How to delete duplicates in I tunes windows 7?

I had to restore my Windows 7 PC, now I have hundreds of duplicates in my Itunes folder, how do I delete them?

One at a time... in the future do not create duplicates. 
Forum regular TuringTest2 has created a de-duper script which can be found here http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/scripts.asp

  • How to delete duplicate songs itunes for windows?

    How to delete multple duplicates of songs on Itunes for windows?

    Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
    The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to. There are other ways to deal with deal links alone, but those won't preserve that information.

  • HT204406 How to delete duplicate songs from Libary without deleting them from play list or other devices

    How to delete duplicate songs from libary without deleting them from playlist or other devices

    I'm with you verm71; it's not entirely clear how Apple is expecting you to manage this.  I'm going on vacation soon and want to clean up my phone so that it's nice and empty for the new pictures.  There doesn't seem to be a way to do this without losing your pictures in the new Photos as well.  If imported, it's impossible to see which is the Cloud version and which is the Local version.  It's very annoying.
    I've also noticed in iPhoto you used to have the ability to locate the original of the picture inside the photo database.  That option is not provided in Photos, making finding the original extremely difficult.
    It seems to be a great, well-oiled system.  But I would love to know how Apple envisions the typical workflow for archiving...

  • How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library

    How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library in iPhone 3G 16 giga?

    The only way to delete photos from the photo library is by the same way the photos were transferred to your iPhone - via the iTunes sync process.
    Are you saying a photo or all photos transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process are duplicated in your iPhone's Photo Library without being duplicated in the folder on your computer where these photos are stored?

If so, there is no point answering because I wouldn't touch this job with a ten foot pole.

  • HT5043 How to delete duplicate photos

    how to delete duplicate photos in iphoto

    iPhoto has no built-in duplicate detector. You can spot duplicates by sorting your photos by title or date, or use third-party applications like iPhoto Library Manager, Duplicate Annihilator, Photo Sweeper.
    Old Toad has published a great list of apps that can screen your iPhoto Library for duplicates, see this link:
    Re: How can I search for duplicate photos in iPhoto libraries?
    My favourite is Photo Sweeper, because it lets me stay in control of what will be deleted, shows all metadata, lets me define the criteria for marking duplicates, and can recognise duplicates of different sizes, based on histograms or pixel maps.  PhotoSweeper

  • Does anyone know how to delete duplicate photographs will it affect photostream

    Does anyone know how to delete duplicate photographs I seem to have so many, is this anything to do with photostream as I have an ipad as well. I have over 7000 photos and find it impossible to find them all. When I first got Apple 9 years ago there was a drop down menu that found all duplicates which you could then delete but that was taken off at some point. I would be really gratful for some help i am not savvy with the technical side of computing.

    For dealing with duplicates in iPhoto check out Duplicate Annihilator or Decloner or iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner or  iPhoto Library Manager

  • How to delete duplicate records in cube

    Hi,
    can u help me how to delete the duplicate records in my cube
    and tell me some predifined cubes and data sourcess for MM and SD modules

    Hi Anne,
    about "duplicate records" could you be more precise?.
    The must be at least one different Characteristic to distinguish one record from the other (at least Request ID). In order to delete Data from InfoCubes (selectively) use ABAP Report RSDRD_DELETE_FACTS (be carefull it does not request any confirmation as in RSA1 ...).
    About MM and SD Cubes see RSA1 -> Business Content -> InfoProvider by InfoAreas. See also for MetadataRepository about the same InfoProviders.
    About DataSources just execute TCode LBWE in you source sys: there you see all LO-Cockipt Extrators.
    Hope it helps (and if so remember reward points)

  • How to delete duplicate entries in table for the object DNL_CUST_BASIS2

    Hi All,

    In the SMQ2 the status is SYSFAIL.
    I checked in the ST22 for dumps.It says about the error while accessing the table T006.
    While analysing this,i found some duplicate entries in the related tables of this object.
    Can somebody help me how to delete these duplicate entries?
    Thanks,
    Senthil.

    Delete them directly from the table using se16:
    select the entries in the classic view (not ALV or grid view).
    activate the debugger.
    press the view button. --> you'll enter in the debugger
    press F7
    locate the sy-ucomm variable & change it to "DELE".
    press F8
    delete the entries.
    Trick-shots
    but it works!

  • How to delete duplicate music in itunes

    I have been downloading a lot of my old CD's and have found I have a lot of duplicate songs from a variety of my album sets...how can I delete them so I only have one of each one?
    thanks!
    Jan

    Dupin may be what you need. If you have the same song as part of different albums then, in my opinion, these aren't really duplicates. Personally I wouldn't throw away some of the tracks on the Beatles "White Album" because I also have them on the "Blue Album".
    For some more thoughts, including tips on how to manually delete duplicates if you have the patience, see this post. It's written from a PC perspective so you may need to use Option or Cmd instead of Shift or Ctrl.
