Why can't anyone tell me how to remove all those little "!" in the left column all at once or at least sort them so I can mark them and then delete them?

This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.
If, on the otherhand, you've been cleaning up your media from Explorer rather than iTunes and just want to eliminate the now broken links, use Tunes Folder Watch with its option to check for dead tracks on startup.

    The new Business Volume Purchase Program is pretty interesting...it can be used to centrally purchase and distribute paid ( not free) items from the AppStore.  We are getting setup to use it.  You can keep an eye on licenses etc.  You can also use a single centralized form of payment.

  • In the libary of iPhoto I do have double pictures only in the year 2006. Can someone please tell me how to remove the double pictures. I did rebuilt the libary but that solution did not help me any further.

    In the libary of iPhoto I do have double pictures only in the year 2006. Can someone please tell me how to remove the double pictures. I did rebuilt the libary but that solution did not help me any further.

    I think the warning is very clear.
    What warning? Where do you say that this plan you suggest will lose at least some, and possibly a whole lot of metadata, plus  the original files of edited photos. This is significant dataloss. And you should warn people that this is the case.
    While your metadata and originals may not be important to you, that is not necessarily the case for other users.
    Fourthly, and last, cleaning the iPhoto library should be done at least once per year
    This is nonsense. The iPhoto Library has no need of "cleaning" and certainly not in any way that trashes a whole lot of data.
    I'm very impressed that you assess the application based on the sound of the name. It's not a common way to review applications, but I'm sure it has some merit.
    FWIW it has been recommended on this - and other - sites for many years and has proven safe and effective.

    >> then I get a completely blue screen.
    That probably means that you're not looking at a bug in Photoshop, but a problem with a driver - and the most likely cause would be your video card driver.
    And sure enough, your video card driver is almost 2 years out of date.
    Please go to NVidia's website and get the latest driver - then follow their directions for installation (so you don't get bits of old driver left over).

  • I want to dump my photos from my phone onto my pc automatically, and then delete them from my phone. How do I do this?

    My wife and I both have an iphone 4s. We have been taking photos, and now the space on our phones is maxed out. Is there a way for me to automatically dump the photos onto my computer, and delete photos on my phone so that I hog up the space with photos? It seems like this shouldn't be complicated, but for some reason, I can't figure out how to copy the photos to my pc, and then delete them from my phone.

    Connect the phone to your computer and open whatever image capture application you have on the computer. An application you use to transfer photos from a camera to your PC should work with the iPhone. The computer will recognize the phone as a camera and allow you to copy photos to the computer, you can then keep or delete the photos from the iPhone.

  • Can I save my photos from my iPhone to iCloud/iTunes, and then delete them from my iPhone to  free up space on my iPhone?I would  still like to keep them somewhere where they can  be accessed.

    Can I save my photos from my iPhone to iCloud/iTunes, and then delete them from my iPhone to  free up space on my iPhone?I would  still like to keep them somewhere where they can  be accessed.

    One option is to turn on iCloud Photo Library on the phone and go to Settings > iCloud > Photos and turn on "Optimize iPhone Storage." Then you don't delete the photo from the phone but it does occupy significantly less space. More information in iCloud Photo Library FAQ - Apple Support

  • How do I archive emails in mail and then delete them from my inbox?

    I need to archive a bunch of emails for a project, and I know that if I put them in a mailbox and then delete them from my inbox, they're gone. So, what's the most efficient way to save 100s of emails that will eventually need to be filed within a project file?

    // Sample code
    List resList = new Vector();
    MyObject obj = null;
    while(rs.next()) {
        obj.setXXX(rs.getXXX(i));  // Get from the resultset and set to the object
        resList.add(obj);
    // At the end of the loop, you have a Vector of objects holding data.What do you mean by returning Strings separately?

  • If I delete my songs from my "Downloads" folder, have them in my "Trash" and then delete them from my "Trash", will I still be able to play the songs on my iTunes or will they be deleted on my iTunes as well?

    I want to clear some space on my Mac since it is filling up and I don't have much room left on it. I want to delete all my songs from my "Downloads" folder and then delete them from my "Trash" to free up space however, I'm worried that if I do this then iTunes will not play any of the songs I deleted.
    Will I still be able to play my songs on iTunes even if they are not in my "Downloads" or "Trash" folders?
    Thank you.

    All tracks in iTunes (if you use default settings) should be in various artist and album folders in the main media folder in the iTunes folder. You can right click a track to reveal its location in Finder.  If there's a copy there then it doesn't really matter what you do with other copies.
    I have never downloaded from iTunes but I thought it placed files directly in the correct locations, or is this some other downloads folder to which you are referring?
    Normally if you download a file from another source and add it to iTunes by dragging it there, or using the Add To menu item, it places a copy of the file in iTunes.  You can discard the original, but if you're concerned you can check which copy iTunes is actually using as above.
