How can you delete duplicate songs in total, not one at a time?

How can you delete duplicate songs in total, instead of the tedious task of one at a time. I have hundreds of duplicates.

Maybe:
Duplicate songs on my iPod Touch: Apple Support Communities
Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This"?
Also maybe
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
I know this will work
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Go to iTunes, select view and click show duplicates. Hold control and A ( select all) and then delete.
Not a good idea! The "show duplicates" feature shows "all" duplicate tracks, but you only want to delete the "extra" copies, not the "originals".

How can I delete duplicate songs that are appearing on my iphone but not in my itunes?

How can I delete duplicate songs that are appearing on my iphone

Hi jpere041,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can delete individual songs, artists, albums, playlists, compilations and composers from your iPhone. To delete an item, swipe across it, then tap Delete.
This information is on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide
manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
Regards,
Jeremy

How can I delete duplicate songs in Itunes ?

How can i delete duplicate songs in Itunes ?

I have the same problem, where my music library shows duplicates of just about everything I put in iTunes now. It began about a month ago. As far as looking at Date Added, well they are duplicates all put on at the same time. It isn't a matter of the title showing up later, or my having accidentally added the same song twice (say, from different sources or compilations). This is a problem with Apple I think because it just began a month ago and I changed no settings, nor did I do anything else. It just began to happen out of the blue. Anyone know about this?

How can I delete duplicats songs in my libary

How can I delete duplicates in my libary

i found probably the easiest way to do this with out even displaying the duplicates and deleting them one by one
well most of them got deleted i went from over 1900 duplicates to 83 but i think that might of been because i might have duplicates in my music folder
first of all
delete all of your songs in your libary but one
then open your folder with all your music files
from there select all of your songs and drag them into your itunes libary
now all you duplications will be gone
if the song you kept in your libary got duplicated just delete that one it didnt for me though

How do you delete duplicate songs from your iPhone that do not show up in your iTunes library?

everytime i purchase songs on itunes and sync them to my iphone 4, the songs downloads twice. one as the actual song, and the second one doesnt do anything. when you click on it, it just skips to the next song and doesnt play anything. also this second song has this cirlce dot thing next to it when i am scrolling through my songs in my music...so how do i get rid of this second download? its really annoying to have and it wont let me delete it off my phone. alsoooo since it doesnt show up in my itunes library, i cant delte it off there either! HELP PLEASE

On the springboard, locate the app you want to delete. For this example, I’ll use WeatherBug.
Tap and hold down the icon of the application you want to delete. After a few seconds your screen will start to “wiggle” and an X will appear next to each of the apps you’ve installed via the App Store.
Tap the X next to the icon of the app you want to remove. When prompted, selectDelete.
And now it’s gone.
If the application is listed in your iTunes Applications as well, you’ll want to remove it from there – or else it will re-install the next time you sync. Alternately you can keep the app in your iTunes Applications, and set iTunes not to sync all applications, just the ones you want to keep. See the Applications tab of your device the next time it’s connected in iTunes for syncing options.

How can you delete a song

I have garage band 6 and am struggling to learn the program. How can I get rid of my experiments which are all saved as songs. I cant drag them to trash, cant find them on my hard drive. None of the tutorials I have found address the issue nor the help file.

unless you chose a new location, by default you will find them in your Home directory under Music/GarageBand/

I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.
