Organizing pictures in nano

Hi all,
Is there any way I can view/organize the uploaded pictures into separate folder? Thank you.
Jack

Thanks, that was easy enough. Unfortunately, I seem to have a different problem than what I thought. If I click on a photo a different photo from my library shows up. This all began when I was trying to delete a large amount of pictures from the library. I used the apple key to highlite the pictures that I had wanted to delete. By using the apple key I thought I was simply picking random pictures rather than have to pick them one at a time, or use the shift key to pick a row of pictures. While I was doing this I noticed that rows of pictures were changing their order. (the top of the library were the pictures that were earliest in my picture taking).
Help if you can.

Organizing pictures in events

Is there a way to delete duplicate pictures in events once you have organized them or put them into an event>

mrssue:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Just drag the photo into iPhoto's trash bin and empty via the iPhoto menu.
Remember if you delete from an event they are gone for good. If deleted from an album it's only removed from that album.
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.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Organized pictures an hour ago, and now they're gone

I'm so confused.
An hour ago I was going through my photos in iPhoto, organizing them into events. I quit iPhoto and did other stuff.
Then I reopened iPhoto ... and it told me it couldn't find my Library and asked if I wanted to start a new one. None of my pictures showed up in the Library. I tried Import, thinking maybe I could find the iPhoto library that had my pictures in it, but it wouldn't open the only one I could find, which was called Library.iPhoto.
I can't find any of my pictures anywhere, not even by searching for them. What happened?

It sounds like iPhoto lost the link to the iPhoto Library package. It is located in your Pictures folder. If iPhoto make a new library it probably is there also and named iPhoto Library_1. Check the Pictures folder to see if the library is there.
If it is, check it's size via the Finder to make sure it contains your photos. Then launch iPhoto with the Option key depressed and, when asked, opt to Choose Library. Navigate to the Pictures folder and select the library.
If that still doesn't help, try the three fixes below in order as needed:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select all options.
2 - rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: It may take some time to create the new library if you have a lot of photos.
3 - start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from your original library as follows:
Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
Open the library package like this.
Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open Photo window
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.

Organizing pictures in IPhoto

If I have uploaded photos from multiple CDs and cameras into the same album, i.e. "ireland 2007," how do I organize them so that the same photos are together? My recent family vaccation produced lots of pictures on multiple cameras and I would like to get them all grouped by each place we took pictures without having to keep highlighting and dragging. Help??

Hi.
With the PC you were used to file browsing, in which you had to deal with the files directly. The whole philosophy of iPhoto is that you never touch the files and folders in the library folder. Once you import your photos into iPhoto, you manipulate them through the application.
When you make Albums in iPhoto, you select the photos you want from the iPhoto window and create the Albums. There's no going into the folder structure at all.
I love Photoshop Elements. It will work seamlessly with iPhoto, as part of a larger workflow. In iPhoto's Preferences, see where it says Edit photos in... You choose Other, then navigate to Photoshop Elements in your Applications folder. Once done, you can select up to 4 thumbnails in the iPhoto window, double-click, and they will open in Elements for editing. To save your edits, do a Save in Elements, and the edited version will be written to your iPhoto Library. Do not "Save As" with a different file name or location, because those changes will not be recognized by the iPhoto database. If Elements creates a layered .psd file you can flatten, then save the jpeg. Or to keep the layers, Save As to a location OUTside the iPhoto Library folder (the desktop is convenient) then use iPhoto to import that file to the library as a new original.
You can also right-click (Control-click) a thumbnail and choose how you want to edit it. You can choose among several iPhoto edit modes, or choose your external editor (Elements). If you click on the iPhoto Full-Screen Edit Mode icon (the box with the arrows pointing outward) in the lower iPhoto toolbar, then the photo opens for editing in iPhoto. This is useful for quick cropping or red-eye fix, for example.
I recommend that you do not try to use Adobe Bridge (or any other file browser) to browse the iPhoto Library folder. If you do, you are accessing the photos directly from their folders. Any changes you make to the photos will not be recognized by the database, and you can damage your library. Think of iPhoto as a much superior substitute for Bridge. Some people delete it from their Macs. I do keep some image files outside of my iPhoto library for digital scrapbooking. I use Bridge to browse those files.
When you edit a photo in your library, iPhoto keeps the Original and saves your edits in its Modified version. You can always revert to the original if you wish to delete your edits. Each photo in your library exists only once inside the library folder structure (in up to 3 versions: Original, Modified, and thumbnail). Albums are virtual structures that exist only in the iPhoto database file. That is, placing a photo in an album does not duplicate the file on your hard drive. This allows you to place a photo in one album, 100, or none, with no duplication. When you edit a photo, the Modified version will appear in every instance of the photo in your library. If you wish to have one version in one album, and a different edited version in another album, you can create a Duplicate in your library and edit the duplicate, resulting in 2 separate, unlinked sets of that photo in your library.
Apple has created a set of multimedia tutorials that can help you get started with iPhoto and the other apps in the iLife suite. I found them helpful and easy to understand. For the iPhoto tutorial, start here: http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/iphoto/

Organizing pictures before burning to cd

I have created a "folder" under "events" of all pictures taken in 2006 and 2007.
I need to create an album with "sub" divisions of different pictures within these time frames . I know how to create the album from this specific time period, but I can't seem to break down the specific pictures into groups after I create the album.
Does this have to be done "prior" to creating the album and if so how?

georgia
Some clarifications of Terms:
Photos go into Albums.
Albums go into Folders
Events go into nothing.
So, do you mean you’ve created an Album of ”all pictures taken in 2006 and 2007"?
You cannot have “sun-albums. So the trick is to make albums of these sub-groups and then put those Albums into a Folder.

Organizing pictures in events manually

Hello,
I have about 500 plus pictures in an event say pictures.
I want to organize the pics in the event manually according to my order, when I click View>sort photos> the manual button is grey.
I am able to manually sort pics in Photos or the event it self but not the pics in the event
Please help as the pics are all mixed up

That is not a feature of iPhoto - events are the most basic default organization and have very limited sort options - manual is not available - use albums for that
Events essentially are time based

Organizing pictures in library

Trouble organizing pictures on my mac

Hi there,
I have iPhoto and use it quite a bit however I've noticed that I seem to have duplicates all over the place now. What I mean is I upload pictures, they go directly into IPhoto...then someone sends me pictures and i save them in a folder under 'pictures'. The problem now is that I've got pics in iPhoto, modified pics in the library and originals...and then i have other pics stored elsewhere.
I think that maybe I was using iPhoto incorrectly in the first place...When i upload new digital pics, I prefer to edit using another software so can someone explain to me the best way to use iPhoto and store my pictures without having a million duplicates all over my Mac.
THanks

When you import pics to iPhoto the are (by default) copied to the iPhoto Library. This means that the pics that you have saved also in the Pictures folder (but NOT in the iPhoto Library) are duplicates and unnecessary.
Here's the absolute best advice I can give you about the iPhoto Library: It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss.
Here's how the Library is laid out: In this folder there are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
(ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
This allows the Photos -> Revert to Original command - very useful if you don't like the changes you've made.
(iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
ALL of these are necessary for the proper running of iPhoto.
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.

Organizing tracks on nano ipod

I need help with how to organize tracks. I downloaded a book from cd's (free from library by the way) and I don't know how to get it in order on my nano. Thanks! for any suggestions! KR in FL

Problems organizing pictures

I have a problem, I am sure that we all have or face. I have a iMac as well as my MacBook Pro, plus iPhones Apple Tvs and iPads. I use lightroom 5 for photo organization (yes I love the new lighroom) but the common problem I face is that I can never sync anything between my iMac and MacBook. It is extremely stressful using an external drive to take from computer to computer. I was wondering if there is a way to organize and sync your lightroom catalog as well as all your pictures across all devises. I have head of Mosaic but I don't know much about it. Anyone have a solution that will sync changes as well as pictures?

No then you wouldn't have access. But once you setup a network between the 2 Mac's you can then copy the catalog back and forth between the 2 keeping both in sync with one another.
Yes you can also do that with a external drive but using the network, LAN, that is already setup in your home to share your internet connection is much easier.
The only problem with that is you have to have the same version of LR installed on both Mac's. Adobe changes the LR catalog structure from version to version. I'm not sure if they did this between V4 & V5 as I haven't bought V5 yet. But they did with V3 to V4. So if you have V4 on one system and V5 on the other you might not be able to copy it over.

Iphoto - organizing Pictures into albums

In iphoto, I drag photos to an album and it bounces back. Album won't take it, like its full. I've been doing it all night and all of a sudden I cant add anymore. Any help

Album won't take it, like its full. I've been doing it all night and all of a sudden I cant add anymore.
Can you drag photos to albums, if you open a different iPhoto library? Try to create a new library, import a few photos, create an album. Can you add photos to this album?
If yes, try, if repairing your iPhoto library will help. Hold down the keys ⎇⌘, while launching iPhoto and keep holding them down, until you are seeing the First Aid panel:
Try all First Aid options in turn. Before rebuilding, make sure you have a working backup.

Organizing pictures

I was sorting photos. My computer starting auto saving them, I assume to the cloud. After the save was completed. ALL of the photos are in the same folder. Is there a way to return them to their specific albums. There are thousands. If it can't be put back I have to sort them by hand which will take days.

Load your backup fropm just before the problem occured
