Photoshop 9 - Duplicate Photos

Is there a setting, or a program that will give the option to import duplicate photos or only to import new photos?
Thanks

There is no such setting....
But Duplicates are not imported into a catalog !

    John,
    I have PSE 4 on an old laptop so I took a quick look and my conclusion is no v4 does not have Suggest Photo Stacks.
    Find with Visual Similarity is in v4 and I did do a Catalog > Recover with the build Similarity Index choice as preparation for using that Find feature. However using Visual Similarity on any signficant number of photos would seem very tedious.   Of course it could be done systematically on a few photos each time over an extended number of days - but still tedious.

  • How do I find exact duplicate photos in photoshop elements 10?

    Hello everyone,
    Just installed PSE10 on my windows 8 pro machine I got with a scanner.  I am using the organizer and I tried the find>Visual Searches>Search for Duplicate photos but I got photos that were simillar and exact.  I have a lot of exact duplicates that I want to delete, but don't want to delete the picutres that are similar.  Can I change the parameters by which PSE10 uses to restrict the output to exact duplicates?
    Thanks

    I've moved this conversation to iLife - iPhoto for MAC. Apologies for any inconvenience.

    Newer versions have similarity recognition software but in PSE6 you have to do it manually.

  • Deleting Duplicate Photos - Photoshop Elements

    Is there a way to delete duplicate photos in viewer? I seem to have two sets of almost every picture. Thank you.

    Well Buko,
    If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port
    And the bus is interrupted at a very last resort
    And the access of the memory makes your floppy disk abort
    Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.
    If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash
    And the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash
    And your data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash
    Then your situation's hopeless, and your system's gonna crash!
    If the label on the cable on the table at your house
    Says the network is connected to the button on your mouse
    But your packets want to tunnel unto another protocol
    That's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall,
    And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss
    So your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse
    Then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang
    'Cuz sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang!
    When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy in the disk
    And the macrocode instructions cause unnecessary risk
    Then you'll have to flash the memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM.
    Quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!

  • Duplicates Photos

    A few weeks ago, we were not using Photoshop Album Starter Edition. We were using some other kind of tool which is really a tool to manage files, not photos. It had nice photos features like thumbnails and slide show, etc.. But to manage them, catalog them, classify them... we were creating folders.
    A file can only go in one folder at a time. So we were.... copying... the file over to multiple folders. What a waste of disk space. Each file I was copying I hated it.
    Now we are in heavens!
    When I imported all my 26000 photos into PASE, I noticed that it complained about a lot of photos that it could not import. Are those photos the duplicate photos, the copies? I tried to find duplicate photos in my PASE catalog but could not find any. Maybe I was unlucky, or maybe they are not in the PASE catalog because the import discarded them?
    I would like to get ride (permanently delete) all duplicate files from my hard drive to reclaim space. Is there an easy way to do this with PASE? If not, any recommendations to make the job easier would be most welcome. I do not want to go thru 26000 files one by one to search for duplicates.
    Thanks.

    Kenneth, no I did not. Seems like I'll have to make a small script to handle that (I am a developper).
    I found out because after I imported I saw a notice telling me some duplicate files were not imported and I discarded the notice too fast. When I was tagging files I realized some files were in a directory that was not the primary directory where this file should be in and after digging I found out it imported only one of the file and I then remembered about the notice.

  • How do I remove multiple duplicate photos in a catalog PSE 10

    I have multiple duplicate photos in my Photoshop Element 10 catalog - I have run across the compare a photo tutorials but I have possiblely some 200+ photos that are duplicates.
    Has anyone come across a simpler way to remove duplicate photos?

    If I use Dup Scout or another similar utility, and it removes the duplicates from the hard drive, won't I end up with many links to now deleted files
    Yes, but then using the "Reconnect All Missing Files" function in PSE will allow you to abort the reconnection and choose to delete all the missing files from the catalog.
    As always, first experiment with a very small subset of the images to see if that method will work for you.

  • Duplicate photos in catalog......

    Hi
    I've  been engaged in a project to clean-up my Photoshop Elements catalog for  several months now...   so far, without success.   What spurred me to  do this was getting into a situation where I had (literally) thousands  of duplicate photos in my catalog -- and I had no idea how they got  there....
    So, since this problem started, I have
    a) moved to a new PC (not b/c of this problem -- but it did give me a clean slate)
    b)  upgraded from Elements 7 to Elements 9 (I did that b/c I thought if  somehow this was a bug maybe it would be fixed in Elements 9)
    c) completely deleted Elements and all its catalogs so I was starting from a completely clean slate
    d) gone back to loading photos from my camera cards in an attempt to start from scratch
    So,  I started by loading photos from just one of my camera cards (about 500  photos).   Everything was looking good -- the photos got loaded into  Elements; I started to put them into albums; everything was going  swimmingly.
    Then,  I took some new photos and plugged in my camera.  I have the option set  in "Preferences" to "Copy New Files Only".  However, when Elements  proceeded to do its stuff.....   instead of saying "I found 15 new  photos" it proceeded to reload (as new) everything on the camera card --  i.e. all 500-odd photos.   Now, when I look in the "shot date"  directories, I have duplicates of all photos -- such as, DSC_0054 and  DSC_0054-1; DCS_0055 and DSC_0055-1 etc etc etc...   so now I have 1000  photos in my catalog....   and lots and lots of duplciates.  Which is  exactly the problem I started with :-(
    I  thought this had happened originally because I was doing something  wrong...    but I know I did nothing at all wrong here...  I've been  able to track exactly what I did and I just don't think there is any  reason why Elements should have reloaded as new all of the photos it had  already loaded and put in the catalog.
    I'm  curious....   has anyone else seen this kind of behavior?  Does anyone  know what causes it?    Honestly, I'm just about ready to give up on  Elements  -- what good is it if it can't even simply detect and identify  duplicate photos from the camera that it has already loaded?  Isn't  that kind of "digital photo 101" stuff???   I described this problem to a  professional photographer friend, and she suggested that I not use  Elements to offload photos from the camera but only to catalog and edit  things once they are on the disk.  Frankly, if that's what is needed to  make this software work that seems kind of ridiculous....
    In case this is of interest, I am running Windows XP and my camera is a Nikon D40.
    Any help suggestions much appreciated.

    Thanks for your response....   What I would really like is to prevent the problem happening in the first place.   It really seems to me
    that Elements is just behaving in a  buggy manner...  it had already offloaded thoses 500 photos -- why did it do that again? 
    It's interesting.   I've since (as an experiement) added yet more photos to the camera card in question and offloaded them through Elements and this time it did only detect the new photos.   Why does it sometimes work and sometimes not? 
    I'd  be curious to knwo if others have run into this behavior and if anyone knows of the cause? 

  • Why doesn't duplicate photo finder work in Prem El 12?

    Premier Elements 12, new HP PC, Win 8.1, lots of storage/memory.    ~14K pictures and I'd like to start to trim out the duplicates.  While in Premier Elements 10 the Organizer's Duplicate photo feature under Find seemed to work pretty well, the one in PremEl 12 does not work; brings up stacks of photos that are not even similar, much less duplicates.   What gives?

    Dave0518
    Photoshop Elements 12 (photo editor) and Premiere Elements 12 (video editor) are standalone program, each with the Elements Organizer 12. When these programs are on the same computer, they share the same Elements Organizer catalog. All that being said, since your issue is with Elements Organizer and it identification "Duplicate Photos"  not videos,
    I would suggest that you might repost your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum for a boarder perspective on your situation.from people such as Barbara Brundage, MichelBParis, et al.
    The following is an example of what I mean about the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum and this type of question.
    Elements Organizer 12 duplicates files when Getting Photos and Videos
    Please let us know the outcome when you get a chance.
    Thank you.

  • Revel Private Albums create duplicate photos in Elements 12

    The problem is: some photos are duplicated in Photoshop Elements 12.  The duplicates appear after sharing a 'Private Web Album' to Adobe Revel.  The Private Web Album works correctly:  In Photoshop Elements, it is listed as a 'Mobile Album.'   Online, on Adobe Revel, the album is created and the photos are available.
    After a while, the same photos are copied back to the computer's hard drive, and added to the Elements catalog.  The original photo remains in the correct location (C:\Users\John\Pictures\...) The new duplicate photo is added to the C:\Adobe Revel\... folder.
    Any ideas?  Thanks!
    PhotoShop Elements 12.1, Windows 8.1

    Hi John,
    Since you are using the same Adobe ID for both services, duplication is happening. Please try this-
    create a mobile album in left pane, add some files that you want to share, click on the Share icon present infront of album name in Mobile Albums panel, and share.
    Thanks

  • Elements 9 duplicate photos

    Is there any way of deleting a mass of duplicate photos. These appeared when I first downloaded from my external hard drive. Is this not possible to delete enmass in elements 9 or will I have to upgrade?

    I'm not quite sure why you would think that Photoshop Elements would duplicate your existing photos. If you have had Elements 9 installed previously, and have a catalog, the new installation will utilize that catalog. However, Elements isn't going to automatically duplicate all of your images. Images are never actually "in" Elements. Elements simply points to the images wherever they are located on your system.

  • How can I find duplicate photos without going through all 5000  one at a time?

    How can I find duplicate photos withough going through all 5000 one by one?  I have numerous duplications and used to be able to click on Edit and Find Duplicates and could clean up all the duplicates easily.  Now that option is gone.  I still have lots to delete.

    I do backup everything using Carbonite.Please don't tell me it is bad, too :-)  Also, especially with photo files, I do have other backups of those I am concerned about. Probably not the best in the world, but a log better than many people who I know about.
    Again, I really have not seen any problems with MacKeeper.  I imagine that if people do not read and follow instructions, they could have problems. For example, it is possible to scan all your files and see them in order of size. If you start deleting things, without knowing what you're deleting, you could cause trouble. Even when the computer scans for so-called junk files, you can look at them and decide for yourself if they are truly junk. I've never seen any that were not.
    So, I will look at the complaints anyway to see them. I am open to change, although I hope I do not need to drop Mackeeper as it does things like keeping tracking of applications updates that I need. Please note that I definitely am not a MacKeeper employee or anything close. Just using it and happy with the the results.
    I did download the recommend file for finding photo dupes and ran it.  There were very few duplicates, in any case, As I said before, the MacKeeper dupe finder was very slow when I ran it over ALL my files. That was a year ago and it did find many non-text dupes.

  • HT204022 i have several copies of my photos on my ipad under photos not photo stream    There is no delete button when I tap the duplicate photos.  How do I delete these pleas?

    I have 4 and 5 copies of my photos under photos on my ipad.  I do not have a delete button to delete them.  Also, my icloud is upto date but my new photos are no longer streamimg to my photo stream.

    Before deleting anything be sure they are actually duplicate photos.  If you create an album on your phone, then add photos to it from your camera roll, the photos in the album are not duplicates; they only contain links to the actual photos in camera roll.  (Albums are like music playlists; they don't contain the actual photo but just a link to it so that you can look at a subset of your photos.)  Thus, if you delete the photo from the camera roll it will be deleted from all albums that may have contained it (just as a song would be deleted from any playlist that contained it if you deleted the song from your music library).
    Similarly, photos synced to your iPad from your computer are all contained in the photo library.  Just like albums created on your phone, any albums synced to your phone will only contain links to the actual photos in the photo library.  If you delete the photo from the photo library, it will be deleted from any albums that may contain it as well.  This video may help explain this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60MevRF53ck&feature=channel&list=UL.
    All that said, you can delete photos from the camera roll by either opening them individually and tapping the trash can icon, or by opening the camera roll in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, tapping all the photos you want to delete, then tapping the Delete button at the bottom.   To delete photos synced to your iPad from your computer you have to delete them by connecting your iPad to your computer, going to the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, unchecking the photos you no longer want on your iPad, then syncing.  Photos in photo stream are deleted by opening the photo, then tapping the trash can icon.
