Just starting to use aperture. is there a way to find and delete duplicate pix?

I'm working on a huge project and there are duplicates here and there. Is there a way to delete all duplicates from projects--or at least an easier way to do it then 1 by 1?

Aperture has no built-in tools to detect duplicates. There are some nice tools to detect duplicates in iPhoto libraries, so if you treat your Aperture library as an iPhoto library, you might give these applications a try:  see the post by Old Toad:

    Is there a way to find and erase duplicate emails in mail.app?

    Mail.app does not have this possiblility acc. to Apple. There are Scripts but not provided by Apple.
    A solution can be to use third party software but I prefer Apples own software so have to wait until there is an update.

  • I have a lot of duplicate songs on my iPhone 4--Is there an easy way to find and delete duplicates?

    Is there an easy way to find and delete duplicate songs on an IPhone 4?

    A belated hello.  On the topic of duplicate songs / tracks showing up in, say, your iPhone Music app but not in your iTunes Library, with these versions installed ....
    iTunes 10.5
    iPhone 4 running on iOS 5
    .... I discovered this too.  This is what I did:
    1. purchased full album from the iTunes Store
    (once download completed, album magically showed up in iPhone Music app, as expected, without having to sync)
    2. I then went to my iTunes Music view and edited the album year (Multiple Item Information)
    3. Synced
    4. All album tracks showed up in duplicate in iPhone Music app (but not in iTunes view)
    Solution:
    1. in iTunes, I changed back the album year to the one iTunes Store originally downloaded
    2. Re-synced
    3. Now all album tracks show up but no longer in duplicate in iPhone Music app
    Lesson learned: When purchasing music from iTunes Store, leave metadata untouched.

  • Is there a way to find and replace prices in an Indesign document from a CSV file?

    Is there a way to find and replace prices in an Indesign document from a CSV file. Currenty I have a catalog with codes and prices in tables. I need to find a way to look up the code (and new price) in the CSV file and overwrite the price in the current table with the new price. Does anyone know of a script to run this quickly?

    Hi,
    Try this
    1) with all the images showing, got to Find -> By caption or Note
    2) enter the caption you are looking for Image Description and click on OK
    It should display all the ones with that caption
    3) select a few images as a test
    4) go to Edit -> Add caption to selected items
    5) if you want to blank out the captions just check the box to replace the caption and click on ok
    6) You will need to confirm the blank captions
    You could use a similar procedure to change the caption to something else.
    Good luck

  • I recently changed jobs and no longer have access to the computer that contained my Firefox bookmarks. I don't have a Firefox profile. Is there any way to find and transfer my bookmarks to my new computer?

    I recently changed jobs and no longer have access to the computer that contained my Firefox bookmarks. I don't have a Firefox profile. Is there any way to find and transfer my bookmarks to my new computer?

    If you don't have access to the old computer any longer, '''no'''. Unless you were using something like the Google Toolbar & Google Bookmarks or Xmarks, which would have your bookmarks in an online account that you could access. Firefox doesn't include an online storage feature for personal data, yet. That is coming in a future version.
    If you have a friend at your old job maybe they have access to that old PC and they could export your bookmarks to a file and email that file to you.

  • I have 8000  photos in my iPhoto library.  Many are duplicated in the "Pictures" folder in the Finder.  Is there an easy way to detect and delete duplicates in the "Pictures" folder?

    Anyone know how to detect and delete duplicate photo files that exist in the Pictures folder in the Finder that are also in the iPhoto library?

    There's no way to compare the photos in the library with those outside the library.  However, as long as you're running a "managed" library
    You can import batches of the photos, i.e by folder, into the library.  If the photo is already in the library you will be given this notice:
    Check that checkbox and clik on the Don't Import button.  When that folder is finished importing (or not) delete it and go to the next.
    If you need to check for duplicates in the library you can use one of these applications to identify and remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
    iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
    Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free
    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.

  • Is there a way to merge or delete duplicate bookmarks?

    I imported bookmarks and now I have duplicates. Is there a quick and easy way to merge or delete duplicate bookmarks, like there is with Contacts?

    Open the Bookmarks section of your browser and delete the ones you do not need or want.  I know of no macro commands that one can use to delete them.
    Ciao.

  • Do you know of a simple way of sorting and deleting duplicate photos on  aperture

    Hi , Do you know of a simple way of sorting and then deleting duplicate photos on Apeture.
    Thanks Phil

    There is no simple way. The best strategy really is to take care not to import duplicates.
    What is your Aperture 3 version?
    What kind of duplicates are you asking about? 
    If you imported exactly the same file multiple times, sorting your images in the Finder by filename or creation date will display them side by side.
    If you have diferently sized versions of the same image, edited versions, or versions converted to a different format, then sorting by creation date will not help; you might try to sort by capture date, but that may fail, if there were different imezone settings when you imported the images.
    You could also sort be filename, if you did not rename the images on import.
    If you renamed your versions, adjusted the date, modified the file properties by writing to the original files, try to sort by other tages - faces, location, keywords.
    There are some helper applications to scan your Aperture library and tag duplicates: (I have not really tested any of them)
    Duplicate Annihilator (Mac) - Download  good to detect accidentally imported thumbnails
    http://photosweeper.en.softonic.com/mac  : This app can actually detect edited duplicates based on statistic measures and histogram similarity.

  • Is there an easy way to detect and delete duplicate home videos?

    For some reason when I upload videos from my video camera I end up with two versions on my harddrive. A smaller version and a lager one. I have also had some other issues with iPhoto in the past that caused me to have to make a copy of a video before I could play it. All that to say, now I am out of memory and need to clean up this mess. I have hundreds of videos to go through and am wondering if there is an easier way to do this besides just going through and checking each pair to trash the smaller/duplicate version.

    Seems to me that the videos would import at the same time, so if you have all the vids in the same folder viewed in list view, you could sort by date. All the vids hould list with the large version right above (or below) the small version. simply select every other video, noting the file size as you go, and delete.

  • Is there a way to Find and or Audit SPS2013 I need to locate 1 user

    I have been asked to find out where 1 user has access to in the site collection and it has about 40 sub-sites.  is there a way to audit on a user.

    If I understand your query exactly, I would suggest you enable auditing on SharePoint that will let you audit SharePoint 2013 changes.
    You may checkout this SharePoint auditing tool (http://www.sharepointauditing.com/) that provides the option to track all the critical changes into real time and provides the data at granular level.

  • Just starting to use InDesign CS2 and can't pull up my previous Pagemaker files; what do I do?

    Just starting to use InDesign CS2 and can't pull up my previous Pagemaker files; says "damaged and cannot be recovered"
    How can I retrieve those?

    I have no idea what "diagnostic recompose" is...
    Step 3 in this linked technote will show you how to do a diagnostic recompose - on a Mac. Instructions for doing it on Windows are out there somewhere, I'll try to find 'em if you can't. The technote tells you to remove graphics from master pages; I'd also unembed graphics (make sure all graphics are linked, not stored in the PageMaker doc) in order to try to get it to open up in ID.
    I'm sure there are more things you can try, if that doesn't work, but my broken-PageMaker-doc skills are pretty rusty.
    Also, you may want to edit your response on the forums webpage, and delete it from your future email-replies, so your email address and phone number aren't preserved for all to see on the forums, forever.
    Edit: Step 3, not step 4

    I have just started to use Muse for our design agency and learning how to build ourselves a new site, I have managed to create a basic lightbox which contains sliding images, what I need to do now is have a pop up window which goes into detail about the projects, what I would like is a piece of text  or icon that when you roll over it and then click a separate window pops up with additional information in, once finished reading the info you can then click to close the box, any advice on how to do this?

    The best way to do what you're asking is with the Composition widget. Start with the Tooltip preset, which, by default shows the info on rollover. You can change the option to show on click, which is what you're after. You can also add the close button or have the info disappear on rollout.

  • I cant access any of the content that was in my music library that was set up on my old destroyed laptop. so Home Share cant be used.  Is there a way to pull all of the music content, not just iTune purchased music from my 4th Gen Nano back into iTuunes?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    The music sync is one - way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases.
