Albums vs Folders from iPhoto does not show folders on Apple TV

Does anyone have a work around to assist organization of Albums on Apple TV into Folders from iPhoto. We have 12,000 images on iMac organized into 30 Folders within which are 80++ albums. When synced the Apple TV only displays albums, all Folders deleted. The consequence is having to scroll through the 80+ albums when seeking the one album you want to watch. This poor form of organization on Apple TV is really cumbersome and driving us nuts.

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
The tv can use events as well as albums, although this doesn't resolve the OP's issue, which is simply one of a large number of photo albums. I have a lot of photo albums (without checking, I think I have around 250) and scrolling through them can be challenging.
What I do is to keep albums organised into groups such as 'Holidays', 'Weddings' etc and introduce a specific character at the start of the album title, which indicates which group the album belongs to.
For example ' ☼ Marmaris 2008 ' or ' ♡ Mark and Jasmine's Wedding 1969 '
It doesn't reduce the long list of albums on the tv, but it does help to keep themed albums together in the list and so makes finding the specific album you are looking for much easier.

  • Slideshow from iphoto does not show in firefox/safari (only mac mode)

    hi there,
    i have a problem:
    i have created a website in iweb '08 and everything works fine, except the slideshow.
    i have exported a slideshow from iphoto as a quicktime file. i have placed this slideshow in my website.
    it is shown once only when opened in firefox or safari and then never again. if i change to windows, i have no
    problem, it is shown in both firefox (for windows) and IE without any trouble.
    does anyone know how i can fix this problem? and why is it mac related but works fine in windows?
    i would be soo grateful for any suggestions!
    thanks!

    What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?

  • IPhoto does not show last import

    iPhoto does not show last import. When I try to re-import photos from a desktop file it says the photos are already in the iphoto library and cannot be imported. What do I do? I've already re-installed iPhoto 09 and run updates.

    Are you saying that the last import is not showing in the last import section of the source pane or is not in the Events in the library window? If you do not see the event then your camera has the wrong date - look in the last import album and find the date and then go to that date in the events - it will be there - if you want you can then slelect the photos and use the adjust time and date command to fix it - check change original files

  • IPhoto does not show photos in my iPhone

    Hi!
    As the title has said, my iPhoto does not show photos from my iPhone, but it DOES recognize that iPhone is connected.
    But before all of this happened, I changed my setting (which I forgot how to reset that) to NOT open iPhoto automatically when my phone is connected.
    And also, a week ago, my iPhone usb cable seems to be spoiled at one end. It can still connect the phone to the laptop, but very loosely - as if some wires inside are broken.
    So I really do not know if the problem I mentioned is caused by my setting OR is it because of my spoiled cable (that it could not transfer the photos from the phone)
    And if it is believed that it is caused by my setting, could you please guide me on how to re-set the whole thing?
    Thank you very much.
    Ps. I can still sync my songs in itunes to my music in iPhone.

    "But before all of this happened, I changed my setting (which I forgot how to reset that) to NOT open iPhoto automatically when my phone is connected."
    Launch iPhtoto.
    In the menu, iPhoto>Preferences>General.
    Change it back.

  • Please help! I have photoshop and iphoto does not show it in my preferences edit window. How do I get it as an option in my preferences.

    Please help! I have photoshop and iphoto does not show it in my preferences edit window. How do I get it as an option in my preferences.

    I tried it and nothing changed. Even when I right click on an indiviual image all it does is duplicate it. Iphoto seems to be recognizing my external hard drive as an editor......cannot get photoshop except to drag a picture into photoshop from iphoto, and once I have worked on it and saved it to iphoto I cant find it anywhere.

  • I have photoshop elements 9 and iphoto does not show it in my preferences edit window. How do I get it as an option in my preferences

    I have photoshop elements 9 and iphoto does not show it in my advaced preferences drop down, it used to be there, how do I get it back again?

    Hi, Yes you are correct in iPhoto Prefernces, Advanced tab editing I used to have iPhoto and "Use external editor.". It changed to iPhoto and iPhoto Library. I have einstaleed PSE 9 and downloaded the update.  There is still no lkink to external editor in the drop down box.  Have I done something wrong inadvertently or is there a clitch?  can you reinstal iPhoto.  I am new to Macs. Every thing came preinstalled.  it is the top of the range system with 16 Gb of rRAM, 2 Tb hard drive to top graphics card etc.  I used to be on Windows PC.  Have more than 27,000 photos on the system.  Much apprecite your reply and interest in this.

  • Events folders in iphoto is not showing in my ipad

    Events folders in iphoto is not showing in my ipad, it's showing only in imac and iphone, what can i do to make it in my ipad ?

    Probably
    do they show in last import? Probably they do - then you have one of two problems
    1 - incorrect event sort - correct under the view menu ==> sort events
    OR
    2 - incorrect date/time setting on the camera - correct using the camera menu to set the correct date/time for future photos and the ones already imported correct by selecting them in the last import and using the adjust time/date command

    Of the request and IMEI number. Is there a way from the phone i can verify it was unlocked?
    If AT&T e-mail says it is unlocked, then believe it is so. Insert non-AT&T SIM inside and after backing up restore in iTunes again. Unlock gets attached.
    You can check the status of the unlock request on AT&T web-site.

    Depends on where you got it - if it came on yoru compujter then you need to have accepeted it in the App store - and it will be in your purchases when you log in with the Apple ID that you used to set up your computer - it mahy be hidden - if you do not find it unhide applications in teh App store

    It won't show up on your Apple TV until it is fully downloaded into iTunes on your computer, have you done this.

    Hi jackburkholder,
    You will need to delete the iCloud account with your old ID, but before you can do that, you will have to go back into Manage Your Apple ID, and change your Apple ID back to the old address. Don't worry about verifying it, you just need to change it.
    Then, go into Settings>iCloud and turn off Find My iPhone (it will ask you for a password - put in your current one to turn it off). Then, scroll down to the bottom of the screen and Delete the iCloud account using your current password.
    Also go into Settings>iTunes & App Store, clidk on your old ID and sign out of iTunes.
    Then go back to Manage Your Apple ID and put your new Apple ID back in.
    Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign on with your new Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID.
    Go back into Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign on with your new Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID.
    Cheers,

  • Photos albums from iphoto will not show in iweb media section

    Hello
    I have 2 issues. Photo albums that I created in Iphoto will not show in the Iweb media section. Also, all of the photos from half the Photo pages go missing after I update and republish to my site. They still show on the site but the photos are not longer showing in Iweb and have to be added back to the photo pages.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
    1 - close iWeb.
    2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
    3 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
    4 - reboot.
    5 - launch iWeb and try again.

  • ITunes 10.5.1 for Mac: Album artwork is there, but does not show in album overview

    I have certain self-sampled albums which have the correct artwork embedded in every track, but in the album overview the artwork does not show. However, the artwork is there, because as soon as I select the album, the artwork presents itself in the left lower corner of iTunes.
    Is there a way to rebuild the artwork thumbnauils that are presented in the album overview - similar to iPhoto?
    Thank you very much for your kind help, Stefan

    In Post iTunes 10.5.1 Album Artwork Dilemma, User cul cul la praline recommended a user with a similar problem to apply the script "Embed Artwork" from Doug's applescript page. I followed his advice, but chose the script "Re-Embed Artwork".
    Funny enough, the script resolved part of my problem. I the album overview, some albums still carry the grey note, but when I single-click them, they change to display the cover art ...

  • IPhoto does not show photo's downloaded

    In iPhoto, my photo's I have downloaded from facebook or other sights appear as grey squares and does not show the photo's. However when I run the cursor over them, each photo appears for a brief second then back to a grey square. How can I view these?

    This has nothing to do with Pages.

  • Drop Down In List From Lookup Does Not show all items in mobile view

    I have list called "incident".
    I have a list called "locations"
    The "incident" list looks up a value from the "location" list as a dropdown.
    The location list contains 25 building names.
    When I try to fill out the "incident" list in mobile view
    the "location" drop down only shows 16 items. I checked the "locations" mobile view limit and set it to 99 to make sure all would show up.
    The desktop view for the "incident" list shows all 25 buildings from the "locations" list.
    Any advice on how to get those extra 7 locations to show up?
    Jef

    Still don't have an answer. I'm now looking to use a radio button or something to use as a work-around. If I use a lookup and tell it to allow multiple selections (shows as checkbox) it does not show all values in the mobile view.
    If I input each item and choose choice, it only shows up as dropdown. I need radio buttons. If I choose lookup and allow multiple selections, it does not show all the options.
    I need some help on this.
