So a couple weeks ago, I had deleted an album of music off my iPad. It was a CD, so I couldn't re-download it from iTunes. A couple days ago, out of the blue, it tried to start downloading them again... why, I have no clue, but it did. Because it's form a CD it can't and I always see the little download circle next to all those songs.

Does anyone have any ideas of how I can get these off? They can't be deleted again, because they haven't been downloaded and even if I press the stop button on the download circle, it just comes back again...

Try going to Settings, Music, Show All Music and turn the toggle off. See if that helps. You can also go to Settings, iTunes & App Store and turn off Show All Music toggle and Automatic Downloads Music Toggle.

Oh, I should have tried that. Thanks, it did the trick! :)
