Easily clean up an iTunes library
Authored by: chabig on Jul 21, '03 12:01:24PM

As another person said, I just do all of this within iTunes.

But if you have music outside the iTunes folder, or scattered in several places I still think there is an easier way.

After you're done deleting music, go to iTunes and clear the entire library (without trashing the associated files). Then just "Add to Library" the folders where your music resides.

Yes, but doesn't that mess with the dates of when things were added and whatnot? I always have a smart list of recently added songs, and doing this would just cause my entire library to just appear there.

My list really needs cleaning up, and while I've only got about 2000 MP3s, I don't want to risk losing my ratings, play counts, album art, et cetera.
