Is there a way to merge or delete duplicate bookmarks?

I imported bookmarks and now I have duplicates. Is there a quick and easy way to merge or delete duplicate bookmarks, like there is with Contacts?

Open the Bookmarks section of your browser and delete the ones you do not need or want. I know of no macro commands that one can use to delete them.
Ciao.

Just starting to use aperture. is there a way to find and delete duplicate pix?

I'm working on a huge project and there are duplicates here and there. Is there a way to delete all duplicates from projects--or at least an easier way to do it then 1 by 1?

Aperture has no built-in tools to detect duplicates. There are some nice tools to detect duplicates in iPhoto libraries, so if you treat your Aperture library as an iPhoto library, you might give these applications a try: see the post by Old Toad:

During sync, new contacts on my iphone are deleted. The option in iTunes to replace contacts on my iphone is not selected. Is there a way to merge info on sync instead of replace?

During sync, new contacts on my iphone are deleted. I'll typically add any new contacts I get directly to my iphone, simply because I don't have my mac on me at all times. However, unless I specifically add the contact to my mac address book, it will be deleted from my iphone contacts upon sync. The option in iTunes to replace contacts on my iphone is not selected. Is there a way to merge info on sync instead of replace?

Thank you for your reply. I realy have nothing else to sync - no music. Emails do work so its just my contacts I am concerned about. I'm kinda new at this but have a working understanding of the system.
I have an icloud account but the Geek Squad went there and tried but could not export contacts. I truly am not that good re icloud. They worked exclusively with my itunes, re-downloading, etc - all of the stuff in their book.
I have not tried a complete restore because I am not sure I am that good with the equipment but could. I did all of the stuff on the help page - sync reset, forced one-way sync etc but the phone just does not seem to recognize the sync. I have not gone to an Apple store to have them have a look - that may be my next step to hook up to another itunes computer. It seems simple to me - it was working fine until maybe 3 months ago - probably when there was an update. Its telling to me that the phone does not tell me there is a sync in process while itunes is saying there is - its just not biting between the 2.
I appreciate any hep - and I said, I not stupidi about these things but have kind of reached as far as I am comfortable with fear of doing something really wrong.

I recently purchased a 4S. I now have 2 files in my iCloud both with my name. One from my 3gs and one from my 4S. The problem is the data history of all my games and 3rd party apps did not transfer over to my 4S. Is there a way to merge the two in icloud?

I backed up my 3gs to the iCloud and when I synced my 4S, it did not transfer my game histories or my 3rd party app histories. When I look at my iCloud storage, it shows both phones under the same name. Is there a way to merge them together in iCloud? I tried adding the account to my 4S but since they are both named the same, it says I already have that account added! Help!!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming you have finished with your old backup.....
You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > backup & storage > manage......

HT204053 Is there a way of merging two AppleIDs?

Obviously a beginners mistake, but I have created a second AppleID instead of changing the email address of the first one. And now I have purchases in itunes from both accounts. Is there a way to merge the two accounts?
Thanks in advance for any tips.
Cheers,
Raf

It's not currently possible to merge accounts, nor to transfer content from one account to another account. If any of the downloads on the second account were free then you could delete them and download them via the first account, otherwise content is tied to the account that downloaded it

Is there a way to "merge" duplicate songs in iTunes 11?

Turns out I have numerous duplicate songs in iTunes (which has been problematic for iCloud). I'm only finding one way to handle them: delete them manually. However, if I do this, it also deletes the song from any Playlist the song's in.
Is there a way to "merge" any dupes, so that my Playlists will remain intact?
Thanks.

Here's a way to do what you're trying to do:
Control-click on one of the duplicate songs. Scroll down and look under "Add to Playlist". There may be a "Show in Playlist" entry there. If there is, that song is in at least one playlist (which you can see by clicking the right arrow). If there is no "Show in Playlist" entry, that song is not in a playlist.

Help! Is there a way to merge accounts on a MacBook Pro or share files?

After migrating from my old Powerbook G4 with 1 user account, to my new MacBook Pro, which started out with one account when I began the migration, Now I've got 3 user accounts on the new MacBook Pro. I'd like to have just one. Is there a way to merge them? I used the migration assistant. I can't recall the exact message, but the migration assistant required that I set up two different usernames in the process of moving my files to the new computer. I'm wanting to sync my iphone with ical and contacts especially, but certainly don't want to make a mistake and lose it all! Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

I need all my music and photos, huge collections. I have tried to use the migrated accounts, but would like the iCal and contacts to sync, and am nervous about losing all the work I've put into those 2 applications when it overwrites or merges. The sync function isn't allowing me to choose to sync via mobile me for some reason. This would have been easier of course when the computer was brand new, before I'd used the computer at all.
there is definitely no way to merge accounts automatically. just copy what you need from two extra accounts to the main account you want to use. You can then delete the other accounts if you want. I don't really understand what your problem is anyway. why don't you just use the migrated account? it should have all your user info. what is it exactly that you need from the other two accounts?

I have an iphone and my daughter has an ipod. She has all my contacts showing up on her ipod. I deleted them and now they are gone from both. is there any way of retreiving this deleted information.

When you share an iCloud account, any data you sync with the account is merged, and any actions you take on one device (such as deleteing contacts) is synced to all other devices sharing the account. To avoid this, each person's device(s) should have a separate iCloud account with a separate ID. (You can continue to share your iTunes account; it does not need to have the same ID as the one used for iCloud.)
To create separate icloud accounts, decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account. On the one that will be changing accounts, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting the other person's contacts from your account, and vice versa).
As for recovering the deleted contacts, you can try restoring her phone from her most recent backup. This may recover the contacts, however it often doesn't. Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process. If she have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that she wants to save she will need to do that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup. Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

Is there any way to merge 2 video layers to one without exporting?

Is there any way to merge 2 video layers into one without exporting as a new QuickTime movie? I have tried opening a blank player to copy and paste into, but it always forces it to be layered, even when I change the layer numbers both to zero. I tried extracting the video layers and omitting the audio tracks. Then I saved it as a new self contained movie. I am trying to burn the video to dvd with Roxio Easy Media Creator 9's MyDVD on WIndows XP, but I am also using a MacBook with QuickTime Pro. MyDVD will only recognize one video and audio layer at a time, hence, the other layers get skipped. There should be an easy way to merge two video layers without having to export it as a new movie, which takes 2 hours for this 2 hour TV show. Thanks for any answers.

Is there a way that I can delete songs off my computer but they will still stay in the cloud for my iPad and iPhone?

My family has two computers, two iPads, and an iPhone. My wife has different tastes in music than I do and purchases wayyyyy too much music that I consider "noise". Additionally, she has well over 400 playlists. I don't want to have to see all the playlists on my computer but occasionally she will create one for me on her computer. I thought the iCloud was going to be the answer to our problems.
But now, every playlist on her computer shows up on mine, and every song on her computer shows up on mine. Is there a way I can delete some of the songs from my computer (and some of the playlists) without it removing the songs/playlists from the cloud?
Thanks in advance for any answers.

Sir Churchill, I tried deleting one of the playlists from my computer (Playlist 130). The next day I checked my wife's computer and noticed that Playlist 130 was now missing from her computer as well. Is there a way that I can delete a playlist from my computer without it disappearing from hers as well?

Is there a way of merging movies in iTunes?

IS there a way of merging a set of clips in iTunes?

Drag your clips out of iTunes and then open the first one up in Quicktime. From there you can drag the next clip, and then the next, in. When you've added your clips, you can export the finished product out, and then throw it back into iTunes. You could also do this in iMovie, but Quicktime is, strangely, quicker.

Is there a way of "merging" songs in iTunes. Several times, I have downloaded from the Internet, or recorded from CDs, then found the tracks broken up to appear as separate "Albums". I have a 5-movement symphony, which appears as 5 separate songs?

Try posting in a more appropriate forum, as this has noting to do with itunes U - the place where University/college/museums post education material.

Is there a way to merge Mail account A on my desktop with Mail account A on a separate hard disk? I lost all my old messages in July, but they are on the hard disk. Thanks!

Is there a way to merge Mail account A on my desktop with Mail account A from separate hard disks? I lost all my old messages (thousands of them) in July, but most of them are safe elsewhere. I'd really like to put them all in one place, though!
The desktop (iMac) now has messages from July 2012 onward.
My separate hard disk backup has old messages up to June 2012.
Most of the ones between June and July are on a MacBook Pro which I bought about that time.
Is there a relatively easy and safe way to put these messages back together in Mail account A on my desktop again?
Many thanks!

Well, your profile info says 10.4.11, and you are posting your question in the iMac (PPC) category. If you are running Snow Leopard, it must be a fairly recent Intel iMac.
In that case, you should definitely post your question here
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.6_snow_leopard
where other Snow Leopard users can see your question. Restate the problem, what error messages you get, and what you have tried already (for trouble-shooting).

HT1918 Is there a way to merge multiple itunes accounts? My original itunes account (for my 1st gen ipod touch) has all of my purchases but it is not compatible with the icloud account.

I had an ipod before the icloud was introduced. All of my apps and music were purchased using this account. In order to use icloud services, a me.com had to be created. My purchases and apps are in the original account and my email, contacts, calendar and notes are in the new account. Is there a way to merge them?

You cannot merge accounts.
