How to delete songs off of my iPhone that I downloaded off of iCloud?
I have a few songs on my iPhone that I don't want but just can't get rid of. I was looking through the list of purchases on the AppleID account that I share with my brother and sister. My sister was making some weird purchases, so i selected some to listen to and they are weird Emo bands. My brother downloaded Hot for Teacher by Van Halen, a song which I already had, so I listened to it to see if he had downloaded it because it was higher quality.
Well, apparently just listening to those songs for a few seconds told my iphone that I wanted them downloaded onto my phone. And for some asinine reason, I CAN't DELETE THEM. When I look at my phones list of songs, All the other songs have the option to swipe them to the left, and then press the delete button to get rid of them. I can even delete other iTunes store purchases that were downloaded to my phone via my computer.
But for some god damn reason, I can't delete these songs that were never on my phone until I downloaded them off icloud. I sync music to my phone by adding all the songs I want to a playlist and syncing it with that playlist. But these songs just downloaded to my phone, and not to the playlist, where I could have just removed it and solved the problem.
So I can't delete them from my phone and it seems like my laptop has no recognition of them being on the phone at all. How the hell do I delete these?!
Since you got them off of iCloud try disabling iCloud? You just log out of your iCloud account in settings to do that.
Try sliding your finger across the song. A red 'delete' sign should come up. Press the delete sign and it should delete
