Thanks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
If you're using a Mac, there are AppleScripts that'll do that. (lemme know if you want the ULR)

I think the Applescript is for within Itunes - not the hard drive.

Oh duh. I reread Jessica's post - yeah, if iTunes doesn't know about the dupes then the script won't work.
Need more coffee....

Ooh - here's an AppleScript that might work:
List Music Folder Files Not Added v2.0
This script recursively searches user-selected folders for files not added to iTunes and creates a text file listing their file paths. Optionally, this text file can be saved as a M3U file and imported by iTunes to add the found files. Requires Mac OS 10.4 or better.
I guess you could use the text file listing to create a bunch of delete commands.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have a really annoying problem (Finder's crashing) that apparently can only be fixed by an Archive and Install.
For which you need to *not* have the upgrade discs, but need the originals. Needless to whine, I only have the upgrades.
Is it unseemly to ask to borrow the Tiger discs for this fix?

Compassionately intolerant
Anybody know where I can find a download of Flash 9? Somehow, mine got corrupted. hulu, et al, worked yesterday, today it does not. I can't upgrade to Flash 10 on this pokey little 'puter.
I've crawled all over adobe, macupdate and version tracker.
This feels like such a simple thing, and yet, I'm failing. And flailing.

Adobe has issued a security update to v9. [link] Work is all atwitter, so figured it is worth mentioning.
Of course, I think I got the old one just a few days ago. Figures.
