How can I get rid of "!" marked song listings

I moved my iTunes library from one computer to another.  I ran into a glitch.  Now about 400 songs have duplicate entries but the duplicates are placeholders with the "!" mark -- "The song  ... could not be used because the original file could not be found."
Is there a way to sort for all the ! listing to delete them all at once? Any other alternative to get rid of the ! listings? 

Thanks!  Exactly what I needed.  The link is: http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=removedeadsuper#

  • How can I get rid of ghost songs in library?

    I have deleted several songs/lectures from my computer, but they still show up as "ghosts" with a weird circular symbol to their left (see image attached) -- Itunes think they still exist, but they are no longer on my computer .  itunes won't allow me to click and delete them.  How can I get rid of them?

    I tried to delete them like I would any song (select and hit the delete key) but they won't disappear.  I also searched for the file on my computer and it does not exist.  I don't know how to get rid of it.  The "stream" songs are all mixed in with my regular songs.

    When I search for solutions, I find several references to the backup feature of Norton 360. There also were references to MozyHome and McAfee.

    Try another browser such a Safari. If you get the same issue then it's probably the site, if it works OK on another browser then it's probably Chrome and you should re-post on a Chrome forum discussion board.

  • On top of my iPad screen in music I get a song streaming across, how can I get rid of it

    on top of my iPad screen in music I get a song streaming across, how can I get rid of it?

    Hi Marion, I hope your day is going well,
    This song is likely one that is paused, which is still being displayed in the app. Currently, there is no simple way to fully stop a song and remove it from this bar, as the app assumes you may want to resume it at some time.
    However, you can restart your device, which in most occasions should reset the playing song in the Music app.
    You can request functionality by contacting Apple Feedback at the link below.

    Let me know if this helps,

  • When I plug in my iPod nano 4th gen to iTunes, a lot of space is taken up by 'other'. What is this and how can I get rid of it to free up some space?

    When I plug in my iPod nano 4th gen to iTunes and click on my iPod, I can see a graph showing how much space is available on my iPod and what it is being taken up by.  A lot of space is taken up by 'other'. What is this? I have a big iTunes library, with about 2000 songs, so I don't want all this space taken up by something I don't know what it is. How can I get rid of it?

    OmniDiskSweeper is a good program to see what's taking up space: http://www.omnigroup.com/products/omnidisksweeper/

  • How can I get rid of photos that were downloaded from my computer?

    How can I get rid of photos that were downloaded from my computer?  I need to free up space on my iPad

    Assuming that you synced the photos from iTunes - or whatever downloaded means - you must use iTunes again in order to remove the songs from the iPad. You have to uncheck the albums in the photos folder that you sync from in the Photos tab of iTunes and follow that with a sync.

  • My iTunes music folder is almost 1.5x the size on disc as my iTunes library. How can I get rid of this extra data?

    When I look at the iTunes music folder in Windows Explorer, it shows as 28.0 GB. In the iTunes library, it says my music is 18.3 GB. I would like to get my 10 gigs back.
    I've tried to add the media folder to my library - it just duplicated maybe 10 songs, didn't add any new ones. This suggests that there isn't any extra music in the folder. So why is it 10 GB larger? How can I get rid of the extra non-music data?

    Apparently there are some mp3 files that aren't adding despite importing the folder...
    That is actually a very common problem, due to iTunes being strict/finicky/incompetent (pick your own interpretation) about slight variations in MP3 formats. The problem can usually be corrected by treating the files with a 3rd party tag cleanup program, such as MP3 Validator.
    i don't know how much of the missing 9.7 GB this will apply to, but definitely worth a try.

  • TS4003 Since the MobileMe move I keep getting a screen that says "IDisk Conflict Resolver." I've done everything asked to "resolve" the problem but it keeps popping up every few minutes. How can I get rid of this?

    Since the MobileMe move I keep getting a pop-up screen that says "IDisk Conflict Resolver." I've done everything asked to "resolve" the problem but it keeps popping up every few minutes. How can I get rid of this?

    Ok....so I have found a work around....if not a complete solution.
    I'm not sure if deleting your music, uninstalling ITunes and reinstalling and adding your music back will actually affect it but I tried it again. Started from scratch.
    I checked the box for "Manually manage music and videos"
    Then I moved my music to phone via drag and drop, usually just boxing a row of albums at a time.
    I went back into my Iphone and began the sync. The message popped up, "1 Item could not be synced" and the sync stopped. At that point, I just clicked sync again and it started back up again. It took a few go's but eventually I got all my music on my phone.
    Ironically enough, the only songs that wouldn't sync were songs that I had actually purchased from Itunes....kinda odd

  • I switched my music to a new computer and all the music doubled how can I get rid of 4500 duplicates

    I switched my music to a new computer and all the music doubled how can I get rid of 4500 duplicates songs? Will Music Match get rid of the extras for me?

    The iPod is not a storage device, all songs should reside on a computer and you can only sync to one machine. However, if these songs were purchased from iTunes you can reload them (see link). If not, and you have no backup, then they are gone.

  • How can i get rid of ad redirects on my Safari?

    How can i get rid of ad redirects on my Safari? Pop up blocks are not working.

    Download and install GlimmerBlocker.
    (Presumably you regularly empty your Safari cache by deleting the following file:
    Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/cache.db
    and clear your History)
    Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home/nobloat ) and further independent information can be read here:
    http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57338784-263/free-dnscrypt-tool-enhances-ma c-web-security/?tag=mncol;txt
    and here:
    http://www.macworld.com/article/1146064/troubleshootdns.html?t=234
    Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    (You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
    Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

    How can i get rid of music or videos that i purchased from iTunes but dont want anymore. When i delete them they always come back in my downloads available?

    thanks. somehow after restoring it, ipod on my phone had another option to download them onto my phone (even though they would play so no idea) but then it allowed me to swipe the songs to delete them so they are finally gone from my phone!!!
