Faces and Events in IOS iPhoto.

Is Faces missing from iphoto for IOS? Also does anyone know how to combine events in IOS iPhoto?

It's pretty clear that not all features of iPhoto on your Mac have been incorporated into iPhoto for iOS.

Syncing Faces and Events

So I'm using Photoshop elemnts to sync photos to my iPhone 3g by using the normal sync with itunes
I know I cant sync faces and Events when i sync folders in windows but I cant get it why apple dosnt add support to sync events and faces from photoshop elements
anyone know if support will be comming or if Apple will take a **** at pc users once more?

Your English is better than my French.
For the folders syncing with windows pc's Photo albums:
1) Create a master sync folder on your pc with no photo files at the root level of the folder.
2) Create sub-folders within the master sync folder with the subfolders named what you want the ipad's photo albums to be named.
3) Place the photo files you want to sync in the appropriate subfolder within the master sync folder.
4) In itunes on the photos tab, select the master folder as the sync folder.
5) After syncing, each subfolder will be an album on the ipad with the proper photos contained there-in.
For the Places; The ipad should display Places information for any photo with geotagging data. This is stored with the photo in the metadata. It is the Lat/Long of the photo. This info must be included on the photo file before syncing.
For the Events, I use separate folders within the master sync folder for each event. (see above).
I am not sure how Events and Faces works with PSE8 or if the method PSE8 uses is compatable with the ipad. iPhoto on a mac works for events and faces on the ipad, based on posts I have read here.

My ipad 2 photos has only 3 icons, i dont have faces and events icon? icon for faces, My ipad 2 photos has only 3 icons, i dont have faces and events icon? icon for faces

My ipad 2 photos has only 3 icons, i dont have faces and events icon, and how can i make an album.. Ive got 800 photos in one album..

I would add to King Penguin's comment and say that Places also only works with photos that are tagged with geographical information (knows as geotagging to us photographers). I've done this with my photos and it's really cool. You basically tap the Place tab in Photos and a map of the world is displayed with pins showing the areas of where the photos were taken. Touch on a pin and you get the photos associated with that area. Neat-o!

Losing Events, Places, Faces and other problems in iPhoto

Bought the new iMac in January; carefully transferred photos from old G4 and took ages updating the details using the great events/places/faces etc facility. Recently 2 things happened - I bought a new camera (Nikon D500); imported and updated event/place/face etc; all working fine. Days later got an upgrade iPhoto message - dutifully did so. Next time opened iPhoto got message to upgrade database - did so. I think there was a message reporting that this was necessary to secure the database; but I was not really concentrating on this merely assuming that my "new" software would not create any problems (how wrong could I have been?!)
RESULT?
- lost ALL place/face details;
- photos still grouped as Events folder but only with with the old camera date format.
- "Albums" directory with titles from old iPhoto version on G4 machine re-appeared!
- In Finder file-path from root Pictures>iPhoto>Library>[subdirectories by year etc] replaced by a single iPhotodatabase that can only be accessed by opening using iPhoto
- iPhoto created a "recovered photos" subfolder in "albums".
I also notice that the Browse facility used to attach photos in Mail is also rendered useless - clicking one photo fails to attach a photo; i can click and drag one photo into an e-mail; but this goes into the e-mail body rather than as an attached item.
Any suggestions that allow me to recover the information so painstakingly entered will be useful.
I notice a lot of comments suggesting problems with iPhoto 8.1.1 - but I cannot see anything on the site similar to my problem - is this something that Apple are aware of and working on?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Lets clear some things up first:
In Finder file-path from root Pictures>iPhoto>Library>subdirectories by year etc replaced by a single iPhotodatabase that can only be accessed by opening using iPhoto
This is normal. Since iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. (See below for details on how to access your files)
I also notice that the Browse facility used to attach photos in Mail is also rendered useless - clicking one photo fails to attach a photo; i can click and drag one photo into an e-mail; but this goes into the e-mail body rather than as an attached item.
This is normal. That's how Mail works with Photos in an Email. Altering that is a matter for Mail. Elect to send Plain Text Emails. Note that how the email looks on your Mac has very little bearing on how it will appear on the receivers machine. It's pretty much 100% dependent on the setting on their email client.
As to the missing Faces/Places etc. This sounds like a damaged database file:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
Failing that, restore from your back up.
As promised:
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and later:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
Note that iPhoto sends a copy+ of the file to Photoshop, so when you save be sure to use the Save command, not Save As... If you use Save As then you're creating a new file and iPhoto has no way of knowing about this new file. iPhoto is preserving your original anyway.

Faces and events not showing up in photos

when i open photos the only thing that will show up is albums and places. why?

First of all you need to have iPhoto '09 on your Mac. Secondly you have to have faces set up in iPhoto. Lastly if you have all of theses, then connect you iPhone to iTunes, when it opens go to the photo category, then check off the photos you'd like and then at the bottom it will show the names of people that are in the faces category in iPhoto and thats basically it and just sync your iPhone.

Import and edit on iOS iPhoto - dump on Mac

Hi all,
Is it possible to edit photos on an iPad, then transfer to a Mac/iPhoto and retain the original file and full resolution?
I've been experimenting with iPhoto on the iPhone but when I share to iTunes the photos are downsized.
Thanks.

The free app "Acrobat app" is the new release of the free Adobe Reader Mobile.
The app provides a connection via your internet connection (WiFi, Wired, Cell Data Plan, whatever) to several of Adobe's online subscription based services.
With the appropriate service it is possible to process PDFs of scanned images for OCR. The OCR output is "real" text and Reader's Comment / Markup tools can be used.
Be well...

Missing faces/places after event import from iPhoto to A3

Hello,
I am interested in switching from iPhoto 09 (8.1.1) to Aperture 3. I downloaded the Trial Version yesterday evening. I have a very big iPhoto library (28.000+ pictures) and I did not want to import all of them right now. I wanted just a few events in A3 to play around with it.
I imported 3 different events into A3 via File - Import - Show iPhoto Browser. I selected the 3 events and put them per drag & drop into project. The few pictures were imported really quickly but I have some problems afterwards.
1. All the pictures are missing the faces and places which I assigned them in iPhoto.
2. Except the pictures taken with the iPhone - they had the places assigned to them.
3. I do not have any issues with the keywords. They are all there.
First I though I made a mistake somewhere. So I tried this at my OneToOne at the Apple Store today. We did the same thing on their iMac and had the same issues. After importing an event we were missing the places and faces.
When I got home I created a new user on my MacBook and tried the same thing with that user account. I created a new iPhoto library (with a few pictures in it) and a new A3 library. I imported pictures with assigned faces and places and some pictures taken with the iPhone as well.
Every time I import a few events A3 does the same thing:
~ It imports the different events into different albums in one project.
~ All the photos taken with the iPhone will keep the places pin.
~ All other photos will loose their places pin.
~ All imported photos will loose their faces names.
~ All pictures will keep their keywords.
Does anybody else have this problem? Any ideas?

I'm having a similar problem with missing Places after importing from iPhoto 09 to A3.
After scratching my head over it, I created a new account on my Mac, imported some pictures from my camera and iPhone, and did some tests with Places. Here's what I figured out:
To retain the Faces and Places information from iPhoto, you need to use Aperture's
File-->Import-->iPhoto Library...
command, not the
File-->Import-->Show iPhoto Browser...
command.
My testing indicates that Faces were imported successfully, but Places are imported with caveats:
Places data was correctly imported for the following cases:
1. iPhone pictures with embedded GPS location.
2. Pictures whose Places location was assigned with the Paste Location feature in iPhoto.
3. Pictures whose location was individually assigned with the i (information) button and then manually searched for in the Places map.
Places data was NOT imported when the location was assigned to the entire Event in iPhoto. That is, rather than assigning locations to individual photos, I assigned a location to the entire Event, then that location information was NOT successfully imported into Aperture.
I have reported this as a bug to Apple. I hope this helps clarify the behavior for you.

How can I synchronize my iPhoto events? my iTunes doesn't read them and with the app Images in the iPad I can only find Photos, Albums, Faces and Places, not Events.

How can I synchronize my iPhoto events? my iTunes doesn't read them and with the app Images in the iPad I can only find Photos, Albums, Faces and Places, not Events.

I had a problem a couple of months ago when iPhotos suddenly rearranged the order of my Events (Why won't iPhoto let me arrange my photos?) . I was told "Use albums not events - events are not a good way to organize - albums and folder are designed for organisation and are very flexible".
Haha! I should have paid attention and read between the lines! My iPhotos were highly organised groupings - not according to date but the way I wanted them - and it was so easy to do! I see now that if I had them all in albums, as per the Apple Apologist suggestion, I wouldn't have this unholy mess I have been left with just to make iPhone & iCloud users happy. I am now going through Photos and making Albums (of what used to be in my Events) ... maybe I'll get this finished before they do another non user friendly update!

I have on my MacBook both iPhoto and Aperture and want to purchase iPhoto for iPad. If I do so, will I be able to see all my MacBook iPhoto progress (places, faces, events, etc) on the iPad app ? Via icloud or some other feature tht work like PhotoStream?

just some notes in addition to Ralphs answer: Your iPad is very useful to browse and show off your photos, i.e. the Retina iPad. You can sync to the iPad via iTunes or using the Photo Stream or a shared Photo Stream. But if you can browse and store all your photos on the iPad, will depend on the available storage on your iPad. Using iTunes you can sync events, albums, faces stacks, places stacks to your iPad. Not many metadata tags will transfer however.

How to move Projects and Events with iPhoto video included in iMovie '11?

I work with a group of educators using iPads for video. One method for getting their clips into iMovie '11 is via iPhoto and then using the iPhoto Video link in iMovie to get the footage on a timeline (trying to import directly into iMovie '11, using the iPad as a "camera", has proved inconsistent, especially with footage from iStopMotion or Filmic Pro 1 and 2).
The problem is, when it comes time to copy or move an event and project, the iPhoto clips don't come along; they are dependent on the iPhoto library, so you can't continue editing on a different machine. I tried File > Consolidate Media, but it was inactive (in my test project, all clips came from iPhoto). If I look at Reveal in Browser, it goes to the bowels of the iPhoto library. If I copy the project to another drive, it too, points to the iPhoto library (if I'm on the same machine; otherwise it doesn't see it). I also tried optimizing the footage in the hope that it would create an Event with optimized clips that I could then transfer.
Am I missing something? It seems nuts that you can't transfer work to another machine without manually picking through the bowels of iPhoto. These days, lots of shooting is done on iPads and iPhones. Any help would be appreciated.

My suggestion would be that in the future, they upload photos only to iphoto, and upload video clips directly to iMovie. In the early days of iOS, going through iPhoto was the only way, so it is a habit that I have had to break.
With iOS 5 and 6, iMovie now recognizes the iPhone and the iPad as cameras.
I agree that the Consolidate Media command should bring over iPHoto movies along with the photos. I suggest that you go to iMovie/Provide Feedback and let the developers know that you would like this feature.

Windows : Syncing photos Events, Faces and Places from Phtoshop Elements 8

Hi everyone,
I buy an iPad yesturday and i try to sync my photos.
I'm a PC user (windows 7 x64) so I try to use Photoshop Elements 8 in order to sync my photo with iTunes as describe in the iTunes manual.
Unfortunatly, I can sync the photo albums only ... but I can't sync events, faces and places information...
Is it normal ? Doesn't PSE 8 support the syncing of these information ??
If this is correct, is there an issue to have a full support in iPad Photo or do you know some app able to sync this ?
Thanks for your replies and excuse my english!
Mathieu from France.

For the folders syncing with windows pc's Photo albums:

I am not sure how Events and Faces works with PSE8 or if the method PSE8 uses is compatable with the ipad. iPhoto on a mac works for events and faces on the ipad, based on posts I have read here.

Albums and events in iPhoto

Does anyone know how to create and delete events and albums in iPhoto for iOS? I want to migrate my iPhoto lybrary from the desktop to my iPad but i cant find a way to do such basic managing.a

I was about to post a related question. I just wanted to delete an event which contained just one photo. I can hide the photo, but in the events view its still there with the hidden photo as the key photo taking up space. The only 'success' I had was to go to the Photo App, select the photo, Delete everwhere… gone. Then in iOS iPhoto, the event is still there temporarily with blank key photo, then the library auto refreshes, and then the event vanishes.
So It seems to me the Events auto generate from your Photo library metadata and thats that. Nothing you can do. You can not have a photo that does not trigger a corresponding event or I am being stupid?

Where is the event options in iPhoto with the new iOS 7 update on iPad?

Where is the event options in iPhoto with the new iOS 7 update on iPad?

You mean iPhoto the app or the native iOS Photos app?
I have both in my iPad running iOS7 and iPhoto has the Events as usual.

Iphoto albums and events

i upload photos on the mac and this creates them as and event in iphoto. I then want to organise manually so i create and album. Once they are organised if you delete the event this deletes it from the album!!! can you create and event from album with the new sorted pics?
thanks

Under the iCloud photo library beta (in settings > iCloud) it says that the following will happen if have it turned on
'automatically upload and store you entire library in iCloud to access photos and videos from all your devices...'
So why does it not do what it says it will do....?
iCloud Photo Library (Beta) is currently only available for your mobile devices with iOS 8. "store you entire library in iCloud " is referring to the "Photos" library on iPhone or iPad, not to the iPhoto Library on a Mac. On your Mac you can only access this library from the iCloud web interface.
Or will they be in the cloud in the spring.
Early next year a Photos.app for MacOS Yosemite will be released. Photos on the Mac will be able to access iCloud Photo Library (no longer Beta), and Apple announced, that you will be able to migrate your iPhoto Library to "Photos".
To see your iCloud Photo Library (Beta) use the Photos.app on the iCloud webpage.
https://www.icloud.com
or, if you want to upload to iCloud Photo Library (Beta) from your Mac, use
