From edit iPhoto returns to Event page instead of returning to folder.

When I finish the editing instead of returning to the open folder iPhoto returns to the master events page. I then have to re-open the event and find the edited picture.
What can I do to eleviate this problem ?

Bic:
Check the Events preferences and make sure you have Double click Event: Shows Event photo selected. Then when you go into an event and edit you should go back to the same event with all photos showing when done.
If you use the Photos mode with Event titles selected to be viewed (will be like the Rolls mode in iPHoto 6) you will always go right back to the same photo and it's neighbors when you edit and finish.
If you still have problems delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and try again.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • How can I stop ipod from defaulting on "on this ipod" page instead of "settings" in itunes?

    Itunes 11 has causedl problems with my shuffle:
    1) when I plug it in, the screen defaults on the "Settings"page  instead of the "on this ipod" page. This is  a hassle to have to click away from settings every time I plug it in
    2) Also, when I try to erase songs from the ipod, I have to highlight them twice (for some reason the first highlight and delete does not work
    ).  Obviously some kind of bug.
    I have other complaints that now you can no longer search for podcasts by date.  This update is really several steps back for usability.

    I actually use Autofill, but I just tried it to check if what you described happens.  It did not.
    Are you already on the iTunes window.  If you are using another window, you have to click once to put focus on the iTunes window, and click a second time to select the item on the list.  But that's probably not what you are describing.
    You're not using a "right" click for the first click...  Then, you have to do a "left" click to get out ot the contextual menu.
    In another program, such as in Mail's email list window (using the Classic layout), does the same thing happen?

  • How do i post photos from iphoto to a facebook group instead of my own page?

    I know how to post photos from Iphoto to my Facebook page, but cannot find a "simple" way to post photos in Iphoto to a Facebook "group" of which I am a member.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    There isn't a way.
    You'll need to use another method.

  • Moving events from one iPhoto library to another

    I want to move some events from one iPhoto library to another.  Does anyone know that this is possible and if so, how do I do it?

    iPhoto cannot do it . The full version of iPhoto Library Manager can transfer events between libraries, or Aperture can do this.
    You can download iPhoto Library Manager here:  iPhoto Library Manager
    If you want to save the money for additional tools, doit manually: 
    Export the photos from each event you want to transfer to a folder.
    Import the folders with images to your other iPhoto library.
    You have to make up your mind, if you want to move the original files to your other library or the edited versions.  Only exporting the original files instead of the edited files will preserve the full quality. Actually, you want to export both. Using iPhoto library Manager will ensure, that both will be transferred and paired as one photo.

  • Envy 4500 returns test page instead of scanned picture. No problem with text documents

    Scanning pictures returns printer test page instead of jpeg as expected.

    Hello @TEC23 , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are experiencing scan issues.  I would like to help!
    I would recommend checking to ensure there is no past alignments sheets on the scan glass from the setup, and perform a power reset.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Editing iphoto Album using Pages 08

    I had the issue of Mac Life that ran an editorial on how to incorporate pages with iphoto album. I THREW it out doing spring cleaning. Yes im an idiot.
    So... are there any links on the web or here that can help assist me in learning how to combine the two programs to use for my benefit of making my album better?
    Thanks a million...
    AND.. lol... if you happen to have a link to that issue ill gladly mow your lawn.

    You can use a page or multiple pages from Pages or Keynote in iPhoto by doing a Print to PDF and selecting the Send PDF to iPhoto menu option. That will create a jpg version of each page of the document which is imported into iPhoto and can be used in an book page with a one photo per page layout, a slideshow, or any other iPhoto feautre just like any jpg file. I use it to make an iDVD slideshow of every book I create and order.

  • IPhoto issues.  No events page when opening program.

    Today when I opened iPhoto my events page is gone.  The bar across the top says I'm in iPhoto, however.  I can only view the photos by going to "view" then "full screen".  This happened once before and Genius Bar fixed it.  I should have paid better attention.  Something about a plist and I think they put it in the trash.  I have only had this problem since I transferred all my info from my previous macbook to my new macbook pro. 

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • When I open firefox it is returning to the last viewed page instead of my homepage even though I have the settings set to clear history every time I close Firefox. I check and all of the previous history is still there and not deleted..

    When I open firefox it is returning to the last viewed page instead of my homepage even though I have the settings set to clear history every time I close Firefox. I check and all of the previous history is still there and not deleted..

    Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that that there are no longer Firefox or plugin-container processes left on the Processes tab in the Task Manager. Otherwise session restore will reopen the page(s) from the previous session.

  • Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized.

    Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized. I see how to do it one at a time with the "download" button in Dropbox but that's so cumbersome for lots of photos.

  • My Events from my Iphotos are no longer available on my ipad or iphone. Is there any way to retrieve them?

    I used to be able to access my Events from my iphotos on my ipad and iphone. They are no longer available on either device since upgrading them

    I have seen this problem before. Does it also ask you for a voicemail password (even if you don't have one). If so, call your carrier and have them deactivate your voicemail password and it should be fixed. What happens is, it asks you for your voicemail password and the default way to listen to voicemail is to call a number to listen to them. However, the iPhone has a Voicemail tab where all of your voicemails are stored, but the default probably got reset during your iOS upgrade.

    I have pdf file with 500 pages created from AutoCad file. In all pages, I have different document numbers.The file is not editable in pdf. How to change all the document numbers using "Comment" feature? Any alternate method?  alternate method? I have Adobe Acrobat X Pro and Windows -7 platform.

    Yes, I just want to cover up all the pages for those particular area of document numbers.
    Nothing sensitive about it. I just want to show the correct document numbers on all pages in print out.
    So, I wanted to cover up by comments, but commenting on each page will be difficult. So, I wanted to comment the same on all pages.

  • Anyone know how to export a PDF from InDesign so it is "click to go to next page" instead of "scroll to go to next page"?

    Anyone know how to export a PDF from InDesign so it is "click to go to next page" instead of "scroll to go to next page"?

    I don't use the latest InDesign, but in the past ID's options for exporting to PDF did not allow setting how a PDF should be viewed once exported.  However, these settings can be adjusted in Acrobat through Preferences: check out Page Layout and Zoom under Page Display.
