How do I import pictures without getting all the duplicates?

How do I import photos from an external harddrive without getting all the duplicates on my Macbook pro? is there a program to download for that ?

Go in the web and check out 'dupeGuru'. It's not free but might be just the ticket for you.

I would like to transefer some pictures from the Mac to the Iphone. How do i do this without losing all the pictures on the iphone through Synching?

The options in itunes seem quite limited. For instance, I have culled the pictures on the iphone down to a nice 250 or so pics i dont want to lose. But when I try to add another selected folder through itunes it wants to erase all the pictures on the iphone I have. I could create a folder out of all the pic i have on it now and then select that as well when Synching but that means any new pictures i like in the future won't be saved either if i wish to add more from the compuiter through synching.
How do i add a folder of pictures from itunes without affecting the pictures on the camera roll. This doesnt seem to be an issue when adding music manually to an ipod for instance. Wheres the openness of the system to hand-pick and create your own scenario?
Thanks for the help...
Pic-ed off.

Are they in iPhoto?
Some possibilities:
iPhoto Sharing:
IEnable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and move to the other machine. There, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running on both machines for this to work.
Use iPhoto Library Manager
Export from one Library and copy to the other mchine and import there

How do I sync iPad and iPhone without getting all the iPad apps on the phone

iPhone 4 tried to download all the iPad apps when syncing today. But of course overloaded the phones capacity.
After deleting from the phone and syncing they were all reaload to the phone again.
After disconnecting, went into iTunes, selected iPhone and when I selected one app to delete I got the message that this app would then be deleted off all devices. I would have thought that the iPad and iPhone options at the top of itunes window would highlight apps for each device especially as the two lists are not the same.How do I keep iPads apps on the iPad And iPhone apps on the iPhone?
Help please

Connect one device to iTunes.
Select what is desired to sync and sync.
Eject the device.
Connect second device to iTunes.
Select what is desired to sync and sync.
iTunes will remember what to sync to each device based on the device name/id.
Be certain to uncheck the option to automatically sync new apps with each device connected.

How did I get all the duplicates in my iTunes and how do i get rid of them!!

1000 duplicates in itunes. How do I fix that?
...and how did it happen.?

Uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes does not create duplicates.
Only the user importing content multiple times creates duplicates.
Delete the duplicates and stop importing the same content multiple times.

How to sinc two computers and get all the files from both

Not sure if this is the right forum for the issue, but... I have a iMac G5 and a MacBook, and I use one or the other for my work. That way I get part of my work on one, and other part on the other Mac. Now, I would like to sinc both of them, so that I have all the files from iMac on the MB, vice versa. I know that I could go slowly and use an external hard drive, copy files from one computer, save on another, but is there any handier and faster way to do it?
Thanks

How to sync my iPad without copying all the apps to my computer? help!!!

This is my first time on sync-ing my iPad. I tried to copy some pdf and music from my computer to my iPad; but apparently once I sync it, I will loose all other pdf I previously had on the iPad.
It will also copy all the apps that I have to my computer. I mean, I only want to put some ebook and music to the iPad. And I don't want to waste more than 10G on my computer just for iPad apps. What should I do? Can I sync it without copying the apps to my computer? Help Thanks
PS. I am using window vista to sync it, thanks to apple that does not allow my OS X 10.4 to sync my ipad.

The apps are being transferred where? If being transferred, there is one place and one place only where the apps can be transferred and that is your iTunes library.
Do you have Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes?
None of the apps on your iPad are available when selecting Apps under Library in the iTunes source list?

We have down loaded latest software for the ipod touch and now can't open up any Apps previously held on the Ipod touch. please advise how we can restore this without losing all the apps??

You can transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
You can transfer other stuff by using the third-part programs discussed in this previous discussion:
Best iPod to PC
If you previously synced to another computer and do not have the backup files you will lose your app data. You will have to restore to factory defaults/new iPod and then sync to the new computer.

Setfilter to display all the duplicate rows pb7

Friends,
my version is powerbuilder 7.
i am checking the duplicate rows in the datawindow before inserting.
in a button click event...i have the below code
dw_master.SetSort ("rollno A")
dw_master.Sort()
dw_master.SetFilter("rollno = rollno[-1]")
dw_master.Filter()
if dw_master.RowCount() > 0 then
MessageBox('Duplicate Rows','Check the Duplicate Roll numbers',StopSign!,OK!)
Return 1
end if
//no dups, so clear the filter and do the update...
dw_master.SetFilter ("")
dw_master.Filter()
i have 2 duplicate rows...but this setfilter is displaying only one row....
if it displays all the duplicate rows then it will be very useful for me...
how can i modify this code to get all the duplicate rows in this datawindow before inserting?
thanks

Instead of a filter you could do this...
boolean lb_dupe_found=false
long ll_row, ll_rowcount
string ls_val1, ls_val2
ll_rowcount = dw_1.rowcount()
for ll_row = 2 to ll_rowcount
ls_val1 = dw_1.getitemstring(ll_row, 'col1')
ls_val2 = dw_1.getitemstring(ll_row -1, 'col1')
if ls_val1 = ls_val2 then
// duplicate
lb_dupe_found = true
exit
end if
next
if lb_dupe_found then
messagebox('DUPE', 'Houston we have a problem!')
else
messagebox('SAVE', 'Data valid for saving')
end if

How do I get my purchased movies from iTunes to show in my Library without storing all the GBs on my hard drive? [I want to show the Cloud Purchases.]

Hey Hey!
Running OSX 10.9.4 and iTunes 11.3
I am pretty sure that this has been addressed somewhere, but I could not find it - so thanks up front!!!
How do I get my purchased movies from iTunes to show in my iTunes Library without storing all the GBs on my hard drive? I want to show the Cloud Purchases without having hundreds of GBs taking up my HD space.
Thanks!

Deborah,
You cannot import contacts from your Nano to your PC via iTunes. The syncing process is only one way. However, if you enable disk mode on your iPod, open it up in a Windows Explorer window, you should see a Contacts folder. From there you can copy them back over to your PC.
Even though this article is talking about adding contacts to the PC, it should walk you through some of the steps mentioned above.

My old computer crashed and i just purchased a new laptop. How do i get my library on my new computer without erasing all the songs on my ipod?

?

If ALL your music is on the iPod and it's ALL iTunes purchased content, you log into iTunes with your account on th enew machine and reverse sycn the music back.
If the music is from cd's and other sources (not iTunes files) then ask over at iLounge what third party solution currently works. (can't recommond it here)
I have some HUGE instructions here how to get your music off the old comptuer too:
Recovery options:
A: If Windows isn't booting:
You need to boot the computer from a "recovery disk or USB" that has a operating system on it and a graphical user interface to transfer files from your boot drive to a external drive.
I suggest using the Easy USB Installer to install Ubuntu 10.10 onto a 2-4 GB USB key.
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
or
burn a ISO of Ubuntu 10.10 or PartedMagic to a cd-r with ImgBurn or Win 7 right click and burn
You can use Disk Utility in OS X to select the ISO and burn to cd/dvd as well.
Once you have it installed, consult this page for your BIOS boot key to hold to get into the BIOS.
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/a/biosaccess_pc.htm
Plug the USB into the back (if possible) of the computer, connect the external drive and enter the BIOS, set the USB (or CD) as first boot and SAVE.
Boot off the USB/CD and "Try Ubuntu/Run from disk" DON'T INSTALL. (Parted Magic loads into RAM and ejects CD)
Once in, go under the menu Places > Computer and transfer your files to the external drive just like you would in Windows, drag and drop.
(If using Parted Magic double click on the Mount Drive left icon twice, use the two GUI windows to transfer files to external drive, unmount drives, log out/quit in the lower left corner menu option)
B: If the computer hardware isn't working, but the drive might still work:
You'll have to remove the power cord and manually extract the hard drive. This might result in some damage.
There is a powered IDE/SATA to USB adapter for sale online for $20 that you can take that internal hard drive and use it like a external drive to access your files from another Windows machine.
C: If your iTunes content is deleted...
It might be recoverable if it hasn't been overwritten yet by fresh data. Undelete software works by reading the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, not what the OS says.
You need to use undelete software pre-installed before the iTunes content was deleted, or while on a bootable cd/USB and a external drive to transfer the recovered files.
You can also install undelete type software on a new machine and USE STEP B above to "undelete" the files and recover them directly to the new computer.
You can't install undelete software or recover files to the same drive your attempting to recover from or it overwrites the deleted data.
D: If the hard drive doesn't work and...
The data isn't worth spending $2000-$3000 in a ATTEMPT at platter dissection recovery, then your finished
If the data on the drive was encrypted, data recovery efforts may be futile, unless it's a encypted file and you transfer it successfuly and have the password to de-crypt it.
E: If you have a "iDevice" with any content
It can be synced back into iTunes, check at iLounge what third party software works reliably now and for your version.
(Once you log into your iTunes account, you can sync ONLY iTunes purchased content back from a iDevice)
Third party software can recover just about all the items on a iDevice, regardless of it's origin. (can't recommend such software here)
F: If any of the above is too hard, or the data is of "critical importance"
Then seek professional computer or forensic level recovery services.
Get help from someone who has done this sort of thing repeatly and can almost guaranty 100% results.
There is Linux software that can "rip" all data off a iOS device if that level of attention is needed, seek a professional service.
Hope this helps in your data recovery efforts.
Please, backup your data, it's the only thing us IT professionals can't recover.

Our family has one apple account, but several devices linked to it. How do I sync my device (Ipad) without getting all my 11 year old daughter's apps on it?

I need help syncing my Ipad. Our family uses one apple account for multiple devices... how do I sync my ipad without getting all my daughters apps? How do I know which of my apps need to be synced to the computer?

Simply select only the apps that you want to sync to your iPad and then sync. You can control what syncs to the iPad. You may be best served by turning off auto sync.
Launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says - Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. Click OK.
Connect your iPad to the computer.
Launch iTunes
Click on the iPad name on the left side under the Devices heading.
Click on the Apps Tab in the iTunes window on the right.
Click on only the apps that you want to sync in the list of apps under the Sync Apps heading.
Make sure that the Sync Apps heading is checked.
Click on Apply in the lower corner of iTunes.
