Q: In my folder "Pictures" - the same picture figure more than once
When I move pictures from my iPhone to Iphoto my MacBook Pro, I get this problem....
My photos below Finder - > Pictures , appears twice and sometimes more than twice. This also happens to my pictures from music albums. It's annoying , since I now have 15,000 pictures under "Pictures" even though I only have 2,500 pictures stored in iPhoto.
It seems like for every face that appears on the photo, it creates a new copy/picture.
I have recently bought a new MacBook Pro, and the same happens the new MacBook
Anybody who can help me???

Your son is looking at the "All my Files" view and not directly at the Pictures folder. "Billeder" in "All My Files" means all image files, not the folder "Billeder". It will show all photos on his mac, not only the the ones in the "Pictures" folder.
He should not use that view. It will reveal files inside library packages and is dangerous.
My "All MY Files" is showing something similar. It is showing any image file that is somewhere on the Mac.
He should access the Picture Folder from the Finder's Sidebar by clicking the Pictures icon.
If the Pictures folder is missing from the sidebar, enable it in the Finder Preferences. Click somewhere on the empty desktop to bring the Finder forward and open the Preferences from the Finder menu.
