Can I export an iPhoto album as thumbnails?

Let's say I have an iPhoto album of 200 jpeg pictures.  When I highlight the album in the left sidebar of the iPhoto page, all the pictures display as thumbnails. I want to remove the pictures from iPhoto and put them on a DVD or CD-R.  This is no problem, but the pictures are then displayed as generic jpeg icons with the cryptic digital camera picture designations such as IMG_0285.JPG.  This makes it extremely laborious finding a particular picture.  Is there any way that the pictures can be exported/saved/downloaded to a removable medium so that the thumbnails will be displayed instead of the jpeg icons?  Thanks.

I know what reboot means.  I just don't know what "see if you can the preference change to jump start"  means.
I tried to follow your instructions, but I must have done something wrong.  I got this icon with the Show Icon Preview turned on: 
And I got this with the Show Icon Preview turned off:
I had the options of saving the TextEdit document as a "Rich Text Format", "HTML", Word Format" or "Word XML Format".  I took the default one, the first one.  I saw no option to save as a ".txt" as you did.

  • I have finally figured out how to export an iphoto album so that I can maintain the proper order of the photos after burning the file. How do I keep each individual photo title and description after exporting and burning?

    I have finally figured out how to export an iphoto album so that I can maintain the proper order of the photos after burning the file. How do I keep each individual photo title and description after exporting and burning?  Presently after exporting and burning each photo is identified by the file name rather than each individual title description.  

    File name and Title are not the same thing.
    Filename is attached to the Jpeg file in the Finder.
    Title is attached to the photo within the Jpeg file - as is the description. These are written to the Exif and IPTC metadata on export.
    So: File -> Export. Kind: Jpeg or Tiff and Check the box at 'Title and Keywords'. This will write the Title, keywords and descriptions (though not explicitly stated) to the metadata. This can then be viewed in any app that understand this material.
    You can choose, if you wish, to also use the Title as a Filename - that's an option at File Name

  • How can I copy a iPhoto album onto a flashdrive along with the photo information?

    How can i copy an iPhoto album to a flashdrive along with photo information, in order to send it to a friend please?

    File -> Export. In the resulting dialogue you can choose to export the Original. Or, if you choose to export a Jpeg you can get the edited version. Check the boxes at 'Keywords and Descriptions' and 'Places Information' and you'll get the metadata, if that's what you mean by "photo information"

  • I set my iPhoto to save photos to a non-default location.  Now I can't find my iPhoto albums in iTunes, even when looking in my non-default location in the "Sync Photos from" menu.  How do I fix this?

    I set my iPhoto to save photos to a non-default location.  Now I can't find my iPhoto albums in iTunes, even when looking in my non-default location in the "Sync Photos from" menu.  How do I fix this?

    When you launch iPhoto with the option key depressed you'll get this window:
    Click to view full size
    All libraries on your hard drive (and on external drives) will be listed and the currently used library will be listed as (default).

  • How do I export an iPhoto album as a pdf?

    How do I export an iPhoto album as a pdf? When I am in the album and go to file --> export, I get each image from the album saved as a separate file. I want to save them all in one file.

    Select all of those photos in iPhoto and start a print process.  Select the print size as desired, 8 x 10 or letter size, select the paper size accordingly, and then use the PDF button to select Save as PDF.
    That will give you a multipage PDF file with one photo on each page.

    How can I combine several IPhoto albums?

    Select the photos in Album B and drag them onto Album A in the side pane that will put them in that album.  Do the same for Album B, and C, etc.

  • Can't export in iPhoto 2.0.1

    Help! I can't export my photos. I select them all, click on export and I get an error saying: "There is not enough disk space to complete that operation."
    I have 56 GB free and it'll only do a few at a time.
    Can anyone shed any light on this?

    Holy cow, I got the export to work -- I have no idea what I did or if this works for anyone, but retracing my steps....
    -I deleted all photos that were in the trash both in iPhoto and in the Finder
    -Just for the heck of it, I tried some of the other exporting options to see how they work. (I'm a relatively infrequent user of iPhoo, hence my still working with version 2.0.1) I exported a few photos to see how the quicktime slideshow works...then I exported for web viewing. Both worked fine. Then I exported the photos...fullsize images...original format...use filename...use extention....and it worked!
    It was almost as if doing the other exports somehow fixed the issue in the finder where I kept getting the duplicate photo message which forced me to try the drag and drop method which also didn't work (see above posts).
    One downside: The export does not preserve the original dates fo import from my camera....bummer....I really like the chronological way iPhoto lets me view my photos...without that, in my newly created "iPhoto export" folder I have to do lots of guessing as to when particular pictures were taken.
    Again, *your mileage may vary* -- I have no idea what (if any) effect the above had for me. But maybe this will help someone...somewhere.

  • HT3412 Can I order an iPhoto album from my iPad?

    Is it possible to make and then order a printed iPhoto album from my iPad like you can from a Mac?

    You should ask that question in the iPhoto for iOS forum.

  • Can't export from iphoto '11 to facebook with facebook exporter

    Help!
    I've been trying to export photos from iPhoto '11 (Version 9.2.1) without success.  I am running OS X (10.6.8).  This is the error message I keep seeing, no matter which way I attempt to make a connection (through the 'Accounts' window in Preferences, or through the 'Share' tab when I select a photo to export).
    Here are the following steps I have taken, without any success:
    Changed my Facebook password.
    Logged out of Facebook.
    Downloaded and installed the 'Facebook Exporter for iPhoto' plugin from Facebook; alhtough this is suspect, since here's the most recent comment from Facebook on this plugin:
    The home for the Facebook Exporter for iPhoto - athttp://developers.facebook.com /iphoto/ - is temporarily down, as we build out a new version of it. In the meantime, you can download the application from this profile page, using the button at the left. Happy photo sharing!

    Re-booted my Mac after installing the plugin.
    Verified that the plugin is actually on my hard drive.
    Searched Google and Apple Support for help, but here I am...
    I really don't like Facebook, so maybe this the final hint that I should just give it up...

    Use Apple mail - set in the iPhoto preferences

  • HELP! I can't see my iPhoto albums in iMovie. What can I do?

    iMovie doesn't show my iPhoto picture albums or photos anymore. In the past when I clicked the "camara" icon all of the iPhoto albums would load and I could then drag and drop my photosinto my movie. Now I can't even see my albums. All it reads is " iPhoto images loading" and nothing ever loads.  I have looked through the other forums and discussions which mention similar items & tried different things but nothing has worked. All of my software is up to date.

    I'm new to this whole ipod thing, and leaving messages. I coulnd't figure out how to post a new message, but i have a similar prioblem to this, but not exactly the same. basically, i loaded my photos form my computer to my ipod, but now i want to delete some, and i don't know how to do this, and i can't find where the photos section is in my i-tunes. I think i have the latest version of i-tunes because i literally only recieved my ipod last week.
    If someone can help me i'd really appreciate this, because apple help pages are not very useful
    my email address is [email protected]
    thnaks!!

  • Can't get my iPhoto albums to download the whole album.  Only syncing partial albums.  Anyone know a trick to get it all synced?

    Can't get my new iphone 4s to download my iphoto albums.  They are only downloading a few pictures in each.  Anyone know why?  Or how to get the whole file downloaded?

    What exactly is the material you have? What does item properties say about it? If it's too small you'll have to scale it up, but if you scale it up a lot it's going to get soft and pixely.

  • Applescript to export single iPhoto album

    I'm looking for a script that will allow me to export a single iPhoto album. I'd like to be able to automate it (eg. once daily). The name of the album never changes, but the content will.
    I've found a few starting points, but nothing I've been able to wrap my head around. Most seem to require an actual input as opposed to a defined album.
    Any help?
    yeti

    Depending of what you mean by “exporting an album”, the following script might do what you are asking for.
    set theDestinationFolder to POSIX file "/Users/user name/some folder" as alias
    tell application "iPhoto"
        set theImagePaths to image path of photos of album "My Super Awesome Album"
    end tell
    repeat with thisPath in theImagePaths
        set thisFile to POSIX file thisPath as alias
        tell application "Finder" to duplicate thisFile to theDestinationFolder with replacing
    end repeat

  • My imovie 09 can't see my  iphoto albums

    In imovie 09 when I click on the camera icon to see my iphoto albums just some of them appear.  In this case not the ones that I need.  I am using 10.6.7

    I know it's more than a year later since this question was posted, but I don't see the answer to resolve the issue. Is there an answer? I've done what you posted here and nothing happened. I'm using iMovie 9.0.9.
    I used iMovie 9.0.9 to make this and open in iMovie 9.0.9.
    I've also tried to open the file in quicktime and other applications to no avail.
    I finished the project and went to file/finalize project. It took about 30 minutes to render the file. Now the file ends in rcproject.
    Please help.

  • How can I export an entire album to my desktop so any user can access my photos?

    Is there an easy way to export photos from my iPhoto library so that other users can access them without needing a Mac or iPhoto?

    But if it's a big album, be sure to create a new folder on the desktop first, to export them into. Having hundreds of individual photos on your desktop will slow your computer to a crawl.
