I have wanted to de-duplicate this library for some time, as well as increase the quality of the tracks since storage is so much cheaper these days. I have a library consisting of about 15,000 songs, almost all of which are mp3s of various quality ranging from 96kb to 192kb. Note that this does not apply to EVERY file in her library, only to those files that overlap between her library and mind, and that were matched by iTunes. How can I get her library, to changes its references from the. iTunes will allow me to manually re-link each file one by one, but cannot automatically find any others. Unfortunately this has resulted in a large number of broken file links in her playlists, because the old file reference was. m4a files rather than the various qualities of. ![]() ![]() I have used iTunes Match to replace about 5,000 of the songs in my library, with 256kb AAC. My library and her library are different, but there is a fair amount of song overlap between the two. We have two different iTunes library files, both stored on the same local network server (another Mac) as the music files themselves. I am not willing to re-rip all the songs in my library, and in many cases I can't anymore anyway as I've let the physical CDs slip into oblivion over the years as I never used them.The library and all music is located on another Mac on the local network (so it is not indexed by spotlight and no spotlight-based applescript solution will work).I am not looking for a way to convert file formats.A few points before I get into my question/issue:
