Trouble deleting music off Iphone

I trouble deleting music off iPhone and iPod through iTunes. Can't access anything on it.

Now click on "Music" on the top left under "Library", all of your songs will appear to the right.  There is a box to the left of every song.  If it is checked, when you sync it will be transferred to your phone.  To delete a song from your phone, uncheck the box next to it.  When you have unchecked all the songs you want to delete from your phone, click on the Sync botton on the bottom right.  When your phone finishes syncing the unchecked songs should be deleted from your phone.
To summarize: checked songs are synced to your phone when you sync, unchecked songs are deleted from your phone when you sync.
Edit: When you are done unchecking the songs you don't want on your phone, click on the name of your phone again on the left sidebar, then click the Sync button on the bottom right.

  • Trouble deleting music off phone

    I'm having trouble deleting music from my iPhone. When I downloaded the song and started to play it, it would skip completely or play and cut off and on, I want to know what I can do without having to plug up my phone to the computer to delete the song and repurchase it???? Help please!!
    P.s match is off

    If you're using iTunes match, until you update to iOS 6.1 you can't delete (or download) individual songs.  All you could do is delete all the music from the phone by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete.  You will then have to download the music you want on your phone again from iTunes Match.

  • Deleting music off iphone while connected to itunes

    for some reason i cant not delete music off my iphone when its connected to itunes on my laptop. was wondering whats the issue?

    You're welcome.
    There is only one kind.
    There is a Reset and a Restore.
    You Reset an iPhone by pressing and holding the Home button and Sleep/Wake or On/Off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so.
    A Reset does not affect any data or settings. I Reset my iPhone once a week or so regardless if needed or not and I power my iPhone off and on first thing each morning.

  • Deleting music off iphone

    Can I delete music off my phone from itunes but still have it stored somewhere on itunes or the cloud so I can access it again?  I need to get it off my phone for space but still want it longterm on intunes somewhere so I can access it again and re-download it to my phone at another time.  Can this be done?

    Hi mjtacey13,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    If the music on your iPhone was purchased from the iTunes Store, you can redownload it at any time.
    If the music is from your iTunes library, you can change your preferences in iTunes to sync only the songs you want manually.
    It's always a good idea to first back up your iPhone before making an major changes:

    To remove all of the music on your iPhone, tap Settings > General > Usage >
    Tap on Music, tap Edit in the top right corner, tap on the red circle with the minus sign to the left of All Music, tap the red Delete button, tap Done.
    Hope this helps ...

  • What does deleting music off iPhone do?

    Let me start off by saying that I do NOT use iTunes Match on my iPhone, I sync all my music directly to the device. What does deleting the music do off of the iPhone?  Does it also delete it off the computer?  Does it only delete it off the computer if the music is "consolidated" in the iTunes Media folder?  Does it prevent it from syncing on the phone again but does not delete it from machine?
    Thank you

    Deleting music from your iPhone DOES NOT delete the music from your computer. It will automatically not sync the music to your iPhone again unless you specifically say so on the machine.

  • Can't delete music off iPhone from new computer - help.

    I bought a new computer a while ago. Im trying to update my music through my iTunes on my computer - but it won't let me delete anything thats on my iPhone already. I can delete it straight off my phone - but when I plug it in everything syncs back up :s The computer is authorized already with my iTunes account.

    I feel really silly but I just figured it out - for anyone possibly having this problem - in the new iTunes you have to go into your device - music and if you scroll allllllll the way to the bottom it says "Manually added songs" and you can delete from there. I kind of miss when you could just right click on them in your Music file and delete it that way. It seems much simpler.

  • Deleting Music off iPhone 5S.

    I just bought a iPhone 5S and a iPad Air and have a Mac Book Pro.  I have a large music library and would like to take it off my iPhone 5S and leave it on my iPad Air and Mac.  I just want to free up space on my phone.  Can anyone tell me how to do this step by step.  I also have an iCloud account in case this needs to be bought into consideration.   Thank you.

    Is the music still in your iTunes library?
    If so, you may follow this article.

  • How do I delete music off of my iPhone to get more storage space?

    I want to delete music off of my iPhone to free up storage space.  I want the music completely off and no iCloud download next to the music so I don't use data as well.

    To delete you songs in iPod and not in iTunes library, you have to put iTunes Device sync to Manually Manage ticked as below,
    the example, is for iPod Touch, but applicable to iPod Classic.
    To sync your content manually:
    Connect your iPod, iPhone, or iPad to your computer and select your device in iTunes (below Devices)
    Click the Summary button and select “Manually manage music and videos” (below Options).
    Select a category (below Library).
    Do any of the following:
    To add items to your device, drag videos, playlists, artists, genres, and albums to your iPod, iPhone, or iPad (below Devices).
    To delete a song or selection of songs from your device, select the song/s and press the Delete key.Removing a song from your device doesn’t delete it from your iTunes library.
    Before you disconnect your device, click the Eject button .
    Have a nice day

  • ITunes will not allow me to delete music off of my iPhone, is there a way to fix this?

    I just updated my hard drive, and haven't synced my phone to my laptop in a while because it wasn't working until now. Now, I'm trying to delete music off of my phone/generally manage it but when I left click on a song it only gives me about 4 options, none of them are delete.

    To delete a track from your phone (you are in the 'on my device' music section ?) then just select/highlight the track and press the delete button on your keyboard.

  • Why can't I delete music off of my iphone 5?

    I cannot for the life of me figure out how to delete music off of my phone. It has all the new updates.
    Normally what I do is plug my phone into my macbook and then right click and click delete under the music option. But when I right click there is no delete option at all.
    Also, you cannot swipe left to right on your phone and delete it that way either. I've done everything everyone has suggested on here. Is there an actual apple support tech that can help us? I have unwanted songs taking up space. Why is there no delete option at all? That makes no sense!

    I've figured it out.  Go to the Music tab when you plug your phone in, and scroll all the way down.  There should be a section called "Manually Added Songs", and when you highlight a song, there's a "Remove" button that you can use. Good luck!

  • Just downloaded ios7 and my phone wont let me delete music off of it

    my phone isnt letting me delete music off of it

    Hey jan131,
    Thanks for the question. With iOS 7, you can delete a song by doing the following:
    Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
    via page 62 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Please note that if you have "Show All Music" enabled in Settings > iTunes & App Store, the above will delete the song from your device, but it will still appear available (with a cloud symbol to re-download).
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • How can i delete music off of my ipad 2, how can i delete music off of my ipad 2

    I have an ipad 2 it has software vision 4.3.2 how can i delete music off of it. it wont let me when i attach it to my computer and it wont delete directly from the ipad

    If its to save room I wouldn't drag the files to the trash. That would get rid of them for good. I know you said you can't by computer, if your syncing with that computer, under music when it's connected, don't sync full library. Go through and select the certain songs you want. If its to delete just off your iPad because you don't have a comp read what ana posted.
