How do I Delete all Duplicate Photos?

I have several copies of the same photos in iPhoto and under Pictures in the HD. I am not sure how they got duplicated in the first place, but there has got to be a simple way to delete all duplicates, right? I have like 10,000 images and many of them are duplicates, and many of them are images from my text books that I do not want.
I have iWork and MobileMe if that helps at all...

I don't know. They all claim to find duplicate files. The poster will need to read the Read Me files to confirm if the duplicates inside the iPhoto library folder are included.

  • Automatic Delete all duplicate photos in IPhoto ?

    How can I delete all duplicate photos in my I Photo ? I have 6000 photos with many duplicates.

    Where are you seeing these duplicates? In iPhoto or via the Finder? If it's in iPhoto then try using Duplicate Annihilator. It can detect and identify duplicated image files that have been imported into iPhoto.
    If it's via the Finder then it's very likely you don't have true duplicates like you think you do.

  • How do I locate all duplicate photos in iPhoto library?

    I wish to delete all duplicate photos in my iPhoto (version 9.6) library. How can I id all duplicates in the library?

    iPhoto does not have built-in tools to detect and remove duplicates, because the Import panel will show an alert, when you try to import duplicate photos.
    If you managed to import the same photos twice, you can either remove them manually by sorting the photos by date, so duplicates will show side-by-side, or use third-party apps like iPhoto Library Manager, Photo Sweeper, etc.

    if you are new to iPhoto, you may be assuming there are duplicate photos, because iPhoto will show the same photos in different views - the Events view, Photos View, Last Import, Albums, all will be showing the same photos in different arrangements, but these photos are not duplicates, just different ways to access the same photos.

  • HT4528 how do I delete all my photos from my phone

    How do I delete all my photos from my phone using my phone?

    Photos on your iPhone that were transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process cannot be deleted direct from the iPhone. These photos are removed from your iPhone the same way - via the iTunes sync process.
    Photos in the Camera Roll can be deleted direct from the iPhone. With the Camera Roll selected, select the icon at the top right. Select the photos you want to delete followed by selecting the Red delete button at the bottom right.

    how do i delete all the photos that are in that Photo app?   it is eating up all my memory

    Photos transferred from your computer are removed from the iPhone the same way they were transferred from your computer, via the iTunes sync process. To remove all such photos, deselect Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
    Photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera followed by deleting the photos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete.

  • Each song on my iTunes has a duplicate. How do I delete all duplicates and prevent this from happening again in the future?

    Each song on my iTunes has a duplicate. How do I delete all duplicates and prevent this from happening again in the future?

    After I had updated to Itunes 11 (also on Windows 7), I had the same experience, but I suspect that it was because I accepted a proposal to set up an external media library in order to simplify security backups. An associated result was that I had lost all of my playlists!
    What I did was to restore the entire library off my Ipod, using a very good program called PodToPC (a free download is available) selecting an option to replace all of the stuff in the Itunes library. I use the Ipod Classic simply because it has a large capacity to hold my collection of CD and Vinyls. No way was I going to modify duplicates of 10000 tracks in 750 playslists by hand!  I did have a few residual problems with some of the playlist specs but, after a few hours of work all was restored.
    I hope this is useful.

    how do I delete all the photos off my phone ?

    Hi tehdeh,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    There are a couple of ways to do this.  As a precaution, I like to import my pictures to my computer first ... which gives me a backup of the photos, AND gives me the option to delete them after import.  This article explains how:

    If you have synced photos or albums from iTunes to your iPhone, you can remove them that way as well:

    There is an option, under Advanced, on the Info Pane in iTunes to replace all contacts on your phone with what's on your computer for the next sync only. So, edit everything on your computer & use that method.

  • How do I delete all my photos at once?

    I transferred all my photos to my computer so I need them off my phone. How do I delete all my photos at once? Help!

    One of two ways, install Files; http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/files/762e837f-461d-4847-8399-3526f54fc25e navigate to Pictures and delete the photos as needed or reconnect your phone to your computer and delete the photos from there.
    If you're synching to One Drive you might get them back.

  • How do I delete all the photos from my camera roll?

    I have all the photos/videos saved to Dropbox, now how do I delete all the photos from my iPhone & iPad Camera Roll/Photo Stream? I want to delete all the photos/videos at one time, is this possible?

    Connect to you're laptop. If you are using Windows:
    Click "File Explorer"
    Click "Computer"
    Click the iPhone
    Find "Camera Rolll"
    Select all of the photos and delete them.
    For Mac:
    No idea how macs work but it should be something like the instructions for Windows :-/
    As far as Photo Stream, they will automatically be deleted after 30 days and they do not take up iCloud space so you have nothing to worry about.

    What is the best way to delete multiple duplicate photos ?

    You can use one of the apps:
    iPhoto Library Manager 
    Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free
    Duplicate Annihilator
    iPhoto Applescript to Remove Duplicates - free
    My personal favorite is the same as Larry's, iPhoto Library Manager.
