How do I clean removed files from my library?

Hey!
When a .mp3 file is downloaded, when you update your library, it usually creates a copy of the file so when you remove them it won't be missing. That happened to me and now I deleted those files from the music folders and they still are in the library. what should I do?

Send your feedback to Apple. This issue has been discussed numerous times on this forum (do a search on Podcasts). What you are seeing are the ones that are in iTunes in the Cloud as well as your new ones. You can go to the My Podcasts tab for a less cluttered look, but for the nonce, the list view will show all of them:

  • How do you remove files from a library?

    Is there any way to extract individual files from a library?  I downloaded a driver from an equipment manufacturer but the files are all bundled into a library.  The VIs were created with an older version of LabView and I do not need all of them.  I have updated the files I need and now I want to put them together with some other files in a project and create an executable.  Is it worth bothering with or should I just put the whole library in the project?
    Thanks.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Easy way: Convert the .llb to a directory. Then you can simply move the files. Use the LLB Manager (Tools -> LLB Manager).
    Hard way: Open each VI and then do a File->Save As.

  • How to easily clean broken photos from itunes library

    hi everyone,
    i'm getting really frustrated with this iphoto thing, i always had all my photos organised by folders on my Pictures folder and external hds... and for some crazy reason i decided to give it a go at iphoto so i started organising them on iphoto... but now my biggest pain is i don't carry all my HDs with my photos all the time... i have about 5 HDs with photos plus some photos on my computer... and my wife's computer
    That is really annoying, as every time i open iphone and i don't have everything connected it keeps popping 125 gazillion errors saying server not connected, hd not connected... drives me insane and takes me 20 mins to click cancel on all of them until i'm able to use iphoto....
    i'm at a stage that i have 2 options:
    1. find a way to delete all those broken links from the DB and only use iphoto for my local photos...
    2. go back to my old system that worked pretty well since than, but than how do i remove all the photos that are on iphoto????
    i think apple really stuffed up on this, since there are a lot of people in this forum with the same problem...
    there should be a command on iphoto... search and delete broken links...
    can anyone help???? Please!!!!!
    cheers,
    dan

    Ok so I know this post is very old for me to be answering now, but it's still one of the top hits on google for "fixing broken links in iphoto."
    Anyway, so I had the same problem where I deleted numerous photos from my computer. (slideshows I've made for friends)   Yet their thumbnails were still showing up in iPhoto like they still existed.   Making it difficult to see which ones were technically broken wasn't until I previewed the image in full frame by hitting space-bar that iPhoto would prompt saying "photo is missing"
    So as I was searching my iPhoto library files looking for duplicates I found the thumbnails folder.  For some reason I thought these were duplicate photos so I deleted them all, which turned out to be a helpful trick!  Because upon going back into iPhoto, the program began re-creating all of the thumbnails I just deleted.  Which turned out to be a great work-around.  Now the photos that were broken appeared as empty grey squares.    Figured I'd just to pay it forward and possibly help someone else.

  • How can I remove files from the startup disk

    I am getting a screen when I am trying to quit saying   the "MAC OS X startup disk has no more space available for application memory"  by closing the windows and removing files from the startup disk will help.
    How do I do this?

    That error message is misleading. Your problem is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory.
    That can happen for two reasons:
    You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
    You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    In the Activity Monitor application, select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the  Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
    View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.
    If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
    The process named "Safari Web Content" renders web pages for Safari and other applications. It uses a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider it a prime suspect.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command: 
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

  • How do you remove files from your start up disk without deleting any files?, How do you remove files from your start up disk without deleting any files?

    Hi,
    I was wondering if anyone knew how to remove files from the start up disk without deleting any files?
    I am unable to add any more photos and even download the latest updates because the start up disk is full....
    Is it possible to move the files off the start up disk without deleting them?
    I would appreciate feedback,
    Thanks
    Sammy

    Well you can move them to an external drive but this will delete them from the internal drive. Which is what you have to do to free up disk space.

  • HT201177 How Do I Remove Files From My Start-Up Disk?

    Can someone tell me how to remove files from my start up disk?

    Your startup volume is full. First, reboot. That will temporarily free up some space. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB free for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data.
    Use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space.
    Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To really see everything, you have to run it as root.
    First, back up all data if you haven't already done so. No matter what happens, you should be able to restore your system to the state it was in at the time of that backup.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    After installing ODS in the Applications folder, drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. When you're done with it, quit it and also quit Terminal.
