PSE10 remove duplicate Photos

I'm running PSE10 on Win 7 and have ended up with a bit of a mess, I would like to clean.  My catalog has hundreds of duplicate photos.  Here are the pairs of elements that point to the same physical photo via a different path.  All follow the model of C:\Documents and Settings\chris\Mes Documents\... and C:\Users\Chris\Pictures...

I tried to use the search of pictures duplicate function, which does not identify the duplicates, but he also finds tons of false positives, photos that simply look the same but are not actual duplicates.  Sorting through this is not possible.

I might be able to identify the versions of My Documents by removing the shortcut to My Documents in the operating system and see what are the images must be reconnected.  However, my tags are all attached to the C:\Documents and Settings versions.

I'm looking for a good way to identify the actual pictures in the catalog, rather than simply similar duplicate.

The workflow I imagine is: identify duplicate photos | transfer tags in C:\Users version | Remove the version C:\My Documents.

Someone at - it suggestions?

Thank you

Chris

PS I'll note that I'm experienced with databases and sql, by any chance, the catalog is really a sqlite database simple that I can handle.

At this point, it seems that my work has been successful.  The catalog works well, all my pictures seem to be intact, duplicates are gone and there seems to be no other reference to c:\My Documents... in the catalog.

I'm not going to post all my questions here unless someone wants them, because it would be a long and technically complex assignment.

However, I have another question: what is the purpose of the media_stack_sort_table and the version_stack_sort_table?  These two have a media_id column that refers to the media_table elements do not exist.  My operations probably added additional entries pointing to missing items, but without knowing what to do tables, it is difficult to know if this is important.

Thanks for your help!

  • How can I remove duplicate photos?

    Recently, I changed the location of some of my files and import the catalog to redeem my change information. I'm now done with duplicates of every image that I had moved. Each image is in a stack of 2; I have an image which is the original and an image that is the edited version that I want. The image original is always image 2 of 2 and was called 'DSCFXXXX. RAF/Copy 1 "so that the modified image (what I want) is called 'DSCFXXXX. RAF '.

  • 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

  • PSE10 crashes when looking for duplicate photos

    Hello

    I recently upgraded to PSE10 and imported my catalog from another machine (which had been under XP).  Unfortunately, I found myself with a bunch of duplicate entries in the catalog, the one with the c:\users\ path... the other with c:\my documents\...  These paths the two point on the same image on the hard drive.

    When I try to find duplicate Photos (from Find > by Visual search), PSE invariably crashes.  I'm under PSE10 under Windows 7 (complete information of the system at the end of this message).

    No idea why this could happen and is there another way I can delete the entries in the catalog?

  • 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!

  • Photo library, duplicate photos of different resolution

    I recently imported my Photos iPhotos library, in order to start weaning myself far from iPhoto and photo.  In my library (and in my Album of iPhotos events) I see pictures in duplicate, with one photo at higher resolution and the other at a lower resolution, with the auto tag 'photo stream.  I do NOT use iCloud as a backup of the photo (cannot afford to pay for it).

    It would be nice to remove the photo in low resolution?  I guess it's the version of the photo in the photo stream on my iPhone and iPad, so maybe not.  I find it very confusing.  Thank you for helping me.

    What you have said, it isn't really clear from the pictures or what they are. In iPhoto, the photos that were imported from photo stream should have been imported as images in full resolution on your Mac, it's mobile devices that see a smaller version of the resolution. So yes, import on a Mac should translate the keyword the photo stream, but they must be images in full resolution.

    These photos appear in your photo album of flow on your Mac Voyez_ you pictures on your mobile devices and if so where.

  • Duplicate photos

    I'm viewing Photos to iCloud and sometimes to find duplicate photos.  They appear sometimes for Moments and sometimes mode Albums and sometimes in both views I think.  What can be done to stop this duplication of behavior?  Also if I want to delete a duplicate in iCloud will remove it without removing the second copy.  The second copy will remain in the two views?

    There could be a few reasons for duplicates. It may well be down to the metadata that are attached to the photo, sometimes when the photos app is updated as a result of a software update, sure it can create a copy of a photo with the new dates.

    Any photo that is removed from a place is removed everywhere if you use iCloud photo library.

  • How to remove the photos from the event?

    My IMac says that the tax Turbo I download only readable and said that not enough volume, what should I do?

    is the pictures I imported my camera take too much space? These photos to receive in the event and the Photos, so I need to delete the event, please tell me how to remove these pictures, thank you.

    You use iPhoto for Mac?

    'Photos' and 'Events' are to show you the same pictures, but differently.  They are no duplicates, but only different ways to access the same pictures.

    If you remove a photo of 'Events', it will be completely removed from your iPhoto library and the photo will be lost. The facts prove the pictures grouped by the import session, and 'Photos' show you the same photos as a continuous stream.

    If you need to liberate storage, consider moving the iPhoto library on an external drive, to have more storage for your photos.

  • How to remove duplicate pictures

    I imported all my photos in the photo library. How to remove duplicates of Photos (version 1.3) on OS X El Capitan without 3rd party software?

    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:

    I resynced my ipad removing the old photo files.  I chose a new folder and agreed to delete, but they are still there.  What have I done wrong?

    Hey nelgren,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. I can see from your post that you encounter problems of withdrawal of the pictures from your device, but also save them on your computer, and I'd be happy to help you with this. If you have created an album on your iPhone by tapping on the sign more, naming and adding photos of her, you can type easily edit and remove this album together at any time. However, the removal of the album does not remove the photos from your iPhone or iPad. It removes only this album. The photos themselves will remain in the collections, albums and photo stream. If you want to delete some photos in an album, you will need to remove the album on your computer , then apply the changes to sync in iTunes. If you want to delete an entire album, just uncheck it in iTunes and sync again.

    For the photos that you want to keep on your computer, but remove from your device, you can follow the steps in the link below.
