I want to remove ALL duplicate images from my mac...

My apologies if this has been addressed before however, I have just discovered my mac has over 10,000 images on it but only 3700 in iphoto! Is there an easy, free way of detecting all of these images & either 1/seperating them or 2/deleting them?
thanks for your help...

There are two apps, actually one app and one Applescript script, for finding and removing duplicate photos from iPhoto. They are:
Duplicate Annihilator
iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates- free
They both work somewhat the same. The script required a little more attention by you.

How do I remove all duplicate images from my IPad 4? They are clogging up hard drive

I have a lot of images on this iPad from a major journey that i am on. Most are.in albums.. I want to further organise them but many have randomly duplicated. Some several times over. These images have filled up the hard drive as a result. So I cannot continue to organise the images. I have tried to use photomanager pro in order to set up sub folders, but cannot import the media as dive is full. Please can someone advise how to 1. Remove all duplicates and 2. Avoid repetition of this situation.
Thanks....

How to remove all duplicate values from a column

For some reason when a user is adding a record, it duplicates it three times. Why is that happening?
Since there is many how can I remove any records that contains a duplicate in a specific column?

Is this happening for all lists in site collection or this is the only one?
Check on the list if there is any workflow attached. If yes then open the workflow in designer and check its logic it might be written to copy list items.
Investigate if there is an event receiver deployed in your site where it creates duplicate entries. There has to be some custom code running which is causing this duplication otherwise out of the box behavior of lists is never like this.

I want to remove all YAHOO files from my computer. HOW ???

When I launch Firefox, I get a YAHOO search window , and I don't want anything to do with YAHOO -- how do I change it to Google search, like was before I installed Firefox 4 ??

Not 100% sure of your question. If you are wanting to delete apps from itunes just right click then delete then empty recycle bin.

When I try to sync photos from iphoto from my Macbook to my Ipad 1 I get query do I want to remove all my apps from my iPad and that all data included in those apps will be deleted. Help

When trying to sync some photos from Iphoto to my ipad I get a message asking me if Iwish to continue as all my apps will be deleted if I do. How can I overcome this?

Has your iPad been synced to a different computer?
Do you have apps on your iPad that were purchased with a different iTunes account than the one you use on your computer?
Have your ever successfully synced to your own computer before?

Removing all personal information from e-Mac.

I have just purchased a new i-Mac and whilst I have no problem in transfering all of my stored information from the e-Mac to the i-Mac I am concerned about erasing every bit of personal information from the machine, from e-mail access information to any passwords stored on the machine. How can I be sure that this is all done yet have a saleable e-Mac with all of it's software intact?

The easiest way is to put a new installation of your OS onto the Mac.
Insert your Install disk 1 into to the drive and then Restart, and hold down the C key to take you to the installation windows.
Select your language, the start up Volume and choose Erase and Install.
At the point your registration process starts, abandon the registration, quit and eject the disk and switch of the computer.
This will allow the new user a freshly installed system, whereby they can complete the registration process themselves. Make sure you hand on the disks.
If you want to be extra thorough, you can, booted from your Install disk, use Disk Utility to Zero All Data, before doing the Erase and Install described above, and if you want to be paranoid thorough, you can choose to overwrite the disk with several passes before doing the installation described first. Note this latter process can take from several hours to several days depending on the selection and the size of your internal hard drive.

Remove all duplicate photos

How can I remove all duplicate photos from all my albums on revel?

I believe that this is related to iTunes. When iTunes loads the photos to the phone, it downsamples photos synced to the phone, which means they are not the same size, and therefore are not exactly the same photo from revel's point of view. To Visually, these files look the same, but Revel regards them as unique files and imports them.
We first do an "import" which brings in the small previews so you can see them. We finish that numbered countdown THEN we upload the originals and say we are "syncing" .When cloudy (the little cloud icon) is working, you should have the chasing arrows. If they exit the Revel app while we are uploading we continue to upload for 10 min in the background and then stop and issue a notification.If you start a big upload and minimize Revel to the tray and never go back into Revel, Delete the photos from the device, THEN go back into Revel, then you get into this situation.
You should only delete things off the device once cloudy indicates the "library is up to date" You can check this by opening the library and noticing if there is a cloudy status in the library view. If there isn't a cloud icon you can check the settings panel and see cloudy there. If originals haven't uploaded completely on the device, then cloudy will be in the library view and indicate activity.
Here are our suggestions:
1.Ensure all original photos are safely backed up outside of Revel (eg, saved on the desktop, external hard drive, etc.)
2. Going forward, please keep Revel open and running, until the sync is complete. (click on the cloud icon to see upload status)
3. If it’s important to preserve the original images in Revel cloud storage rather than the downsized ones from itunes, you will need to remove images that now have or did ever have duplicates, and upload the photos again. Since iTunes syncing can’t copy originals back to the device, this means you will need to upload from the Revel Mac app, or upload from your computer (Mac or Win) by signing into your account in a web browser at www.adoberevel.com .

How can I remove all the music from my iPhone?

I want to remove all the music from my iPhone 5 (Current iOS) and then load a completely new set of songs from my Mac (Current OS).
How do I do that ?
Even when I define a specific new playlist and tell it to apply only that it still does not remove the unwanted songs.
Thanks !

I feel I've explained plenty what you must do but you aren't getting it.
All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPhone in the same way it was transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
Since you prefer the manual way, you must manually drag and drop the same 377 songs from your iTunes library to your new iPhone - in the same way the 377 songs were manually transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone.
Or you can sync which provides more options overall. Create an iTunes playlist for the 377 songs. Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Select the iTunes playlist below that includes the 377 songs followed by a sync.

How do you remove duplicate images from your all images file on your mac desktop

How do you remove duplicate images from your all images file on your mac desktop?

Don't under any circumstances.
All images is not a file. It's not a place. It's a list. Specifically, it's the result of an instruction: List all the images on my machine.
When you delete something from All Images, then you have no idea what you're removing from where - files that are part of word processing docs, interface elements, corrupting your iPhoto Library. There are many perfectly legitimate reasons why you might have what appears to be duplicates but are not.
Rule number One: Never delete anything on your machine whose job you don't understand.

I want to remove all of my photos out of iPhoto there are approximately 35000 some imported from an old hard drive and a SD Card from my Nikon D500 how do I do this

I want to remove all of my photos out of iPhoto there are approximately 35000 some imported from an old hard drive and a SD Card from my Nikon D500 how do I do this?
I have iPhoto version 9.1.5 (615)
Mac OS X version 10.6.8
I want to do this because when I imported from my old hard drive there was an error message stating that 12 photos were not imported as the programm did not recognise the format even though they were jpegs like the other photos in that particular album. The dates of the photo folders are wrong I have multiple copies of photos and every time I start iPhoto I get the following message 12 photos have been found in the iPhoto library that were not imported would you like to import them No or Yes
if you press Yes the same message comes back again and if you press Yes again the program flicks to last import for 2 seconds and then opens events.
if you press No the message The photos have been placed in the folder/user/judith/pictures/iphoto Library recovered photos then if you press OK the original message 12 photos have been found.............
if you press No at this point the message The photos have been placed in the folder/user /judith/pictures/iphoto Library recovered photos_11 the end number goes up by 1 every time you go through this process
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Did you import an iPhoto Library from the old Hard Drive? Do you still have that old Library?
The way to clear out a Library is to Export the photos - Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
For the annoying start-up message:
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

Hey baby birch
You are able to sync purchased content from your iDevice to a new computer as long as the comptuer is authorized
To authorize the computer follow these steps
At the topi of the screen next to File- Edit -View, click store then Authorize this computer.
Enter in your appleID email address and password and click authorize
**If you do not see the File Edit View option, At the very top left corner you should see a little square click the square and click show menu bar.
Now that your computer is authorized click the file menu button, then click Devices, then go to your iPhones name and then click Transfer purchases this will allow you to transfer all of your purchased content to the computer
Now if you want to transfer your non purchased content to the computer you can do so if you have wif and the previous computer on the same network as the new computer with home sharing
