What to do with duplicates on my computer?

I'm copying lots of folders of images from one computer to another and lots of these folders have duplicate images inside them, so when I import the new folders those duplicates do not come in. This keeps my Lightroom Catalog nice and neat, however, I now have all of these duplicates taking up space on my computer. Just curious how you deal with this? Do you just leave them alone and pretend that they are not there or do you remove them?
Thanks.

I would do this:
1. Get everything into the catalog except for the duplicates.
2. Duplicate the catalog and previews - this will be the main working catalog that you'll come back to in a mo..
3. Turn off 'don't import suspected duplicates' and import them all in one go. That should populate the Previous Import collection with loads of photos that you know are duplicates.
4. Select all of those duplicates and drag them to a folder called 'Duplicates'.
5. Back that folder up to a DVD or something just in case you missed something, then delete it from the hard drive.
6. Delete the temporary catalog you've just been using and go back to your previous one.

What to do with duplicate association

Hi All,
Working with Jdev11.1.1.16..
As a new with jdev i am little bit confused with association get created when i Synchronize Eo's
currently I am working with HR schema
1. I create two EO's (DepartmentsEO,EmployeesEO) same time three association and viewlinks get created which is understandable
2. Added new column to Employee table
3.Try to synchronize employee EO
4.I found under association package three new associations got created .
My doubt is about newly created association there is no difference between old association and new one except
instead of DeptMgrFkAssoc it will be DeptMgrFkAssoc1
Can i keep all the association files or do i delete previously created one by doing some changes in viewliks bec i found they are references.
Thanks

Thanks Timo
1) Remove the duplicate associations (always remove the lowest number!)
Since View Links refers the association we either need to change the relevant association's in all the view links Or delete the older associations and rename with new ones with the name as older ones
2) Put the associations in the same directory as the entity objects are in
Even though we maintain in same Folder it will generate the Duplicate Associations .
Can’t we just delete all old associations/EO's and recreate new whenever we are doing sync ? and DB changes are bulk and unable to trace modified associations ?

What's Wrong with My Computer?

I have a G5 desktop computer, I believe it's referred to as a "Power Mac." My mom purchased it some years ago, I think in late 2005 shortly after this particular model was on the market.
Info is:
Version 10.5.8
Processor 4 x 2.5 GHz PowerPC G5
Memory 4.5 GB DDR2 SDRAM
Hard Drive 240 GB (127 GB unused/available)
My mother wasn't using this computer for many years, and my 13" Macbook was giving me trouble, so she gave this one to me. It's all been great (she maxed out the memory and hard drive space when she bought it, even though it is outdated and insignificant compared to current models), except for one little thing... Browsing the internet is usually fine when it's only one window, but not always. However, it is almost a guarantee that while trying to operate multiple windows and trying to play a video, Safari will crash. And not just once in awhile. I'm talking about on a daily basis. During regular offline computer use, like Photoshop or iTunes, the computer will sometimes grey over (as if someone put a fairly thick grey film over the entire screen), and tell me I have to restart the computer. So what's wrong with it? I presume it is a physical issue (failing memory, mother board, etc.), but what?

Your computer is not remotely "maxed out" with RAM.
You're describing a G5 Quad like mine (though mine was built in June of 2006), and maxed out means having 16 GB of RAM installed, like mine has.

That's called a Kernel Panic, and, yes, it is most often caused by hardware problems, such as bad RAM or mismatched RAM. I can't imagine how you get to 4.5 GB of RAM without exponentially increasing the risk of mismatched RAM.
RAM has to be installed in matched pairs, starting from the center slots and spreading outward: 4*3*2*1*1*2*3*4
On the other hand, my own personal experience has led me to conclude that Safari is a piece of cr@p. It causes problems just being active in the background, causing other applications to fail.
Check your RAM carefully, starting with just one pair of matched RAM sticks in the two center slots, then adding one pair at a time. Check your hard disk with Apple's Disk Utility.
The kernel panics can be caused by a damaged directory too, so if you own Disk Warrior, run it. If you don't own DiskWarrior, at least Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility and use Verify Disk/Repair Disk with it.
I'd also recommend downloading and installing Applejack and run it according to the instructions.
Good luck.

Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one. Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

In an effort to restore my iPad with iTunes on a computer that is not synced to my iPad, it tells me that I must have the passcode, which I do not remember. What do I do now?

You will need to restore the iPad using Recovery Mode. Since you are using a computer that you have never synced with in the past, you will have to erase the device and will lose all content. You will be able to download your purchased content as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought the content with in the first place - as long as the content is still available and the downloading of past purchases is available in your country.
Recovery Mode explained here ...

What's wrong with the "guided tours"? They won't work on my computer OR my ipad??

What's wrong with Apple's "guided tours"? They won't work on my computer OR my ipad???

The videos all work fine for me. The functioning and performance of these videos have nothing to do with Adobe.
When problems with video appear they often are related to temporary Internet slowdowns or just poor Internet bandwidth.

What is wrong with it?it won't charge when it's powered on only when it s off then it turns on and stops charging?? What's wrong with it ad how much is a Genius Bar appt at apple stores??

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

If you get an network timed out error, try disabling the security software on your computer.

I am getting the error "We're sorry we cannot complete your request on the iTunes store at this time. Please try again later." on both my iPhone and iTunes on my computer. What is wrong with iTunes? Is the server down???

I've been getting the same message for like an hour now. Since everything was working fine a few hours ago, and nothing changed on my end before it stopped working, I'm guessing it's something on Apple's end. They probably already know about it by now, and are hopefully working on fixing it, so there's probably not much we can do but wait for them to fix it.

What file do I play on my computer in a AVCHD disk folder created with premier elements 12?

What file do I play on my computer in a AVCHD disk folder created with premier elements 12?

Phantomkeeper
Just in case note...the DVD-VIDEO folders/files structure is different from that of the AVCHD format.
For DVD-VIDEO (burn to folder)
VIDEO_TS Folder
and your menus are typically found in VTS_01_0.VOB file in the VIDEO_TS Folder
and your video is typically found in VTS_01_0.VOB file in the VIDEO_TS Folder
For AVCHD format (burn to folder)
BDMV Folder
and your video is typically 00000.m2ts file in the STREAM Folder
and your menus are typically 00001.m2ts and 00002.m2ts files in the StREAM Folder.
If you want a single file (not yet on a disc) that will play back your Premiere Elements export, then I think you need a consider disc image file (.iso or .vdd).
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/11/pe12-disc-imagephantom-burner-pe.html
If you take the BDMV Folder from the Premiere Elements AVCHD (with menus) burn to folder into a 3rd party software like ImgBurn, you can put the BDMV Folder on a DVD or Blu-ray disc (to get BDMV Folder and an added CERTIFICATE Folder) and play that back with menus on a Blu-ray player that supports those formats on a supported disc type.
You wrote
but I was looking for the file like the VIDEO_TS file that plays from the menu in a DVD folder.
I have never gotten the VIDEO_TS.VOB file (standalone file) in the VIDEO_TS Folder to playback with a computer player or any other. So, please explain how you have accomplished this, including the player name and whether standalone or computer.
Please review. If you need clarification on anything written, please do not hesitate to ask. The situation above is my take on the matter.
Thanks.

The light on my power cord is orange. What is wrong with it and how can I fix my computer?

You have a Macbook Pro. A Mac Pro is a desktop. The light on your power cord is orange when it's charging. It turns green once it's fully charged.

I'm using the correct APPLE ID and password for Home Sharing on my computer but my AppleTv is not accepting it? What's up with that???

I have the exact same issue. I also tried resetting my password. I can log in to iTunes on my laptop with the new password, on to my iPhone iTunes, but my Apple TV says it cannot recognize my password. I just did an Apple Tv software update a few days ago.
I am able to log in to Netflix on my Apple TV just fine. I did not have to re-enter my password for that.
Very frustrating. I hope Apple can figure this out soon and post a fix.
Thanks for any advice. Cheers.

Hey What's Up With THIS!    I attempted to disconnect from iCloud from my Mac Book Pro the system said I'd loose anything on my computer which had already been uploaded to the iCloud.    When I did the same with my iPhone a message came up asking me IF I

Hey! What's Up With THIS!?
I've been working on a Keynote Presentation for some time now.
Once I added the iCloud.
The system kep going into Storage Mode every 3-4 click on the keyboard or mouse.
So I decided to shut the iCloud down from my computer.
Oh Yeah... Here's the FUN Part.
The system stated 'IF I did..... Everything loaded into theiCloud would be removed from my computer
(MacBook Pro).
So soon after (I obviously didn't disconnect the iCloud, can't afford to losse 'who knows what')
So soon after I went into my iPhone to turn it off as well...
There I received the message/question "Do you want items left on your iPhone?"
Huh!     I didn't even receive that option on the Mac.

Sweet!   Thank You Very Much!
You should be a Tech!
You explained it as simple as any Apple Tech I've spoken to.
I'm in Alaska.
We just received our first Apple Store 2 months ago.
During their third week of operation, I mistakenly walked in assuming it was a
contract Apple store (I heard a New branch/store of an Apple sub had opened a new store in
Anchorage). Needless to say, I bet I took 15 -20 classes in that week. Tuesday through Monday.
Yep! I cancelled everything and just nailed everyone I could.
I live near Fairbanks approximately 7+ hrs away.
I had never had any instruction on Apple/Mac since becoming a PC convert just before Christmas of 2008.
The Crew of Trainers Apple brought in, and New one's still in training are Exceptional!
I've been like a five year old with a Ferrari until these Awesome Folks and Kids trained me in at
That Apple Store.    They even assisted me in tweeking a Keynote Presentation prior to going into a 6 day
Engineering Show also in Anchorage three weeks ago.
