Why cant i delete songs off my iphone?

so all i want to do is delete JUST ONE BAND off of my iphone to make room for other things.. the band is already deleted out of my itunes library. the files, themselves, have been thrown in my trash and deleted permanently. BUT, the band is still on my iphone. i tried syncing my iphone and it said that my iphone would need 44.1 MB of extra space.. i went into the syncing options and clicked "selected playlists, albums, artists, and genres" and unchecked every single option possible. i tried syncing that so it would delete EVERYTHING off my iphone so i could simply resync my library (minus the music i want gone). when i tried that, it shows (in the bar at the bottom) that i would have 54 GB free. but when i click sync, it says my iphone will be 1 MB over capacity.. really? since when do i have only a 2 GB harddrive on my phone?
why is it so **** difficult to simply delete a band off my phone? ive checked google and this site for answers, but NONE of them offered a solution..

  • I delete songs off my iPhone 5s in iTunes but they are still on my phone. How do I resolve this?

    I'm simply trying to get enough space to update my 5s because of the whole thing where you're phone needs room to install an update. I deleted over 100 songs off of my iPhone while in iTunes on my computer. I decided to sync to see if it would show up, but all that did was add the apps from other people's devices in my house. Then I disconnected and my phone froze. I plugged it back in, got the apple logo and it loaded again, but still it showed 825 songs on my iPhone while according to iTunes, I have 666 songs on my iPhone. What do I do?
    All I wanted was to update my iPhone but as usual, Apple makes things 10x more complicated than they need to be.

    Apple isn't making this 10x more complicated you are.
    If you deleted the music why are you syncing back apps from other user on your computer?
    Have you tried deleting the music directly from your phone and then update over the air?

  • Why is itunes deleting songs from my iphone 4s?

    So, I've had this happen at least 5 times now Over the course of a month.
    I put about 20-30 gigs of music on my phone (WHICH TAKES A LOT OF TIME TO SELECT), its fine.
    Then, if I connect my phone to itunes anytime after that, I have nothing but "purchased" songs on my phone.
    I have "manually manage music and videos" checked
    and "sync only check songs and video" checked as well.
    Never had this problem with the previous version of itunes.
    And I've narrowed it down to only happening when my My computer is connected to the internet,
    via wifi OR when my iphone is connected to my computer via wifi.
    Its really not too cool to be honest with ya.
    I don't want to stream music, and as paranoid and cynical as it sounds,
    it really feeels like apple is trying to force me into Beats subscription or itunes match or icloud, etc.
    I'm not interested in any of that. I simply want to put songs on my phone and go, with the ability to add songs later without them being deleted.
    Thank you for any help you can contribute.
    Version is itunes 12.1
    ios 8.2.

    Try going to the Advanced tab in iTunes prefs and clicking the "Reset all dialog warnings" button.
    Do you get prompted now?

  • Trouble deleting songs off Music with new IOS7

    Is anybody else having trouble deleting songs off their iPhone using ios7?

    What sort of "troubles" are you having? It might be that the songs you're seeing are stored in the cloud and not on the phone
    try Settings>Music and turn show all music off and see if you can delete after that

  • Why can I delete songs from iPhone if they return when synced??

    Why is there an option to delete songs from iPhone if it dosn't really delete them?? When you delete songs from the iPhone it will put them right back in as soon as you press sync. The only way around it is to manage you music manually witch is allot harder and now when you delete from iPhone it won't sync them back in but you now don't know what you removed. So you won't be able to put them back in unless you put back to auto and put all songs back in. What should happen is when you sync with pc the songs you removed from iPhone should automatically be unmarked so they are not synced back in and you know what you have deleted. Why is this so hard for apple to do!!!!!?????

  • When I try to delete a song off my iphone by swiping right to left it doesnt delete, I even tried plugging the usb into my pc and deleting off itunes and i dont find an option to delete it, how can I?

    When I try to delete a song off my iphone by swiping right to left it doesnt delete, I even tried plugging the usb into my pc and deleting off itunes and i dont find an option to delete it, how can I?

    Here's what I did:
    1. I synced my phone to iTunes and under the music tab, I selected sync only checked playlists. I made sure I had none of my playlists selected.
    2. After syncing I ejected the phone, and checked my music app. There now was no music at all on my phone.
    3. Synced it again to iTunes and synced music how I typically do. When it was finished, I checked for the unwanted song, and it was gone.
    Maybe this will work for you as well.

  • I can't delete songs from my iphone 6 plus

    Why can't I delete songs from my IPhone 6 plus?

    Hi theresafromwheeling,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you wish to delete songs from your iPhone 6 Plus. Are you trying to do so via syncing with iTunes, or on your iPhone itself? If it is the latter, it may be as simple as swiping left on a song in the list view:
    Remove a song that’s been downloaded. Swipe left, then tap Delete. The song is removed from iPhone, but remains available from iCloud.
    via http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphb8d9fd5a6
    However, if you have your settings configured to show your iTunes purchases that are not currently downloaded, the song may still appear with a cloud symbol. You can adjust your settings if you wish to hide purchases that have not been downloaded:
    View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.

  • Deleting songs off ICloud

    Hi, new to the boards, if anyone can help me with this question id really appreciate it.
    So....I just recently got a Macbook Pro, and I wanted to delete my music because i have all my misic via CD, so I wanted to start from scratch. I deleted everything on the Itunes Match. But when I plug in my IPhone or IPad all my music is is there (theres a little cloud symbol next to the song i.e. Gone Soveringn by Sone Sour- Cloud Icon). So heres my question? How do i delete everything off my iphone and ipad when theres no music on my mac.
    thanks.

    Hello CandyApple66,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iTunes Match on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5637
    The download icon will appear to the right of any songs or albums that are in the cloud but not downloaded onto your iOS device.
    Syncing music with iTunes will be disabled while iTunes Match is enabled on your iOS device.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Playlists not deleting songs on the iphone

    playlists not deleting songs on the iphone - anyone know what to do?

    You could use 0 instead of 5--I also think this type of workaround is your only option.
    My default rating is 2 for all songs until I've decided I don't like them or that they need to be moved up, and I only sync songs that are 2 or above (actually I generally sync the 3+ smartlist to the phone), so in my system, changing the rating to 0 would automatically get it off the phone on the next sync without me having to think about it anymore. Some variation should work with your system.
    You can ask Apple for a "flag" functionality in iTunes and iPhone--I think it would be useful, too, though unlikely:

    Delete the songs in iTunes then sync the iPhone.
