My iPhoto library is currently 279GB and I need to look at ways to reduce the overall size of the library and/or eliminate duplicate photos. In addition to the large iPhoto library there are quite a few folders in Finder that have photos imported from a previous PC.
1) What is the best way to consolidate all photos & movies into the one iPhoto library?
2) What's the best technique to them eliminate any duplicates from the Finder folders (while ensuring the files are in the iPhoto library)?
3) Once I have one massive iPhoto library, what's the best way to divide it up into manageble chunks for easier archiving (I already use redundent Time Machine backups so that's no problem) on DVD/Blu-ray? iPhoto Library Manager SW perhaps?
Many Thanks!
