Need help deleting songs off of my ipod...

The first version of Itunes i had i was able to click on my ipods name and all of the songs/videos were seen and i was able to delete songs...but after i updated itunes and i click on my ipods name...this screen that shows the summary of my ipod comes up and i dont know how to get to the screen that i can manually delete songs...

on the summary page put a check mark beside the only sync checked items and click apply in the bottom right corner. then in your main itunes library uncheck any songs you don't want on your ipod and then sync your ipod and the songs should be off of your ipod. hope this helps.

So, I just fixed my iPod Nano fixed. For them to fix it they had to clear all my songs. When I plug it into my Toshiba laptop it says you must restore it to use Windows. It also says it may delete songs to return to factory settings, but will it delete them off my iPod or my laptop since I don't have any on my iPod? Do I restore it? Will it delete anything off my iTunes or nothing? I really need to know!

Have you downloaded and installed the latest version of iTunes from here:

ITunes deleted songs off if my iPod

I downloaded a couple albums from the iTunes store on my iPod touch. The songs were on the iPod and not my Mac. When I went to sync the two together, my Mac deleted the songs from the iPod. So, now I these albums are lost since they are not on the Mac.
I also sent an e-mail to Apple explaining this.

Yes, that is the only computer my iPod syncs to. And, yes I know I can only sync to one computer. I was able to sync my iPod with my computer. However, my computer never synced with the iPod to get the two albums. Instead it just deleted the albums.

Replaced hard drive: need helping getting songs off ipod to itunes

I recently had to send my computer into apple for repair, needless to say they had to replace my hard drive so i lost all of my music. However it is still on my ipod, so i was wondering if there is a way to transfer it from my ipod to my computer

Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: 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.
The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod. 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. This is just a small selection of what's available, you can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
Senuti Mac Only
PodView Mac Only
PodWorks Mac Only
iPodDisk PPC Mac Only (experimental version available for Intel Macs)
TuneAid Mac only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac & Windows
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac & Windows
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
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, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

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:

Deleting songs off of Ipod Nano but NOT off of playlist

Hi,
I'm brand new to my Ipod and not very computer savvy. Can anyone tell me an EASY way to delete songs off of my Ipod but not my playlist. I don't get the whole "restore" thing-help!! Thanks so much!

To delete songs from the iPod but keep them in iTunes you have to set your iPod to manual update. Your iPod will not sync with iTunes in this mode so it can have different content, you can get details here:
Managing content manually on iPod
iPod 101: Fill 'er Up
Once your iPod is in manual mode, you click on the chevron to the left of the iPod icon (the little black triangle) to display the icons for the iPod itself, Music, playlists etc. You click on the Music icon relating to the iPod and this bring up the songs that are on your iPod in the main pane to the left. In the main pane you find what you want to delete, highlight it and hit the delete key.
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

Same Ipod recognized twice by iTunes, crashes when deleting songs off iPod.

I know that others have had this issue but there was never an answer and it was awhile back so I figured I'd post a new message. Everytime I sync my iPod it is recognized twice by iTunes. What I mean by this is that it looks as if I am syncing two iPods with the same name at the same time, although upon examination there contents appear different (when looking at the color bar that shows how much of the iPod is video, music, other, etc...) In addition, if I attempt to delete a song or songs off of the iPod, Itunes crashes but with no error message, just straight to the desktop, no questions asked. I know this is not a problem with drive letters as I have already checked that out and Windows is only recognizing the iPod once as the Q drive and no other drive shares that letter. Can someone please help? (or will my question end up in the iTunes message board graveyard of unanswered problems like so many others?)

so yeah i just tried that... didnt work. I changed the drive letter from G: to I: and no dice. This is all after i used msconfig to disable all third party services that automatically load at windows start up. Yet once again, those weren't the problem. So i completely uninstalled itunes, redownloaded, and then reinstalled the newest version with the third party services still disabled. Once again, itunes crashes : /
my friend is coming over in a bit and im going to see if i can successfully connect to her itunes. Only other options right now i feel i have is to pay apples sorry *** $30 to help me solve this over the phone.. or i can restore my ipod, then try again : ( any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated : )

How can you delete songs off the ipod without deleting songs off your itunes library?

How can you delete songs off the ipod without deleting songs off your itunes library? My son's ipod automatically synced all the songs in my library to his ipod which he now wants to get rid of. Is there a way to delete them all without me having to erase my library?

Do not select the songs to sync, then sync.

How can I delete individual songs off of my ipod shuffle with this new itunes?

Hello ArmyWife8610,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. I found an article with some steps to delete photo albums off of an iPhone. The way you delete the photos will depend on whether they were taken with the iPhone (on the Camera Roll) or if you synced the albums:
To delete photos and videos from your device
To delete synced photos and videos
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply.
To delete Camera Roll photos and videos
There are two methods to delete items from the Camera Roll:
Import the Camera Roll to your computer, choosing to delete items after import.
or
Delete photos and videos from your device manually. Open the Photos application, open the Camera Roll, tap the Action button, tap each photo to select it, and tap the Delete button.
Note: For photos and videos you want to save for later, import them to your computer before deleting them from the Camera Roll.
