Importing photos made duplicate photos

Hello

I am having trouble with the Photos app each time that I plug in my phone, it asks me to import new photos (as usual), but this import include SOME photos (24) I already imported. So, every time I import I get a copy of the same 24 photos. Yes, for now I have 7 versions of the same image. It is very annoying and a waste of space. I would like to know a fix for this.

See you soon,.

Noah

You may simply need to import selected photos

  • Importing Photos lack a lot of photos

    When I plug my iphone to my MacBook Pro, the photos app appears to import the photos. Great, that's what I want! I want just all the picture files in a folder where I can connect to Picasa, which is at the same time a place I have backup source, etc. Duplicates doesn't bother me, but I don't want to miss anything.

    But when I go to the tab import, it shows my iphone but there are only 42 'News Photos' to import. My phone lists 610 photos under "All Photos". I would like to re - import all these to make sure that I don't miss any. I know that some are duplicates, I will sort that out later with other techniques. But I can not find only these 42 random photos that are new... where di the rest to go! The mac is restarted and phone has not changed anything.

    Where I have pictures imported from this phone previously is a complicated story. Probably I was confused at one point and abandoned a partial import, etc. (so many apps to try do.. photos, iphoto, sometimes iCloud, sometimes AirDrop,... oh my). And I certainly imported to a PC several times to clear the phone memory that I can't do it this time because of access restrictions on this computer. So that part is my fault.

    Is there a way to 'reset' what pictures are seen on this phone like new by Photos app? I google endlessly for this solution, which only seems to show solutions for the PC where I delete the .db files. But no solution, I saw worked for the mac and the memory becomes full.

    Hello and welcome to Apple support communities, PumpkinInPortland.

    If I understand your post right, you are wanting to do a new import all photos on your iPhone to your Mac, so that even the pictures that have already been imported are imported again. I certainly understand wanting to make sure that you do not miss the photos and I'm happy to help you to do.

    It is not a way to reset the photos the Photos app sees it as 'new', but there is another way to get all your imported photos. The best way to do it is with Capture of Image instead of the Photos app. Take a look at the steps on how to do that here: Capture of Image: transfer images and other elements of your device after you have successfully imported your pictures from your iPhone, if you want to move to Photos on your Mac, you can do so by dragging the folder of photos from the Finder application to the pictures window.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    Take care.

  • Importing Photos without end in double - help!

    Hi all, I'm desperately need help, so please can you help me...

    Whenever I connect my iPhone or iPad to my Macbook Air, all software up to date on all devices, the Photos under OS X app offers to import the same (sometimes hundreds) photos that I've already imported a zillion times in my library. I find myself with so many duplicates in my photo library, it ends up a total mess!

    I use iCloud photo library on all devices. Do I need to keep importing photos from my iOS device? I thought all photos taken with any camera will be automatically downloaded on iCloud photo library and close up on my Mac and my local library. Is this correct or should I keep the box "import photos" checked in the Photos app? Most people seem to think that must be kept.

    If so, what should I do to stop these imports double without end ? It makes me crazy!

    Thank you

    David

    No, you don't need to import - doing so will create duplicates

    If you use ICPL then all libraries are kept in sync all the time and you do not manual is important to all

  • Recently impossible to import Photos from the digital camera or iPhone device

    In the past, whenever I have one of my digital cameras or an iPhone connected to my PC (Dell Inspiron 530 running on Windows Vista), the import box would jump to the top, I'd choose to import photos and everything worked without problem.  Not sure if this has anything to do with it, but recently I uninstalled Norton Internet Security 2007 and installed Norton 360 and since then I'm unable to download pictures from my digital camera (Canon Powershot SD950 IS) or my iPhone.  The box "import photos" don't jump (it always did before), and when I go to the Picasa or Windows Photo Gallery and try to "import from camera", it tells me there is no connected device (this happens when the iPhone or the Canon camera is plugged).  And instead of the pealing sound, my PC would usually do when a device is correctly spiked, he made three low knock-type noises, as if to say the device was not properly read.  Interestingly, the iPhone still synchronizes / charges, etc., but I can't get on the photos.  I spent some time chatting with Norton Customer Support, because this issue has started only after that I installed Norton 360, but we have uninstalled Norton 360 (re - installed since) and the problem continued.  I tried several ports, and because this problem has affected at the same time my iphone and a digital camera, that work with any other son and USB ports, I'm pretty sure that this is not something simple like a bad port or wire.  I don't know if it's a matter of updating Windows Vista or what.  So now I'm scratching my head...

    Hi BklnMick,

    3. you see a new message of material found during the connection digital camera or Iphone?

    4. are there any other devices (such as mouse, keyboard, printer etc.) connected to the machine?

    If you are sure that the problem started after installing an application, you can try to perform a system restore on the computer to a previous date when you when it is able to import photos from your digital camera or your Iphone. You can follow the article give:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/KB/936212

    You can also try to power on the machine cycle to drain static electricity that may have built up on the USB ports.

    1. turn of the computer.

    2. disconnect all devices from the CPU.

    3. hold the power button for every 30secs.

    4. connect all devices to the machine.

    5 restart the computer and check if the USB begin to operate.

  • Computer will not import photos

    Computer will not import pictures either from camera or SD reader - there are 1,000 images this size would be too heavy for my laptop? I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 2 GB. I click on Photo Gallery - click on file - click the Pictures dialog box - then import appears - no new images on the device.  Any ideas?

    Hi silverfox16,

    1. were you able to import photos before without any problem?

    This error message occurs when you try to transfer the same pictures again.

    You can try to cut and paste the images using Windows Explorer and check.

    Alternatively, you can try to delete or rename the database file that checks the duplicates.

    Navigate to the location next and Pictures.pd4 and rename it to Pictures.pd4.old or remove the file and check.

    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Photo Gallery\Pictures.pd4 (or sometimes.pd5) and rename

  • Unable to import photos, why?

    Suddenly unable to import photos into LR on my mac. SanDisk of MDGS and Canon 5 d. RAW and JPG. I can see the thumbnails and fortunately, they are important in 'Photos '. I deleted the videos of the cards, but this made no difference. LR is up-to-date. The cards have been formatted. Very frustrating! This must be a problem of LR as everything else works fine.

    !@

    Oh! I think that this is the solution! Weird, but I have not changed anything. I think it's the destination folder that is at fault.

    Thank you very much

  • When you try to import photos, I get an error that says that the preview is not available for this file.

    When you try to import photos I get an error that says: Preview is not available for this file. Then when I try to download these files, a gray box returns for each photo with the name of the file, and this error message -Preview is not available for this file but no picture. The files are JPEG files. I use Lightroom CC help?

    Some additional information. I received these photos of my granddaughter of my son with Dropbox. I checked the files under properties and found that they were listed as "some blocked properties" so I checked the box to 'unlock' and click on apply. The blocked message went away. Then, I took the original photos out of the folder of file they were in. I went back to LR and made sure those grey boxes with the Preview is not available for this file was missing. Then I went to the new files with the status of unlock in a new folder and tried to import into LR... same thing happens again! UGH

    Hi rsobieski,

    Could you please copy the images of Dropbox in a new folder on the computer/pictures folder.

    Also, then try again to import images into Lightroom and also please check if you have read and write permissions on the images.

    Kind regards

  • To import Photos into Lightroom

    I'm unable to import photos into lightroom on my Mac 5. It will be the first segment of unit import photos and the last bit, but leave out the middle section of photos. I thought it was because I changed the settings on my camera one day and those pictures of that day could not be imported, but it did just the same thing when I tried to import photos from my iPhone. It would incorporate pictures from October and December, but none since November. I tried to uncheck "do not import suspected duplicates", but which did not help either. I can import these pictures on my computer, but not in Lightroom. Lightroom is how I organize and classify all my photos, so it is a big problem for me. How can I fix?

  • Imported photos display is no longer in 'Photo', is this a library problem?

    My imported photos and videos are in the library, but not visible in Photo mode, from a few months ago.  They are all visible in the "all photos" album, however.  How can I fix it?

    The most common cause is bad dates on photos so you seek all simply in the right place - right click in all the Photos (which are sorted by date added) and select slide show in the command of moments - should open the window of moments with your displayed photos and then you will see the date of issue

    Moments if not open with your photo showing then you have a corrupted - library save your photo library and press the command and option keys while launching Photos and repair yoru database - Note This will trigger a new total to iCloud library download if you use
