PSE8 - Get Pics - 2,000
I have downloaded pics to the computer(s). Have more than 2,000 on this computer - from this one, old ones and different cameras. Not all are photos, some are census pages, courthouse or library shots, etc. for genealogy. Most are just loose on my computer (not in PSE). If I now say Get Pics - how will that be handled? Some of them will have the same names -such as defaults DSC00001, -002, etc. and other cameras probably used the same numbering system, so in addition to duplicates, triplicates and more of the same pics, some will be different pics. Some have been renamed from the default.
I just searched for DSC00001 and got 26, 7 of them appear to be different based on file sz and a small icon lower left. Is there a way to see larger thumbnails in a search without opening each file to compare? Maybe it isn't as bad as I thought, apparently a lot of them have been renamed.
With Get Pics, will PSE differentiate between same default numbered names with different dates the pics were taken, or different cameras? (Frequently I wanted the last few off the camera and just downloaded again) I know; I'm trying to clean up my mess and do better - starting now! .
Can I break them up in segments to make it smaller, therefore more manageable, For example, can I tell PSE to Get Pics DSC00001 and it will be limited just to that number?
?What to do?
Thanks. Since it's going to be a humongous task I have a current big task I better finish before I start. It's reassuring that duplicates, and more, will be considered separate pictures. Do you know if an upgrade to PSE10 before I start would ease the pain any?

First, the Organizer will not consider files as duplicates only because they have the same file name. I cannot tell you exactly which criteria it uses for that, but as you have seen, it can rename them if necessary.
When you 'get files', the organizer registers the files in its catalog (database) with their properties stored in the exif of the files : date taken or digitized, camera make and model etc.
Once they are in the catalog, use the 'find' menu to retrieve them by camera, date or other metadata.
For instance, you can find them by file name like DSC00001 by camera X on a given month.
Have a look both at the 'find' menu and the properties dialog (Alt Enter), this will give you an idea.
If you have organized a folder structure which is meaningful for you, you can select folders and assign a custom keyword to their contents : genealogy, travel, family events... This will help you manage your files even with duplicate file names.

Somehow when I take pics the go into my photo stream and not my camera roll. first issue
When I hook up to itunes on my Windows 7 computer only the camera roll shows up.
I don't know where to fix what file the pics go into and I don't know how to get pics from the stream onto the camera roll or some other file.
The same thing happens on my Iphone too so I'm sure it's pilot error. There's a lot of I don't know's in this question
Thanks anybody for your help

How to get pics and videos from mobile phone to Satellite L450D-128
Hi
I have a Satellite/Satellite L450D series/Satellite L450D-128 and i am a bit thick, i also have a samsung 5600 which i want to get pics/vids from - tried to connect my phonebut it couldnt connect the driver and seemed to be having lots of problems.
I thought maybe i could bluetooth from my phone to my lap top but dont think it has blue tooth?? Does it?? and if not can it??Hello
Is it necessary to use Bluetooth connection?
For my mobile phone I bought an external card reader. So I can copy the files from mobile phone to computer and backwards.
It costs maybe 10 Euro and therefore no additional driver is necessary! :)

In new upgrade is there a way to get pics back on caller id
In the new upgrade is there a way to get pics back on the caller ID when people call you or when you call our rather than just a plain black screen?
No, it's a design change with 7.1 and - like it or not, it is what it is. I preferred the old design as well.

My phone was stolen. I first backe up from the icloud but then synced with my computer and lost some pictures that are backed up on the cloud. How do I get pics from my old phone which are backed up on the cloud but are not in my photostream?
If you have an iCloud backup, restore it to your phone as explained here: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521. If you have a backup on your computer instead, restore it to your phone by connecting your phone to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Restore from Backup.

How do I get pic,s from my m.s. computer into my I pad 2. Thanks
attach your ipad to the computer.
Open iTunes
You'll see the ipad in the left side under 'devices'
click on it and then on the 'photos' tab in iTunes
you'll see the 'sync photos from' check box
check it and either navigate to any specific folder in your 'my pictures' folder, or any other singular folder you create
sync and the photos from your PC will be on your iPad -
