Multiple versions of songs

I have an album which I had bought and ripped some time ago. I loaded it into the cloud and it was identified there. On my Mac the album in iTunes looks fine. However, when I replicated it to my iPhone the album was listed twice, once with all songs, once with only three of them, and without the cover. So I played around with the settings for compilation, album information etc, but without success. Then I downloaded the songs again on my iPhone with the Match functionality. Still no success.
Then I checked how the songs on my iPhone are displayed in iTunes and found that each song is there in 3 versions:
- 320 kBit/sec (I guess that's how I ripped it)
- 256 kBit/sec (VBR) - whatever that is
- 256kBit/sec, buy date today (those seem to be files I downloaded today on my iPhone)
How do I clean up this mess?! Thanks for your help!

Have same problem with up to 12 copies of songs. Apple told me must delete manually, thus I have now reduced 7,500 songs (1,800 originals) to 6,400. As was mentioned to me earlier, for same reason when I downloaded Itunes, due to reinstall of xp, it downloaded numerous times. Apple could not explain why happened, just luckly I guess

  • HT201616 Multiple versions of same song by different artists

    iTunes used to have a feature where you can view multiple versions of the same song by different artists. Is there still a way to do this without having to search through the entire iTunes store? That way takes forever and I have to sample tracks that are completely unrelated, but just happen to have the same title. Why in the world would the dumb iTunes geeks take this feature away. Someone please help. Thanks!

    Have not been in ITUNES Store in quite awhile but
    If it was a function, it would rely on the person or persons who authored the song to insure you did get the same lyrics so to speak.
    So, if you didn't know the artist you wanted - or the authors of the song - you would have to sample them until you hit the correct one.
    Itunes did grow over time - and if they did have cross reference by authors they may have removed it - on the other hand like searches may have worked because of a limited database at the time - it did seem to start adding songs based on searches that brought up nothing one time - and a month later there they were.
    ITUNES has over time added restrictions - for instance at some point - you had to allow this computer on Itunes in order to have itunes synchronize to an IPOD (I purchased about 6 songs on old mac - after migration synchronized fine until they stopped - finally mac allowed more than one device so I could add this one and synchronization started again).
    Here are latest restrictions with windows and Mac if you want to burn CD's of your itunes

  • Genius on 160GB Classic Plays Wrong Version of Song (Title & Artist Match)

    I have noticed a problem with Genius right out of the box with my 160 classic. The problem still exists after the latest software update for the device.
    If I select a song and start Genius it will sometimes play another version of that song instead of the selected one. For example I have a song by "Artist A" titled "Song A" on "Album A" it will sometimes play "Artist A", "Song A", from "Album B". I've narrowed it down to it always playing the one that comes from the first, alphabetically, album on which the track occurs. So if the song and artist match but there is a version of the song on "A Album", "B Album", and "C Album" it will always put the "A Album" version in the playlist and never use the "B Album" or "C Album" versions even when they are directly chosen.

    Have you reported this problem directly to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipod.html ? It's possible that they are either unaware of it's existence or that it is the designed behaviour which could perhaps benefit from being clarified in online support.
    Given, for example, the general (I presume intentional) inability of the iPod Classic firmware to discriminate between albums of the same title but different album artists, I would guess that the underlying logic for Genius may differ from what you or I might expect or assume at first glance. From your description it would seem that Genius is based on considering which artist/track name pairings fit together, ignoring the album information altogether in this context. As popular tracks are often released on many compilations and anthologies this would seem to have some merit. If Genuis thinks song Y fits well with song X it doesn't really matter which version of song Y it uses (assuming of course they are identical). With this in mind I would venture to suggest that EVERY track Genius selects is from the first album (alphabetcially) you possess that features the given song by the given artist. This aspect is only readily apparent if choose a different version as your initial song where you have multiple instances. If the songs are identical then I don't really see a problem, other than the mild surprise that what you pick isn't what you get, but if you have significantly different versions of the same title and prefer one over the other then I guess the workaround would be to rename the tracks in order to distinguish them. E.g. add the otherwise redundant \[Live\] tag onto the titles of tracks from a live album so these are not selected in error when you try to create a Genius mix based on the studio version of the same track.

  • Multiple versions on one computer?

    Hi!
    I am a new Macbook user that I bought to start developing Mac software.
    I would like to use multiple versions of Mac OS X on my macbook if possible.
    Can this be done so that I would have 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5 of Mac OS X installed and select the version on boot.
    Thank you!

    Just to build on what TP has mentioned... the reason for this is that older versions of OS X are never updated for newer hardware. As all Macs ship with the most current OS on them, there is never a need to update previous versions of the OS. There have been a number of significant hardware updates since 10.3 (I don't believe any version of 10.3 was ever released for the Intel Macs). If you had an older MacBook that came with 10.4, you could get away with installing both 10.4 (using the version it shipped with) and 10.5. If you have a more current MacBook, 10.5 is pretty much your only choice.

  • [Forum FAQ] Schedule multiple versions of System Image Backup in Windows 8.1

    As we known that there is no UI for user to configure Image backup in Windows 8.1, this is a guide for your to schedule multiple versions of System Image Backup.
    Step 1: Create a task to schedule an image backup with following command:
    SCHTASKS /Create /SC WEEKLY /D MON /TN WeeklyFullBackup /RL HIGHEST /ST 13:00 /TR “wbAdmin Start Backup -backupTarget:F: -include:C: -allCritical -quiet”
    Step 2: Schedule a robocopy to backup the saved image with BAT file:
    Please create a new folder (in this example, the new folder is e:\test2) to save your multiple copies of image backup:
    Write following batch file to copy backup and rename with backup date:
    *****************BAT********************
    @echo off
    robocopy e:\test1\ e:\test2\ test.wim
    ren e:\test2\test.wim  test_%date:~10,4%%date:~7,2%%date:~4,2%_%time:~0,2%%time:~3,2%.wim
    NOTE: e:\test2 is my location to save multiple copies of image backup; e:\test1 is the location I create the system image backup.
    This BAT can also help to rename the copy of image backup with date and time like below:
      3.  Set up a basic task in Task schedule:
    Note: please make sure the time you configured follows the time you set for image backup in Step 1.
    Action -> Create basic task (Name you task) -> Trigger (Set how often this task should be run) -> Action (Start a program) -> Under Program/script, point to your bat file you create in Step 2.b -> Finish
    At the end, you can know more about SCHTASKS and Robocopy via following links:

  • Manage multiple versions(ID CS,CS2,CS3,CS4) of INDD files Indesign proxy for PC

    Dear scripters,
    I have multiple version of ID installed in my system. I have ID CS,CS2,CS3 and CS4. While I am opening (double click) the ID CS file, automatically the file opening in CS4. For solving this problem I have searched in the forums I found there is a program called INDESIGN PROXY for MAC OSX. It manages the problems well.
    Now I am in the process of developing the application same like that for windows using VB. Here is my observation about Indesign proxy.
    1. While user double clicks the Indesign file the argument is not passing to the Indesign.exe, but the argument passes to the Indesign proxy. Something like this
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS4\InDesign.exe" "%1"
    to this
    "C:\Program Files\IDproxy\proxy.exe" "%1"
    2. The proxy exe lists all the version of IDs in a dialog box. If user selects CS2, the proxy exe passes the command argument something like this
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS2\InDesign.exe" "%1"
    3. Now the file will open in correct version.
    I am comfort with VB forums and coding but I am struck getting the file path while user double click's the file. I short need to get the file path of "%1" argument.
    I think I am detailed.
    Kindly advice me how can I proceed more?
    Thanks
    regards

    I don't think it's a mistake.
    "InDesign CS4 (3.0)"
    means: this is the OM for InDesign 3.0 (i.e., InDesign CS) that is contained in InDesign CS4.
    Wait -- do you mean there might be a difference between "the OM for InDesign 4.0 (i.e., InDesign CS2) that is contained in InDesign CS4" and, say, "OM for InDesign 4.0 (i.e., InDesign CS2) that is contained in InDesign CS5" ?
    Why on earth would anyone need that? I imagine it's not because even with versioning the 'older' scripts may not behave the same -- there must be dozens of mails about versioning not working ... I mean, if Adobe knows what causes older scripts to stop working (because, if I understand you correctly, they retroactively change it in the documentation for older versions), wouldn't it be yet easier to not cause those changes?

  • Multiple versions on one box

    Hi
    Could someone help me with the below questions.
    We have multiple MaxDB databases running on one box for EC and BW. There is  a requirement to upgrade the BW database software, to do this do I have to upgrade the other databases on the box? Though my OS is Linux, I would also like to know the possibilities in windows environement.
    If we can have multiple versions of databases on one box, are there any known problems. If the database version are different, how does the common services or executables work (eg:- I understand that there is only on XSERVER per box) and which folders are updated (is it only "database_dependent_path" or "independent_program_path" as well)?
    Please advise
    Thanks

    Hi,
    1. "Do I have to upgrade the other databases on the box?" -- It depends on your software and instance setup. If the multiple instances are installed under different directories. For e.g., the two instances 773 and 763 are installed under different directories on my PC:
    > dbmcli db_enum
    773     C:\sapdb\773\db                         7.7.03.16       fast    running
    763     C:\sapdb\763\db                         7.6.03.06       fast    offline
    > dbmcli inst_enum
    7.7.03.16    C:\sapdb\773\db
    7.6.03.06    C:\sapdb\763\db
    If the EC and BW instances are installed under different directories, you can upgrade them independently of each other. This behavior is similar on all OS.
    2. There are no known problems running multiple versions of databases on one box. When you update one instance, the database_dependent_path is updated. If the independent_program_path contains programs of an older version or build, it is updated as well.
    Hope this helps,
    Ashwath

  • Multiple versions of PSE on same computer.

    Can multiple versions of PSE be installed and used on one computer, e.g. PSE5, PSE8, PSE11, and PSE 13.  Will there be conflict or other kinds of problems?  Are the different versions in any way connected or are they each entirely stand alone with "touching" each other?  Or, another way of putting this is, do I have to uninstall prior versions of PSE before installing a newer version on the same computer?  Thanks for any advice you can offer.

    rgthoman a écrit:
    Is this true of the organizer as well as the editor?  If files are stored in the organizer of one version, are they readily accessible for editing in another version?
    That has nothing to do with several versions. Files are NOT stored in the organizer. They are somewhere on your drive(s). If you have a single Elements version and several catalogs pointing to the same files on your drive(s), each catalog will be able to access the same files... until you move, rename or delete them from another catalog.

  • Multiple version of Java on one machine

    Is it possible to have multiple versions of Java co-exist on the same XP Pro machine?
    Here is our scenario: we have apps that use Java 1.5, but we have one critical app that doesn't support that version yet. It has to use the 1.4 version. Is there a way to allow both versions to exist and be usable for their respective apps? If so, how?
    Thank you.

    I can't, however it's never a good idea to have
    multiple versions of Java on one machine. Try and
    standardise if possible. If OP used JAVA_HOME as you
    often suggest, then he would be knackered wouldn't
    he? JAVA_HOME can only point to one JDK. Your
    advice is conflicting kaj.Nope. JAVA_HOME should always be defined in the start script/file for a java application, so it's not set per system. It's very common that companies have applications that requires different JDK/JRE versions, and it's usually very expensive to upgrade all applications (if it's possible at all). You can of course also alter the PATH variable if you want to in the script.

  • Multiple versions of labview on 1 computer

    Hello,
    I have just purchased LV 8.2 and am about to install it on my computer.  The old version of LV I currently have on my computer is 7.1.  Can I run both versions on the same computer or is it beneficial to take off LV 7.1 first before installing the new 8.2.  Any opinions?

    Azazal,
    You can certainly run both versions on the same computer.  I have 6.1, 7.1, 8.0, and 8.20 installed on this machine and I regularly have more than one version open at the same time.
    However, Paulo is very correct by saying that toolkits typically only install for one version of LabVIEW and that you need to be careful not to open your VIs in the wrong version of LabVIEW.  If you were to open and save a LabVIEW 7.1 VI in 8.20 you would be unable to open it again in 7.1.

  • Multiple versions of an application on one Forms Server

    Is it possible to have multiple versions of an application available via one Forms Server?
    We have a DEV, TEST and PROD version of an application and we would like to have the versions seperate on one Forms Server.
    Would this be possible using any other Oracle tools (Portal)?
    Thanks for your help.

    Yes, all you have to do is create a batch file which sets the env variables you want and also starts up the forms listener on a different port. This way you can have a forms listener on e.g.
    Port 9000 With Forms60_Path - c:\temp
    Port 9001 With Forms60_Path - c:\Production
    Port 9002 With Forms60_Path - c:\test
    That way you will pick up different files as well.

  • Solaris 11 IPS:  How do you post multiple versions of the same package?

    How do you post multiple versions of the same software package on a single IPS instance(port)? Oracle was able to do it here with versions 151 and 175 of S11:
    http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release/
    Unfortunately, based on my searches, no where in the documentation (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris11/technologies/ips-323421.html) does it explain to the development community how this is done. The best I can do is create pkg repo instances on different ports to host each different software version.
    We are trying to deploy an IPS repository for our drivers and utilities that our customers can link to and pull updates from. We have been able to post a software package to the repository using the command:
    pkgsend publish -s http://localhost:1234 -d ./ Appv1.p5m
    This posts the package on the IPS repository instance at port 1234 on the server. However, we would like to post multiple versions of the package on the server at the same URL. Why the same URL? So that our customers and end-users need only point to a single URL to pull down our software rather than having to add a new URL to the publisher list each time we have an update. We want at least 5 of the previous software versions to be available on the server. Posting each version of the application or driver on a different IPS instance on a different port will require customers to add multiple URLs to their publisher list and they also will not be able to initiate remote scans for updates.
    Has anybody been able to do this? Is any documentation forthcoming?
    Edited by: user13489824 on Jun 25, 2012 10:17 AM

    dhduvall: Thanks for your response. Yes, one would think that as long as the version numbers are different, you should be able to accumulate multiple versions of a package in a repository. It looks like Oracle has done it in their S11 repository unfortunately, as far as I know, they have not shared the steps on how to do this. I would like to publish two versions of the same package. I.E. two different manifests with two different fmri.pkg version strings and two different binaries.
    If I publish one package after another like this:
    pkgsend publish -s http://localhost:1234 Appv1.p5m
    pkgsend publish -s http://localhost:1234 Appv2.p5m
    Then only the second package shows up in the repository, as if it over-wrote the first one.
    Running pkgsend with two manifest, like this:
    pkgsend publish -s http://localhost:1234 Appv1.p5m Appv2.p5m
    Will cause pkgsend to combine the packages and manifests as if they were a single package... not what I am trying to do.
    Both approaches are complete without errors but neither achieves what I am trying to do.
    alan.pae: Thank you. Unfortunately, the link didn't really help. I've read Oracle's white papers and IPS developer guide so I'm familiar with the topics covered.
    Lex: Yes, I know. I specified the versions in the pkg.fmri value string.

  • How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project?

    OK...this is a probably a very basic question but I'm not sure how to word it clearly.
    How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project? What I mean is that I have a bout 50 minutes of video and I want to make two DVDs using different clips from this original 50 minutes of footage. It would be a real pain to have to re-import the video AGAIN for the second DVD. I suppose I could drop anything I don't want to burn to DVD back into the clips pane but that would wipe out all my transitions wouldn't it? I want to save each project in their “raw” form so I can burn additional DVDs later otherwise I would just do them one at a time and not care about one of them being destroyed.
    Wow...that was a mess. Does anyone understand what the heck I’m asking? I hope so.

    How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project?
    You can't. You make separate projects using the same or different clips, segments, transitions, titles, etc. You can even duplicate the first project and then modify/make the desired changes in the duplicated project. Each project can then be burned as a different DVD or as different titles on the same DVD if there is enough room.

  • How do I have multiple versions of the same .chm?

    Our developers recently were required to make changes to an earlier version of our software (thank goodness for backups). So I'm having to revert to that earlier version, make changes, and create a revised .chm. HOWEVER, I already had completed the upcoming release's .chm and don't want to lose all of those changes. To make matters more complicated, I also have requests for changes to the Help for the future release.
    So, how does everyone have multiple versions of the .chm on their system at the same time and keep them separate, yet compile the right files with the right version? I had thought I could just create a new folder with the files that changed for the various versions, but updating them in Word 2007 is not a pretty proposition. I'll then have to import them in and replace the "old" ones. There has to be an easier way! I'm sure other people do this on a regular basis, but this is the first time I've had to go back a version, maintain the next version, and start work on a yet-to-be-released version all at the same time.

    It never ceases to amaze me how questions on the forum are like buses, none for an hour then three come along. Not your fault but this was asked just a couple of days ago.
    When your developers issue a new version you need to save a copy of the source, we just zip it up. Then you carry on editing for the next version and zip that up and go again.
    Then when a change is required to an older version, you dig it up, amend it and zip it again.
    Not sure how it works with source control. The above is easier and reliable, assuming you manage it tightly.
