Notes duplicating itself

I have this problem of some notes duplicating itself (sometimes more than 300 copies) while or after editing. I encountered it thrice in my new Mac book pro (OS: Mountain Lion). I literally had to delete all the duplicates manually as restarting the application didn't work. My "Notes" are synced with apple icloud.
Kindly help me to solve the problem

Hey Ang1950,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like only Notes are being duplicated. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.
Syncing Notes on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Duplicate notes
Syncing Notes both over the air and with iTunes can result in duplicate notes appearing in the Notes application. Use the following steps to resolve the issue:
Connect your device and select it in iTunes.
Click the Info pane and deselect the option to Sync Notes.
When prompted, select Delete Notes to remove the duplicates from the device.
If you want to sync notes with iTunes instead of using the over-the-air feature, disable Notes sync for the account using Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars or Settings > iCloud.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,
Mario

    I have a corrupt jpeg on my desktop. It has duplicated itself 450,000 times freezing my finder. I have reinstalled 10.6.8 but not freed up the desktop. I have managed to delete the corrupt jpeg from a shared imac but cannot delete the duplicates. Any ideas

    This can be done from Single User Mode. You're going to need a little nerve though since everything is command line based.
    1) Enter Single User Mode by restarting and holding down Command+S on the keyboard. A whole bunch of UNIX stuff will go by on the screen in white text on a black background. When it's done, the command prompt will be sitting at:
    :/root#
    2) Above that, you'll see that it tells you to enter two commands. Run this one first by typing it in and pressing enter:
    /sbin/fsck/ -fy
    This does a system file check. A good thing to do in your case as it may be damaged. It could take a while. When it's done, you'll be back at the :/root# prompt.
    3) Enter the second command and press enter:
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    4) Type the following at the prompt:
    cd /Users/name/Desktop
    Where it says "name" above, the short name of your user account goes there. If you're not sure what it is, first type:
    cd /Users
    Then type:
    ls
    That's a lower case L, not a one. It stands for "list". You'll get a listing of all files and folders in the Users folder. So if your short account name is diane, then the command will be:
    cd /Users/diane/Desktop
    After entering that command, the prompt should read:
    :Desktop root#
    Type:
    rm *.jpg
    Be very careful to type is exactly as shown. rm followed by a space, then *.jpg. Press enter and all files ending in .jpg will be deleted from the Desktop folder. With 450,000 of them, you could be waiting a while for the prompt to come back.
    Type:
    exit
    and press enter to boot back into OS X.

  • Mac Pro keeps duplicating itself in Shared section of Finder

    My computer has recently started duplicating itself in the Shared section of Finder. It's listing up to five separate versions of itself in there. When I open Photoshop it's saying it used to be installed in a different location and needs to be repaired. I presume this is because the computer name is being updated in Sharing.
    This has happened since switching from an Airport Extreme router to an Asus one and then back again.
    I have tried resetting the Airport Extreme to default and setting it up as new. It's connected via ethernet and wifi to the computer, but the problem is happening even with wifi switched off.
    I also trashed com.apple.airport.airportutility.plist and restarted. It seems to still be happening. I've also been getting intermittent messages about my IP address being already used and it changes it. It was up to about 21 before I reset.
    I've read elsewhere that this was a bug, but everything is up-to-date, so I don't know.

    My computer has recently started duplicating itself in the Shared section of Finder.
    Unfortunately, this one of several nagging networking bugs in Yosemite for which Apple has not yet been able to offer a "fix".
    The best that you can do in the meantime is open the Sharing folder and edit the name of the Mac to the correct setting. Restart the Mac after you do this.
    It would also be a good idea to reset the AirPort Extreme back to factory default settings and then set it up again if you can. There is no assurance that this will solve your issue, but it will not hurt to do this.
    Some users have reported that reinstalling the Yosemite operating system has helped, but again this is a lot of work, with no guarantee that things will improve.
    You may have better luck posting in the Yosemite forum, since the issue that you are reporting is really more of an operating system problem than an AirPort problem. The link is just below if you want to give that a try. Good luck.

  • Premiere 2014 MXF Footage Still Crashing, Glitching, Picture Freezes but Audio Plays Fine, Footage Duplicating Itself in Media Bin & Timeline - HitFilm3 pro plays fine!

    WTH is going with Premiere?  These continuing problems are just getting worse and worse. I just imported 12 hours of MXF footage at 720p and almost all the footage has duplicated itself in my media bin when I import. rather the files are there ie: AA009906.MXF, and so on numerically, but the lengths are all the same, and the picons play the exact same footage within the media bin. So I drag all the footage to the timeline where the footage is all duplicated the same amount of files there are. But not always. Also if I just drag the first file down to timeline, almost the whole disk shows up on the timeline. Finally when playing, after about a couple of minutes, the pictures freezes on some non descript frame for the rest of about 2 hours worth.  Then everything all picks up fine. Next chip of files same thing but at different places.
    What's really a hoot, is that I just downloaded a trial version of HITFILM3PRO editing software and all my footage plays just fine without any of ADOBE's glitches.  Also downloaded AVL Player for MXF files, to which everything plays just fine too.
    This is oh so ridiculous that If I weren't laughing so much right now, i'd be on the verge of a heart attack with all this Adobe Crap!
    I can't fathom why Adobe isn't paying me to be a Beta Tester, instead of me having to call my new client, Once Again, and tell them that their project is on Hold, Once again, just the same for every project ever since adobe introduced "CREATIVE CLOUD".

    That's strange. Can you upload a test file so I can try and replicate the behavior?
    You did ingest via the Media Browser after copying the camera's HD cards to your media HD right?
    What kind of camera is this?

    I don't know why, but you sure do get your fair share of issues. I would be happy to try and help you get through this if I can.

  • Notes Duplicating and Disappearing

    I'm having a frequent problem with notes duplicating: a not will suddenly appear as two copies, differing by the most recent edit. If I then delete either in an attempt to clear thing up, both vanish! I can reproduce this reliably.
    Has anyone else experienced this?

    hey roy just letting you know youre not alone out there. i basically have the same problem youre experiencing.
    tried both imap and pop, disable/enable "keep notes in inbox", none of these worked.
    this is my scenario
    i create a note, enter data, press done, it stores it in the notesbox but cant be edited.
    so i try to delete that note, it duplicates itself up to 20ish notes that cant be opened, edited and they are all empty on data.
    so i relaunch mail and 20 notes are opening up filling the screen, each empty on data, then they all just disappear when i close them all down by alt cliking the green close window blob orb.
    can't use notes at all, was one of the main features i was looking forward too in leo. now im looking forward to the update.

  • My Time Capsule expired and no longer works. My printer (a HP) will now not work as it still wishes to connect through the Time Capsule. It will not allow itself be recognised through a USB connection to my Mac. Anyone got any ideas?

    My Time Capsule expired and no longer works. My printer (a HP) will now not work as it still wishes to connect through the Time Capsule. It will not allow itself be recognised through a USB connection to my Mac. Anyone got any ideas?

    You will need to install the printer on your Mac
    Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
    Open Print & Fax
    Click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the printer list
    Wait for your printer to appear in the next box, then click it to highlight it
    Click Add at the lower right
    Be sure to select the correct printer when you try to print as you will see your printer listed twice. Good idea to make the printer now installed on your Mac the default printer so you do not have to choose which printer to use each time you want to print.
    You can also go into Print & Fax, select the printer associated with the Time Capsule and click the - (minus) button if you want to delete that location.

    Boot your computer into Safe Mode usually by tapping the F8 key at boot.  Select Safe Mode with Command Prompt.
    From there type  rstrui.exe and select a Restore Point prior to the time the problem started.
    If unable, you will have to perform a Factory Restore.

  • IPod is showing duplicates of songs, but songs are not duplicated in iTunes.

    iPod touch is showing duplicates of songs, but songs are not duplicated in iTunes... any ideas how to fix? Tried resyncing, didn't work.

    I'm fishing slightly but you may have casing inconsistenices in artist or album names that cause the iOS firmware to see more than one instance of the album but with each getting all the tracks. Merging stuff in iTunes via sort fields may also have unintended consequenses on the device. Could you post back a screenshot or decribe the symptoms more fully, ie. exactly which menu screen you are in on the iPod, what is repeated etc. The songs menu for example can correctly list more than one copy of a song if it appears on different albums.

  • TS3569 On my iPad 2, one particular recurring event keeps duplicating itself. I delete the duplicate and it reappears a day later. Help.

    On my iPad 2, one particular recurring event keeps duplicating itself. I delete the duplicate and it reappears a day later. Help.

    Do you use MobileMe and an iPhone? If yes, do this in the following order:
    Mac:
    (1) back up the applications giving you problems
    iPhone
    (1) Open settings, then open "mail, contacts, calendars"
    (2) Open .Mac account
    (3) Turn OFF the applications that are causing problems
    (4) When you turn off on of the applicatios, a red sign "stop syncing" will appear. Press it. A msg will appear "turning off xxx"
    (5) Get out of settings
    (6) Don't do anything for about 20 mins. Don't touch your iPhone or your Mac. (syncing needs time to settle down)
    After 20 minutes...
    Mac:
    (1) Open each application that is giving you problems. Fix errors. Back up.
    (2) Do this for each application
    iPhone
    (1) Open settings, then open "mail, contacts, calendars"
    (2) Open .Mac account
    (3) Slide switch to ON for each app you turned off; there won't be a msg
    (4) Get out of settings
    (5) Via MobileMe, syncing will start again.
    Wait about 20 minutes, again. You should see all in order after that. At least, that was my experience.

  • AAM not updating itself to Creative Cloud Desktop app

    I had the Creative Cloud desktop/toolbar app running briefly yesterday but was frustrated by having the CS6 and CC versions of various apps running side by side, so decided to uninstall everything and do a clean install.  I ran the various uninstall programs and the cleaner utility, then re-installed AAM, AI and PS as a starting point.
    AAM has not updated itself to the Creative Cloud desktop app, and if I go to the Download link for the Creative Cloud desktop app and click on Download, it just switches to the AAM app, and does nothing.
    If I look in the updates section of AAM, there are no updates for AAM itself and Creative Cloud Desktop is not an installable program in AAM either.
    Can anyone help me in either triggering AAM to update/install Creative Cloud Desktop, or provide some manual installation steps?
    Many thanks,
    Nick
