Can I arrange my photos in an album in a specific order?

PSE 9 on Windows 7.
I have an album with a number of images.
I'd like the images to be displayed/print in a specific order.
Is there some way I can manually rearrange them and get that order to stay with the album?
Thanks!

Yes. Select the album and change from date order to album order. You can drag thumbnails into any position and they will remain fixed in your chosen order.

    I can't delete some photos in my album by using the trash button. How do I delete these pictures?

  • Can I moved flagged photos into an album on the iPad?

    Hi there,
    While on holiday I used my iPad to backup photos from my camera and I used the flag system in iPhoto for iPad to mark which ones I wanted to share. The problem is I can't see a way of moving the flagged photos into an album so I wanted to find out if it is actually possible to do this on the iPad.
    Additional info:
    The photos were uploaded onto the iPad using the native Photos app and have been flagged in iPhoto
    The photos are also on my iCloud account
    Neither the flags nor editing applied to the photos have synced after iCloud has been updated on my Macbook
    Due to the above I am unable to create a Smart Album based on flagged photos on my Macbook
    In iPhoto for iPad I cannot see the filename so I am unable to discern which images to flag on my Macbook to utilise Smart Albums (I have a lot of very similar photos)
    Any help would be much appreciated as this is incredibly frustrating.

    There is not yet a simple solution to do what you want.  The new Photos.app in iOS 8 will bring a much better integration between iPad and Mac.
    I just don't understand the point of being able to flag, favourite or tag item on the iPad  if you can't organise them into folders or easily share them between Apple's own apps.
    iPhoto on the iPad is simply not yet as flexible as iPhoto on a Mac.    It is not meant for syncing libraries between Mac and iPad. You can share photos, but not albums. And the central sharing place with other apps on the iPad is the Camera Roll. To make photos valuable in other apps, share them to the Camera Roll.
    In iPhoto you cannot create albums like in the Photos.app. Only smart albums based on tags. If you add a tag "Flower" to some photos, you will automatically create an album "Flower". But again, these tags will not be transferred to your Mac by the Photo Stream, you will not see them in iPhoto on your mac.
    If you want to transfer the edited photos using the Photo Stream you have to add them to the Photo Stream after editing, and that requires to save them to the Camera Roll.
    You could use a shared Photo Stream, but that will reduce the size of the photos.  Or select the flag photos and sync them to your Mac using iTunes Photo Sharing.  http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/2.0/#blnkee26bc1f
    Save photos to your computer using iTunes
    Connect your iOS device to your computer.
    Tap a photo, album, event, web journal, or slideshow and tap > iTunes.
    Tap Selected, or change the photos you want to save (if you are saving a slideshow skip to step 4):
    Select different photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap one or more photos, and tap Next.
    Select a range of photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap Range, tap the first and last photos in the range, and tap Next.
    Select all the photos in an album or event: Tap All.
    In iTunes, click the button for your device and click Apps at the top of the window.
    Below File Sharing, select iPhoto (in Apps).
    Select the Shared Photos folder under iPhoto Documents.
    Click Save To and select the location on your computer where you want to save the items.
    To view your photos, go to the Finder and look in the location you selected above.
    I am using the iPad mainly to browse and show photos in slideshows, but not, to organise and tag them. That I will do on my Mac.

  • Why can't I delete photos from my album?

    I created an album today and am trying to sort through it by keyword to check that each photo is labeled correctly. I have been doing this by going to the search box below and choosing one keyword. However, iPhoto will not allow me to delete any photos from this album if I have any keyword selected in that search box. If anything is entered in the search box, and then I select photos and hit "delete", the following photo just gets highlighted, instead of the selected photo being deleted. How can I select all the photos in an album that have a particular keyword, then delete them from the album?
    Also, earlier I clicked a box that said "do not confirm before deleting", when I was deleting several photos from this album. Now I'd like that confirmation box to reappear. How do I get that back?
    Thanks for your help!

    Here's an example :
    - Say I have a group of photos flagged. I navigate to the "flagged" smart album. I then click open the "info" pane on the right. I see that a picture of my husband and son is wrongly keyworded "cousins". I click on the picture, then on the keyword "cousins". I hit delete and tab. "cousins" reappears. I try deleting "cousins" and hitting "tab" instead. The deleted keyword reappears again. I delete it about three more times before "cousins" finally disappears for good. Then I add the keywords "brett" and "noah" and click off the picture. Select the photo again, only see the keyword "brett" - no "noah". Yes, I could hit command-K and open the keyword menu, but that's an extra step that I shouldn't have to take, seeing as keywords are available in the info pane. I simply can't figure out what they are wanting me to do in order just to simply delete a keyword using the "info" pane. Is there a particular keystroke that makes a keyword addition/deletion "stick"? I have tried using tab, return, clicking off the keyword box, and no matter, those stinkers just keep undeleting themselves.
    Another example of incorrectly adding/subtracting keywords:
    - Again, in the "flagged" smart album, let's say I have clicked on the search box, and chosen to search for all photos with the keyword "san francisco". Now I look in those photos for ones of my husband. I highlight only those particular photos (by holding down 'command') and then using the info pane, type in the keyword "brett". Instead of adding "brett" to the selected photos within the keyword "san francisco", "brett" is added to ALL the photos with the "san fran" keyword.
    - Same scenario, only this time I want to delete a keyword from selected photos in the "san fran" group - but it gets deleted from ALL the "san fran" keyworded photos.
    I can get around this problem by adding photos, such as the "san fran" keyworded group, to a regular album, and then adjusting keywords, and the problem doesn't seem to repeat itself. To me this seems like an unnecessary step, but it does work. Anyways, within the flagged album, and I would assume within other smart albums as well (though I haven't tested this theory), I am having trouble with iPhoto adding/subtracting keywords as described above.
    Seriously, thank you again for taking the time to help me out here!
    P.S. I have deleted the preferences file 3-4 times already, and that doesn't seem to have any effect on these particular issues.

  • Can't drag & drop photos within an album in iPhoto6

    I can't change the order of photos in an album by dragging. Looking at the other posts, I've fixed the Helvetica bug several times (by re-activating the font in Fonts Book) but it still doesn't work. When trying to drag, the photo will migrate to a strange place within the album, or not at all. Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for your replies, TD. They are ordinary albums. I haven't made any smart albums yet. It's strange, sometimes when I'm trying to relocate a photo I'll see the cursor flash in another place on the page and the photo will migrate there. Sometimes there are no cursors at all.

  • How can I edit ALL photos in an album at once instead of one at a time?

    I have approximately 300 new photos in an album and would like to rename all of them 'Rome Vacation'.  Is there a way to change all of the titles at once, or do I have to change them one at a time?
    Thanks,

  • IPhoto11 can't rearrange my photos in an album

    Just upgraded to iLife11. No big deal. But, in iPhoto when I put photos in to an Album, I'm not able to re-arrange them in to the order of my preference. The function isn't working. Any thoughts?

    Delete the Delete iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.

  • How can I arrange 6 photos onto one 6x4 print in iPhoto?

    I am trying to arrange 6 cropped square photos onto one 6x4 size photo so that I can print them.  I am using iPhoto 11 but I can't figure out if I can do this.  Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Select the 6 photos you want to print and type Command+P.  In the print window select paper size as 4x6 borderless and click on the Custom print size.  Start with a custom print size of 1.5 x 1.5. That will give you this:
    You can up the custom size a little bit at a time till you get the largest 6 photos on that one page.

  • How can I erase all photos in one album at once.

    Over the years 25.000+ photos are on my Mac filling up the hard drive.
    I want to store a big number on my server, but keep some on the Mac. So I made Albums with assorted pics that I want to store in the server in groups to find them back. I export the Album, no problem. But now I want to delete them in iPhoto. In order to do that, it looks like I have to click again on every single photo in the mediathek. I cannot erase the whole album. What is that. One has to get bigger and bigger Hard drives only to keep the 1000s of foots that get collected or spend days of finding them in the whole collection.
    Please help

    In order to do that, it looks like I have to click again on every single photo in the mediathek.
    Well let's reassure you about that. Just like everywhere on your Mac:
    Click to select
    Command-click to add to the selection
    If the items are contiguous then click on the first and the hold the shift key and click on the last. All the items between will be selected.
    Command-a will select all the items in a folder or Event or Album.
    And, of course, drawing the cursor across items will select them too.
    I cannot erase the whole album
    Well you don't erase albums, you move their contents to the trash. In iPhoto: alt-command-delete will move all the selected items to the trash. Then empty the trash. Then, if you're using iPhoto 11, empty the system trash.
    What is that. One has to get bigger and bigger Hard drives only to keep the 1000s of foots that get collected or spend days of finding them in the whole collection
    Or learn how to use the app.

  • How can I move a photo from one Album to another?

    I can touch the pic and it offers me to copy it, but how do I paste it into another album?

    You can't move pictures between albums on the iPad. You must do this on the computer that you sync the albums from.

  • Jewel Case Inserts - can I have a photo instead of album artwork?

    When making a jewel case insert for a playlist (using iTunes program) - is there a way to put one of my iPhoto photographs on the cover, rather than album artwork?
    This cover is for an iDVD movie. I'd like a photo on the front cover rather than an album cover.
    Thanks!

    hmmm. When I click on the playlist, the option to "Get information" doesn't come up. I selected one of the songs in the playlist, did get information and was able to select one of my photos as the artwork for it. But, when I view the cover, if I do a single cover it selects a different song cover (not sure how it picks the one).
    Will I need to delete the artwork from all the songs in the playlist except for the one with my photo in it, to get it to work?
    Thank you :- ) for your help.

  • Why can't I delete photos in iPhoto album?

    I have been happily deleting unwanted photos but now find that iPhoto will no longer allow me to do that.  I have tried rebooting to no avail. And no, i haven't had any recent updates or made any changes myself. Help!

    after trying all the various proposals in the other threads (rebuild library, change permissions, change ACLs, use Onyx to run all scripts, log in with different users with new library), i found my solution, mentioned in another thread
    TURN OFF Little Snitch
    so that iPhoto can connect to configuration.apple.com, get all my personal information, etc., and then all is fine. Finally, it is possible to delete photos again. You can turn on the iPhoto rule in Little Snitch again after it has connected once.
    cheers

  • How can I make a smart playlist sort album by artist in order of size?

    I'm trying to figure out a way to make a playlist of songs I generally like from a very large library to fit on my iPod. The songs aren't rated, and I don't want to have a totally random selection chosen by a smart playlist.
    I thought a good way to pare down the list would be to sort album by artist, and then filter that list in order of the size that each artist takes up. It's more important to get rid of an artist that I don't like that also hogs a lot of space than one that maybe only has one track. I figure if I could scan down the list and exclude the worst offenders, it conceivably would make the task much simpler.

    I'm trying to figure out a way to make a playlist of songs I generally like from a very large library to fit on my iPod. The songs aren't rated, and I don't want to have a totally random selection chosen by a smart playlist.
    I usually make two playlists.
    One playlist with favorites I do want on the iPod and another smart playlist to fill the rest of the iPod. Just limit the size to th esize of the iPod minus wthe size of my iPod selection playlist.
