My version is 12.6.0.100. Yesterday I asked for help and today I ask for more. It is too late to put much time in to get this to work but I want to know anyway.
I want to back up the music I loaded on an old iPhone 4 "just in case" on to my old Nano. It took a lot of frustration before I got things to work on the i4, including last night when I deleted some music from the i4 and it somehow also deleted the original from iTunes on my computer! So I had to start over and reconstruct the music-a playlist-from scratch. I was ready to tear out what little hair I have left...
So I plug in the Nano but I don't see any way to delete a few playlists/albums-that I can add back later-to free up enough room to load the new music on the Nano. On the i4 in Music I can delete the album but I see no option on the Nano, other than "Clear" and "Edit". I used Clear but although it reads there are zero songs, the songs still show up when I plug the Nano in to my computer. On my machine in iTunes I see no option anywhere to delete/clear/whatever the album from the Nano. So the simple question-which is turning to be anything but simple-how do I delete music from the Nano?
Once again, a little help? And again, at this point in time I'm just going to have to rely on the i4, but enquiring minds need to know...
