The cause of duplicate songs with external hard drive??

I would love to eliminate this annoying problem... I keep my itunes music library on an external hard drive, so when my old g4 died and I got a Macbook I added the old song library to my new library. Almost all of the songs added in duplicates, triplets, and more. I tried to rectify the problem... but it's just gotten worse. And it does the same thing again each time I add something new. I have no idea why this is happening... does iTunes think I have two libraries? In which case, why do I have multiple libraries? There are so many songs that there is no way I could go through and delete multiples. Help please?

My music has done the same thing. Moving my music library to an external firwire Lacie hard drive has made duplicates. I'm sorry it has happened to you but am happy to know it wasn't just me.
Still haven't figured out why.........

    I get the following error when formatting a external hard drive.
    Partition failed with the error: 
    POSIX reports: The operation couldn’t be completed. Cannot allocate memory
    I have a Macbook pro 13" A1278. I purchased it around december 2010. I have a HHD 3.5" drive desktop select II 1.5TB. I purchased it around Febuary/March 2011 to use with my Macbook pro. I formatted it and moved all my files to there, I got it so my macbook's hard drive wouldn't brake and I lose everything on my macbook.
    Is there any fixes?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • Library management with external hard drive

    I have a 120GB external hard drive, where I store all of my music, audiobooks, videos, etc. When I created my iTunes library, everything worked great and I loaded my media into my Video iPod.
    But, the next time I plugged my external hard drive into my laptop, the library "cannot find" any of the files. So, if I want to copy anything over to the iPod again, I have to delete and recreate the library.
    Any thoughts on how to make this work so the link to a library on an external hard drive remains permanent?

    Using an ExHD is no problem. However, you should note several items:
    - The ExHD should always mount as the same drive letter. If not, iTunes will lose the references (you'll get the '!')
    - You must have the ExHD up and running before opening up iTunes, otherwise you may not be able to play the music and iTunes will reset the Music Folder to the default (on the C: drive).
    - It may be best to remap the ExHD to a letter that will never be taken by any other peripheral you attach. Use something like 'M'. That way, if you plug in something else before turning on the ExHD, the expected mount letter will still be available. Also see: How to change drive letter assignments in Windows XP
    I run a dual Library with Lossy files on my Laptop's internal drive and Lossless files on my ExHD. I have it mounting as 'L' and have never lost the references within iTunes.
    If I do have the ExHD disconnected (most times), and select a Lossless song, I will get the '!', but the next time I open iTunes with the ExHD properly attached, those 'broken links' go away.
    I would guess that you are mounting the ExHD as different drive letters from time to time.

  • Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad?  I want to bring RAW photo files from my camera, through the IPad and back to an external hard drive.  One of my cameras does not use an SD card.  How can I do this?

    Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad?  I want to bring RAW files from my camera through the IPad and out to an external hard drive.  One of my cameras has an SD card but the other one doesn't have a card that would fit in any of the camera devices I've seen on line.  Realted to this, I bought the IPad camera accessory.  Can I put the SD card in the device and also hook the external hard drive to the USB port of the accessory and download from the camera to the hard drive?  Can I put Lightroom or the Nikon photo editing software on the IPad?  Right now I carry a PC laptop and external hard drives with me on wildernes trips.  Internet and WiFi are not available.  Because I shoot so many photos and they're in RAW I need to download from the camera to the external drive because I run out of memory on the PC (and it has much more memory than the IPad).  I have Nikon NX software and lightroom on my PC.  I'd love to be able to reduce the weight I carry by using the IPad to edit my photos each night while on trips.  Is this possible and how would I do it?  I'd appreciate any guidance.

    No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
    For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.

    Hello friends.. I have a similar question, in that I would like to purchase the 2TB TC for use as a NAS device, in addition to taking advantage of the Air Port extreme.. Then I could dump my Linksys router.
    I was originally looking at a Synology NAS solution, but the TC seems like it can meet my needs.
    I have a Synology NAS as well as the Time Capsule.  If you look at the 3.2 beta program, the Synology actually attempts to replicate TC functionality in that you can use it with Time Machine on your Mac.
    I must say, Airport on the TC is definitely a nice feature!

    In addition to the obvious feature of the backup, can I indeed also use the TC as a NAS drive to access from remote locations (example from the office)?
    I'm surprised more people aren't using the TC as a dedicated NAS deviced.. I've searched high and low on forums around the web, and don't seem to see many people trying to use it as I've outlined.
    I can't see why this wouldn't fufill my needs, and take the place of a separate NAS solution (like the Synology, or iOmega, Seagate, etc....)
    Has anyone used this TC as such?
    Yes, you can do this and it's something I've been trying to do, but I'm currently having issues.  I have another thread stating I consistently get "connection failed" messages.  I'm basically storing my music/photo/video files on the TC and keeping my Mac hard drive fairly lean.  In terms of NAS functionality, the TC is very basic.  Synology/QNAP and others have a lot more features so don't rule them out.

  • Issues with External Hard Drives

    I hope this is the right forum for this one - please give me a steer if not! I've also posted it in 'Dock and Finder', but this forum seems equally appropriate, if not more so.
    I'm getting repeated issues with External Hard Drives, including ones that I have been using successfully for months/years, suddenly failing to mount and then becoming 'unknown device' through the firewire branch of 'About This Mac'.
    I've just bought a new hard drive on the grounds that the others had somehow failed, and the same problems are emerging. I decided to Repair Permissions on my iMac's internal drive, and am copying the results below, from repair runs conducted yesterday and today:

    Permissions repair complete
    My concerns are:
    * Some of the permissions repaired yesterday appear to have needed to be repaired again today
    * There are several files which carry a warning that they won't be repaired as they have been 'modified', and some of these clearly relate to disk management.
    Does anyone have any ideas what is going on???
    Thanks!!

    Many problems with the 10.5.7 update have been fixed by a Restart.
    If that doesn't help, something may have gone wrong with the update. Download and install the "combo" update, from: http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_7_ComboUpdate
    If that doesn't help, try running the Apple Hardware Test, on the disc that came with your computer.
    1. Disconnect all external devices (including the Ethernet cable) except the keyboard and mouse.
    2. Insert the "Additional Software & Apple Hardware Test" disc that came with your computer.
    3. Restart while holding down the "C" key. When the list of available startup volumes appears, click Apple Hardware Test and the right arrow.
    4. When the Apple Hardware Test main screen comes up (after a moment), follow the on screen instructions.
    5. If it detects a problem, an error code will be displayed. Make a note of it.

  • Blue screen on start up with external Hard drive connected

    On start up Imac freezes on light blue screen with external hard drive connected via firewire. Starts okay without hard drive connected. I have repaired the drive with no resolution of the problem.

    You might try starting the iMac in "verbose mode" by holding down command-V when booting:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1492
    That could show you some messages that might explain the problem.
    Another approach is to launch the Console utility and look for messages dated around the time of a hang.

    Buy another hard drive.  They're cheap these days.
    In fact, buy a couple of 'em.  I recommend a minimum of five internal hard drives.
    C: Windows and Programs
    D: Project, graphic and audio files
    E: Cache and Scratch
    F: Media
    G: Export

  • How can i use the airport time capsule as a external hard drive?

    how can i use the airport time capsule as a external hard drive?

    Why do you recommend not place things like iTunes libraries or photo libraries on the drive? It was what I am looking for...
    I suggest that you ask the experts over in the iPhoto Support Community about their opinions on placing an iPhoto or Aperture library on the Time Capsule....even if you plan to use a wired connection for your Mac and the Time Capsule.
    But, if Terrence Devlin answers, be prepared for a lecture about why you should not ever do this.
    If you place the iTunes library on the Time Capsule, be prepared for iTunes to give you messages about not being able to find the library.
    In addtion, LaPastenague has the answer for you in a nutshell......corruption problems.
    Bottom line....the Time Capsule is for your backups.....not "everyday" files and especially not libraries.

    Use the Organizer backup & restore method, starting the restore from the TLY file. Probably best to use a custom location as the XP file structure will be different. See this link for further help:

  • HT203167 I have just downloaded the latest itunes version (11.0.1). All my data cannot now be located, though the library is showing all the correct content.The data is stored on an external hard drive. How do I tell the library where to find it's data?

    The iTunes application should be installed on the system drive. You may need to repair iTunes to fix that error regarding a missing .exe.
    To organize your library properly see Make a split library portable.
    If you don't have a working version of the library that can be transformed into a portable shape I have tools and techniques that can repair the broken links.

    i buy the new imac,late 2012 with a hard-drive 3TB and i want to change with another hard-drive 1TB....where i can buy?

    It's also much more difficult to install third-party hard drives in current or recent Macs than it was. See:
    http://blog.macsales.com/10146-apple-further-restricts-upgrade-options-on-new-im acs
    The 2012 iMacs are also in essence glued together and very difficult to disassemble and reassemble. The bottom line is: don't try it.
    Why, if I may ask, would you want to remove the 3TB drive and replace it with a 1TB drive? What is it you hope to achieve even if it were possible?
    Regards.
