Extremly Confusing Library Problem - Please Help

Ok, I am so confused by this. I drag my music folder to my itunes library and all my music is added with one HUGE problem. Randomly I get anywhere from 2 to 7 or 8 copies of each one of my songs. Only for particular albums though. Some are fine and there is only one of each song, but others I've got like 6 copies of the same song! They are the exact same song, they aren't from different albums or anything like that, they are somehow continually duplicating themselves and I don't know what to do. I tried using the Add to Library... too with the same results.
Any idea how I can fix this so I only have one copy of each of my songs in my library? Any solutions would be greatly appreciated thanks a lot in advance.

Keep in mind that iTunes is an extremely sophisticated visual and organizational aid, but the songs themselves are on your hard drive. It's possible that you might have more than one copy of the same song on your hard drive and each of those copies has a different name. It is also possible that the same song with the same file name is duplicated in several different folders. Another possibility is that you have the same song in more than one format (such as mp3, wav, aiff, m4a).
In order to clean up your hard drive and hence your iTunes, find the songs on your hard drive in the Finder or by getting info in iTunes by right clicking on the song and see if you have the same song under a different name. For instance, if you have, say, "Midnight Rambler" by the Rolling Stones duplicated in your iTunes applications, it might turn out that you have 06MidnightRambler-RollingStone.mp3, MidnightRamblerStones.mp3, and RollingStones-MidnightRambler.m4a. Or it is in multiple folders, say "Rolling Stones" and "Let it Bleed."
It appears that the newest version of iTunes gives you the option of deleting the song itself from your hard drive (moving it to the trash), as opposed to just removing it from the library.

X-Fi Extreme Music Mic Problems - Please help

Hi all,?i have just purchased an OEM X-Fi extreme Music crad, i'm having major problems getting the mic to work, i cannot find anywhere on the console to switch between mic input or digital i/o, the audio console is very basic & gives me no flashy options like mixers etc. The card came with no drivers & the creative ones from the website only give me a very basic console setup. The mic will not work at all & as i use voip every day it's driving me nuts, is there more software i can download to get full control of the i/o port?I really love the sound quality of this card & i don't want to go back to my Audigy card just so i can use the mic!?Thansk in advance for any help you can give me, i've spent hours searching the net without success.

Guys, I found another user and what he said to do worked!!! I have copied the information below:
This was 1 of the things that happend to me too, the other one was that at the bottom of the itunes page were it says all the memory info, it marked that I had over 3gb of other memory wich I didn't.
Anyways what I did was to unmark the calendar, contacts etc. ( so that they wont sync with the computer ), pressed apply, then I marked all of them again, apply again and for last I pressed Sync wich is at the bottom right coner by the apply botton.
I'm not sure that had anything to do with it but it worked, my music appeard both of my itunes playlists and the ones I bought in itunes. Also the other memory dissapeard and it's all good.
I'm not sure this will help you but thats my 5 cents, if the problem continues its better to call customer service and ask for a technician.
Hope your problem gets solved. Have a nice day.

P6N Lots of problems please help

P6N Lots of problems please help
The setup is the following:
P4 D935 3.2gHz
P6N Diamond MS-7320 Bios 1.3V
Corsair XMS2-6400C4DHX
NX8600GT-TD512EZ/D2
Seagate Barracuda 7200 250Gb SataII 16Mb
Akasa 460W Dual Rail
Please help I have lots and lots of problems with lockups that can happen any time post , bios , loading vista and sometimes during OS. Some times will work ok play games etc. Already tried different combinations fitting the mem modules even tried and some pc4200 modules same problems. Spent lots of hours clocking the mems with different settings but non is stable. I am not interested in overcloking just to make it stable to start with. When is actually running is fine is more than enough for me. Already looked to lots of posts on the msi forum but… Since the cpu is old can I go back on an older bios version???? The Corsair modules have to run at 2.1V or is it possible to use them with slower setting. So confused so lost ….. please HELLPPPPP
Any help greatly appreciated.

please, don't buy any more unneded parts. first find the problem then buy if no solutions available.
One thing I find with BIOS issues is to do a full clear.
1. disconnect the power cord from the power supply(turn switch to off if there is one.
2. hit the power switch to clear the power out of the system.
3. set the cmos jumper to clear and leave there if one is available.
4. Pull the battery.
5. carefully short out the battery connector on the motherboard to drain any power left.
6. press the clear cmos button and hold for 30sec minimum, if you didn't have a jumper to set.
7. replace battery, move jumper back, plug in power cord, turn on power sipply switch.
Now it should hopefully power up. go into BIOS and load optimized results. hit save and exit and when it gets back to the post screen, go back into bios and set your normal MB settings(ie. set boot devices, boot order, disable sound if using sound card, etc...)
go into your H/W Monitor section and list the CPU Vcore settings to make sure it is getting the power it needs. I just looked it up and it's suppose to run from 1.225v - 1.325v.
also, try your most generic ram you have with auto settings. the faster the ram usually the more volts they need and default volts are 1.8v for ram and sometimes faster chips have issues with lower volts.
Let me know how this works for you.
-=Mark=-
ps. make sure everything is unplugged from the computer you don't need. just cpu, 1 stick of ram, and video. and of course keyboad and mouse. Please make a signature with all your systems specs including make and model numbers. I hate guessing at solutions and I'd hate to see you buy any more unneccessary parts because of lack of information.

After Aperture 3 update, I can't access old libraries. It tells me to close and relaunch but when I do this it just opens again on the same library. Please help!

I have just downloaded the latest iOS update for my computer, and then I was unable to use Aperture until I upgraded its software also. I did this, and it seemed to work fine on relaunch with new version - the last library I had open worked fine. BUT yesterday I tried to open a different library and I got a message saying
"the selected library is from an older version of Aperture and requires a relaunch to switch"
I click the relaunch button and it relaunches but it just opens on the same library again. I don't know how to make it relaunch properly with the different library. Please help!! Thanks

TThe message is a bit deceptive the old libraries need to be upgraded before they can be used. To upgrade quit Aperture select one of the old libraries with the Finder and double click it. This will open Aperture on that library and ask if you want to upgrade it.
WWhile the procedure is safe it is always a good idea to have a backup of the libraries before doing this.

Hi, i had the same problem. Try to find the file "apple" or "itunes" don't know it anymore exactly. Ahm well you need to delet any information or just plug in your iphone into an other computer. important is that your iphone never has been pluged in this computer before. This was what i did, and it worked!

With iTunes 11 on PCs the drop-down menus are hidden by default - control-B should get the menus to show

The error is a very basic one - the sapmsPRD service is not known. You will have to go to <NT_ROOT>\system32\drivers\etc and add the entry sapmsPRD 3600 to this file.
This is basically telling the requester at what port to look for the message server.

Hi
You should make a mapping for the service sapmsPRD in your /etc/services file (On Windows: C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32DRIVERSETCservices). If your instance number is 00 you will have to add the following entry:
sapmsPRD 3600/tcp
Good luck!
