Connect your iPod Nano to your computer. Go into iTunes & click on Music or your playlist under "Devices."
Delete the songs from iTunes. Once deleting is done, eject your iPod Nano.

Possible to DELETE ERASE songs FROM NANO?

Wondering if its possible to delete/erase songs, podcasts and so on from the Nano itself? If not, are there any cool hacks that allow this? I'm not up to date on all the tricks and hacks but know some Apple people that hack all the time (even iPhone) not to use without AT&T but to add cool functions.
Not sure where to look.
Just want to delete items from device without computer.
Thanks

I'm afraid you can't delete songs directly from the Nano, all additions and deletions have to be made through iTunes on your computer.

Going from 5th Generation iPod to iPod Touch

I currently have a 5th generation 80gb and I am getting a new iPod Touch 32gb. I am selling my old iPod to a friend. My questions are as follows:
1. Before I sell the old iPod, I need to restore it to original factory settings to wipe it clean,correct?
2. Will he have problems getting my old iPod to work with his account?
3. Are there any special settings or setup I need to perform to get iTunes to recognize my new iPod Touch with my iTunes account?
Thanks for any help as I could not find an answer in the help section.

*1. Before I sell the old iPod, I need to restore it to original factory settings to wipe it clean,correct?*
Correct
*2. Will he have problems getting my old iPod to work with his account?*
There's no reason he should if the iPod is working ok for you
*3. Are there any special settings or setup I need to perform to get iTunes to recognize my new iPod Touch with my iTunes account?*
No. You just need to connect your new iPod. If the songs you had on your previous iPod are still in iTunes they will load onto your new one. Follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like.

Going from 5th generation ipod to iphone...

Okay, I just so happen to luck out on an Iphone, but, I already have a blackberry. My question is, can I convert all of my music and photos and videos that I already have on my ipod onto my iphone- just plug it into the computer that i have my ipods music on, or do i need to install the iphone software onto that computer as well?

Connect it to iTunes and it will be just like adding music to your iPod.

Deleting songs from 5th gen. Nano

Is it possible to delete a song or 2 from the 5th gen nano without resetting to factory settings?

Hello JoeCoasty,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
How you delete music from your iPod depends on how you have it set up to sync with iTunes, whether that be automatically or manually. Either way, see this Apple support document for more assistance.

How do I re-install iTunes so that when I delete a song from iTunes I have the option to remove it from my computer as well?

I created multiple libraries and multiple locations for music of different genres; however, in the end I decided that I wanted to keep all of my music in one location and to have just one iTunes library. The problem is that when I go to delete a song from my iTunes library, I no longer have the option to remove the file from my computer as well. This is because the my iTunes library and the location of my music files were not in my iTunes music folder (http://forums.ilounge.com/itunes-mac-pc/119629-delete-songs-itunes-library-compu ter-together.html). I tried changing the iTunes Media Folder location (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1364), but that didn't solve. Then I tried reinstalling iTunes: I figured that starting fresh would put my iTunes library in the right location so that I would have this option again, but it didn't work. (When reinstalling, I got an error message that 6D5Dubs, the name of my last iTunes library, couldn't be found. I clicked 'OK' and was asked to 'Choose was asked to 'Choose library...' or 'Create Library'. I created a library since I had deleted the other ones in my attempt to start fresh) Any suggestions? Note: I find the CTRL+R solution tedious for my purposes.
Some extra info:
Running Windows 7, 64bit
Location of my music files - C:\Users\John\Music\Music
or
Libraries>Music>Music
Location of my iTunes library - C:\Users\John\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music Library
or
Libraries>Music>iTunes>Itunes Music Library

Deleting iCloud songs from iPod Touch? Please!

Hi,
The quick way of saying what I'm trying to do is delete and iCloud song from my iPod and the photo at the bottom will give you an idea of what Im talking about but...
I was working with an Apple person over the phone last night for my macbook but he ended up seeing 2 aerosmith songs under various artists because they were purchased from a movie soundtrack. What he did was change around the song information so that it would show up under Aerosmith. After doing this, the song did show up under Aerosmith but it also brought up the letters V and P which it also listed Aerosmith under. We did some searching and when we pulled the information for the 2 songs, we saw that in the copyright part (where we are unable to retype anything, the name Pamela Jetson came up which is why there is a P.
After that we deleted the songs from iTunes but now I'm trying to do this from my iPod so that hopefully this will go, but it will only put a cloud next to it and not fully delete it. I could try looking back at my old computer to see how it exactly was identified and see if we can bring it back down to the various artists but I do'n't want it to bring every Aerosmith song with it because you can see how under the P all Aerosmith songs are listed. Because of this, when I go to hit the letters on the side such as T to find say, Tom Petty, it guesses that T is in-between the A and V so it jumps up to the top rather than going to the bottom where the Ts really are...
Thank you so much!!!!

Tried this and was able to fully clear Aerosmith from the song info. but it is still causing this... Irritating, when I get another iPhone, and download everything as it appears on the computer (the song is no longer on the computer) will this reoccur?

How do I delete just songs from the iPad?

In an attempt to move my iTunes library, I have now gotten way out of whack with my music. I deleted all songs from iTunes and re-imported (sacrificing my play counts, etc., but I didn't know what else to do), and that works, but it leaves my iPad in a state of confusion. So I would like to remove all music from the iPad and just start over and re-sync, but I am having no luck with that.
Here are things I've tried:
Re-syncing after re-importing the library to iTunes. After that, I can see a full list of songs on the iPad, but 80% of them are grayed out and not playable.
Deleted all the iTunes library files (the itdb's, the itl's and the xml) so that when iTunes opened, it would give me the fresh screen and show no music. Then I synced the iPad--it told me it was going to erase everything on the iPad b/c it was synced to a different library (presumably my old library), and I said okay, and it synced, and somehow there are still about 200 songs on there. No idea how those songs "survived," but they did.
I tried going to Settings -> General, and I see an option for "Reset All Settings", and right under it "Erase All Content and Settings," but inexplicably, there is no option for "Erase All Content and Leave the Settings Alone!" I'm not sure why of those three things, they think the first two are important to users, and the last one isn't.
Ideally I would not like to reset my iPad, as I don't want to lose all my app data and that kind of thing--anybody know an easy way just to wipe all song media from the iPad? Thanks!

How do you delete a song from a playlist in iTunes?

I feel stupid asking this question but how do you delete a song from a playlist? right clicking doesn't give a menu option to do it, and neither does the file menu. The highlight/delete option doesn't work either.
Also, I've ended up with several copies of the same songs in my library . Can i delete the excess tracks in one go without highlighting them?
Thanks,
Dom

Option-delete will remove a selected track from a playlist AND the library. Delete will just remove the track from a regular playlist.
Yes, you need to highlight all the songs you want to delete. Sort your library by song title. This should put all the dups together for easy highlighting and deleting.

A Espinoza,
The iTunes Media folder is set in Preferences > Advanced, and is the key to most iTunes folder organizational activities. So I doubt that the automatic deletion will work for files that are somewhere else within the folder structure.
However, I have not experimented with that issue in quite a while, so you are welcome to give it a try in iTunes 11.

Hello CleveCo, Inc
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
At some point in time, you may have selected the option to prevent that dialog from appearing again when trying to delete tracks from your library. To reset all of iTunes warning dialogs, click the Edit drop down menu and choose Preferences from the list (on a Mac it is *iTunes -> Preferences* ). When the window pops up, head over to the Advanced tab and click the *Reset Warnings* button. Then quit iTunes and relaunch it. That do the trick for you?
