How can I create a smart folder that only searches one event?

Is it possible to create a smart album but have it not search my entire library, but only a certain event?
I have created a smart album to find unnamed faces, but I have many old pictures in my library with strangers in them so the smart album ends up quite large. If I could apply the rules of the smart album to only one event at a time I could find the photos i need with no faces recognized in them easier right after I import them.
Or conversely, is there a fast way to delete all the unnamed faces boxes for all my pictures with strangers in them- there must be a faster way than going through and clicking the 'X' on each individual face.
Thanks!

Make the criteria: Event Contains XXXXXXX and Faces is unnamed.  That will search only that Event.

  • How to create a smart folder that only selects from a specific directory?

    I am trying to create a smart folder that lists all my iPhoto original content in the last few months. I want this so that my wife can connect into the smart folder over the LAN when copying specific photos to her PC.
    I am have trouble working out how to restrict the search to only those files that exists in the iPhoto directory. When I look at info for a photo is states "Where: /Users/Shared/iPhoto Library/iPhoto Library/Data/2009/....etc etc".
    However if I add an filter for "Where from" begins with "/Users/Shared/... etc etc" it returns nothing. Is there a way to do this?

    Find the iPhoto library file.
    Right click -> Show package contents.
    Double click the Originals folder.
    Type anything in the Search box at the top of the Finder window.
    In the top of the Finder window, click "Originals".
    Click the + (plus) sign next to Save.
    Select Kind is Image.
    Click the + (plus) sign again.
    Select *Created date* is *within last 3 months* (or whatever you want).
    Go to the search box and delete what you typed. Don't hit the X to delete the search text.
    Now save the smart search.
    This is saved in ~\Library\Saved searches. Copy or move it to the desktop where your wife can get access to it.

  • How can I create a submit button that only saves?

    Our end users will save the completed form and later upload it to anotherg place.  I created a save button that works fine, but without a Submit button there is nothing to trigger the reminder to go back and answer required questions.  I don't want to lose that part.  Thanks in advance for any help you can offfer!

    Would something like this work for you?
    var OKToSave = true;
    if (tfSomething.isNull) {
              tfSomething.border.edge.color.value = "255,0,0";
              OKToSave = false;
    else tfSomething.border.edge.color.value = "255,255,255";
    if (!OKToSave) app.alert("Please fill in all required fields");
    else app.execMenuItem("SaveAs");

  • How do I make a Smart Folder that targets search in a specific location...

    ...that is NOT my Home folder or "This Mac"?
    Beavis2084

    Navigate to the folder you want to search in the Finder. Hit Command-F and then select the folder you are in--it will be right next to This Mac (and why This Mac is the default rather than the folder you invoke the search in is beyond me). You can only have one search location, unlike Tiger where you could do a search on multiple locations. And why they left that out I'll also never know.

  • How can i create a Photo Folder that is "secured and private"?

    I wanted to create a file that is secured that I can put my private photos and videos that can only be accessed by me. So that when someone using my computer...(I.E....young children) don't have access to.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can't. What you can do is create a separate iPhoto library for those items and store it in a password protected disk image.

  • How to create Smart Folder that limits search to a specific folder or drive

    I've been playing with Smart Folders in Leopard 10.5.5. I would like to create a smart folder that limit the search to only a specific folder where I keep all of my work related files. I cannot figure a way how to do this.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.
    Bud James

    1.) Performed Archive and Install. This did not correct the problem.
    2.) Performed clean install to new hard drive. This corrected the problem.
    3.) Performed a user migration (to the fresh new OS and new HD) using the migration utility and the problem returned.
    So it seems pretty clear that there is something related to my user identity that is causing the problem. I called Apple tech support but they were not able to resolve the problem.
    Sure, I can just create a new user and spend the next week or so reinstalling a bunch of software...but certainly based on the description of the problem (and the trouble shooting that I have already performed) someone at Apple should be able to pinpoint what files I need to delete or replace to correct this problem.

  • How can I create a new folder in an external disk that is connected via USB to my Mac?

    How can I create a new folder in an external disk that is connected via USB to my Mac?

    Just like you would create a new folder anywhere. Open the drive's icon from your desktop or the Finder, and click shift-command-N. (Or use the Finder menu if you prefer - File - New Folder).
    If you can't create a folder, your drive may be the wrong format (you can't write to a Windows/NTFS formatted drive, for example). You'll have to back up any files you have on there, and then use Disk Utility to reformat it to Mac Extended (if it will only be used on a Mac) or MS-DOS format (if you want to share it with a PC).

  • How do I create a smart album that contains all pictures with no keywords?

    Hi,
    I have many pictures which currently don't have any keywords at all. Now I want to tag these pictures with keywords. How can I create a smart album for those pictures without any keywords? So that I can then work just on these pictures...
    Note that I don't want to find pictures that don't have a specific keyword. I want to find all those pictures which have none keyword at all.
    Thanks,
    Rainer

    Well, there's a way but it's not great...
    Start with a smart album at whatever level you want to keyword everything under. Set to search where "rating is greater than or equal to unrated".
    Select all images, and apply a keyword like "NeedsKeyword". Yes, even the one with keywords already.
    Now change the smart folder - use the "+" menu on the upper right corner of the query box to add an "IPTC" search. In that row use the dropdown by IPTC to find "keywords", then set the one next to it to "is", then type "NeedsKeyword" (or whatever you used) into the text box. Now go up to the top of the query box and change the "Match" dropdown to be "all" instead of "Any".
    What we've done here is find all images where the only keyword is "NeedsKeyword", all the ones you've done with keywords already will not appear.
    Now, copy these images into an Album (not smart album) for tagging - this is because as soon as you tag an image it will vanish and you may wish to apply more than one tags).
    After you are done tagging, you want to remove the tag - this is trickier than you might think, as you need to remove it from images tagged before in addition to the images in the Album you just made.
    First, change your smart folder to once again find all images by unchecking the IPTC keyword search. Now you'll see all images - but you're not done yet! You cannot batch undo a keyword in a smart folder, even though you can batch add. Select all of the images and drag into the Album you were using to keyword. Inside an Album the keyword metadata inspector shows only common keywords, NeedsKeyword should be one of them - remove it and it will be gone, and all your images tagged. Now you can remove the Album and the Smart Album you created.
    Harder than it needs to be, I'd say - I've submitted feedback you need some way to search for untagged images. Heck, it may already be in 1.1! Or Joe might know of an easier way that has eluded me.
    Good luck!

  • How can I create a new folder in Word for Mac ?

    How can I create a new folder in Word for Mac?

    You don't do this in Word. You do it in the OS X Finder.
    All you need do in Word is open the file, then select Save As from Word's File menu. Change the destination to your new folder then click on the Save button.
    The Finder method is much faster if you have a number of files you want to move. Just remember that to open those moved files in Word, you will have to change the directory from which you will open those files.

  • How can I create a sub-folder within my "Documents" folder?

    How can I create a sub-folder within my "Documents" folder? I have many similar documents that I want to group together. This will also un-clutter my Documents folder.

    Also, you can add a New Folder button to the Finder's toolbar by opening Finder, going to the View menu in the menubar, selecting Customize Toolbar..., and dragging the New Folder icon to the toolbar in the Finder window. Then it's just one-click for new folders wherever you want them.

  • How can I create a smart playlist of least played complete albums?

    Hi,
    How can I create a smart playlist of least played complete albums? (of a specific genre, say jazz)
    What I would like to do is to have a playlist that will always automatically pull the least played albums of a specific genre (ideally, but not necessarily, with a random album play within that playlist) Hope you are getting the concept!
    Thank you for any idea!
    Daniel
    p.s. there have been solutions for earlier versions of iTunes, none working with iTunes 10 apparently

    As you say, you can't access the Gapless property in a smart playlist rule.
    The obvious way that comes to mind would be to create another playlist with stuff to exclude from your final list and put the gapless tracks and anything else that won't filter out easily into it.
    Yes you say but I have oodles of gapless tracks and I don't want to gather them up by hand.
    OK, so you'll need a script. Here is one I've just created for the purpose: GaplessToPlaylist

    I process aviation maintenance manuals, with the individual manuals having their own PDX. How can I create a master PDX that pulls from the individual PDXs?
    I have access to myriad versions of Windows and Acrobat so there's that...

    I’ve got 100s of manuals each with their own PDX. I’ve been asked to create a master PDX that in effect combines all of the individual PDXs into a single (cross-manufacturer, cross-fleet, cross-manual-type) searchable PDX that can be easily updated.

  • How can I edit my website from another computer? and how can I create a new website next to the one, I have already? Can anyone help, please?

    How can I edit my website from another computer? and how can I create a new website next to the one, I already have? Can anyone help, please?

    Move the domain.sites file from one computer to the other.
    The file is located under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.  Move this file to the same location on the other computer and double click and iWeb will open it.  Remember, it is your User Library that you want and not your System Library, as you will not find iWeb there.
    Just create a new site on the same domain file and it will appear below the other site.  If you want them side by side then duplicate your domain file and have one site per a domain file and they can then be side by side.
