Deleteing exact duplicates more than one at a time?

I am able to pull up exact duplicates but am I only supposed to delete the extras or all on the list? Is there a way to delete all at once or do I have to do it one by one?

You want to delete all but one of each repeating group. It becomes more complicated because sometimes there are two links to a single file, other times there are multiple files on the hard drive with the same audio content and tag properties.  Depending on which it is you either do or do not want to delete the file when deleting the entry from the library.
See this  thread which discusses some causes, gives a strategy for a manual removal and explains the ideas behind a script called DeDuper for doing it automatically.

  • On 4S how can I delete emails more than one at a time in my Inbox

    Just got the iPhone 4S (first ever iPhone for me).  When I have emails in my Inbox and I want to delete them is there a way to delete more than one at a time?  I know when I go to the Trash it lets me "delete all".  I get quite a bit of emails and it's a huge waste of time to only be able to delete one at a time in the Inbox.

    I'm trying to find a way of clicking one box/area and it deleting all the emails in the Inbox.
    It can't be done from the iPhone.  You could use Safari, access your webmail and delete from there, if that's easier.

  • HT1725 I can no longer download music from itunes store.  Happened when I was Downloading from songs dragged from itunes store to a playlist.  I tried to downloaad more than one at a time.  The download stopped.  Now I can not download at all.

    I can no longer download music from itunes store.  It happened when I was trying to download songs dragged into a playlist.  I tried to download more than one at a time.  It stopped.  Now I cant download at all.  Even rebooted my machine. 

    OK thanks I will try that. I just don't understand why I still can't download new videos as I've deleted the software I installed and I've changed my camera settings back to what they were before when I could download into iPhoto. I perhaps should have mentioned it's iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    It could be as simple as longer (larger) videos - iPhoto does not always handle larger video files well
    Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    iPhoto is not a download and view program - it is a photo management database program that imports photos - Image Capture is a download program - Preview is a view program
    The default program to download your photos is set in the preference panel of either iPhoto or image capture

  • Multiple AirPort Express units - use more than one at a time?

    If I connect three Airport Express units in three different rooms, can I use more than one at a time?
    Can I choose to only use 2 out of the 3 at one time?
    Thanks.

    Yes. With iTunes 6.0.2 or later, you can send an AirTunes stream to multiple remote AirPort Express units, provided that each AirPort Express has the latest AirPort firmware. The maximum number of remote AirPort Express units is three to six in typical conditions. The number that works for you will depend on your environmental conditions (such as building composition and local radio interference), distance to the remote AirPort Express units, and available network capacity relative to your other usage.

  • Why won't Garage band let you open more than one project a time..

    Why won't Garageband let you open more than one project a time???? If thats the way its is set up...that is really lame. Even the worst audio programs allow you to run a few projects at a time.
    I recorded a gig the other night... then I dumped the whole set on to one track. When I wanted to copy and paste individual songs into their own project it made me close the current project. Is there a way around this???
    Joe

    Heh, heh. Yes, this is true. Alas... BUT, if you want to compare one project with another, it can be done.
    There is another advantage to making another copy of GarageBand. I created a copy and call it "GarageSymphony" that contains all my instrument specific icons for orchestral packs. This way I do not mess up the GarageBand application.
    I would not be surprised to find multiple windows become available in GB4. I was more than pleased to find this change in iMovie 6.

  • IPad - with movie clips - how can I play more than one at a time?

    iPad2.  I post short movie clips via iTunes to the Photo catagory.  I can play each of these clips by selecting the clip and pressing the start arrow, only the selected clip will play.  How can I select a group of movie clips and have them play with only one selection.  Like a "slide show" but for movie clips???

  • Importing more than one at a time

    when I try to use the option to import files that are on my computer already it only allows me to do one at a time I have tried both a shift and a control key to try to get more than one file at a time and it does not work so from what I have read i used the add folder option to add music to my library. the problem is then that if I want to try to "get CD Track names" it says this can only be used on files that were imported in iTunes please try importing the file again. I do not want to have to do a file at a time just to use some of the fetures is there a easier way?

    Either use finder to drag and drop those tracks onto
    "Library" in iTunes' left "Source" column or from
    iTunes Menu Files use "Add to Library ..." then
    navigate to a folder that keep a yoru tracks and
    select that folder.
    This did it! I was doing an "import" which would only let me do one song at a time. But the "add to library" and the drag and drop both worked. Thanks!!!

  • Adding More Than one at a time

    Can you add more than one chapter marker at a time? I have a large project that I would like to add a chapter marker every five mintues - automatic would be nice. Can FCE add chapter like that?

    Thanks... I was hoping there was a plugin or something.

  • Why am I unable to open multiple tabs in the browser? It all of a sudden refused to let me open more than one at a time.

    While on the internet, I tried to open two tabs, but it won't open any more for me. I tried right clicking and opening that way, but it won't let me. I removed Mozilla Firefox from my computer and re-downloaded it, but it still won't let me open more than one tab. It's happened to two of my computers now, and nothing works for either one except opening in safe mode every time.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • WRT54G wireless - but not on more than one device at time- and now not at all

    Since changing internet providers we have had major issues with our router and trying to get the wireless to work with more than one computer at a time. I am gathering it's an IP address conflict, we have had this message pop up sometimes-- but am not sure how to go about fixing it. I have a linksys WRT54G, 6 weeks out of warrenty ( I tried to call for support and was told they would *gladly* help me for $30-$40-- which really bugs me as this was the first time I EVER called. We should be allowed at least one free call no matter how long out of warrenty- end rant )
    Anyway--  I have two laptops, Netflix via WII, and an I-touch. For awhile, one computer could access wireless, sometimes both would, sometimes none would- as has been the problem in the last couple of days. It seems one computer would be more consistent in "grabbing" access- don't know if this is important to know or not:)) I tried to look to see if his computer had a static ip address - but couldn't find any info to support that theory...
    I doubt it is a router failure as it was working fine with the previous interent provider- but now it is not--  I have tried to reset the router and reconfigure via the webbased setup pages.  Nothing I am trying is working, not real surprising-- as I really don't know what I am doing--
    I don't think it is the internet provider as internet access works fine hardwired trhough the modem via the router...
    Can someone ** please** help walk me through this??
    thanks
    Tammy

    Thanks for the reply--  The issue has been solved.....
    I found an online manual and was in the process of reinstalling the wrt54g cd - starting over from the beginning. I felt since it started only after we switched ISPs , that it must have been a config problem and turns out it was.... The manual said to ask ISP for settings. I tried to do that 3 weeks ago and the tech support for ATT was unhelpful.
    So I tried calling ATT again today for the proper settings for the router. The tech was fantastic. She walked me through everything -- so now I have wireless PCs, netflix and Itouch again,  yea!! It was not the router, but trying to get the modem and the router to communicate with each other....
    Thanks for trying

  • HT204411 i am trying to purchase many songs at one time. i have added all songs to wish list , now to purchase it will only let me  do one at a time  please advise how i can purchase more than one at a time

    i am trying to purchase many songs at one time. i have added all songs to wish list , now to purchase it will only let me  do one at a time  please advise how i can purchase more than one at a time

    There used to be a 'buy all' button on the wish list screen but for some reason that has been removed from the current version of iTunes so you will need to buy each item individually. You can try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe it'll be added back in a future update : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
