How to hide duplicate photos that origins from the photo stream and imported photos?

Hi,
I are using my camera both with an IPad (through SD-card reader) and directly to my iMac.
I want to keep the full photo archive on the iMac.
Now the problem, that I encounter, is that if I use the iPad to look at the photos, those photos will be transfered to the photo-stream.
Then later when I import all my photos from the camera to the i Mac, those photos that I happened to import to the iPad will show up as duplicate in iPhoto.
Of course I only want one copy of a photo regardless if they arrive from the photo-stream or through a direct import to my iMac.
Is there a way to fix this problem or is it simply a bug?
I think it would be rather easy for the iPhoto software to detect duplicates and hide them.

You can use one of these applications to identify and 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 dupicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: i photo 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 the only duplicate finder app that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates was PhotoSweeper.  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 diffferent 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.

  • I am using the window xp and firefox 6. I see many videos on youtube. How I get that videos from the catch folder and where is it?

    I am using the window xp and firefox 6.
    I watch the youtube videos online.
    How I get that video from the catch folder and where that catch folder are situated in the window xp.

    ''How can I view or retrieve a video from Firefox's cache''
    To actually view/retrieve the file from the cache and its web address you can use
    the "Cache Viewer" extension 32.8KB
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/cacheviewer/
    * http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox.htm#cacheviewer
    For you to be able to view the cached file you would have had to have watched the entire file.
    The latest version of the extension is 0.7b available in all versions you would have to override compatibility by any of these methods
    * checking or pick up one of the xpi versions in the reader comments for Firefox 6.0
    * extensions.checkCompatibility.6.0 set to False
    *: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.checkCompatibility
    * or with an extension "Add-on Compatibility Reporter" (84.0 KB) seems preferred in this group
    *:https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
    There are also extensions such as Video downloader 132.8 KB
    * Download YouTube Videos + Flash Video Downloader / Download-Helper

    How do I reduce the size of photo in iPhoto?  The size of my imported photos from my camera are 2 - 3 MB and for my purpose I need 200 - 400 KB.   Scanned copies of older photographs with a size of 100 to 500 KB work very well.  Any help is greatly appreciated. 

    File -> Export and make your choices in the Export dialogue.
    Jpeg Quality and Size will have most effect on file size. Note that 'Size' refers to the pixel dimensions of the photo.

    I brought an ipad original from the United states and it doesn't join the wi-fi network here in bangalore. any ideas or suggestions?

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Hi Sudhir,
    In case you have edit access in your system carry out the following procedure:
    1. Create an export datasource on your cube.
    2. Now create the update rules to your cube using the datamart Infosource.
    3. In the update rules multiply all the key figures by
    -1.
    4. Now create an infopackage and give the request id of the duplicate request as selection.
    5. Load the datamart request and do the data validation.
    If you do not ahve edit access there is no other alternative you would have to delete all the data and reconstruct the requests that you need.
    Bye

  • HT6541 How do I get my pictures back from the update? They were photos synced from my previous phone and now they are gone. Please help!

    i Just got an iPhone and I did not have icloud or iTunes yet. My photos from my previous phone were synced to my new phone and after the update they all disappeared. Please help me recover my pictures

    If all you did was sync your phone, and if you haven't synced again since this happened, you can restore your phone from the backup that was created at the beginning of the sync process (camera roll photos are included in the backup).  If you have synced again since this happened this backup has already been overwritten and your photos are lost.  Also, if you restored your phone from the backup of your iPod, rather than just synced, then your  photos are lost too.
    If you have an intact backup that contains these photos, do the following:
    Without connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences.  On the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".
    Connect your phone to your computer, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar and select Restore from Backup, choose your most recent backup to restore from.
    When complete, you can go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.

  • How to force BI Server to pick from the Agg table and not the Fact table?

    Hi All,
    I have 3 tables as the Sources in the Key measures. 2 are fact tables and the other one is the agg table.
    E.g.
    Fact 1 at A,B,C,D and E level
    Fact 2 at A,B,C level
    Agg at A,B,C level which contains the measures from the Fact1 and Fact2
    So when I select the measures from the Agg which are coming from Fact1 the Agg table get fired and when I select measures from Agg which are coming from Fact2, the Fact2 table gets fired in the SQL Query.
    Now my question here is there anyway to tell BI Server that when I select Fact2 measures fire the Agg table and not the Fact2 table. The reason being the Agg and Fact2 tables are at the same level.
    But I need to keep the Agg table as it is one level higher than the Fact1 tables.
    Any pointers would be helpful.

    hi,
    you explain us your situation really good.but you forgot to tell us the most import,the measures in aggregate table and the aggregated dimensions.
    meaning,you have 7 measures aggregated in some levels of your dimensions tables?if yes,there is no possibility Bi goes anywhere else..(by choosing only these measures and the defined levels at your dimensions..)
    One more thing,if you choose a combination of your 2 fact data sources,bi goes?where???
    hope i helped...
