Hi. I am having issues with duplicates in Photos for Max OS Ventura. I get an error message when I try to merge duplicates. It says Duplicate photos cannot be merged at this time. If anyone has a work around for this, I’ll be grateful.
MacBook Air, macOS 13.0
Do you have iCloud Photos enabled? If so do you also have "Optimize Mac Storage" enabled?
Have you tried to repair/resotre the library by opening it with the Option+Command keys held down?

I repaired the library as a first step and it sorted things out. I might add that while I was getting the error on my Mac, I was able to merge duplicates perfectly fine on my Phone. Same settings.
Thanks for your efforts.
All sorted thanks.
What fixed it for you? For the benefit of others with the same problem.
