I dont use Icloud but there are songs in there and i can not delete them from my Iphone. I opened Icloud on my desktop but there is no music option and from there it took me to a website also no music option. No songs in itunes either so how do i delete songs from Icloud?
iPhone 4, iOS 5
Settings >> music turn off iTunes Match.
Settings >> music turn off iTunes Match.
Its turned off. Show music however deleted some of them but there are still some on there.
I guess nobody has figured out how to do this on the new version yet?
From your iPod, go to Settings -> Music -> Show All Music. Switch the Show All Music switch off, so that only the music you've downloaded onto your device will be shown. Worked for me.
I mentioned that above that removed some of them but there are still 3 left, how do you delete them from icloud, when icloud doesnt even show a music section?
I tried syncing it because i dont have any music stored in itunes and it didnt do anything either. The music thats on there is stuff that ive downloaded a long time ago from itunes.
I found this link but it doesnt help if there isnt any music in itunes to delete.
Music that has played from purchased will be downloaded. You'll need to go to settings > general > usage > music and swipe to delete all music from your iPhone. After that it should no longer show up when "show all" is turned off.
It says No Data already.

I'm having a similar problem. Music from the cloud is showing up on my iPhone that I don't want. So if I delete all my music on my iPhone, then put it all back on (with show all turned off this time) it will only put on the songs I want to sync and not all music from the cloud?

That is what worked for me.
I made sure "show all" and iTunes Match is turned off under
settings > music
and
settings > iTunes & App Store

To completely delete the songs from your account you apparently need to be an iTunes match subscriber. Paying $24.99 for the ability to delete free songs I don't want didn't appeal to me.
Hiding them on my account in iTunes didn't work (aggravating).
I made sure "show all" and iTunes Match is turned off under
settings > music
and
settings > iTunes & App Store.
And deleted every song from my iPhone. You may be able to swipe to remove individual songs, but I couldn't when I first tried so I went the settings > general > usage > music route. If you can swipe to remove individual songs from your iPhone try that method instead.
Again, if show all is on in any of those places I mentioned, you will still see songs you do not want available on your iPhone.
If anybody is still interested here is how to completely get rid of your music from icloud.
Go to the itunes store on you iphone and log out. Then log back into the itunes stores. The songs will be deleted from your itunes. It worked for me. Good luck!!!
This worked! I just logged out, then back in and everything is fixed.
Thanks sparks1311 for the tip. And thanks for all the responses. Very cool people were so willing to help.
I've been dealing with this issue for a few weeks. Thanks for the help getting all that music, that I wish I never bought back in the day, off of my phone for now. Way to be!
