Can delete music...but not the file

Alright, I've tried searching the glorious internet for help, but it don't work. I'm having a problem with iTunes 11.1.3.8 where I can delete music from iTunes perfectly fine, but it won't delete the file from my PC like it used to. And yes, I've tried every possible delete button. All of them. So don't suggest that. Please. Anyways, I have a bunch of duplicates and bad quality songs in my library that I'm trying to clean out. I'd just delete the file myself but since it's a dupe I don't know which one it is and I'm not up to guessing. It's really getting on my nerves and I just want some help before I have an aneurysm. I'll keep you guys updated if I find a solution.

Jib,
When you delete a track from your iTunes library, iTunes will offer to delete the file too, but only if the file is in your iTunes Media folder.  If the file is located elsewhere, iTunes will just leave it alone.
If you have files outside the iTunes Media folder, deletion requires a slightly more complicated procedure:  right-click the track, Show in Explorer, delete the file, then back to your library and delete the library entry.

  • Document library: user can see the metadata but not the file itself

    Hello,
    For a specific document library certain users will have the right to see the metadata but not the file itself. The only solution I can  think of is using a http handler. But I don't know if I can get the user that requests the document.
    Are there any other approaches to this requirement?
    Can I get the username of the user that makes that request?
    I guess that http handler is deployed at the Web application level - am I right?
    Thank you

    Nicolas, thank you for your answer.
    I think this this is not a strong protection. Everybody can istall sp designer or go through UNC path, like \\myserver\documentlibray or \\myserver\lists\mylist and see the documents- and we use unc paths a lot. I don't want to get into trouble when a (wiki)
    leak is made.

    Bridge will do the job. View > Sort > ByType. Then you can choose a group of one type and put the files in a separate folder.

  • Double clicking PS files opens Photoshop but not the file? why?

    Mac OSX 10.4.11 - Adobe Photoshop 8.0
    Since re-installing my system a few months ago double clicking on a photoshop doc will open Photoshop itself but not the file I have clicked on - can't work out why. Can anyone help? Any file wherever its saved the same thing happens.
    Thanks

    And here

  • When I double click a PS file, it opens PS but not the file. Why?

    Since I purchased CS5, I've found that double clicking, or dragging to the Ps (or Ai) icon in the dock will only open the program, but not the file. I then have to go back and double click the file again to bring it up. I've looked in preferences but cannot find a way to resolve this. A friend who also has CS5 does not have this problem.
    Thanks, Neil.

    Have you updated your OS lately?
    Are you on a Mac or a PC?
    That behavior usually is sign of a file vital for Photoshop (and some other Adpobe apps too) missing.
    I've published an old Adobe technote about that here http://www.ninisworld.com/thecorner/tutorials/photoshopopen.html including also the file needed on a Mac.
    If you are on a PC I have no solution to suggest.

    photosbyfry, jonhillenbrand, Many users have reported the same issue and we are working on a fix.
    In the mean while, i would suggest you to follow the suggestions mentioned under the below article and check if that helps.

  • How to temporarily disable on delete cascade but not the constraint

    Hi all
    i would like to know if this is possible
    how to temporarily disable on delete cascade but not the constraint
    i want to delete a row from the primary key table but i dont want the data from the foreign key to be deleted even though there is an on delete cascade set.
    how do i temporarily disable on delete cascade from firing without disabling the constraint
    Rgrds

    There is an option which I've never used before but just read about which is to create your foreign key constraint as on delete SET NULL
    instead of on delete cascade.
    This will allow you to delete a parent and will set the foreign key column values in the child table to nulls
    e.g.
    SQL> create table parent (father varchar2(30) primary key,
      2                       age number);
    Table created.
    SQL>
    SQL> create table child (father varchar2(30) constraint fk references parent(father) on delete set null,
      2                      child varchar2(30),
      3                      age number);
    Table created.
    SQL>                    
    SQL> insert into parent values ('JOHN', 34);
    1 row created.
    SQL> insert into child values ('JOHN', 'SARAH', 10);
    1 row created.
    SQL> insert into child values ('JOHN', 'BILL', 12);                   
    1 row created.
    SQL>
    SQL> commit;
    Commit complete.
    SQL>
    SQL> delete from parent where father = 'JOHN';
    1 row deleted.
    SQL>
    SQL> select * from child;
    FATHER                         CHILD                                 AGE
                                   SARAH                                  10
                                   BILL                                   12

    It all smells like third party software conflict.  Can you think of any candidates for third party stuff that interacts with mail, attachments, the file system?

  • After viewing & closing an image, can delete it, but not its containing folder.

    I’m going through a bunch of old files to see what I can git rid of.
    When I view and then close an image in Photoshop CS6 I can delete the image file, but not its containing folder, which stays locked, even after closing Photoshop.  Restarting and closing Photoshop again usually enables me to delete the folder — but not always.  Sometimes I have to close everything and log out and back in to be able to delete the folder.  (BTW, Acrobat and Illustrator also share this problem.)
    When you have, as I do, hundreds of files to go through, this becomes a real hassle.

    I suspect Photoshop, as a part of the file open operation, has set its current "default directory" to the folder in which you're working.  You could prove that by opening  a file in another folder and seeing if the prior folder is still unable to be deleted.
    Are you using Bridge in any part of this process?  Seems to be a better match for what you're doing.
    If you'd rather not use Bridge, have you considered using Windows Explorer and a viewer application instead of Photoshop to look through these images?  IrfanView or possibly even Windows Photo Viewer with a codec pack come to mind.

  • RAW+JPEG Pairs: How do I delete one, but not the other?

    I import RAW+JPEG. How can I ditch just the JPEG or just the RAW half of the pair? A3 seems to allow display of only one or the other by making it the Master, but how do I get rid of the non-Master?

    There's an easier way:
    Open the Aperture library contents (ctrl-click, select "show pkg contents"), and navigate to masters/year/month/day/downloads, and delete the raw file(s).
    You can view by kind, and delete all the raw files in a project this way; just make sure you haven't assigned any of the raw files as master.
    So far, I have not observed any adverse effects to the Aperture database, but they may be coming. I always archive all the files off-line before importing to Aperture, no nothing is completely irreversible.
    It would still be nice, as another poster said somewhere, to render a raw file as a new jpg master, and then delete the raw, but I use raws so rarely, that deleting the ones I don't use gives me 90% of the disk savings.

  • My computer died rather rapidly so i had no chance to do a backup or anything. now i want to put itunes on my new computer but it will not sync with my ipod. i got my purchased music but not the playlists and it does not sync when i plug it in.

    my computer hard drive died rather suddenly so i had no chance to do a back up or any thing. i put itunes on my new computer and got my purchased music but my ipod will not sync and i cannot get my playlists onto the computer. is there any way to get my playlists on my new computer and also get my ipod to sync. it is a waste of time to purchase new music and i do not want to purchase a new ipod since i have so much memory left on this one.

    Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists  and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
    Thanks to all.
