How do you delete duplicate songs in your library without having to delete each song individually?

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".
I've written a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates. See this  thread for background, including how to delete the extra tracks manually if you prefer.

  • How do you get the restrictions off your phone without having to reset it?

    I forgot the password to my restrictions code and I don't want to reset my phone just to get the restrictions off.

    The only way to remove the restrictions without having to restore the phone is to remember the restrictions passcode. There is no way to bypass it, unless, as stefejobsfan points out, you have a backup that was made before the restrictions were put in place.
    If it could be easily bypassed, it wouldn't be worth squat.

  • How do you remove duplicate images from your all images file on your mac desktop

    How do you remove duplicate images from your all images file on your mac desktop?

    Don't under any circumstances.
    All images is not a file. It's not a place. It's a list. Specifically, it's the result of an instruction: List all the images on my machine.
    When you delete something from All Images, then you have no idea what you're removing from where - files that are part of word processing docs, interface elements, corrupting your iPhoto Library. There are many perfectly legitimate reasons why you might have what appears to be duplicates but are not.
    Rule number One: Never delete anything on your machine whose job you don't understand.

  • How do i delete a song from my ipod without having to delete the whole album or artist?

    How do I delete a song from my ipod without having to delete the entire album or artist?

    Open the music app and select the Songs view. Swipe your finger to the right along any song and then press the red Delete button that appears.
    You can also delete individual songs in iTunes by selecting a single song and pressing Delete on your keyboard.

  • How do you see the size of your library now in iTunes 11?

    On iTunes 10 when you were looking at your song list, at the bottom everyone has seen the small informative text that tells you how many days it would take to listen to the songs that you currently have on the screen. Where is that information now??
    How do you see the size of your library, or is there an option in iTunes 11 that will allow you to enable a way to see that text again at the bottom of your screen?

    In the menu bar, open "view", and click "show status bar"
    (Or the shortcut to toggle it is CTRL + / )

  • How do you open a book on your library shelf?

    Adobe digital editions is unnecessarily difficult to use.  It doesn't have to look like a library it just has to work.  I cannot seem to open a book or change the list on the shelf.  I want to change the order of the list and cannot do that.  Listen guys just make it easier.  Highlight your choice, select it and voila open it...and start reading.    ?  I downloaded a book and can't open it ---then all the way on the right side of the page it says missing.  How is it missing? It is on my list.
    someone please Help.
    Thank you

    I tried that but only had 3 choices.....open, delete and sometig else I can't see right now.  anyway...programmers should lie writers consider wh0 they are writing for.  Some of us, (and who are people who read most?Oldsters, invalids, those who are not physically active) are stay at home and older and not so computer savvy.  If your program is too convoluted for lots of people , your product will not get used and your company will not make any money. Your product will fall by the waside infavor of more easily used programs.
    I will work it out because I am not the type to give up.  But I will not enjoy it.  Thanks for your help.

    Don't panic!  Things aren't that bad.... We all expect programs to work in a certain way, based on what we thinkthey should do and how they should do it.  BUT - we're users, notprogrammers, so what THEY think is what WE have to work with.  So, how harda program is to use has a lot to do with the differences in viewpoint arebetween the programmers and you.  You can ease the pain by reading the HELPsection in ADE (F1 key from Library view), which has explanations of how itworks. You can change the display order in Library mode easily.  The upper rightcorner of the screen has a box that shows you how the library items arebeing displayed now.  Put your cursor on the small arrow next to it.  Clickon that arrow, and a drop-down box will show you what your options are -all seven of them. If an ebook is 'missing', it could be that the download process did notfinish correctly.  That could happen for a number of reasons beyond thecontrol of ADE, including disconnection before the ebook was finalized, a'hiccup' during the download, an issue with the ebook's data and other notso common problems.  Try deleting the title from your Library anddownloading the ebook again.  That's all I can suggest, because I haven'tfound a way to 'fix' that situation without doing another download. ============

    Is it possible to uncheck all the songs in my library without having to do it individually ?

    Select the items you want to uncheck.  In your case, click on any item and then do a Select All (from the Edit menu or Cmd-A on keyboard).  Right-click on selection and select Uncheck Selection.

  • I have over 16,000 songs in my iTunes library so I manually manage the music on all my devices. I bought a new iPod to replace an older one. I'd like to transfer all 900 songs to my new device without having to handpick each song. Is there a way to do it?

    I have over 16,000 songs in my iTunes library so I manually manage the music on all my devices. I bought a new iPod to replace an older one. I'd like to transfer all 900 songs to my new device without having to handpick each song from my music library. Is there a way to do it?

    No. I have quite a few more 16,000, so I don't manually manage. Making playlists for each device makes things much easier to organize. You can create regular lists of essential tracks and smart playlists to automatically catch new content, top rated, most played etc. If you'd done it this way all along configuring a new or restored device would be the work of moments.

  • Why can't I delete all incoming messages at once without having to select each one first. It can be done while in the "Trash" folder, but not the "IN" folder.

    Why can't I delete all incoming messages at once without having to select each one first. It can be done while in the "Trash" folder, but not the "IN" folder.

    Well, what I see happing is this: Tapping edit and checking the first message brings up the “Delete” option. Holding it until the red message “Delete Message” appears, then letting go of the red button and tapping the checked button makes the “Delete Message” message go away. The checked message is still checked with an option to delete just that message. Tap the checked message again just cancels the whole process and I’m back to square one.
    However, if I check a message that is part of a thread of messages and tap Delete, I have the option of deleting all messages in the thread.
    Perhaps the fact that I’m using the 3rd generation of the iPad is the problem, but your suggestion isn’t working.

  • How do I convert multiple PDFs to XML without having to open each file individually?

    How do I convert multiple PDFs to XML without having to open each file individually?

    XML for what?   XML is just a way to structure data - it's nothing in and of itself.
    However, you have to open the file (even if it's not user visible) in order to perform any operation on it - otherwise how would the data be read??
    Are you looking to do this on a desktop or server machine?  What OS platform(s)?  What programming environment?

  • I am trying to delete a large number of songs from my Itunes library without having to delete them one at a time.  How do I do that?

    I am trying to delete a large number of songs from my itunes library without having to do it one at a time.  How can I do this.  All of my songs have check marks by them.  Help!

    Then I suspect you do not have iTunes Match enabled. Using that "delete all" command in the Settings does not remove the music from the cloud, nor does it disable iTunes Match. With iTunes Match enabled you will still see all the music.
    So go to Settings > iTunes and App Store and make sure iTunes Match is set to ON (green).

  • How do I prevent CS4 from crashing opon opening without having to delete Flexnet Publisher.

    When I open CS4, it crashes with out an error message box coming up.  The second attempt, it crashes with the message box saying, Error 150:30, Licensing for this product has stopped working.  I then have to go to the hard drive > library > application support > Flexnet publisher and delete it.  I then can open up CS4 and it stays open.  I have had to do this procedure for many months. I am using Mac OS.6.8.  Is there a way of preventing CS4 from crashing without having to go through this procedure?

    If it crashes, you would get a crash report dialog.
    It sounds like you either have a bad install, or a bad license.
