How eliminate 'duplicate' podcasts ?

How eliminate 'duplicate' podcasts from my lists? Somehow a lot of the podcasts I've subscribed to have within them duplicates of each podcast issue. I can go thru and select each duplicate and then trash, but isn't there an easier way? There's a lot of them.
And i'm surprised iTunes didn't alert me that this might happen. Like when I'm downloading photos I'm always alerted that I already have that and do i wish to replace the current one, or not make duplicates.
I believe the problem started thusly: Some of the podcasts I've subscribed to suddenly stopped arriving with new issues (or whatever you call each weekly episode, or whatever). And I know that those podcasts are still active and issuing new ones weekly so I don't know why I wasn't getting the weekly updates. So in my ignorance I went to the iTunes Store and subscribed again to the same. I thought that would get me back on track. I trusted that it would alert me and not send me duplicates. But it did.
So I guess I have 2 questions. 1) How to eliminate the duplicates easily? That's the main Question. I'd be satisfied with the answer to that.
and 2) What do I do when I suddenly stop getting updated episodes of podcasts I know are active and issuing updates I'm not getting.
Thanks very much for your help. I will gratefully award the helpiest answers.

i have the same problem. surprised no one has offered you a solution yet.

If you mean a duplicated series?
Grouping podcasts
A podcast series will split up in this way when its feed is moved to a new URL. Merging the series requires editing all the older episodes so that they appear to have come from the current feed. Download and install Mp3Tag (not sure of a Mac equivalent offhand). Use it to explore the Extended tags of podcasts from the same series. PODCASTURL (formerly ITUNESPODCASTURL) is used to link different podcasts from the same subscription (as opposed to fields like Album & Album Artist etc.) and PODCASTID (formerly ITUNESPODCASTID) determines the order. Everything else seems to be optional. Backup your files, tweak a few a tags then highlight the changed files in turn in iTunes with the image pane set to Selected item. This is marginally quicker for small numbers of files than using select, Get Info, OK to get iTunes to refresh its knowledge of the tags. Erm, last I checked the method no longer works anyway. If iTunes still fails to notice the updated tags try my script UpdateTagInfo (Win).
As far as I'm aware the order is determined by the PODCASTID, but if you need/want to modify the Release Date then in MP3Tag/Extended Tags it corresponds to RELEASETIMEin the format yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ssZ, e.g. 2008-02-20T09:10:52Z

Create a smart playlist with the rule Podcast is true, display exact duplicates, and then apply my DeDuper script.

My itunes has created a duplicate podcast folder. How can I delete this? I can't sync my podcasts to my ipod because there are now two Podcast folders.

How do I delete the duplicate podcast folder? Because there are two podcast folders it is stopping my ipod nano from syncing when i plug it in. I have searched the libraries on the hard drive but this extra podcast folder can't be found.

I have figured out a workaround that may work for you. It doesn't address the cause of the problem but it has gotten me past the problem. Note: Mac OSX
1. Make note of all of the podcasts that you currently have in each of your folders. You will need this to get back to your current position if you choose.
2a. Right click on the first of the two folders named Podcast. (Command Click, two-finger tap, as appropriate.) Delete should appear as an option. Select it. All of the contents and subscriptions in that folder will be lost.
On my system, Delete appeared as an option only on the first of the two folders named Podcast.
2b. I deleted the contents of the second folder but, in retrospect, I don't think that was necessary.
3. You should now be left with just one Podcast folder.
4. Go to the iTunes store and resubscribe or download the podcasts you wish to restore. All of the podcasts should appear in the one remaining podcast folder. When I hit refresh to check, it did not crash this time.
5. Sync to your ipod. I got a warning message about the mismatch, said ok and let the sync proceed. It appears to have worked, as it did on my ipad.
Messy but it worked. Hope it helps both you, evechoc and ifan94.
Good luck!

How to eliminate duplicates from multiple subscriptions in iCal?

Is there a way to eliminate duplicate entries created when subscribing to multiple calendars? As an example - I have a subscription with each of my kids school calendars (one is in middle school the other elementary). I end up with several duplicates such as the following:
February 14, 2014
* Valentines Day (calendar)
* Valentines Day (elementary)
* Valentines Day (middle school)
Thanks for your help!
-Curt

Your specification can be interpreted more than one way.
In the examples you give, "duplicate records" not only have the same EMPNO, but all the data is the same. If this is what you are trying to avoid, use DISTINCT. Instead ofFROM EMP_TEST Ewrite FROM (select distinct * from EMP_TEST) EThis will eliminate duplicates if and only if every column has the same value.
Again, not sure if this is what you want but it would work for your sample data.
P.S. I agree with sb92075, you should make EMPNO a primary key and avoid the problem altogether.

How to eliminate duplicate copies after doing a sort

I did a filter/sort across 100's of folders then exported the results to a separate folder.
I later noticed way too many duplicates in the new folder.
Does Lightroom have a feature to automatically remove or eliminate duplicates when doing such a process??
If not, any other ideas??

Spaceman, you're basically correct that LR doesn't write your changes to the original file itself. LR is a non-destructive editor, which is really a good thing. It means that if you screw up an edit, you can always go back and start over. Or if you decided to convert the image to B&W, and now want to go back and re-edit it in color, you can do that. There are, however, a couple of ways to do what you want.
The easiest way is to use the Export dialog. This will create a copy of your image(s) with all the edits applied. Those copies can then be viewed in any image viewer program. You can export as jpeg or tiff files. Based on your question, I'm guessing you typically shoot and process jpeg files (since most image viewers won't display raw files), so LR will create new jpegs, with all your edits. You can give these files new names on export, or write them to a different folder. You can even automatically import the images into the LR catalog if you want. (I don't, as if I ever want to re-edit the images I'll start with the original file.)
LR can also write the changes to what's called a "sidecar" file, that you can copy along with the original image file. But I don't think very many apps know what to do with that file, either.

Eliminate duplicate while fetching data from source

Hi All,
CUSTOMER TRANSACTION
CUST_LOC     CUT_ID          TRANSACTION_DATE     TRANSACTION_TYPE
100          12345          01-jan-2009          CREDIT
100          23456          15-jan-2000          CREDIT
100          12345          01-jan-2010          DEBIT
100          12345          01-jan-2000          DEBITNow as per my requirement, i need to fetch data from CISTOMER_TRANSACTION table for those customer which has transaction in last 10 years. In my above data, customer 12345 has transaction in last 10 years, whereas for customer 23456, does not have transaction in last 10 years so will eliminate it.
Now, CUSTOMER_TRANSACTION table has approximately 100 million records. So, we are fectching data in batches. Batching is divided into months. Total 120 months. Below is my query.
select *
FROM CUSTOMER_TRANSACTION CT left outer join
(select distinct CUST_LOC, CUT_ID FROM CUSTOMER_TRANSACTION WHERE TRANSACTION_DATE >= ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE, -120) and TRANSACTION_DATE < ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE, -119) CUST
on CT.CUST_LOC = CUST.CUST_LOC and CT.CUT_ID = CUST.CUT_IDThru shell script, months number will change. -120:-119, -119:-118 ....., -1:-0.
Now the problem is duplication of records.
while fetching data for jan-2009, it will get cust_id 12345 and will fetch all 3 records and load it into target.
while fetching data for jan-2010, it will get cust_id 12345 and will fetch all 3 records and load in into target.
So instead of having only 3 records, for customer 12345 it will be having 6 records. Can someone help me on how can i eliminate duplicate records from getting in.
As of now i have 2 ways in mind.
1. Fetch all records at once. Which is impossible as it will give space issue.
2. After each batch, run a procedure which will delete duplicate records based on cust_loc, cut_id and transaction_date. But again it will have performance problem.
I want to eliminate it while fetching data from source.

You can do it this way....
SELECT DISTINCT cust_doc,
                cut_id
FROM customer_transaction
WHERE transaction_date >= ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE, -120)
   AND transaction_date < ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE, -119)However please note that - if want to get the transaction in a month like what you said earlier jan-2009 and jan-2010 and so on... you might need to use TRUNC...
Your date comparison could be like this... In this example I am checking if the transaction date is in the month of jan-2009
AND transaction_date BETWEEN ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE,'MONTH'), -27) AND LAST_DAY(ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE,'MONTH'), -27)) Your modified SQL...
SELECT *
FROM customer_transaction
WHERE transaction_date BETWEEN ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE,'MONTH'), -27) AND LAST_DAY(ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE,'MONTH'), -27))Testing..
--Sample Data
CREATE TABLE customer_transaction (
cust_loc number,
cut_id number,
transaction_date date,
transaction_type varchar2(20)
INSERT INTO customer_transaction VALUES (100,12345,TO_DATE('01-JAN-2009','dd-MON-yyyy'),'CREDIT');
INSERT INTO customer_transaction VALUES (100,23456,TO_DATE('15-JAN-2000','dd-MON-yyyy'),'CREDIT');
INSERT INTO customer_transaction VALUES (100,12345,TO_DATE('01-JAN-2010','dd-MON-yyyy'),'DEBIT');
INSERT INTO customer_transaction VALUES (100,12345,TO_DATE('01-JAN-2000','dd-MON-yyyy'),'DEBIT');
--To have three records in the month of jan-2009
UPDATE customer_transaction
   SET transaction_date = TO_DATE('02-JAN-2009','dd-MON-yyyy')
WHERE cut_id = 12345
   AND transaction_date = TO_DATE('01-JAN-2010','dd-MON-yyyy');
UPDATE customer_transaction
   SET transaction_date = TO_DATE('03-JAN-2009','dd-MON-yyyy')
WHERE cut_id = 12345
   AND transaction_date = TO_DATE('01-JAN-2000','dd-MON-yyyy');
commit;
--End of sample data
SELECT *
FROM customer_transaction
WHERE transaction_date BETWEEN ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE,'MONTH'), -27) AND LAST_DAY(ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE,'MONTH'), -27));Results....
CUST_LOC     CUT_ID TRANSACTI TRANSACTION_TYPE
      100      12345 01-JAN-09 CREDIT
      100      12345 02-JAN-09 DEBIT
      100      12345 03-JAN-09 DEBITAs you can see, there are only 3 records for 12345
