Songs on my iPhone won't delete?
So, I just updated my iPhone to iOS 7 and I love it. I also had to download iTunes 11, which I'm not too overly fond of. Anyway, I just turned off "show all music" because there are a lot of songs in my iCloud that I don't want on my phone, but even after I turned it off, there's still music from my iCloud on my phone, but it doesn't have the little cloud next to it. The other thing is, it's not letting me delete them from my phone, and they aren't showing up on iTunes when I plug my phone in. They're there, but they won't show up in iTunes and it won't let me delete them from my phone. They play and everything, but I don't want them on my phone. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, how do I fix it?
I had the same problem! Just go to Settings, scroll down to iTunes & App Store, click on your Apple ID, Sign Out, and then log back in. Make sure that you're closed out of your Music while you do this.
Omg i had this same problem, and it was driving me crazy! This fixed it!
It works! Thank you so much for posting this! It's been driving me crazy for months!
OMG THIS FIXED IT AFTER LOOKING OVER THE INTERNET FOR WEEKS!
Thank you for the help! I've been trying to figure this out for a while now!
Worked for 5 seconds and then came right back. What to do?
Didn't work. I still have all the songs. Deleted them from iTunes but I can't them off my phone. I even deleted all music from my phone but the same 4 did not delete.
Worked.
For you all that are having troubles with songs not leaving youre phone, go the same place (settings>iTunes & App Store) and then simply turn off music under the show all column!
Thank you Ashley, it was driving me crazy!
Thank you so much
Logging out of App Store and back in helped me!
Ok… I have tried everything that everyone has said to do and I still can't erase certain songs… What am I suppose to do?
Thank you it worked
Two things to try. First simply close out the Music app or iTunes app (depending on what you have.) If that still doesn't work, Go to Settings>General>Usage>Music. From there you will see your albums. You'll have to find the album of the offending song, go to it, then you will see the list of songs. Find the one you want and slide it to the left and you will see a delete button.
- Why won't my songs delete off my iphone? I have the iPhone 5 and I was trying to get songs on it one day but I ended up taking all the albums from my mums laptop that are boring on to my phone! And they won't delete! They appear up on my songs on the phone but in a grayish writing and I can't click them or do anything with them and Its really annoying!
- Why won't my iphone 4s let me delete songs? Okay so, I've been having the problem where I go to delete songs off my phone and a little cloud with an arrow pointing down pops up. I push that and it re-downloaded on my phone. I go to delete it again to see if that was the issue but the little cloud keeps popping up. What do I do? I've tried to delete it off of iTunes as well but it doesn't work either.
