HT2905 What if they were all added at exactly the same time?

I imported music from my old laptop, and now there are duplicates and triplicates of most of the songs in my library. They were all added at the same time though, so I cannot simply delete the older ones. Is there any quick way to get rid of extra copies of songs? Deleting them one by one would take a whole day.

I've written a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates. See this  thread for background.

  • I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though, itunes automatically putting books on my idevices

    I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though I did not want this. I added them to itunes using add to library and I have both devices set to sync only selected books.
    How do I do this in the future so this doesnt happen? Its a lot of work to now manually erase them from each device and it sent my phone over capacity.
    thanks

    I dont see the difference in the posts. I dont think theres anything inaccurate or misleading about what I wrote. The items were immediately added to my ipad and my iphone, even though I have them both set to sync only select items. As soon as I added new titles to my itunes library, they were immediately added to the devices. Not on the next sync. Immediately. Both devices were plugged into the computer at the time. Sorry if I failed to mention they were plugged in but I dont see the signifigance youre making out of it. The problem persists anyway.
    Now that I did a test without the devices plugged in, the new items were still added as soon as I plugged my devices into the computer ( I do not have them set to sync over wifi).
    Since I have both devices set to manually select items to sync, of course I want to manually select new items to sync. For instance, I am not going to read any of these magazines or books on my phone, ever, and I dont want to waste valuable space with them.
    So I'm trying your advice:
    I just tried deselecting sync books. It erased all content from ibooks on my device. I then dragged
    one title onto the device, and it just goes back to syncing select books, with the one title selected.
    It appears that wont work to solve my issue. The next time I add something to itunes it will be put on my phone. Is this really something most people want? To select to manualy control what content is synced, but then have things automatically added. It seems inconsistent to me.

  • How do I delete duplicate songs in my iTunes? I have hundreds and I don't want to delete them one by one. They were all added on the same date, so sorting by the date won't help.

    How do I delete duplicate songs in my iTunes? I have hundreds and I don't want to delete them one by one. They were all added on the same date, so sorting by the date won't help.

    Hi, if this is in regards to your library simply open up itunes and do the following steps:
    Click File
    Scroll down to "show duplicates"
    A list will then appear of your duplicate song titles.
    Be sure to CAREFULLY review each song to make sure it is a duplicate ( as I have some music that is the same song but live, acoustic etc...)
    Proceed to manually delete each song from the list and leave alone any song that you wish to keep.
    Best of luck,

  • I have a small production client looking to run 1 workstation running Mac Lion 10.7.3 and two work stations running Windows7 64 bit. They will all be talking to the same storage array through 8Gb FC. What is there most cost effective way to do this?

    I have a small production client looking to run 1 workstation running Mac Lion 10.7.3 and two work stations running Windows7 64 bit. They will all be talking to the same storage array through 8Gb FC. What is there most cost effective way to do this?

    Thank you for your help.
    The client has already made the jump to 8Gb including HBA's, switch and RAID Storage.
    The other question will be if they need a seperate Mac Server to run the Meta Data or are they able to use the current Mac they are running to do this?
    The Mac is a 201073 model they say with 12 Dual Core 2.66Mhz processors and 16 GB of Memory. This system is currently doing rendering. It has the XSAN Client but I understand for the solution to work they need to also run XSAN Server on a MDC.

  • How do I apply the blur filter to all my layers at the same time?

    Hi I'm working on a background for a web page and I want to try how different filters are going to affect all the layers. Is it possible to apply a filter to all the layers without flattening the file first? Thanks very much,
    Cathy

    Thanks very much , that's really helpful,Cathy

    Hello!
    There is no need to flatten the file, but you can create a layer that merges all the content of the image, and apply the filter on that layer.
    Target the topmost layer, by holding the Option and . (period) keys, then create a merged copy by holding down Command Shift Option E.

  • Microphone and what U hear can not be use at the same time at the same time

    I am using Creative SB X-fi Xtreme Gamer (Creative Model Number: SB073A), sound card and have down loaded the latest drivers (version 2.18.15). What U hear is enabled, which in turned makes the microphone unavailable. If you reverse the settings, then what U hear is unavailable.
    It appears that; microphone and "What U Hear" can't be enabled at the same time. If someone has an answer on how to correct the following settings to achieve; using the microphone and what U hear at the same time would be appreciated.

  • What happened when multiple audio players start at the same time?

    Hi,everyone!
    I am developing a game, using JMF to play sound.
    These sound are stored in mp3 files.
    In order to decode mp3 files, I installed JMF and mp3-plugin( jmf-2_1_1e-windows-i586.exe , javamp3-1_0.exe).
    In the Game, a background music play back repeatly.When EndOfMediaEvent happened, I setMediaTime(new Time(0)) and then start().It works well.
    There are several sound-effects,may start at any time,
    so 2 or more sounds may play back at the same time,
    and then Strange things happened.
    Those sound-effects, usually short, can not play back inextenso.
    They lose some beginning part, the length of the part is not constant.
    i.e. Audio should start at MediaTime 0, but now they start at MediaTime x, x >= 0,
    not only that, sometimes, Audio process bar runs, but no sound heared.
    I do not know what is happening.
    So please help me, thanks a lot.
    The way that I use Players:
    initialize:
    create realized players from mp3 files
    prefetch them
    finalize:
    deallocate not null players
    then close them
    using:
    player.setMediaTime(new Time(0))
    then player.start()
    My Environment:
    Windows XP, java 1.4.10, JMF2.1.1, MP3-plugin1.0

    This is very strange, difficult to guess the cause... never had such an issue. Normally when the object to which the audio is attached disappears the audio stops. So in your case going to a next slide should stop the audio of the previous slide. Same with object audio.
    Do you have the different audio clips (one per slide) in the Library? Could you try to delete the audio on the slide and drag it again from the Library to see if you have the same result? And what happens when you attach the audio clip to an object on the slide (you can create a totally transparent rectangle with no stroke that will not be visible to attach the audio).

  • Release all compound paths at the same time?

    Platform: PC/Windows XP SP2
    Adobe: Illustrator CS3 (13.0.2)
    Is it possible to release all compound paths in an illustration at the same time (and if so - how)?
    I receive drawings from engineering in either PDF or CGM format, which I edit in Illustrator and save as AI. I have to release compound paths in order to delete specific parts of the drawing.
    This isn't difficult, but it is very time-consuming because the CGM(or PDF)-to-Illustrator conversion results in quite a few compound paths.
    Thanks - I appreciate your help,
    Dan

    Are they all compound paths or are some of them compound shapes?
    Try release/expand compound shape?

  • How to download all color rules at the same time ??

    Hi! I created my swatches using adobe kuler, but I want to download all  color rules (analogous, monochromatic, etc..). Can I download it at the same time ?? Thanks!

    That's not possible in Kuler.
    You can download theme with whichever rule you have selected. For all rules, you need to create different themes and download each one individually.

  • My itunes shows songs i imported with existing composers as if they were by another composer with the same name

    I recently updated my ios. Songs i imported after the update, even though their composer and artists already exist, appears as songs with new composers and artists. I double checked that the names are identical (no spaces and other stupid mistakes). How can i mix the composers and artists?

    Flash does allow more than one frame - that is one of the foundations of working with it.  You can restrict yourself to using just one frame if you like, but it is not required and very often people use the timeline instead of keeping things in one place.
    I have no familiarity with Director, but what you just described sounds like designing using the timeline of Flash.  With Flash you can use the timeline in the fashion you just described where different pages occupy different frames of the timeline and you can navigate from one to another.  You are not stuck with one frame in Flash... you can create a new keyframe at any point along the timeline and add new/different content to it, while retaining a menu that exists across all pages (or not - it's your choice)..

  • How can I load multiple compositions, all to play at the same time? eg 3 slideshows

    Hi
    Hoping someone at adobe edge animate can help me with some custom code as I need to load 3 different compositions all onto the same webpage.
    I have been through the Bootstrapper instructions thoroughly and have tweaked the code to try to get it to do what I require but I still can't make this work.
    I have 2 slideshows one footer one banner and also a small logo animation.. all need to reload and loop continuously.
    So far I have managed to get all three up but they all interfere with each other and none are playing properly.
    This is an urgent job for a client so I would really apprecaite some help.
    Thanks.. !
    Alayna.

    hi alayna,
    its definitely possible - see this sample:
    http://salesdigital.com/multiedge/
    3 edge compositions in one html page
    just check the page source code - in the head tag - it's not as bad as you think..
    hope this helps!

  • How to display all validator messages at the same time?

    Hi Guys,
    I have a form with validators attached to a couple of my input boxes. I tried to write validators which are reusable in other parts of my app ie. social security number check etc. I also then customized the messages and it all works fine.
    But when I submit the form it displays the messages one at a time, in other words every validator is performed and if there was an error the form is rendered. I believe this is how it should behave and that's fine.
    But what if I want all validators to be performed when I submit the form?Then all messages are displayed at the top of the page and the user can make all his changes and try again. This makes more sense to me.
    So my question is whether there is a way to force the page to perform all validators when the page is submitted and then display all error messages in a h:messages tag?
    Cheers and thanks alot
    p.s. i know about and use the hidden input field validator hack which does all validations, but if I do it that way I duplicate the code which does the social security check for all applicable forms.

    Strange, I was under the impression that all validators were run by default. In my JSF apps, all the validators run and output their errors without any special confguration to make this happen.
    I wonder why yours are just running one at a time? Could you show some of your JSP code, and the hidden field validator code?

  • HT5525 I am ordering 27 seperate books for my class.  I am a teacher.  I dont want to have to pay the shipping cost for every book.  Is there any way I can pay one shipping cost and you can send me all th books at the same time?  Thank you.  Linda Gleichm

    I am a teacher and I am sending 27 books to be published.  I don't want to have to pay postage on each book.  Can you send them to me all at once and just charge me one postage fee.  I can't aford to pay for postage for each child in my classroom.  Thank you.
    Linda Gleichmann

    1 - we are users just like you - so not we can not do anything about bulk shipping
    2 - Apple printing policy is that only multiple copies of the same (identical) book can be ordered in one order with one shipping charge - if you are ordering 27 copies of the same book then there will be one shipping charge for the order - if there are different bookd then there will be a shipping charge for each different order
