How do I get rid of 100's of duplicate PLAYLISTS?

Have you subscribed to iTunes Match? There is a bug that can sometimes create hundreds of duplicate empty playlists. I've two scripts which might help you clean up: KillEmptyPlaylists and KillTopLevelPlaylists. This post describes a technique for resetting iTunes Match to stop it happening again.

  • How can I get rid of and prevent further duplicate contacts when syncing?

    I have checked preventing automatic syncing and any other places that seemed to give me some limiting conrol. But I noted the tiny print today that says when syncing by connection with Itunes, mobile me is also in contact wirelessly. I can't see any place mobile me gives me a choice to prevent syncing contacts. I have already spent hours cleaning up the contacts of my iphone 4 and will now have to do it again. Is the only way not to connect to I tunes? How then can you ever get music and other info into this smart phone?

  • How can I get rid of all of the duplicates in my contacts without having to go in one at at time?

    Some of my contacts are listed 4-6 times...making my contact list over 8000!  How can I streamline this without having the delete one at at time
    PLUS how do I keep this from happening again.

    Go in Settings. Then in "Itunes & AppStore". Deselect "Music" and "Videos" on top. This would solve the problem with the Music and Videofiles in the cloud, that you seem to see.
    The music isn't actually on your iphone. It just shows you what is in the cloud.

  • How can i get rid of a lot of duplicate songs?

    Hi,
    after the transfer of an itunes librairy on my new imac, my teenaged boy have done the same with his own itunes librairy, but there are a lot of duplicate (more than a thousand). I want to sent them to the trash, but manually it's a tiring and boring job, automator doesn't have this kind of command, and i'm not educated in using applescript.
    I need HELP for this purpose;
    A lot of thank for the one(s) who will be able to help me
    Sincerely yours
    Pierre MINTZ

    Well, this is probably not free but the utility called "Spring cleaning" has a module which automatically deletes duplicate files ... assuming they have the same name ?
    Maybe this helps ?

  • Why does an outline and the name of a file stay in Microsoft Word after I delete the actual document? How do I get rid of this?

    I was told to post this question on the Microsoft Word for Mac forum, but I have no idea how to get to that. After I delete a file, I can no longer access it, but the name and a dotted line outline (but not a picture of the actual document) remain. I want this gone, as it is fairly annoying to be able to see 100+ documents that should no longer exist on my computer. It is cluttered, and someone mentioned that it might have something to do with a setting in microsoft for the number of documents displayed, or something along those lines. If anyone can tell me how to PERMANENTLY get rid of these documents, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Google "Microsoft Word for Mac forum". This is what comes up.

  • I have set up mail but it has 37000 mails to load, obviously very old stuff but how do I get rid without loading and deleting, take days?

    I have set up mail but it has 37000 mails to load, obviously very old stuff but how do I get rid without loading and deleting, take days?

    Go under settings, mail, contacts and calendars and then choose only to sync back 50 or 100 or 1000 mails. Chances are you don't really need the old ones on your device and it'll save room (I have mine set to 50)

    There is no such software for an iDevice. If you mean on your computer:
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Problems
    If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide and The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Tool. Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.

    If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using ClamXAV. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for this recommendation.)
    From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
    The facts are:
    1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
    2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
         is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
    3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
         the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
         techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
    4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
        your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
        protection against malware.
    5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
        from which they purport to protect you.
    6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
    7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
    8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
        you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
    9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

That is really the only app that doesn't want to disappear after installation. Any thoughts or ideas out there in the world wide web?

  • Can not get rid of cannot verify server identity pop up, how can i get rid of it for 3rd gerneration ipad?

    how can I get rid of cannot verify server identity pop up on my new 3rd generation ipad?

    A [http://www.google.com/search?q=Brookwood+Internist+Birmingham&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a Google search] shows the website, but it still doesn't load - it shows the Go-Daddy '''Want to buy this domain?''' page.
    Using a DNS Lookup for that domain - http://68.178.232.100/ doesn't load that web site either. It shows '''This site is not currently available.'''
    Might be a server problem where that website is hosted, a DNS problem, or an expired domain name ''(but when that happens the message is usually '''expired registration''')''.
    Call your doctors office Monday morning and tell them that their website won't load. It's something that their webmaster needs to look into, along with their web hosting service ''(which I guess is Go-Daddy)''.

  • When capturing video; how do I get rid of the green lines at the bottom of the frame?

    When capturing video; How do I get rid of the green lines at the bottom of the frame?

    s.haider
    You have Canon ZR950 mini DV Camcorder, why not make a firewire connection and do DV data capture into the Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 Capture Window?
    Do you have any reference for what you are attempting to do or is this a creation of your own? Could you confirm what you describe as "just capturing video".
    a. From your information, you are doing Get Media/Webcam or WDM Device with the Capture Window showing the Capturing Device as "Dazzle DVD 100 Video Device". What type of connection are you making between the Canon ZR950 and the Dazzle DVD 100 and the computer?
    b. What exactly do you expect to be putting on the Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 Timeline from this capture...DV AVI or something else?
    Coming from the perspective of Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 known issues, I would ask you to consider:
    a. Remove the check mark next to AutoAnalyzer in the Capture window. Even if you were doing this Capture the "usual way", that is highly recommended.
    b. Go to Edit Menu/Preferences/General, and compare your results with and without a check mark next to enable GPU playback. As a cross reference, please go to Edit Header/Effects/Video Effects and detemine if there is a category of Effects named GPU Effects. Do the same thing for Edit Header/Transitions/Video Transitions and determine if there is a category of Transitions named GPU Transitions.
    And, the general drill for all users of Premiere Elements 8.0
    a. Are you working with the automatic Background Rendering and AutoAnalzyer Features turned Off?
    See Premiere Elements workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/General for background rendering option and Elements Organizer workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/AutoAnalzyer Options for AutoAnalzyer options.
    b. Are you working from the 8.0.1 Update version of the program?
    Please consider.
    We will be watching for the outcome.
    Thank you.

  • How can i get rid of the zeroes after sub-division of arrays?

    Hi
    i have sub-divided a long 1-D array (50000 samples) into a number of smaller sub-arrays with different lengths build in a 2-D array. What happened is, where the sub-arrays end, Labview adds zeroes to them to match the length of the biggest array (558 length). How do i get rid of the zeroes?I just need to have the actual length of each sub-array with now zeroes to it. I have attached my vi
    Thank you

    Hey guys,
    when posting examples, don't retain bad programming, even if it only occurs as a side issue. New LabVIEW users will copy everything posted here as gospel!
    Ben's workaround is sound, but please refrain form keeping a "cruncher loop". An empty loop without wait will consume all CPU and possible starve all other running processes for no good reason. That polling loop needs a small wait statement!
    An empty loop without any wait statement will:
    Will spin millions of times per second using 100% of the CPU.
    run many iterations before allowing a thread switch.
    Add 10 such loops in any program and the program will be unusable (thread gobbling!).
    Even a 1ms wait will reduce the CPU consumptions by many orders of magnitude.
    Even a 100ms delay will not noticeably delay any user actions.
    Waiting for a button press is not something that needs to be handled within nanoseconds.
    Cruncher loop!
    Easy correction: place a smal wait inside that loop!

  • Launchpad displaying unknown files and icons. how can i get rid of this?

    Launchpad on my 3 week old 13inch macbook pro with OS Lion, is displaying all sorts of strange files and icons, some of which include: disk image mounter, dock,  how can I get rid of this? ods agent, 50onPaletteServer, spotlight.service, SCIM, TCIM, makePDF, PressAndHold, MassStorageCamera- to name but a few! Theres over 100 of these icons and I have no idea what they are and where they came from? whilst using googlechrome yesterday my macbook suddenly slowed down and all running programmes froze. i eventually got all programmes closed and restarted twice and was still running slow. Today it is up to normal speed but I noticed how Launchpad is totally messed up and I dont know how to get rid or move any of these icons, that is if they are even meant to be there. Im not sure if it is relevant but I shall also add that the Hard Disk Icon was randomly being displayed on my desktop as well.
    Any help on whats happening to my launchpad and what these icons are would be greatly appriciated.
    Thanks, Beth.

    I will also add that none of these icons exist when I view my applications folder in Finder.
