[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1174123, member: 24160"] I have not used any of these type programs, but there are a couple out there. There is one in the app store called Singlemizer - most reviews very positive, but has one review that says it does not do what the dev says it does - could be user error on that one. Araxis is another that has a free trial - not in the app store, but cheap enough at $15 if it does what it says. Both of these claim to find duplicates based on content rather than file name, date, etc. I'd do a backup immediately prior to using one of these so you've got a quick restore at hand just in case. (App store - looks to me one of the problems with it now - no free trial periods - you just have to buy on faith and hope it's the one you wanted and really does do what you expected.) [/QUOTE]
