How to Interleave photos from different folders to Create a Slideshow.

I have LR 1.4.1 and am trying to create a slide show from photos collected in folders marked by the day they were taken. In addition there is a folder loaded with jpeg Title Pages intended to be inserted to mark the beginning of a new day in the slide show.
I am having trouble figuring out whether I should be in Library to interleave all these photos and title pages or in Slideshow. I am not able to reorder or compile into a new order in any mode I can detect. Should I be in a Quick Collection or just a Collection or somewhere else to order all the slides. Should I be in Grid view or Loupe view? Can I see the order and alter it in the Film Strip perhaps? I need to be able to SEE the slides from a source and the resulting ordered slides for a slide show to accomplish this.
Has anyone had this problem and solved it? I tried to accomplish this in iPhoto with no luck. Is what I am trying to do outside the norm for creating slide shows?
Any and all suggestions are appreciated.

Ray,
It sounds like you tried to open a new catalog, not create a collection.
Go under the file menu and click open recent. You should see your old catalog listed. Once you have that opened, go through and mark all the photos you want. You can use color labels, or some nonsence keyword, like qwqw or any method you like. Once you have them all marked, be sure you have all photos selected, then filter for your keyword or color lable, or whatever you marked them with. Then select all those photos. Then go down the right panel until you see Collections. Click on the + icon. In the dialog box that opens, give your collection a name and be sure the box "Add selected photos to this collection" is checked. Then click OK. Now you'll have a collection of the photos you want to use. If you want to add any to the collection, you can just drag them into the collection name. Be sure you're dragging from the thumbnail, and not from the border around the thumbnail. If you want to remove a photo from the collection, just right click it and check remove selected photo from collection.
You can then take your collection, and reorder them anyway you like. And then go to the slideshow module and there you go.
Hope this makes sense.

How to copy photo from camera roll to created photo album or to photo library

how to copy photo from camera roll to created photo album or to photo library

I have been trying to figure out a work aroundof this issue too. It defeats the purpose of photo stream in my eyes.
You can copy a picture from your photo stream to your camera roll and then crop, etc. But you can't then file that picture into a folder of your choice!?!?!?! If I have to file the picture on my computer and then resync to do it then photo stream is mostly pointless!!!

Syncing Photos from different folders...?

I know it never worked in the beginning-but has someone found a way to sync photos not from only one folder but from different folders to the ipod?
something like a photo playlist...?

You can sync from different folders if they are all sub-folders beneath a main one. If the main folder you are syncing from has sub folders they will show in the box below "Sync photos from folder". For example you may choose to sync from My Pictures and inside My Pictures you have folders for different subjects. You can choose which of those subject folders you want to update to the iPod or you might want to make a folder in there especially for iPod photos. You can drag these folders into an order of your choice.
Here's a simple "How To" on downloading photos from a folder and sub folders on your hard disk to an iPod:
1 Create a folder on your hard drive to hold the photos you want on your iPod. Call it iPod Photos for example
2 Inside this folder create as many other folders as you want (or drag and drop existing ones from other locations on your hard drive)
3 Drag the photos you want from your usual picture folder into the appropriate folders you just created. (not necessary if you are using pre-existing folders already containing photos)
4 Open iTunes, select your iPod in the iTunes Source list.
5 Click the Photos tab and select “Synch photos from.”
6 Choose “Choose Folder” from the pop-up menu and select the iPod photos folder you created.
7 Choose the radio button "Selected folders"
8 Tick the folders you want to go on the iPod and click Apply
When you go to Photos on your iPod you'll see each of the folders you have chosen in the menu and you can choose whichever one you want to view.

How ATTACH multiple files from different folders in one ATTACH 'session'?

Hi,
In Mac Mail, I often have to attach 2 or 3 separate files, all from different folder locations on my hard drive.
This requires clicking attach, selecting file 1 and clicking OK, which closes the Attach dialog.
Then I have to do it again 2 times for each other file. oy.
Is there a way to Highlight multiple files in different directories (ala Command-Select...which doesn't work) before selecting OK?
OR
I've found that I can DRAG a file from the Attach dialog into the email and the dialog will remain open, only the file is HIGHLIGHTED in the email and , hence, gets replaced by the next file I drag into the email (or select by the normal method)....
Is there a way to drag that file#1 into the email and have it NOT remain highlighted, so that I can pick another file to add in addition to that one?
Thanks!

How do I import photos to iPad2 from different folders in my Mac?

How do I import photos to iPad2 from different folders in my Mac?
I have a few folders of photos in my mac that I want to be on my iPad2. How do I go about on doing that?
It seems like I need to put all the folders into one folder and point iTunes to that main folder.
The thing is I don't want to copy them (waste of space) and I don't want to move them (my photos are organized).
So is there a way for me to import photos from different folders in my mac to my iPad2?
Thank you!
BTW... I don't use iPhoto.

Find software (which may not exist) to export them in a photo format (jpeg, tiff). IPhoto will not do it

I just burned photos from different albums to CD-R. When I checked on the photos I burned on the CD-R afterwards, I noticed that the titles of each folder that these photos are extracted from appear. How can I get rid of these titles???

iPhoto 9.6 cannot open iPhoto Libraries on CD/DVD. The iPhoto Library needs to be on a writable storage. Copy the iPhoto library from the disk to a folder in your Pictures folder. And then run the iPhoto Library Upgrader on that copy, see this link: iPhoto '11: About the Library Upgrader

You'll have to do that manually, i.e. export each album of photos to a folder with the same name located on your hard drive via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option.

How to export photos from iPhoto to external hard drive keeping Events structure (files and titles)

Hello!
I’ve been looking for a Automator application that does this for quite a while now.
Basically I want to have an Automator application that saves a copy of my iPhoto pictures in a folder, inside Finder. Like a backup. Later on, I can save those “folders and files” on my external hard drive.
What I want it to do is this:
1) Export photos from a selected Album or Event on iPhoto. Using as title: “Event name” – “number” (I mean the number of the file: 1, 2, 3 …)
2) Save them in a folder in Finder that I want.
3) Organize the photos in different folders, the same way they are in iPhoto.
The idea I had, was that it would do this automatically every time I launch iPhoto, as if it was synchronizing the photos into that folder.
And then, every time I connect my hard drive, it copies these “real” folders into my hard drive.
Is that possible? If yes, could you help me creating it, or tell me how I can do so myself, or where to download something like it?
Thank you a lot! Kind regards,
xanacarfran2008

Is this waht you want to do?
It's built into the File Export function of iPhoto 9 (11). Select what every photos you want and use that option to put each photo in a folder with the Event title it came from as in this test of six randomly picked photos:

How to import photos from multiple iphoto libraries to iPad

How do I import photos from multiple iPhoto libraries from my iMac to the new iPad? I have 4 different iPhoto Libraries on my iMac.
I can import photos from iPhoto library 1, to the iPad, but when I import photos from iPhoto Library 2, created on my iMac to the iPad,
it deletes the original photos that I imported from the first iPhoto Library and replaces them with the import from library 2.
I only want to import selected photos from each library to my iPad. Can someone plese help me?

As Ralph has suggested, if you want to sync photos from your computer, you must include all photos that you want to sync - with each and every sync. You cannot import photos from another Main photo folder on the computer. You must create an all-in-one photo library in iPhoto and sync from that folder. You can select one level of sub folders from within that main folder, but all of those folders must be included in the main folder - in your case it is in iPhoto. That is just how the sync process works with Photos.
I don't know how using third party apps affects the photos that you have already synced from iPhoto, but take a look at these apps in this Google search. Maybe Wifi transfer is the way to go for you.

Syncing photos from different iPhoto accounts

On my iMac, my wife, daughter and I all have our own accounts on the machine which means we have 3 different iPhoto collections and you can's see one from the other.
Any way we can sync all three iPhoto collections to a single iPad?

You can sync from different folders if they are all sub-folders beneath a main one. If the main folder you are syncing from has sub folders they will show in the box below "Sync photos from folder". For example you may choose to sync from My Pictures and inside My Pictures you have folders for different subjects. You can choose which of those subject folders you want to update to the iPod or you might want to make a folder in there especially for iPod photos. You can drag these folders into an order of your choice.

HT201317 how to delete photos from photo library iphone4s

how to delete photos from photo library iphone4s?

Nope I am using the same Photo Library, not the camera roll and by the looks of it you don't have your iphone updated to the newst version because I have an extra field in the bottom bar for photostreaming.
When I go in any of the above folders I can remove pictures as well as you can see in the pictures below!?
Hope this helps...
