How to Delete U2′s New Album From Your iTunes Library Forever


If you’re upset that Apple handed you U2′s new album “Songs of Innocence” for free, and totally hate it appearing in your iTunes library, then you can now remove it. Keep in mind, however, that unless you actually download the album for offline playback it really isn’t taking up any space — it’s just an option. Still, if you dislike Bono’s voice and just want to send the album to the trash bin forever, here’s how.
Simply navigate to http://www.itunes.com/soi-remove/ and click “Remove Album.” That’s it. You’ll never have to see “Songs of Innocence” in your library ever again. You only have one month to reconsider turning your back on Bono. Apple said that the album will remain free until October 13, after which customers will need to purchase it.

 

DUN DUN DUN the batteries!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

You the apple guy?
What you do at apple?

 

Did that but still see it on the store as purchased.

 

The specs don't really mean squat. Just like how people like to trash the "crappy" 8mp camera, even though it takes just as good pictures due to other tech that no one understands. Basically all of the flagship phone models are pretty much on par with each other, just pick the one that has the particular features/experience(OS)/ecosystem you prefer.

Here's a good review that does some comparison:

Half my apps dont work anymore due to the "upgrade". Anyone else having problems?

 

I get these questions on a daily basis. I tell people how to make them go away. or find the answers to their questions.

 

also Camera wise. the eye can only detect up to a certain resolution .. many studies by Apple and many other companies and scientist have been done.


although they say you can see the difference. you CANNOT its proven, just in your head. if you have pre conceptions, then of course you will



its just how energy is allocated

 

If apps don't work you will have to see if the apps that are not working are compatible with iOS 8. it can take a few weeks for 3rd party providers to make it compatible, and sometimes they will not make it compatible. but that is up to the developers.



you can try quitting the app re opening the app


shutting your phone off re starting it.


simple steps like that

and if you really really really want to.. don't think it would help. but restore your iPhone as new.

 

Can anyone help me with a full disk issue. I went to update on my mac book pro and it says the disk you are trying to access is full.

My machine is slow as shit and constantly getting that pin wheel deal.

You're going to need to get some stuff off the hard drive Rob. They don't run good when the drive is full and as you've seen you can't update the OS.

 

Hey, does anyone know how to get songs out of the cloud and back into itunes library, so I can listen to my ipod music offline?

 

Shit, I could have stayed in my home thread had I known you knew anything about it

Thanks, I'll PM you and you can explain this techno shit to me. I have hunting stuff to deal with right now. Pew pew

 

so, updated to OS8 a few weeks ago and started having issues with my camera (I have a 5s). it would take pictures and store them upside down or sideways no matter which way I held the camera. when trying to rotate the phone to view the pictures, the photo kept moving with it. took it in this weekend (thought it was a software issue) but ended up being the accelerometer being intermittent. they ordered me a replacement and hopefully can pick it up tomorrow. from what i read online, the 5s uses a different accelerometer and there have been issues with them lately (keep in mind if you start having problems).


after further testing on my own, this isn't limited to just the camera. trying to watch youtube videos or rotate a screen to read a news article, the phone wouldn't rotate the image.

 

Still have a 2007 iMAC for sale for parts. Not sure what is wrong with it.

 

My iPod continues to close the browser every when I view the "funny vids" thread, and intermittently on any TW page. It doesn't seem to happen on any other website, just TW. It does seem to be having problems with Angry Birds also.
Any ideas?
It has iOS 6.1.6

 

I'm worried that my phone won't handle ios8

I've heard others have gone to it and it made their phone noticeably slower so i'm not sure.

My phone is iPhone 5s on iOS 7.1.2



Any thoughts or opinions on the matter?

Yes the iOS update

Could always try to backup your stuff and restore it ... then run the update again on the iPod. Some cases helps the problem.
