Lightroom-Classic, Apple mini,

Hallo, mein Ligtroom-Classic-Katalog zeigt mir hunderte von Duplikaten an. Die Überprüfung des Datenbestandes mit dem Finder ergab, dass jedes Foto nur einmal gespeichert wurde.

Der Katalog zeigt sie mit 100% identischen File- und Folder-Namen an.

Meine Frage/Bitte: Wie kann soetwas geschehen, und wie kann man/ich das Problem lösen?

As @dj_paige wrote it seems that you have acidently imported the photos twice. To prevent this in the future mark the option "Don't import Suspected Duplicates" in the import settings.

Here you'll find infos which you can help to find duplicates easily.

Your screenshot only shows the top of the picture frame. Look at the bottom right. Do you see a small curly corner? If so, then the 'duplicate' is actually a virtual copy, not a real copy.

You (accidentally) imported the photos twice. And so you need to decide which of the two versions of the photo you want to keep in LrC. It is possible that one has develop settings while the other does not; or perhaps one has user-provided metadata, while the other does not. If that is the case, it may be simple to select the ones that do not have edits or do not have metadata.
