How do I remove default genres in iTunes 11?

I don't mean any genres I've added myself, but default genres already in the program, like "Pop."   In the past you could edit the localizable.strings file, but the genres no long seem to be there.  There is a genresLoc.plist file but that also does not seem to have a list of genres in it.  Again, I've done this in past versions of iTunes but can't seem to find information on how to do this in the latest version.  Everything posted on the subjhect seems to be out-of-date and related to previous versions.
Please do not post a link to the same MacWorld article from 2007 that I've seen a few times.  This is iTunes 11 on a Mac that I need to change.

Two Windows scripts to make playlists of Duplicates and Exact Duplicates. Use shift-delete to remove selected tracks from the library as well as the playlist.
There is also my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping. See this thread for background.

  • How do I delete default genres in iTunes 11.3?

    It used to be a case of editing the localized.strings file, but this no longer works. Anyone know where the list of default genres can be found now?

    This is a source of frusteration for many people! There are some programs you can purchase which I have never used that will dedupe your library for you.
    Alternatively there are some awesome tricks found here http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/scripts.asp  and free too! I am new at this but here's how I understand it : They are vbs scripts so what you do is copy the text for whatever you are trying to do into a notepad file, then save the notepad file (file-save as) as anyname.vbs, and on the drop down menu below select save as all file types. Then your notepad file will be magically transformed into a vbs file which, after opening itunes, you click on it and it does its thing. There are different scripts for different functions eg deduping, clearing dead tracks, etc.
    Let me know if you have any  questions. Samsoft saved me so much time.

  • How do you remove unplayed podcasts in iTunes 11.1

    How do you removed unplayed podcasts from iTunes 11.1?  The new version lists all of the available podcasts, including those that have already been played.  As a result it is necessary to scroll through very long lists of podcasts to see what is available on the next podcast.

    What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization.  With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options.  If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast.  I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
    What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why?  How is this making it a better program?  I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was).  But to not give users the option to delete that list?  It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating.  I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature.  It smacks of rank incompetence.
    What improvement were they trying to make here anyway?  There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions.  Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
    And reverting to a previous version is no solution.  I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

    How can i remove a card from iTunes ?

    If you want to remove a credit/debit card from your account then on your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your iOS device then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
    Changing payment info : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
    If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen : Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?

    How can I remove credit card from itunes account?

    I'm not home right now, so don't have iTunes here. I am basing this on having to do this a few days ago, as well as pictures from Google Images, so things may have different names now...
    Store (dropdown at top of iTunes screen)>View my account>Edit Payment Information>In the list of types of credit cards, the one at the far right says "None." Click that.

  • How can I remove a podcast from iTunes if iTunes is locked up.

    I added a password protected podcast and iTunes locks up on the authentication dialog. Spinning beachball... only thing I can do is force quit.
    Earlier solution was to go in and manually disable podcasts with Xcode. but then i can't play any of my podcasts.
    The recent itunes update fixed the problem, sort of. it allowed me to use itunes normally again. But, I tried to subscribe to the podcast agin and... yup, same thing.

  • How can I remove default alarm for events in iCal on devices ios?

    Whenever I add an event to my iCal calendar in Mounain Lion it will automatically add one default alert only on my iphone and ipad. These default alarms are not displayed on my macbook or icloud.com
    Default alarms are disabled in macbook, icloud.com, and my ios devices.
    How can I remove default alarm for events in iCal on devices ios?
    Thanks and sorry for my english.
    MacBook Pro, Mac OS X 10.8

    OK, so I have had this issue for the past several months. I think it all started when I upgraded to ML from SL and migrated my calendars and contacts to iCloud. That was a couple months ago. But now I am running 10.8.2, and about two weeks ago I upgraded my iOS devices to 6.0.1.
    I don't seem to be having any issues with events that I create now, but all those old events that were migrated to iCloud a couple months ago, many of those sound alerts on the iOS devices even though there was no alert defined when the event was originally created. I have always had alerts off by default both in iCal and on the iOS devices.
    So here's the question: is there a way to go through and disable all these spurious event alerts? I've been disabling them as the event reminders come up, but it's irritating. It would be nice if there was a way to turn them off all in one shot somehow.

    You could either remove the iCloud account altogether and have him create his own or go into settings->store-> and switch automatically download Apps off.  And go into icloud and turn off photostream.  Depends on what you prefer.
