[QUOTE="Brown Study, post: 393757, member: 3889"] If you have two music files and one is in the iTunes music folder, its [i]probably[/i] safe to delete the other. But I can't see your setup to be absolutely certain. If you zip the song [i]not[/i] in the iTunes folder, but iTunes can still play the song, you'd know for sure. If all the files not in the iTunes folder are in a single other folder, zip the entire other folder and see what happens with iTunes when you click songs in the playlist. You could also run a search for .mp3, for example, and see how many duplicates show up. I'm not sure, though, whether all the .mp3 suffixes must be set to visible in their Get Infos. (I'm working in OS 9 at the moment and can't check that.) [/QUOTE]
