3) then click "apply"


4) Then go to "On my device" and click "Music"

6) You can "delete" the songs and this should get rid of the dotted circle. You have to manually do each and every dotted circles in your itunes.


7) Remember to unclick the "manually manage Songs and videos" after you are done.
