Anytime I delete a song from my phone then sync with iTunes they are synced back onto my phone.

How do I keep iTunes from restoring the songs I've deleted from my phone?

Can't you choose selected songs to sync, rather than all music?

I have had this same issue, and have pretty much given up trying to find a solution. My solution is to not sync my iPhone with my computer unless I have to. I just use icloud to back up everything.

Check the box in iTunes that states, "sync checked videos and music only". Uncheck the songs in iTunes you don't want on your iPhone.

Just make a new playlist and drag/drop the songs you want to that playlist. This way you have no issues. Click on the new playlist and it should work out...
