Osx 10.9.5 multiple duplicates of same draft or email in Mail. If I search mail, sometimes 15 copies appear.

For the past months, MAIL does not seem to be working right. Sometimes it stores 15 copies of the same mail, sometimes the drafts stay in the draft's folder after they have been sent, sometimes not. Some mails disappear altogether. I also feel that the FINDER is behaving differently. ALL MY FILES looks totally different and I can not locate documents, I have the impression that things are mixed up. Anybody in the same boat?

** Multiple Duplicates Of Same Album **

Ok in iTunes it says that I have one copy of 'Viva La Vida' by Coldplay, however when i sync this to my ipod, for some reason it comes up with 4/5 copies of the album.
When I highlight one of the albums it says that there is only about 2 or 3 songs in the album, however when you open it it lists all 11/12 (can't remember how many) tracks. Like I said it repeats this 5 times and iTunes still says I have only the one copy.
I have tried deleting the tracks off of itunes and then importing them, since I have the CD and then syncing my iPod back again, but it still insists that there are 5 albums there.
Please help as its really annoying.
If you want any screenshots or anything just ask
Thanks

Thanks, but I don't think that the songs have different album artist names. There are approximately 12 tracks on Viva La Vida, however what my iPod seems to have done is copied this album 4 or 5 times to create many duplicates, even though iTunes clearly states that there is only the one copy.
Also, like I said, my iPod tells me there are only 2 or 3 tracks on each copy of the album, however showing the album contents reveals the whole album in its entirety (12/13 whatever songs)so for example, my iPod list looks something like this:
Coldplay
Viva La Vida - 2 tracks
Viva La Vida - 3 tracks
Viva La Vida - 2 tracks
Viva La Vida - 2 tracks
Viva La Vida - 3 tracks
Again, it tells me there are only 2/3 tracks on each album, however there are actually all 12/13 on there.

Did you check your user name and password in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your email account, tap SMTP, then tap the primary server name. Make sure the settings there are correct.

How Do I Get Rid Of Multiple Duplicates AND Relocate Numerous Files?

Basically I'm fed up of iTunes.
A couple of months ago, i had a problem with my itunes library due to a message regarding the iCloud. This practically deleted my whole iTunes library and forced me to relocate every single track, which took a lot longer than it needed to.
I was already annoyed with iTunes by this point, until yesterday around 1/3 of my tracks were still unlocated, however I could cope with this because I had the majority of my songs, despite this not being ideal.
Yesterday I was informed I needed to update my iPod, naturally I did. Then...this is when I start to get mad, my iPod crashed, then restored itself COMPLETELY back to factory settings, removing my songs and all my apps. I reopen my iTunes library to see that, that has also restored and NONE of my music is there.
Now, after a bit of fiddling, I have an iTunes library full of songs which have been duplicated twice or even three times, to add to it, hardly any are actually located. It's not just as simple as redownloading from iTunes, because I expect half my library is music from CDs. So now not only am I faced with trying to get rid of all the duplicates, I also have to locate all the songs (I have checked the preferences and redirected it to My Music > iTunes - basically what it should be) and I have to get rid of all the songs that I didn't want in the first place such as old songs that should be long gone off my iPod/Library from now.
If anyone could help, that would be great, because I'm so tired this time-consuming mess my iTunes has become.
Thanks in advance!

Broken Links
It depends a bit on why things aren't where iTunes expects to find them but if they are in sensible Artist & Album folders in some common location then my FindTracks script should be able to reconnect them to iTunes. FindTracks uses some fuzzy matching routines and searches for multiple potential locations within a media folder. For more details see this thread.
Duplicates
Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)
I intend at some point to improve DeDuper so that when there are multiple duplicates, where at least one is connected to a file while others are missing, it can throw away the entries to any missing files, however the current version needs all duplicates to have been repaired first.

The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.

Multiple duplicates, but erasing deletes the only original file?

HELP? i keep getting multiple duplicates, if i delete any of the duplicates, the original song is deleted in the itunes folder.
so i am left with a whole bunch of duplicates but no original file. searched everywhere but cant find my music .
i have now lost 200gb of my 1.5tb 25 year music collection. years of work? what am i doing wrong?
this is not just cd i can buy again but music i and friends have made

Command+A selects all items. Command+delete deletes the items, so I suspect it would delete all the files in that window, in other words I don't think it is what you want to do.
Looking at this another way, there isn't any easy shortcut to deleting duplicates from iTunes. The best way is to stay on top of duplicates as they are created and change how you do thing in iTunes so you do not create many duplicates. Oh, there are scripts that will do this, but some things iTunes may say are duplicates are not. I have one album where there are two tracks with the exact same name and artist but one version is unplugged. iTunes just tells me they are duplicates.

HT201269 how do I merge multiple duplicate contact entries with cell home and e-mail entries

how do I merge multiple duplicate contact entries with cell home and e-mail entries?

Try linking cards:
Open any contact you want to merge, tap on Edit and look at the bottom part of it. You'll find 'Link Cards' and from there you may select the contact you want to link with the one you're looking at. So if you have:
Contact 1: John A (job)
Contact 2: Business Name (who is also John A but you saved it as a different contact)
Contact 3: Something else that's also John A
You can link all three cards into one. If you choose to, you may unlink them at any time, just tap Edit and then the red circle. Your contacts won't be deleted, but they won't appear under the same ID anymore.

Receiving multiple duplicate emails using Outlook 2010

I am receiving multiple duplicate emails using Outlook 2010. The email receiving, can go up to few hundreds copies. Not
all emails i receive will be duplicated. There is no common sender for those affected emails. Usually when i received email from my Outlook 2010 the email in Outlook Web Access will be gone. But this time round for those affected duplicating emails, it still
can be found in the Outlook Wed Access. Any solution for this problem? Currently
I would need to go into the Outlook Web Access to delete the affected email then the duplication will be stop. Or I would need to cancel the Send/Receive & restart Outlook. But this 2 method is only temporary solution. The problem will keep coming
back.

Dear Jeremycny,
I think you are working with a POP3 account and issue of replicated emails in Outlook is common in the case of POP3 connection. So, first of all uncheck the
“Leave a copy of messages on the server” option and see the results.
Also, see the TasK Manager, if there are multiple “Outlook.exe” are running under the
“Processes” tab, then end the unnecessary programs as each of them downloading the same email multiple times.
Apart from it, if there are numbers of factors behind the replication of emails in Microsoft Outlook such as:
Rules (Exploiated Rules)
Scanning Programs Integration
Damaged Outlook Profile

Friends are receiving multiple duplicate messages

After switching to Verizon from AT&T, my friends are reporting that when I send a text message, they will receive the same message two to four times in a row. Sometimes a message will continue to repeat itself after x minutes.
I know it is not the phone because I first had a Droid Razr and then switched to the HTC Trophy. The problem occurs on both phone.
I just got the Trophy today and straight out of the box, after activation my friends reported receiving multiple messages again.
I'm using the native text messaging app and have powered the phone off several times. But again, since it happened with the Droid, it doesn't seem like it would be a phone issue.
Any thoughts of this would be great.

Hi SonorousGiraffe & NATRAPS!
I see how the duplicate text message problem can become aggravating. I would like to assist with resolving.
First, thanks to Ann154 for the great feedback & suggestion!
There may be some resetting on the account we would need to do in order to resolve the duplicate text message issue. If you are still experiencing this, please reach out to me directly so I can further assist.
Thanks,

HT2905 The duplicate option has been removed from the latest version of Itunes. I have over 1000 duplicates and need to have a multiple duplicate removal option. How do i do that?

I have over 1000 duplicates in both my files and in the Itunes library. The duplicate function appears to have been removed from teh latest version of Itunes. How do I identify and remove multiple duplicates from my library and my music file

The show duplicates/show exact duplicates features have been left out of iTunes 11.0. Rumor suggests they will be restored in the next build. In the meantime I have written two Windows scripts to make playlists of Duplicates and Exact Duplicates, either from a selection of tracks or the entire library. Note that, as with the iTunes feature, this list makes no distinction between "originals" and "dupes", you have to decide which is which.
There is also my DeDuper script for automatically removing duplicate copies but keeping one remaining copy of each set. This can preserve ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. which are lost in a manual clean up. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping. See this thread for background on deduping and the script.
If you want to manually remove duplicate tracks use shift-delete to remove selected tracks from the library as well as the playlist. Keep one of each repeated group of files and don't send the others to the recycle bin unless you are sure that there are multiple files on the disc as opposed to multiple entries to the same file. Same advice to backup applies.

How to restrict login for multiple users having same Role

Our Web Application is deployed on Tomcat 5.5
The requirement is ?
There are roles in application like "operator", "admin"?
There are multiple users created for each of the above role.
When one user of "operator" role is logged in, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, if user did not log out & application gets close, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, it should not allow to login for multiple requests of same user
(using another browser instance...)
Is it possible using session object?
But, using session object, it will create separate objects for different users,
So here I will not be able to restrict session object creation rolewise.
Also, how to retrieve these multiple session objects created for different users on server?
If anyone is having the solution please reply as soon as possible,
Thank you.

To tell you the truth, this is a stupid requirement. It must be an extremely fragile application.
In any case, you will have to write your stuff for that. Probably a filter that on login, logout, and session expiration checks, makes, or removes entries in a DB (using a synchronized resource to prevent race conditions) or possibly even simply in an application context object.

How to update software on multiple iPhones using same iTunes account?

How to update software on multiple iPhones using same iTunes account?

SeanB15 wrote:
Here are more details on my situation which should help clarify things...
I purchased three iPhone 4 models back when they first came out (for my family) that all share the same iTunes account for access to apps and music, but each phone/user still has his/her custom contact list, email accts, and select lists of apps and music from the one iTunes acct library. The problem is (as I understand it) that I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones – the primary phone I used to setup the iTunes acct without wiping out the separate contact lists, etc. As it stands today... the first (primary) iPhone associated with the iTune acct has been updated with the latest software version 5.1.1 and sync'd up with all the apps, music, etc from the one iTune acct, while the other two iPhones are still running on the original software version 4.0.2 and are experiencing problems now. I was advised by AT&T back in January that it would be necessary to setup separate iTunes accts for the second and third iPhones in order to receive system updates and still be able to manage separate contact lists, etc. If I go this route, I assume we will lose all the apps on phones #2 and #3 that we have been "sharing"... correct? Since this AT&T advice was prior to iCloud coming out, would iCloud be a better solution or at least part of the solution? I really don't yet understand how iCloud works. Hopefully, one of you can help me??
we have 2 iphone 4's synced to the same itunes account for apps and music since the day we bought them, but each has a different icloud acct. they have both been updated on the same itunes account with every update that has come out since we bought them in december of 2010. nothing on either phone has ever been lost or duplicated. having said all that, maybe i'm missing something here, but we have had no problems. we do have itunes setup to sync manually. i do believe i'm a piker compared to lawrence finch, but i'm just telling you what happens in my house. maybe check with apple? is there a store near you?

How to use/sync single data (file) across multiple instances of same application

Currently we have an application (a diagram editor), that have the ability to save and load (serialize) its state in a xml file.
Now we want this application to behave like Microsoft OneNote application. Where multiple users have the ability to access the same file.
Later we may also need to enhance with other things like, (1)what is changed and who changed it, (2)option to resolve conflicts if any.
I came to know about sync framework to resolve this. so far, i have not tried it.
All i want is,
Virtually single file should be edited by multiple instances of same application.
We need a dll (sync framework) that does following
It takes complete responsibility of file handling.
Using this dll, each instance of the application will notify their own changes.
Each instance of the application should have the ability to detect the changes that is recently made (when, who, what are the changes).
My question:
Will sync framework be suitable for this requirement?
If so, is there a demo application that represents this?
- Jegan

Seems like I have found the solution.
In the taskflow there is a property named data-control-scope and I set it to isolated instead of the default (shared) and this seemed to do the trick.
I can now have two instances of the same taskflow running with different ApplicationModules
Cheers,
Mark
