I sifted through my duplicates and after I deleted them, I had freed up more than 650MB of space. Once the files you want to get rid of are marked, review them in the browser and then move them to the trash when you are satisfied that you are not deleting any keepsakes. You still have the option to view the files and unselect the photos that have been automatically selected if you so wish. It’s important to note that even though the app automatically marks the photos, the deletion process won’t be completed until you tell PhotoSweeper to delete them. But, I ended up using the mark automatically option because of the amount of photos in the import. At first, I was apprehensive of allowing the app to complete this task rather than doing it personally. What this will do is mark all duplicate photos within a group except one. PhotoSweeper gives you the option to automatically mark photos. The next step is to mark the photos graphs you want to delete. I was, however, surprised to find that I had multiple multiples. With my personal test, I had purposely selected what I knew to be duplicate files. Once you have completed the comparison process and are presented with the duplicates, the next step is to select the files that should be deleted. From here, it is easy to look through the files that have been chosen by PhotoSweeper as ‘duplicates’ or ‘similar’. The Group List presents you with all the matched photos – all groups together. With Face-to-Face photos, you are given two large photos with details about how close of a match they are and where they are located on your computer.

PhotoSweeper uses two methods for reviewing results and marking photos – Face-to Face and Group List. Once the photos you want analyzed are loaded into the PhotoSweeper, the next step is to Compare the photographs. I’m happy to report that it worked beautifully.

I knew that I had saved it in document folders and in my iPhoto library. No hacking nor tampering with iPhoto system files.Īvailable in English, German, French, Italian and Swedish.The test that I ran was to scan through some photographs from a trip I took several years ago. Only uses standard Apple features and API's. Delete duplicates upon detection or mark them with a keyword to make them easily found using iPhoto features like search or smart folders.

Detect duplicates by using file specific meta data such as filename, dimensions, filesize, Exif creation date or date of creation.

Detect duplicates using effective algorithms using electronic checksums like MD5.

Compare images using different algorithms to detect and understand differences.

Easily find and annihilate duplicates created internally by iPhoto or during import.

Run through a few times first checking my filename, then maybe dimensions, creation date, etc. The similar part is a bit harder as the criteria for similar could be many things. I am not exactly sure it will find your #2 and #3 right out of the gate, but since photos are marked with unique timestamps and other meta data, it should find them even if rotated. For what you need you might need a few passes to get the obvious dups, then find the harder to get ones.

You can download and do a run and hopefully get rid and clean your folders the first time through. The best that I could find and have used is Duplicate Annihilator, which works with iPhoto, and is upgraded for 10.8.
