Hi  I am having difficulties with numerous duplicates in my itunes library.

Help
I am having trouble with duplicates songs in my itunes library.  It seems the songs keep being aded when I plug in my iphone or ipod.  I need to know how to get rif of multiple songs in the library and possibly how to prevent this?
If you go to top you can pull down the duplicate songs menu and many songs sppear but if I try to delete them all will it erase them all or leave one copy?  does anyone have experience with this?
Thanks

I've written a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates. See this  thread for background.

  • Is anyone else having difficulties with the Appstore not loading, iTunes store being unresponsive, and iTunes radio being down constantly today?

    My itunes store is having connectivity issues and my net connection is fine.  My appstore is also coming up blank rather frequently as well.  Also I have not been able to get my itunes radio to work - saying an internet connection problem - again not the issue.  Anyone else having these issues?

    It sure is...all three keep acting very wonky.  I'll be able to access the store from my macbook and then browse then not be able to connect.  Same goes for app store....
    As for itunes radio....seems a hot topic for everyone.

    Wow. Okay...
    I'll let the real veterans in this forum tackle your issues one after the other. But, I can tell you, all will be well.
    My only comment would be re: your computer specs:

    To be completely honest, FCPX is a RAM hog. It just is. But, RAM is relatively cheap, and the pay-off is good.
    4GB is right on the edge, IMHO. 16G is ideal.
    I wish you luck, hang in there, and standby for more help.

  • I'm having trouble with the repeat function on iTunes 11.

    I'm having trouble with the repeat function on iTunes 11.  The buttons are there but will not allow me to repeat an album when selected under artist from remote app on iPhone.  I have downloaded the update for the remote app but the repeat function now repeats all albums under that artist name.  Selecting the album directly under albums works but is not as easly to access.  Any thoughts?

    Sorry, downgrading is not supported.

    What a vague and useless question.
    A search of the forums would have revealed issues that others are having.
    Why does it matter though?  Are you having issues?  If not.. why would you care?

  • When i go to sync my apps with my computer it tells me  ''are you sure you want to sync apps ? all exsisting apps and there data on (iphone) will be replaced with the apps on this itunes library'' does this mean all my data will be lost if i continue ?

    Regarding your broken, previously authorized computer, here's how that works:
    You would authorize your new computer -- maybe you've done that already.  Then you will have two computers authorized.  Apple allows you to have up to five computers authorized at any time.  If you get to five, you can then go to your account details in iTunes and remove all authorizations.
    Bear in mind this is not saying you can synch to more tham one library.  Razmee209 and gdgmacguy's comments above are correct.  But if Apple only allowed you to authorize one computer at a time, then having a broken computer would mean you could no longer use your Apple ID with iTunes.

  • Why do duplicate albums appear on my iPod Classic screen when there are no duplicates in my iTunes Library?

    Why do duplicate albums appear on my i{Pod Classic screen when there are no duplicates in my iTunes Library?

    It's probably going to be a capitalisation error. In other words, one or more tracks on the album has a lower case letter at the beginning of the album name while all the others have a capital letter. They can be difficult to spot.
    In iTunes, examine one of your duplicated albums carefully. You should be looking for a slight difference between the album title name. Look at the screenshot below, can you see the error in the album title?
    It is there...
    The title track (Left Of The Middle). Look at the capitalisation of the album name.
    Once you find you error in your album, re-type it (or copy-and-paste from one track to all the tracks) and then SYnc your iPod to iTunes. Does that cure it? If nto, let us know.

  • I can find duplicates in my itunes library but can't figure out how to delete them all at once

    I can select all my duplicates in my itunes library but then can't figure out how to delete them all en masse?

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

    I bought an album on iTunes and the digital booklet it came with is not in my iTunes library. How can I get it back?

    You could try emailing iTunes support, giving them your order number, etc. or you could just take the hit and pay the 99p.  I know what I would do.

  • How burn data CD or DVD with documents/songs not in iTunes Library?

    How do I burn data CD/DVD with items not located in iTunes Library? Prior to the update to iTunes 8.0.2, I could burn Data CDs/DVD from my desktop - these were documents files, and audiobooks/songs not located in iTunes Library. Now I can't get the burn preferences window to show up. Something has changed in the iTunes 8.0.2 update which keeps me from burning anything that is not in iTunes library. Please advise. Thank you.

    Dear Zevoneer,
    As a test, I created a New Burn Folder on the desktop, transferred aliases for music and documents not in iTunes Library, totaling about 2.5GB. I burned all on to a 4.7 GB DVD-R. Everything burned properly and quickly as usual. And each item is an accurate replica of my files.
    Perhaps I was wrong in thinking that a few months ago when I burned non-iTunes Library items, I always got a Burn Preferences Window on my desktop. No matter, it all went well. And I also learned that we now burn songs in iTunes only via the playlist window, where "Burn" brings on the Burn preferences choices.
    Thank you for your help.
    Regards,
    Generosa
