Alert when adding to playlist duplicate songs?

I build my playlists over time based on the music I hear - either through my own music or songs that I hear while listening to playlists or radio on music from Apple.  Sometimes I'll see my playlist and find songs that are duplicates of each other.  Is there a setting for iTunes or Apple music to alert me when I try to do.  I think that Spotify had such a feature.

My iTunes offers this warning.  I'm actually not aware that it can be turned on or off.  But if you don't get it, try to go to Preferences > advanced and click "Reset all warnings of the dialog box."  Bring this back?

  • Downloaded songs won't save for offline when added to Playlist in iOS 9.2

    Since the upgrade to iOS 9.2, I noticed that songs that have been downloaded from your music library to iCloud (i.e. songs is not not in the catalog of Apple) are not downloaded in playlists set to be saved for offline use. All of the songs listed in the catalog of Apple are downloaded very well - it's only these obscure titles that have been downloaded from your library. Download these songs directly works fine, but not when they are part of a selection that is set for offline use.

    Anyone else having this problem?

  • How to store the original and to remove some duplicate songs in iTunes on a PC Win7, which took place after iTunes to scan for music during a re - install?

    How to store the original and to remove some duplicate songs in iTunes on a PC Win7, which took place after iTunes to scan for music during a re - install?

    I recently had to format my hard drive and reinstall iTunes 12.3.2.35 on my Win7 PC. As part of the re - install iTunes, I clicked on the button scan for music.  This has created duplicates several of my songs.  I deleted then the duplicate songs from iTunes, but when I went to play a few songs a pop-up said "the song would not be because the original could not be found.  You want to locate? "When I tried to locate the song it is not found, but when I pulled the songs out of the trash they could be found.

    How can I keep the original and remove any duplicate songs in iTunes on PC Win7 which took place after iTunes to scan for music during a re - install?

    iTunes can create duplicates if the same content is added several times from outside the media folder when it is about to make copies of everything that is added to the library, or is added from an external drive that hosts the press kit that was disconnected during the launch of iTunes.

    Official notice of Apple on the duplicates is here: find and remove duplicates in your iTunes library. This is a manual process and article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as the lost coast and membership of playlist, or sometimes the same file can be represented by multiple entries in the library as well as a removal and recycling the file will break all the others.

    Use MAJ > display > show items to reproduce exactly to display the duplicates because it is normally a selection more useful. You must manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sort the list by Date added can make easier select appropriate tracks, but it works better when executed immediately after the dupes were created.  If you have several entries in iTunes connected to a same file on the disk hard then don't not send to trash.

    Use my DeDuper script (Windows only) If you are not sure, do not want to do it by hand, or want to maintain ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this background thread , this post for detailed instructions and Please take note of the warning to back up your library before deduping.

    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to temporarily view or CTRL + B to keep displayed.)

    The latest version of the script can put away the dead links as long as there is at least a double live to merge his stats and membership of the playlist and must deal wisely when the same file has been added through multiple paths.

  • "Adding to playlist itunes purchase will download a copy on your computer.

    What it means?  (Long story) I've recently updated to El Capitan 10.11.3 and also iTunes 12.3.2.35.  I have no game because it caused many problems for me.  I was happy to see 'Music' as a playlist that shows everything in iTunes is in this version.  The previous version I was using on OS 10.6.8 had that.

    Looking at the list of reading music I noticed that I had a duplicate song.  We were already in one of my playlists where it belongs, and I could click "Show in Finder."  The other version was not in a playlist and I can't "show in Finder".  The quality of this version is better that the copy that I have on my computer so I decided to put the other in the trash and move the best copy in the playlist where the other was.  But when I tried I get this.

    "Adding to playlist itunes purchase will download a copy on your computer.

    I guess it is a purchased version, cloud or something and isn't really on my computer, Yes?  As far as I know, I don't have Apple cloud past.  I love my music real files on my computer and to be able to move them and organize them however and when I want to.  I don't want some music files mysterious that I may, or may not be able to listen to a certain point depending on what service I use, or a file that I need to download a copy whenever I want to put it in a playlist.  In addition, I don't want or need two copies of any song even if it's one I want, especially if I can't remove it if I want.

    What happens here?  I've stuck with iTunes all these years, but it seems that whenever I update something is even worse... or am I just stupid for not getting it?

    Okay what is happening with iTunes?  All my old playlists are gone and then this message "Add to itunes playlist purchase will download a copy on your computer" I just want to have playlists for my different moods, activities, etc..

    I burned a CD of music seems to have disappeared.

    The difficulty of this shit!

    No, my music using Apple music or iTunes game. You should be able to access your media purchased on the device without using the playlists, or playlists on your Mac when iTunes is running via the use of computers on the Apple TV.

  • Windows Media Player adding music/Playlist problems like reading list will not be updated

    OK, so for some strange reason don't let not my WMP add me any music library. My music is in my music folder and when I click on individual songs they will open in the POM, but they will not remain in the library.

    In addition, it doesn't let me update the playlists, I already have. In order for me to add to the playlist, I must open the play list, search for the song already in my library, add to playlist and save it like that.  (This means I can't create a new playlist). I tried right click and add to the playlist, but it does not work. In addition, I can't open the playlist to see the songs already in it. I can right click and play the playlist, which shows me what songs are in in the 'Now Playing' list, but it won't let me see without playing.

    Personally I think that it could have been a buggy update, considering I've had this computer for months, and it has worked so far.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    How is it going? A member of the team has scored this as replied, but I undercover until you have had a chance to update...

  • How can I prevent Windows Media Player rebuilds with duplicate songs, that I deleted?

    I moved my music files in Windows Media player for this computer with a 1 TB harddrive that I use just for storing music on. When I moved the music files from the computer Windows XP first putting them on a hard drive for the copy and paste and then transfer them to the hard drive of my M:\ the drive on this computer, many duplicates were transferred. I want to remove duplicates. I did this by pressing Ctrl and pointing out the duplicates and then pressing DELETE, and they are then deleted. But after that, it is a small blue arrow that goes down in the lower-right corner of Windows Media player from up and said "Equalization of the Volume" followed by the names of the songs, that is to say several times. M:\.... "For Windows Media player media recovery and rebuild as if it was before I deleted the duplicate songs? I want to also all my songs to be the mp3 type and some are mp4, so how do I fix all the songs to make them of type mp3. Thanks for any help.

    MP4 is usually a video file, I honestly didn't even know MP4 pourrait be used for audio, but this is beyond my skills.  I know that to convert files types, you will need to download a conversion program, Microsoft is no not any program that can do this.

    As for the deleted files that appears, open the Organize menu at the top of the media player, select 'manage libraries' and make sure that it is scanning the correct files.

    If the correct files are analyzed and double presents itself once again, right click on a song in double and select properties to find its location.  And then delete it from here, rather than media player directly.

  • I cancelled iTunes on a Macbook Air, issued by the school.  All my music is stored/saved on my iMac at home.  If I delete the playlists and songs of the Macbook it will affect my master library?

    I cancelled iTunes on a Macbook Air, issued by the school.  All my music is stored/saved on my iMac at home.  If I delete the playlists and songs of the Macbook it will affect my master library?

    Unless you're 'home sharing', which he does not seem like you are, two libraries (macbook and iMac) are distinct, so a change does not affect the other.  Best way to test would be to remove a few songs you can download easily and see if it changes.  But I don't think it will be a problem.
