Can iPhoto find Duplicate Photos

Can iPhoto find Duplicate Photos like iView Media can? I don't mean finding duplicate names, but rather analyzing the actual photo itself and finding doubles.
Strangly enough, this is one of the remaining reasons for me needing to use iView for some tasks.

No, iPhoto hasn't this functionality. It would be a nice feature though.
You can also use GraphicConverter to find your duplicate photos.

  • How can I find duplicate photos without going through all 5000  one at a time?

    How can I find duplicate photos withough going through all 5000 one by one?  I have numerous duplications and used to be able to click on Edit and Find Duplicates and could clean up all the duplicates easily.  Now that option is gone.  I still have lots to delete.

    I do backup everything using Carbonite.Please don't tell me it is bad, too :-)  Also, especially with photo files, I do have other backups of those I am concerned about. Probably not the best in the world, but a log better than many people who I know about.
    Again, I really have not seen any problems with MacKeeper.  I imagine that if people do not read and follow instructions, they could have problems. For example, it is possible to scan all your files and see them in order of size. If you start deleting things, without knowing what you're deleting, you could cause trouble. Even when the computer scans for so-called junk files, you can look at them and decide for yourself if they are truly junk. I've never seen any that were not.
    So, I will look at the complaints anyway to see them. I am open to change, although I hope I do not need to drop Mackeeper as it does things like keeping tracking of applications updates that I need. Please note that I definitely am not a MacKeeper employee or anything close. Just using it and happy with the the results.
    I did download the recommend file for finding photo dupes and ran it.  There were very few duplicates, in any case, As I said before, the MacKeeper dupe finder was very slow when I ran it over ALL my files. That was a year ago and it did find many non-text dupes.

  • Can Lightroom Find Duplicate Photos?

    Fellow Forum Members,
    Does the latest version of Lightroom have the capability to find duplicate photos?  I have a bunch of JPGs and no desire to go through all of them to find duplicates.  If Lightroom can not find duplicated,  can anyone out there please recommend an app that is good at finding duplicate photos or near duplicate photos.  Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

    I cannot recommend "lightroom-plugins.com".  I purchased the software, tried the registration key and it still ran in demo mode.  After 48 hours, still no response from customer support.  The site appears to be inactive.
    I did find a free version:

    I'm not sure how well it works, it is processing now.
    Good luck!

  • Can Iphoto detect duplicate photos in a library?

    Team
    Been using Iphoto as my primary photo viewing option, containing photos going back some 10 +years. I am alos running time machine for the back up option. In that time I have had a  library crash which resulted in the libraries being rebuilt. I am also now taking more photos on my Iphone and then improting them into the library. I have two issues:
    1) What ever the cause I when I view the library structure I have countless rols which I would prefer to organise into a more structured and complete album. I understand under Albums you can create folders and sub albums for viewing what you want but the I photo viewing screen defaults to the library which in my case defaults to countless events or countless rolls.
    2) What ever the cause I have ended up with many of my earlier albums / rolls containing multiple copies of the same photo - up to 5 and 6 in some instances. I am reluctant to go through an delete them one by one as I am concerned that without checking the individual photo size I may end up deleting the photo and leaving a thumbnail.
    3) is it possible for Iphoto to detect duplicated photos (like I tunes can do with music) so that these can be viewed in a separate screen and the duplicates viewed and deleted.?
    Cheers in advance.

    TD
    Mate hope your on a retainer, Duplicate Annihilator, cheap, functional and seems to be doing its things.
    Thanks.
    Is it possible to ge the Library to only show events from like the last month?? rather than showing everthing - I have to scroll through pages of events / photo rolls to get to the ones I am using at the moment.
    Cheers again

  • How do i find duplicate photos in my iPhoto library?

    How do i find duplicate photos in my iPhoto library?

    These applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
    iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
    Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported into another.
    PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
    DeCloner - $19.95 - can find duplicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
    DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
    iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
    PhotoDedupo - $4.99 (App Store) -  this app has a "similar" search feature which is like PhotoSweeper's bitmap comparison.  It found all duplicates
    Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free - was able to recognize the duplicated HDR and normal files from an iPhone shooting in HDR
    Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: iphoto has duplicated many photos, how...: Apple Support Communities.
    If you have an iPhone and have it set to keep the normal photo when shooting HDR photos the two image files that are created will be duplicates in a manner of speaking (same image) but there are only twp apps that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates:  PhotoSweeper and Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto.  None of the other apps detected those two files as being duplicates as they look for file name as well as other attributes and the two files from the iPhone have different file names.
    iPLM, however, is the best all around iPhoto utility as it can do so much more than just find duplicates.  IMO it's a must have tool if using iPhoto.

  • Apple tv can't find my photos since I switched from iPhoto to Photos

    I recently switched from iPhoto to Photos on my imac which is running Yosemite 10.10.6. and since then my Apple TV version 2 can't find my photos.  Also, the taskbar on Photos is nothing like they show in the description.

    Have you changed your Home sharing settings in iTunes from iPhoto to Photos (iTunes > File > Home Sharing > Choose Photos...)

  • I've bought my 1st Mac, since than I've replaced my old disk to a new one - and at the lab they created my new admin's name as admin.. I've changed it after 'root'ing - and now I can't find my photos either at iPhoto/photo booth,what can I do to restore ?

    Please I'll be thankfull.

    I stated that I did try to do all of this when I first set up the new computer...I did do the Setup Assistant numerous times but my old computer kept freezing half way through.  Even if I did it when I first got the new computer back in Septemeber, I would have had the same issue b/c my old computer has been 'broken' for a while.  My old computer can't handle doing too much at once and I think the setup and then migration functions I tried were too much.  That's why I was hoping I could use the migration function piecemeal.  I wish I could just check off the exact files and folders I want vs. having to choose it at the 'user' level...that's too much for my old computer to have to transfer.

  • HELP!  I had iPhoto on my mac, for some reason it was not responding down loaded a new version but can't find my photos. any ideas please.  I thought once on the mac always on the mac.

    HELP!  I had iPhoto on my mac, for some reason it was not responding or damaged.   down loaded a new version but can't find my photos. any ideas please.  I thought once on the mac always on the mac.

    Sorry but we need details to help
    What version of the OS do you have? What has changed since iPhtoo worked?
    What exactly is the problem - you say "it was not responding" - You downloaded a new version (what version)" -you can't find yoru photos" none of which is helpful
    look in your applications folder - is there an Iphoto application there? If so get info and report the version
    Look in the picures folder - is there an iPhoto library there? If so exactly (including exact error messages) happens if you double click on it?
    what else can you tell us that might help us assist you?

    Thanks for the answer.  After I posted this question, I saw there were other discussions.  I do see everything is there, but it is time comsuming to view each individual picture to make sure I put it in the right catagory!!
    I did send feedback to apple,  but I see people have been asking them to fix this problem for the last 7 months or so, and it is still not fixed.....so what is good about the new version!!?
