How can I show all missing content in iTunes library?

How can I show all missing content (ie. show the exclamation mark against each track)? I can restore the missing content but need to know what is missing without running each track.

One way to identify the broken links in your library is to create this set of playlists:
Lost & Found playlists
Create a playlist called Found, select everything in Music and drag it into the Found playlist. Create a smart playlist called Lost matching All the rules Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Found. Your lost tracks will be in this playlist.
Or use iTunes Folder Watch and enable its option to check for dead tracks on startup.

  • How can i delete all the duplicates in iTunes library?,

    have three copies of each song showing in the library. i am sure there is an easy solution. what is it?

    It depends a bit on how they got added and if each duplicate represents a separate file (physical dupes) or if you have multiple entries to the same files (logical dupes). See this article How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. The method given there works fine if the duplicates were all added at the same time and are physical duplicates. If they are logical duplicates then don't delete the underlying files or you lose your only copy of the track. If the dupes are not so easy to isolate by sorting then arrange them in the usual album order and delete all but one of each repeating group.
    If that all sounds like too much effort try Dupin/Dupin Lite from http://dougscripts.com/itunes/.

  • How can I purge all duplicates from my iTunes library at once?

    Someone else asked this question:
    Hi
    For some reason when I deleted my duplicates it deleted them all from itunes so I had re import them all in and now I have 2-3 duplicates of EVERY song in EVERY album? I have 20GB of duplicates alone! How do I delete them without going mad by deleting individually?"
    and it was never answered so I figured I'd make a new thread to try and get some help. I have the same problem in that when I extracted the backup files from my external hdd on my new macbook it created 3-5 duplicates of all my songs. So like the quote above I have 3-5 duplicates of ALL songs from EACH separate artist.
    Is it possible to somehow purge all of these duplicates at once, on a macroscopic level? It would take forever to modify individually, as I now have over 27,000 files (originally around 5,500 songs).

    Use Option > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. If the duplicates are clearly grouped in time this may not be too hard to achieve.
    Alternatively visit Doug's Scripts and avail yourself of Dupin or Dupin Lite.

  • HT1657 How can I download all purchased content before changing my info account?

    How can I download all purchased content before changing my info account?

    You can always setup your GMail account on your Mac as a POP3 account, and then flag GMail to mark all messages new.  The next mail check would cause your mail app to download all the messages on teh GMail server to your mail client.  Once they are in your mail client, you manage them locally in there, and it won't matter if the GMail host account goes away or not, because POP3 works with the local data once it is downloaded form the server.
    Be advised that doing this can cause you to redownload thousands (or hundreds of thousands) of emails depending upon your email volume and how long you have been using GMail.  If I do this, my GMail wants to re-send close to 6GB of data to me again because I have been using GMail for about as long as it has existed, and I average 100-200 emails a day on that account.

    How can I show all of the keywords used in iPhoto.  There seems to be alimit on how many can be displayed.

    When I click the "Edit Keywords" button, I get a list of all keywords. I just added several hundred random keywords, and they are all visible, when I scroll the list in "Edit Keywords" view.
    Have you the scroll bars hidden? You can enable the scroll bars in the System Preferences > General tab:   enable "Show Scroll bars - always".

    It can also be mirrored from a Mac, this doesn't require you convert the document, but it does require your Mac meets specifications for mirroring.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer).

    Do you mean iTunes library?
    iTunes account is what you use to make iTunes purcahses.
    iTunes library is what is on your computer.
    It says my phone can only be set up woth one itunes account. How do I remove the previous account?
    No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
    Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.

  • How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone?

    How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone?  I can physically copy the tunes as mp3's but the phone does not seem to be able to play all of them.   Do I need to copy an entire album or can I just pick & choose individual songs?   The phone is question is an LG running who knows what for an operating system.

    AAC is Advanced Audio Coding.  Basically it's a format that sounds better than MP3 but doesn't take up as much space as a lossless format (like you'd have on a CD).  More than likely you've had that encoding turned on when you ripped your music into itunes (it's the default encoder).  Therefore your LG phone won't play them.
    You need to turn off the AAC format by going to the iTunes menu, Preferences, General (at the top), then clicking the "Import Preferences" button.  Change the AAC Encoder to MP3 Encoder.  After that you'll have to make MP3 copies of your songs by right clicking them and selecting "Create MP3 Version."  You'll get a copy of the song that should transfer to your SD card and have MP3 encoding.  Hopefully your phone will play that.

  • How can I move my PC (Windows 7) iTunes library (with my cps ripped) to my Mac iTunes library?

    Just for my curiosity and knowledge,
    I have a PC (Windows 7) and a Mac (OS X 10.10).
    Both of them with the latest version of iTunes.
    Both of them with the exact music library (genre, artist, album, etc).
    All my music is coming from iTunes Store, so very easy to re download at any time I want with my Apple ID
    My PC (Windows 7) computer has a CD/DVD drive. I would like to RIP some music from my CDs and add them to my PC (Windows 7) iTunes library. 
    Once I finished, how can I move my PC (Windows 7) iTunes library (with my cps ripped) to my Mac iTunes library?
    Thank you so much

    If you've downloaded the media idependently to each library so far then thet won't be exactly the same as there are different naming rules for the files and folders in OS X and Windows. See Make a split library portable for some general advice. You can move a portable library between Mac and Windows, but there is a delay opening the library after each change of OS.

  • How can I get my music from my Itunes library after I replaced my hard drive?

    How can I get my music from my Itunes library (purchased and downloaded (CD)) after I replaced my hard drive?  Same account name.  My other computer see's old and new music.  Can purchace new songs.  They show up by themselves.  Can connect IPOD and old songs show up.  Seem's like they are defined as different accounts.

    They will only be where you put them.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

    >How can I record my quickvoice to my iTunes library?

    Doh! I figured it out. I had to turn on "sync music" from the music tab and selected no music to sync - so it wiped all my music on the iphone - which was fine. Then I could enable manually manage music and presto - now I am able to copy my music over to the iphone from my new imac.
