Now, Im facing the task of deleting one of those duplicates using PhotoSweeper X, which is pretty handy, but I cant see where those duplicates come. If any of this applies, do not trust the displayed "New" photos and select the new photos to be imported manually. I have some duplicate photos, inherited from the iPhoto days, as the result of syncing my iPhone photos via iCloud and making a local copy of those same photos 'just in case' on an iPhoto album. There is a panel that asks you what it is that you specifically want to find. At 10, Gwinno Software’s PhotoSweeper isn’t the cheapest of the duplicate photo removal tools out there, but in my experience, it’s the best. The iCloud downloads from My Photo Stream or iCloud Photos are new files, whenever the photo will be downloaded again and appear as new photos, when you sync the iPhone with the Mac. Moreover, the app is not limited to PhotoSweeper you can add photos from Adobe Lightroom, Apple Photos, and Aperture. Every picture stored on your Mac, iPhone or iPad. iCloud Downloads: Photos cannot recognise a photo as already imported, if the photos is stored in iCloud and only mirrored on the iPhone. With the optional iCloud Photo Library feature, all your photos & videos are kept safe on Apples servers.During the import you will be prompted to choose what you want to have done for duplicate photos and it will show you the first.

(No deleting until you know it worked) Open that new empty library in photos and drag everything (using CMD+a in finder) in that exported folder to the Photos.app window. They will appear as new photos over and over again, because the HEIC photo on the iPhone is different from the JPEG on the Mac. Close photos and create a new photos library. for example, if the photos are on the iPhone in the HEIC format, but you are importing them converted to JPEGs. Format conversion: Photos cannot recognise already imported photos as imported, if the the photos are converted to a different format, when you are importing the photos.DUPLICATE photos - absolutely identical photos, created by reserve copying or using multiple photo libraries etc. It allows you to find and group photos that have identical or very similar content, regardless of image names. There are two possible reasons for Photos not being able to recognise duplicates on import and showing already imported photos as new photos. It works with photos from Apple Photos, iPhoto, Aperture, Adobe Lightroom Classic and Capture One libraries, as well as photos from your hard drives and external storages. iPhoto '11 works with iCloud Photos, so the photos you take on your iOS. In some cases Photos cannot recognise already imported photos as duplicates. Turn your email into something really special with ten Apple-designed photo mail templates.
