New to Mac and IPhoto, would like to organise events
Hello, i have just bought the new macbook pro and I'm trying to sort all of the photos I have uploaded... I think i understand correctly that all photos are stored as an event...you can then edit these and store them as an album (similar to itunes where you would create a playlist) I would like to sort the photos within events as at the minute they all appear within the same album and I would like them sorted rather than creating new albums that would essentially keep everything as is but duplicate the photo. I'm unsure whether to delete the photos are upload again? Hope someone can help!!
iPhoto works similarly to iTunes. Every photo is in the Library and everything else is a subset of the Library.
There are two ways of viewing the Library: One is Events - this is the Library broken into chunks, based on the date and time of the photos. The other view is called Photos, and that's just your whole Library.
Albums are groupings of photos from the Library. They are different from Events in one major way: Photos in Albums simply reference the photos in the Library. A photo can be in 50 albums and use no extra disk space, as it's the same photo that' been referenced. Events use the actual photos. To have a photo in two Events requires a duplicate file, and hence twice the disk space.
I'm afraid I don't understand your query:
I would like to sort the photos within events as at the minute they all appear within the same album...
Photos within Events cannot all appear with the same Album, the two terms are not interchangeable.
...nd I would like them sorted rather than creating new albums that would essentially keep everything as is but duplicate the photo
As I said above, photos in Albums do not duplicate anything.
Events cannot be manually sorted. They are simple, basic level organisation. The day you want to sort manually is the day you outgrow Events
FWIW: Here's a canned post I use to describe an organising set up in iPhoto. Perhaps it will spark something for you:
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums exensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 30k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
Keywording takes time to set up, there's no doubt about it. I use Keyword Manager as it's much more powerful than the inbuilt system, and adds the possibility of nested keywords. So, for instance, if I add John to a photo it also adds 'Family'. Now I can add many keywords to a pic quickly.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.
By all means post again if I haven't answered your query.
Regards
TD

how can I use microsoft word, power point and those apps in my new iMac ? i bought this iMac yesterday so am new on tho and i would like to know
If you absolutely must have the Microsoft applications, you can purchase and download them from http://microsoft.com/mac.
Free software suites LibreOffice and OpenOffice offer similar functionality (word processing and spreadsheets).
Or you could do worse than look at Apple's Pages, Numbers and Keynote, which should already be installed in your Mac and can export to Microsoft formats if need be.

New to mac and iphoto, questions about photo structure & organization
I bought a new Macbook Pro a couple of days ago and am still figuring things out. I wasn't displeased with windows...I just decided to try a mac anyway, So far, I adore it except for one thing, the pictures.
I spent hours researching whether to download and use picasa 3 for mac or iphoto. I decided on picasa....and now I've changed my mind. (Mostly because I tried to take pictures of the moon tonight, and they looked great in camera, but Picasa could only pick up a black screen whearas iphoto actually saw and defined the moon- and with the editing software on the two, the picasa auto-edit looked like a picture that was created in microsoft paint, and iphoto came out with a beautifully contrasted photo).
Now that I decided to use iphoto, I have been researching how to switch and still seem to have a lot of questions. (I've poked around numerous forums but have found conflicting answers on different sites).
1) I organize my pictures by folders with the month and year. I know iphoto organizes events, which it seems to determine based on photo similarity. Will my photo structure still appear in finder -> pictures?
2) Is it possible to stop iphoto from organizing my pictures and just trust me on what I want?
3) All of my friends and family use PCs, and there is a chance that due to financial concerns, when I eventually replace my macbook pro (far in the future) I could switch to a pc. Does iphoto make transferring pictures more difficult? (If I understand correctly, it does not change the photo file, a jpeg is still a jpeg but I want to be sure)
4) I do not want iphoto to duplicate all of the pictures already in my library....if I import from finder-users-pictures, will it simply use those, or duplicate all 150gb worth of pictures?
5) Any other tips for someone completely new to macs and iphoto?
6) This is very silly, but how do I uninstall picasa (I know how to uninstall on a windows but want to make sure I do things correctly on my mac!)
Also, just a "bonus"- regarding events vs. files I create, will iphoto create events within the program but leave my file structure in the library it imports from alone? If I use finder to go to where I store my photos, will I still see my file structure regardless of what iphoto does?(Does that make sense? I'm having a hard time trying to describe it)
I apologize if this question is foolish or misplaced- I did read many other posts but didn't see the answers I was looking for.Your questions are neither foolish nor misplaced.
The first thing I strongly suggest is that you make a trial iPhoto Library. Import 100 or 200 pics and explore. Iphoto isn't right for everybody, and if you're going to use it you will need to rethink things a little.
1) I organize my pictures by folders with the month and year. I know iphoto organizes events, which it seems to determine based on photo similarity. Will my photo structure still appear in finder -> pictures?
A: Events are based entirely on Date and Time not on 'photo similarity' You can set the interval for what makes an Event in the iPhoto Preferences: iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> General Pane: Autosplit into Events... And select from the drop down menu.
Will my photo structure still appear in finder -> pictures?
Yes or no, depending... iPhoto can run as a Referenced or Managed Library. In the former case, yes you files will be visible in the Finder, in the latter case they won't.
Note that Referenced or Managed refers +only to file storage+ It offers no extra functionality, it does nothing at all. App like iPhoto are your go-to app for your photos. If you use it, then you never access the photos via the Finder. Ever. It's always via iPhoto or the many, many hooks into the OS that it has.
I'll detail more on Referenced v Managed below.
2) Is it possible to stop iphoto from organizing my pictures and just trust me on what I want?
I'm not sure what you mean by this. Iphoto does basic date and time organisation by default. You can change it, you can change the location of the photos in Events, merge them and then using the other tools available - Albums, Smart Albums, Faces, Places etc you can organise your photos whatever way you want.
But what do you mean by pictures. There is a distinction between Photos - the image of your child holding his dog - and files: A Jpeg is just a file. Iphoto is designed for you to +forget about the jpeg+ and get on with the interesting bit: the pics of your younger and his pet.
3) All of my friends and family use PCs, and there is a chance that due to financial concerns, when I eventually replace my macbook pro (far in the future) I could switch to a pc. Does iphoto make transferring pictures more difficult? (If I understand correctly, it does not change the photo file, a jpeg is still a jpeg but I want to be sure)
A Jpeg is a Jpeg is a Jpeg. If you migrate to another app or an entire OS you can export the photos plus any and all metadata you've added to the Finder and move it on. (Caveat: You cannot export Faces. There is no agreed standard on any system for exchanging this info.)
4) I do not want iphoto to duplicate all of the pictures already in my library....if I import from finder-users-pictures, will it simply use those, or duplicate all 150gb worth of pictures?
It can do either. And this brings me back to the Referenced v Managed discussion above. By default, iPhoto will Manage the files, that is, it will copy them into the Library. You can choose not to, but I strongly recommend that you don't:
*How to do it:*
Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
*What Happens:*
Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
*Some things to consider:*
1. Importing and deleting pics are more complex procedures. You have to to put the files where they will be stored before importing them. When you delete them you'll need to remove the files from the HD yourself.
2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
4. Because iPhoto has no tools for managing Referenced Files, if, for some reason, the path to the photos changes then you could find yourself resolving aliases for +each photo in the Library+ one by one.
My own opinion:
I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers
If disk space is an issue, you can run an entire iPhoto Library from an external disk:
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
If you're concerned about accessing the files, There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and later:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
*If you want to edit the photo in another application:*
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.
5) Any other tips for someone completely new to macs and iphoto?
*To Push Home a point*
For someone inexperienced with Macs and inexperienced with iPhoto I cannot stress enough that Managed Library is the way to go. I understand there is comfort in seeing all those folders. But inside the Library that's all there is: all those folders, stored so that an inexperienced user can't grub things up!
The iPhoto Library Folder is a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. Want to see inside?
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
Now close that window and forget about it.
So, once you've imported your photos to iPhoto in a Managed Library, the surplus duplicates are +your folders+. Of course, in time, trash them to get back the wasted disk space. But don't do it today or tomorrow. There's no hurry. When you feel confident that you understand how iPhoto is working and that's it's working for you, theat's the time to reclaim the space.
I organize my pictures by folders with the month and year.
If you want to duplicate your Folder Tree in iPhoto:
Start at the bottom of the hierarchy and drag a folder of images to the Album Heading in iPhoto. The pics will be imported and an Album of the same name created.
You can then create the Enclosing Folders in the iPhoto Window (File -> New Folder) and drag the Album to it. Folders can contain other Folders (Nested Folders) and Albums.
However, is your folder system date based? Then this form of organisation is a bit pointless in iPhoto when Smart Albums or the Calendar tool (Click on the wee magnifying glass in the Search Box) mean you can find the photos taken on any day, month or year at a click. With Smart Albums it's easy to find photos from specific range - say, June 3 to August 25, 2009 etc.
If your folder system is theme based - Xmas pics, Birthday pics etc, then you'll find Keywords are much more flexible, and can be used in conjunction with other criteria for making Smart Albums and searches.
6) This is very silly, but how do I uninstall picasa (I know how to uninstall on a windows but want to make sure I do things correctly on my mac!)
Drag the app to the trash and empty it.

I am very new to Macs and iPhoto so this may be an idiot's question, but I have just created my first photo book and want to buy it, but the "buy book" button is not highlighted and when I click it nothing happens. Is there some step I am missing or some connection I need? I am on the internet. Thanks!
I have now recently downloaded 10.0.2 which is confusing in itself, as, as far as I can ascertain that is actually version 11, but I'm not even sure about that.
Version 10.0.2 is the newest version and the successor to GarageBand '11 (version 6.0.5).
The '11 is referring to the iLife '11 suit of multimedia application - the older GarageBand was a part of this bundle.
Have a look at Edgar's graphical enhanced manuals, the explain very detailed how things work and why. You can buy them as iBooks from the iBook store or directly from the page:

Background...
I joined the Mac bandwagon about 2 months ago. I am still getting used to it, but like it so far. Last week, I activated a new Iphone on my Imac. I needed to key in my userid and password. 3 days later, my itunes account was hacked into. My itunes information was scrambled. My itunes email, home address, and password were changed. Also, they didn't use my credit card which was attached to my account to make any purchases (they deleted my card and put someone else's card on my account to buy $100 worth of gift cards). I didn't receive any emails from Apple that my password, or email were changed, but I did get 2 receipts from the Itunes Store identifiying the purchases. Apple support fixed everything, but couldn't offer any explanation on what happened, other than to say my account was "modified". I don't like coincidences.
I freely admit that I didn't do enough to protect my login credentials as I used the same userid and password on multiple sites (since corrected). I still don't know how my account was accessed. I started to wonder if there may have been a key logger installed on my Imac without my knowing it. I am pretty careful with installing software and have purchase about 15 applications, all either from the itunes store, or from other reputable sources. I have never made any in-app purchases.
I understand that to install a key logger you would need to supply the admin password, which brings me to my question....
About 4 weeks ago, my wife was using the Imac on facebook. While she was there, the Imac experienced a hard crash. We had to do push and hold the button on the back of Imac to get it to shut down and reboot. When it came up, it required the admin password, and dropped me into a mode where it wouldn't recognize the external disk drive which was attached via USB. I needed to restart the machine and everything appeared to be normal. I assumed that this was Apples version of "safe" mode, but now I am not so sure. Could a key logger have been installed during this event? Is this expected behavior after a hard reset?
I have McAfee for Mac installed and it hasn't detected any threats, but McAfee is pretty wishy-washy on it's ability to detect key loggers. I am thinking about Macscan or Little Snitch. I would do a reinstall of the OS, if I only knew how.
Any help?your itunes accoutn have nothing to d with your computer

This may seem like a dumb question, but I've learned to ask them anyway. I am a recnet convert from windows - I bought my first mac (imac) and am in the process of learning the system. In transfered my pics from my PC to the photo floder in my "finder". From there, I dragged them into iphoto to organize them and what-not. my question is, are my pics now being stored in association with iphoto, or are they being accessed from the picture folder in the finder. If I delete from iphot, are pics also being deleted from my picture folder? And, if I delete from my picture folder, will pics in iphot also be deleted?
Thanks - any help would be greatly appreciated!
JimJim
There are no dumb question.
Assuming you have not changed the +default settings+ then when you imported the pics into iPhoto it copied them into the Library, and that means you have two copies of the same photos taking up space.
iPhoto will not manage any photos outside it's own Library, so if you delete a photo from iPhoto it deletes the version inside the Library and no version outside of that.

xcopy /y /v /e .\%p%\* \\10.0.0.%%y\e\
)Hi
csharplearner1,
Please refer to this reply from "herenvardo". Here it is a good response.
I am referring from Convert batch file to C#.
<copied>
The answer to your question would be both yes and no. If your goal is to build a C# program that performs the same task as your batch, sure, it can be done and it shouldn't take too much work. If what you're looking for is some kind of "magical"
translator that would do this work for you, I don't know any tool able to do that, and don't even hope such a tool exists.
The main points you need to care about are:
Since batches are by definition console-based, you'll be doing a console application. When you create a new Console Application project, the Visual Studio IDE will take care of some things four you, leading you to a .cs file with some code already on
it. Once you're there, you'll have to add your code inside the Main function (unless you need to create more functions, but in the case of a simple script like yours, I don't think that would be needed).
Instead of invoking DOS commands, such as xcopy, you'll be calling different .NET methods.
Unfortunately, there is no direct equivalent to xcopy: you'll need to iterate the entire directory tree manually. You should take a look at
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc148994.aspx
to get a glimpse on simple file operations, and at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb513869.aspx for two different ways to iterate directory trees (I suggest the recursive approach of the first example, unless the volume of files on your dir is
huge enough to make it crash).
For the case of echo, you'll be using Console.WriteLine.
You are using a different language, so the syntax will also be diferent. If you're just starting with C#, don't worry too much if you get a lot of "; expected" error messages (or any other) on your first try: just read the error messages and
correct the mistakes. If the message doesn't help you enough, right-click it on the error list and select "Show Error Help". If still you don't know how to solve it, ask about the specific error on these forums.
If you have some experience in C#, then this conversion shouldn't be much of a challenge. And if you don't, it's a great chance for you to learn a lot without too much effort.
</copied>
In addition, about net use command, I would suggest you could use WMI and the classes from the System.Management namespace.
ConnectionOptions connection = new ConnectionOptions();
connection.Username = "username";
connection.Password = "password";
connection.Authority = "ntlmdomain:DOMAIN";
ManagementScope scope = new ManagementScope(
"\\\\"+IPAddress1+"\\root\\CIMV2", connection);
scope.Connect();

I'm new to Mac and iPhoto. How do I change 2.9Mb to 1Kb?
I need to reduce the photo so that it will be accepted for a special app but I haven't been able to figure out how to get iPhoto to do this.
If you select export from the File menu, you will have the opportunity to change the size of the photo. The measurements are in pixels, so you will need to experiment to find the proper size. As a guess, I think I would try 600 pixels which is a suitable size for the web. Change the size, export the photo to pictures and The size in Kb will be indicated. It may take some experimenting to get the size you desire.

For some strange reason my contacts are not populating on my macbook from my iPhone. I have iCloud turned on on both devices and I have selected the contacts folder to be in the cloud but my macbook isn't populating the data.
To copy your exchange account contacts to iCloud, do the following:
Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
Download the app My Contacts Backup. (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer from our exchange account you will need the “Pro” version. If you aren't sure, start with the free version. When you use it, it will tell you if you need the paid version.) Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone (from your exchange account) as a vCard attachment to an email that and send the email to yourself. Confirm that you have received the email.
Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section) and set this to iCloud.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars…tap your exchange account and turn off contacts syncing.*
Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the exchange contacts back to your device, and to iCloud. Go to icloud.com to confirm that the contacts are there. If you ever want to "refresh" this with your current exchange contacts, you can reply to this conversation in the future and I can give you the steps to do so.
* You could leave it turned on if you want to reference it occasionally. If you do, just open contacts and tap Groups, then tap the exchange account so it is unchecked and tap Done. That will hide them from view so you don't see duplicates. -
I am fairly new to using Mac computers, I would like to know how to uninstall drivers, software and anything else I may install on my computer. With PC it's very easy, you go the control panel, locate what you want to uninstall and with a few clicks it's done. Can someone please help me? Thank you.

Good afternoon,
I have a set of 5 speakers and 1 subwoofer 5.1 from Altec Lansing and I would like to connect the 3 exit cables - 1 black + 1 green + 1 yellow - to my new i-mac 22" - acquired last week - equipped with only 4 USB 3.0 + 2 Thunderbolt + 1 Ethernet + 1 jack for micro or speaker.
What connector type do I need? And where can I connect ot?
Many thanks in advance for your help
Best regards
Pascal QuennessonSorry you cannot
That speaker system is for sound cards on PC's which separate the channels, the Mac's don't seperate the channels or decode surround sound formats and only pass the 5.1 through the dual analog/optical stereo mini port.
You might find a external device that accepts Toslink optical inputs and then separates the channels and sends the appropriate signal to the powered speakers. -
Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.
Yes - well you have to make the file in a word processing Application.
You could use TextEdit (it's free) Pages (words only), or Numbers (data base) (they are part of iWorks - and may or may not be free (included) on your machine. You could use MS Office (it is not free) You could use any Open source word processor that plays well with Office (NeoOffice, StarOffice) they are free.
That's how you create content and copy/paste URLS. Then you save the file to the desktop. If you are going to make more than one file... you make a folder on the desktop and save, or drag the file(s) into it.
You attach it to your e-mail client which will compress it and e-mail it. An excellent reference is to use Help, from the menu bar, also from inside any application. From your library or book store the OS X for Dummies has a lot of useful information (you don't read it cover to cover but look up chapters about what you'd like to do)
You can also make appointments at your local Apple store for individualized help (if a store is nearby)
