Introduction: Why you might want to remove all music from your iPod
You may want to delete all music from your iPod for different reasons. For example, you may have recently purchased a new computer and want to start fresh with your iPod, or you may be selling your iPod and want to erase all of your personal data. Whatever the reason, there are a few different ways that you can delete all of the music from your iPod.
How to remove all music from your iPod using iTunes
If you’ve decided that you want to start fresh with your iPod and remove all of the music, you can do so by using iTunes. Once you connect your iPod to your computer, open up iTunes and click on the device icon in the upper left corner. Next, click on the “Summary” tab and scroll down to the options section. There, you will see a checkbox next to “Manually manage music and videos.” Check that box and then click on the “Apply” button in the lower right corner.
Now that iTunes is set up to manually manage your music, you can simply select all of the songs and delete them. To do this, go to your music library (by clicking on “Music” in the sidebar) and then press the “Command” key (on a Mac) or the “Control” key (on a PC) and click on each song you want to remove. Once all of the songs are selected, right-click or Control-click on one of them and choose “Delete from Library.” iTunes will ask if you’re sure you want to delete the selected songs; click “Delete Songs” to confirm.
Finally, go back to the device summary page and click on the “Sync” button in the lower right corner. This will remove all of the music from your iPod.

3. Click the Summary tab.
4. In the Options section, click the “Restore” button.
5. A warning message will appear asking if you’re sure you want to delete allmusic from your iPod and restore it to its original factory settings. Click “Restore” again to confirm and all music will be removed from your iPod.
How to remove all music from your iPod using a third-party tool
There are a few different ways that you can remove all music from your iPod. One option is to use a third-party tool like iDownloader, which will allow you to delete all music from your iPod with just a few clicks.
Another option is to manually delete all of the songs from your iPod by going into the iPod’s “Settings” menu and selecting the “Music” option. From there, you can simply delete all of the songs that are listed.
If you want to keep some of your music but want to get rid of the rest, you can also use iTunes’ “Smart Playlists” feature to create a playlist of only the songs that you want to keep on your iPod.
How to prevent music from being added to your iPod in the future

Maybe you’ve decided to switch to a different genre, or maybe you want to make room for new music. Whatever the reason, removing music from your iPod is actually a pretty simple process.
There are two ways that you can go about removing music from your iPod. The first is to delete the individual songs that you don’t want anymore.
