When syncing, music gets copied multiple times..help!

everytime I sync, my music gets copied in itunes so I have 3-6 of each song in my library. Why is this happening? I have to go back and manually delete 5 songs/each song. Any clues?
Thanks!

Plug your iPod into your computer and once iTunes open go to the iPod preference plane on the source list. There is the option to restore your iPod. Restoring means to erase your iPod completely and reinstall a new software on it. So if you have any files in your iPod that you don't have on your computer, back them up before you do the restoring. Otherwise, proceed with the restore (You need internet connection to do the restore). You should be fine after restoring it.

ITunes (unknown error -54) when syncing music to iPhone 4s. Help!

I just got a 64 GB iPhone 4s and I'm having trouble syncing my music library. A few artist into syncing and get an error message saying a certain song could not sync (unknown error -54). Then the rest of my library does not sync to my iPhone. I deleted all the songs that made it into my iPhone and I tried syncing my library again. I got the same unknown error -54 message again but it's another song that won't sync. The funny thing is that the previous song that wouldn't sync made it into my iPhone. Because of that I think it's an iTunes problem and not the file. Please help! Very frustrating!

I stopped using iCloud and started to sync everything to my MacBook Pro. I had also done a restore just to make sure it was being ungunked. Everything works perfectly now. I'm back to using my laptop iTunes for backing up my iPhone 4S

HT1351 When syncing music playlist from my itunes to ipod, I get a message saying some songs couldn't be found. Why is this - they are in my playlist.

When syncing music playlist from my itunes to ipod, I get a message advising some songs could not be found. Why is this, when the songs are in my playlist.

By design, the organizer (and any other database management systems) is there to prevent you from duplicating your media files. The catalog management allows you to have the same image in different categories or albums. Duplication in different folders is to be absolutely avoided.
The same image file can have multiple tags like 'family', 'vacations', 'birthdays' and be present in three different albums with the same names. On obvious advantage is less disk space. Another one with your present folder system is that if you edit one of your duplicates, the other ones are unchanged.
I don't see an easy way to make your present folder structure simplified for the organizer ...

Backing Bean constructor getting called multiple times

I have a List of records in the Table with a link Add.
When i click Add i show a popup dialog which is attached to the dialogListener.
On clicking OK on the dialog i want to add a record in the List in the backing Bean, but the Bean constructor is getting called multiple times.
and the list to which the table is attached is also getting called multiple times.
is there a way in which the method gets called only once?

Hi!
af:table have property ContentDelivery. When <default> (lazy), the table "frame" iz rendered in first page cycle, and content (rows in table) are fetched lazy i.e. in second cycle. Thus, your backing bean is constructed twice.
If you set ContentDelivery to immediate, the table including data rows is generated in single page cycle thus your backing bean is constructed only once.
Hope this helps,

ITunes 10.4 crashing when syncing music

I'm having a major problem after upgrading to iTunes 10.4 for Windows. I'm now randomly crashing when syncing music to my Ipad 2.   It seems some sync fine and then all the sudden it crashes.
The crash I'm getting is:
AppName: itunes.exe     AppVer: 10.4.0.80     ModName: quicktime.qts
ModVer: 7.69.80.9     Offset: 001cd746
What's odd is that it's even crashing on audio podcasts that I downloaded on my iPad 2 which are being synced to my PC without issue, but then cause it to crash when syncing back.
I had no problems with 10.3.1 or earlier.

This is long, jump to the end if you don’t care about my new life problem! And sorry for my English, I’m not a native English speaker! Also, I’m just posting this stuff so people with this issue don’t have to try it all also.
ok, so my problem started with the ipad 2; i had a lot of pictures there but wanted to change the "stupid" way (for a windows addict) that apple arranges, or not, folders hierarchy. I deleted every single picture and imported my new structure (in windows). Useless to say that i got stuck here. i tried 100 times and i got the quicktime.qts module error (iTunes crashing). Good to know, obv, but what do i know of quicktime!? nothing...
Since i have an iPhone 4, and the iPhone only ever carried pictures taken with it, never had synced pictures before i decided to give it a try. same error…Ok, now i know the problem isn't in the devices but in iTunes itself, Quicktime, most likely.
Not happy with this conclusion, i decided to restore factory settings on both ipad 2 and iPhone 4 (4.3.5 ios). Gave it another try, after deleting every ipod photo cache folder in my library and re-installing iTunes completely (i tried re-installing before devices restoring with same error). No luck here either...
Went to discussion boards and figured a lot of people are having this issue, so i thought it’s probably in the iTunes 10.4 update, since i didn’t have a backup of my previous library, and i have 20000 songs, and didn’t want to lose the only library i had, i opted not to install previous iTunes version because i knew my library wouldn’t work and i rather have a decent library with no videos, than videos with a new library to build. So I didn’t try this.
i tried everything, there's a post that a guy, a while ago, resolved this issue (or similar) simply by deauthorizing and reauthorizing computer, or just by logging in to his iTunes account... other person resolved his issue by logging on a new windows account and syncing with a "clean" iTunes then moving to his previous account. Or deleting some quicktime files and folders that are on system32 folder, besides the 2 files that are needed... i only had the 2 needed files, no more! I tried it all, no luck.
Somewhere i read it could have to do with quicktime not being the default video player for .mov files, so i made it, still no luck.
My last try was messing with the registry looking for "stupid leftovers" of quicktime, a lot of them i knew shouldn’t be there and i deleted, but i was still stuck on the crash error. for this i removed iTunes, cleaned computer from apple stuff (all but my library files that i backed up),
cleaned registry and installed everything back again.in the meanwhile, no sure when, i figured since this could have something to do with quicktime (i noticed that it gets stuck when starting to optimize videos), i created a test folder with one picture and 1 video and I managed to pass through optimizing process. tried with 3 movies, after emptying the device and deleting cache folder (like from scratch), but Kabooom, crashed again. tried same thing, but first i opened the movies in quicktime in windows, then synced and it worked!! probably this could be the solution, tried with my whole library (2k+ photos and about 100 movies) but crashed again... probably i forgot/messed up to open some movie in quicktimes pior to syncing, but well, i was fed up with .mov files, or .mp4, m4v, FWIW (i tried them all).
After this (i only did all this because I’m computer addicted!) i rested my case, i posted on the forums and had 2 choices: wait for apple to solve this, if they care or Format my PC and probably be getting the same error, this is the only thing i didn't try cause i have lots of stuff to backup and configure, and lots of onetime license software...
I kept doing stuff with computer, installed a bunch of software (not related to this but related to DVD and movie editing stuff), after i stopped working i retried again, Meh, cleaned everything and got thru once with my new test folder (with different videos and pictures), but when i went to my REAL folders, APPCRASH again. Broke my mouse (apple owes me this!), stopped working and went to sleep.
I was real convinced this could have something to do with video encoding/decoding stuff. And also about quicktime
Now, the only thing working for me was:
Opening movies in quicktime prior to syncing (worked once or twice)
syncing right after I turned on the computer, but only small folders.
Makes me think problem is in the processor, since it eats a lot of CPU and memory at the end of a 1000 picture and videos sync. And it crashes when starting to optimize videos, sometimes I see it passes like 2 or 3 movies and crashes after. That’s why I can sync small folders right after I turn on my computer, but with big folders itunes just lags my windows wayyyy to much and at the end (when gets to optimizing videos) is really hot and slow, and crashes, I could make 1 video at a time but I believe itunes should work for itself without these “workarounds”.
I’m a computer guy and an application that uses up almost all computer CPU when “working” and “eats” way too much RAM is not a solid application… in this part itunes *****.

Hi dktoa,
Thank you for the quick reply. i would like to explain my issue in clear.
For example, if we have an ip address 10.91.180.43 added to Network discovery rule.
When Discovery is run few times. its gets discovered multiple times and shows 3 or 4 times under Network Devices. And it gets listed multiple times with same ipaddress not with different ip.
it will look like this
10.91.180.43
10.91.180.43
10.91.180.43
---- I read both articles, they are were interesting.
Do you mean to say that my issue will get fixed , if i change the AccessAddressFormat = "AUTOADDRESS" as
AccessAddressFormat = "LOOPBACKADDRESS"
Please guide me if i am wrong.
Thank you once again.

Error file in cferror gets executed multiple times

The error cfm page included in <cferror> tag in Application.cfm gets called multiple times, so email notification is sent more than once. Any thoughts how this can be handled?

Could we see the code of the tag? In any case, does it help when you place <cfabort> at the end of the error page?

ValidateEntity getting called multiple times

Hi,
There is a parent EO and a child EO. There is a composite association between the parent and child.Association accessors are generated for both source and destination. In the ChildEO's doDML method , the following code is added.
Long abc = getPArentEO().getAttr1();
Long xyz = getPArentEO().getAttr2();
setAttr3(abc);
setAttr4(xyz);
super.doDML();
getParentEO() is the association accessor .
After the addition of this code, all the method validators of the parent are getting fired more than once. The validateEntity of the parentEO is getting called more than once if I set some attribute of the childEO in childEO's doDML . Is this the expected behaviour?
Thanks.

Even on adding the setter in prepareForDML (either in parent or child) , the validateEntity is getting called multiple times. In fact ,validateEntity is getting called once before prepareForDML and again after. One of my method validators fail on the subsequent call giving an error ..Please help.

Php include file getting called multiple times

I have created a form in file career.php. To carry out the validation user_registration.php is called at the beginning of the file.

I am not able to understand why user_registration.php and library.php are executing again and again.
I ran this test on local testing server MAMP.
The results are the same on remote server also.
Please guide.

I'm not sure what's happening there. The important question is whether the code is executed successfully.
Since you're using the Zend Framework, it might be better to ask in a dedicated ZF forum.

When syncing I get multiple contact, how do I get rid of multiples?

When I sync with my computer I get multiple contact with minor differences. I then pick the one I want in i-tunes, but I still get multiple contacts. I can physically delete each one, but that takes forever and the next time I sync I get all of them again.

You're welcome.
The Apple ID was changed where on the device?
The Apple ID for the iTunes & App Store can be the same or different than the Apple ID registered with iMessage and FaceTime on the device.
Where it is changed for iMessage is at Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID.
Select the Apple ID and at the menu window that appears, select Sign Out. Sign back in there with the different Apple ID to register that Apple ID with the iPhone's phone number with iMessage.

I have a gmail account set up on my macbook pro. One mail I sent with photos continues to repeatedly downloaded in Recovery. At the same time my Gmail won't download new emails into Inbox when I press Get New Mail. Help

I have a gmail account set up on my mac. A few days ago I sent an email with photos in it and this email now is continuosly being recovered. In the meantime my inbox has stopped downloading new messages, even when i press Get New Mail. How can I stop the repeated recovery of the email and how can I get my inbox to download again?

OK, I persevered and used the Rebuild mailbox option on Mail, actually had to do it twice, but now when I boot up and Mail opens all the previously received iCloud messages I've read on iPhone/iPad are pushed through.
Back to normal...

When sync iPod, get error message and deletes all playlists!

Just the other day a problem developed. When I sync my iPod (160G,) after a short time of syncing I get a pop-up which says, "Cannot sync "Dennis iPod" because an unknown error occurred. Error number 48"
I clicked OK, and it seemed to sync anyway without further problems. Now this may be a separate issue, but yesterday I was trying to help a friend with loading iTunes on his computer and then getting music in it and then syncing his new Nano. He knows less about computers than I do, so I went through all the steps in detail, clicking on various settings, etc.
I don't recall changing anything and I have gone over my iTunes setup again and it looks OK to me, but the next time I synced my iPod, iTunes ERASED ALL THE PLAYLISTS!
I have it setup to sync only "checked" playlists.
I am using iTunes 7.5.0.20
Another thing I have noticed for some time now is that syncing my iPod seems to take much longer than it used to. For instance, I get a podcast of a radio program which I like to put on my iPod. The program has three segments which are approx. 30 min. long. It used to take what seemed to be about 6-7 sec. per segment to sync. This was back in the days of the older iTunes which showed the Music playlist with little icons beside the new material to be synced. As it synced, as I recall, the icon disappeared. Now it takes several times as long to sync. Any suggestions. By the way, I don't have "use error correction" checked.
Thanks for any help.

My itunes freezes when syncing my ipad. can anyone please help?

I have a 3rd gen Ipad with version 6.1.3 installed and Itunes 11.0.2.26 installed. I am trying to connect my ipad to my laptop (windows 7). Each time I connect the USB cable, Itunes recognizes the ipad and trys to connect to it. As it trys Itunes freezes and i canot do anything. (if i am listening to music it wil continue until that song is done) The rest of my computer is fine and not frozen. Itunes will eventually get to the point where it will show a little picture of the ipad instead of the circular loading symbol. But at that point itunes is completely frozen and i can't even open any menus. If i then unplug the ipad, itunes will free up like nothing happened. i have tried reinstalling itunes, restarting my computer, resetting the device manager, restarting my ipad, tried all of my USB ports, tried connecting with my Wireless internet disconnected, and probably a few more things i can't think of, oh and when i run the diagnostics, it tells me that there is no ipad detected. And when i am plugged in, my ipad charges for a split second then says it is not charging in the top right corner. Help?

I was able to get my iPad synced just now by going into the control panel and accessing "Services". This is located in the "Administrative Tools".
There you will find a service called "Apple Mobile Device". Select that service and you should see options on the left side of the window to stop or restart the service. I stopped it, started it again, and I was able to sync my iPad, finally.
I saw the instructions for this on another thread. I tried to find it again to post a link for you, but no luck.
In the meantime I also set up the iPad backup to go to the cloud rather than my PC. This also seemed to be less taxing on the system when syncing. I don't know which action enabled me to sync (for now), but something worked.
It's somewhat infuriating. Let me know if you find out anything else. I need documents on my iPad for work, and if I can't load them on there it has become a very expensive and heavy paperweight.
Cheers!
