[QUOTE="skybolt, post: 536720, member: 30261"] O.k. for the duplicates, try iPhoto Diet. Will weed out the dupes. You want to save the "Originals" and "modified" photos, as they are the ones that iPhoto uses, and will let you return to the originals if you want to undo any changes, etc. If all of you pictures are in your pictures folder (not talking about the iPhoto library folder here) then you should be able to delete them from the iPhoto library folder and they will remain on your computer. Or vice versa. There is no need to import your photos to a folder, then into iPhoto -- that will certainly duplicate them. Just let iPhoto import them into the library and be done with it. Do your organizing/manipulating from the app and forget the library in finder exists. [/QUOTE]
