How can I designate the disk for the iPhoto library?

how can I designate the disk for the iPhoto library?

Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

How can I cancel ICloud back for the stolen phone, as I cannot delete the stolen phone backup (says that backup is being in use) and this is keeping memory occupied in the Cloud and I cannot back-up the other devices.

    How can I buy apple watch  for the space black stainless steel case and the black sport band for one order?

    Unfortunately no. I asked the same question when I went to the local Apple Store for my "try on" and as of now you would have to order the watch with the metal link band and the black sports band separately.

  • How can i find Czech books for the ibook app?

    i would like to download books in Czech languge.

    Google Czech ebooks.
    You'll need to make sure the format will work with iBooks or one of the reader apps when you download.
    Start with the free books and go on from there.

    Apple's policy on sales of digital content is that all sales are final. If however you wish to appeal to Apple, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History on your computer.
    Currently, if your purchase happens to be your most recent purchase you will not be redirected to the report form, in this case use the report a problem option from the invoice that was emailed to you.
    I believe your issues are probably a network issue, which unless you resolve are likely to be repeated again.

  • How can I put something in for the last Wednesday of every month

    How can I put something in for the last Wednesday of every month

    I don't believe there is such a custom repeat option with the iPhone's Calendar app, but if you are syncing calendar events with a supported calendar app on your computer or syncing calendar events over the air with an email account that supports it with an option to create such a custom repeating event with the online calendar, set up the custom repeating event there.

  • How can I make a backup of my iPhoto Library on disk grouped by events

    Dear fellow iPhoto users,
    I have a 2008 Macbook, which has a big 40 gig iphoto library.
    Unfortunaly my Macbook is (literaly) starting to fall apart and I'm afraid it's lifespan is reaching its end.
    Also I don't have enough money to buy a new Mac.
    I stil have an old PC left, but that PC won't be able to read my TimeMachine backup. So what I did is that I made a backup of my iPhoto library folder to an NTFS external drive, using Tuxera NTFS.
    But the Library is grouped By Date. So I won't be able to find back any events on my PC.
    Is there a way to backup my iPhoto Library grouped by Event to a NTFS external drive???
    Thank you in advance.
    Kind regards,
    Dennis from the Netherlands

    You can't use a NAS for an iPhoto Library. End of story.
    iPhoto needs to have the Library sitting on disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Users with the Library sitting on disks otherwise formatted regularly report issues including, but not limited to, importing, exporting, saving edits and sharing the photos.
    See this article
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5168
    for more. Note also the comment:
    “Additionally, storing the iPhoto library on a network rather than locally on your computer can also lead to poor performance or data loss.”
    You need to export the images from iPhoto to folders and then move those to the NAS - you'll need to do this anyway as iPhoto has zero crossplatform ability.
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
    Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.

  • How can create room in icloud for the time machine on the mac

    I don't like to be carrying a time capsule around. Just need some space in the icloud for the Time Machine. Is that too hard to do?

    No, it is very simple really, iCloud does not back up from Time Machine, or any other OSX program come to that. iCloud IS NOT an OSX backup system.

  • How can we get record numbers for the rows after grouping them?

    Post Author: preethibaddam
    CA Forum: Formula
    hii everyone,
    i want to number those records which are grouped by a column.
    eg: if i group the emp table with the deptno then the records for the deptno10 group should start from 1 and end with an N number and again when it shifted to deptno20 group than the records for that deptno20 should again start with 1 and end with N number.
    i tried placing record number from the field explorer but it is not working. the other group records start with the ended number from the first group.
    thanks

    Record number from CR will count all the records.  You could use a running total, and reset on change of group.

  • How can I repare the rights for my iPhoto-Library

    Hello dear Apple Support Community,
    I have a bigger problem with my iPhoto-Library which I saved on a external drive while I had a MacBook (with iPhoto '09). Now I bought me a new MacBook Pro and wanted to open the iPhoto-Library on my new MacBook Pro. iPhoto opens an tells me to update the Library for the new version of iPhoto (iPhoto '11). During this update iPhoto says that a problem occured with one or more data and that it needs to be repare the rights. Afterwards iPhoto tells me that the reparation didn't work, that iPhoto couldn't repare the rights. Then it closes.
    I already tried to change the rights in the information window of the Library, but I had no possibility to change it?!
    Thanks

    Can you successfully open the library on the EHD?  if so create a new, empty library in your PIctures folder and use the paid version of  iPhoto Library Manager to merge the library on the EHD with the new library on your new MBP.  Set the iPLM preferences somewhat as follows with  any personal changes:

    i get this message when i try to add photo to iphoto: The disk containing your iphoto is running low on space

    1 - NEVER assume - it makes an "*** out of u & me"
    2 - for the third time - how much space do you have on the drive where your iPhoto library is located?
    If you continue to refuse to answer that simple question then no one can halp

    PS - your iPhoto library is NEVER automatically moved anywhere - to move it

  • How can I login to iTunes for the first time with apple ID which already exists, without my credit card

    I`ve got an appleID. And now I want to enter iTunes Store. But it asks me to write my credit card number(Visa/MasterCard/Amex) But I don`t have such a card. So I can`t log in. How can I log in without this card???

    Hi 6323540,
    In order to use an Apple ID without a credit card in the iTunes store, you will want to change the payment information associated with that Apple ID. See the guidelines in this article -
    Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
    If you have not yet created an Apple ID and went to create one without a credit card, follow the steps in this article -
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account without a credit card

  • How can I get a refund for the u2 album that Apple charged me for

    I have just been charged £27.99 for the U2 album that I did not want. How do I get a refund for this. I can't stand U2!!

    £27.99 for the album ? If you are referring to The Songs Of Innocence album (£7.99) then that was given free to everyone three months ago, and was free until 13th October - you are sure that you've been charged, it's not a temporary store holding charge ? The purchase price should show on your account's purchase history : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store - or http://reportaproblem.apple.com on your iPad.
    If you have been charged for the album but you didn't buy it then try contacting iTunes Support via the above 'report a problem' link.
    Or you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
