Get rid of translucent stars in ratings

I keep track of my music by listening to a song, then rating it on my iPod (iPhones suck for this). This has worked fine for years. Now when I rate a song, it gets 2, 3 4 or 5 solid stars. Itunes has been adding translucent stars to all the rest of the songs on the album. I am having a lot of difficulty getting rid of these things. How can I make this stop?
iTunes 10. something, the second newest version.
PC Windows 7

Iam rating these songs on an iPod Classic with a click wheel. I listen to the song, rate then adavance to the next song. In iTunes I have a smart playlist that seperates these out. From there I add stars in the comment section, because there it will transfer over to my computer at work.
This is a screen shot from my iTunes, before I have added to the comments. There aren't a lot of songs here, but the ones with the translucent stars, I neither rated nor listened to.

  • How can I get rid of phantom star ratings in iTunes (10.6.3)? They serve no purpose that I can see.

    How can I get rid of phantom star ratings in iTunes (10.6.3)? They serve no purpose that I can see. thx

    After you sign in with the old ID and are presented with the option to keep the information on the iPad, you should say yes to that. Then you should be able to delete the account on the device. After you delete the account, you can - or you should be able to - sign in with the new Apple ID.
    I tried these very same steps on my Pod Touch and it worked exactly the way that I'm describing. When you sign in again with the new ID, you will be given the option to merge Reminders, Bookmarks, Etc, with those in iCloud.com. I selected the option to merge all of the information. Nothing was duplicated and everything was exactly as it was before I deleted the iCloud account.
    So ... sign into your new ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store. Tap the old ID and sign out. Then sign in with the new ID. Then delete the old iCloud account like I explained above and then sign in with the new Apple ID, all of your purchased content and iCloud content should be good to go.

  • How to get rid of bookmark star?

    How to get rid of bookmark star?
    I tried:
    @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); #bookmarks-menu-button toolbarbutton { visibility:collapse !important; }
    by creating and putting it in a file "userChrome.css" in "chrome" folder in my profile, but it didn't work.
    Is there another way?

    The current version of the bookmarks star on the Navigation Toolbar consists of two buttons, one if the actual star button and the other is the drop marker that opens the drop-down list.
    These are the selectors for both:
    <pre><nowiki>#nav-bar-customization-target #bookmarks-menu-button .toolbarbutton-menubutton-button
    #nav-bar-customization-target #bookmarks-menu-button .toolbarbutton-menubutton-dropmarker</nowiki></pre>

  • 6700 Slide: text alerts, and getting rid of a star...

    I have never posted on anything like this before so please bear with me.
    I have a new 6700 slide, but there are 2 things I can't get used to, having had a Samsung phone before.
    1.  (The worst thing) - if a text comes in, and I don't happen to hear the buzzy tone thing, then I don't get another reminder, and there is no visible sign on the phone that there is a new message unless I open the slide.  Even then it doesn't tell me who the message is from and I have to go to the inbox.  Is there a way of getting more than one alert?  I really don't like this.
    2.  Every time I turn the phone on it asks me to set up my email preferences.  I don't want to use it for email but even if I cancel it, it asks me again next time I turn it on.  Can I stop it asking once and for all?
    3.  Is there a way of marking text messages for deletion, without having to mark just one (very time consuming) or all (which you might not want to do)?
    I would be really grateful for any help on one or all of these questions.  I really wanted a Nokia but now I am pining for my Samsung.

  • Cant get rid of star notificati​ons

    Hi all, I have a BB Curve 8330 and until recently had no issues. Yesterday, I received a call in a dead zone and when I was back in a live zone, there was no record of the call, but there was a star on the Call Log and a 'missed call' notification in the upper right corner of the screen. The call is not important, I know who it was and all that - the problem is that I can't get rid of the star notification and the missed call icon. I've tried rebooting, removing and replacing battery, and messing around with options - but nothing works. I am stuck with the star and the missed call icon, which is annoying because if another missed call comes up, I don't know unless I ferret it out. 
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Look in your MESSAGES folder for the missed call message, and open or delete it.

  • Getting rid of Album Ratings (white stars)

    How do I get rid of all album ratings.
    One used to be able to remove some of them using a grid and then choosing albums ratings on a pop-up menu - then setting to none.
    In the appallingly crap iTunes 11, this doesn't seem possible.
    Ok, it's official iTunes 11 is total rubbish for many reasons.

    Go to the iTunes main library, right click on the track(s) with the artwork you wish to delete and select "Get info".
    Click the "Artwork" tab, right-click on the image, and select "Delete".
    Sync your iPod to reflect the changes.

    qui nox,
    You may, with the stroke/nofill red star on top of the blue bubbles in the (Layers palette) stacking order:
    1) Select everything and Object>Clipping Mask>Make;
    2) Direct Select the (formerly) red star and reapply its red stroke.
    You may also start by making a copy in front of the red star and use the original in 1); that will make the copy a separate object on top of the Clipping mask.

    Hollow stars.... itunes assigns an album average based on my star ratings, but in what scenario do Songs get assigned a hollow star? does itunes acquire info from other media programs or solely from what ive rated in itunes, or does itunes use other peoples ratings... Hollow Star assignment basis?

    If you assign songs a rating an unrated album gets an automatic rating, which you can override by rating it.

    iTunes doesn't import ratings from tags, or third party services. You set them.

  • How do i get rid of album ratings

    How do I clear a rating for an album in iTunes 12.0

    If the issue is with the hollow star auto-ratings my scripts ClearAlbumAutoRating and ClearTrackAutoRating can be used to set a rating of 1% which displays as no stars and suppresses any auto-ratings.

  • What is the white dot on my ipod screen?  i can't get rid of it even when using apps?

    If I click on the dot it brings up a translucent screen with other options: Favourites (star) Home (home button) Device (picture of an iphone) and the circle (gestures).  No matter what I do I cannot get rid of this icon and it is driving me mental!
    Message was edited by: dmayt
    Just did a further search and found that my question was alreaxdy answered by Jandt - thank you!

    The white dot is the button that brings up AssistiveTouch which allows you to use your iPod if you have difficulty touching the screen.
    To turn this function off, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > OFF.

  • I have absolutely no use for "Events" in iPhoto: can I get rid of this concept? I am importing photos maybe one or a dozen times a day and cannot avoid creating a new event each time. Or can I?

    As my long question implies (sorry, should have kept it shorter) I have a problem with being forced to have Events in my iPhoto'11 9.2.3 (629.52) on my MacBook 10.6.8. My habit is to unload the camera constantly, whether I have taken a single shot or a whole series. Each new addition creates an Event which actually bothers me!
    Is there a way of avoiding this? If I erase an event from iPhoto the photos will disappear from the Library it seems ... Please help with your advice. Thanks! Sigrid.

    Thanks, OT!
    When I look at my odd(?) habits of dealing with iPhoto anyone will see that I have a very simplistic approach: I never let one single Library get bigger than 300 or 400 photos, then back it up as is and make a separate, manual backup of the different albums as named by myself on an external HD. Then I delete the Library as such from my Mac but can reinstate it from the backups as I please. The backups are properly labelled, of course.
    I get dizzy when I read about libraries of thousands of photos, of keywords, ratings, smart albums etc. because this just wouldn't apply to my so-called system. So instead of using Faces and Places, my album names show clearly what's in them - "skies and scenery" Euskadi, "bugs and birds at Fancourt", "inventories", "people" (separate for my circle of people and characters from media), "my dog" etc., usually a bunch of 20 albums or so depending on my whereabouts. Quite manageable!
    I've been doing just fine with this method and would recommend it ... but others are much brighter ;-) and use the offered (and to me too advanced) features of iPhoto, if they prefer these. Now that I know how to get rid of Events by merging them into one, I at least feel a little freer there.
    Well, it's 1:25AM my time, gotta go ...

  • How Do I Get Rid Of Multiple Duplicates AND Relocate Numerous Files?

    Basically I'm fed up of iTunes.
    A couple of months ago, i had a problem with my itunes library due to a message regarding the iCloud. This practically deleted my whole iTunes library and forced me to relocate every single track, which took a lot longer than it needed to.
    I was already annoyed with iTunes by this point, until yesterday around 1/3 of my tracks were still unlocated, however I could cope with this because I had the majority of my songs, despite this not being ideal.
    Yesterday I was informed I needed to update my iPod, naturally I did. Then...this is when I start to get mad, my iPod crashed, then restored itself COMPLETELY back to factory settings, removing my songs and all my apps. I reopen my iTunes library to see that, that has also restored and NONE of my music is there.
    Now, after a bit of fiddling, I have an iTunes library full of songs which have been duplicated twice or even three times, to add to it, hardly any are actually located. It's not just as simple as redownloading from iTunes, because I expect half my library is music from CDs. So now not only am I faced with trying to get rid of all the duplicates, I also have to locate all the songs (I have checked the preferences and redirected it to My Music > iTunes - basically what it should be) and I have to get rid of all the songs that I didn't want in the first place such as old songs that should be long gone off my iPod/Library from now.
    If anyone could help, that would be great, because I'm so tired this time-consuming mess my iTunes has become.
    Thanks in advance!

    Broken Links
    It depends a bit on why things aren't where iTunes expects to find them but if they are in sensible Artist & Album folders in some common location then my FindTracks script should be able to reconnect them to iTunes. FindTracks uses some fuzzy matching routines and searches for multiple potential locations within a media folder. For more details see this thread.
    Duplicates
    Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)
    I intend at some point to improve DeDuper so that when there are multiple duplicates, where at least one is connected to a file while others are missing, it can throw away the entries to any missing files, however the current version needs all duplicates to have been repaired first.
