How do I add print onto a photo? I'd like to put a copyright on some of my pictures

I would like to add my name or a copyright on a few of my photos before sharing. How do I do that in iPhoto? I want it to show up on the photo itself.

Adding text to a photo is not a feature of iPhoto.
You can do it with
Preview - already on your machine
BorderFX - a free plug-in. (http://www.iborderfx.com/iborderfx/)
or an external editor.
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
Watermarks:
It can be done in Aperture or with an app like these
Impression
iWatermark
There are others. Search on Macupdate or the App Store

How do i add text to my photos?

How do i add text to my photos - previously you could do this on iphoto

Many users find the excellent and highly-recommended BorderFX more than meets their needs.
A couple of things to note:
- "Photos" misleads us into an understanding of what we manipulate with our computers that differs from what our computers are programmed to manipulate. Within Aperture, you have Images (called, imho confusingly, also Versions and also Photos); outside of Aperture you have image-format files that you see listed in the Finder and use in other programs. BorderFX lets you overlay text and watermarks, and add borders, to Images in Aperture. When you do this, a new file is created and automatically imported (it becomes a new Original). You can also export via BorderFX, in which case a file based on your Image and the changes you've set in BorderFX is saved to the location (outside of Aperture) that you specify.
- Adding text to an Image is a _graphics_ operation, and not a _digital camera file_ operation: it is outside the remit of Aperture, which hews to being a photographer's non-destructive RAW digital camera file storage and development workspace. You use Aperture to store, organize, and develop (make as good as possible for a particular use) digital camera files. When you need a new graphics file, you (generally) export your Image from Aperture, and create new graphics files using a graphics program (e.g.: Photoshop, Pixelmator, GIMP, etc.). Graphics programs are built from the ground up as compositors. Aperture does almost no compositing. BorderFX is a slick, purpose-driven compositing plug-in.

You can use the Settings in the slideshow to Show Captions, either the Description filed be display, the Title field or both.
If you create the slideshow in iDVD from still photos from iPhoto you can add the Description and/or Title via the settings in iDVD.
Since iDVD adds both automatically the user must go thru the slideshow and remove those items not wanted.

how do I add a folder of photos that isn't in iphoto to imovie

You can drag them in from the Finder. I think you will have to drag one photo at a time, but you can experiment.
If you put into iPhoto, you can place them in an album and drag the album in all at once.

How do I add URI web link with custom tooltip like "CLICK HERE TO UPDATE" instead of URI web link in tooltip.

You've probably found an answer to this by now, but I think this has been addressed in another forum -- The link below suggested using a button and adding the tooltip to the button.

Good luck~!

How can I add Text to my photos?

I would like to add Text to my photos, save the image and upload to be printed at my local Camera and Print Shop. How do I do this? I have bought the lightroom 5 book (which is the version I have) but I only find how to add text prior to printing and not how to save the image and print elsewhere.

OK - so will a Watermark appear on the photo itself? Or - will it appear on the bottom (within the margins)? Example - I took some photos of a client's son. It was his 6 month photo shoot. I would like to put something like "6 Months Old" in the template of the photo. Not necessarily on the photo itself - is that possible. What am I doing wrong?
