How to remove "01. [song name]" recursively?

There are several questions in his community that treat the same issue, but I have a different circumstance. I used different software to rip CDs and the actual file name has the track numbers in it. How do I remove this without having to get info on each individual song? (on a related note, how come iTunes doesn't have some rudimentary options for batch renaming songs for the most common problems?)
Thanks

If you use the "Keep..." option, found at Edit > Preferences > Advanced, iTunes will rename your files to the format "## Title" whenever it touches the file.
If that option is off, iTunes does not change the filename at all.
If you use a 3rd party program to rename your files, iTunes will lose them and you will have a mess.

  • How To Delete "Duplicated Songs Names" in iTunes Interface

    Hi,
    I have ripped and stored some songs in Apple Lossless on an external hdd.
    I tried to transfer the songs from the ext. hdd, which is in Apple Lossless, to AAC iTunes and store them on my MacBook Pro, which has smaller hdd.
    Without knowing what went wrong, now my "iTunes interface shows each of the songs that's on my ext. hdd(Apple Lossless) TWICE, but with only ONE copy of the actual songs(Apple Lossless)".
    I was instructed to remove the "duplicated songs names from the inteface" and let the iTunes Library update itself.
    But 5282 songs to "select & delect" the duplicated names in the interface is too "tedious".
    So, is there any FASTER ways that can let me make my iTunes Library back to what it should be?
    Thanks.
    Ed
    ps. I'm not sure, but can I create a NEW iTunes Library, and let it scan and add the songs(in Apple Lossless format and on an external hdd), so that the songs will only show ONCE in my iTunes interface?

    let me start by saying that i let iTunes manage my library, i.e. i have +keep iTunes media folder organized+ and +copy files to ... when adding to library+ checked in preferences > advanced. all that follows below is based on those settings being enabled !
    i'm doing something similar. my Apple lossless files are stored on an external HD. i add these files to my library by *option dragging* them from the external into an open iTunes window. iTunes will index the path to the original's location (the external), but not physically add the files to the main library's drive.
    with the external connected, i then have iTunes convert the lossless files to AAC 256, which are thus added to the main library.
    i, too, have duplicate entries for those files: one being the lossless, the other being the AAC version.
    there is no way around that, unless you manually remove the entries for the lossless files after the conversion.

    i am quite happy with having duplicate, even triplicate entries in my library - i know how and why they are there. so, *... my iTunes Library back to what it should be* may be really quite different from one user to the next.
    there are some tools to help you with the task of removing dupes, one of which is included in iTunes:

    ps. I'm not sure, but can I create a NEW iTunes Library, and let it scan and add the songs(in Apple Lossless format and on an external hdd), so that the songs will only show ONCE in my iTunes interface?
    yes. again, you can *option drag* content from any location into iTunes without copying the actual files. since iTunes 9, there is also the +automatically add to iTunes+ folder - just drop content there and it will be added to the library. and there is alway the good old +add to library+ command under the file menu.
    to start with a clean slate, launch iTunes while pressing option. @ the prompt, choose to +create new library+ and start populating the empty new library by whichever way you like. obviously, creating a new library means all your playlists, playcounts, and ratings will be gone.

  • HT2905 How to remove duplicate songs from the iPhone when the duplicates are not listed in the iTunes library on the computer.

    How can I remove duplicate songs from the iPhone4. The duplicates are not listed in the computer iTunes library.

    The simplest thing may be to back-up and then restore the iPhone. If you don't fancy that then remove all media that is currently synced to it, then double check and manually remove any media that remains on the device, before reselecting your sync options.
    If you've been manually managing the device and your library doesn't contain copies of all your media then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    does the time stamp with the ":" a part of your output file?
    else use a replaceAll function in your mapping and replace the : with empty string then use the value in the variable substitution
    Another option is use the normal BPM for 1: N message flow. The use a simple java mapping that will introduce a dynamic configuration and you can create the file name as you want. the java mapping will be used in the flow of messages from BPM to target system.

  • How to remove alternative netbios name

    We renamed a Windows 2008 R2 x64 server.
    We renamed it by running 
    netdom computername oldname /add:newname
    netdom computername oldname /makeprimary:newname   
    netdom computername newname /remove:oldname
    REF: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc835082.aspx
    This was done in a staged manor over a couple of days with reboot's and other configuration changes to keep services up as much as possible while changing the server's name. From the point of view of active directory everything worked. The object in users and
    computers has changed name, their is no reference to oldname in the AD Database (I spent hours searching in ADSIEdit) and the DNS records are correct. We have even checked the system name table with
    C:\Windows\system32>netdom computername newname /enumerate:ALLNAMES   
    All of the names for the computer are: 
    newname.ourdomain.local   
    The command completed successfully.
    and this shows the single new name :)
    However.....
    The server still responds over netbios to the oldname and the newname. We tracked this back by doing a network capture and proving that it was responding to the old name. After that we ran 
    C:\Windows\system32>nbtstat.exe -n       
    OURDOMAIN:    Node IpAddress: [10.x.y.z] Scope Id: []                        NetBIOS Local Name Table 
                 Name               Type         Status     
    NEWNAME     <00>  UNIQUE      Registered
    OURDOMAIN   <00>  GROUP       Registered       
    NEWNAME     <20>  UNIQUE      Registered       
    OLDNAME     <20>  UNIQUE      Registered
    outputs modified for obvious reasons.
    We have looked in the registry and neither of the following keys contain the oldname
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters\OptionalNames   
    or   
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerName\ComputerName
    This is puzzling. Does anyone know how to remove OLDNAME from the systems netbios identity?
    Or even any way to progress our diagnosis?

    Hello,
    I think the information on the cache needs to be cleared.
    Try this:
    Ipconfig /flushdns
    Ipconfig /registerDNS
    nbtstat /RR
    Hope this helps,

  • How do remove a song from nano when thsong was removd from the computer list

    How can I remove a song from the nano when the song wasremoved from the purchase list but didn't come off the nano

    It means no such thing. Your selection of songs to sync remains in iTunes regardless of what is currently on the device. After you delete the music from your device, connect it to iTunes, select it from devices:
    Then select the Music tab, uncheck the few songs you no longer want on the device and resync.

  • How to remove the header name in KM navigation iview

    Hi,
            I have an KM iview with linklistexplorer as layout.

    I want to remove this header "Name" from the iview.
    Can anyone help me on this.
    Raghu

    Hi Raghu,
    The layoutset you are referring to is using the collection renderer LinkListCollectionRenderer. This defines the properties to be rendered for each resource, which in the standard are
    "rnd:image,rnd:displayname(contentLink)"
    Change this to
    "rnd:image,rnd:displayname(contentLink/noTitle)".
    See http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/79/a1d23e6b2c3d67e10000000a114084/frameset.htm for an overview over these modifiers.

  • How to remove duplicate songs from Itunes

    I've consolidates my music in Itunes 11.01. Playlists are just getting crazy with duplicates.
    I want to eliminate duplicate music files, as well as eliminate the references in the interface.
    Then sync my new IPad.
    When I manually erase a duplicate in Windows Explorer, I'm left with a "!" indication in Itunes that the file cannot be found... duh.
    I want to find either an easier way to eliminate duplicates without Windows Explorer, or
    a way to select all the "!" references in Itunes interface and delete.
    Help please from a completely organized person who hates Apples "intelligence" at thinking it knows what I want, and not providing
    adequate help under "remove duplicates" in its help index.

  • How to remove duplicate template names in central admin - Sharepoint 2013

    Hi Guys,
    I can see some duplicate site templates in central admin (SharePoint 2013).
    How can i remove it? Please help me out on this.
    Regards,
    Krishna

    Hello,
    As there are many duplicate templates you could try below two steps.
    1) Find the templates :
    # Find the template name of SharePoint site using PowerShell
    $web = Get-SPweb <Site Url>
    Write-host “Web Template:”
    $web.WebTemplate ” | Web Template ID:”
    $web.WebTemplateId
    $web.Dispose()
    # To get a list of all web templates, use the following PowerShell code
    function Get-SPWebTemplateWithId
         $templates =
    Get-SPWebTemplate | Sort-Object "Name"
         $templates |
    ForEach-Object {
    $templateValues = @{
         "Title" =
    $_.Title
         "Name" =
    $_.Name
         "ID" =
    $_.ID
         "Custom" =
    $_.Custom
         "LocaleId" =
    $_.LocaleId
    New-Object PSObject -Property
    $templateValues | Select @("Name","Title","LocaleId","Custom","ID")
    Get-SPWebTemplateWithId | Format-Table
    2) Remove the ones you want to
    $templateTitle = "TitleOfTemplateToBeZapped"
      $site = Get-SPSite <Site coll url>
      $templates = $site.GetWebTemplates(1033)
    #lcid, 1033 = U.S.    $badTemplate
    = $templates | where { $_.Title
    -eq $templateTitle }
      if ($badTemplate
    -ne $null) {
        # the hidden feature Id is the first part of the template 
        #    name for custom web templates
        $id = $badTemplate.Name.substring(0,
    $badTemplate.Name.IndexOf("#"))
        $badId = [System.Guid]($id)
        $site.Features.Remove($badId)
        write-output "Template '$templateTitle' has been removed"
    } else {
        write-output "No template was found with the title of '$templateTitle'"
      $site.Dispose()

  • How to remove the account name from header when printing emails

    In outlook 2007 using Exchange Server 2007 users wishing to print an email using memo style have a header consisting of the account user's full name and a bold line under it, then the friendly email headers and body. Is there a way to remove/configure
    the memo style header?
    Marc

    Hi Marc,
    Unfortunately, there is no way in Outlook to change or remove the name or message header which is being displayed at the top of a printed message. It is tied to the Display Name of your email account which you can’t modify yourself for an Exchange account.
