[QUOTE="NanoBite, post: 299358, member: 13565"] The thing to watch out for is that while iTunes places all files which are duped into a seperate list, they are all just aliases and it's easy to mistakenly delete the active alias and keep the dead alias. I take great care when it comes to deleting dupes, I click on each dupe to determine if iTunes still has an active link to that song or if it'll put an exclamation mark next to it. Also I have "All Along The Watchtower" by Bob Dylan & Jimmy Hendrix. I also have several other songs with like titles so it's a bit of a minefield when it comes to cleaning out duplicates and one job I insist I do myself. [/QUOTE]
