Review the match
Matching uses file content rather than the filename alone. Renaming an identical file may still produce a duplicate warning.
- When Pickit reports duplicate files, choose Review.
- Choose Show existing file beside a match to inspect the file already in Pickit.
Choose what to keep
- Skip N duplicates skips the checked pending uploads. It keeps the existing files and does not add them to the upload destination.
- Add N assets to this library, folder or collection reuses all matches missing from that destination, regardless of which rows are checked. For one file, use its Add to this … action. These actions add the existing file rather than upload a separate copy.
- Upload as duplicate, beside an individual file under Review, uploads a separate copy. It does not replace the existing file.
If the match is in Trash
Choose Review, then Restore from trash for one file, or select files and choose Restore N from trash.
Check the restored file’s location afterwards. Restoring it does not by itself add it to the folder or collection where you started the upload.
