How to delete audio files if using manual update

hi,
i have my iPod set for manual updating and i just realized that when i delete songs using iTunes the actual files stay on the iPod, wasting disc space. how can i delete those to free up more disc space (other than searching for each song and deleting it manually every time)? i will start using automatic updating evenutally but for now i am stuck with manual updating.
thanks in advance...

Under the "manually manage songs" setting, you should be able to click the little arrow next to your iPod in iTunes. Then, if you want to get rid of a song on your iPod, just select it, and hit backspace. I don't know why this wouldn't work, but it worked with my iPod.

  • 2 Questions: Missing audio files...and How to delete audio files

    I have two nagging issues associated with my podcast at iTunes.
    First, audio files are missing from the podcast. Everytime I post m4a files to my podcast, they are added to an xml file, and to the podcast. The xml file is complete, but some files are not making the trip to the podcast.
    Second, I have a need to delete some of the audio files which appear in my podcast. How do I do that?
    Thanks!

    As has been suggested you can encourage people to download QuickTime player by doing something like this...
    http://www.mirroroftheuniverse.com/Songs.html
    You can also present your songs like this...
    http://roddymckay.com/Satellite/JukeBox.html
    This is a SnoCap jukebox and you need an account to use it but you'll get the link to ESnips on the above page.
    A 3 minute song has a file size of about 30 Mb in AIFF format. Converting it to MP3 reduces it to about 3.5 Mb and M4A to about 5.5 Mb.
    iTunes will do these conversions for you and M4A is far superior to MP3 as far as sound quality is concerned.

  • How to delete when file in use by the finder?

    I have two files in my trash which won't delete. I get the error that they are being used by another program. Holding down option, using secure empty trash, using the terminal method of deleting the trash.. none of them work.
    So I did the terminal command: lsof /path-to-file and found out it was being used by Finder. I don't think I can exactly quit the Finder process in Activity Monitor.. so how can I get these files out of my trash?

    Thanks. Unfortunately, when I quit finder and try to delete the files in the trash by the following command:
    sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash/*
    It tells me "Directory not empty". Argghh..
    I feel like I've tried everything. Can someone give me some other suggestions? Thanks

  • How to delete a file by using batch file

    hi
    i tried for deleting a file from batch filr in Linux environment.
    it is working when i run batch file thruogh command line.
    but its not woking through program.
    i am sending tha code that i used in tha program.
    First i have to create the file and send the information to that file
    and the content from taht file after that i have to delete the file.
    For that i wrote code but the batch is not woking.
    Batch file
    @echo off
    rm filename
    Actual Program Code
    I used RunServer
    public class RunServer extends Object
    RunServer();
    String cmdServer = "test.bat";
    Runtime run = Runtime.getRuntime();
    Process p = null;
    try

    catch(IOException e)
    System.out.println("Error:"+e);
    By using RandomAccessFile i am creating a file
    please help me
    Thankyou

    1) You can't execute a batch without having a shell.
    2) It's totally stupid to run a one-line batch file from system.exec.
    3) It's also totally stupid to delete a file using Runtime altogether.
    But there you go...

  • How to make audio file to use as ringtone on iPhone 5

    Does anyone know how to make a file and then make it a ringtone?

    Make sure iTunes prefs > Import settings is set to AAC.
    In iTunes, find the song you want and note the start/stop time you want the ring tone.
    Right click - get info, click the Options tab and set the start/stop times as above. (Note a 30 second max for ringtones)
    Right click - Create AAC version. This creates a new file.
    Drag this new file from the iTunes window to the desktop.
    Delete the new file from iTunes and also select Delete from hard drive.
    On the desktop, rename the file to what_ever_you_want.m4r (first part you can change to whatever you want & change the extension to .m4r).
    Drag the file back to the iTunes library at top left.
    Make sure iTunes prefs > General has Tones ticked.

  • How do you disable "FILE IN USE" pop-ups so you can actually edit and delete PDFs?!

    Can someone please help me with this query:
    How do you disable "FILE IN USE" pop-ups so you can actually edit and delete PDFs?!
    I continue to have a pop saying that either the file in open somewhere in the serve- which it is not- and I cannot delete a particular pdf or edit it.
    It's incredibly frustrating and in the end I end up having four files with different names because it won't let me edit the original file!!!!

    Hi Amila1,
    Are the pdfs stored on a network location?
    If so is the Preview pane turned ON?
    Please check the doc: http://kb.globalscape.com/KnowledgebaseArticle10862.aspx

  • How to delete zip file in sftp server

    Hi Gurus,
    I am having one .zip file with data files inside on the sftp server. Can you please how to delete the .zip files in the sftp server. I am able to delete normal files by using 'rm' on sftp.
    And one more request my sftp is prompting for the password everytime, then i need to enter the password manually. Can any one suggest how to write in shell script to accept that.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Nagendra

    You might want to look into user equivalence and configure a certificate for ssh so it does not prompt for a password.
    It will also allow you to use sftp without a prompt for a password.
    On the server side:
    Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and remove the # from the following:
    RSAAuthentication yes
    PubkeyAuthentication yes
    AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys
    Then restart the ssh server:
    /etc/init.d/sshd restart
    Login as the user for whom this is for:
    su - <username>
    mkdir .ssh
    chmod 700 .ssh
    On the client side:
    Run the following command:
    ssh-keygen -t rsa (omit password)
    Then use the following to copy the public key from the client to the
    corresponding login .ssh directory on the server side;
    scp .ssh/id_rsa.pub username@remote_host:.ssh/authorized_keys

  • How to delete Audio Lectures from iTunesU

    I Just wanted to ask How to delete Audio Lectures from iTunesU?

    If you are using automatic syncing, you must have set up the shuffle's Books screen in iTunes, to tell iTunes how to sync audiobooks to the shuffle.  You go to the Books screen by selecting the shuffle in iTunes, to see the row of "buttons" that starts with Summary.  Click on Books there...
    If you set up that screen to sync audiobooks to the shuffle, you just need to uncheck the books you no longer want on the shuffle, and click Apply.
    If you loaded the shuffle using the manual method (drag and drop items on the shuffle in iTunes), please post back.

  • Question:  why isn't how to delete a file available.

    How come you have to search for the information on how to delete a file from Adobe Reader.   This should be in the instructions on how to use with how to download.  Does anyone agree?

    If it is a system file and even if the file is corrupted, it cannot be deleted.
    Try reinstalling phone software using Nokia suite if the phone supports Nokia suite and an USB port.

  • How to delete the file with space in name

    Hi
    I want to delete the file "test ex.txt" file.
    i run the following command in command prompt.i can delete the file successfully.
    /bin/rm -f /mnt/"test ex.txt"
    I want to run the command from java.So i am using the following code
    String cmd = "/bin/rm -f /mnt/\"test ex.txt\"";
         Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
    process = rt.exec(cmd);
    The file was not deleted.
    How to delete the file with space in name?
    Help me

    Use the form of exec that takes an array of command + args.
    arr[0] = "/bin/rm"
    arr[1] = "-f"
    arr[2] = "/home/me/some directory with spaces";Or use ProcessBuilder, which is the preferred replacement for Runtime.exec, and which Runtime.exec calls.

  • How to delete recent file history in adobe reader in Mac PC ?

    How to delete recent file history in Adobe Reader in Mac PC ?
    In Adobe Reader - Edit - Preferences - select Documents in the left panel and change the "Documents in recently used list" to 0. Yes ! the file history is gone But when you set back the value, you will see the file history again. This is not the way to do...
    I have checked all the preference or setting. I couldn't found any clear recent file history in adobe reader.
    Please help ! Thanks !

    First off, you CANNOT set recent documents to zero. The absolute minimum it will accept is 1. And on my MacMini, (I just checked it to be 100% sure) I opened seven documents with Recent Docs set to 10 - they were ALL listed. I set it to 1 and all but the most recent cleared. I then closed Reader and reopened it. The list was 1 item. I reset Recent Docs to 10 and there was still only 1 item in the list.

  • Deleting audio file on device + Mac once and for all

    Deleting audio file on device + Mac once and for all
    Hi and good day,
    I don't listen much to music, but mostly audio files (radio programmes etc.)
    But there is still one big drawback with iTunes:
    What I want to do is to be able to __delete__ an audio file (or song)
    on my iPad/iPod/iPhone (the Mac Library is there via Home Sharing)
    once and for all:
    I don't want to have to go back to iTunes and delete them there.
    I want to delete them on the device and forget about them!
    Please Apple it's about time.
    Any suggestions welcome!

  • How to delete Hyperion Planning member using ODI

    Hi All,
    Anyone know how to delete Hyperion Planning member using ODI? And how to update account type on Hyperion Planning Using ODI?
    e.g.:

    Edited by: Sumardi Wijaya on Mar 31, 2009 10:57 PM

    Hi,
    To delete a member you use the Operation column, the following values can be used.
    Update – This is the default and is used if not populated, it Add, updates, moves the member being loaded.
    Delete Level 0 - Deletes the member being loaded if it has no children
    Delete Idescendants –Deletes the member being loaded and all of its descendants.
    Delete Descendants –Deletes the descendants of the member being loaded, but does not delete the member itself.
    Does the member you trying to change to Revenue have a variance reporting set to "Expense" as it will need to be set to "Non Expense"
    Also in your interface you can add logging options in the IKM, this maybe will give a clearer indication where your problem lies.
    Cheers

    This appears related to Bug 3298797 that was supposed to be fixed in 10.2.0.1. The workaround is to switch over to the standby, register the standby and then switch back.
