Searching bookmarks for duplicates?

I am wondering if there is a utility that will allow me to search my favorites/bookmarks etc for duplicates and alllow me to trim them down. IE in OS9 holds a lot of them but I have a similar problem in other programs. Thanks

Hi, Glen -
Don't know about other apps, but in IE you can use IE's built-in search function in its Favorites to manually check.
To do that, the Favorites (bookmarks) window must be frontmost - select Organize Favorites from the Favorites menu (the Organize Favorites item itself - not any of its submenus). This will open the Favorites window and bring it to the front (I leave it open all the time in the background).
Then just press Command-F - a standard search box will come up. Enter your search string and click the Find button. Command-G can be used to do additional finds using the same search string.

Match Codes / Search Helps for Duplicate Check Vendor are missing

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to enable the Duplicate Check for the Vendor solution we have here and I couldn't help, but notice that when I'm setting up the DB Search in "Define Search Application", the out of the box values for existing search helps are already preconfigured and the values are the following:
BP MC_BP_ADDRESS Address Data
BP MC_BP_BANK_DETAIL Bank Details
BP MC_BP_GENERAL General Data
BP MC_BP_ID_NUMBER Identification Numbers
BP MC_BP_ROLES BP Roles
Unfortunately, when I check in SE11 - those search helps do not exist in the system. How can I get them deployed? Are they part of a Business Set that I missed to install and activate?
Thanks in advance,
Boris

Hi Boris
Please check that the following is set in your system:
Configure Duplicate check for entity types - BP need the following:
Assign search object connector template to object types - BP need the following:
Ensure that "Business Partner template for MDG" connector is created in ESH_COCKPIT

Read file, search file for duplicate addresses

Hi - i have no teacher to ask, nor do i know any java programmers to ask this question, so your guidance would be appreciated.
I have created an "Insurance Project " for myself� but I do not know how to proceed,I have a file that contains 30,000 records in the format:
Policy1 ccyy mm dd NameOfInsured StreetOfInsured CityOfInsured
Policy2 ccyy mm dd NameOfInsured StreetOfInsured CityOfInsured
Policy3 ccyy mm dd NameOfInsured StreetOfInsured CityOfInsured
Policy4 ccyy mm dd NameOfInsured StreetOfInsured CityOfInsured
Policy5 ccyy mm dd NameOfInsured StreetOfInsured CityOfInsured
Policy6 ccyy mm dd NameOfInsured StreetOfInsured CityOfInsured
In a nutshell: I want to check to see if any one household holds more than 1 policy. If a household does have more than 1 policy then I want to be able to offer those households "package deals".
My problem: how do I read in the file for comparasons? And how do i handle the comparasons?
Do I create a duplicate file and compare record 1 in fileA to each record in fileB, and if so, after the first search of fileB it will reach EOF, how do I get the pc to compare fileA record2 with the start of fileB?
Or Do I move record1 into a holding-area & compare each record against record1, problem again, eventually I will reach EOF, how do I let pc know: get record2 go to first record in file & compare each file?
Open file insured.dat
Read in file insured.dat
thisPolicy = policyNumber //move policy number(address)you are searching for
getNextPolicy
//compare thisPolicy to nextRecord in file
if nextRecord = NUL //then go to the top of the file,
//again to search with next record
else
if thisPolicy-Address is the same as nextRecord-Address
move nextRecord to pkgDealFile.dat
getNextPolicy
Kinda stumped,
Thank you

}It will tell you if you have done it (JDBC.ODBC) correctly or not. If - well when you have, you can then use java to run queries and write data etc.
You'll also need a PWS to test it, but you can do your writing and queries from the MSDOS shell for now. (then use servlets.)
Good luck!

Duplicate check on search term for BP creation in CRM

HI,
I want to do a duplicate check on search term for BP creation in CRM.
i found one BADI ADDRESS_SEARCH. But the method address_search is not getting called.
Is there any other BADI available? how can I handle this issue?

hello,
BP is BDT (Business Data toolset) enabled (you can check it by adding break point in FM BUS_PBO and executing BP transaction). You can add your check directly to standard view (the check will be executed each time when user pushes enter) or you could add you check to appropriate action (during saving etc.) there are number of actions which you could use it depends on your requirements. You can find a lot of info about BDT (if you are not familiar) in Wiki.

PSE10 Crashes when searching for duplicate photos

Hello,
I recently upgraded to PSE10 and imported my catalog from a different machine (which had been running XP). Unfortunately, I ended up with a bunch of duplicate entries in the catalog, one with the path c:\users\... the other with c:\my documents\... These paths both point to the same image on the hard drive.
When I try to Search for Duplicate Photos (from Find>By Visual Searches), PSE invariably crashes. I am running PSE10 under Windows 7 (full system info at the end of this message).
Any idea why this might be happening, and is there a different way I can remove the duplicate entries in the catalog?
Thanks,
Chris

If I understand well, what you are calling 'duplicates' are duplicate entries in the catalog, the same media being called either by its original path+filename or shortcut path+filename.
The organizer will try open two different files to compare them, but when trying to open the second 'shortcut', the file will be already blocked (in use). That could explain the failure of the comparison for similarity.
Try creating a new catalog with similar images, for instance jpegs and png copies. Does the visual search work ?
About backup and restore : If my supposition is right, that should work if you try to restore to a new custom location with keeping the file structure : the backup should create real file duplicates on different paths. If it works, finding visual duplicate should work, although this process may take a very long time.

Tell me Logic for search for duplicate words(or strings) in a large file.

Search for duplicate words (or strings) in a text file containing one word per line. For each word that occurs more than once in the flat file output should be as follows
<word> <number of occurrences> <line numbers in the file where the word occurs>
For example, if the word Hello occurs thrice in a file at lines 100, 178 and 3456 the output should read
Hello, 3, [100, 178, 3456]

Incidentally i wrote similar code some days back. You need to do some modifications to get the exact output you want, but i hope it will be of some help.
One more thing its written using JAVA5
public class Test
     private static final String COLLECTIONS_TEXT = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\amrainder\\Desktop\\Collections.txt";

          findDuplicateWords();
     private static void findDuplicateWords() throws IOException
          Collection<String> words = new LinkedHashSet<String>();
          File file = new File(COLLECTIONS_TEXT);
          StreamTokenizer streamTokenizer = new StreamTokenizer(new FileReader(file));
          int token = streamTokenizer.nextToken();
          while(token != StreamTokenizer.TT_EOF)
               if(token == StreamTokenizer.TT_WORD)
                    words.add(streamTokenizer.sval);
               token = streamTokenizer.nextToken();
          System.out.println(words);

Optimizing a search for duplicate files in a filesystem

We have a large directory that people have been dumping to for years (~200k files), and I want to go through and look for duplicate files. The first part of this was just scanning through and checking for duplicate file names. I wrote a simple VI to serarch for duplicates, but it is very inefficiant because of multiple string comparisons. Even optimized as much as I could think to do, I'm only scanning about 1k files / minute. I have attached my code - any help would be appreciated.

This is trivial using the variant attributes mentioned earlier. Attached is my method which uses the Variant Repository XNode I developed. Not sure on performance comparisions.
EDIT: I'm betting the thing that will take the longest will be performing the MD5, I'm sure a CRC32 could be done faster which is probably just as good in this situation, or even a sum of the bytes of the file as a quick way of identifying the file.

Can I search for duplicates in iPhoto 9.2.3?

I believe earlier versions had a "search for duplicates" function.

No, no earlier version did.
For dealing with duplicates in iPhoto check out Duplicate Annihilator or Decloner or iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner

No "search for Duplicates" found in address book

Hey, on my intel imac I've got no "search for duplicates" available to me in Address Book. It shows up in my macbook, and my lampstand powerbook. All three are running 10.4.10, Adressbook is Version 3.1.2 (321)
Also, when I sync with .Mac it doubles up all of my entries in the libraries on both computers.
Any ideas?

AB search should search notes. quit Address book and delete the file homedirectory/library/application support/address book/AddressBook-v22.abcddb. then start Address Book and see if search works correctly now. if it doesn't reindex your hard drive with spotlight. add your hard drive to spotlight's privacy pane for a few seconds and then remove it from there. wait for reindexing to finish and try AB search again.

How can I search for duplicate photos in iPhoto libraries?

How can I search for duplicate photos in iPhoto 9.5.1 library. Installed on iMac 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, Mavericks 10.9.5.

These applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
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 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 to search for duplicate files?

Search for duplicate

hi there.
i am running though an issue with looking for duplicates.
right now. my vi is searching for the duplicate, once it is found, it will display "duplicate found".
i am facing a new problem. lets say i have 10 devices and 10 positions those devices goes into my test box.
position 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
the device that read position 0, and 2 is close to one another. so when a device is put into position 0, it can be read on position 2.
and 2 can be read on position 4,
and 4 can be read on position 6,
so then 1,3 --- and 3,5 ---- and 5,7
and so forth.
thats because the hardware i designed didn't take into that consideration.
so now i think its best to fix the software.
does anyone have an idea of how to get rid of the DUPLICATE if the position is 2 positions away?
i have created a vi that generated what i started.

Is it possible to search for Duplicates in Aperture v3.1

Hi Guys,
I'm hoping you guys can help me,
I'm re-scanning my family photo archive at a much higher resolution,
and i can't seem to find a way of searching for duplicates of the same image, but at different resolutions.
i have achieved this in the past using "ExpressionMedia2" (previously called "iViewMediaPro"),
This program had a command to "Search for Similar",
with a slider to move from close match to exact match,
which was pretty accurate, no matter what size the images were.
I'm tempted to use this program,
but i'm not sure how Aperture will handle images that have been deleted by another program.
and how can i strip orphaned previews out of the Aperture Library ?
I'm new to Aperture, and like it's way of working,
but, it's very powerful and does have many un-intuitive commands within it
Hoping you guys can help me,
billy

Aperture has no in-library dupe detection. It only has it on import.
As for other apps deleting files from the Aperture library -- they shouldn't do that. If they are merely deleting a file at the Finder level ( that is referenced into AP), then that image will be marked as Missing in Aperture. You can do a Find for all those your self, or you can make a smart album, then delete at your convenience.

Searching for duplicates

In iTunes you can search for duplicates of a music file (easily). Can we do the same thing with an iMac using Leopard? If so, could someone please tell me how?
Cheers,
sws

I would probably not buy it if +all you want to do+ is search for duplicate files. If it's other capabilities are of use to you then maybe you might consider it. I bought SC6 way back in the day but as the OS and other utilities had matured I found that I had less and less use for it.
If for instance you only want to find duplicate photos then perhaps Duplicate Annihilator may be more appropriate?
Again, wait and maybe others will chime in, if not then google a term like 'find duplicates' and see what comes up.

How can I search my library for duplicates?

Is it possible for iPhoto to search the entire library for duplicate photos?

Hi iMikey,
No, iPhoto does not have this option.
You might wait until iPhoto diet gets updated for iPhoto 6 and then try it. Please read all the documentation first.
To get back some of the space your iPhoto Library is taking up on your hard drive you can use http://pages.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/~fuhrer/personal/freestuff/iphotodiet/iPhoto Diet
Quoted from the web site:
iPhoto Diet is a utility that helps to slim down your iPhoto library by manipulating your photos in the following ways:
*eliminate duplicate photos created internally by iPhoto or imported by yourself
*remove iPhoto's backups of rotated or modified photos
*strip the thumbnail icons of your photos
*remove thumbnail photos that have become mixed up with your high resolution photos
*identify photos which have not been added to albums
weed out unnecessary folders and files from the library
and more!
I suggest you read through the entire page because it expalins what iPhoto does and how it does it.
If you say to yourself "I can go through the originals folders right in the Finder and get rid of the images I no longer want" then you need to read On iPhoto 5, Originals, and GUI Scripting which will explain what happens if you do it yourself.
