[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1253990"] Really, this starts with the user. Once the damage is already done, you can use Duplicate Annihilator for iPhoto duplicates, and scripts from Doug Adams (not the dead one, another guy) to do the same for iTunes. Not really. You're WAY overthinking this ... let go of the PC paranoia (or OCD disorder, whichever is driving this). The OCCASIONAL use of a tool like OnyX is MORE than sufficient for healthy maintenance along with good practices like regular backing up and keeping a fair amount of free space available at all times, quitting programs when you're done with them and so forth. Nope. Again, most of this is not really necessary. Congratulations on moving to a platform where you no longer have to be a full-time "manager" of the computer. [/QUOTE]
