    Hello jdgrullon,

     

    If you're wanting to delete a song from iTunes on your computer, please follow the directions outlined below.

     

    Mac or PC

    1. Open iTunes.
    2. From the Library pop-up menu, choose Music.
    3. Click Songs in the navigation bar.
    4. Click the song you want to delete.
    5. Press Delete on your keyboard.

    In iTunes 11 or later, the album cover art will remain visible, but a Download  icon will appear on it to allow you to download the item again (in countries that support this).

    Note: If you didn't purchase a song from the iTunes Store, you can't download it again for free from iTunes in the Cloud. You might want to back it up somewhere on your computer.
