I hope the above will help you so that you can ask for more targeted help.Developed by MacPaw, Gemini 2 is our best duplicate photo finder and cleaner app – it does what it promises and does it well. If you find pictures which are duplicates (same size/date) in your catalog (even with different filenames), you'll have to search for differences in the files properties, particularly in which 'import batch' they were imported. In that case, there is a way to search for visually similar files in the organizer. If you consider visually similar files as duplicates, they are not for the database. So, you are talking about duplicates 'in the catalog', not 'in the computer'. It has not been very clear why there was a number of problems on older Macs. It may be because of downloader options like red eye correction changing the size or similar traps. It seems the above criteria don't insure 100% safety. The files on the card are compared to the ones in the current catalog for size and date, and only new ones should be imported. The downloader module has the option to import only new files. The most current complaint is when you are 'importing' (downloading) files from a camera card. There are many possibilities to get duplicates in that 'downloading' phase. That's the main problem for duplicates on your computer. Such duplicates won't be imported, they are ignored.Ģ - Before getting the files in the catalog, the photos must come from your camera, your scans, your web browsing or any other source. So, when you want to 'import' files in the catalog, there is a check for duplicates based on two criteria (among others): file size in kilobytes and date taken of the photo. That's a basic programming rule for managing databases. Only you can issue orders to 'duplicate' or 'export' files.ġ - The database function in the catalog tries to insure no duplicates can be registered/indexed if you try to 'import' them. The organizer does not 'generate' anything on its own. Well the question would be better answered if you had said 'were imported'. I'm not quire sure how these duplicates were generated.Īnd you don't know how those duplicates were generated. You seem to be astonished to see duplicates in a catalog. I have 8000 photos in my Catalog and several are duplicates! Two interesting points in your own question: You could find a number of posts about getting rid of duplicates in Elements or outside Elements. Is there a way to delete duplicate photos other than marking them one at a time?
