Usually, when importing contacts from your mobile phone or an application to your Address Book program, there's a big chance that the sync process will go wrong and create duplicates. One solution for getting rid of the contact duplicates comes from AddressBook Cleaner.
This simple to use program accurately scans the Mac's Address Book for duplicate contacts by using various search filters. The application offers you a list of match conditions for you to enable before scanning the Address Book, this way, helping you save plenty of time. If you want, you can include an additional search filter to the scan, such as department, email, company name, etc.
A good thing about using this duplicate contact finder is that you can back up your contacts before deleting the unnecessary entries from your Address Book. This feature proves to be of good use in case you accidentally delete the wrong contact.
To sum it all up, I find AddressBook Cleaner to be a great solution for finding duplicate entries on your Address Book. The program is quite cheap and does a great job detecting and deleting all contact duplicates.
