Q: After using Duplicate Annihilator my iPhoto asked to repair library after repairing photos it triplicated my library!  Please help!!

1. I was looking for a good software to get rid of iPhoto duplicates.  I purchased Duplicate Annihilator.

 

2.  After using Duplicate Annihilator (which took 5 days to scan) it got rid of some, not all of my duplicates.

 

3.  Then iPhoto asked to repair my library.  After repairing my library I went from 50,000 photos to 150,000 photos.

 

PLEASE HELP!

 

How do I get rid of all these duplicate properly without having any repercussions down the line. Preferably the least time consuming and most accurate.

 

Thank you,

    "

    Go to your Iphoto and locate the "search" field. Search for photos "duplicate". By default the found duplicates will have their comments/field st to duplicate. That's what Annihilator does. Then you can send them all to trash.

    Hope that helps."
