I make annotations to my photos in iphoto using preview. But once I have made the annotation I do not get the photo back into the event in iphoto from which I took the photo. What am I doing wrong? I am not using aperture

For the annotations to display on the photo in iPhoto you must setup Preview as the external editor in iPhoto via iPhoto's Advanced preference pane.
After adding the annotations just do a Save. iPhoto will then recognize the change via a new modified version. You can revert to the original at any time if you want to get rid of the text.

Since you mention that the "modem" (which I'm guessing is a wireless router) is not close to the Time Capsule, I'm guessing a second time when I ask if you are trying to configure the Time Capsule to "join" your network using wireless only.
Is that correct?

If it has letters it is not a serial number. It is likely a redemption code.

Can not use my backup photos, what am I doing wrong?

I am having problems using the photos from my external hard drive. I switch library, and get all the thumbs up in iphoto. When I try to edit them or export in any way, I am not allowed to. This is very frustrating, can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

n555:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The "!" in the edit window indicates that iPhoto has lost the link to the original file in the Originals folder. Check in the Originals folder to make sure you have the full sized image files in there.
Did you rename or move any files/folders in the iPhoto Library folder from the Finder? That's one way to get the situation you're experiencing but it would be only for those you tampered with. Since it's the entire library then you've probably fallen victim to the damaged database file problem that hit a lot of users.
If the full sized image files are there you can try to rebuild the library as follows: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select all of the options. I'm not optimistic that the rebuild will recover your library but it's worth a try.
If the rebuild does not work you'll have to start a new library and import the image files from the damaged one as follows:
1 - rename the iPhoto Library folder that's on the external HD.
2 - launch iPhoto with the Option key depressed and, when asked, select Create a new library, navigate to the external HD and do so.
3 - with the new library open, drag the Originals folder from the old library into the open iPhoto window.
This will give you a new library with the same rolls as the old one. However you'll lose your albums, slideshows, keywords, etc.
To help protect from this type of problem in the future check out the tip at the end of my signature.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

Emailing photo - what am I doing wrong

I have just purchased photoshop elements 9, I have a mac, and I am trying to email a photo which I have adjusted to the size requested which is 1300 w x 1000 h pix at high res, the photo is of the Beatles from 1965 but when I click email attachments a box comes up with a logo which is like something broken, whenever I try to send the picture via regular email it is never the right size, I even paid someone to do it on to a disc and it is still not right when I email it, IT IS ALWAYS TO SMALL, this picture is going to be used on a website header so it is holding everything up what am I doing wrong can anyone help.
Thanks

Do you use OS X mail? Put the photo on the desktop so you know where it is, start a new message in mail, click the attachments button and navigate to the copy you want to send.
Do not use PSE or the Photo Browser in mail. Either will resize the image.

With iOS 6 on my 4th gen iTouch I am finding I no have to delete the playlist from my iTouch, not the when I sync. Now the paylist is being deleted from my library as well. What am I doing wrong?

With the new iOS 6 I have to use on my old iTouch (4th gen) instead of deleting a playlist thru the sync, I was instructed to delete it on the device. Now when I sync I am finding the playlist has been deleted from the library as well. I just want it off teh device, not erased. What am I doing wrong?

I just moved to the UK and am trying to charge my computer yet it won't charge when plugged into the adapter, what am I doing wrong? I'm almost out of battery!!

I just moved to the UK the US. I have a 2009 Macbook Pro and today attempted to charge it, with an adapter for the plug. BUT I can't get the computer to charge, what am I doing wrong? I am almost out of battery! Help!

To be on the safe side, get the travel pack for the magsafe; the UK 3-pin adapter replaces your 2-pin US adapter on the transformer.
Meanwhile, check that the adapter you're using is compatible with the US 2-pin; most adapters sold in UK are for French and German 2-pin plugs, which are slightly differently spaced, so you may not be getting a proper connection.

Cant save images from goggle to ipad any more what am I doing wrong pls

CAnt save image from goggle to ipad any more keeps saying save image failed what am I doing wrong pls

If by "goggle" you mean the Google Chrome browser, then make sure its allowed to use the Camera Roll under Settings->Privacy->Photos, and make sure Chrome is turned on there.
If that's not it perhaps explaining in a bit more detail what you are doing, and what happens when you try to save a picture?

Muddy photos--what am I doing wrong?

Hello all,
I'm a newish Lightroom user. I feel that my photos usually look very muddy around the edges/details when zoomed in in Lightroom.
I am attaching an example that I shot RAW using Canon 5D Mark II with the 24-70mm lens. Is it something I'm doing wrong either when shooting or with post processing?
Thanks so much for any answer.

Basics are not adjusted optimally, consider:
Exposure: Left (you got the whole thing, including midtones shifted too far rightward - highlights are getting jammed and blacks are unhinged).
Contrast: Left (it's a high contrast photo, with little need for midtone contrast, so it seems contrast reduction is called for - will help lift shadows and control highlights without excessive use of highlights & shadows sliders).
Highlights: Left (to preserve highlight detail).
Shadows: Right (to bring light into the woman's darkness).
Whites: Right (to keep dress bright and maintain sense of "contrast", and expand highlights for dress detail).
Blacks: Left (to get rid of that muddiness , and maintain sense of "contrast"). Note: with -contrast & +shadows, -blacks should not make the bottom end too dark.
Clarity to taste...
PS - As you know, you can also use tone curve for fine-tuning tonal distribution, but consider doing most of the heavy lifting with the basics.
PPS - Consider a touch of paint too, to perfect - e.g. +exposure -contrast in darker regions around face/hair - as long as -blacks is strong enough, this should not result in muddiness (or you could "cheat" and use a radial gradient instead of paint ).
Also, consider clicking auto-tone to see what Lr would do with it - can often be highly educational .
Summary: this is a photo that warrants full dynamic range, in my opinion - ideally there should be some black clipping and some white clipping. Within that dynamic range, basics, tone curve and local supplementation for most pleasing tonal distribution...
eh?
UPDATE:
I processed the jpeg screenshot and found a pleasing result by:
* dropping exposure a little bit (not as much as I expected would be needed).
* decreasing contrast a lot.
* increasing whites a lot.
* decreasing blacks a lot.
* minimal -highlights
* minimal +shadows
* one big radial gradient over shadow side (her right) of face (+exposure).
* one small radial gradient over other (her left) eye (+exposure).
* No clarity required.
* Bumped saturation (often helps restore "presence" when reducing contrast to satisfy tonal goals).
Points:
* Minimal use of shadows slider eliminated the harsh look and obviated need for -clarity.
* lowered exposure, coupled with -blacks assured -contrast did not result in loss of "clarity".
* strong -highlights not necessary once exposure dropped, and minimizing it kept photo looking "bright", despite reduced exposure (along with +whites).
* Indeed, all of this left the bride's face too dark, but that's what locals are for - a couple radial gradients and photo looks bright enough all around, with no muddiness.
About me: I'm not a super photographer, so I have to make up for it using Lightroom .
UPDATE #2:
You also asked about shooting - a little fill light (e.g. via flash or whatever else may have been handy, in this case on-axis (e.g. pop-up) would probably have been fine) would have helped and probably eliminated the need to use locals.
Just remember to remove the lens hood before shooting (wider angles) with on-camera flash, or else it casts a nasty shadow (I forget that regularly, so - note to self if not to you...).

I have tried to post a question, but it down not appear in the list. what am I doing wrong?

I cannot reset my iPad. I can't turn it off either.
I can't sync it with my computer because the iPad has a passcode.
I tried a reset holding down the stop button and homie button until the apple logo
appears. It appears and stays on for about 4 minutes That is replaced with the
spinning dot. In about 5 or 6 minutes, that goes off too.
It is running iOS 7. something.
help!
thanks

Yes. You did state that and I missed it. My apologies.
You you could try erasing the device using Find My iPhone, and then try to restore, but if the power button isn't working .... and it's a hardware problem .... you would still be in a bit of a sticky situation.
IF you just connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes, does iTunes see the iPad? If it does, can you click on Restore in the Summary Tab?

When i print my photos are not centered on the sheet, what am I doing wrong

When I print my pictures they are centered on my sheet. I have a HP J6450 Officejet. Are there settings that I have not set up right. I use Photoshop CS4. Hope there is someone that can help me.
Dennis

When you choose print in PS CS4 and the print screen pops up make sure Center Image has a check mark in it.
