Please let me know if Duplicate Annihilator can work on multiple iPhoto libraries simultaneously and not only remove the duplicates, but also combine the disparate libraries, saving as many extant photos as possible, and at least recovering thumbnails of photos that no longer exist in their original location, thereby consolidating all of my remaining photos in one place without redundancy.
If you can, then you have a sale! :-)
macupdate won't allow me to edit my previous question, sorry for double posting, but here's another one:
Will Duplicate Annihilator work on Aperture libraries too?
I'm thinking that maybe the best solution is to start fresh with Aperture, have it seek out EVERY photo in EVERY iPhoto Library, folder, package, firewire drive, network mount, etc. and then let Duplicate Annihilator go through the mess and clean it up. Would D.A. be able to kill 5 duplicates, but not the 6th? Would it be able to recognize new thumbnails created from the imported full-res files and delete the old thumbnails, but NOT delete the old thumbnails if that is all that exists?
Unless y'all have implemented some seriously good AI I'm thinking this won't work, but I'd love to be surprised.
I found at developer's web site, http://brattoo.com/propaganda , that they do have an Aperture version of Duplicate Annihilator!
Also, I should probably have posted my questions via email. Sorry. As was previously mentioned here, there is no way to edit, or delete, a macupdate.com post! :-/
