    You don't say whether you are on PC or Mac. For Mac there are these two programs which might help (I havn't tried either) :

    There are probably similar programs for PCs, but I don't know what they are. On a PC you can hold the shift key and do File > Display Exact Duplicates (without the shift they may not be exact matches) - if one of each duplicate pair has the same date added then you can sort by that and then delete those with (or without) that date.

  • I just got a new iPhone and have reset my iCloud password 3 times on my computer but each time i try to enter on my new phone it does not recognize.

  • I just got an iphone 5 and have two issues:

    I just got an iphone 5 and have two issues:
    1) trying to set it up with the handsfree bluetooth builtin to my Prius.  My previous iphone 4 had no problems.  I go through the steps to pair it, my boothtooth is enables in the phone, the car gives me a 4 digit code and then searches but it looks like my phone doesn't pick it up.  Eventually, the car gives up searching.
    2) I had to enter a passcode when I was setting up my phone.  I didn't realize what it was asking at the time and I now want to change my password.  I have tried but it isn't letting me change it.  How do I cnage the password for my phone?  This is the password that is requested when my phone isn't used for a period of time (2 minutes). 

    1) Try turning on the Bluetooth on your iPhone around the time the car gives you the 4 digit code.
    2) Check Settings > General > Passcode Lock to change the code.

  • I have pluged a portable battery to the USB and my macbook pro stopped working after that, right before it shut down there was a message on the screen that said something like " USB device is withdrawing so much power, please disconnect and connect again?

    I have plugged a portable battery to the USB and my macbook pro stopped working after that, right before it shut down there was a message on the screen that said something like " USB device is withdrawing so much power, please disconnect and connect again?
    if the device I connected have caused this, shouldn't the macbook itself have some type of protection that should prevent this from happening.
    because when I took it to an apple certified maintenance shop, the guy said that now it could only run while connected to the power. it won't run on batteries. and that I have to change the motherboard.
    can I just replace the damaged part only, would apple consider this as a design issue and they could pay for it, or should I just buy a new motherboard for 800$.
    Help.

    BB1B2,
    The problem is in finding a tech shop that will/can do board level repairs on Macs. They are few. And I certainly wouldn't spend $800 on a new logic board - I would replace the computer if I had to pay that much!
    You could call around to a few repair shops and see if they feel competent to isolate the problem and do a board level repair - but I'm afraid, in the end, that your search will be futile.
    Sorry,
    Clinton

  • I just got an iPod touch.  Now I cannot access my music on my Nano when it is connected to my computer (all the titles are in gray).  How do I fix this?

    I just got an iPod touch.  Now I cannot access my music on my Nano when it is connected to my computer (all the titles are in gray).  How do I fix this?

    That sounds like you've engaged one of the automatic syncing options for your nano.
    Plug the nano in, and go into the Device screen for the nano in itunes. Is "manually manage ..." unchecked? If so, check the box for it, and click okay. Disconnect and reconnect the nano. Is the content on the nano able to be selected in your iTunes now?

  • Just got to South Africa and have no service although I purchased an add on?

    When I got to South Africa and realised I didn't have any service, I purchased a roaming '30 mins anywhere non EU' add on. However I still don't have service?
    Please can someone help!
    Thanks so much in advance!

    Buying a bundle doesn't mean that your device will work aborad you need to make sure roaming is enabled on your account.
    If you have a EE extra plan you still need to make sure roaming is enable on your account your plan only gives you free/cheaper calls when abroad.
    If your wanting to enable roaming on your account there could be a deposit to pay if you haven't had the device for about 6 months.
    Unless you have paid the deposit then roaming is not enabled on your account.
    You need to activate roaming on your account by calling 150 from your device or from a landline 01707 315000 before you leave the UK.
    But you still might be able todo this if you are abroad.
    From the home page of your account go to "Plan and add-ons>Manage this device>>Usage Controls> and select Allow on call abroad and premium rate, If the option is not there you need to call
    It can take 24 hours to activate
    If you had this device/contract for under 6 months you need to call customer services on +44 7953 966250 from a landline.
    Once you have activated roaming you can then use this link to see what cost there is and what bundles you can have.

    Please read this about voicemail

    And this
    http://ee.co.uk/articles/set-up-your-phone-for-using-abroad
    Also sending a text to 150 with the words of RO country your going to i.e. RO Spain will get you a reply of what the costs will be from that country.

  • Apple TV and my MacBook Pro. TV shows I bought from iTunes only play for 1:50 min on Apple TV. However, the same shows play full length from my iPad. What's the cause?

    The TV series that I purchased from iTunes and have on my MacBook Pro will play on Apple TV for a short 2 minutes and then everything ends. However, the same shows play full length on Apple TV if I use my iPan. Does anyone know the cause of this?

    Hi mdr1976,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You can use iTunes Match to access your entire iTunes library on your computer and iOS devices.
    You can access your iTunes library on your Apple TV using Home Sharing, which is why it only works when your MacBook is turned on.
    See these articles for more information about Home Sharing:

  • Just plugged in Time Capsule and one MacBook Pro works fine on WiFi while the other MacBook Pro and iPad 3 keep disconnecting. Any ideas?

    Additionally, the wifi icon at the top of the screen has an exclamation mark on the MacBook Pro that doesn't connect. We've tried restarting the machine, the Time Capsule but nothing has helped.

    Just called Apple Support and it turns out we had the settings wrong. We're all set now!

  • I just got a virus on my new MacBook Pro I used to get on my PC!

    This is my first Mac, and I am freaking out. I was just browsing the internet with Safari, and all of a sudden I had a popup that said, "Your PC is running slower than normal. You need to scan for viruses!" I tried just closing it, but it just kept popping up more and more. I eventually had to force quit Safari.
    What do I need to do to get rid of this thing??? PLEASE HELP!!

    I think you are freaking out a little. The pop-ups are probably just advertising and wants you to click somewhere so they can sell something. Ignore them. Don't visit that page again.
    If your computer seems sluggish it might be the worldwide Internet that is sluggish somewhere. It happens to me too. It was very pronounced during the Olympic Games. It is also a bit of a problem when America wakes up and I want to access an american site! It usually resolves it self if one has a little patience.
