for finder item, select what you want to duplicate, drag n hold down option key. drag to the location you want to duplicate & release.

for iPhoto, select whatever you want to duplicate and right click / control click > Duplicate.

Similar to this question, just wondering how do we find photos/mps/file that are not in any albums, still residing in the Library?

Example, I've already put all the photos that I want in respective albums, I wish to delete those which I do not want (not selected into any albums) is there an easy way to locate and delete them?
