Removing items from iTunes
You can remove an item from your iTunes library so that it no longer appears in iTunes. Removing an item from the iTunes library is not the same as permanently deleting it from your hard disk.
To remove an item from iTunes:
- In iTunes, select the item you want to remove, and then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
- In the dialog that appears, click Remove.
- If the item is stored in the iTunes Music folder (in the Music folder in your home folder), you see another message. Do one of the following:
- To leave the item on your hard disk, click Keep Files.
- To delete the item from your hard disk, click Move to Trash. The item is permanently deleted from your hard disk the next time you choose Finder > Empty Trash.
To permanently delete an item stored somewhere other than the iTunes Music folder, drag its file to the Trash (and then choose Finder > Empty Trash). To find out where an item is stored, select the item in iTunes and choose File > Show in Finder (this works only if you haven't already deleted the item from iTunes).
