Duplicate albums showing after set-up iTMatch - how do I hide?

I have a 900 album itunes collection, which is used to play out over a Sonos set-up made up of appox 20% purchased from iTunes and 80% encoded into ALAC format (Apple Lossless). When I turned on iTunes Match I have a huge number of Albums that are appearing twice in my iTunes library. There seems to be no discernable differemnce in the Meta-Data on the albums but the "iTunes Match" version is showing at the lower bitrate along side the Lossless version. How do have only one album showing. I have to say the published information around this is not great!
Many Thanks in advance.

Hi,
How did you get the duplicates? Match does not create duplicates from your library. Your library is scanned and at the end of the process, your tracks will show an iCloud status of Matched, uploaded, purchased or ineligible.
What is the iCloud status for duplicate tracks. Do any of the tracks have download icon in the cloud column? Do they appear as duplicates on your iOS device?
Where is your library - on computer or external drive?

Are you sure to have the full length file in the library? If you start playing it, will it show the full runtime on the controls?

This thread - with a quote from an LR4 Beta thread - says that all 6 central Basic controls in PV2012 (Exposure thru Blacks) are now image-adaptive, as were Recovery, Fill Light, and Clarity in previous versions:

Whether they are suitable for creating a Timelapse sequence without significant flicker is entirely subjective and up to you - and of course, dependant on your specific images & how they change over time. Sorry, not much advice beyond try PV2012, and revert back to PV2010 if you get too much flicker.

Duplicate Calendar Entries after Setting up iCloud

I just installed iOS 5 on my iPhone, and upgraded to the latest and greatest OS X Lion on my iMac to use iCloud. Unfortunately, it appears to have created duplicate entries for all of my calendar entries. Rather than syncing my existing iCal calendars, it looks like it created all new 'iCloud' versions of those same calendars so I have double of everything. (For example, before I had 'Home' and 'Work', etc. now I have 'iCloud Home' and 'iCloud Work') This makes no sense to me...am I just supposed to delete my old calendars and just go with the iCloud ones now? Why wouldn't they automatically do that for you if that's the case? Not very intuitive. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Additionally, from what I can tell, if I create a new entry under one of the iCloud calendars, it WILL show up on my iPhone. However, on my iPhone, I DO NOT have those same 'iCloud Home' calendars listed, just one that says 'All iCloud'. Unfortunately, that means I can't create a new calendar entry that syncs with iCloud. If I create an entry under 'Work' on my iPhone, it DOES NOT sync with iCloud and show up on iCal on my Mac. There is no way this is correct behavior, as that is one of the main benefits of syncinc calendars.
Does anyone have any solutions for these issues? Thank you.

Okay, got it sorted; hopefully this will help others out.
My situation: calendars were working fine on my Mac, iPad 2, iPhone 3GS and iCloud up until Friday evening when I activated my new 4S. Then all heck broke loose, and my calendar events started triplicating (quadrupling, in some cases). The calendars themselves did not, just the events. I believe what caused it is that I restored my 4S from a backup of my 3GS, and didn't turn off iCloud on the 3GS before doing so. So the system got confused and started replicating things like mad. Then I remembered Time Machine!
Here's the solution:
1. Backup jacked-up calendars on your Mac (just in case, you can always go back and manually fix them...gag).
2. Turn off iCloud syncing on your devices (all of them), including your Mac; this will prompt you to delete the data on the devices, and that's okay (take a deep breath...)
3. You should now have no calendar data on any device; it should only reside out on iCloud; verify this by logging into the site and checking
4. In Finder, navigate to <you_user_dir>/Library and make sure you have a Calendars folder (hold Option and click the Go menu and you'll see it the Library folder...they hid it in Lion); don't open the folder, just make sure it's there
5. From the Library folder, enter Time Machine and select a date you know was working (in my case, I had to go back to before Wednesday to make sure iCloud was not in use on my machine at the time, you might have to do the same, depending on when you started using iCloud)
6. Click the magic Restore button in the lower right-hand corner; you'll be fast-forwarded to the same folder in the present, and asked if you want to replace or keep the duplicate items; choose Replace
7. After the copy is done, open iCal; you should see all your events restored to their normal glory
8. Log into the iCloud.com website and nuke all of your calendars; yes, you read that right, kill them all...or you'll be back at square one. Because you have to have at least one calendar, I created one called "junk" and left it in there temporarily
9. Back on your Mac desktop, go to System Preferences and turn on Calendars in the iCloud control panel; if you have iCal open still, you might have a freak-out moment where everything disappears (I did...). Don't panic, this is normal; if you look at the website, you'll see your calendars start appearing there, and shortly the same will hold true for iCal on your Mac
10. Once you've confirmed that everything looks spiffy, delete the "junk" folder on iCloud.com
11. One device at a time (I did my 4S first, then my iPad 2), turn on iCloud for Calendar syncing; just to be careful, let each device finish updating before you turn on the next (it probably doesn't matter, but I'm paranoid at this point).
12. Voila, you should now have all calendars in sync across all your devices, your Mac, and iCloud.com
Hopefully this helps some people out; it's the only way I could get it to work and restore my calendars back to a useable state.
Take care!

After setting up restrictions, how do you get apple app store back if its gone? it happened to me.

Sharing to Facebook - Duplicate albums

When I am Sharing to Facebook and choose an album already created in Facebook,
the albums in the list duplicate each time I add a photo. Note that the list duplicates equally even though I add one photo to a particular album.
What can I do to fix duplicates in this list?

I've done a lot of reorganizing in both Facebook and Aperture and things just got out-of-whack. I rebuild the database etc. but I always had these duplicate albums showing.
It was this simple fix; Remove and re-add the Facebook account that worked. Thanks for the quick reply. Apple discussions are a wonderful tool with your good help.

Change the album title to AlbumX, apply, then change back to Album. Repeat as necessary.

No contacts show up after setting up CardDav with gmail- any idea how to fix?

No contacts are showing up after setting up CardDav with gmail. Any idea why?
Here is how i setup CardDav (with no success)
1. I removed my old gmail account that was setup with the Exchange protocol, checked that my Exchange-Gmail contacts were no longer showing in my Contacts app, then rebooted my iPad.
2. I setup my gmail contacts with the CardDAV protocal as per google's instructions (which match everyone's instructions when I googed to troubleshoot). Google's instructions can be found here: http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2753077 .
3. No contacts showed up in my contacts app. I have verified all of Google's troubleshooting tips such as ensuring SSL in enabled, etc. There were no problems or error messages when verifying my username and password. I also checked to make sure my contacts were in Google's "My Contacts" group, which they were.
After pulling my hair out a little, removing the account and going through the steps over and over for an hour, I have given up and gone back to syncing my contacts with the Exchange protocol as per: http://support.google.com/a/users/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740 . My contacts show up instantly with this method.
I would like to get cardDAV working, since Google is phasing out Exchange ActiveSync, and CardDAV seams to support more fields etc (although it is not Push sadly).
Any ideas? Thanks for your reply if you can think of anything.

Hey there AppJunkie ...
I'm having this issue too. The odd thing about it is that when using my iOS devices, all of the contacts (and other address books) all show up exactly as I expect and want them to. Now, on Mac OS X, that's a different story. There doesn't seem to be the same functionality between the two Apple operating systems.
Quite frustrating, as I have clients who expect these to work with no problem on their Mac desktops, since their mobile devices work perfectly. They let me know their mobile devices work, and they want the problem fixed. I have nothing I can say or even suggest. It is very discouraging.
I have not been able to find any fix or workaround for this, unfortunately.

Ipod duplicates albums. All the same artist, same everything. How can I fix this?

Ipod duplicates albums. All the same artist, same everything. How can I fix this?
All the details are the same. In my itunes library it shows as ONE whole album. When I import it to my ipod classic 160 gb it duplicates it about 4 times; it's quite irritating. It does that for 2 albums in particular and I have no idea why. Please help! Thank you.

Hi alondres,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Use the information in the following article to review the information in the iTunes database for the artist / albums you are having issues with. Make sure the information you want is exactly the same in the artist and album fields.
Playing and managing content in iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1399#3
Editing Info
Each audio or video file in iTunes has several settings and tags that can be easily modified. These options can be accessed by selecting any file in the iTunes browser windows and selecting "Get Info" from the File menu. You can add song lyrics, artwork and set special playback options. The "Info" tab lets you edit information about the file including artist and album info.
Once you have updated the information, close the iTunes application on the computer. Then reopen and resync to your iPod.

How do I create a custom screen to show after a person logs in we are using windows 7

I have been asked to create a custom welcome screen that would load after a person logs into their computer. This screen is to have links to applications. But I need this to show after they log in and before they see their desktop. and I
need it to be full screen size.
this is mandatory:
I need this to show up AFTER people have logged in, and b4 they see their Desktop. auto adjustment to fill the screen and the screen will have multiple images with them being hyperlinks to the various applications. The kicker is we
are running windows 7. Of course one of the links will go to the desktop.(basically shut down the window screen)
I seem to recall there is a way of doing this using group policy to trigger a screen and possible using HTA or VB6 method or a scripted page but I'm not sure how to accomplish this...
This is coming from upper upper management and they have it mocked up in access 2013.
How do I do this or even accomplish this screen for windows 7.
PS:
I realize that windows 8/8.1 has this type of thing built in, but the company is NOT ready for windows 8/8.1

I built a System Message HTA for my previous employer that was used in a computer lab setting. It was a nice way to inform the users about things happening in the lab, as well as a nice way to ensure people knew who to contact if there were problems.
The HTA lived on a network UNC and each computer had a shortcut to the HTA in their All Users Startup folder (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup). While you could push the shortcut with GPP, likes the others recommended, that's
about all you should do with Group Policy. This was neat - I had the HTA run custom .cmd files (in a hidden window) when it loaded (the Windows_onLoad subroutine) and then when it was closed by the user (button press that called an ExitProgram subroutine).
This allow me to capture who was logged on, how long the HTA was open, and what computer they were using. In a computer lab such as that one, it was nice to have additional way to track who was using what computer and when. Good luck and let us know if there
are any more questions - I really enjoyed that project.
Edit: Added additional info.

No. I am able to use the other features such as underlining, highlighting, adding rectangles and oval and save those changes.

Hi Myketyke,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Since you are syncing your iPod nano to your computer, the best option is to remove the duplicates from the iTunes library on your computer. Then resync your device. The article below will show you how:
