  • How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library

    How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library in iPhone 3G 16 giga?

    The only way to delete photos from the photo library is by the same way the photos were transferred to your iPhone - via the iTunes sync process.
    Are you saying a photo or all photos transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process are duplicated in your iPhone's Photo Library without being duplicated in the folder on your computer where these photos are stored?

  • How to eliminate duplicate copies after doing a sort

    I did a filter/sort across 100's of folders then exported the results to a separate folder.
    I later noticed way too many duplicates in the new folder.
    Does Lightroom have a feature to automatically remove or eliminate duplicates when doing such a process??
    If not, any other ideas??

    Spaceman, you're basically correct that LR doesn't write your changes to the original file itself.  LR is a non-destructive editor, which is really a good thing. It means that if you screw up an edit, you can always go back and start over. Or if you decided to convert the image to B&W, and now want to go back and re-edit it in color, you can do that. There are, however, a couple of ways to do what you want.
    The easiest way is to use the Export dialog. This will create a copy of your image(s) with all the edits applied. Those copies can then be viewed in any image viewer program. You can export as jpeg or tiff files. Based on your question, I'm guessing you typically shoot and process jpeg files (since most image viewers won't display raw files), so LR will create new jpegs, with all your edits. You can give these files new names on export, or write them to a different folder. You can even automatically import the images into the LR catalog if you want. (I don't, as if I ever want to re-edit the images I'll start with the original file.)
    LR can also write the changes to what's called a "sidecar" file, that you can copy along with the original image file.  But I don't think very many apps know what to do with that file, either.

  • Eliminate duplicates in merged lists

    is there an esay way to eliminate duplicates in a merge?

    Hi herbio,
    More information will help to find a solution. How/what did you merge?
    Hint 1: if you sort by that column, you will see duplicates come together.
    Hint 2: Filter by other Columns may help.
    The more you tell, the better we can help .

  • How to eliminate duplicates from multiple subscriptions in iCal?

    Is there a way to eliminate duplicate entries created when subscribing to multiple calendars?  As an example - I have a subscription with each of my kids school calendars (one is in middle school the other elementary). I end up with several duplicates such as the following: 
    February 14, 2014
    * Valentines Day (calendar)
    * Valentines Day (elementary)
    * Valentines Day (middle school)
    Thanks for your help!
    -Curt

    Your specification can be interpreted more than one way.
    In the examples you give, "duplicate records" not only have the same EMPNO, but all the data is the same. If this is what you are trying to avoid, use DISTINCT. Instead ofFROM EMP_TEST Ewrite FROM (select distinct * from EMP_TEST) EThis will eliminate duplicates if and only if every column has the same value.
    Again, not sure if this is what you want but it would work for your sample data.
    P.S. I agree with sb92075, you should make EMPNO a primary key and avoid the problem altogether.

  • How to prevent duplicates when syncing

    Whenever I sync anything to my iPad, iPhone I constantly get duplicated. This includes contacts, tasks & notebooks. How can I prevent this from happening?

    If you have an email account that syncs over the air, you can get duplicates when syncing if you have these selections checked to sync with iTunes. Go to the Info Tab in iTunes when the device is connected to your computer and you are ready to sync - and look at what you have checked to sync. Look at Contacts, Calendars,and Other.

  • How to eliminate Duplicate photos in I-Photo as I now have Snow Leopard

    Problem to Solve: I loaded from my both memory chips and also from my camera, many photos from a long trip.

  • How to eliminate multiple invisible "Recovered Photos" folders?

    Background:
    OS 10.7.5
    MacBook Pro 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    iPhoto 11 9.4.2
    iTunes 11.0.2 (26)
    15,258 photos
    When I go to sync any iDevice in iTunes 11, multiple "Recovered Photos" folders appear as folders in the "Albums" list.
    These folders "Recovered Photos," "Recovered Photos(1)," etc. do NOT appear in my iPhoto 11 Albums.
    At present they appear to cause no harm, but I'm one who believes that "where there's smoke, there's fire" in the "computers behaving weirdly" department, so I set about to find and eliminate these phantom folders.
    I tried all the "rebuild/restore" functions in iPhoto. This did not work.
    I tried iPhoto Library Manager 3.8.6 (have not paid to upgrade to 4) to rebuild the library. This resulted in the "Recovered Photos" folders all appearing in the iPhoto Albums list where they were deletable, but all my Keywords and Smart Albums had been wiped out.
    Any ideas on how to end up with a clean iPhoto library, complete with keywords, albums and smart albums preserved, but without these phantom folders, or is this library FUBAR?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    You can use the free demo of iPLM 4 to rebuild the library.
    You can try the following:
    1 - close iPhoto.
    2 - open the iPhoto Library package with the Finder:
    3 - move the AlbumData.xml file to the Desktop.
    4 - lanuch iPhoto and check to see if there's any change.
    If that doesn't help you can move the file back into the package if there's any problem with the library.  If not then trash it.

  • How to eliminate default text in Photo Mail creations

    Every time I create a Photo Email in PSE 11 the email appears in my email client with this text added to it:  "Here are the files that I want to share with you".  I do not what this text and I have to select it and delete it for every email I create.  Is there any way to change and/or eliminate this text permanently within the PSE files?

  • How to update bookmarks when merging two PDF files?

    We have a company catalog that gets generated once a night.  It's three step process:
         Step 1)  A raw XML file gets generated from our main ERP software (Microsoft Dynamics).
         Step 2)  Then that raw XML file is ran against a stylesheet with XEP to produce a nice professional looking catalog.
         Step 3)  And the third step is a script that merges the front and back covers with the main catalog produced in step 2.  Each cover is two pages (front and back).
    My problem is when step 3 runs it produces a final catalog but all the bookmarks are off by 2 pages because the front cover adds two pages in the very beginning.  This post may be premature because up until now I've been merging the PDF pages with a program called "GhostScript" and it allows me to merge them via line command.  I'm just now trying out AcroExch.App COM Object for VBScript so I'll see if it works but wanted to fire this out for help to see if anyone has encountered this or can confirm if Adobe automatically updates them for you?  When I "Merge" the PDF files through Acrobat Pro they get updated automatically, so hopefully it will work the same way with AcroExch.App Object.   Thanks guy!

    I think you might be misunderstanding what I'm saying... we are not performing tasks for non-licensed individuals.  We purchased a copy of Adobe Acrobat Standard so we could create a PDF of our catalog.  That catalog we then put on our website and let people download it.  Since our products change all the time, we generate a new catalog every night.  The term "server" is just a place where a script runs, I could have it run on my desktop computer if that's really an issue but I think we're talking semantics.  Acrobat is not what produces the main catalog PDF, that is done through XEP when it runs through the raw XML produced by our ERP software every night.  The only thing we want Acrobat to do is an automated process to merge 3 PDF files together:  Front Cover, Main Catalog and Back Cover.  That's it.   Are you saying that is against the EULA of Adobe for us to do that? 
    Now for the bookmark problem, what do you recommend I do then?  When I merge all three of those PDF files in Acrobat Standard manually it works perfect.  All I'm trying to do is automate that process once every night.  I know how to automate with Acrobat, I just can't figure out how to fix the bookmark problem?

  • Duplicates when importing photos from iPhoto to Aperture 3

    I have recently purchased Aperture 3 & am trying to import my events from Iphoto to A3 but each event I import has duplicates of EVERY image. Even if I have never edited the photo in Iphoto it always shows 2 photos of every shot? Any solutions to avoid this as it will be too hard to go thru each event & delete the duplicates. Too many!!

    When I check my system info it reads that I have  2 memory slots x 2GB (don't really know what that means) and I am running MacOS 10.7.4 yes. I have 63GB of 499GB free so nowhere near 30%. Explains why it is running slow I guess :-)
    So you have 4GB RAM, that should do if you do not run many applications in parallel, and you really need to free some disk space! There is a nice utility in the Applications > Utilities folder: Activity Monitor. Launc it and look at the runtime and memory usage. That will tell you if your system is running low on RAM. My MBP profited considerably from an upgrade to 8GB.
    I am trying to back up on a WD external drive USB.  I don't understand what a firewire port is?
    Firewire is a fast connection to external devices, and many external disks offer a firewire cable connection; the port usually is marked by a Y-Symbol:
    Leonie, I have read something about duplicate annihalitor (or something like that). Would it pay to run that on my Iphoto first and delete duplicates? Have u used that programme?
    I have never used it myself, but Terence Devlin recommends it frequently. It will find exact duplicates, if you imported the same image twice or made copies, but it will not remove the original masters of a version, afaik. Check it out here:
    Duplicate Annihilator:
    Can I store my library on my external HD and just access it each time I enter Aperture so that my Mac HD doesnt get overloaded?
    There is a better way in Aperture:
    What I do on my MBP with limited space is to keep the Aperture library on the System volume, but (most of) the original master image files on an external drive. This is what is called a referenced Aperture library. I set the Aperture preferences to enable the creation of Previews. THis way I can browse my images, tag them, and rate them with stars even if I am on the road. The images can be accessed from the Media Browser and used in other iApps or the screen saver. Only when I want to edit an image I need to connect the external volume and to mount it.
    To turn an image into a referenced image select it (or select several images at once) and from the main menu bar select: File -> Relocate master(s).  Then select a location where to store your masters on the external volume.
    I usually import the new images as managed (stored inside the Aperture library) and relocate them to the external volume when I am through with editing. Perhaps this kind of workflow will be suitable for you too. Bt do not forget to backup the master images on the external volume as well.
    Regards
    Léonie
