Help on deleting duplicate photos

Newbie have switched to mac in January transfered photos on DVD to my iphoto from Windows Digital image suite and have multiple copies of the same photos. I do not want to go thru my entire library and delete them one by one. Is there such a command as delete all duplicate photos in iphoto? if not I'm gonna be busy for DAYS
Macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

You're gonna be busy for days.
Though Duplicate Annihilator may help.

  • Is there a way to automatically detect and delete duplicate photos in a library

    I just imported a load of photos into my main iPhoto '11 Library from several older MAC's Photo Libraries. Despite repeatedly using the "Don't Import Duplicate Photos" dialogue box, I have many duplicate photos. Is there a way to automatically detect and delete Duplicate Photos?
    I also have iPhoto Library Manager installed on my MAC, but cannot seem to locate on it anything that would do this.
    I have over 4,000 photos, so would really appreciate some help here! Thanks in advance...

    And NEVER import an iPhoto library into another iPhoto library - doing so des not work and creates massive duplication
    if you still have all of the original iPhoto libraries I recommend you drag the bad one you created to the desktop (delete it later when everythin has successfully been completed) and start over usin iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  to merge the libraries

  • How can I identify and delete duplicate photos

    is there a way to identify and delete duplicate photo's in I photo?

    No one is suggesting that you download third party "crap". What was suggested is that you download a well established and supported 3rd party application. As to why there isn't a "'delete your stupid duplicate photo' option", you'll need to ask Apple that. Apple aren't here. This forum is for Users to help other Users. As to why you import stupid photos, you'll need to ask yourself.

  • Organizing and deleting Duplicate Photos in iPhoto library?

    Can I easily organize and delete duplicate photos in my iPhoto library?

    These applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
    iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
    PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
    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 the library.
    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.

  • Do you know of a simple way of sorting and deleting duplicate photos on  aperture

    Hi , Do you know of a simple way of sorting and then deleting duplicate photos on Apeture.
    Thanks Phil

    There is no simple way. The best strategy really is to take care not to import duplicates.
    What is your Aperture 3 version?
    What kind of duplicates are you asking about? 
    If you imported exactly the same file multiple times, sorting your images in the Finder by filename or creation date will display them side by side.
    If you have diferently sized versions of the same image, edited versions, or versions converted to a different format, then sorting by creation date will not help; you might try to sort by capture date, but that may fail, if there were different imezone settings when you imported the images.
    You could also sort be filename, if you did not rename the images on import.
    If you renamed your versions, adjusted the date, modified the file properties by writing to the original files, try to sort by other tages - faces, location, keywords.
    There are some helper applications to scan your Aperture library and tag duplicates: (I have not really tested any of them)
    Duplicate Annihilator (Mac) - Download  good to detect accidentally imported thumbnails
    http://photosweeper.en.softonic.com/mac  : This app can actually detect edited duplicates based on statistic measures and histogram similarity.

  • How do i delete duplicate photos in iphoto

    What is the easiest way to delete duplicate photos in iphoto at one time?  I have 8,000 photos to go through with many duplicates.

    BUT
    Having lots of duplicates is usually a symptom=n of other problems - most often user workflow - maybe if you told us a bit more and how the duplicates came to be we could help avoid future occurances and even solve this in a better way

  • I am trying to delete duplicate photos from events in i=-photo but it deletes the photos entirely from all events including the one I want to keep.  How do I keep the original and delete the duplicates?

    I am trying to delete duplicate photos fron my events in i-photo but it deltes the photo entirely from all events.  How do I keep them in the original events and delte the duplicates without sending them all to the trash?

    Are you referring to Events or Albums?  A photo can exist in one Event only.  However, it can be in multiple albums, books, etc., which uses pointers to the original photo in the Event.  In those cases if you delete the photo from the Event all occurrences of it will be deleted from the library.

    how to find and delete duplicate photos in photo app

    Photos has no built-in tools to screen the library for duplicates. It relies on the warning on import, that should prevent you from importing duplicates.
    Once duplicate shave been imported, delete them manually, or use third-party tools.
    For example, these new apps claim to work with Photos:
    Power photos:  Fat Cat Software
    Duplicate annihilator: Brattoo Propaganda Software - Products
