ITunes :: Deleting Duplicates - How To Restore Deleted Songs

Jan 7, 2011

I have an iPod, but I just got a droid mobile phone, and I want to use them both for music. In order to get my "protected" songs purchased from the iTunes store on to the phone I have burned them on to cds and imported them as MP3s into iTunes. So now I've got over 100 duplicate songs (protected and mp3), and I want to delete the protected versions so that the remaining mp3 versions will sync with both my iPod and my droid phone.

If I delete these protected (purchased) songs from the library, will they remain in the iTunes Music folder on my pc or will they be completely removed from my hard drive, too?

Then, if they are completely deleted from my pc, is there any way to recover these deleted purchased songs if I ever wanted to in the future?

ITunes :: Converting To MP3 / What Happens To Duplicates

Jun 16, 2012

I have just discovered much to my delight - that I can burn my music files as MP3 format. Obviously I have had to chanage the preferences and some items I have had to re import - but with existing files I have had to create an MP3 file from the existing file - which creates a duplicate.I can see which are which by listing KIND is there an easier way to delete the original AAC file? I really don't want to have too many (as I have too many already) music files.I have tried searching for the duplicates under finder but only the new file is showing? So far I am using a playlist to create MP3 and I imagine that then clearing the playlist and recreating playlist - list by kind and slect all AAC to either deselct or delete.

Applications :: Removing Duplicates In ITunes?

Jan 25, 2009

So I know about the actual menu item in iTunes, but I'd like to know if there was a way to only remove true duplicates, not the same song on a different album. Like I there is one song from a particular artist that is on 3 different albums, is there any way to have all three songs read from only one file in the HDD? That way, the song would be a part of every album, but it wouldn't take up my HDD space. I could probably do this manually by deleting those other two files, and then "locating" them when iTunes can't find it, but this would take forever. So is there any app that does such a thing? Or am I dreaming?

Applications :: Itunes Regarding Importing And Duplicates?

Jul 29, 2010

my library has some issues in that it does not register all of my songs in itunes

I know this as when I copied my entire folder to my macbook (minus the library and .xml files) I have a few hundred more songs than I do on my desktop

However, since I did not have the .xml and library folder carry over, I lost all my playcounts, playlists, dates, etc that I like to have.

Is there any way I can reimport my entire library and only add the songs that are not "seen" by itunes at the moment? FWIW, I have thousands of song files and I do not want to manually search for which ones show up in my mb library but not my desktops

I gave my daughter a DVD with a number of Albums on it in mp3 format. When she imported them into iTunes on her MacBook(Intel, 10.4.11, iTunes v8) some of the tracks were duplicated.

When her flatmate imported them into iTunes on her PC, every track was duplicated.

Any ideas as to why this should happen and how to stop it?

Applications :: Few ITunes Cover Flow/music Duplicates?

Jan 31, 2009

Okay, so for two of my albums (both by the same artist) there are three pictures of each album as if they are each their own album. Every song is tagged the exact same, nothing's different, artist name and album name are the same throughout. Screenshot attached. I've tried clearing album art, deleting and reimporting, nothing seems to fix this.

Also, on that same album, half the songs don't play on my iPhone/iPod. They play perfectly fine on my Mac, and they are encoded the same as all of my other songs, but when I go to play them on my iPhone, the song never starts. Nothing freezes, the song just never plays. I have to restart the iPod app for any other song to play. I've tried restarts, restores, firmware upgrades, nothing. This problem has existed since 1.1.4. Why?

Applications :: Itunes Showing Duplicates In Cover Flow?

Apr 3, 2010

So I just did a clean install of XP on my laptop, downloaded the latest version of iTunes, and re-imported my music library from my external drive. Suddenly, random albums are showing multiple album art on Cover Flow. I'm sorting cover flow by "Album Artist", I've checked the "Part of a Compilation" box when appropriate, and made sure the "Sort Album Artist" field is correct.

ITunes :: Eliminating Duplicates In ITunes?

Apr 26, 2010

I could use some advice/help, because I am at my wit's end and pulling my hair out over duplicates in iTunes.

Situation: may partner and I used/use separate PCs and have separate iTunes accounts. When his laptop died and we bought a new one (having backed up his data), I took the opportunity to consolidate all our music into one folder on an external drive. But iTunes is giving me fits. I am ending up with thousands of duplicates.

I tried going through the Show Duplicates function and slowly eliminating all of them, and somehow managed to eliminate all the files.

So - what's the best way to fix this? Can I start from scratch with iTunes? Previous uninstalls haven't fixed this issue on my old computer. Should I go into the music folder on the external drive and manage the songs that way before importing into iTunes? Can I erase my whole library and just re-import (having not erased the files, just from the library in iTunes)?

I'm a big fan of the Apple products I've bought (3 iPods now) but this is frustrating me to no end. Any advice would be welcome!

I'm running iTunes 9.0.3.15.

OS X :: Drag Songs From Playlists Into Different Order / Itunes Unable To Drag Songs

Feb 4, 2009

So over the past few months I have noticed this small bug/glitch in iTunes... and it is very annoying.

I cannot drag songs from playlists into different order. iTunes just doesn't let me drag at all.

I have to quit iTunes, then restart it. It will work for one time, but as soon as I got back to "Library" and then try to go back and edit a playlist, I have to exit iTunes.

Any fix for this?

I have a Macbook with about 5,000 songs on it, all of which are burned from actual hard copies of CDs that I own. Rather than re-burning each CD to my new Windows computer, I would like to see if there's a way to transfer all these songs from Mac to PC using an external hard drive. 

The real question is how can I format my external hard drive to be recognized on both a Macbook running Snow Leopard and a PC running Windows 7?

Applications :: Transfer Songs From ITunes To ITunes?

Dec 27, 2010

I have 2 macs with two completely independent iTunes databases. They are used for differnt purposes and contain different music. I really do not want to merge these two databases.

From time to time I need to selectively transfer some few songs from the one computer to the other one. Is there a clever way I can achieve this? I would like to transfer the files including the metadata.

ITunes :: Songs Being Cut-off?

May 16, 2012

I recently cleaned out my computer and reinstalled all of my applications, photos, videos, and music. Now, some of my songs are being cutoff before the song reaches the end. I suspect this is due to iTunes inaccurately placing gaps between my songs.
