I now have two copies of each song on my computer. An mp3 and a mp4. Which one should I keep?

Hello

Keep both until you can decide if you want only one. The compression ratio and other factors
It will be different.

Good Codec will allow you to play MP4 in Windows Media Player.

Determine if 32 or 64 bits.

Start - type in the search box-> Winver find upstairs and double click on - check version

After that the foregoing, add codec - get these 32 bit if:

  • After you import bookmarks from another computer, I have two copies of each other: How can I delete the copy of 'just '?

  • Just put update - now have several copies of Ps and Lr

    Just to update using the CC application.  I now have two copies of Lr and a copy of the Ps/cc and 2014 Ps/cc.  Should I uninstall one of the Lr copies?  Should I uninstall Ps/cc and keep Ps/cc 2014?

    WDKlein1000, Yes, you can uninstall older versions of Lr & PS CC that you already have the latest versions. So, no need to keep both, unless you want to, for various purposes.

  • After you rename a folder full of files using LR CC, I now have two of each DNG file with consecutive numbers providing unique names!

    After you rename a folder full of .dng and. MOV files using LR CC, I now have two of each file DNG image with consecutive numbers providing unique names. . MOV files are not affected. Activated with "Bridge" and found it said one is one Mac Application, either in the form of windows. I have Lightroom on Mac and Windows PC with local catalogues which are clouds synchronized (but never on at the same time). Could be the cause of this problem? It is possible that differ from the Mac and Windows version catalogs and their creative together via the Cloud technology synchronization can cause this duplication is obvious when all files are renamed by using a number of automatic sequence?

    Yes, my default sort criteria is by file name as my beginning of file names with a reverse date followed by a sequence number. I think at some stage I must have reproduced all the files on the Windows PC and saved with a different range of sequence numbers after the element of date filenames outside of LR. Sometime later I have imported in the Lightroom. When I decided to rename all of them using this naming convention, I discovered the duplication hiding behind different file names. This turns out to be a lesson on the practices of workflow systems.

  • installation of iTunes on Windows 10 many double copies of each song

    When I first installed iTunes on my Windows 7 PC I was told to adjust the following parameters to make sure that all the music files added to the iTunes Library is copied to the folder of my iTunes on the PC

    iTunes > edit > Preferences > tab advanced and then check keep iTunes Media folder organized and copy files to the Media folder when adding to the iTunes library have been selected.

    And that if they were not already selected, select these options, then go to

    iTunes > > file > library > organize library > select consolidate files > OK

    So far so good, it worked a treat on Windows 7

    I got my years re-built PC for facing the windows of 10, which was all the same a Windows 7 upgrade, but a clean virtual install as all programs had to be reinstalled. I had backed up my music and copied this back on the PC before installing iTunes v 12.3.2.35 (64-bit) and proceed as follows, but to my dismay, I discovered that there were 2 or sometimes even 4 copies of each song that took a while to sort manually

    What had I done wrong?

    And what should I do to install iTunes properly with one copy of each song, and to ensure that all files added to the iTunes Music Library is copied to the folder of my iTunes on the new PC?

    It will be more useful to know the correct procedure, so I don't make the same mistake again.

    You must have saved the folder iTunes as a working library, then restored it. No need to add multimedia elements as it would all have been in the library. The approach I recommend is given here: backup your iTunes for Windows with SyncToy library.

    I saw you asking about duplicates before you set about cleaning them I would have offered this: Re: removing duplicate songs he removes ALL the same songs who has saved you some time and effort.

  • How to have two copies of the same program to install on WIndows 7 and on the desktop

    «"" "Dear help forum:»»"»

    I am new to WIndows 7, but just have not found the right research
    How to get my answer from Microsoft/Windows 7 basic knowledge.

    I have two programs. There are two versions of the same program
    ('LACE') One is the version 4.0.1, and the other is Version 4.0.6.

    I wish I had one old continue to run (using a purchased
    Product key which I own and have for years).

    BUT there is a problem. The old and new programs are the
    same 'setup.exe '? Download 124 MB each. There are small but
    many corrections and changes in the new program, I am told, but
    they do not have add up to change the size in MB of the program.

    SO I'm in trouble when I'm trying to download the program, as
    It seems to be in WIndows 7, a small program that removes the
    size of the incoming download and informed me that I can not download
    a new that I have already one of this program is installed in the
    computer!

    He asks me if I want to "Uninstall" the previous version and then replace
    It is with a new one. I can't cancel the old version because she had a
    Product key that was told to me in the instructions that he could
    only be used 'once', to uninstall the program won't help
    me as I won't be able to continue to use this program once again, as the
    registration code could only be used once.

    I have a purchased code new, different program version 4.0.6.

    Is this a problem with WIndows 7? I already called/sent the
    company and they have no help and no solution for how these two programs
    are to run on the same computer at the same time.

    Can you please help me and provide instructions on how I load
    This program of "LACE" most recent second size 124 MB and even download
    name in the computer (replacing the automated duplicate program
    prevention installer routine), so I can have and use two copies of
    This program on the computer at the same time?

    During the creation of this issue, I had an idea of what will happen if I created a
    second Downloaded Programs folder to contain the program setup.exe inside
    and try the operation or the opening of this place. He did not like
    the program checked the computer for the first copies of the
    LACE and identified, he was always present in the computer and asked
    Once again if I wanted to remove it.

    Thank you very much!

    If this program is not designed for the execution of the two copies on a single installation of Windows, then you simply can't do.  No ifs, ANDS or goals.  You have never been able to do with any version of Windows, and apparently the creators of this program thinks there is no reason to do so, then you'll just have to choose one version or another.  I'm not familiar with the lace, but more recent versions programs usually include most of the older features while adding the most recent.  They sometimes make us learn new ways of doing things that make us less happy, but I'm afraid that's life in the world of computing.

    That said, I must mention that there may be alternatives that you might continue even if they are less obvious than what you suggested.  If you have the professional version or full edition of Windows, you can get XP mode free you can start Windows 7.  It normally happens in 15 to 30 seconds and you could install and run another version of your program under that.  If you do not either of these versions, you can invest in the Anytime Upgrade and do it available.  Upgrade Home Premium to professional is $ 90.

    The other alternative would be a dual-boot configuration where you could have two versions of Windows in separate partitions, so when you start your computer, you can select the one with the version of your program you want.  I think that the choice of the XP mode would be preferable because it would be so much easier to use, but these two options are available, if you want to continue.

    Good luck.

    From your post it seems that you have a few cases of Installer.app running on your Mac.  You have installed previously, and you still see the installers running on your Dock?  If so, simply complete the installation process or to leave the installers.  If not, then let's go and just restart your computer in safe mode and restart normally to see if the problem persists:

  • Firefox open two copies of each time, one with my tabs and the other without, and if I close one, both close.

    Since a few days ago, whenever I open Firefox it opens two copies. Got my tabs from the previous session and the other only my home page. If I close is exemplary, the other closes as well. How can I get rid of the second copy?

    I am running version 27.0.1 in Windows 7 on a 64-bit operating system.

    Tried to delete the attributes read-only files that the above suggested. There is no additional file numbered as he said, there might be, however. Doesn't seem to help until I closed the second copy with the ability to close all tabs. This simple action closed just a single copy and left me with one that I still wanted to open. I closed and reopened, and always gave me one copy, so I guess it's all fixed.
