Captioning photos -- not possible???

Am I missing something obvious or is there no way to add a caption to photos using iPhoto? I'm not looking to make a caption on a print, simply embed a caption in the file itself (as is possible with just about every other photo manager program).
Can anyone point out what I am missing?

Hello there. Along this subject line, I have added descriptions to all of my photos in iPhoto. When I upload the album to Picasa Web Albums, the description show up under each picture, which is really slick. However, when I upload the album to MobileMe, I only see the option of showing or not showing the title name. I don't see any way to make the descriptions show up. I tried to rename the title to the description in iPhoto using Batch Change but that was not one of the fields you could set the title to.
Is there any way to display captions/descriptions in a MobileMe photo gallery?

Import photo not possible

I want to import the picture from my camera, and when I click Import, it tells me "The format of the picture is not recognized....it is JPEG format. It is the first time that I get this message. Before importing was easy. So, I have imported the pictures into Picasa, and everything was OK. What do I have to do?
Thanks

It may be a corrupted memory card. Launch Image Capture (located in the Applications folder) and upload the file to the Desktop and import it from there. If that doesn't work open the file in Preview (if you can) and do a Save As, selecting jpg, max quality AND a new file name. See if the new file will import OK.
Once you get the file imported successfully into iPhoto go ahead and reformat the memory card USING the camera, take a test shot and try your normal import method.

Have you upgraded to iPhoto 9.6 for compatibility with Yosemite? If not, try that first.
It looks like iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails and the original image files.
This can be caused by a corrupted iPhoto library, or the originals have been deleted or moved.
Try first to rebuild your iPhoto Library:
If you do not have a current backup of the iPhoto library, make a copy of the library, but do not overwrite any previous backup.
Launch iPhoto with the ⌥⌘-key combination (option-command) held down.
Select "rebuild" from the first aid panel. This may take a while for a large library.
Can you now see your photos again?
If not, rebuild the library with iPhoto Library manager as described by Old Toad: Re: iphoto crashed

When Lightroom greys out a photo in the Import dialog box, it means the photo is already in the catalog. It doesn't mean that it is matched with an older photo with the same name ... in order for there to be a match, the file name and capture date and file size must be identical.
So Lightroom thinks you have already imported the photos, and you think the photos have not been imported. Now I'm sure you are a very nice person, but I believe Lightroom. What you need to do is to find the photos in your Library Module and use them there. The photos can be found by searching for them by file name, after turning off all filters, and after clicking on All PHotographs in the Library Module.

When I recaption a photo in IPhoto and transfer to Photo Stream the caption is not transferred and only the original photo ID shows in Photo Stream. Can you transfer a recaptioned description to Photo Stream?

When I recaption a photo in IPhoto and then transfer to Photo Stream, the new caption is not transferred and the original Photo ID shows. Is there any way to have the new caption show up in Photo Stream with a transferred photo?

No. Recaptioning only add a title to a photo and does not change the actual file name. You could export the photo outside of iPhoto with the option to use the title as the new file name, reimport into iPhoto and then add to PhotoStream. But that may be more of a hassle than you wnat to go thru.

I want to start with audio on a timeline and add photos. Why is this not possible in the new confusing version of iMovie?

Yrs,

Yes, you can do this. Drag the music track to the background and start adding your pictures. A great way to do this is to use beat markers so your photos will change on the beat.
A really fast way to do this is to line up your photos in an iPhoto album in the order you want them. You can drag the whole album into iMovie at once.
Here is a tutorial on the beat marker feature.
Here is a sample of a slideshow made by dragging in the music first, adding beat markers, and then adding photos.

Ah, you had Photoshop 7.0 working, and now it's not. I see that as a separate issue to updating it. I'm not sure why it would ask you to update it.
Do you know whether you have 7.0 or 7.0.1 at this point? You might be able to do a Properties function on Photoshp.exe and see that info.
You could make an attempt to reset Photoshop's preferences to defaults. Press and hold Control - Shift - Alt simultaneously immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be really quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your current preferences, which will lead to the establishment of a fresh default set. If it does not prompt you, you haven't been quick enough to get the keys down.
Only other thing that comes to mind is to use Windows System Restore to restore back to a restore point where Photoshop was working, or restore from a backup (you do make backups I hope).
If that fails, and you need to do a fresh install but no longer have the original disk and serial number I'm afraid you may be out of luck. There's no place I know of from which to download a fresh full copy of Photoshop 7.0.

Why it is not possible to attache documents or photos to mail ??

Why it is not possible to attache documents/photos/mp3s to mails?it is very much inconvenient!!!

Why would you send an mp3 via email in the first place?
The iPhone allows you to attach a single picture to an email. In addition to pictures that you take with your phone's camera, you can also send images that you have synced with iTunes or saved from your iPhone's Safari browser. When you attach a picture, the Mail application allows you to optimize your picture's file size before sending it.
Step 1
Tap "Photos" on the Home screen and tap "Camera Roll" under "Albums."
Step 2
Tap the photo that you want to attach to an email and tap the "Options" icon on the bottom left corner of the screen. Select "Email Photo" and enter the recipient's email address next to "To." Type any additional information in your email's body, if necessary.
Step 3
Tap "Send" and choose the file quality that you want to use for the picture.
Researching something before purchasing is always a smart step to consumerism. If you dont see the feature, than compromise and use a 3rd party app. with millions of apps available I'm sure you can google it to find something to attach documents.

Published photos and captions do not match photos (correct on iWeb)

I recently added more pictures on a couple of photopages and place in a certain order. It displaced all the photos and the captions accordingly. After Publishing the captions did not match the photos and seemed to stay in the places where they were previously published. I tried to retype each caption that was incorrect then saved then republish, however some were corrected but most were not. If you click on a incorrect picture and see the full pic, it opens with the correct caption/name on the window. I also added some new captions to certain photos without captions or changed some captions and some show and some do not. Anyone have any ideas. Thank you.

Welcome to the discussion Ju
The first thing that springs to mind is caching, if you are using Safari:
go to Safari > Empty Cache..
Then try the page again, you can also put a ? at the end of the address and refresh the page. Sometimes its a combination of both that fixes it, and sometimes it seems that the .mac servers cache everything and dont serve up the fully refreshed pages!

HT204390 Before the recent iOS 7 update I could get closed captioning on amazon prime movies, now it's not possible even the ones that have CC available .. I've turned in on in setting on my iPad mini but it doesn't work. Netflix is no problem.

Try this - Reset 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

Iphone 6 -- iOS 8.1.3 -- screen constantly freezing, Apps instantly crashing, Photos not deleting, iMessages disappearing, iCloud not reflecting correct backups

Ever since downloading iOS 8.1.3 on my iPhone 6, I've been experiencing quite a few issues (I am assuming all are related to the update, but not sure)
I apologize in advance for the lengthy post! Here goes:
     • Screen constantly freezes--sometimes it freezes on the home screen (no apps open), other times when I am in Settings, Photos or any of my downloaded apps. Each time this happens I have to restart the phone by holding the home and lock buttons in order to unfreeze the screen...this happens approximately 4-5x per day.
     • All of my apps either freeze or crash upon opening, and my Mail app either refuses to stay open or it will show an empty inbox with 'no mail' --even though my email has always been synced to the phone.
     • I am not receiving a lot of iMessages or incoming calls to my iPhone, but most of the missing iMessages will appear on my MacBook Pro. And when I do receive iMessages normally, entire portions of certain conversations--both sent & received--keep disappearing (whether my iphone is on all day or if I have to restart it). *the convo that has gone MIA on my iPhone will still appear on the other persons phone.
     • When I open Messages or Recent Call logs, the contact names do not appear..only 10-digit phone numbers. (Even though all of the #s are saved by name in Contacts).*This has only happened a few times so far.*
     • Furthermore--and most frustrating!--my camera and photos are practically inaccessible. Almost every time I open 'Photos', the app crashes.. I have no available storage to use the camera so when I try to select photos and hit 'delete' the app crashes instead of deleting the photos.
     • I have considered performing a factory reset... however, my iCloud states I have 4.6gb available (w/ 5gb plan) even though my photos are turned on in iCloud, and should be taking up most of the 5gb storage space..they appear 'On,' but do not show up under 'Manage Storage'...the only apps/documents/data shown are WhatsApp and Mail so I am afraid to reset the phone as I have no idea if the photos are actually backed up or not.   (Screenshots are attached)
If anybody has been experiencing any of the same issues I would greatly appreciate your insight or advice for how to fix this! I'm hoping it is just a bug with the new iOS software and not an issue with my phone itself as it is only 3 months old.. Thank you in advance!

**Adding to the final photo in my original post... When I select the 'Kendall Anderson's...This iPhone' using 324.2MB, Photo Library is turned 'On', but has 'No Data'....I know this is not possible because my photos that were previously backed up used up ~3.5GB of storage.
Either I am doing something wrong here, or my iPhone just has a mind of its own with this new update!

HT1386 Why is not possible to sync just content like musice ONLY, when I have no time to wait on whole proces of synchronization, there SHOULD be a way to sync JUST MUSIC and nothing else, I dont wanna wait 10minutes to have 3 songs I want to have in my i

Dear Apple, why is not possible in the year 2014...sync to my iPhone just content I want to separety, without the whole sync procedur(backinup,syncing whole purchased things and stuff like that) When I want to have in my phone for example just 3 new songs ..I dont wanna wait 10minutes because of whole synchronization!!! I want add to my iPhone just these 3 songs thats it! Would be perfect, If you will make possible to sync just parts like MUSIC, Apps, Fotos, separetly and not alltime together...it s****!

Ok.
I have Windows OS and iTunes for PC, but the problem is not in my PC, but in synchronization. Your synchronization take minute or two, you have thunderbolt lightning cable??? If is it by you really so quick than ok but by me is it with sync really slow and I have still powerhouse notebook.
I dont know how is it possible that your sync is so quick, but my iPhone starts transfering purchased aplications and all content to the PC, instead of downloading it PC itself without iPhone from iStore. So there is what happend when I am conecting my iPhone.
When it find my iPhone on the first try, it starts makeing backup, than transfering photos, aplication, some info from Safari and to the end also the MUSIC...this should be improved by Apple and it should be able to sync just MUSIC section and not whole system, when I changed just something in MUSIC section(like adding new CD..)
So it does on PC whole resync Maybe is it somewhere in options, but where? I really want sync sometimes just MUSIC or just Apps and nothing else(like Photos, Bookmarks...)
I am sorry for that angry tone, but I am really stresedby this 20minutes sync or 10 miutes...just becouse of adding 1-2 songs, this is by competition phones quicklier :/ !

Captions are not shown in HTML

Dear experts,
In the web design captions are shown. However when I publish my designed pages to a map some of the captions do not show up when I open the HTML.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Andre

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Are these captions under photos on a photo page or the grid layout of an album page? Those are found in the rss.xml files for the page(s) involved.

Navigation of iPhoto and iTunes not possible by Remote Control

Navigation of iPhoto and iTunes not possible by Remote Control after upgrading from Leo to Mountain Lion. I miss this functionality because it was nice to see may photoes directly on the iMac-Screen as well to hear the Music on my Radio. No chance to implement this function again by a newer upgrade?

Answer to captfred and mende1:
I am using already AppleTV, but only for streaming into a different room on to my TV - it is great!
But I like to hear all my iTunes Music by LineOut Cable from iMac to my Stereo Device.
I can activate music titles in iTunes by Apple Remote, but only for jumping from Title to Title and not back to Albums or Playlists etc.
