HT2905 how to get rid of duplicate songs on the new itunes 11

how do i rid duplicate songs on the new itunes?

Happened to me a while ago i removed all my music from my ipad and all the duplicates were still on it so i deleted them 
1. plug in youre device and sync with itunes
2. MAKE SURE ALL YOURE MUSIC IS SAVED AND IS IN YOURE ITUNES ACCOUNT
3. go to music on youre device and uncheck the box and it'll ask if you want to remove all music click yes
4. after the sycn check youre device and the duplicates should still be on youre device delete them and re-sync and  you shouldn't have duplicates any more
I believe this happens when you buy a song on youre device then sync with youre pc
hope this helped

    Hi,
    From view menu, you can select show duplicate item. If you hold option key whilst selecting view menu, show exact duplicates becomes available.

  • I can't get rid of duplicate songs on my iphone or in the itunes.Help

    I cannot get rid of duplicate songs on my iphone or on the itunes player on my computer. I also cannot get my songs to play on my iphone in shuffle mode. It just plays the same song over and over again. Any lovely geeks out there?

    Welcome to the forums.
    If you have duplicate songs in iTunes you ought to be able to find them by using the "Find Duplicates" function and erase them by highlighting them all and pressing delete. Remember, though, that songs are not necessarily recognized as duplicates if they don't have the same tags (that is, a song can be duplicated but with a slightly different song title and iTunes cannot recognize it as a duplicate and it would be up to you to delete it manually).
    Once you've cleaned up iTunes it will automagically clean up your iPhone when you sync it. So work on getting iTunes in order first.
    People have complained about shuffle mode on the iPhone. One thing you can do is to create a smart playlist that selects the songs you want and does it randomly. You may have to create one or more of these depending on how you listen to music, but they will indeed give you "shuffled" songs.

  • Any way to search for and get rid of duplicate songs?

    Is there any way to recognize and then get rid of duplicate songs? I copied some songs from a different computer and ended up duplicating some of my existing songs. Any way to search for and then get rid of the duplicates?

    The apple algorithm for detecting duplicates is not great. I did this yesterday on a library which had got bloated by various itunes 'organisations' and had 15000 songs in it and downloaded idupe. It seemed to work very well and got me down to 10,000 songs. 8USD shareware.

    Do you mean iTunes library?
    iTunes account is what you use to make iTunes purcahses.
    iTunes library is what is on your computer.
    It says my phone can only be set up woth one itunes account. How do I remove the previous account?
    No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
    Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.

  • How to get rid of duplicate files in Windows Media Player 11, I am seeking an answer if at all possible.

    I don't know if this is the appropriate forum to ask this question....if it is not please guide me to the correct support forum. I am just trying to find out if there is an easier way of getting rid of duplicate files in my Windows Media Player 11.
    Also how do I prevent my Media player from obtaining all these duplicate files from other libraries.  I have iTunes installed and my home network has four other computers belonging in the home group that have all their own respective music libraries. 
    I guess I was naïve but I thought that when Windows Media Player is out searching other libraries it would know not to take duplicates of songs that it has already.  Enough said .....if anyone out there can help me that would be great.  I have in
    the past spent many hours manually deleting songs from my music files and it really got old.

  • HT1417 how to get rid of duplicates in itunes 11

    I cannot find where to get rid of duplicates in the new version of itunes, which I cannot stand.  Can I go back to the old one, where it would let you find duplicates and delete them?

    OK I understand. Many of the old iTunes 10 features are still present, but they have been hidden by default.
    Bring back your Sidebar with control S and your menu bar with control B. There are icons for them but the control keys are easier to describe.
    The View menu will then be visible, where you can customize your viewing preferences and make it appear a little more familiar.
    You don't have to remove the old version to update it.
    Reverting to iTunes 10 is possible but very tedious.
