Is there a software to detect duplicate documents and images?

I'm having a hairy problem combining documents, applications, images etc from 2 different computers.  There will certainly be duplicates.  Because a large volume of documents, pictures etc, the removal of duplicates manually is not practical.  After talking with support from Apple, I know there is no way to deal with us with the Apple software.  So I'm asking if anyone knows of a third-party software that eliminates duplicates in large numbers?

I am running 10.10.5 on both computers. I used Migration Assistant to move orders from the old computer to the new.  Since I have data on the receiving computer, I need to keep, I had to create a new user on the destination computer that you want to use for the data from the old computer.  If I had no data on the destination computer, I would have reformatted the HD and just moved the data. I also have two computers backed up on an Airport Extreme Base Station, Time Capsule.

Thanks for your help.

There are many in the Mac app store. There is a free version of Duplicate Detector: find and remove the files fast. Just search: find duplicate files

    Hi surrendernot,

    It is possible that one) you use different software of scans other than HP software for scanning or b) the HP software is different on Windows 7, on Windows XP, because they are completely different operating systems and may be a more recent version of the software.

    Other methods of analysis lies in this guide to scanning, how HP Multifunction printers - how Scan: Windows 7, you can try scanning without HP software as well.

    Hi Nikki,

    Are a. When you facing this problem?

    B. What is the error message when you try to open the word document?

    If you can't find a file you're looking for, it could have been recorded in or moved to a different folder than you expected, or the file had been sent to the trash.

    You can start the search for the file by using the search folder, but you can also get the file by inspecting folders where you think the file is likely to be.

    Try not the article.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/recover-lost-or-deleted-files

    If the problem is more recent, try to do a system restore and verify if you are able to locate the missing files.

  • Copy of Documents and Settings

    I have a new computer and am trying to copy my files (using an external hard drive) from my old C:\ drive to my new. Everything went very well except:

    There is a folder in my "Documents and Settings" in Windows Explorer. I never use it because I have set up my own "file" based entirely on the subfolders and files in Windows Explorer. However, Windows continues to put 'stuff' in 'Documents and Settings '. When I tried to copy this folder (to be on the safe side) copy was refused due to the presence of the file NTUSER. DAT and ntuser.dat.LOG in C:\Documents and administrator and NTUSER. DAT and NTUSER. DAT. Log in to C:\Documents and Settings\Default User.

    Thus, three questions:

    1 do I Documents and Settings or can I ignore this and stop trying to transfer files?

    2. If I need this file, I can just safely transfer files and folders without transferring the NTUSER files?

    3. What are these NTUSER files?

    Thank you very much.

    This is correct, the Documents & Settings folder on winxp contains user win data files.

    But in your case, apparently you have stored your data elsewhere files.

    Transfer data from your backup to the locations of the Win7 library (Documents, music, videos & pictures)

    You can still use a folder structure in each of these places

  • Error message: cannot create the folder C:\Documents and Settings\Marlon\Local Application BVRP Software\NetWaiting\MoHlog.txt Settings\

    I recently had a problem with the virus 'Restore Windows'. I was able to get rid of it with Malwarebytes antivirus scanner, but when I turn on my computer I get this error message.
    Cannot create the folder C:\Documents and Settings\ of Settings\Marlon\Local Application BVRP Software\NetWaiting\MoHlog.txt

    I'm no expert, but I feel that my C drive disappeared, or at least has been hidden. My documents, pictures and music files are all empty. My programs (start > all programs) have been removed and deleted the shortcuts on the desktop. When I go to my computer, my personal and shared document files are not accessible. Under the description it says that they are hidden. My local disk (c) is also empty, but there is still very little space which suggests that programs and files have not been deleted.
    Is it possible to recover my files?
    Thank you

    Hello

    MoHlog.txt file is related to the software of modem on the computer, you can uninstall and reinsta it check if it works.

    Also scan your computer for any infection by virus still present on the computer using any scanner online.

    You can also try the system restore to the point before that the computer has been infected by the virus and check if it helps.

    Good luck!
