			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is already built in function in iTunes to show duplicate songs. Just select <strong>File -&gt; Display Duplicates</strong> from menu. It will display songs with the same name and artist.</p>
<p><a href="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/filedisplayduplicates.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-7" title="filedisplayduplicates" src="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/filedisplayduplicates.jpg" alt="" width="172" height="250" /><br />
</a></p>
<p>You can also display exact duplicates, to do this <strong>hold Shift</strong> then click <strong>File -&gt; Display Exact Duplicates</strong>. It will display songs with the same name, artist and album.</p>
<p><a href="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/fded.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8" title="fded" src="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/fded.jpg" alt="" width="168" height="250" /></a></p>
<p>The next task is unchecking the songs that you want to keep because by default iTunes checks them all. Then select <strong>Edit -&gt; Delete</strong> from menu.</p>
<p>Pretty straightforward isn&#8217;t it, but imagine if you have hundreds or thousand duplicates in your library, and you have to unchecking one by one ! or if you want to display duplicates which have same name, artist, album and time, iTunes couldn&#8217;t do that.</p>
<h2>Automatically find and delete duplicates in iTunes</h2>
<p>Let me introduce you iDeduper (<a href="http://www.ideduper.com">http://www.ideduper.com</a>) and for Mac, iMDeduper (<a href="http://www.imdeduper.com">http://www.imdeduper.com</a>).  iDeduper is a software to delete duplicates in iTunes fast.</p>
<p>The first step is download it from the link above and then install and open it. Next click <strong>Search</strong> from menu.</p>
<p><a href="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/ideduper1.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10" title="ideduper1" src="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/ideduper1.png" alt="" width="200" height="197" /></a></p>
<p>As you can see, we can customize which tag to compared to find duplicates. Click Ok. It will search for duplicates based on criteria you set and display them.</p>
<p><a href="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/mainwindowscreenshot.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-11" title="mainwindowscreenshot" src="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/mainwindowscreenshot.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="401" /><br />
</a></p>
<p>Next click <strong>Auto Mark</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/ideduper2.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12" title="ideduper2" src="http://findduplicatefiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/ideduper2.png" alt="" width="200" height="245" /></a></p>
<p>We can select what method to automatically marking / checking the duplicates. There are by bitrate, time,  size, artwork, date added, rating, play count,  type and folder. And the most important feature is <strong>Mark all except one </strong>which will mark all but one song on each duplicate group. Select the method you want and click <strong>OK</strong>.</p>
<p>The last step is click <strong>Delete</strong> from menu. There is an option whether you want to also delete associated file. And done ! your iTunes library is clean from duplicates now!</p>
