Remove duplicate photos from photos

I upgraded to OS 10.10.3 which then allowed me to move my library of 10,000+ photos from iPhotos to the new Apple Photos program. After I moved the library I noticed I had some duplicates in my library.  These duplicates are not from the upgrade. They were there before the move.
A year ago I used Duplicate Annihilator, a third party app, to remove the duplicates from iPhoto. It went through the iPhoto folder on my hard drive, identified the duplicates and allowed me to remove them. I cannot use this program/app now because there are no folders on my hard drive for Photos. They are all stored in iCloud.
Any suggestions on how to identify and remove duplicates on iCloud in Photos without going through my library of 10,000+ photos individually?

Not yet, but there should be one soon called PowerPhotos.

  • How can I identify and remove duplicate file (audio & photo)

    How can I identify and remove duplicate file (audio & photo)?  I have quite a few libraries created as backup files.

    Terence,
    Yes, the duplicates appear in the iPhoto window. I have folders with same name occuring two or even three times sometimes with exactly the same set of photos (ie photos with the same ID) and sometimes with a limited set of photos. Other  folders appear only once.
    I normally take my MacBook with me if I'm shooting a lot of photos, such as on holiday, and then want to transfer them to my iMac when i get home. Other times I transfer the camera's memory stick directly to my iMac.
    I have great difficulty transferring the photos from my MacBook to my iMac. I don't want to store my photos on my iDisk due to the length of time it takes to upload them.
    Thanks again.
    Simon

  • How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library

    How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library in iPhone 3G 16 giga?

    The only way to delete photos from the photo library is by the same way the photos were transferred to your iPhone - via the iTunes sync process.
    Are you saying a photo or all photos transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process are duplicated in your iPhone's Photo Library without being duplicated in the folder on your computer where these photos are stored?

  • HT204022 How do I remove photos from Photo Stream from my iPhone 4s?

    I am trying to delete some of my photos from Photo Stream on my iPhone 4s running on 5.0.1 When I mark the pictures on the phone that I want to delete there is no option to actually remove them. Is there a way that this can be done and if so how do I go about doing this?  can I do it from the phone directly or do I have to go through iTunes? If I have to do it through iTunes how do I also do this?
    Many thanks for all your help,

    You should be able to open you my photo stream folder in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to delete, tap Delete.

  • HT201302 i can not delete photos from photo library from my iPhone 4

    Delete them the same way you put them there.  The sync process.  Deselectg the album in itunes and sync.
    Photo Album contains ALL synced photos and you can also view those exact same photos, not duplicates, from the albums.

  • HT201317 how to delete photos from photo library iphone4s

    how to delete photos from photo library iphone4s?

    Nope I am using the same Photo Library, not the camera roll and by the looks of it you don't have your iphone updated to the newst version because I have an extra field in the bottom bar for photostreaming.
    When I go in any of the above folders I can remove pictures as well as you can see in the pictures below!?
    Hope this helps...

    How to delete photos from photo library?

    Connect your device to your computer, open iTunes, go to the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, uncheck the folder containing the photos you want to remove (or to remove them all, uncheck "Sync Photos"), then click Apply at the bottom to sync your device.  If you only want to remove individual photos rather than the entire folder, move them out of the folder on your computer, then sync.

    Same problem here, and it's not isolated.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/20228281#20228281
    I believe you will find you can again sync Photos if you delete the "iPod Photo Cache", but predict that any subsequent attempt will fail.  In my case, the enxt sync removes all the photos again - I've seen other reports of error messages upon sync.  Mine just fails silently. :-)

    To transfer your photos:
    Transfer and erase the Camera Roll:
    Connect the iPad to your computer and launch Image Capture, iPhoto, or Aperture.
    Select your iPad in the Devices list and click "Import all".
    When the import finishes, you can erase the contents of the Camera Roll, if you want. That would be the quickest way, but deleting it on the iPad in the Photos.app would be safer, but more work.
    Delete photos and video clips you synced to your computer using iTunes: Connect your device to your computer and, in iTunes, deselect the photos and video clips you want to remove from your device. Click Apply, and click Sync.
    Delete the Photo Stream contents:
    How do I delete photos from My Photo Stream?
    You can delete photos from your photo stream the same way you delete other photos from your iOS device or Mac. Just select the photos you want to remove, and tap the trash can icon or click Delete. On your PC, select the photos you want to remove from your photo stream, right-click, and then select delete. When you delete a photo from Photo Stream on one device, iCloud will automatically delete it from the Photo Stream album or view on your other devices. Learn more about deleting photos.

  • HT204022 When i delete photos from photo stream in iphoto .. The pictures are still there on my iphone's photo stream. They are both connected to the same i cloud account.. And i cannot update to ios 5.1 on iphone.. Any help ??

    When i delete photos from photo stream in iphoto .. The pictures are still there on my iphone's photo stream. They are both connected to the same i cloud account.. And i cannot update to ios 5.1 on iphone.. Any help ??

    1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.
    iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
    2)
    Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Then on the iPod go to
    - Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
    - Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
    - Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
    Contnue to use the commpn ID/account for Settings>iTunes and App stores.

  • How to delete a photo from "Photo Library"?

    How to delete a photo from "Photo Library"?

    "Photo Library" is a place where you can access all photos synced to your iphone.  They are not duplicate photos.  It is simply another place form which to access the smae photos that are in your folders/albums
    Just as a book is in the public library and in the fiction section, your pics are in the Photo Library and in your folder.  There is only one pic, simply two places from which to access the same pic.
    If you want to delete pics synced to you iphone, then deselect them in itunes and sync.

  • TS3989 how to delete photo from photo stream

    how can i delete photos on photo stream on my i phone

    How do I delete photos from my Photo Stream?
    You can delete photos from your Photo Stream the same way you delete other photos from your device. Just select the photo you want to remove and tap or click Delete. When you delete a photo from Photo Stream on one device, iCloud will automatically delete it from the Photo Stream album or view on your other devices.
    Note: Deleting individual photos from Photo Stream is supported by iOS 5.1 or later, iPhoto 9.2.2 or later, Aperture 3.2.3 or later, and Apple TV Software Update 5.0 or later. You will need to manually delete photos you downloaded to iOS devices running iOS 5.0.1 or earlier after updating to iOS 5.1.

  • Removing duplicate values from selectOneChoice bound to List Iterator

    I'm trying to remove duplicate values from a selectOneChoice that i have. The component binds back to a List Iterator on the pageDefinition.
    I have a table on a JSF page with 5 columns; the table is bound to a method iterator on the pageDef. Then above the table, there are 5 separate selectOneChoice components each one of which is bound to the result set of the table's iterator. So this means that each selectOneChoice only contains vales corresponding to the columns in the table which it represents.
    The selectOneChoice components are part of a search facility and allow the user to select values from them and restrict the results that are returned. The concept is fine and i works. However if i have repeating values in the selectOneChoice (which is inevitable given its bound to the table column result set), then i need to remove them. I can remove null values or empty strings using expression language in the rendered attribute as shown:
    <af:forEach var="item"
    items="#{bindings.XXXX.items}">
    <af:selectItem label="#{item.label}" value="#{item.label}"
    rendered="#{item.label != ''}"/>
    </af:forEach>
    But i dont know how i can remove duplicate values easily. I know i can programatically do it in a backing bean etc.... but i want to know if there is perhaps some EL that might do it or another setting that ADF gives which can overcome this.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Kind Regards

    Hi,
    It'll be little difficult removing duplicates and keeping the context as it is with exixting standard functions. Removing duplicates irrespective of context changes, we can do with available functions. Please try with this UDF code which may help you...
    source>sort>UDF-->Target
    execution type of UDF is Allvalues of a context.
    public void UDF(String[] var1, ResultList result, Container container) throws StreamTransformationException{
    ArrayList aList = new ArrayList();
    aList.add(var1(0));
    result.addValue(var1(0));
    for(int i=1; i<var1.length; i++){
    if(aList.contains(var1(i)))
         continue;
    else{
    aList.add(var1(i));
    result.addValue(var1(i));
    Regards,
    Priyanka

  • Is there a way to delete photos from Photo Stream on my macbook pro? (Not from my folders,etc.) I need to empty the photo stream. Something in my photo stream has corrupted my phone and my apple specialist suggested I do this.

    Is there a way to delete the photos in Photo Stream on my mackbook pro notebook?
    My phone became corrupted today and, after continuing to have problems with 2 new phones, the apple specialists determined that the only possible explanation was the presence of a corrupted photo or video in photo stream; and that the only way to use my phone without it shutting down was to deactivate the photo stream on it.  It worked, but I would like to be able to have the option of using photostream again. The apple folks suggested that I delete all photos from photo stream on my computer; and then, when it is "empty", reactivate it on my phone? Is anyone familiar with this problem?

  • How get all photos from photo streams without iPhoto

    Hi to make A long story short, I lost a Hard Drive with iPhoto on it... Including all my baby's pics ... However I can still see them in the photo streams on my idevices.. First off without that Mac how can just grab all the photos off photo stream without iPhoto?
    Secondly, if I can install iPhoto on another machine or drive will that help or hurt me? Will all the photos show up under my Apple ID and can I just copy them or am I running any risk of deleting the streams?
    Is my only option to copy photos from photo stream a few at a time? And does that not repush them back up to the stream and erase older photos?
    Thank you for any help!!
    Yes I know I am a complete idiot for not backing up or using online backup service... 

    If you create a new library on another Mac, set its Photo Stream preferences to
    and log into your iCloud account on that Mac and enable Photo Stream,  the Photo Stream photos will automatically be imported into the new library. It can take a while depending on how many photos are in the stream.
    When you're done log out of your iCloud account and copy the library to a flash drive or DVD (if small enought) till you get your new drive.

  • How can I move photos from photo stream to an Album?

    I want to rearrange photos in my photos into Albums.  Can someone tell me how to move photos from photo stream into Albums?

    The trick is to move the photos to Camera Roll first then to individual albums.  Used to go direct but not on the 5s - or least that's the best I've come up with.
