Can a photo appear in a few albums/projects ???

when i try to set up an album,lets say 'summer 2010' and then i want a separate album,lets say 'best shots of 2010' i would like some of the shots from summer to also appear in this best of album but each time i do this each shot will only appear in one or the other album.
sorry not explained very well !

Yes.
The actual master images are stored within projects. Your albums normally would be associated with a project. The album contains pointers back to the master image and all the adjustments you applied to the master image in that album. You could have albums for your normal adjustments and perhaps another album to highlight something in particular and another album for your monochrome adjustments, all pointing back to the original master in the project.
When you import directly to an album as I tend to do (rather than the project that seems to be a default for Aperture 3), the physical masters are still stored in that project, and I view my versions in the new album. After that I can create an album of the highest rated pictures (or a smart album if you like) without the masters moving or any significant disk space being used to copy a file from project to album or album to album.
Now if you wanted to rate some pictures as five stars and have those show up in an album, you could create a smart album to do that easily. But then you would need another smart album so the five star pictures were excluded from the original album. Sounds like unnecessary work but I suppose you have your reasons...
Or if you make a real album (not a smart album) for the five star pictures, you can delete the versions in the original album and they won’t appear there anymore. Of course all the masters are safe in the project, and won’t be deleted when the version in the album is deleted. Post if still unclear...

Why does the same photo appear in every iphoto album?

Why does the same photo appear in every album? Clicking on it makes other pictures appear?

Backup your iPhoto library, depress and hold the option an command keys, launch iPhoto and from the resulting first aid window rebuild your thumbnails. This may take several trys
If it does not fix the issue then repeat and rebuild your database

Since I updated to iOS 4.2. I can't see the pictures of the albums

I've got an iPod touch. When I select the option "albums", and I can see the list with all my albums, no problem, I can see the covers. But, if I select one of them, before, I used to be able to see the cover of the album on the top left corner, with the tracklist below, and the information of the album above. Since I updated to 4.2. covers won't appear on that screen.
Anybody's got the same problem? Any solutions?
Thanks!

You're not alone! I have the same problem with mine too, ever since updating to 4.2. The artwork appears for a few albums, but for majority of my albums it doesn't.
I just went through my iTunes and had it sort my songs by date added. Anything that I had added since 6/22/10 the artwork appears fine; everything before that is missing. I looked up the release dates of all the OS's for iPod touch, and sure enough iOS 4.0 was released 6/21/10. So basically all artwork pre-4.0 is missing.
Pretty weird, hopefully Apple resolves this and some of the other issues with 4.2.

How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name, and no trash can icon appears below most of the pictures the computer just put on my new iPhone 4.

How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone 4? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name when I press "Edit," and no trash can icon for me to click appears below most of the individual photos in the albums the computer just loaded on my new iPhone 4. When I synced the new phone the computer added these photo albums without permission from me. They are now taking up about 3 GB of memory on my phone. I would like very much to get rid of these photos from the phone. How do I do this?

To delete photos from your device
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply.

In the last 36 hours my photos have jumbled within various albums. Random photos have attached at the end of an unrelated album, old photos have appeared again on Recently Added, some photos are missing but still on "collections". No date order

Within the last 36 hours my photo albums have turned into a real jumbled mess. Random photos have appeared at the bottom of my Recently Added album. In most cases it's a copy of a photo that was taken months or years ago so now it appears twice.. 200 random photos have appeared in an unrelated album. Some photos are missing completely. The date order is correct in some places and then it goes back and forth over the months and years. The "collections" appears to be okay. This morning when I went into the photo app About 50 photos that were permanently deleted 3 months ago reappeared on the Recently Added Album which I deleted again. if I delete these irreplaceable photos from the unwanted album it will delete the photo completely. Help please - this is so annoying and frustrating. I hate to think when I turn the iPad on tmoor row what else will have changed .

Quick Update:
I usually have my Mac laptop up with Messages running on it. As you know, it will receive the same messages you send/receive on your iPhone. I thought all my old photos would be there too, but they have all disappeared as well except for the last few.
Messages is supposed to archive all old photos to a directory called ~/Library/Messages/Attachments. On my mac, this was a 0 byte file that was created back in Jan 2014. As a result, none of the old photos got saved on my Messages app either. I looked at a Time Machine Backup and it has been the case since September (no earlier backups available). So, it's unclear how long this issue has been going on for my Messages app and how related it is to my iPhone problem.
In any case, if any of you use Messages, you may be able to recover your photos in that directory provided it didn't get trashed like mine did. I moved the file and created a new Attachments directory. Upon relaunch, Messages started properly storing new photos in there again.
Either there was a really terrible bug in the Apple software or something malicious has happened.
P.S. I'm running OS 10.9.5 Mavericks. There is a thread of people with this problem on Yosemite here:
No pictures are shown in Message om Mac
This seems like a pretty seriously terrible bug. I will be talking again to AppleCare on Wednesday and I hope they can escalate this.

Different photo appears when clicking on photo in album

I imported some photos into an album, original source was camera and photo stream. On many, but not all of the photos in the album, when I click on it (say Photo A) a DIFFERENT photo (photo B) appears. If a make the smallest edit to photo B then it appears correctly in the album. This is mystifying !!

Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window rebuild thumbnails - it might take a few times

Since upgrade no photos appear in iphoto list when trying to upload a pic to facebook. I can "share" on my own wall but not post a pic to a friend's wall.

No photos appear in the iphoto list when trying to upload a pic to facebook. I can "share" a photo on my own wall or add one to an album through iphoto directly. I cannot figure out how to post a pic to a friends wall.

Exactly how are you trying to do this and waht is the problem
The iPhoto facebook upload can only post to your account
If you are uploading using a browser your photos are accessed through the media browser in the lower left ahnd corner of the puload window under media ==> photos ==> iPhoto
Please describe what you are doing, what problem you are having and what version of iPhoto and of the OS you are using

Photos appear in screen saver but i can't find them!

I have my screesaver set to show photos from users/user/pictures. the only items in that folder are an empty photo booth folder and my iphoto library. after organizing my photos and events, pictures i'm not aware of are showing up in my screen saver. i've looked all over in iphoto and can't find them. 'edit smart album' is not selectable ( i assume i have no smart albums), and 'show hidden photos' is selected. where could they be?

In the screensaver, iphoto is not bolded - i cannot select it. It seems you are trying to help me isolate the folder to make sure that that is where the hidden photos are. I played around for awhile trying to select just the iphoto folders, but screensaver is not cooperating. My instinct is that the photos are hidden somewhere in iphoto, unless they are somehow in the photo booth folder that appears empty. Thanks for your help!

I loaded photos to my new iPad2 using iCloud. The photos went in all jumbled up. Now I can't delete them or delete the albums. How can I delete?

Well, typically one of the fixes that I would suggest is to try to delete the waiting icons. WIFi in a public places like McDonalds, Starbucks, B&N, etc. is not the greatest and I would avoid those places for downloading and updating apps. But I do realize that not everybody has access to Wifi in their homes.
These are all things that have worked at one time or another for other users. Hopefull one of them will work for you. Just ignore whatever does not apply or anything that you have already tried.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

I just want to organize my photos to albums and not appear anywhere else. Photos appear in Photos and no indication if they have been dealt with.

I want to load my photos onto my MacBook Pro, sort them into albums and not have them appear in other locations. If I go to Photos all of the photos in the computer seem to appear. I can't tell if they have been put in an Album or have been edited. Is there a simpler system that I can use.

iPhoto works similarly to iTunes. In iTunes, every track is in the Library and each playlist is a sub-set of the Library.
So, in iPhoto, every image is in the Library and each Album is a subset of the Library. So, your photos will always be visible in the Library and in any album you use them in. That - of course - means that any image can ne used in a multitude of albums, and use no extra disk space. So that shot of your son, daughter and their puppy can be in the Son album, Daughter album, Puppy Album and even a favourites album.
Photos and Events are simply two views of the Library - two doors to the same room as it were.
It's easy to find photos not in an Album - with a Smart Album:
File -> New Smart Album
Album -> is not -> any
and another will find Photos not editoed:
File -> New Smart Album
Photo -> is -> Edited.
As you edit a photo, or add it to an album, they will be dropped from the Smart Album.

I seem to have lost most of my 9000 photos when I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.3. iPhoto won't work now and says it needs an upgrade not available in the UK. Only a few of the 9000 photos appear on Photos! HELP?

Move the incompatible iPhoto version to the Trash, before you try to reinstall from the AppStore, but don't empty the Trash.
update as described here:
Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore Purchases tab with ⌘R, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.

I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album?

I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album? I was trying to move several albums onto a USB drive and it stated all other files exist at this location. They are pictures taken at different times and have the same number I guess.

In iPhoto albums may contain photos with the same file name - iPhoto handles that just fine
If you are exporting them to move somewhere else use the sequential file name feature of export to give each file a unique name

When I open an event, including flagged items, the photos appear one by one, not as thumbnails, so I can't export more than one phot at a time. How do I get iPhoto to show the thumbnails?

I've tried rebuilding the thumbnail database, but that hasn't helped.

What version of iPhoto and system are you running?
Try moving the Zoom slider at the bottom of the iPhoto window all the way to the left. Does that let more than one photo display in the window?

If you have emmptied the iPhoto trash then you're going to need a file recovery application like File Salvage

Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace
