Songs can not be deleted. Help!

I have three duplications of one song on my iphone that were stopped mid-download over wifi because of poor connection and cannot be deleted. The songs do not play they just sit there using up memory. How do i delete them? The delete swipe will not show up. I have all the latest itunes/software updates and i have tried deleting all of my songs off my iphone and redownloading the song off of wifi but it just adds another duplicate. I'd like a better solution that restoring my phone. Thanks in advance!

do you have itunes?
if so, plug in your phone, click on your phone under devices. click music, and uncheck those incomplete songs, then sync. this will take them off

The iTunes application saves your iTunes Store purchases--as well as any music, audiobooks, or videos you import--to your computer's hard disk, not the iTunes application itself.
The error message you note indicates that the purchase in question can’t be located where it is stored in your iTunes Music folder in order to play it, and may have been moved or deleted.
You will need to help iTunes locate the file. Follow the steps in this article:

After "Replace with clip" the original clip can not be deleted from the project - why?

After using "replace with clip" to replace clip A in the timeline with a new clip B , clip A can not be deleted from the project anymore.
If you try to delete clip A, you get a warning, that it still has references in one or more sequences.
If you continue and delete clip A, it seems to be deleted - at first!
Unfortunately if you save and reopen the project, clip A is restored to folder "Recovered clips".
It's not possible to really delete it.
I also did not find a way to unlink clip B from A .
The only thing you can do, is to revert the change by "Restore Unrendered" in the clip context menu. But that's obviously not helping
I dont know if this is a bug or a feature. I understand, that it can be useful to undo the "replace clip" function, but why would anyone not want to be able to delete the original clip at all?
help how to fix this problem is greatly appreciated!
I use Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 (Win7 64bit)

I'm sure it has nothing to to with other sequences.
You can easily reproduce this behaviour:
1. create a new project
2. import 2 clips and name them "A" and "B"
3. put "A" in the timeline
4. ALT-drag "B" over "A" in the timeline (or right-click "A" in the timeline while selecting "B" in the project files and select "replace with clip ... from bin")
5. delete "A" from the project files
6. save and close project
7. reopen project
=> "A" reappears in "Recovered clips" and can not be deleted.

When I try to sync, it will tell me that some of my songs can not be found, almost 100 of them. Any suggestion how to fix this?

Why when I try to sync to my ipod, it tells me that some of my songs can not be found when they are in my library?

iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

Can not completely delete a Metaset

metaset does not show it
cldg shows it
it is still in the ccr
it can not be deleted or purged (with metaset -P or -C purge)
it can not be recreated
root@NodeA # metaset -s metaset01

## Repeeated on NodeB, same result

If this is a production cluster, please call Sun support. If it was installed by them, you should have the SUNWscdtk package installed which should allow you to remove it using dcs_config (I think).
If it is just a cluster to play with (i.e. dev, test... basically unimportant if you mess it up), then you could 'hack' the ccr and remove the offending metaset. You'd need to boot the nodes in non-cluster mode (-x) and then go to the /etc/cluster/ccr directory and find all files with reference to the set. Some will just need a line removing (directory, IIRC), others will need to be removed completely (dcs_XXX). You will need to rechecksum these files using 'ccradm -i <file> -o' then boot into cluster mode again.
I would recommend backing up the /etc/cluster/ccr directory just in case it all goes pear shaped!
Remember, this is just for non-production clusters.

I am trying to download i tunes onto my pc but get an error saying that some old i tune files can not be deleted before reinstalling.

I am trying to download i tunes onto my pc (Windows XP) but get an error saying that some existing files can not be deleted to be re installed. I have tried several time but to no avail.

Many thanks, that's perfect.
The older version of apple software update cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group.
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Does it go through properly this time?

I tried downloading iTunes to my computer. It gives me an error where it says can not find iTunes Helper. I uninstalled all iTunes, restarted my computer, and then tried again. I keep getting the same error everyime. What can I do?

Apple Application Support was not found. Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again. Error 2 (Windows error 2).
Many thanks. That issue will be causing the iTuneshelper error message too.
With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version). If the following link takes you to the WinRAR home page rather than the WinRAR downloads page, click the Downloads header in the box at the left of the WinRAR home page to see the trial version downloads:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, see if iTunes will launch without the error now.
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Credit card clearing is active- Trip version can not be deleted

Hi Gurus,
      while deleting a trip which is not transfered to FI, we are getting the error message as " Credit card clearing is active- Trip version can not be deleted" Message number 56558.
    1) what could be the reason for this error message.?
    2)How to find whether credit clearing is active or not?
    3) If it is active what is the process to delete the trip?
             Could you Please explain ........
Thanks & regds
Ramachandra

Are you absolutely sure credit card clearing is not active?
Basically you need to check tcode PE03 > TRVPA > decision tree > select your molga eg "10" for US and then highlight "CCC" if it has values, 1, 2 or 3 then it is being checked. You need to make sure that it is set to "0" ..is TRVPA itself active?
2) you can look at the trip itself in PR05 and see if there is a credit card trip assigned, in the backend there is a little icon for "credit card receipts" which takes the receipts from the buffer
You can delete incorrectly assigned credit card receipts from trips at any time , just basically delete the receipt and it writes it back to the buffer
This wiki link is really comprehensive for CC receipts >

I keep getting a pop up with Original files can not be found. I just updated my iMac to Lion and I have over 10,000 songs I can not access. Help!

This morning when I went to access my iTunes library I got a message that "Original Files can not be found" and would I like to locate them and others. Of course I clicked "yes" but that did not solve the problem. Why did this happen over night and what is the easiest way for me to retrive 10,000 songs. This is not a good thing!!!

Error: [songname] was not copied to iPod because the song can not be found

I know that from my searches, this topic has been touched on but I am unable to locate a solution. So my apologies in advanced if asked and answered.
When updating, iTunes tells me that some songs cannot be copied because they cannot be found. However, the songs are clearly in the iTunes folder. I also have a backup copy of my entire library and adding them back from that library does not work either.
Here is what I have discovered about these files: some are songs that were in an album by themself and then the rest of the album was added later. Some of the songs are in the format of .mp3 and some are in the format of .m4a. None of the affected songs are purchased from iTunes; none of my purchased music is problematic.
This problem seems to be growing. At first it was just one song, then it grew to 48 and then to 59. The songs play just fine in iTunes, but cannot be copied to the iPod. I checked the properties of the songs, and none of them are read-only. There should not be a problem with permissions on this computer as I am the administrator and gave myself full priveleges on installation.
Clearly there is something wrong with these songs that prevents their being copied. Does anyone have any idea what is going on?
At the risk of getting flamed, please don't respond just to gripe about Apple, etc. I am looking for solutions, not commiseration.
Thanks in advance!

Replying to my own post since I don't see how to edit.
I have some more information that may help if someone can determine the significance.
I EXPORTED one of the playlists that contains 2 of the above described problem songs. I converted the text file to a table and then noted that in the last column (column 27) that there is a PATH to the song. All other songs do not have this in the path. The path does not refer to the current location of the file, either.
The first song that this happened to does not appear on any playlists so I did not discover this.
The rest of the songs got "lost" after I added some old playlists back to my Library that I had exported. In one particular playlist two of the songs had the wrong path in the Location column, and neither was found. However, the rest of the songs had a blank field in that column and were found just fine. So.... I think I may be onto something, for all those who have this problem. However, the only way to actually do this without a supercomputer would be to make a playlist of all the not-copy-able songs, export the playlist and carefully look for that path data.
I would love to hear if anyone has tried this for this problem. I don't want to keep replying to my own posts, but I honestly think I cracked this "bug". The problem appears to be that the data in the database gets errors in it during the moving/addition of a song from another place on the system, regardless of the settings in iTunes. In my case, I consolidated my library, allowed iTunes to organize my music and I am a fanatic about spelling and so forth for song titles and related information.
