Can I move an iPhoto book to another iPhoto library  (which contain the photo's used for the book)

I have imported a lot of photos from a travel from friends in my iPhoto library. I created and ordered a beautiful book for them, but I do want to get rid of all the photo;s from my library. So I have used iPhoto Library Manager to create a library for all these photos. Unfortunately it did not copy the book itself. So I still cannot delete all the photos from my main library.
Is there a way to copy the photo book (it was a lot of work) to the new library or save it in any other way so I can delete their photos from my main library?

no
Books are just databae entries and can not be moved independently - you can ony move the entire library - you can make a smaller library containing only the book for ease of moving and archiving - see Old Toad's Tutorial #9

  • I have a HDMI connected TV, the HDMI is used for the cable also, I need to use a splitter, but it will only select what is powered on.  How can I turn OFF the iTV via the remote?

    I just received my iTV and am just setting it up.  The Panasonic HDTV only has one HDML imput.  The Uvirse box has a HDML output as well as a optical output.  I am using an older Bose sound system which works very well.
    I purchaced a HDML splitter which will allow me to use both.  How do you turn OFF the iTV box when you are trying to watch the Cable?

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • HT5312 how do i just reset my security question answers if i dont have a back up  email can i just have it sent to the email i use for the account and why is the support showing me what to do but not leting me do im geting ****** off.

    how do i reset my security questions the support shows me how but wont let me why is this so difficult!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address on it - if you hadn't put one on your account (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use steps 1 to 7 half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • My iCloud is not yet verified, can I change the Apple ID used for the iCloud?

    Hello all,
    Recently I setup a new iPad, using 2 AppleIDs.  But accidentally I could not access to the ID used for iCloud, it was said wrong password.  I tried all ways to reset it but unsuccessful. No email is sent to rescue email which is the other email address for #2 Apple ID.
    Checking at the iCloud, it is said "Account not verified, check your email at <my email address> for instructions to verify this account" and all options on this iCloud window is unable to be accessed.  I accessed the email to verify the address but it still alerts the same (account not verified).
    To avoid problems in locking my iPad in future (if pass code typed wrongly many times), I now want to change iCloud ID.  Please help advise how I could do it.
    Thanks alot for your help.
    @nhihoang

    Did it work for you? I tried it, and the Restore to factory settings will allow you to chose a new iCloud ID, but if you then restore from a backup to get your data & settings back, it will revert back to the old iCloud ID.

  • Book Module Lightroom 4 -- can I use a color picker to pick a color from a photo to use as the backg

    I am trying to match a background color for a page in a Blurb book using the Lightroom 4 Book Module.  Is there any way I can use the color picker to pick a color from the photo to use as the color for the background and as the type color?  I see the color box for these situations, but the color picker only seems to work with the color array that pops up and doesn't go to the photo.  Any suggestions?  Am I overlooking something very obvious?

    It works for me.
    The usual Lightroom way: click the eyedropper onto the color palette first, then hold and drag to your photo to sample color.

  • I have downloaded pictures to iphoto from my Canon Rebel XTI.  I can not email or move any pictures that are vertical.  When I double click on the photo to enlarge it the screen fills with an exclamation mark.  I need to email these photos out.  HELP!

    I have downloaded pictures to iphoto from my Canon Rebel XTI.  I can not email or move any pictures that are vertical.  Also, if I double click on the photo to enlarge it, the screen flills with a big exclamation mark.  I need to email these photos out.  HELP!  Also if I do a slide show with the album, those pictures do not show up.

    This:
    if I double click on the photo to enlarge it, the screen flills with a big exclamation mark.
    is why you can't do this:
    I can not email or move any pictures that are vertical.
    It means that iPhoto can't find the photos.
    What version of iPhoto?

  • I cannot connect to Home Sharing on iTunes, so that I can send movies and TV shows to another computer.  The other "library" does not come up in the box on the upper right side of the iTunes screen.  I tried disconnecting each computer from Home Sharing.

    I cannot connet to Home Sharing on iTunes, so that I can send movies and TV shows to another computer.  I cannot find the name of the other computer in the "Library" box on the upper right side of the iTunes screen.  Do I need to have the other computer connected to the Cloud?

    Mkae sure you have enabled Home Sharing using the same AppleID on both computers.

  • I'm not really a computer guy.Just got a Kodak easy share camera. When I  import the photos, they go to the area with my name in a file with the date. How can I move them to iphoto, or even better, import them directly to iphoto??

    I'm not really a computer guy. I just got a Kodak"easy share" camera. When I import the photos they go to the section with my name in a folder. How do I get them from there to iphoto, or better yet, how can i import them directly to iphoto?? As stated, I'm not knowledgable,have an imac and need real rudimentary direction.

    in the iPhoto preferences be sure the action when camera is connected is open iPhoto
    What program are you using to import the photos?
    If they are in a folder you can drag that folder onto the iPhoto icon in the dock to import - our launch iPhoto and under the file menu import from that folder
    For real rudimentary directions try the iPhoto tutorials - and it would be a worthwhile investment of time to take the iphoto tutorials - http://www.apple.com/findouthow/photos/ - they are very helpful and will save you a lot of time and frustration. for the concepts - actual commands mya have shanged in some cases - and under the iPhoto help menu ==> iPhoto help - watch the videos there

  • How to change the Apple ID for iPhotos and iMovies(The first ID used in the mac book)?

    I found that every time when I want to update the iphotos and imovies and the native apps in the mac book it is needed to use the first apple id that used for the first time you turn on the mac book.
    Since that id is not used now and i want to change it, any body knows how to change it?
    And although my current admin id has changed, but still when updating iphotos the very first id is needed...

    Correct.  Apps are Tied to the Apple ID that Purchased them...
    From Here   http://support.apple.com/kb/HE37
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • How do you place the photo to be on the cover in iPhoto books?

    How do you place the photo to be on the cover in iPhoto books?  In try to make a book in iPhoto I find it impossible to choose a photo for the cover. I try to make a photo a key photo, i put it at the front of the selections, i give it the most stars but somehow another photo is selected and I can't change the selection.  Help.  Thank you. iPhoto 9.5.1

    You are welcome
    I hope your book will be great. Once you finish the book, make a preview and check it carefully, before uploading the book to Apple.
    Keep the preview for your records, until you receive the printed copy.

  • HT4927 I have just downloaded iPhoto from the app store. The photo library from my old laptop was backed up on an external hard drive and I retrieved the photos from there.  Now when I open the photos on my new Mac Book Pro, they are small - am I missing

    I have just downloaded iPhoto from the app store. The photo library from my old laptop was backed up on an external hard drive and I retrieved the photos from there.  Now when I open the photos on my new Mac Book Pro, they are small - am I missing something?
    I am using 10.8.2 Mountain Lion btw

    I dragged the Photo library icon from the backup drive on to iPhoto on the laptop
    That means you imported one Library to another.
    Never import one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
    So the reason you're seeing small photos is because you're seeing the iPhoto thumbnails from the back up library.
    So, what to do?
    Do you still have the back up? If so, trash this bunged up library and restore from the back up again. HOw to restore will depend entirely on how you made the back up, but no version of restoring includes importing the library.
