Why do I have double of every movie??

When I open the finder, I click on All Movies, and I'm able to see all my movies. The problem is I have double of every movie! Why is this? Can I delete one of each? If so, which one should I delete?? I'm just upset that it's taking up double the amount of memory it needs to. Thanks

Id like help on this too
Could be something to do with Iphoto&imovie....I import all my pics and movie clips into iphoto
Then as you probably know when you open imovie and select 'iphoto videos' it spends a million years opening thumbnails of every movie clip...
Its just a guess...but could this be actually duplicating every movie file?
Whats the deal here....I'd really like a huge amount of disc space back

    It may be how much space is available on your iPad. The average movie is around 2.5 gigabytes. If you reach your space limit then you can't download anything until you clear space.

    why do i have to pay every time i update from app store?

    If you have any questions about your account in particular rather than questions about why something is the way it is, it would be better to contact itunes support at expresslane.apple.com than to talk to us about it. we can't tell you specific information about your account, only how things work in general

  • HT204370 why did i have to buy the movie again if i allready bought it?

    why did i have to buy the movie again if i allready bought it? i want my money back

    You can't get a new DVD, which is what RG said. VUDU, the download service Walmart resells, is a different subject and not what RG was referring to.
    But what some other company can allow is irrelevent to the issue. From the iTunes Store, movies can be re-downloaded only in the US, and then only from those movie studios that have allowed it. This is not by Apple's choice; it's completely the choice of the movie studios.If your movie is not available under the Purchased section of your iTunes Store account, then redownloading is available only if you purchase the movie again.

  • Why do I have to render every video clip?

    Every clip I put in FCE has to be rendered, why? Is there a setting I have to change? I have a canon hv-20 and I'm using the 1080i setting in the easy setup menu. Thanks for any help!

    If they are identical then I can't help you. There is no reason why you would have to render. Which is that you have to render, video or audio or both? The render line is divided is divided into two thin stripes, upper for video, lower for audio.

  • I tried to make a second library, but my first one was deleted so I did it again but now I have doubles of every song. How do I restore my itunes back to the way it was before I tried to make a 2nd library?

    Like I said I tryed to make another library, I did what Itunes told me to do but it only erased the library I had and made a new one. So I did it again but I now have duplicates of every song. How do I get my it back to the way it was, before I tried to make a second library?

    C:\Users\Cheye\Music\iTunes should be the original library. You should be able to connect to it as follows.
    Close iTunes, wait a few seconds, click the icon that starts iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key. Keep holding until asked to choose or create a library. Click choose and browse to the file C:\Users\Cheye\Music\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl.
    Depending upon exactly what you did this has either restored your library, or done absolutely nothing at all. That was the reason for asking you to check using the script.
    Assuming you still have a library full of dupes there are a number of ways to go. I've written a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates which I discuss in some detail in this  thread. While it should work it will be ideal if it discards the copies that are outside the media folder C:\Users\Cheye\Music\iTunes\iTunes\iTunes Media. I've a feeling it will do exactly that, but it depends in part on exactly you got into this mess. It would be worth doing a few sample runs of just a few sets of duplicate files first.

  • Why doesnt itunes have the shows and movies i want to buy available for purchase in the store yet for example code lyoko and five fingers of death

    I would buy these shows and movies on itunes but they are not available how can i find them on itunes or somewere else that does have the shows and movies that i watch instead of the limited amount of content on itunes store now.

    Apple can only sell in a particular country's store what the content providers/rights-holders grant them licenses to sell. You can try requesting that they be added to your country's store, but unless the rights-holder agrees to it then Apple won't be able to sell them there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    Have you checked to see if they are available on other film/TV programme apps that you have access to ? e.g. is Netflix available in your country and have they got them ?

  • Why are the subtitles doubled on iTunes movie purchases?

    I just bought The Avengers and we've noticed the subtitles (for the parts where people are speaking another language) are doubled on top of each other. It looks like they are part of the movie (as expected) and it looks like the AppleTV is putting them on top of that in a shaded bar across the bottom. I've double checked my settings and Subtitles are turned off, so I wouldn't expect to see them. How do I turn this off?

    Summary: Basically whomever put this movie package together screwed up and you can't do anything about it.
    Detailed:
    There are 3 typical ways to show subtitles.
    1. Embedded/Overlay text on the video track
    2. Forced subtitle track
    3. Regular subtitle track
    Normally they would use either method 1 or 2 but it is wrong to do both.  However, it is a Catch-22 problem.
    - If only method 1 is used, the subtitles are always shown even if you didn't enable subtitles or your video player doesn't support subtitle tracks.  (However, they might not be in your language) 
    - If only method 2 is used, and your video player didn't support subtitles then you wouldn't get any subtitles.  If it does support them, which the AppleTV does, then it will always show them regardless of your "Subtitles Enabled/Disabled" setting.
    It seems that this movie uses both methods 1 and 2 which is why you see duplicated subtitles.
    Method 3 is the track you can control from the Subtitles menu.  If you enable the subtitles, it will show them for all the speaking parts, not just the Russian in this scene.
    I hope this help you to understand what is going on but unfortunately there isn't a [legal] way to fix this.

  • Movie Rental via IPAD ios 4.2: why  do I have to download the movie?

    Hi folks,
    I read renting a movie running ios 4.2 in IPAD would mean:
    - Rent and watch (no more download, cause renting and downloading was possible before)
    What do I have to do to rent a movie in ITUNES on IPAD or IPHONE and watching it IMMEDIATELLY? No download - is it possible?
    Thanx
    Stephan

    Could you mean transferring a rental bought on an Ipad to a computer? From the following:
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

  • Why do I have three of every file when I search in finder?

    When I open finder I see three of every file.  I don't  remember seeing this until recently.  Are these duplicates and, if so, how can I delete them without going to every file name?

    Are you searching in Finder or using Spotlight?  If using spotlight then it's probably indexing both your system disk and some backup disks thus producing multiple hits.

  • Why do I have to download every time? I need it in order to open strayer university's home page!

    In order for me to open strayer university's home page, I have to down load firefox. Can I keep it as a home page or something so that I don't have to redownload again.

    I limit on how to gift money has no correlation to the player being bad. Ipods remain the most user friendly devices available. I looked at most before purchasing one myself.
    Don't know what the issue is with getting a gift card at a store. I have always made iTunes purchases from a balance created by entering the cards. That way I keep my spending down to what I can afford instead of charging.

  • Why do I have to restore every time I want to sync?

    Apple,
    I am SO frustrated.  This has been going on for YEARS at this point.  Every single time I download a new album of music and want to sync it to my iphone, it simply does not work.  It says the sync is complete, it shows all the tracks with a grey dotted circle next to them, and they NEVER sync to my phone.
    There is plenty of space on the phone.
    The only way I can get it to work is to completely restore my iPhone to NEW every time I want to sync a new album which is absolutely ridiculous.  Please help.
    Cheers,
    Kyle

    Firefox isnt even available for the iOS platform, so this question is not related to Firefox.
