How do I turn off faces recognition in iphoto

how do I turn off faces recognition in iphoto?  I mean forever!!

So by deleting the "Face Profile" or whatever it's called for the individual Faces keeps searching for, you think that's not a solution?
The actual pictures identified by faces are not deleted. Only the avatar and name you list to be looked for within faces is what you're removing.
Do you have a better solution? I'm all ears.

  • How do you turn OFF faces in Iphoto?

    How do you turn OFF faces in Iphoto? I hate it.

    When I collapse it the face boxes go away, but next thing I know it's expanded again.
    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • How do I turn off auto split in iPhoto ?

    How do I turn off auto split in iPhoto? I have about 8,000 old photos I would like to import but it splits them in to loads of events. Would just like to leave them in year folders.

    First try, if importing a sample folder with two images with different days, more than a week apart, will import them as only one event on your mac and  the autosplit is behaving the same for you as for me.
    May be I will have to do it folder by folder which will take for ever.
    Would it be possible for you to join some of the folders before importing?
    Or join your events in iPhoto after importing. Creating yearly events is fairly simple (tested in iPhoto 9.5.1)
    Create a smart album for each year (File > New ) with the smart rule "Date is in the range ...."
    Then select all photos in this smart album and use the command from the "events" menu "create event". This will collect all photos in a new yearly event.

  • How do you turn off faces?

    How can I turn off finding faces in iPhoto? It takes a lot of time to look through 190,000 photos!

    That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
    190,000 - that is a lot of photos - one of the top two or three libraries I've seen here
    Basically you just have to let it finish and then ignore it

  • How can i turn off faces

    i can't turn off faces in iphoto although i had previously, with the new update i guess it cancelled it and now iphoto is trying to identify 12000 faces.. anyone  have instructions?

    What ever - we are users just like you - creepy, not creppy, paranoid, not paranoid - we can not change anything - we just help people use it the way it is - that is all this forum is for - users helping other users
    LN
    BTW I guess you have no idea how faces works - it does not identify people (yet) it identifies faces and you go in and assign people to the face - if you ignore it then all that Big Brother can see when they scan your computer every night is that you have photos that include people - which of course they already knew because everyone takes pictures of people

    I just converted a PDF to Word.  It was an image file, but the converter recognized certain lines in the illustration as text elements, so some of the pictures are "chopped up".  Is there a way to "turn off" the text recognition feature so that I can keep my images intact?  Thanks for your help!

  • How do i turn off "FACES"

    I use Iphoto '09 and have never used faces. After some sort of application update I fund the system grinds to a halt and the gears go 'round at the "faces" feature which I do not use. How do I turn it off.

    You can't turn it off or keep it from scanning for faces but you can keep it from creating the small face image files. Here's how:
    1 - open the library like this in the Finder.
    2 - in the Database folder move this file to the Trash: Faces.db.
    3 - close the package/folder and launch iPhoto.  Close it after a moment.
    4 -  open the package, find the new version of the file and lock it via the Info window for the file.
    5 - while viewing the contents of the package type Command+F to start a search.
    6 - set the criteria of the search to:  Kind is Image and Name Contains "face".
    7 - select all of the files in the search results window and drag to the Trash.
    8 -close the package and launch iPhoto. 
    You will get the faces spinning wheel as it tries to index the library the first time it's opened but it won't be able to write to the database file if you should try to add a face and won't create any new jpeg faces files. Of course make a backup of your library before trying this and no guarantee implied.

  • How do you turn off Text Recognition in the new ExportPDF?

    You used to be able to de-select it before exporting to a Word document.  Now my documents are converting with a bunch of gibberish.
    Do I need to post somewhere in particular to get a response from someone with Adobe?  I really need an answer ASAP as I use this for work and there is apparently no way to call and speak to a person on the phone.
    Please help!

  • How do I turn off auto-launch of iPhoto when the iPhone is connected

    I hate it that whenever I connect my iPhone to my MBP iPhoto automatically launches. Any help is appreciated.
    Jacob

    To do that follow these steps
    Go into Applications
    Open Image Capture
    Next to the blue apple to left hand corner, click on image capture
    Go into Preferences
    At the top of the window that opens, change option: When A Camera is connected, Open:
    Change the drop down menu to no application
    That should prevent iphoto from opening when phone is connected.
