i'm collin
hello to all of you who need advice (or perhaps would just like to say hi).

(that's where you say "hi collin!" but you don't have to because it might scare the people around you)

i'm a musician. i play bass, violin, mandolin, keyboards, guitars, drums, harmonica, xylophone, and just about everything else. i also sing lead for my band, the dirty fries, in st. louis, missouri.


my advice may be blunt sometimes, but you all will have to deal with it. i speak the truth, and the truth isn't always pretty.


i'll answer anything, too. as long as it's not something really idiotic like "OMG what color shirt should i wear tonight?!" because i don't answer that kind of crap. i'm a strong believer in there being no stupid questions, but honestly, those are not the sort of questions that should be posted on this website. plain and simple.


ask away
-collin



p.s. - anyone wondering where the numbers/letters in my username come from: they're the model number of my acoustic bass guitar.

advice

ok so to make a long story short i had to preform an archive n install (macpro leopard problem)and when i tried putting my music back into itunes it duplicated (sometimes tripled) my music and i have 2gb worth of unnecessary music... and i don't just mean it's a duplicate on itunes... its a duplicate of the actual mp3 file in my music folder.... i tried the itunes option but it ended up reduplicating everything again.... i even tried uninstalling it and still the problem remains! helpppp

just a note:

itunes does work on all computers. . . that was just a glitch. . . and never, EVER use limewire. it will screw up your computer . . plus its illegal.

advice:

the only thing to really do is go through it and delete all of the things you don't need. it should ask you "keep the file?" and just select "no" and "don't ask me again"

then it'll send it all to the trash.


it'll take you a while, but that's about all you can do.

(Rating: 5) Though limewire itself is not illegal downloading music without a license is. In any case i don't use it... but thanks for the tip; i guess the most effective way is the hard way... i actually went though all my stuff and got rid of the duplicates.... hurrah! :)
