hi. I now have photos on 2 external Hard Drives, a laptop, a Desktop and on CD's , DVD's and Flash Drives. Many of these photo files are repeated more than once and after losing 3 Hard Drives in 3 years i have no idea where certain photos are. They are in JPEG . RAW and some old type of Nero backup file. I want to put them all on one computer. The problem is i have a Canon Compact and Canon DSLR and a lot of filenumbers are the same but have different photos taken on the Compact and DSLR. When transferring to one computer Windows says you already have that file number. This could be exactly the same photo or a different photo taken on my other Canon camera. I would like to use something that can diferenciate between a copy and a completely different photo even though this has the same filenumber. One way to do this would be to use the date and time, as no 2 different photos can be taken at the same time. Other methods could be used like sorting by file size. Is there any software i can use that can automatically delete an exact copy and also keep a file which has the same file number but taken on a different camera. I do not want to have to check every file manually to delete it. Thanks
