I would like to get help deleting duplicated songs, I do not know how they got their in the first place.
Windows 7
Some how I got duplicates of my library on iTunes and to get rid of all the new duplicates I went to the library I looked for the date the new duplicate songs were added to the library then I went to columns and where you see Artist, song,
bit rate, time, etc and added 'date added' once that's done click on the box enclosing 'date added' and you will see all songs added by date. Proceed to the last one of the songs with that date press command to highlight it then scroll all the way to the first song and press 'shift' to highlight all of the songs added on that date then simply press delete.
you will be asked if you want to delete these songs...That's it.
Perhaps WSH isn't installed. See http://www.ehow.co.uk/how_7432762_install-windows-script-host.html.

Its working! Great script Turing, congratulations!
You're welcome. 🙂

Thanks for replying. The Delete option is on the right click menu yes. Do you think it could have anything related to being windows instead of mac?

But that only deletes files in the file system. It does not delete them from iTunes.
Gemini will cost you ten bucks. But in my experience it's been worth it--on both of my machines. It's fast, colorful, efficient, accurate--and it has a safety feature.
I have a problem with the deduper script, it has an error message that comes up saying "activeX component can't create object: 'iTunes.Application'
code: 800AO1AD
Line: 595
Char: 3
You may need to perform a repair of the iTunes installation in order to register the automation object. What version of Windows are you running?
