How can I find and delete videos from iPhoto?

When I use iMovie to create a video for You Tube the program loads every bit of video I have in iPhoto.  I have attempted to delete all of the old, unused, videos but they do not all appear in the library list.  I have several videos that come up in iMpovie that I can't find in iPhoto.  Thanks for your help.

Use the serach feature at the bottom of iPhoto and enter "movie".  All  movie files imported into iPhoto are automatically given a keyword, movie.
Or you can create a smart album with the following criteria:  Keyword is movie.  Select all the movie files and use the key combination Option+Command+Delete to move the files to the iPhoto Trash Bion.  Then empty the iPhoto trash bin and the Trash bin in the Dock..

    I have a zillion copies of songs and I want to find and delete duplicate mp3 files. I have used MediaRage to find the duplicate files (16 thousand or so) but it can't delete them. It will take a million yrs to delete them manually. Does anyone know a way to do this quickly or a program that will do this for me. I have a 15 in Powerbook with OS 10.5.3

  • How can I edit and delete photos from my albums? I can't find a way to delete old photos...

    Can anyone help me delete photos? There are old blurry and duplicate photos that we are unable to delete...

    If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need to remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

  • HOW CAN I FIND AND DELETE CLEAN MY MAC

    I have been haunted with this now for 2 years. I have tried everything I can think of to get this terrible software off my Mac, but hav failed. Every few minutes this software pops up and asks me if I want to delete my trash with it. Can someone show me how to find it?
    This is my Mac specs:

    "CleanMyMac" is a scam and a common cause of instability and poor performance. The developer's instructions don't completely remove it. Follow those instructions, then do as below.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Repeat with this line:
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Never again install "CleanMyMac" or anything like it.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • How can i find and delete duplicate emails on my mac

    I use Apple Mail, Gmail and a third party email on my few Apple devices (iMac and Macbook Air both running Mavericks and iPhone 4s running current version iOS). 
    I would like to sort through, locate and delete duplicate emails (from several misguided approaches to Rules, Mailboxes, Smart Mailboxes, etc.)

    Hi,
    Presuming the Post is about the Messages app and iMessages.
    If you delete them they are gone or the Mac.
    An iMessages arrives  and is displayed in the App.
    there is a setting in the Preferences > General section about Saving on Close.
    The iMessages are also stored in the chat.db items (unless deleted) and this provides the "history" when you reconnect to a contact who is not currently on display in the main window.
    In Mavericks Saved Chats and the chat.db items (there are three in total) are held in different places.
    The app does not work like Mail where the emails can be left on the Server and "read" by other devices.
    The iMessages are pushed to the devices that then accepts them.
    After that the "sync" function ends (What you do with the iMessages on one device is not seen or changed on another)

  • How can I find and remove viruses from my mac

    I fear that I might have a virus on my beloved macbook pro. i message was spassing out and not sending my messages, my folders continue to dissapear from my desktop causing me to restart finder (not a big deal just annoying) and some other out-of-place things are happening. I don't like credit cards so i can't buy any intvirus software so I was curious to know if there is a way to search for, find, and remove this potential virus on my own.

    Apple provides and updates malware protection as part of the operating system functionality. There is no application you need to run. In using Macs in the corporate world and privately over the last 20+ years, the only malware that got into a Mac came from a shared MS Word document. That was in 1994.
    Everytime that I chose to run a commercial or opensource anti-virus tool, a full sweep showed no infections.
    There may be other systemic issues with your Mac that are the root cause for what you describe. As a baseline, I would do the following:
    Run /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility. On your boot disk, choose First Aid, and verify/repair permissions.
    Reboot your Mac. Immediately press and hold the shift key until a login screen appears. Enter your login name, your password, and before continuing, press and hold the shift key again, until your desktop reappears.
    Reboot normally.
    What effect do the above have on the problems you mentioned?

  • JS CS3 How can I find -and delete- anchored empty images frames

    I have a script that works fine with text,
    I need the same function, but find and remove anchored empty image frames
    thx
    var myDoc = app.activeDocument
    for(var myCounter = myDoc.textFrames.length-1; myCounter>=0; myCounter--)
    var myFrames = myDoc.textFrames[myCounter]
    if (myDoc.textFrames[myCounter].contents == ""){
    myDoc.textFrames[myCounter].remove()

    I'd do it this way:
    1. Grab the document's allPageItems.
    2. Iterate over it, ignoring text frames.
    3. Check to see: (a) if the parent is a character and (b) if the graphics collection of the page item is empty. If so, delete it.

  • How can I find and list videos by dimensions?

    I want to differentiate between 640x480, DVD, HDTV and Blue Ray video dimensions and sort them in a list.
    iTunes and Spotlight, or Finder search options dont inlcude this functionality.
    Does anyone know of a third party program which can find video and creates above listings?
    Thanks heaps for your help

    I think I figured out a way.
    There's a powerful conversion tool called iFFmpeg.  It's basically a GUI layer on top of the ffmpeg engine (command line tool).  If you go to the iFFmpeg site's download page you are required to download the engine separate from the app.  That will take you to here where you can download the engine:
    Download FFMPEG 0.102 OS X Intel 64bit (OS X 10.6.x, OS X 10.7.x)
    Now with that you can write a applescript or shell script to get the info for the video files:
    ffmpeg -i /path/to/file.mpg
    It will output all the info about the video file which you could parse and present any way you desire.

  • How do I find and delete old plugins

    Since my leopard days I have been migrating data over as I updraded to the new OSX 10.9. When I start to open apps. Pro tools, Logic x, and otehr DAWs, there are some plug ins that are not compatable. Rather than leave a bug, and taking more time to launch my apps, how can I find and delete some of the plug ins that are 32 bit that don't work with 64 bot applications.
    Just house cleaning. Thanks.

    Under the file tab in iTunes, select Display Duplicates. From there you can delete them as well.

  • I opened "Fedex Shipment"malware. How do I find and delete it?

    I opened an email labeled "Fedex Shipment Department." I believe it to be a Trojan or some other type of problem. How can I find and delete this?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    It is impossible to tell where malware (if there is any) might be located. I would probably clear the browser cache and cookies (if I  was concerned). If I was really concerned, I would restore my system from the latest backup.
    Apple does have code to intercept malware, but I have no clue how it works.

  • Why can't I find and delete photos from my Ipads

    I have deleted all of the photos from my Ipad.  Both Itunes and "storage" on the Ipad report 1.5GB used by photos, but I can't find them or delete them.  What gives?  How do I find and delete these photos?

    Did you also delete them from the Recently Deleted Album in Photos?

    Not necessarily. I'd suggest downloading and installing the "combo" update. That's a combination (thus the clever name) of all the updates to Leopard since it was first released, so installing it should fix anything that's gone wrong since then, such as with one of the normal "point" updates. Info and download available at: http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate Be sure to do a +Repair Permissions+ via Disk Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder) afterwards.
