Is there a way to search for and delete duplicate photos in iPhoto.

In the course of copying events and photos from one computer to another I've ended up with multiple copies of thousands of pictures. I've organized them both by name and by date and been deleting the duplicates manually, but there are just so many it would take a thousand years. thanks

  • Is there a way to automatically detect and delete duplicate photos in a library

    I just imported a load of photos into my main iPhoto '11 Library from several older MAC's Photo Libraries. Despite repeatedly using the "Don't Import Duplicate Photos" dialogue box, I have many duplicate photos. Is there a way to automatically detect and delete Duplicate Photos?
    I also have iPhoto Library Manager installed on my MAC, but cannot seem to locate on it anything that would do this.
    I have over 4,000 photos, so would really appreciate some help here! Thanks in advance...

    And NEVER import an iPhoto library into another iPhoto library - doing so des not work and creates massive duplication
    if you still have all of the original iPhoto libraries I recommend you drag the bad one you created to the desktop (delete it later when everythin has successfully been completed) and start over usin iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  to merge the libraries

  • Is there a way to search for and install all uninstalled fonts? I'm getting bored of opening all the files up.

    I've got a file of about 100 typefaces, which is 1000s of fonts. I want to install them all but I dont want to have to open each file and install them all individually (or in small groups).
    So is there a way to search for and install ALL uninstalled fonts in one hit?
    Cheers.

    The best solution I've come across so far is to dump all movies into a shareware app called iVI. It'll show whether each movie has subtitles or not.

  • How to find and delete duplicate photos in iPhoto

    How do I fins and delete duplicate photos in iPhoto?

    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)
    HOWEVER, only try the above if you are seeing the duplicates in the iPhoto window.  If you are seeing duplicate images via the Finder then you probably do not have duplicates.  That's because at a minimum iPhoto will have two separate image files of each photo, the original and the thumbnail file. If the photo is a portrait oriented photo from a camera with the auto-rotate feature there will be a 3rd, modified image file in iPhoto, the rotated version.
    So be sure where you're seeing these duplicates.

  • How do I identify and delete duplicate photos in iPhoto. It is so simple on iTunes

    There really is no easier way than to use Duplicate Annihilator. It costs about $8.00 but will save you lots of time.

  • Organizing and deleting Duplicate Photos in iPhoto library?

    Can I easily organize and delete duplicate photos in my iPhoto library?

    These applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
    iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
    PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
    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 the library.
    DeCloner - $19.95 - can find duplicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
    DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
    iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
    PhotoDedupo - $4.99 (App Store) -  this app has a "similar" search feature which is like PhotoSweeper's bitmap comparison.  It found all duplicates
    Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free - was able to recognize the duplicated HDR and normal files from an iPhone shooting in HDR
    Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: iphoto 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 there are only twp apps that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates:  PhotoSweeper and Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto.  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 different 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.

  • How do I find and delete duplicate photos in iPhoto?

    I have used iPhoto for many years and I have quite an extensive collection (13k+) and I am sure that I have many many duplicates. Is there a way to find and delete simply any duplicates that have consumes my library?

    That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.

  • Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab?

    Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab? When there was support for Google Toolbar, I was able to do this; now, whenever I want to search for something, I have to open a new tab to do it, and cut-and-paste my search into the search field in the new tab. I used to be able to highlight, drag, and drop something into the search field and have it automatically open in a new tab. This is enough for me to switch to Chrome . . .

    Set a preference to have searches from the Search Bar (upper right) automatically open all searches in a new tab
    #type '''about:config''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
    #if you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
    #Filter = '''browser.search.openintab'''
    #in the lower panel, double click the item (or right-click and choose "Toggle") to change the value to "true"
    #close the about:config tab and test
    #See:

    About Google toolbar............
    Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer version. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

  • Is there a way to search for audiobooks or books in different languages?

    Hi well my question is very simple. My native language is Spanish but I am a German citizen and I would like to read one or the other book in Spanish or listen to audiobooks in Spanish. But if I want to search for these products in my German iTunes-Store I will only get the newest German books or German audiobooks.Is there a way to search for an audio book or a book in Spanish or other languages? Thank you very much!!!

    Exactly that -- the procedure is described in the online Help: InDesign Help | Text variables
    Now every time you insert the variable named "# of potatoes", you'll see the text "50" appear (with a minimal rectangular marker to indicate it's a variable), and when you want another number of potatoes, all you have to do is adjust the text in the Variables dialog.

  • Is there a way to search for movies on iTunes that have subtitles?

    Is there a way to search for movies on iTunes that have subtitles?
    I know if you look at any individual movie, it will say CC and below that, it will tell you if closed captioning is available in English or another language. I'm just wondering if there is some way to search for all the movies that have this available since many of them don't.

  • Any way to search for and get rid of duplicate songs?

    Is there any way to recognize and then get rid of duplicate songs? I copied some songs from a different computer and ended up duplicating some of my existing songs. Any way to search for and then get rid of the duplicates?

    The apple algorithm for detecting duplicates is not great. I did this yesterday on a library which had got bloated by various itunes 'organisations' and had 15000 songs in it and downloaded idupe. It seemed to work very well and got me down to 10,000 songs. 8USD shareware.

    Check the drive health with the free demo of SMART Utility.

    Reformatting and zeroing out might keep a drive going a bit longer, but once bad blocks become noticeable, it's not a drive you should trust any longer.
