Are all the pictures in Events in the master photos?  Are they duplicates?

Are all the pictures in Events in the master photos?  Are they duplicates? I need to clean up my events list.

Here's how iPhoto works.
Every Photo is in the Library. There are two ways of looking at the Library: Events View and Photos view. There is no duplication here. These are just two doors into the same room, as it were, two ways of showing you the exact same data.
The Library contains your Master photos.
Everything else: Albums, Smart Albums, Folders, Slideshows etc simply reference items in the Library. Again there is no duplication, just the same data viewed in different ways. So the photo you see in an Album is the same photo that's in the Event or Photos view of the Library.
This is like iTunes. Every track is in the Library, each playlist just contains a link to the track.
To delete from iPhoto: Drag the items from the Library (either Events or Photos View, doesn't matter) to the iPhoto Trash. Empty it, then empty the System Trash.

  • Why are all my pictures being saved to the Camera Roll album?

    Hi
    Every image saved to my iPhone 5s (iOS 8.1) is saved to the Camera Roll album and not to any other folders i.e. Snapchat images are not saved to a Snapchat folder, Instagram pictures not saved to an Instagram folder, Twitter pictures nto saved to a Twitter folder.
    Also, in a possibly unrelated query, I moved a large chunk of images from my Camera Roll to a separate folder (called "London" for my visit of the city) but they also still remain in the Camera Roll album.
    Can anyone help me out?
    Thanks

    I've just received my iPhone 6 & upgraded to ios8.1.
    After I set up my new phone & restore my icloud backup from my old iPhone 4, I found that the photo album cannot be used, photo taken by the camera cannot be saved (anyway the thumbnail of the photo just taken was showed on the bottom left corner).
    When I go into my photo album, there are no photo at all.
    Same with videos. Instagram works fine, facebook crashes when I try to take photos. Camera + works with the app photo stream, but gives error message when I try to save camera+ stream to camera roll
    I tried to reset & delete everything for 5-6 times, the problem still there.
    Anyone can help on this problem please?

  • My iphone 4G has 1165 photos and NONE of them can be seen in the DCIM. None of my videos either. The folder is empty. Where the heck are all my pictures?

    With my old 3GS I could connect the phone and navigate to a folder that contained all my pictures and copy them off or view them. Now with my iphone 4G, I connect the phone, navigate to the DCIM folder and it's empty! WTH? Where are all my pictures? I hate having to use itunes because it's performamce is beyond terrible. It takes several minutes to even start and when I click on anything in itunes and I have to wait 20 seconds or more before it responds, then I can click on the next thing wait 20 seconds or more, and so on. Every other application I have is ripping fast. It's horrible. Is apple deliberately making this a giant pain!? Where are all my pictures and video?

    The DCIM folder is for your Camera Roll.  The pics synced from iTunes will not show up there, only pics taken with the iPhone.

  • When I attempt to open iphoto, I get the loading icon in the working space/picture area.  If I try to reinstall ilife '11, will I lose any pictures?  Where, on the hard drive, are all my pictures actually stored?

    You won't lose anything because you have a back up, right?
    Most Simple Back Up
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex:
    Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • I can see the pictures in Events in iPhoto, but I can't open them.  When I right click on an Event it just says Edit, but won't open all the pictures in Events.  It used to open, but something is wrong.  I would appreciate any assistance.  Thank you.

    Hi Terence,
    I got your note and was able to complete the first part, but when I came to Finder, Go To Folder and I typed in both     /var/db/receipts/    and /private/var/db/receipts all I get is NOT FOUND message.  I tried several times, but no luck.
    Please advise.
    Thank you.

  • Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?

    Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?
    On another note, the iPhone tells me that it's ''busy'' when opening a photo on the computer.
    (I tried restarting my PC, connecting via another USB port, importing using PhotoStream, etc...)

    Are you using the front or rear camera? When you say they are low quality, are you referring to file/pixel size, or how the picture looks? As far as upside down, how are you holding the phone? Older versions of Windows have issues reading the Metadata from the pictures and will not display the same.

  • How can I import pictures from my iphone to PC which I imported to the iphone from another PC? The folder doesn't show on my computer. I see all other pictures I took with the phone but not the imported folder.

    How can I import pictures from my iphone to PC which I imported to the iphone from another PC? The folder doesn't show on my computer. I see all other pictures I took with the phone but not the imported folder.

    Photos that were synced from a computer won't show for copying to a computer. If you want to copy them back then you will need a third-party app on your phone such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer (e.g. their dimensions might be different and their colours may look a bit different).

  • I lost a folder, with all the pictures, while trying to move some photos to a diferent folder (both folders disappeared)

    I was trying to move some pictures from a folder to another, but all the pictures disappeared! Even the folder that the pictures were! I searched all my computer but I can't find them! Does anyone know what can I do??
    Before I lost all pictures a message appeared asking if I wanted to replace the photos that have the same name, and I said "yes" and "do this to all"; after that a message appeared saying that there was an error and the pictures were note moved, but all my files disapeared!!
    I search even the trash (it is empty) and don't know whatelse to do!
    I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks

    First of all, we'd need to know what version of Bridge, Photoshop and the OS you are using.
    One of the earliest versions of Bridge was indeed known occasionally to disappear files and/or folders, but that was a long time ago, in CS2 I believe.  Later versions do not do that.
    Do a search for the names of the files and or folder(s), not with the pretty useless Spotlight or the Finder Search (which uses the same, limited Spotlight search engine).  Instead, try the free EasyFind.  http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/8707
    Second, I'll assume you mean folder when you type "a file with all my photos in it". Unless you put the folder in the trash and then deliberately emptied the trash, it's more likely you just accidentally stuck the folder inside another one, or accidentally renamed it.  EasyFind will find it or its contents.
    If EasyFind fails to find a trace of any of the files or of the folder, then the files are indeed gone. but that 's highly unlikely unless you deliberately empied the trash.
    Good luck.

  • I'm using 9.2.1.  Every time I open an album, I get a "face (the same one)" covering every picture. If I click on the picture, I can see the real picture.  How do I get rid of this "face" that covers all?

    Make a temporary backup of your library (if you don't already have a backup of it) and launch iPhoto with the Command +Option key held down and rebuild the library with options #1, 2, 3 and 6 selected.

  • Color space-creating a book in My publisher-.when I look at the share book pre print the colors are all dulled out. I work in pro photo rgb in LR and PS -.My Pub is sRGB-.where is the problem?

    Color space…creating a book in My publisher….when I look at the share book pre print the colors are all dulled out. I work in pro photo rgb in LR and PS ….My Pub is sRGB….where is the problem?

    I finally got to my references. This had to do with "soft proofing" on screen in Photoshop.
    So this may not help you at all. Re: Strange sRGB soft-proofing behavior  So go ahead and leave that setting at Basic.
    However there is a Color Management forum that you also go to and see if anyone has answers for your particular problem.
    Here is the link: Color management
    I hope they can help you out.

    I have a tiny problem that is driving me mad. When I am playing an album in iTunes using cover flow view (with the playlist beneath the artwork picture) the  picture is exactly above the album title. All is symmetrical. When I switch to full screen display, the artwork moves a couple of inches to the left and the display is therefore asymmetrical. Why and how do I correct it? It would drive you mad to.
    Thanks for any help,
    Graham

    I was having the same problem, but tried the "Top Button + Home Button" reset and that did work for me. My unofficial guess is that perhaps RAM caches get filled through daily use of various apps leaving no memory for cover flow. Resetting the phone on the phone itself seems to reset that RAM. I can't say it's a cure-all, but it solved my issue. Hope this helps.

  • Why is it when i take a picture with my new iphone 5S, the pictures aren't saved to my photos?

    why is it when I take pictures with my new iphone 5S, the pictures aren't saving to my photos?  The only pictures showing up in my photos are the ones from when I first restored my phone from icloud.

    Hi AmishCake.
    I tried that and it didn't work.

  • 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

  • HT4859 How do I retrieve my photos from the cloud after a reset. My photos are gone from my phone, and I backed them up on iCloud?

    How do I retrieve my photos from the cloud after a reset. My photos are gone from my phone, and I backed them up on iCloud? when I restored it, no camera roll pictures?

    Try restoring the backup again.  Sometimes it's successful the second time.  You could also try restoring an older backup.  iCloud will have your last 3 backups is you have sufficient storage space in your account.
