Trying to figure out how to organize my music better because i double synced all my music and have duplicates

You can use the Rename, Move, and Copy files tool to reorganize your music on disk in very flexible ways. RM&C is a big powerful too that can do a lot of things. It might seem kind of intimidating at first due to it's various modes of operation. I promise you it's not that hard to use once you get the hang of it. Here's the wiki entry on it:

Of course that wiki entry itself is a LOT of information. So here's something concrete for you to look at. It's an example of how to use RM&C to organize by Artist, Album, and Disc #:

OK I quickly read over the rename move and copy stuff...
I will have to read it better soon but I can guarantee you I wont be trying to figure all that out...
I don't have a big problem just I have a lot of duplicates of songs that I mistakenly put on my pono handheld.
When I first got it I assumed it was like Itunes.... NOT and clicked sync when I had already synced it. Not sure if I am the only one or if many people made that mistake...
I called and believe was explained why and understand and agree I don't want the software to decide what is a duplicate or not because there could be different versions of songs, etc.
The thing is I have to compare what is in my E drive and my G drive and I am thinking that it would be good if I could see both libraries together and in alphabetical order the same way by either artist name or album name.
I am not sure I want to mess with it at all because although I believe I am getting a good backup automatically of my computer and all my music each night, I am not sure yet and I dont wanna take any chance of losing all my albums I already ripped into my music library and what I bought in hi rez
I read about this subject some more and know there is a good reason that this is not so user friendly and so I am not complaining but I am a bit frustrated with the process.
Overall though, it is easy for me if I don't like a particular album or song I can easily delete it just like if I want to add a new album so I am leaving it be! Thanks Brian if you have any easy advice for me after reading this let me know

It sounds like maybe I didn't understand the problem. I thought you wanted to rename files on disk. I think you just want to change how PMW shows them sorted on screen.
I'm getting a bit confused because you're asking for several different things at once. Let's start with the sorting. Please post a screen shot which shows the sorting behavior you see and we'll see if we can get that part fixed.

The Pono Player has internal memory and a slot for a MicroSD card. These show up as 2 drives on the PC. It sounds like you synced your music to both drives in which case it will show up twice on the Pono Player. You can easily verify this by shutting down the Pono Player and removing the MicroSD card. If the music now only shows up once, that confirms that this was the issue.
