How to update a song on my iPod without creating duplicates?
I just got a new computer. On my old computer if I changed something about a song in iTunes (such as the album or the track number) I could drag the song over to my iPod and it would update the information. On my new computer when I try to do this instead of updating the song it adds a new copy of the song so I have to go and delete one of them, which can be time consuming if I update more than one song at once, plus it erases the rating for the song and the plays. I have the same version of iTunes on both computers. Is there a setting or something I need to change to prevent a second copy of the same song being added?
Thanks!

iTunes is a fail, just make sure your itunes library doesn't have any songs that are already on your iPod copied into your itunes library, I understand your frustration, blame apple.

Instead of editing the song information in your iTunes library, connect your iPod to the computer and open up iTunes. Then select your iPod so that the music you have on it is being displayed. Instead of the content in your iTunes library. Edit the information there instead of in the library. That way you don't have to edit then drag and drop.

Well, even if that creates a duplicate file there's a tool I know which will be really helpful- Clone Files Checker.
