I found the "sort for visually similar" function in organizer(10) and it pretty much tanked. It grouped head shot photos with lake landscape, and a few rows down would be a duplicate head shot. So it is too restrictive and not restrictive enough at the same time.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have lots of pictures around 3000+ and I need to remove the duplicates. There has to be a better way than just eye balling through them all and removing them manually. Can I sort of pictures by colour profiles so that if photoshop scans an image and recognizes the colour trend or whatever and tries to find another picture in the same folder with the same or similar colour profile and group them so I can see if they match or not?

Often, when I right click and select "Free Transform" and start editing my transformation, Photoshop decides to duplicate the layer. This leaves a layer beneath the layer that I am working on and if I am trying to position the transformation over a layer below that, obviously this is impossible, as the layer is hidden.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI open the software, optimize the database, hit the triangle button and click "find duplicates." This freezes the software each and every time.
Virus caused me to wipe the hard drive and reinstall the software. The problem is the software has about 2 or 3 times the pictures it should it shows previous edits and two pictures and on top of that edited the pictures as it imported them so some pictures appear 3 times. I really need to get this taken care of. Using 64 bit Windows 7.

View 1 Replies View RelatedJust upgraded to Photoshop and Premiere Elements 12. Decided to use Elements Organizer for the first time starting with a completely new Catalog.
I selected a subset of my photos to just check it out -- a folder with 3 subfolders. I am certain there are zero duplicates in my Windows file structure. After "Get Photos and Videos" "From Files and Folders..." the import occured quickly but all 3 subfolders were duplicated under "My Folders". Photos were also duplicated.
It's not too bad that My Folder shows dupes but the images are considered 100% different between. For example, if I tag 1 photo, the same one in the duplicate folder still needs tagged. I should not need to run a duplicate image search either when the source folder contains no duplicates. This is really disconcerting as I have nearly 20K photos (I scanned every photo my mom and dad took from the past 30 years). Cleanup of false dupes in something that large is just rediculous.
Is this a bug? May-be an intentional function of the program?
Why do I keep getting exact replicates/duplicates of pictures in the organizer. More duplicates with more movement of the picture, ie more tags. I keep deleting them, and they still come back

View 7 Replies View RelatedI just upgraded to LR 4.0 and the identify duplicate function does not appear to be identifing duplicates.
I was cleaning off cards and wanted to make sure all the photos had been added to the catalog when I realized that photos which have been imported, will reimport.
The "don't import suspected duplicates" box is checked. I verified one photo, _img_2597.cr2 , was both on the card and in the catalog. LR4 re-imported it - putting a duplicate in the catalog.
I then added some new photos to the catalog and then tried to re-load them: the detection of duplicates worked. It apears that photos from the 3.6 catalog are the issue.
I have:
rebooted the system
opened up a backup catalog
synchronize folders
All to no avail.
how to find dublicates in Adobe Lightroom 4.1 without to buy any plugin as Lightroom Dublicate finder etc....?.
View 2 Replies View Relatedmy workflow is to copy all photos from my camera to a folder that is configured for auto import.Lightroom takes these pics and import them to the library.But it does not exclude duplicate photos. If I copy the same photos to the auto import folder again, LR imports all photos again.
Why can't I configure to exclude duplicates as it works with the manual import function?
Have Windows 7, 64 bit, LR3..On Import Dialog Screen it shows on right panel...File Handling.Don't Import Suspected Duplicates.Make a Second copy to.

I'm using Lightroom 5.3. I'm importing images to my catalog from one external drive to another using the "copy" function. I have "do not import suspected duplicates" checked, but Lightroom does not identify duplicate jpg images as such and lists them as new files to import. If I import these images they show up in my database/catalog with the -2 designation. The images are identical in filename, capture time, size and EXIF info. I have tried removing my preferences file and starting another but that doesn't change the behavior. I have seen other posts with similar issues but cannot find a solution that works for me. I don't see this listed as a bug either.
View 14 Replies View RelatedWhen I migrated from iPhoto to LightRoom I wound up with many hundreds, if not thousands of duplicte images.
I purchased the "Duplicate Finder" plug-in, which indeed finds the duplicates, but ther eis no way to simply delete them. I would imagine many users have been through this at some point and hope there is a relatively simple way to get my catalog under control.
I have a strange problem with some featurelines in one of our projects. I have recorded the error because it is hard to describe. Below is the link to download the short video. I have tried running the audit and purge commands an no errors are reported.

Somehow I ended up with duplicates in my library. Some could be compressed jpg versions that were emailed to people. Is there an easy way to determine which are the better quality versions so I can delete the others?
View 7 Replies View RelatedMy workflow is as follows:
1. Shoot.
2. Clean the junk pictures off the card with Nikon ViewNX, I keep MAYBE 1 in 50 shots.
3. Import to LR 3.4.1
4. Repeat.
On the second import, the pictures from the first import are normally flagged as suspected duplicates. Occasionally, one will not be flagged as a suspected dupe. I suspect that this is because on a subsequent ViewNX pass I accidently changed the number of stars or some such on that image. Is there some way to reinstate "suspected duplicate" status? Or to put it another way, what determines suspected duplicate status?
I leave the good pictures on the card as a back up (I do have other backups -- the laptop backs up daily to the NAS when I'm home, and I have LR make a copy to another CF card on import. But you can't have enough backups.
After import from CF card, then next import with "don't import suspected duplicates'' checked, failed many times. You must close and reopen the import window, repeating the operation (one or two times) to make it work properly.
View 12 Replies View RelatedI am not sure how, but I ended up with duplicates in my library - probably a couple of hundred. I know there is a checkbox for not importing duplicates. Why is there not a duplicate finder for those already in the library? Or is there? Lightroom 4

I can import a card, eject the card, plug the card back in and Lightroom STILL wants to import the photos it just imported. Of course the checkbox for "Don't import suspected duplicates" is ticked.
Yesterday I did a tethered portrait shoot into LR and at one point LR failed to capture some images. Therefore, after the shoot, I imported the CF-card using my card reader and ticked the "don't import suspected duplicates". Still LR imported all images and whenever it found a duplicate, instead of ignoring it, LR just renamed the file with "-2" at the end of the file name. This doesn't look right to me.
Is this a bug, should LR function like this or is there something that I've missed? Shouldn't LR at least ask me if I want to rename, overwrite or ignore?What can I do to avoid this issue in the future?

I have a catalog and images on my laptop. I have created another catalog that I want to merge with this one. It includes some duplicate images and thats fine. I want the images, keywords and folder structure from the new catalog to merge with the existing one for teaching purposes.
Lightroom wont let me Merge and include the duplicates.
