Delete all playlists

Hello psbarrett13,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!

We understand from your post that you would like to delete whole playlists instead of one song at a time. You can delete all the songs from your device using the steps below:

5. Tap Delete."

Best Regards.

I have the same problem. Out of the blue, Apple Music made 16 or so duplicates of most of my playlists. It is taking me forever to delete the playlists one at a time. Why can't there be a command for deleting more than one playlist at a time.

psbarrett13,

What happens when you try to delete the playlist as described below?

"Delete a playlist

Touch and hold the playlist, then tap Delete from Library.

You can also tap the playlist, tap , then tap Delete from Library."

Take Care.

Do you and your daughter share an Apple ID? If so, you may want to have her create her own Apple ID and then use Family Sharing. If you are not using the same Apple ID, then she should be able to go into her Profile and stop sharing the playlists with you. This article has steps on how to stop sharing playlists:
