Deleting Doubles in iTunes

[zap2]

If there a quick way to do it? I know i will need a 3rd party App to do it

That functionality exists in iTunes v6. Open iTunes and select the Library or a playlist. Edit>Show Duplicate Songs.

Alternatively, a third-party app:

I wanted an App to delete them not let me see them(thats what iTunes Does)

and the App is shareware and only lets be delete 3


does anyone have a FreeWare one?

Is it really that hard to click on all the ones (while holding down cmd) you want to delete from the doubles list and then hit delete once at the end?

** EDIT **

You could try this script (http://freespace.virgin.net/hamish.sanderson/appscript_examples/iTunes_remove_duplicates.html)

It would be a useful app, but deleting dupe tracks manually is probably the safest/most effective way of doing it. Just hold down the apple key and select away.

yes it about 1400 songs, so an app to do it would rock

and its not my main iTunes so if i screwed up my iTunes it would not be a big deal

script above is not running correctly

That's a lot of duplicates.:eek: Still looking :)

**EDIT**
Maybe try this page (http://www.dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/duplicates.php). It was too long for me to keep my attention to read the whole thing, hopefully you'll find a quick way there

You can batch delete dups under iTunes and on the shareware proggy I posted. Did you investigate or just hit two buttons and then post a snappy comment?
