Duplicated titles

Hi. All my songs have somehow become duplicated,during a laptop change. One of the songs plays and the other doesn't. I need to delete, in block, the titles that don't play. How do I do this?

OK, the updated version of DeDuper is ready. As always I strongly recommend that you backup the entire library to another drive before cleaning just in case there are any as yet undiscovered bugs in my code. It is also a good idea to test the behavior with a small group of tracks first so you get an idea of how it works.
I've taken some new screenshots to illustrate it in action.
Having selected some tracks in iTunes that may contain duplicates this is the screen that you'll see when you run the script.
Typically you will answer yes at this point unless you want to test the track-by-track clean up action with small numbers.
If UAC is disabled the script should be able to generate a progress bar so that you see its activity as it scans though the selected tracks a number of times. Closing the progress bar gives an opportunity to abort or resume the script.
Next a summary screen shows the breakdown of the different types of duplicates that have been identified.
The options should be self-explanatory. Choose yes unless you want to go back to check the details of any alternate dupes.
There will be another progress bar if UAC is disabled, followed by the summary of the completed actions taken by the script.

  • Duplicated title box creeps gradually to the side

    In iMovie 11 I have a lot of the same style titles, using the "duplicate last title" command in clips. The more titles I use, the more the text/title box creeps to the side (to the right in my case, I'm using the lower static title box). It's as if there is some bug there that moves each subsequent title boundary after it's been duplicated. In the end, the text box goes out of the boundary of the movie and letters simply disappear.

    Well, now I'm feeling even more stupid.
    I cannot find the generator button you describe, even after consulting the help manual.
    I THINK I know which one it is - the button in the lower right corner of the viewer - the same one that has Text, Crawl, etc....?
    But it's not there.
    I'm using FCP HD. is that the problem?
    Also, Boris is familiar to me - I think I've used it or seen it in the past - but I can't find it. I'm wondering if I'd seen it previously while using Final Cut Express, but somehow, since upgrading to Pro, I don't see it any more.
    If you can clarify any of this, i would be vrey grateful.

  • Adding dissolves and duplicating titles. Lost.

    Okay, I am trying very hard to understand X. Two things are really screwing up that process and I cannot fiqure it out.
    1. Just laid down a music track and am trying to add video, then add dissovles. Very easy in 7, right? But in X, when I try to add a dissolve to the video,  the dissolve jumps to the end of the audio track! What? I know it has something to do with storyline and connected clips. I just don't get it.
    2. Say I create a simple lower third and then want to use it later and change the text. In 7, I just saved it to a bin then laid it in later and changed the text. How in the heck is that done in X?
    Simple stuff, but just can't get my head around it in X. I really want to like FCP X, but...
    Thanks for any help.
    Cheers.
    Tom

    Hi Tom. This whole storyline things is causing me fits. That has to be the problem. Yes, I laid down the music track, the the video clips.So it seems the video is in the same storyline as the music track. This is soooo way different. I will try your suggestion.
    Cheers.

  • Page title duplicating in the grid ALV table header when run on portal

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing an issue with the ALV display. My object contains three screens.
    The first screen is a selection screen.
    The second one is an overview screen which displays the data in a Grid ALV table corresponding to the "supplier id" entered in the first screen.
    The grid ALV has a header(contains name,location etc) and a table to display data.
    I have created a SAP Transaction iView on the portal for this object.
    The issue here is that when I run this in ABAP, everything is fine.
    But when I preview it on the portal, the first screen is displayed correctly but in the second screen the title of the page is duplicated in the table header and the header that is supposed to display the name, location etc. is replaced by the duplicated title.
    Please suggest an alternative or solution for this.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Aditi Sharma

  • Feature Requests - Title Names Reflect Text Used in Actual Title - Allow Unique Duplicate Titles

    I would like to request a feature for the titles in Adobe Premiere. In After Effects, when you type out a title, that title's name becomes the first few words of whatever you typed. In essence, the title automatically names itself whatever the text is.  It's super handy and makes creating multiple titles a breeze because it eliminates the extra step of having to actually name your title something unique. I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to see Premiere adopt this.  It makes a lot of sense and would save users a ton of time when working with title heavy projects.
    Also, in After Effects when you duplicate a title inside the timeline, it becomes it's own unique title file.  In Premiere it just becomes a linked mirror of the duplicate, so any text changes you make to either file will result in a text change in the other.   I'm not crazy about this. I wish the titles would just become their own unique file when duplicated, so you can just move down the timeline creating text files quickly and easily by duplicating your previous title and moving on.  This is how After Effects does it and how Final Cut 7 used to do it.
    Premiere is not very efficient at creating titles.  In large projects that require a lot of titling, it would be nice to be able to just select a title in the timeline, duplicate it, change the content inside and have the name of the new file reflect the new content. It would also be nice if the duplicated title was its own title and not linked in anyway to the duplicate.

    Thanks Kevin, I went and did that.
    And yes Jerry, it is in the timeline that I believe this feature would be the most helpful.  I am aware that you can do it in the project panel, which is what I have been doing.  In text heavy projects, having to go back and forth to the project panel over and over again can be cumbersome.  It would be nice if I could just live in the timeline without having to constantly mouse over to the project panel.  When you're doing over 25 titles, it gets a little tedious.

  • CS5 - Naming Titles

    In CS4 I would create a Title, making it look the way I wanted... then Open said title and hit "New Title Based on Current Title", changing the wording to whatever I needed it to be. -This helps to keep the formatting, color, etc. of my titles cohesive for the project. My titles would simply take on the next number as a name. ie: Title 1... the next title would be Title 2... the next being Title 3... so on & so forth.
    In CS5 (5.0.1) the name of my titles are staying the same as the original, so I have multiple titles of the same name in my bin(s). Not that it matters because I usually double-click the title I would like to edit or duplicate on the timeline and not the bin... but when I look at my Timeline and I see multiple titles with the same name it usually means that the Text of the Title is the same as all the others with that name... It's very alarming/unnerving thinking I have the same title popping up for different chapters/events/people/etc.
    Is this behavior odd?
    What happens (name wise) when you guys hit "New Title Based on Current Title" to create a New Title?
    I know work-arounds but do you know of a fix?

    In CS5 (5.0.1) the name of my titles are staying the same as the
    original, so I have multiple titles of the same name in my bin(s)
    It just did it again!!!!
    In my pproj. (Will be 14 lessons of 30minutes each.)
    - I duplicated a Sequence which was already edited complete with Titles.
    - I then deleted the camera footage/video from the new Sequence leaving the Titles.
    - Double-Clicked a Title (Title slate that shows the names of the individual lessons)
    - Hit "New Title Based on Current Title"
    - The prompt says "Title 61" but as you can see in the picture... I already have a "Title 61"
    If I change the name in the Prompt for the Title... I used TEST - The next Prompted Title name is "Title 62" or just the next # in sequential order... but as you can tell, I already have "Title 62" therefore I will end up with duplicates again in this project as well as the one I was editing yesterday when I discovered this.
    It appears that the duplicate numbers start with whatever the "Title #" is that I use as my base.
    As you can tell yesterday I duplicated "Title 1" & today it was "Title 61" that I duplicated in this project.
    It's funny - I hope I'm the only one experiencing this so there isn't a wide spread problem but at the same time I want it to be wide spread so it can be duplicated and resolved. Anyone able to duplicate or seeing this behavior?

  • Duplicate title and files in iTunes

    Problem: Duplicate titles in iTunes
    I have tried to find asolution for my problem with duplicate titles and duplicate files in iTunes andiTunes media (witch is the folder that iTunes keeps music and other media in).
    I have/need:
    Over 1000 duplicate titles
    Some of the duplicates with same file and Some of them with two different files (this makes it much more difficult)
    Allot of duplicated titles with the same “added date”
    All the files are organized by iTunes in iTunes media,
    Playlists that I don’t want to delete
    Genre, album and artist information I don’t want to delete
    I use Mac
    The possibilities I have found:
    "Show duplicates" in the menu in iTunes (To much work when there is over 1000 duplicate songs) and (Allot of duplicated titles with the same “added date” so I cant sort them that way)
    Tuneup,plug-in (I’m not sure if Tuneup just removes the duplicate titles or the file behind the duplicate titles. If it deletes the file I’m going to end up with allot of songs missing their files, in other word the tunes are gone)
    Idupe,app (cantboth remove duplicate files and leave the files of the oneswitch are only duplicate titles iniTunes)
    Removeall music from iTunes an thenimport it all again after moving all iTunes media into one folder with “bigmean folder machine” (I’m afraid this is going to affect my playlists andgenre, artist, album organization.
    "Consolidate" in the iTunes menu (not quitesure what that does)
    Sorry for my badspelling

    You could try "Dupin". It costs $ 15, but there is a demo available for testing: http://dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/dupin.php

  • Anyone got this problem solved? Duplicate titles on iPad's iPod?

    Dear All,
    Hope all reading are well! My problem seems to clear itself up - by itself -sometimes....
    Problem is after syncing up then disconnecting iPad, duplicates of songs are seen. You know on the display of the iPod's usual display of your tunes.
    Sometimes after resyncing the dupes go away or more are duplicated of different tunes!
    Apple Support does not offer any advise. Please comment. These dupes bother me.
    Thank you for your time and advice.
    Sincerely,
    MacOwner

    Dear OrangeMarlin,
    Much thanks in your reply. I must be more correct in describing my problem. I get these dupes but have no duplicates of anykind in my iTunes library. This is what is confusing me. The duplicated titles are right after one another and will play consecutively if I permit them.
    I was talked through (by Apple Support) on finding duplicated songs but this did not solve anything because there were no duplicated songs/tunes in the library.
    Thanks again for your input!
    Much appreciated!
    Sincerely,
    MacOwner

  • Keyword and metadata for non-image files.

    Hi, everyone.
    As I have started to use Bridge to browse files in my system including those that are not image files I tried to find information on how Bridge handles the assignment of keywords and metadata to these files but couldn't find anything on Adobe's site.
    Considering non-image files such as PDF's, MS Office (Word, Excel), Text, HTML, and others, how does Bridge handles the assignment of metadata and keywords ? Where are they stored ? Embedded in the files themselves or in a sidecar file similar to what happens to RAW image files ?
    I've read some posts from other users about problems with this. Some report that they are able to assign keywords but these aren't maintained once the file is re-saved.
    Is there a manual on Adobe's site that covers the handling of keywords and metadata in Bridge ?
    TIA,
    Joe

    Joe,
    Being a digital archivist dealing primarily with pages digitized from the turn of the 20th Century for a religious sect I am highly involved in the usage of keywords.  Each page of a work, be it either a volume of a newspaper or a book, contains keywords.  I do not use side-car files but instead incorporate my keywords directly into the resultant TIF file.
    So I used your posting to see what the answer was.  To that end I am presently working on a 1922 title, Thirty-One Years of Organized Work in Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Louisiana by Church of the Brethren from 1891 to 1922, that will consist of slightly over 500 pages.  To test your question I placed the title of the work as a keyword.  I then used Bridge's find ability.  It did not work.
    I forgot that Bridge converts all commas into semi-colons.  And changing the colons into semi-colons still returned no results.  An examination of the keywords tab showed the string broken down in to sections.  Searching for the longest string showed the problem.  Returning to my keyowrd string I removed all instances of the semi-colons and re-searched.  This resulted in a properyl found file.
    So.  The longest string I have tested to date is 120 characters, the title of the work minus the commas.  I suspect that Curt is correct in his assumption that it is limited by the operation system.  I tested this theory by incorporating a double string (without the commas) of my book's title.  This was 241 characters including the space between the duplicated title.  The search was successful.  A triple set of the title returned no hits.

  • Catalog and Keyword Non-Image files

    In addition to my images, I have a growing collection of background and reference information relating to the subject or location of the images.
    I would like Lightroom to be able to Catalog and apply keywords to non-image files.
    I use a metadata search to find my images; I want to be able to use the same tool (Lightroom) and the same metadata (keywords) to find other related information.
    If Lightroom could Catalog and Keyword all Adobe format files (PDF, InDesign, etc.) this would be a great start.
    The next step; selectable list of file-types; export keywords to .xmp

  • How has every SINGLE photo in one of my events been renamed - I did not use Batch change?

    Yesterday I imported a photo, added it to an existing event. Then I changed the title of that ONE photo and closed down. Today when I opened that event EVERY SINGLE photo has that title. There are 72 photos which have all now got the same title. I did not use Batch change and am very very upset at the prospect of trying to re-title all these again.

    Apple need to sort this out. I have spoken to Apple Genius at their store, to their technical support and other forums but no one seems to be able to help.
    I have tried to view the images in my back up on Timemachine but THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE! Come on Apple what is the use of a Timemachine back-up which you cannot view if you accepted an iPhoto update recently!!!!
    I looked in the photo library Data and found some of the titles attached to thumbnails and am laboriously copying and pasting these back in place of the multi-duplicated title.
    I now live in fear of this happening across my entire iPhoto library - nightmare scenario.

  • UCM checkin validation

    hi,
    I got some difficulties in doing validation check during the content check in process, is there any way to do so such as checking the duplicated title, or other custom metadata fields??
    Many thanks and regards,
    Edited by: user8960906 on Mar 4, 2010 7:46 AM

    This kind of work is sometimes performed by creating a component and using the validateStandard Java filter where you can do things like access the database to check for a previous piece of content with the same title or whatever other data validation you need to do.

    Now is probably a good time to discuss Titles, and Instances of Titles.
    When one creates a Title, it appears in the Project Panel. When it appears on, or is dragged to the Timeline, one has an Instance of that Title. One can have any number of Instances of that Title. All are linked back to the Title in the Project Panel. That means that if one changes any Instance of that Title, or the Title in the Project Panel, those changes will affect EVERY Instance of that Title. That can be very useful, but can also be confusing, when first encountered.
    As an example, say that you have created a Title, that says "Meanwhole Back at the Ranch," sort of like the old silent Western movies. You place that Title between dozens of Clips on the Timeline, but then notice the mis-spelling. Just correct one of the Instances, or the Title in the Project Panel, and ALL Instances will reflect the change from Meanwhole," to "Meanwhile." So far, so good.
    BUT, if one wants a different Title, but one based on that "Meanwhile Back at the Ranch," they would NOT edit one of the Instances, or the Title in the Project Panel, as that would change ALL Instances. Instead, go to that Title in the Project Panel, and Rt-click on it, then choose Duplicate. That will create a Copy of that Title, with the word "Copy" postpended to it. Then edit THAT Title, as needed, and those changes will NOT affect any Instances of the original Title. Note: you can Rt-click on the Copied/Duplicated Title, and choose Rename, to make finding it, and identifying it easier. Initially, upon Duplication, it will appear highlighted in the Project Panel, but if you need to easily find it later on, Renaming it should make that task easier. When done making changes to that Duplicate Title, just drag it to the Timeline to create an Instance of it.
    Good luck, and hope that helps, plus saves confusion, when you go to alter but one Instance of a Title, without affecting all other Instances.

  • Programatically adding web parts to pages

    I am using a site provisioning event receiver and am trying to add the ProjectSummaryWebPart and the GettingStartedWebPart to the page. I am using the code below but when I go browse the page it looks like this. Has anyone had any experience with programmatically
    adding these web parts to a page using server side code?
    ProjectSummaryWebPart pswp = new ProjectSummaryWebPart
    Title = "Project Summary",
    ChromeType = PartChromeType.TitleOnly
    wpmgr.AddWebPart(pswp, "Header", 0);
    GettingStartedWebPart gswp = new GettingStartedWebPart {
    ChromeType = PartChromeType.TitleOnly,
    Title = "Get Started with your project site",
    wpmgr.AddWebPart(gswp, "Header", 1);

    Hi,
    I can reproduce this issue by adding the Project Summary Web Part into a page, when I change the PartChromeType to “BorderOnly”, the duplicated title will disappear.
    Anyway, when editing the page contains the Project Summary Web Part added programmatically, the ribbon will be blocked by an undefined error in projectsummary.js.  
    As the limited resource we have, I would suggest you open a ticket for this case:

  • I converted some songs in iTunes to work with an eMusic device.  I'd like to delete them, but I'm not sure which of the duplicated songs to delete.  Some titles are black and some are gray.

    I converted some songs in iTunes to work with an eMusic device.  I'd like to delete them, but I'm not sure which of the duplicated songs to delete.  Some titles are black and some are gray.

    let's just doublecheck some things quickly. do any of the affected songs play in itunes at the moment? if so, when you play them, do they ask to be authorised?
    if so, does the authorisation go through successfully, or do you get an error message? (if you get an error message, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
    if the authorisation seems to go through successfully, with the authorised songs sync to the ipod?
