How to remove duplicate addresses from address book
My mac os x address book ( the one after clicking on "WRITE) shows a number of contacts several times and I can't delete the extra ones. When I right click them and hit delete and confirm, they just stay there highlighted.
I don't have a Mac and I've never used one, so this is somewhat hearsay.
For a long time, the Mac address book was read-only in Thunderbird. So to manage it, you'd have to access it via whatever tools OSX offers you for this.
ISTR that in a recent Thunderbird, this might have been fixed, so it is possible that it should now be able to edit and delete OSX address book entries from within Thunderbird.
Another possibility is that Thunderbird's own address book is corrupted. The usual symptom is that users can edit their Contacts, but when Thunderbird is closed and restarted, it reverts to the state it was in prior to the editing. That is, the changes weren't written to disk. I'm not confident this applies to you, as you don't seem able to make ''any'' changes.
As a check, if you drag a Contact from the OSX address book to one of Thunderbird's native address books, are you then able to edit the copy? (If you hold down control {command?} while dragging, it should make a copy. If it doesn't have write permission on the OSX address book, it will copy regardless, since it isn't permitted to delete the original in the OSX address book.)
One way to fix a corrupt address book is to export it and import to a new address book. Ideally you would also close Thunderbird, locate the broken address book file in Thunderbird's profile and delete it.
There is some advice [http://chrisramsden.vfast.co.uk/11_Thunderbird_Settings_and_the_Profile.html here] about exporting and importing address books.

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.

Remove duplicate Address Book emails
I'm trying to write a script that walks through the currently selected Address Book entries, checks for duplicate email addresses, and removes any duplicates that it finds. Here's what I came up with:
<pre>tell application "Address Book"
set the_selection to selection
repeat with this_person in the_selection
set unique_emails to {}
set duplicate_emails to {}
repeat with this_email in every email of this_person
if the value of this_email is in unique_emails then
copy the contents of this_email to the end of duplicate_emails
else
copy the value of this_email to the end of unique_emails
end if
end repeat
repeat with this_email in duplicate_emails
remove this_email from this_person's emails
end repeat
end repeat
end tell</pre>
It seems like this should work, but when I try to run it, I get:
<pre>Address Book got an error: NSReceiversCantHandleCommandScriptError</pre>
I believe the first repeat clause is correct; the error comes in the call to remove. I just can't figure out how to remove the emails listed in duplicate_emails from Address Book. Any suggestions? TIA
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)Yes, that's because of the emails is reduced by one -every time- after the script encounters the second address. On the third encounter the index for this email address is 3, but the actual index of it is 2 -because the second one got deleted, is that make sense?
Yes, I'm just surprised that this is necessary. In some other programming languages (such as Java's collections API), keeping track of indices is not necessary because you can delete an element on the fly and the iterator object will adjust itself accordingly.
Anyway, even though the second repeat loop is not strictly necessary, I'd rather do that than have to deal with index-based loops. The second loop approach is easier to read and understand, I think.
I've posted the final version of the script here: http://vocaro.com/trevor/software/applescript/
Thank you for your help; I appreciate it!

Can I use Mackeeper to remove duplicate address book entries?

I suggest if you have MacKeeper install, that your first move be to uninstall it.

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 dark areas from scanned book PDFs?
Hello,
When scanning chapters from a book, I get large dark areas where the scanner picks up 'dead space' from the spine and around the perimeter of the book. I have been able to remove these using the 'Redaction' tool but when I go to save the PDF the size of the file at least doubles in size. Is there a better way to remove dark areas and, if not, is there a way to reduce the size of the PDF without reducing the quality of the text?
Thanks.Thanks Bill@VT.
I have been able to remove the dark areas using the redaction tool but when I go to save all my files are at least twice their original size.

How to remove duplicate entries from Settings General iTunes Wi-Fi Sync?

I am running iOS 7.0.4, and OS X 10.9.1, iTunes 11.1.3 on the Mac.iPhone 3G doesn't support Wi-Fi sync or IOS 5.1.1. You have to connect to iTunes using the dock connector to sync.

How to remove duplicate messages from Mail in Mavericks (POP)
Hello
I'm having some significant problems with Apple Mail, and despite having researched widely, I haven't been able to find a solution yet. Here is my tale of woe...
My set up is that I use Mail with 5 separate accounts, downloading all messages using POP. I keep all my mail so that I have a permanent record of all conversations, going back more than 10 years - this is about 250,000 emails. I'm running the latest version of Mavericks on a 2010 MBP. I have no intention of moving to IMAP - I need to keep a local archive of all my mail.
A few months ago I was having problems with Mail being very slow to load and search emails. I decided to rebuild the mailboxes, but afterwards discovered that thousands of messages in the inbox of one of my accounts (and some of the sub-folders) had disappeared. Once I realised I tried to go back to a recent Time Machine back up, but, for whatever reason, that part of the back up hadn't worked properly and I was unable to recover the previous status. Ileft it while I decided what to do, and had time to deal with it.
The last 2 years worth of emails on that account were still archived on gmail, so last week I decided to try redownloading the whole lot (something like 72,000 messages), and then uplanned to use one of the scripts I was aware of to remove the duplicates to the trash, and then remove any duplicates in the trash forever. That ought to mean I at least had an archive of the last two years of missing messages, even if I had no record of which ones had been flagged or replied to, etc.
The downloading took about 24 hours to complete, and I now have almost 70,000 messages in the inbox of that account. However, I hadn't figured on two things:
1. Mail 'hides' duplicate messages, meaning that all of the messages I've downloaded are showing as unread, and I can't differentiate the ones I already had in my Inbox, and the new downloads. When I click on those apparently unread messages I can see if they have been replied to or forwarded, etc, but there's no obvious way for me to remove the ones I have already dealt with to the trash, without going through them all manually, which is clearly impossible.
2. The scripts I'd found for removing duplicates don't work. Andreas Amann's Remove Duplicates script doesn't work under Mavericks, and he has abandoned the project. I've also tried the remove-duplicate-messages.scpt made by Jolly Roger (http://jollyroger.kicks-***.org/software/), and while it *sometimes* works on individual subfolders on my Mac (but as far as I can tell removes the duplicate in that folder, rather than the newly downloaded version), mostly it doesn't work at all - it creates a 'Remove Duplicate Messages' folder on my desktop, a log inside it and a folder for removed messages, but nothing appears in the duplicates folder.
So, I'm left in a position where I have 70,000 apparently unread messages in my Inbox, a massively bloated Mail library (which has pretty much doubled in size), a slow and unresponsive Mail program. I figure I have a number of options. Either I could abandon the last week's efforts and revert to the version ofApologies, this was posted here in error.

How to remove duplicate friends from games in game center lists
In one of my Games it lists multiple duplications of friends for that specific game. How do you delete these extra "listings" for these people. I dont really want have to delete them altogether and go through the process of reinviting.
I've tried signing out and back in again. It doesn't do anything. I still get the unnecesarily long list of duplicate phone numbers and have 2 or 3 of them randomly tick marked. I've tried this multiple times, it doesn't get rid of them at all. As far as I'm concerned, my friends do receive my iMessage from my number rather than my email. I just find it a nuisance to have such a long list of my phone number 25 times over. I don't think it affects anything though, but any way to get rid of them would be great.
Also, it's been 3 days and it still says "waiting for activation" on my iMessage and Facetime settings. How long does this take? As far as I know, my friends have told me iMessaging with me is flawless but I'm confused as to why it's still trying to activate. -

How to Remove duplicate entries in address book
After syncing with iCloud (three computers and a phone) suddenly I am seeing multiple entries for the same contact in the address book and multiple entries in the calendars for the same event. Can anyone suggest how to stop this and how to delete the multiple entries without having to manually delete each item? The new Address book does noit seem to have a list view that shows the entire address book 9only shows addresses with two or three alphabets...
Is there a setting to prevent this from happening? I had similar experiences with the old Mobile.me and was hoping the problem had been fixed.
The value of iCloud is lessened when these issues crop up and there seems to be no defined method to fix the problem. I see numerous entries on the Support Community boards with the same problem.
Any suggestions? Thank you.Hi,
Take a look at Address Book Account Basics (with iCloud). and Duplicate address Book entries.
I too had the same issue and this helped solve it.
Hope this helps.
