How to reinstate duplicate message on import

Hi guys. First post and fairly new to Mac.
I was importing photos from a CD and when it asked me if I wanted to eliminate duplicates I selected yes and hit do not show me this message again. Is there any way to get that message to begin appearing again? The reason I ask is because it did not seem to work on the 2nd CD import. It appears there are several duplicates.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

quit iPhoto and delete the iPhoto preference file ("your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist) - launch iPhoto and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the location of the iPhoto library repoint to it
All preferences will now be set to default except the ones you just changed

  • How to handle duplicate messages in J2SE File scenario

    Hi,
    Is there any way to handle processing of duplicate messages in J2SE File adapter scenario?
    Here is the scenario ,
    Steps :
    1. Engine picks up a message and checks the size of it.
    2. Before reaching the checking interval , the adapter(file) was terminated unfortunately.
    3. J2SE engine was restarted.
    4. Previous file was again picked up and sent as the first time with one msgID.
    5. After sometime, same file was picked up with a new msgID
    6. System gets only ONE configrmation that file has been successfully transfered.
    So we find two messages containing the same file.
    I have checked in J2SE doc, there is a parameter called "db.exactlyOnceErrorInPendingState" which is related to DB.
    Is there any similar parameter to handle the duplicate messages in FIle Adapter scenarios of J2SE Engine.
    Please help me in this regard as it seems to be a new thing in J2SE AE.

    Soorya.

  • How to remove duplicate messages from Mail in Mavericks (POP)

    Hello
    I'm having some significant problems with Apple Mail, and despite having researched widely, I haven't been able to find a solution yet. Here is my tale of woe...
    My set up is that I use Mail with 5 separate accounts, downloading all messages using POP. I keep all my mail so that I have a permanent record of all conversations, going back more than 10 years - this is about 250,000 emails. I'm running the latest version of Mavericks on a 2010 MBP. I have no intention of moving to IMAP - I need to keep a local archive of all my mail.
    A few months ago I was having problems with Mail being very slow to load and search emails. I decided to rebuild the mailboxes, but afterwards discovered that thousands of messages in the inbox of one of my accounts (and some of the sub-folders) had disappeared. Once I realised I tried to go back to a recent Time Machine back up, but, for whatever reason, that part of the back up hadn't worked properly and I was unable to recover the previous status. Ileft it while I decided what to do, and had time to deal with it.
    The last 2 years worth of emails on that account were still archived on gmail, so last week I decided to try redownloading the whole lot (something like 72,000 messages), and then uplanned to use one of the scripts I was aware of to remove the duplicates to the trash, and then remove any duplicates in the trash forever. That ought to mean I at least had an archive of the last two years of missing messages, even if I had no record of which ones had been flagged or replied to, etc.
    The downloading took about 24 hours to complete, and I now have almost 70,000 messages in the inbox of that account. However, I hadn't figured on two things:
    1. Mail 'hides' duplicate messages, meaning that all of the messages I've downloaded are showing as unread, and I can't differentiate the ones I already had in my Inbox, and the new downloads. When I click on those apparently unread messages I can see if they have been replied to or forwarded, etc, but there's no obvious way for me to remove the ones I have already dealt with to the trash, without going through them all manually, which is clearly impossible.
    2. The scripts I'd found for removing duplicates don't work. Andreas Amann's Remove Duplicates script doesn't work under Mavericks, and he has abandoned the project. I've also tried the remove-duplicate-messages.scpt made by Jolly Roger (http://jollyroger.kicks-***.org/software/), and while it *sometimes* works on individual subfolders on my Mac (but as far as I can tell removes the duplicate in that folder, rather than the newly downloaded version), mostly it doesn't work at all - it creates a 'Remove Duplicate Messages' folder on my desktop, a log inside it and a folder for removed messages, but nothing appears in the duplicates folder.
    So, I'm left in a position where I have 70,000 apparently unread messages in my Inbox, a massively bloated Mail library (which has pretty much doubled in size), a slow and unresponsive Mail program. I figure I have a number of options. Either I could abandon the last week's efforts and revert to the version of

  • How to prevent duplicates from being imported?

    Apologies if this question has been asked before, but I can't find exactly the answer I'm looking for in the archives.
    I want to import an older version of my iPhoto Library into my current iPhoto Library. Since each library contains photos that the other lacks, I want to merge the two; but I can't find any way to tell iPhoto not to import duplicates (there may be 1000's) from the older version of the library to the newer. Can anybody help?

    First, *do not import one library into another.* You will get as original files all thumbnails, modified photos, faces photo as well as the original photos.
    If your newer library is a blank library then all you need to do is open the older library with iPhoto 09 and it will convert it to an iPhoto 09 library. Nothing else needed.
    If the new library also has photos and you want to merge the two libraries into one (both must be the same version) use iPhoto Library Manager. This will merge the who libraries into a new 3rd library while keeping all metadata, faces, places, keywords and albums. iPLM can be setup to not import duplicates.
    If you just want to import selected Events or albums from one library into the other iPLM can do that also.
    Happy New Year

  • How to disable duplicate message from imessage on Mac and Messages on iPhone?

    I Just purchased an iPhone 4s. Previous to that, i have been using messages on my macbook pro. When i finally got the two synced up together so that messages were being delivered to my phone when i was away from my computer, i noticed that i received notifications for messages on my phone even when i was on iMessage on my mac. Is there a way to change this so I don't get double the notifications, or do I have to disable iMessage on my phone every time I'm at my computer using messages?

    You are correct.  The only way to stop it, is to turn off iMessage.  Your frustration is actually the reason they made iMessage.  It was designed so you could be working on your Mac, and if you recieved a text message, you could reply with out having to locate your phone.  I understand it can be frustrating because in my expeirence, when I'm away from my desk, anyone with access to my computer can then sit there and enjoy my conversation with out me knowing about it... I have since started logging out of Messages on my Mac when I walk away.  then no one can see it, and when I log back in, the messages are synced back up again.  Good luck!!  Cheers!

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
    If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

  • When using Message Filters on an IMAP account I often get duplicate messages in my local folder where important messages are put. How can I stop this?

    Since switching to IMAP and using message filters, I often get duplicate messages in my local folders. I think this is a bug.
    That is my guess as to what is happening.
    When the IMAP part starts syncing with the server to fill in the inbox, the message filter system starts working before it is done syncing. I appears that the filters runs too quickly because as the filter moves a msg to a local folder, the sync thread think it need to download it again from the server. If the sync with the remote server takes a long time, I could end up with 5 or more copies of the exact same email.
    This has always happened for years now but I figured someone would have noticed it and fix it by now. Now I am wondering it it has something to do with my filters or my settings.
    Has anyone run into this before?

    Toys,
    I was just doing a search to see if anyone else was feeling this way! I am also at a university and I don't really like see thousands of unread messages in mail. (Fortunately, with Leopard you can select the dock icon to show only the messages in your inbox but I still don't like having the public folder in there).
    Please let me know if you find out anything and I will do the same for you. If I have time later I am going to run by our IT office later and ask them.

  • TS2755 I have 2 phones on my apple id acct. And when I text message that person I am getting a duplicate message to myself. How do I stop this from happening

    I have 2 phones attached to my apple ID account and when I text message that person, I am getting a duplicate message sent back to me.  How do I stop this from happening?

    Make 3 different iCloud accounts and use ONLY for iMessage.   That will permanently fix your issue.

  • How can I Delete a MobileMe Email Account and Kill Duplicate Messages?

    When I select "All Inboxes" on my iPhone 4s, I see duplicates of each and every message I receive. Furthermore, the duplicate can't be deleted and I get an error message informing so! I suspect this phenomenon is occurring because I have both an iCloud and a MobileMe account. I want to cancel the MobileMe one.
    Here's the deal:
    My iPhone 4s lists three email accounts, including a "MobileMe" one that I want to delete because I believe it is delivering duplicate messages. However, I can't seem to figure out how to delete the MobileMe's email account or, for that matter, MobileMe itself. Apple support screens refer to cancelling a MobileMe account but are not clear on how to actually do it.
    1. On the iPhone 4s, I click on the "Mail" icon at the bottom of the screen
    2. On a screen under the heading "Mailboxes," under "Inboxes," there are two that read exactly the same (I think one is iCloud and the other MobileMe).
    3. On the same screen, under "Accounts," I see an iCloud account logo, a Bellsouth/Yahoo account logo and a MobileMe account logo.
    4. I want to keep the iCloud and Bellsouth/Yahoo accounts but delete the MobileMe one but I can find no way on this screen or any other iPhone 4s screen to do so. Nor do I see any path to do so in iTunes. And the MobileMe account doesn't even show up in the Apple email app on the laptop to which I sync my iPhone.
    If I go to www.me.com and log into my MobileMe account, there is no apparent way to disable, delete or otherwise cancel it. Why?
    I am convinced that the simultaneous presence of both iCloud and MobileMe accounts is responsible for the double email messages when I select to view "All inboxes" on my iPhone. (A workaround is to simply select just one of the accounts, say, the iCloud one. Then I see only one copy of each message. That's OK but surely there is some way to kill off this redundant MobileMe account AND the duplicate messages, yes???

    First, thanks for the reply. And, I believe you are exactly right that the names are the same. However, when I go (on my iPhone) as you suggest to "Settings," "Mail, Contacts, Calendars," only two accounts are showing; my Mac account and my Bellsouth one. If I select either, I get an option to delete but the duplicate "MobileMe" account does not appear. It only shows up, as described above, if I:
    1. On the iPhone 4s, I click on the "Mail" icon at the bottom of the screen
    2. On a screen under the heading "Mailboxes," under "Inboxes," there are two that read exactly the same (I think one is iCloud and the other MobileMe).
    3. On the same screen, under "Accounts," I see an iCloud account logo, a Bellsouth/Yahoo account logo and a MobileMe account logo.
    It's nutso, I admit, but true. Any other suggestions would be most welcome.

  • How can I prevent Mail from applying actions (moving/copying/flagging/marking read) to duplicate messages?

    I use Mail to check multiple accounts. When I receive the same e-mail in multiple accounts, actions applied to an e-mail in one account often (though not always) affect duplicate messages in other accounts.
    Example 1
    Someone sends an e-mail to both me and my wife. Mail is set up to check both accounts. If I open the message in my Inbox, it marks it as read in my Inbox as well as in my wife's Inbox.
    Example 2
    For historical reasons, I have chosen to have all my e-mail forwarded (by the server) to a second account, to be used essentially as an un-touched archive of all incoming mail. If I manually move a message from my main account Inbox to another mailbox, the destination mailbox will end up with 2 copies, one from my main account Inbox and the other from the "un-touched archive" Inbox (which has obviously now been altered unintentionally).
    Does anyone know of a way to prevent this behavior. I can manage my own duplicates. I don't want Mail to do it for me.
    (Btw, I already have the "AlwaysShowDuplicates" option set using "defaults delete com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates")

    There are certainly many ways of organizing things so that Mail never has to deal with multiple accounts and duplicate messages (separate user accounts, separate computers, separate mail clients, etc., etc). That's just not what I was asking. I'd like to know how to fix Mail's behavior when it does have to deal with multiple accounts and duplicate messages.
    I was hoping there might be another hidden preference or something (and by the way my original post should have said "defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool true", instead of the "defaults delete ...")

  • How to disable detection of duplicate messages in Lion Mail?

    When Mail in Lion detects duplicate messages in a mailbox, it groups them together and shows the link in the header "x Duplicates", where x is the number of duplicate messages found. When that link is clicked the duplicate messages show in the mailbox separately. But I'd like Mail to stop grouping them together to begin with.
    Running OS X 10.7.3 and Mail 5.1

    To disable automatic grouping of duplicate messages, quit Mail then run this command in Terminal:
         defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool true
    To revert to the default setting, run this command:
         defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool false
    or simply delete the setting altogether with this command:
         defaults delete com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates
    If you want to see how Mail behaves with this setting enabled, but without modifying your preference file, start Mail from Terminal with this command:
         /Applications/Mail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail -AlwaysShowDuplicates YES
    I learned of Mail's modifiability (is that a word?) from here:
         http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=2004101603285984
    and here:
         http://erikslab.com/2007/07/16/os-x-mailapp-logging/
    I found the AlwaysShowDuplicates option by looking for interesting words similar to 'duplicates' in the Mail executable like this:
              strings /Applications/Mail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail | grep -i duplicat

  • How to ENABLE detection of duplicate messages in Mavericks Mail?

    Hello,
    There was a good discussion of how to disable detection of duplicate messages in Lion mail - https://discussions.apple.com/message/18265121#18265121
    but unfortunately nothing seems to work to turn them ON in Mavericks.
    In Lion or Mt. Lion I do see duplicate messages - but in Mavericks I do not - but I want to see if there are duplicates for a variety of reasons.
    In the post referenced above none of the command line suggestions seem to make a difference. My mail perference settings are idential on each system, be it Lion, Mr. Lion or Mavericks. Settings as follows:
    Please note 'include related messages' seems to make no difference either way.
    Can anyone please tell me how to display duplicates in Mavericks. Thank you very much in advance.
    E.

    As a quick update, the following command DOES in fact show the duplicates in the mail folder:
              defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool true
    So, if there are two exact messages (one sent to me at [email protected] and one forwarded to that email address and sent to me at [email protected], BOTH will show up as separate messages.
    But to be clear, what I want to see is a single message with the '1 Duplicate' indicated in the message header.
    Any way to do that in Mavericks?
    Again, thanks in advance.

  • How do I find duplicate messages in Apple Mail?

    Hi,
    How do I find (and delete) duplicate messages in Apple Mail ?
    I will have to verify about 1000 messages in different mailboxes, all in Apple Mail.
    My system: Mail 4.5 (1084) and Leopard 10.6.8.
    Many thanks,
    D.M.

    in any window on a mac, if you just type a letter on the keyboard, the selection in that window will go to a file beginning with that name.   In Eudora, if mail window was sorted by NAME and you typed "E" the selection would move to the last email received from a person who's NAME began with "E",  if you typed "El" it would move to the most recent email received from a person named "El"  if you typed "Ela"  the selection would move to the most recent email received from a person named "Ela".   If mail was sorted by SUBJECT, it would move to the SUBJECT with those same beginning letters.   In mac mail the selection doesn't pick the most recent email, but a completely random one, and it doesn't differentiate between subjects and senders.   If I type "josh" it goes to an email with subject: josh, from 2011, not the most recent email from my friend josh that I got yesterday, even though I have my mail sorted by name.   If I type "Karen", selection moves to an email received from Karen in 2010, not the one I received 2 weeks ago.    In other words, it's completely random and useless. 
    only way to find something in macmail is to type a name into search box, then organize by name, then scroll to that name, only sometimes those name emails are not sorted by date, so you have to look through to find the most recent one.  then once you found it, you need to delete what's in the search box, and reset the sortation to be by date in order to have a chronological listing of you emails.  In other words, many complicated steps instead of one simple one. 

  • Apple Mail shows duplicate message in Sent mailbox - HOW TO FIX IT?

    I have sent a message with Apple Mail 7.3 on Mac with OS X Mavericks 10.9.3, and it shows DUPLICATED in the Sent mailbox of Mail. I mean, two entries with the very same message inside are displayed, yet, as said, I only sent it once! I am using POP.
    Selecting "Mailbox - Rebuild", quitting and opening Mail, repairing permissions with Apple Disk Utility, restarting the Mac, and even resetting the PRAM does not fix it.

    Any idea on how to prevent this duplication behavior (beyond deleting one of such messages, which, of course, I can do); I mean, to fixing whatever is corrupted and prevent such behavior happening again in the future?
    What is the equivalent of "MessageSorting.plist" in Mavericks to do what indicates the above article?
    Thanks.
