Hi folks. I really appreciate the replies. I am on High Siera, latest version, and iOS 11also latest version. I’m not using iCloud Photo Library, maybe I should be.
When I open Photos I see a photo that is also on my iPhone. It’s in jpg format. If I connect my iPhone by USB, open Photos and click on the device, it says I have a new photo to import. The same one that’s already in my library. If I tell Photos to import, I get a duplicate image in the library, but one is a jpg and the other is heic.
So I guess I have two questions:
1. Which image do I keep in the library? I’m guessing it’s the HEIC image. BTW: I’m just doing the deletes within Photos. I’m not touching the library file with Finder.
2. How to stop the iPhone duplicates?
