HT2905 The function to show music duplicates doesnt appear on my ITUNES version 11.0.2.26

I have many music files duplicates and I want to delete these files to organize correctly my library. The ITunes Help tells about a function that doesnt appear in my version, which is "File>Display Exact Duplicates".
And, further more, are there other options to do that? For instance, may I reload an entire library, and configure Itunes to use only that new one library?
Thank you all.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Note with iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show all your purchases with cloud icons that allow them to be streamed or downloaded from Apple's servers.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
If, for some inexplicable reason, the media has been removed from your computer see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

You do not tell us what OS version you have. In OS 10.8.2, do this:
Apple Menu / System Preferences / Language and Text / Input Sources.
Select the language you want. Mine is set to Canadian English.

one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working . May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

If I use the function to align adjacent fields, or the function to match size, duplicate fields are created. How can I get this to stop?

I have a form that consists of columns and rows of fillable fields. When I use the edit function to make the height of the fields the same, or make the widths of the different columns of fields the same, or align the fields vertically or horizontally, duplicate fields are created. If these fields have a box around them, all of the duplicate fields' boxes are shown. The field names have the same base name, but have a suffix that is sequentially numbered. If I delete the "lower" numbered suffix names (with the same base name), the resulting field does not appear on the form.
What is going on with the alignment or size process. I do use the CTRL-Click function to select the group of fields I am trying to size or align. If using the selection of multiple fields should be done differently, how can it be done?

No. That's not what's happening. The duplicate fields are ONLY created after I employ the alignment or sizing functions. Weird.
I was hoping that this was the result of some kind of setting in Acrobat, or that the duplicate fields would disappear when saving the form, but that's not what happened.
Thanks for your input, however.

Iphone seems to be working but only shows apple logo, itunes sees the phone normally, when i restored it appeared successful and itunes tried activating my phone but the screen only shows apple logo nothing else???

my iphone is detected in itunes as normal, but screen on the phone only shows apple logo??? restored and everything but no difference its weird, it restores successfully and stuff but once done the screen only shows apple logo.. note:while restoring everything goes through as normal on the phone it shows the bar loading etc.. but once complete just stays on apple logo.

It can take a few minutes to reinitialize, but if it stays on the Apple logo for as much as 10 minutes there is something seriously wrong. Try restoring again, and set up as a new phone rather than installing your backup. If this fixes it you have a corrupt backup. If this doesn't fix it the phone is broken. Or possibly jailbroken.

Why can't I see the flash slide show on my own website since installing newest version?

Since installing the newest version of flash player on my computer a few days ago (version 11.5?), I can't see the old slide show on my own website. I know it is still there because a friend running XP can see it. I am running Win7 Pro with IE 9 in 32-bit mode. Also won't work in Google Chrome or IE 64-bit. I could see the slide show with the old version of the flash player.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

What is the function of show tab bar in safari setting?

this tool is in setting > safari > show tab bar on/off
any one know how it work

Hey Samooo205,
I see that you have some questions about the tab bar in Safari. Some information about this can be found in the following article:
Safari 7 (Mavericks): Customize the Safari window
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH17153
If you need help visually identifying the tab bar, you can find that information here:
Safari 8 (Yosemite): View webpages in tabs
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19261
As it said in the first article, the tab bar option that you are wondering about only affects the behavior of the tab bar when there is only one tab open. If there are multiple tabs open, the tab bar will be shown, regardless of this setting. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

I recently burned 2 cds of music onto itunes, the first cd of music synced and appears on my 2nd gen ipod touch, the 2nd cd only appears in the itunes library and will not sync

Ipod not syncing
I tried to burn 2 cd's worth of music and two things happened:
1. 1st CD synced with my Ipod, but only as an album (touch 2nd gen) but, disappeared from itunes.
2. 2nd CD appears in my library but will now sync to my ipod
I have space left and am not at the 4GBgb limit.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have the same problem with my 2nd gen itouch.
I've tried other computer and my childrens iPods work on my computer so not a windows problem. I've tried reinstalling iTunes and resetting itouch as per apple support pages but nothing, it doesn't even show on my computer. Any help greatly appreciated :-)

ITunes says my iPhone 4 is updated, but I've got the old Bluetooth version and haven't got the new menues? Music that i've loaded to iTunes directly is not synced to the iPhone either, but the other way it syncs...

iTunes says that my iPhone is updated, and I've done all the updates, but I've still got an old Bluetooth version and not the new menues. If I download music to iTunes directly that music does not transfer to the iPhone when I sync it to iTunes, but music from the iPhone is copied to iTunes... Any one else who has experienced this and/or have a solution? I'm having big problems with using bluetooth handsfree and I've heard that got better with the new bluetoothversion.

Thank you for your answer, but no, I've got 7 GB free space...

The problem is when i'm playing farmville in facebook and i only have this question when using firefox.Sending,asking gifts or other things is not possible cuz i cant see the list of my friends.It doesnt appear on the page,nothing seems.

Why?Because with another sites this never happenes but firefox never openes.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

The title of a music won't appear in the browser window.

The song appears in iTunes, but it does not appear on the browser window in Aperture. The song title is a mixture of Japanese and English text and it was sampled from an original CD. The browser does list other songs that have only Japanese, only English, or a mixture of the two. Also, it's not other listing songs too. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Might need to "recreate" your iTunes library, read here.

And launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.

HT204291 airplay turned on but mirroring option doesnt appear

I have turned on the Apple TV option via Airplay but the toggle to turn on Mirroring doesnt appear in my Itunes on my computer. I have a 2nd generation Apple TV with up to date software and an IMAC computer version 10.7.4 with up to date software. Any help?

Yes, OK but - it seems to me that when a new software item is launched Apple has a history of singing the most exuberant praises to the latest capability they now have developed and only after demand has reached boiling-point do they, gradually, hint that you actually need to upgrade in order to take advantage of their new trinket. And - yes,... - well,, you know - you may have to, under certain circumstances, actually, in fact pay, you know...money... That strikes me as dishonest, and links up with a very basic corporate strategy. First you lure them onto the caroussel, then you charge them. ITunes, for instance, is not for listening to music but for buying stuff - from Apple! Air Play and Home sharing is very strategically developed and limited in order to enable people in the Windows camp to include Apple items in their setups, but never to make it feasible for Apple users to jump ship and go for Windows Media Center or Android phones.
Yes, Mirror was a key feature of Moubntain Lion. Less key was that it would not work with anything less.
The strange thing is that since I switched from Windows rto Apple a few months ago I find myself at every turn a little more disillusioned by Apple and a little less inclined to act from any form of loyalty or trust - rather than what I expected, more and more confidence in the new environment where everyting is taken care of and solutions are part and parcel of this excellent colour-coordinated universe.
And yes, I could buy Air Parrot, I guess, and it might work. But then again it might not. And at the next juncture I'd find myself having to make the choice again - paying to stay abreast of new developments and media or standing my ground and patching up my trusted set-up with another piece of gum...and another...and another...
The price of Mountain lion is higher, but not that much higher, and I have to trust(?) that after that upgrade everything will work. If not I'll just have to look around for another...isn@t there something called Leopard?

When I delete duplicates how do I know which version is the original song and which is the duplicate?

I have recently transfered all my music to a new computer and duplicates have appeared in my itunes. I have chosen to 'show exact duplicates' so that it is easier for me to delete, but I can't work out which version of the song I need to delete. (When I click to delete on the top version a box appears stating 'move to recycle bin', but when I click on the second version the box which appears just says 'delete file from itunes.')
Also - does any one know where these duplicates have emerged from?!?
I hope I have given enough info. I would be super grateful if someone could shed some light on this!
Thanks.

Apple's official advice on duplicates 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 and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.
