How do I reset the number of plays in my iTunes library to the accurate count?

The songs in my iTunes have an extremely large number of plays.  The number of plays is nowhere close to being accurate.  I want to reset to the accurate count.  I do not want to start at zero.  Can someone solve this problem?

Do you have the accurate count?  If you don't and iTunes doesn't then nobody does.  Here's a script that will set it to your heart's desired playcount, but what number it uses is up to you.

  • How can I reset the number authorized Macs in my account?

    How can I reset the number authorized Macs in my account? Two old Macs that I no longer have are still authorized, which leaves me with three working macs at home.

    Hello Joe
    You will find your answer on this page. In summary you have to deauthorize each of the 2 Macs on the Mac thenself. If it's no longer possible, then you have to deauthorize all five Macs and then reauthorize each 3 remaining

  • Bought a second ipad.  How do I reset the first one for my wife?

    My wife has different interests than I.  The books I have on my IPAD are of no interest to here and the games she plays are of no interest to me.  How do I reset the user name on the one IPAD to be hers?

    As long as shes signed in to her Apple ID on her iPad, if she goes to the iBooks app and then to the Store, there should be a section labeled Purchased there, and then she can download the book she wants straight to her iPad since she already puchased once and is authorized to download it to any other iOS device.

    Is this the mac app store version? A number of people are having this problem. This is what adobe recommended in the past for fixing the problem, but as far as I know it doesn't work in Yosemite:

  • How can I reset the has disappeared

    How can I reset the pass code in restrictions? I have an iPhone 5c - my SIRI has disappeared & can't retrieve it until I get through that. Would like to turn restrictions off...

    Tresb444 wrote:
    Well, thank you - yes, I understand the purpose of setting up a pass code - but, truth is my grandson was playing with my phone & set a pass code in the restrictions settings, not in the initial operation of my phone.  Therefore, my phone functions fine, other than my SIRI has obviously been affected & has disappeared from my phone & I can't retrieve it unless I put this pass code in.
    Then ask your grandson to tell you what he set as the restrictions passcode.  If he cannot remember, then you'll either have to use the device, as is, or restore it using the article that I linked.

    Call Apple sales support. Something apparently went wrong in your transaction. In the USA the number is 1-800-676-2775.
    Best of luck.

  • How do I reset the e-printer's web embedded server network password?

    I have an HP Photosmart 7520 e-all in one. I use Windows 7.  I could tried to set a password in the EWS network tab. I could not change the user name so it remains "admin". I set the passwork and it seemed ok. But when I tried to log on again, it would not let me in. How do I reset the network password?

    I recommend that you run "Restore Network Defaults" from the front panel and then run the wireless setup wizard again.  This will wipe out all your network settings.

  • Can't Open File Explorer -- How can I reset the Quick Access Toolbar from outside of File Explorer?

    First of all, this is not a virus. This is my a bug within windows explorer itself.
    So, I added the properties button to the QAT, and it displayed it as an expandable menu, like this: ";" but with small arrows like this: ">". didn't want this, I wanted to click on it and immediately display the properties of the file
    to me. So, I hovered over it, right-clicked on "Properties" in this menu and added it to the QAT. Of course, this crashes File Explorer. Now whenever I try and open it, it crashes, so I have to assume that the corrupted button has been saved.
    So, my question is: How do I reset the QAT from OUTSIDE of file explorer? Regedit magic? Any ideas?
    Thanks for stopping by,
    Trolleyman.
    Edit: Just so you know, I can navigate through my systems files using the 7-zip file manager. Phew.

    Thanks from me  too, Niki. This first happened with Windows 8.0 File Manager a week ago,, and despite much research I couldn't  discover the cause so eventually I resorted to restoring  the system drive from backup (luckily I make daily backups, 
    so didn't lose   much  work).
    Without  knowing the cause  a  few days later I again tried to alter  the Quick Access  Toolbar  and the problem reappeared.  Should  I again resort to restoring the entire system drive, the thought horrified me. But
    luckily while doing a bit more research prior to resorting to the same drastic recovery, I cane  across this post  of yours and it worked!
    It doesn't  seem  to be  happening with Office 2007's   or  Wordpad's  Quick Access Toolbar,  so presumably it's a File Explorer bug  (a.k.a. Windows Explorer in Windows 7, of course). Have Microsoft recorded this as
    a  bug -- if not,  why not  -- and when  are they coming up with a fix?

  • ICloud accidentally set-up with erroneous email acct. How do I reset the email originally used to start the Apple ID? I'm stuck in a loop...

    Hi Apple friends! Here's my frustrating situation. When I got the new computer (2012 Macbook Pro), I tried to set up iCloud but accidentally input an erroneous email acct. I cannot access iClod because the email was accidentally input as "[email protected]", not "[email protected]". How do I reset the email originally used to start the Apple ID? I'm stuck in a loop, and not only cannot use iCloud, but I keep getting messages popping up to register my iCloud with a non-existent email...
    Help?
    Sincerely,
    Cole
    [email protected]

    Have you tried to go into System Preferences > iCloud and entering the correct information there? You will first have to "sign out" of the wrong account and then log in with the correct information.
    If that does not work you should direct follow up to the iCloud for Mac forum.
