How can I get rid of duplicated tracks from my iPhone?

Hello! I recently acquired an iPhone and have been adding albums to it from my iTunes library. I then started adding artwork to my albums on my iTunes library to make it look more interesting upon playback. However, this has somehow resulted in many tracks being duplicated on my iPhone - even though no duplicated tracks can be seen in my iTunes library for me to unclick and try to resolve manually. My playlists in iTunes appear tidy, and have been re-synching these along with the newly acquired artwork to my iPhone. But everytime I do this it just adds more and more duplicated tracks to my iPhone. I am becoming frustrated. Is there any way I can get rid of these duplicated tracks from my iPhone without deleting my iTunes library?

remove them from your playlists in iTunes and then sync.

How can I get rid of a message from iCloud?

On my iPhone 5 a white box appears saying "Sign in to iCloud". When I tap Cancel the box keeps returning and I can't use my iPhone. I did a system reset and that did not do any good. How can I stop this message from reappearing?

Morning5,
you can get rid of a message asking for a keychain password by resetting your keychain.

How can i get rid of smart search from safari

Every time that i search on safari or google chrome my search engine comes up to be
something called smart search?

Hi!
Please follow the advise given by Linc Davis. It worked for me.
This will be my last comment in the thread, and it's addressed to anyone who has the same problem as the original poster. If you have a different problem, search the site for answered questions similar to yours, and if you don't find a solution that way, start your own thread.
You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
          com.something.daemon.plist
and
           com.something.helper.plist
Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
/Library/LaunchAgents
In this folder, there may be a file named
          com.something.agent.plist
where the string something is the same as before.
If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
Open this folder:
/Library/Application Support
If it has a subfolder named just
           something
where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
Finally, in this folder:
/System/Library/Frameworks
there may an item named exactly
            v.framework
It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
          Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
          Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

How can I get rid of yahoo calendar on my iPhone 5c? Each time I make an entry, I have to turn off yahoo and turn on iCloud.

Each time I add an event on my iPhone 5c calendar, I have to click off Yahoo calendar and click on iCloud or the event will not register. Should I permanently delete the Yahoo calendar under settings or is there a way to default to the iCloud calendar? Thank you.

Thank you Mac.Dee and lizdance40. I am a techo-tot and am just learning my way around the system. I made both of these changes and my calendar works just the way I want it to.

How do I get rid of the "other" from my iPhone?

I know this question has been asked a lot. I've tried deleting all but my most important text messages, deleting apps I hardly use, limiting the music I keep on my phone, and I always keep my pictures before 300.
The "other" on my phone is at 3.81 GB which I know is way too much. I am constantly deleting things from my phone so that I have space if I need it but the other is very annoying.
I read somewhere that if you do a complete restore and don't use a backup, the other goes away. The only thing is that I have conversations that I need to save and if I restore my phone without a backup, I will lose them.
Anyone have any other ideas? Or any way to save my messages without the backup?

Actually, "Other" can never go away. It includes, among other things, the iOS itself. The smallest it can get is roughly 1 gigabyte.
"Other" includes deleted emails that are still residing in your trash, as well as actual email messages.
You might have one or more corrupted apps on your machine. Carefully consider which apps you restore once you perform the cleanup, or the "Other" will once again grow large.

HT201269 How can I get my backed up notes from my iPhone 4s (itunes, not icloud) onto my old iPhone 3GS?

My phone was stolen. I didn't have an icloud email address, so everything but my notes were synced from the phone to the icloud. However, I did have an itunes backup of the phone. I would like to take the notes from that backup and put them on my old iPhone 3GS. The problem is that the old operating system won't let me restore from the 4S backup. I have to use the 3GS until I can get a new phone in a few months and I need my notes. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks for any help.
Jeremy

It will ONLY be where you put it.
If you failed to maintain a backup copy, then it is gone.
If you had been syncing your notes to back it up, you can use 3rd party software like iPhone notes recovery to try to recover some of your notes from your backup. However,
if your audio books are not fully included in the backup (they are only backed up as necessary to maintain call favorites and recent call lists). This article will show what's
included in the backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946.

How can i get rid of pops/ticks on certain tracks in logic7

how can i get rid of pops/ticks on certain tracks in logic 7

I don't know if I can help you with what's been recorded but may be able to assist in getting rid of the problem.
1. Don't know if the MOTU has a reset procedure on the rack unit, if so, do that first.
2. Turn off/disable wireless if you're using it.
3. In Logic raise the I/O buffers to 128
4. If you have a different slot, move the 424 card. One slot was noisy on many Macs.
(5) As mentioned, Make sure the audio interface is using Internal clock.

My iTunes music folder is almost 1.5x the size on disc as my iTunes library. How can I get rid of this extra data?

When I look at the iTunes music folder in Windows Explorer, it shows as 28.0 GB. In the iTunes library, it says my music is 18.3 GB. I would like to get my 10 gigs back.
I've tried to add the media folder to my library - it just duplicated maybe 10 songs, didn't add any new ones. This suggests that there isn't any extra music in the folder. So why is it 10 GB larger? How can I get rid of the extra non-music data?

Apparently there are some mp3 files that aren't adding despite importing the folder...
That is actually a very common problem, due to iTunes being strict/finicky/incompetent (pick your own interpretation) about slight variations in MP3 formats. The problem can usually be corrected by treating the files with a 3rd party tag cleanup program, such as MP3 Validator.
i don't know how much of the missing 9.7 GB this will apply to, but definitely worth a try.

How can I get rid of the display of the last played music-title

How can I get rid of the display of the last played music-title
When playing a music-title the name of the title and it's progress is displayed in the box at the top of iTunes, even if the music is already stopped or ended. This display is impeding f.i. when copying music-albums to iPhones and watching the progress. Can anyone tell me please how to make the display of the last played music-title disappear?
Thank you very much in advance.
Hans M

OK, thank you very much, fiend.
However: Since yesterday afternoon my e-mail-acount is being flooded with 50+ e-mails every few hours which are not at all related to my question. I'm copying the properties of one e-mail as a sample. Could you please organize this flood to stop or tell me what to do?
Thank you very much!

How can I get rid of unsolicited adverts on iMac?

How can I get rid of unsolicited adverts on iMac?

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Take an inventory of the extensions you've installed, if any. Some Safari extensions are adware or spyware. Read the privacy policies or terms of use carefully. Remove any that you don't really need or aren't sure about.
One extension that you may want to install is called "Ghostery." It blocks many tracking cookies. But there are reports that it sometimes causes Safari to crash. I use it and have had no problems.
In the Safari preferences dialog, select the Privacy tab. Here you have the option to remove data, such as cookies, stored on your computer by web servers. You can remove all such data, or remove only some of it by clicking the Details button. The other settings are pretty much self-explanatory.
Consider using ad-blocking software such as "GlimmerBlocker," which also blocks some forms of JavaScript abuse that can be used to track you. It's only suitable for advanced users, and it may block some web content that you want to see.

How can I get rid of phantom star ratings in iTunes (10.6.3)? They serve no purpose that I can see.

How can I get rid of phantom star ratings in iTunes (10.6.3)? They serve no purpose that I can see. thx

After you sign in with the old ID and are presented with the option to keep the information on the iPad, you should say yes to that. Then you should be able to delete the account on the device. After you delete the account, you can - or you should be able to - sign in with the new Apple ID.
I tried these very same steps on my Pod Touch and it worked exactly the way that I'm describing. When you sign in again with the new ID, you will be given the option to merge Reminders, Bookmarks, Etc, with those in iCloud.com. I selected the option to merge all of the information. Nothing was duplicated and everything was exactly as it was before I deleted the iCloud account.
So ... sign into your new ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store. Tap the old ID and sign out. Then sign in with the new ID. Then delete the old iCloud account like I explained above and then sign in with the new Apple ID, all of your purchased content and iCloud content should be good to go.

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper 2.0.1
    2. AppDelete 3.2.6
    3. Automaton 1.50
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner 2.1.0
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash 1.8.2
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller 1.15.1
10. Spring Cleaning 11.0.1
