Duplicates- Actual and Ghost Copies

iTunes Match is duplicating and triplicating tracks. Some are duplicates in the classic sense, and some are "ghost" copies; copies of a track that actually exists on my iDevice, but do not show in any list as duplicated. Ghost copies are observed from looking at the iDevice's Music list from iTunes.
These duplicates do not exist in my iTunes Library (MacBook Air). I believe they are taking up precious hard drive space on my device, as well as causing Smart Playlists to malfunction (opinion).

No change. That screenshot is the listing from my iPhone, not my local iTunes folder. In other words, the duplicates and ghosts only exist on my iDevices.

Transferring Standard and Actual costs to COPA

Hi,
We are using 3 valuations (Legal, Profit Center and Group Valuations). In order to transfer standard and actual costs to COPA for all 3 valuations do we need to create 3 costings (total 6) for transferring standard and and 3 costings keys for transferring actual costing to COPA?
Thanks.

Hi Ravi.
Very interesting question!
1: Ledgers in FI are not related with Material Ledger Valuation. EG, in FI you can have IFRS, TAX, and GAAP; and in ML You can have "currency/valuations" Legal, PCA / Group. Keep in mind this are different stuff.
2: In Material Ledger, you can valuate your stock according to different ledgers, with the bussiness function FIN_CO_COGM (Paralell cost of goods manufactured). The idea of this BF is have alternative valuations assigned to the principles (IFRS, TAX, GAAP), so in FI you can accomplish different Stocks, COGS and on accounts, based on different accounting principles. You can understand this as the brothers of FI Ledgers, in order to do product costing.
3: In PA, you only post (or transfer) one record. You have to decide if use "Local, Group, PCA or Paralell Cost of Goods Manufactured". (Im 90% sure based on lot of reading, maybe im missing somethings).
Please, check this old post. Waman is a good source of info!

Hi Waman!Waman Shirwaicar Could you please clarify the concept? This is a topic that there are not much info!

Copa actual and planning data

Hi,
May I know if I am correct for the below where
1)
KE26 or KE21N is meant for correction of actual data in copa and
KE13N or KEPM is to load copa planning to copa
2) we have many planning tcode like kpf6, kp06, kp26.
what is the difference between them and ke13n/kepm?
thanks

KE13N is for mass upload of Plan data into COPA, COPA planning os for operating margin planning this is different from cost planning in controlling
KEPM is for input of planning data by the users in the system
Thanks

COPA Report-Actual and Standard.

Hi Guru,
We need to generate ther report in COPA actual and standard. Standard derived from our cost estimate. Actual are derived actual GI/gr and Billing. We need to compare variance.
Kindly adivse me .
Thanks and regards.

Hi Srina,
You can use Actual Cositng mainly to process Mateial Ledger, the result of actual costing also can be transffer to profitability analysis in month-end to be cheked and be compared.

Differnece between capturing campaign actual cost using PS and using COPA

Hi Experts,
Could anyone tell me the exact difference between capturing campaign actual cost using PS and using COPA?
Thanks!

Hello,
as far I understand these are different objects. The campaign is transfered to the project system as a WBS element, which may be integrated into COPA as well. Please refer to the online help:
Account Assignment to Profitability Analysis - Campaign Management - SAP Library
As far I know the COPA integration may work using WBS elements, but may also work from the conditions created from a campaign or trade promotion.
best regards,
Johannes

How to delete duplicate files and fix borken links

Problem: Duplicate Files and Broken Links
Involves 2 IBM ThinkPads (1) one main partition (system driveC:) running Windows XP SP3, (2) running Windows 7 and with two partitions - Drive C: has the library while drive D:contains the “itunes media” folder.
Issues:
On both laptops, the iTunes media folder contains duplicatecopies of purchased songs and movies (some purchased prior to iTunes 9),imported or ripped songs from CDs, and redeemed digital copies of movies. EverythingI have tried results in broken links and duplicate files. Is there a method or aprogram which will allow me to disentangle this mess? I have spent hoursdeleting files, not using the iTunes “copy” function and so on but the problemcontinues. At times I simply run out of disc space and simply have to start theprocess all over again. I have spoken to someone in Apple’s iTunes tech supportand was told this was a “windows” problem?!?
Any suggestions or advice that would help me to untanglethis mess would be greatly appreciated. Is taking the ThinkPads to a PC repairshop the only answer? How would they fix the problem?
Thanks all, PrimeSequence.

Thanks 'turingtest2' for your suggestion. I know the location of the files, but iTunes keeps duplicating them as soon as I launch iTunes.
You know the location of your file, but it sounded like iTunes doesn't. The FindTracks script is designed to fix the broken links.
I doubt uninstalling and reinstalling will change anything. Uninstalling iTunes does not affect the contents of your media library or media folders, the files stay put.
iTunes shouldn't generate much in the way of new files just through launching it... Exceptions include artwork files for tracks it knows it has yet to scan and any downloads related to podcast subscriptions.
The only other thing I can think of would be some sort of error with the Automatically add to iTunes folder. Any files that are in there should be moved to their normal locations within the media folder layout, not copied, and then added to the library. I suppose the processing order could be add, then move, and if for some reason the move fails then next time you start up iTunes they could be added again. So do you have any files in the Automatically add to iTunes folder? If not is there any other pattern you can see to this duplication? Do you have any software that tries to add files to iTunes automatically?
Actually, and in a similar vein, does this duplication happen on both machines or just the Windows 7 one? Vista introduced new "default" locations for user profiles plus a bunch of symbolic links that automagically redirect attempts by older software to look for things in the default XP locations. As a result your Music folder, for example, can appear at multiple locations within the tree of folders on your C: drive. I suppose it is just possible that some form of recursive nightmare could be going on there.
FWIW it is much easier to manage a self-contained library where the media folder is inside the library folder.

How do I MERGE several "ghost" copies of my user-folder back into one single identity?

This is my current storage directory for THUNDERBIRD: (on my nearly brand-new PC workstation!)
C:\Users\davidlew\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\409424bt.default\Mail\pop.shaw.ca
All of it's folder-icons in the left-most column are mute/empty/unresponsive...
Others that I would like to "fold in" to this identity are located in analogous file-paths
such as:
niser0eab.Davidlew
and
zf1bouv3.default
--inside each of these three setups
such as:
C:\Users\davidlew\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\409424bt.default\Mail\pop.shaw.ca
and
C:\Users\davidlew\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\zf1bouv3.default\
and
C:\Users\davidlew\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\niser0eab.Davidlew.default\Mail\pop.shaw.ca
.....each of these three setups contain the "same"set(s) of subfolders:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
panacea.dat

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
---However, NONE of these message-organizing sub-folders ACTIVELY show up within Thunderbird...
ALL of them seem to show "ghost" copies of the folders and subafolder---in the left-column folder-list view window
but they are mute and unresponsive, and do not SHOW the .emlx messages contained within them....
Drilling into the PC's filing-system (Window Explorer, like Apple's FINDER) does show that the indiv. emlx. mail files
DO exist and ARE readable as plain-text----ugly as hell with header information aond other control characters framing the text-message contents.
How do I "shuffle together" (merge?) the various user-folders into ONE user folder, without overwriting folders and messages?
How do I resurrect the functionality of the "ghost" folder icons in the left-most column?
Such that clicking on a folder with show it's contents, or expand to show it's SUB-folders...
Please Advise!

Weird audio/video offset/ "ghost copies" - please advise

Hello everyone,
I'm helping a friend - who has no computer - with a video project, which I have assembled and post-produced for him from DV tapes in iMovie 09.
Things seemed to work out fine first, but we now run into increasingly bizarre audio/video offset issues, and I'm out of ideas.
The source material for this film (50 minutes) is circa 400 current video clips, 20 stills and 10 older (1999) material - to which we added circa 50 crossfades, 30 voice-overs and 20 music tracks here and there (which, I guess, makes this a mid-size project). We also slowed down a few clips to adapt timing.
Here is what happens:
Around 40 min. into the project, I have muted the sound from quite a few clips and added a music track and voiceover.
Now when editing and previewing this project within iMovie, everything looks and sounds just fine: The sound from the original clips is muted, and the (music + voiceover) audio tracks play back as they should.
But once I export this movie (be it as a tiny 3GP clip or an iDVD project), these scenes will have a third, unwanted audio track added: the original sound from the clips following circa +one minute later+ in the movie - at full level, which is embarrassing, to put it mildly.
E.g., at 40:00, the original sound from the clip at 41:10 is audible with its full level - although both the clip at 40:00 and the one at 41:10 are muted within the project.
Now I tried everything I could think of.
I muted all the clips manually.
I separated the audio from the dubious clips and muted it again, just to make sure.
I threw out several of the older clips (coming from a VHS tape) used in this project.
The only effect this has is that these weird offsets/ "ghost" copies move around; they won't disappear.
I am out of ideas. So here I have an iMovie project which runs fine in iMovie itself - but once exported to iTunes or a DVD, it spits out additional audio material where it shouldn't. Very frustrating, and I cannot pinpoint the source.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA26567 describes a similar problem, but this is a 2005 article referring to versions of iMovie and OS X long gone - and the fix it suggests (exporting 12 bit audio to an external FireWire camcorder in 16 bit and re-importing it) is not possible anymore with today's iMovie.
I would really appreciate if someone could gave me a hint what is happening here, and how to fix this problem.
Thank you.

Are you using any speed effects? Like Fast motion or slow motion?
If you stick to the pre-sets (25%, 50%, 200%, 400%, etc.) sound is handled well.
If you create a custom speed (say 39% or 159%), then sound will be messed up.
I do in fact use such non-standard values for speed.
I will try to reset them and see what it does for the resulting movie.
(And isn't this the kind of bug we wouldn't expect in an Apple product?)
Anyway, thanks for now. I will report if this helps.

Remove duplicate emails and mailboxes

I am moving emails from an old Mac to our new MacBook Pro. My wife has a LOT of mailboxes. It seems to me that when she imported her emails onto our old Mac, from an even older Mac, that mailboxes got duplicated. I think there are mailboxes and folders (with different names) that actually contain the same emails (or mostly the same) as other mailboxes and folders.
I've read some of the threads on the Apple Support Communities. I understand there is a script for finding duplicate emails. But will this only find duplicates within the same mailbox? I don't have this problem. I need to find duplicate mailboxes and duplicate emails within different mailboxes.
I am using Lion and Mail.
Thanks for any help
Mark

Same problem, only one of four accounts (POP) acts this way, and is reloading, and re-reloading, and re-re-re (you get the picture) mail from this account going back to June 07. All marked unread,up to almost 2k of these so far. Running OSX.4.10, dual 2ghz Powermac, 4gb ram, no recently added software.
Thanks!

Will Match remove duplicate songs and duplicate albums and make them into one?

I have a ton of songs and albums that are like that. Some albums have differnet artwork too. Will match compare these to itunes and make them all unified?

The only exception is that If it finds an *exact* duplicate (tags and all), it will not upload it; however, it will still leave both copies in your original library (one will have a little cloud with a line through it next to it).

Duplicate flows and inactive objects after BDLS and Merge

All,
Our team is facing a number of issues with a test environment created using BDLS.
As well as inconsistencies in the inactive/active statuses of objects between the development environment and BDLS created test environment, we are facing issues where we have a large number of duplicate flows and DTPs.
If you have faced a similar issue, please reach out. We'll be interested to understand how have these issues have come about and what can be done to resolve it.
Thanks

there are some sap notes for system copies.
I think you must,
- delete the source depent objects (open the test system)
- maintain "Mapping of Source System Names"
- and import from the dev system again.

Actual and complete instructions for burning CD with info?

I am trying to find actual and complete instructions for the following. My goal is to have copies of my iTunes songs on my PC in mp3 format WITH the song information intact. This much I have figured out: I can burn an audio CD of my songs and then import the CD into iTunes as mp3 files. Great. The problem is that the song titles, artist, and album information are NOT getting onto the CD and NOT into the mp3 files that are coming into my library.
I have checked the box on the burn CD settings for keeping the CD text, which is the only thing I have found that remotely resembles a command to keep the song info.
I have looked all over to find thorough instructions for doing what I need to do but cannot find any. Can anyone provide step-by-step instructions that will accomplish what I aim to do? Thank you.
I have both Vista and Windows7 available. I've tried both. I am using iTunes 10.

Hmm. I am not sure that this helps, but maybe I don't get something. To clarify, the files from which I am starting are iTunes format. I need to change them into mp3. It is my understanding that if I can get iTunes to think it is importing the songs from an audio CD, it will give me the option to save them as mp3 files. If I simply copy the files (i.e. data CD or memory stick) I will just have the original file format and iTunes will not give me the option to make them into mp3 files when I go to import them again.
Does this clarify? My end game IS to get mp3 files WITH the song information. I would like to do this with iTunes and not get a third party software.

MY system folder, including hidden folders are littered with duplicate folders and files with the suffix (from old Mac) How do I remove them

I have a Macbook Pro running Leopard 10.5.8. I had a problem with my my operating system (my fault, I moved a file I shoudnt have) couldnt boot up but was able to boot up from a backup. I managed to repair my original system except now all the system folders, including hidden folders are littered with duplicate folders and files with the suffix (from old Mac). For the most part the dupes are an exact copy, but not always. I want to remove them to free up space and cant imagine duplicate folders in the /system/library are not hindering my computer. But I dont know where to start and am afraid of doing irreparable damage. Any ideas
