ITunes doesn't seem to know how to count, multiple references for same mp3
Have had several MP3 players, but just got my first ipod.
I have 5899 mp3 files under the My Music directory stucture.
The two other programs I use to manage my music (Rio Music Manager, and Media Monkey) both see 5899 songs and one copy of each file.
Also a directory from the CMD prompt verifies 5899 mp3 files.. totalling about 24GB
When iTunes scans the same directory it shows 10,352 songs or a total of 38.79GB.
I should be able to put my entire collection on the 30GB video ipod, but because of what itunes is doing, they do not fit.
I see most all songs with 2-3 references in the library. I have to uncheck 2 of the three to have iTunes only send one copy to the player..
I have uninstalled iTunes twice and it does the same thing every time..
Love the ipod, but iTunes needs help..
Any ideas?
TIA,

actually think I found my own answer. I have 5 M3U playlists under the directory structure. Synch lists and playlists for my other players..
I moved them out, then cleared the itunes database, rescanned the directories and only 5899 songs came in..
Any way to bring my m3u lists in without the dupication?

How to avoid multiple listing for same artist?
How to avoid multiple listing for same artist?
Sounds like there might be blanks in the artist name.
For instance "Lou Reed" and "Lou Reed_" will not match.
(Pretend the underscore _ is a blank).
Select all the Lou Reed songs, Get Info, and type "Lou Reed" in the artist field. That should fix it. -

I am unable to recover my purchased ringtones from the itunes store. Does anyone know how to do this?
My account's balance shows at the top left of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option. If yours doesn't show (you've tried logging out and back into your account to see if it then shows ?), and you didn't have any pre-orders or auto-renewing subscriptions that might have used it, then you could try contacting iTunes support and see if they can help : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I tried to launch iCloud on iMac. I Changed my e-mail address recently, and iMac doesn't seem to know it. Even worse, it doesn't know any password I've used with Apple ID. Can anyone help me?
No, i don't. if i did i would have tried it. do you have to sign up an appled ID for iCloud? If the answer is yes then they should mention that in the set-up instructions.

Can anyone help me? my ipod touch says it is connected to wifi, but it won't run anything that uses wifi like safari or itunes, and I don't know how to fix it
You didn't indicate if it ever worked. If it NEVER did, the problem could be caused by a firewall in the router. For reasons that I do not understand, that will affect IOS (iPod/iPad) communication but will not affect computers or other devices.
You will need administrative access to the router. If a firewall is present, turn it off and test the iPod again. If it works, turn the firewall back on but weaken it a notch and test the iPod again. Repeat as required. -

Re: Cannot import movies in iTunes 11

Try this. Start up Itunes. Click on Home Movies Videos in the movies section. If you have a movie her, right button click and select "Get Info". On the options tab, change the media kind to movie and select OK. Your other movies will slowly start to appear! -
