Create an event in Photos.app

How can I create an event in the new Photos.app
The only way I found was to create a new Album with my imported photos from my Hard-Drive and than, give it the name of the event I wish.
This procedure is very long and not easy to do. With iPhoto I just put the folder (with the name of the event and containing my photos) over the iPhoto.app icon and that all I had to do. I get my event with the photos and everything was well organized. New it's a **** of a job !!
Anybody has a better way to create an event?
Thank you for your help.

The Events in the Photos sidebar are just Albums created from those events when the conversion to Photos was made.  You can create new albums by selecting the photos and using the File ➙ New Album menu option:
The new album will appear just above the Flagged smart album.  It can be moved into the folder titled iPhoto Events if you want or wherever else under Album you'd like to have it.

  • Erase images and events in Photo app

    I cannot erase numerous events in Photo app. Firstly my photos have organised themselves into 30 - 40 events with 3 or 4 photos in each event. This was not how they were imported. Some corruption has occurred. More importantly I cannot erase them. If I set photos in iTunes to sync with nothing, these 30 - 40 events will not disappear. Any suggestions to erase all photos in the ipad Photo app?
    Thanks

    but just doesn't have the features when I have spent hours tagging, editing and sorting all my photos in iPhoto on my iPad and  desktop.
    You cannot add tags and captions in Photos iOS 8, and you cannot see them when opening a photo. But the tags you added previously are still there when you migrate the iPhoto library to Photos. You will see that, when you use the search field and enter one of your tags or a caption. This will find all photos with this tagged you then can create an album of all tagged photos for each tag. Creating albums with distinctive names is the new way of tagging. You can search for album names.
    I share your sentiments entirely, and I hope Apple will provide an update to Photos soon or offer app extensions to add the missing features.

  • Creating Albums in the Photo App

    How do I create albums in the photo app on my iPad if I don't have a Mac or pc to sync to?

    With iOS 5+ you should get an Edit button at the top of the Albums screen in the Photos app which lets you create new albums, and you can then copy your photos into those new albums - the photos are only copied or pointed to by those new albums, so if you delete the original photo on your iPad then it is also deleted from all albums that you've copied it into.

  • Can I create an event in Photos

    I am using the Beta Photos.  Can I create new events using Photos?  If not, is there an equivalent?    All the events I had in IPhoto are there but I have not been able to create a new event.

  • Problems with events in Photo app on upgrading to iOS8

    Yes we understood that iPhoto & Aperture were to be discontinued on the desktop OS sometime in the future but it was a shock to find without warning when upgrading to iOS 8 that iPhoto would not work. Why didn't Apple tell us this!
    The new version of iOS 8 Photos app. is better then the previous but just doesn't have the features when I have spent hours tagging, editing and sorting all my photos in iPhoto on my iPad and  desktop.
    On migrating to iOS8 all my photos transferred fine but the Events are now in a random order in the Photos app on my iPad rather then in the date created order as is the norm and is reflected in iPhoto on the desktop. They appeared in the correct order in the Photo app before the update. I cannot seem to change that, so I am unable to easily find the photos I wish to view by scrolling through the Events. Has anyone any suggestions of how to sort this? Removing photos and re-syncing them did not help neither has a complete update, restore and re-sync!
    Even trying to find a photo using the new improved search function does not help me find the photos. Even though I give each Event a name "Lisa's Wedding" etc. the search function in the Photos app in iOS 8 fails to find events or most keywords which I had hoped it would. From what I have seen so far the search finds titles of individual photos, albums and geo tags, however even the geo tags seem to be named differently to what show up in iPhoto on the desktop.
    Presently I have had to downgrade to iOS 7.1.2 so that I can carry on working the way that I did as do need to work!
    I have raised a complaint with apple regarding the dumping of the iPhoto now and a bug report regarding the ordering of Events on the Photos app. (I seemed to recall that happened with a very early version of the Photos app.) However if anyone has any suggestions of work arounds or if I am just missing something, then all and any advice would be very welcome.
    Thank you

  • Create New Event Flagged Photos

    I flag a bunch of photos. Then select the menu item "Create New Event from flagged photos". And nothing happens. Is it not supose to ask me for an event name and then put the flagged photos into that event? Thanks

    It's just supposed to put the pics into a new Event, it doesn't ask for a name.
    Are you sure you don't have an 'Untitled Event'?

  • Key photos on events in photo app?

    Since I've updated to iOS 5 I've noticed that the main photos for my events are just the first photo in the event, and not the photo that I have selected as the key photo in iPhoto. It's small, but it's annoying. Does anyone know a way around this? Thanks!

  • 8.1 did not sort the sort order for events in photos app

    With 7000 photos in more than 300 events You must have them in alphabetic order as before in 7.1 The pictures are synced from iMac iPhoto. How to do a search. The events are not found by names

    When I drag albums into the correct order in Photos for Mac, they show up in reverse order on the iOS devices. Thus there seems to be a bug in either iOS 8.3, OS 10.10.3 or iCloud Photo Library.
    The browser version of iCloud Photo Library (icloud.com) is currently updating. I am waiting to see which way my albums are sorted there.
    There is no promise at all, or documented anywhere, how sorting of library items will sync across the devices. This has been haphazard when syncing iPhoto Libraries - synced faces not sorted, synced events  not sorted, etc. So it is at least a step in the right direction, in Photos that the albums are sorted at all.

  • Is there a way to create new events on the new iPhoto app?

    Is there a way to create new events on the new iPhoto app?  I seem to only be able to create albums.  I would really like the app to allow me to do all the same things that I was able to do on my Mac.  I would create events and then sync to all devices.  Can someone please instruct me on how to create new events from the photos imported from the photo stream.
    Thanks for all the help!

    The iPhoto for iOS seems to be aimed at working on photos then sharing them to social media sites or to iCloud for sharing there. iPhoto for iOS does not perform many of the organizing tasks that iPhoto on your Mac does. Many people expected that there would be more capabilities in iPhoto for iOS that would allow it to work more closely with iPhoto on your computer but this is not the case. They are separate apps.

  • How do I create titles for albums in Photo app?

    When someone sends me photos in an email and I download them to my ipad2 they automatically appear in the native Photo App. When I tap Album they are grouped together with the title “Camera Roll” whatever that means. My question is: How to I change the title “Camera Roll” to a title of my choosing? I know how to do this in iPhoto on my MacBook Pro where most of my photos are grouped in “events” but have no idea how to do this on my ipad. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    Photos that are emailed to you and saved to your iPad are automatically saved to the Camera Roll. You can not title the photos or albums on the iPad without using a third party app. The photo captioning ability is not built into the iOS. You can search the apps store but one app that I know of is called Photo-Sort for iPad. You can also organize and create folders for your photos with this app.

  • IPhoto Events with video only not showing in Photos.app  with iOS 4.2.1

    I upgraded to iOS 4.2.1 on iPhone 3GS and when I open the Photos.app the videos and the event with the videos in do not show. I have created a new video on the iphone, synched ok with IPhoto but re-sycnhing with iPhone again does not show videos in Photos.app
    Has anyone found a fix for this bug?

    The same thing happened to me. I was on a mission yesterday to fix it, but didn't get it to work. I have 1 more thing i want to try... but haven't had a chance.
    Has anyone fixed this?
    My plan is to unsync photos to remove them from my phone, delete all the photo cache information from the iPhoto Library package, empty the trash, reboot my computer AND iPhone, open iPhoto to make sure they're sorted correctly, and then sync my phone. If that doesn't fix it... i dont know, i might call Apple.

  • Is there a way to create a password protected folder for pictures or lock the photos app? For Ipad Air and Iphone 5s.

    Use 3rd party apps like Photo Manager Pro.

  • How can I import into iPhoto, from my iPad, albums created on the iPad using Photos App ?

    I take about 300 photos a day using my iPad, as i'm filming to help keep continuity.
    I then create albums under the scene number from some of the photos taken. Eventually i will build up all of the scene numbers in the script.
    I want to import into iPhoto all of these albums.
    How can this be done?
    For some reason, when i plug my iPad into the laptop, it won't import screen grabs or all of the photos.
    So the fact i have tried to be super organised, the apple software is now letting me down !
    Can albums created in the iPad now be imported into iPhoto as albums to keep my organisation ?
    Thanks.

    That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
    With the new Photo app later this year the integration between IOS and the Mac will be much greater

  • IOS 8 Photos App - Events Album Sort Order is Screwed

    Hi,
    When I sync my photos (that are grouped into Events) from my Mac iPhoto Library, to my iPhone and view them in the iOS 8 Photos App, all the events are no longer sorted in order - they used to be sorted chronologically in 7.1.
    To try and find the event photos that you are looking for is now impossible.
    Does any one known how to fix this or is it a regression bug that they have introduced with iOS 8?
    Rgds
    Gary

    This is such a cluster-f*ck.  I was stunned when I found the change to iOS 8 brought this mixed up order of my events from my iMac's iPhoto.  Having them in Events by month/year was the only way I could keep a reasonable handle on where everything is.  This is completely unacceptable from Apple.
    Then again, it seems from what I read around the Internet, those of us using iPhoto as our managing software AND using it to sync pics to our i-devices are a clear and dwindling minority.  Maybe Apple just didn't think it important enough to bother, but they need to fix this. 
    What would have been completely helpful and awesome with iOS 8 would be the importing of keywords (and descriptions, but at least keywords) for those of us syncing from iPhoto.  I can understand why Apple wouldn't have done so years ago (memory onboard our i-devices), but today there's no reason for this.  Those tiny, tiny bits of data should come over with the photos to make them searchable by keyword.  I'd care less about the Events being out of order if I could search by keyword on my iPhone or iPad. 
    Come on Apple... we have enough storage space to make this happen.
