How can I remove duplicate photos from iphoto on macbook?

Question

I have just imported all my photos from my camera into iphoto, for some reason every single one has been duplicated, can anyone advise why this has happened? More importantly can anyone tell me how I can remove all of the duplicates?

Answer 1

click each, delete. you can click one, then by holding the "SHIFT" key, click several photos at once and delete them all at the same time.

Answer 2

This wonderful application should do the trick: http://www.rhythmiccanvas.com/software/i...

Just download the .dmg file for iPhoto Diet 3.1 and remove your duplicates!

Hope this helps!

P.S. My suspicions of this incident are that you may have clicked upload twice or something. It happened to me with my song on iTunes. I had 6,000 + songs, now all duplicated!
