iLifeOther forum members are reporting, that this happens after the iOS 8.1.1 update, when Photo Stream is enabled on their iPhone. Then syncing via USB will import the photo stream as well as the camera roll and result in duplicates being imported. Could that be the case in for you as well? It would be good to know, if this bug is indeed related to the photo stream.

Dec 11, 2014 6:17 AM in response to léonieby harryfrommansfield center,I do not have Photo Stream enabled, so the problem cannot be traced to that setting. Thanks.

Dec 11, 2014 8:13 AM in response to harryfrommansfield centerby photosb189,If you connect to your phone using the Image Capture application, (Applications/Utilities > Image Capture -or- type the word "image" into a Spotlight search), do you see duplication there?

Strangely, when the duplicate photos appear, and I disconnect the iPhone from the iMac and then reconnect it, the duplicate photos go away and there are only the originals waiting to be sync'd.

iLifebut I do not have an Image Capture application anywhere on my iMac.
You have. It is a standard application that comes with the system
Depending on the System Language, the Image Capture application might be called differently. Look for this icon:
Also the name of the folder Applications > Utilities will depend on your primary system language.

Dec 13, 2014 10:14 AM in response to léonieby harryfrommansfield center,Yes, you are correct. Image Capture was there in my Applications folder. It just did not show up in a Spotlight search. And all my photos are duplicated both in Image Capture and in iPhoto. I upgraded my iPhone to iOS 8.1.2 yesterday and the duplicate photo problem is still there.

Dec 18, 2014 7:43 AM in response to harryfrommansfield centerby carrot_top,Environment:
Mac OS X 10.7.5
iTunes 12.0.1.26
iPhoto 9.4.3 (720.91)
iOS 8.1.2 (iPhone 6); call iCloud Photo settings are OFF.
Had the duplicates-on-import this morning. Disconnected phone, took picture, reconnected - no duplicates. [I've seen this behavior before as well.] I thought it might be related to HDR, but it was off. Tried specific test: took one picture with HDR ON; one off. iPhoto (correctly, I think) found 3 images to upload. We're seeing this on multiple MAC OS X platforms, and multiple versions of iPhoto; is the common element something in iOS 8?
Just sayin'

Dec 18, 2014 7:50 AM in response to carrot_topby harryfrommansfield center,Yes, strangely if I connect the iPhone with recent photos on it to the iMac, duplicates appear. But, if I immediately disconnect the iPhone, and reconnect it - no duplicates. Not exactly the way it's supposed to work.
