Many  duplicates are in my Photos. Is there a way to get rid of them not deleting one by one or dozen by dozen?

It seems, in old times we could make path to the original file from the IPhoto browser, couldn't we?
There is another question. If I succeed deleting duplicates from the Iphoto library with some third-party program, does it mean that I really free my hard disk of them? Will they disappear from Photos also?

  • I have smart playlists on my iphone that i never created and when i connect to itunes and go to "on my phone" they are not listed there but they are definately on my phone.  How do i get rid of them?

    I have smart playlists on my iphone that i never created, a couple of them are duplicated and I cant figure out how to delete them.  When i connect my phone to pc using Itunes these "Ghost" playlists do not even show up when I click "on my phone".  These lists are there and they do have songs and work, I just want to get rid of them and I dont know how.  Any help would be appreciated. 

    Okay. Try checking "manually manage music and videos", and then click the flippy triangle next to your device. Then select the items you want to delete and just press Delete on your keyboard.
    Uncheck when you're done.

  • Because I have imported from a number of different sources into Aperture (3.2) over the years, I now have many duplicates in my library.  Is there any way in which these can be identified and lated deleted?

    Because I have imported photos from a number of different sources into Aperture (3.2), I now have many unwanted duplicates.  Some of these are in the same "file/folder", others are not.  Additionally, some of the duplicates may have different file names.
    Can anyone advise me if there is a way of identifying such duplicates in Aperture so that I may later delete them?  If this cannot be achieved within Aperture 3, does anyone know of a proven second-party app?
    Before ending I should mention that I am reasonable competent on a computer but I am not in any way an expert.  (So simple answers would be appreciated if this is possible!)

    Jeremy -- I suggest making a complete separate copy of your Library and any Referenced Masters and keeping it for a year.  "Duplicate" is, to humans, relative rather than absolute.  My use of Duplicate Annihilator turned up many useful near duplicates, most of which I couldn't quickly distinguish.  With a complete copy nearby, you can be slightly aggressive in your pruning, knowing that should you turn up something in ten months that you need (as an example: the full-size color file for a black & white printed shot that you thought was based on a full-size color Master but which is not), you'll have it.
    IME, it was much more effective to get rid of things I didn't need, than to figure out which of several possible duplicates of an Image I did need.

  • Many Duplicate Files! What is the best way to get rid of them?

    I have many duplicate files from having to reinstall Leopard twice in two months on my Desktop. Is there a program that I can use to help clean up my hard drive? All these files are using up a lot of space and are getting annoying. I do not want to go through the files one at a time to delete. Thanks. I know about Spring Cleaning (I think that is what it's called) but was wondering if there were any other programs out there.

    Hello, TinkerTool and OnyX both have features to delete old folders, caches, previous iTunes libraries. You can find them on Apple's download site, just write them in the search window. You can also google in "clear duplicate files" and include your Mac model and find even more. The two I offered you to look at are fee and trusted. Use them with care.

  • Seven of my albums from iPhoto 9.5.1 are no longer visible. The photos are still in iPhoto - is there a way to get the metadata back?

    Seven of my albums from iPhoto 9.5.1 are no longer visible. The photos are still visible in iPhoto, but the albums are completely gone (another 10  albums are still visible). The missing albums are visible in iPhoto Library Manager (I downloaded the free version and when it loaded the library the missing albums were visible)
    About 6 months ago 4 different albums disappeared and I assumed my kids had accidentally deleted them; however, they haven't been allowed to touch the computer since then, so I can't blame them this time! Last time I lost albums I spent hours re-creating them but I am hoping that there is an easier way of getting the metadata to function again - I know I could create a new library with iphoto Library Manager but I would have to buy the full version and can't afford to do that.
    Not sure if it has anything to do with updating the application? (I updated recently and I'm not sure exactly when the albums disappeared.

    Use the rebuild function in iPhoto Library Manager. That does not require a purchase. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • PSE 7 - Share - Photo Mail - "Default Text" - how to get rid off them?

    Happy New Year to you all!
    I use PSE 7 (Vista, Home Premium) to send regularly pictures with the "Photo Mail" option under "Share".
    In PSE7, just as in the previous versions, I keep getting annoyed by the standard text "Here are the photos I want to share with you". This text is then repeated in the actual mail. I like to have it "blank" and not repeated in the actual mail.
    Second, in the generated mail we always get that lovely advertising for Adobe at the bottom of the generated message "I sent these photos using Adobe(R) Photoshop(R) Elements 7.0. Find out more: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshopelwin/" which, gagin I have to delete everytime. Is the an option somewhere (.ini file or the like, regedit?) to supress this?
    Third: That message "Here are...." gets automatically inserted into the subject of the generated message. Again: hot to get rid of this?
    Anyone an idea or is this something to post to Adobe's Wish List forum?
    Thanks,
    Alexander

    Go to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 7.0|Assets|locale\en_us(or wherever you are)\email\signatures and open the files there in a text editor, delete the ads and save.

  • Deleted photos, is there a way to get them back?

    I recently upgraded my old MacBook to a MacBook Pro and transfered all the files using my trusty back up from Time Capsule. I saved the old copy of all my pictures/videos on the desktop opened up iphoto 09 and there they were as if I hadn't let them. I went about deleting the file on the desktop (big mistake), the whole library went so now I have none.
    Problem is getting access to Time Capsule again is difficult because I am at Uni now in the other side of the country. Is there a way which I can get access to the back up for free some how?
    Alternatively on my iPhone some of the images are there not all as its too small a hard drive, but is there a way I can get them to come out of the events part of photos on the iPhone and save them on the Mac without having to email them over separately one by one?
    Thanks for reading and trying to help guys.

    There are a couple of apps that will recover the low quality images from your iPod to your Mac:
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/24832/ipod-access-photo is one. But there are others. Search on MacUpdate.
    Is there a way which I can get access to the back up for free
    There are various apps that will link back to an off-site Mac. Right now I couldn't find any, but my brain is addled a lot of the time. So google 'Mac Remote Access' or similar.

  • I have more than 7600 duplicates in itunes! I have no idea how this happened. How do I efficiently get rid of them without deleting one at a time?

    I have 7600 duplicates on my itunes account. I have no idea how this happened and want to delete the duplicates en mass.
    Is it possible? How would I do it?
    This happened just recently.
    I do have a backup on My Book that may not have the duplicates. Not sure I WANT TO GO NUCLEAR THOUGH AND DELETE ALL THE DUPLICATES.
    ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
    THANK YOU.
    TODD

    If you've recently created a bunch of duplicates then, with the main Music playlist showing, hold down Option (Mac) or Shift (PC) and then the menu File > Display Exact Duplicates. Sort the resulting list on the Date Added field, select the range of tracks representing the recent imports which you know to be duplicates and delete.
    To delete any older duplicates scattered through the library sort the list in a conventional order like Album by Artist and delete all but one copy of each cluster of identical tracks.
    Normally when you delete the duplicate entries from the library you will also want to delete the underlying files, however in certain circumstances it is possible for iTunes to make two separate entries to the same physical file on your hard drive. In this case deleting the file for the one entry will break the other one. If possible try to work out which type of duplicates you have before deleting any files, and check that the remaining entries play before emptying the trash.
