Iphoto question: How to prevent importing "duplicates"?

After importing photo from my Olympus digital, I sometimes kept photos on the card so I could print them. When I imported new photos I would get a window asking me if I wanted to import "duplicates" of the photos already imported to iphoto. I could check "no" and just import the new photos from the camera. Now I don't get that window showing up, and end up importing everything on the camera memory card. How do I activate that window?
Thanks,
Jon
 
I'm having the exact same problem... it seems to coincide with my upgrade to iPhoto 5 from iPhoto 4. Sometimes it recognizes duplicates, sometimes not at all, and sometimes it recognizes some duplicates but not others.

Frustrating -- anyone else? Workaround?
