Create smart album with ONLY some faces

Hi. I need some help here. I created a smart album and I want it to have photos where only my girlfriend and I appear. I put two conditions: Face-is-my_name, and Face-is-mygirlfriend'sname. The problem is that it creates the album but it also contains photos where we and someone else appears, not only the two of us. Is there any way I can get it done?
Thanks for your posts.

Yes, I said to meet ALL conditions, and my smart album is in fact just like you said, with photos that have both of us but also other people.
But I get it, the only way to exclude other people is specifically by name. I just wanted to know if there was another "more automatic" way. Thanks a lot LarryHN.

  • IPhoto 8.1.2 can you create a smart album with only one face

    I'm using iPhoto 8.1.2 and have about 23k photos in the library. I have identified 32 key faces, and would now like to create some smart albums that contain only the face or faces that I want and to exclude all the others.  S for example  a smart album that has only my son.
    I tried using the doesn't contain this face, but you can only have around 10 filters/critiria in a smart album.
    any suggestions are appriciated

    You can't really, because you can't exclude enough of the faces.
    I would keyword the preferred images as well, so finding the face and the keyword would find the pics of the person alone.

  • How to create a smart album with only one particular person in it

    I have 3 kids. S, O, and E.
    All my photos are tagged with keywords, one for each childs name. I would like to create smart albums for each of my kids that contain only photos of them in it ie. no photos that have other people in it like family photos or photos of all 3 kids.
    For example, album 'S' should only have pics of S in it, and exclude any pictures of 'S playing with O', or family photos where S is with mum and dad.
    The only way i know how is to use the 'does not contain' or 'is not' and exclude all other names. Is there an easier way to do this?

    You could add a keyword to group photos and then add a rule to exclude the group photos.

  • Smart Album with Only Favorite Pick of Stack Rather Than All Stack Picts

    I am trying to create a smart albums where i would have only my favorite pictures. most of my pictures are in stacks and when i create an album with my favorites, i get every pictures of the stacks rather than the favorites.
    do anyone knows a way to single out the favorite picture of the stack and have it in a (smart) album, without all the other pictures part of the same stack attached to it.
    thanks for your help

    Sorry, edited (one sentence was incomplete):
    ... for each album, you can define an album-specific stack pick which is different from the "overall" stack pic.
    Let's say you have a project "client 1" with a stack containing images A, B, C, D. Let's make B the stack pick.
    Now you can set up an album (or website, or book, or whatever) "client 1 my choice" and set image D to be the album pick. You can then set up another album "client 1 their choice" and set image C to be that album's album pick.
    If you then view the album "client 1 my choice" you'll see image D. If you view the album "client 1 their choice", you'll get to see image C. If you view the project "client 1" in which your stack is residing, you'll see image B.
    All this can be achieved without unstacking since the image (and stack) in the album is just a pointer to the original stack which resides in your project "client 1". I find this quite comfortable.

  • How do I make a smart album with ONLY pictures of a face with no one else?

    I'm not handy with logic so if this is simple, I apologize. I'm trying to make an album of pics of my girlfriend. So I do a smart album and it comes up with her pics. But what I WANT is only the photos where she's in them with no one else tagged. How do I do that?

    Do not think is is possible unless you add face is not every other face

  • I need a Smart Album that only contains photos with NO faces detected

    I've been fiddling with the smart album settings, and I can't seem to find a way to do this. iPhoto will miss detection on some faces, and I need a way to see ONLY the photos that iPhoto didn't find a face for.
    This is NOT the same as a smart album with an "unknown" face. This is a smart album that will show ALL photos with NO face detected at all.
    Is this possible?

    Boy, why can't we use Smart Folders as a criteria for creating another Smart Folder? This works in iTunes! You can use a Smart Playlist as a criteria for creating another Smart Playlist.
    Well, here is what you can do...
    Create a Smart Folder that gathers all of the identified Faces. Faces --> is not --> unnamed
    Then drag all those photos to a standard album titled Faces Named
    Next Create a Smart folder that gathers all of the unnamed Faces. Faces --> is --> unnamed
    Now drag all those photos to a standard album title Faces Unnamed.
    Finally, create a Smart Album with the following criteria...
    Album --> is not --> Faces Named
    Album --> is not --> Faces Unnamed
    That should gather every photo that iPhoto has determined that no faces exist.

  • Smart Album with Unnamed Faces

    Hi - I created a smart album containing all images with unnamed faces (using the "Face: is unnamed" filter), which I found useful for editing people's names. It had been working, but the folder now contains nothing even though I still have lots of images with unnamed faces. Tried deleting the old and creating a new smart album, quit and restarted Aperture a few times, and repaired the library, but still doesn't work. Any suggestions?
    Cheers,
    Peter O.

    Not perfect, but better than nothing...
    I created a Smart Album with a rule set that says "Must match All" and then five rules:
    Face does not include a
    Face does not include e
    Face does not include i
    Face does not include o
    Face does not include u
    The album includes all pics with unnamed faces, but also all pics with no faces (e.g., landscapes).  I then scan thru looking for faces I want to name.
    I also submitted a request to restore the real feature, as Terence recommended.

  • Creating smart album based on multiple albums

    Hi,
    I would like to create a smart album based on the ratings of the photo and based on more than 1 album. Is this possible? because when i do try to base the condition on more than 1 album, no photos in my smart album show up.
    Thank you.

    crouton800:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. No, that won't work A smart album can only search one album to display a specific rating photo in that album. That is, the criteria would be Album is A and rating is 5 star with the "all" selected.
    That's because the All or Any criteria prevent you from trying to find only the 5 star photos in Album A and B. If you use the "all" criteria you'll get no hits and if you use the "any" criteria you'll get all of the photos in both A and B.
    Also you can't have a smart folder, only a smart album.
    What you need is for the following criteria to be invoked:
    Album is A and rating is 5
    and
    Album is B and rating is 5
    and that can't be done with the present application.
    You can get around this limitation by assigning a unique keyword to every photo in Album A, B and future albums in that folder. Then do a a smart album with the criteria:
    Keyword is "xxxx"
    Rating is 5 star
    and have the "All" selected.

  • Is it possible to sync aperture smart albums with an iphone?

    What I have on my Air is a smart album with all photos taken with my iphone(s). I want to sync this back to my iphone, but when I sync through itunes only ~1/2 the photos do in fact sync. Not immediately obvious which are and which are not. Most annoying.
    I am sure that I am not the first with this problem. Does anyone have a solution? Possibly the chap who advised me not to allow iphone library to grow into the 1000s! .
    Thanks for any assist.

  • Creating Smart Albums problem

    I'm on pg 132 of Aperture 2 Pro training book. I'm stuck at #4 which states "The images matching the search criteria appear in the Browser." They don't for me. The HUD is set up for, Rating (checked) "is greater than or equal to" is selected and set at 5 star as per instructed. After completing and closing HUD as instructed, why are all the images in lesson 2 still showing in the browser instead of just the 5 star for this Smart Album? Maybe I'm missing the point but according to what they state as I repeated above this seems incorrect.
    So far I'm not too impressed with the way this book is written. On the same page of Creating Smart Albums, #2 states to rename the untitled Smart Album and then press Return. According to the book this would apply the name to the Query HUD, which it didn't. It wasn't until I finally pressed the Magnifying Icon that I could get it to register onto the Query HUD. They left that bit of info out. One of several over looked steps.
    Your help will be appreciated.
    John

    Hi Tony,
    The steps you suggested were previously done and yes the smart album was selected. Nothing would work until I clicked on an (x) in the right side of the "Full text search or Limited text search" field just to the right of "match." Once I hit that (x), it disappeared and every thing began to work as expected. Why the (x) was there while nothing appeared in that field is puzzling but I will probably figure it out as I proceed. I did click in that field once in my attempts. That must have froze the operation some how.
    Many thanks for your contribution. I'm sure you will be seeing more of me here as I plow through this not so well edited tutorial.

  • Trouble making a smart album with multiple search criteria

    Hello,
    I've been using Aperture 3 for a while now but never really created smart albums. Thought I'd give it a go this time around. My filter criteria are:
    a) Select all images that have a rating of 1 star AND
    b) Have a red colour label assigned to them.
    The Filter HUD has the following settings:
    a) Any/All pop up menu = All
    b) Source: Project
    c) Rating IS 1 star
    d) Colour Label IS Red
    The smart album adds images from the project that match the rating criteria even if they're not labelled "red". On the contrary, if unrated images that have a red label do not end up in the smart album (and correctly so, I must say).
    My ultimate objective is to create 2 smart albums based on rating AND label color - 1 star & red goes to the client as proprietary, whereas 1 star & green goes up on Flickr as public.
    Am I missing something? Please assist. 
    I look forward to a quick response.
    Warm regards,
    Faizan

    The color label rule is puzzling, and does behave exactly opposite to what you'd expect: It shows the set of labels that are allowed.
    You have to uncheck all labels you do not want ansd only keep the red label.
    The active labels have a grey border, the others none.
    Here is an example of an album with labelled images "red": Notice the grey border around the red button, and borders around the deselected buttons.
    Was that quick enough?
    Cheers

  • Smart Albums with Keywords

    I have a couple Smart Albums whose criteria include "keyword contains ...." One of these smart albums reveals the photos separated by the Event that contains them and the other shows the photos all together not separated at all. I'm not sure how I did this. So, two questions:
    1.) How can I toggle between the two view options described above?
    2.) How can I create a third viewing option that separates the photos by keyword? (I.e. A smart album with criteria to include any of multiple keywords and then presents the photos separated by their respective keywords)
    Thank you!

    "1.) How can I toggle between the two view options described above?
    View Menu -> Event Titles - Check and uncheck this as required."
    I found "Event Titles" but it is grayed out for some reason. It is grayed out when I am in Smart Albums, regular Albums and Events but not when I am in Photos. It seems that it should toggle for Smart Albums though, considering I have both Smart Albums that separate photos by events and Smart Albums that don't. I'm quite computer savvy, but this one has amazingly stumped me. What do you advise?
    Thank you!

  • All my photos on my phone are in 1 album. Is there a way to create new albums and move some pictures to them?

    All my photos on my phone are in one album. Is there a way to create new albums and move some of them?

    With photos transferred from your computer, you create the albums or folders on your computer.
    If you manually manage photo storage on your computer, create a parent folder that will store the named folders of photos you want transferred to your iPhone. Place the named folders of photos in this parent folder and select the parent folder under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync. The folders of photos inside of the parent folder on your computer's hard drive will be transferred to your iPhone as separate albums. To add an additional album of photos to your iPhone, place the folder of photos in the parent folder followed by a sync. To remove an album of photos from your iPhone, move the folder of photos outside of the parent folder followed by a sync.

  • Sync project, album or smart album with MobileMe gallery?

    Is there any way to sync a project, album or smart album with MobileMe gallery? It would be nice to have changes in one, reflect changes in the other. Thanks

    make sure your inspector is visible on the left hand side press i to toggle on and off. You will see folders and projects that you have made in there. You can simply right click on a folder or project and select New from selection > MobileMe Album this will send all pictures in that album up to your mobileme Cloud for viewing. You can also select just some of the pictures in your main View screen again right click on them and the same as above. If you put more pictures into that folder etc on the mac you will see again in the inspector a icon and the text MobileMe gallery, to the right hand side of the text you will see a icon that looks like a wireless symbol just click on it to re-sync. You can also re-sync by going to prefs in aperture clicking on Mobileme and then click on the tab Check for new photos this works both ways.
