Photo library - iCloud how to remove duplicates

All, someone knows something about OSX/IOS 'Photos' app will detect and remove duplicates photo9?  My library 'Photos' 63 299 photos & videos of 2135 from may 2016 and at least 10,000 + of these photos are duplicates (based on an analysis of Photosweeper). I have checked the results of the analysis of Photosweeper by doing a manual visual comparison and check images original in iphoto library (using the function location of show) and confirmed that these 10 000 + photos are images duplicate identical with names of different files in different parts of the photo library database.

So what is happening and how to stop 10-15% of my picture library being duplicate files! I will raise this directly with the apple support payment for the 1 TB icloud service to cover my very large library 'Photos', which should probably be just a large Photo library!

A few other comments for those who have a double problem:

-L' old iPhoto application used to "detect duplicates" when import but the new application 'Photos' does not. Anyone know about this?

-J' saw the documentation from apple saying the icloud search duplicates in 'Photos' when in the icloud, but clearly not work or it does not work if duplicates exist also in the version of the imac to the library 'Photos '.

-Beware of apps that claim to find 'photos' duplicate and are recommended on various Internet sites, a number of them don't work with the old iphotos app the new application 'Photos' (I discovered after you pay and download). If you need a remover of duplicates of photos that work with 'Photos' review and stay away from any application that do not specify clearly and explicitly he works with "photos" and has been seen since the release of the Photos app.

+ I paid $10 for "Gemini" dual Finder and has been a complete waste of time that didn't work only not with the "Photos" application (it wasn't not clear documentation or support, and when I trigger it supported by Macpaw that they said gemini does not support photos and told me to buy another app macpaw - I told them to go jump in a Lake).

+ I found very good Photosweeper that you can set to match exact or variable (for example photos of accidental burst which are 99.99% identical but 0,1s collapse) and then you can right click to view original file / image in the library to manually check duplicate (if you are paranoid like me) - there are many other paid apps that also make this store then around

Photos detects duplicates when you import pictures and when you synchronize with ICPL

Photos does not analyse the duplicates, but checks for them during import and download of IPCL

There are a few duplicate programs that are tested as safe with Photos, including PowerPhotos, PhotoSweeper for the pictures and Duplicate Annihilator for Photos - do not use a tested and documented as safe\

And I'm not clear what your post is about since you are asking how to find duplicates and then provide a good answer - photoSweeper - it is one of the safe and effective ways to remove duplicates for Photos

    Photos don't have a tool to detect the duplicates library. It relies on detecting when you import photos.

    If you intentionally import duplicates, you can only search for them manually, for example by sorting the photos of the capture date, if duplicates will appear side-by-side in moments.

    To search for duplicates, you need third-party software. These three are safe to use with Photos:

        var r = new Array();
        o:for(var i = 0, n = this.length; i < n; i++){

  • How to remove several photos library icloud?

    I use icloud photos with multiple devices, including an iPhone 4, iPad, Macbook pro and two PC.

    My icloud library is too large, with many duplicates (same photo taken several times) and many photos, I don't want to keep.

    Deleting photos in the library using the icloud library is a slow and tedious process.  I can remove only one at a time, each time takes 20 seconds or more, even with Internet broadband.

    How can I select and delete several photos at once?

    Hello rhwolfson,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

    Looks like you want to be able to remove several photos icloud photo library at the same time.  I will do my best to help find a solution for you.

    To delete multiple photos, the easiest method is to sign in iCloud.com on one of the computers you listed.  Once logged in, click on the photos icon.  When you are in the view 'Moments', you should see "Select of Photos" at the top right of the browser window. Click on 'Select Photos'.  You should now be able to select multiple photos and then click on the "Remove" button that appears.  This should allow you to delete several photos at the same time.

    Have a great day!

    The number of pictures, it's what she has on your Mac. Once it finds that they all do not need to be downloaded again, this indictment will probably fall.

  • Photo library iCloud ridiculous size

    See attachment. I told myself that I have run out of space in iCloud. I knew I had a huge photo library so I deleted almost all of the photos and videos. I then emptied the folder recently deleted so that they should not take any storage more. But my iCloud photo library size is always 3 GB! What the $# @(% is going on?) Is it because even deleted photos emptied are always stored in the library for some time? But I waited a week and he has not set itself. Also there is absolutely no way to recover the deleted photos empty anyway. This is not sensible. Basically there is no way to make room for iCloud by removing photos. Also I tried to disable the library, and it does not work. Apparently they still save on iCloud for 30 days.

    Contact Apple iCloud support.

  • Is there a way to download photos from my iPhone to my photo library iCloud without having my iCloud all that downloaded on my iPhone photo library?

    I just got a new iPhone 7. I was able to import all of my photos and videos of my previous iPhone 6 on my photo library to iCloud. I would like to import the photos that I take on my current iPhone to my previous library without going through my library iCloud just downloaded on my current iPhone. I would just like to see all on my Mac. Is it possible that it is possible? Thank you.

    I'm not entirely sure or understand what you're asking.  If you import pictures from your device, it is stored in iCloud photo library.

    If you're wondering if it is possible to store photos only in iCloud, and not the on your device, the answer would be no, because iCloud is not traditional storage cloud based, i.e. it is a sync/mirroring system, allowing you to synchronize all your photos on all of your devices and make them available instantly , or almost immediately in some cases.

  • My iMovie includes an iPhoto library but not my photo library. How do I update to include Photos?

    I didn't use iMovie for awhile, but have been the installation of the updates. Now, I want to start a new project with pictures of my request for Photos. The photo library is not displayed in the list of iMovie libraries. How do you get pictures of Photos for use in iMovie?

    Try opening the pictures before you open iMovie. Some reported that they can open pictures and close it, and then open iMovie. IMovie is inconsistent about the display of the photo library, sometimes it works ok and other times it is necessary to open the first photos to iMovie of wake-up call that it is all over.

  • My images full resolution stay in my photo library iCloud after downloading the originals on my Mac?

    Good afternoon

    I am currently downloading my entire photo library on my Mac from my iCloud Photo Library - I want to save the originals on a hard drive external.

    I've always had the value "optimize storage space", will be the full resolution original images stay in the cloud after the originals have downloaded on my Mac?

    Most of them is shot in RAW format and I still want their cloud to use Lightroom without having to import them all into LR first.

    Thank you, Aimee

    Yes, iCloud library still retains full resolution photos, unless you delete them

  • How to remove duplicate rows (not exactly duplicate)

    Hi I have lines like this in a table emp

    ENO ename age
    1 25
    26 2
    3 25
    4 26

    I don't have repititve enames... (here in this example: A).

    If I find something like that I should keep the first line and delete all other lines.

    How can I do this?

    as unique empowerment of ename... (except for this)

    Hi Renon,
    There are different ways could remove duplicate rows, but Franks solution seems good.
    With the help of ID you can get good results in the largest data sets. If you want Nwe minutes remain in the database and all others to delete then make use of eno and not rowid.

    DELETE FROM emp y
    WHERE       eno != (SELECT   Min(eno)
                        FROM     emp x
                        WHERE    x.NAME = y.NAME
                        GROUP BY NAME)

  • How to remove duplicates from comma separated string


    Hi all

    I have an obligation to remove duplicates of string separated by commas:

    Some examples of code (real data can be in millions)

    {code}

    create table test_dup_del (num number (10), dup_val varchar2 (100));

    insert into test_dup_del values (1234, '1, 2, 3, 4, 3, 1');
    insert into test_dup_del values (4567,'1, 2, 2, 4, 4, 1');

  • Download Photo library iCloud to new drive

    Hello.

    Problems at several levels with my Mac and will need probably need to download icloud library my pictures and my videos on a properly installed new hard drive.

    Once connected and downloading is done, how much time should I keep the Library open and intact while the Mac writes what it takes? I have a little less 40 GB in size with a little less than 13,000 positions.

    Thanks for your help.

    H

    You can use it while it is downloading and it downloads in the background so it doesn't have to be open - it must be powered, awake and have internet available to download so keep awake - 13 000 will take some time, but no one can predict exactly how long--two many uncontrollable varriables

    If you quit Photos while the process is not ready, you'll get a message
