Best Answer

As long as it is properly wrapped and packed, it should be OK.

The problem is not the temperature, but the handling by airport staff.

Stick on the box/luggage, "fragile" stickers.

Also, check if you have insurance for damage baggage.

Why is everything duplicated on my Mac?

Intentional duplicates are files that you've created multiple backups or need to have saved in different folders. But because those files have the same name, any app would see them as unwanted files. Accidental duplicates are files that you've maybe downloaded multiple times or didn't mean to save in various locations.
