How can I share my photos with family with text to ID the photo

I have our families'  photos on CD/DVD/my Mac's but I would like to share them with the rest of the families by way of CD/DVD.  I'm also probably the only one in my family who could id the subjects in the photo's......how can I use text ON the photo so that they are ID'd for those photos I share with them.    Judy

Adding text to a photo is not a feature of iPhoto.
You can do it with
Preview - already on your machine
BorderFX - a free plug-in. (http://www.iborderfx.com/iborderfx/)
or an external editor.
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. 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.

  • How can I share my mac book pro with my mac pro.

    Hi,
    Anyone know how can I share my mac book pro with my mac pro. At the moment I am in NewZealand and my Mac Pro is in UK. I used to share my both computer in UK in same network but I don't know how can I share with different network. Please help me.

    You can't, currently only the iPhone has the personal hotspot function, it hasn't been enabled on the iPad - whether it will be possible in the future I don't know

  • The iWork Public Beta allowed me to share Keynote presentations with anyone via the web. How can I share a Keynote presentation online via iCloud? Must the presentation be downloaded to view?

    The iWork Public Beta allowed me to share Keynote presentations with anyone via the web. Now Apple tells me the Public Beta is being replaced by iCloud. How can I share a Keynote presentation online via iCloud? Must the presentation be downloaded to view?

    iCloud is not designed for sharing data with other people: you will need a third-party alternative such as DropBox or Sugarsync.

  • How can I share my ical work calendar with my coworkers that are using google calendar?

    How can I share my ical work calendar with my coworkers that are using google calendar?

    You can only do this by syncing your calendar to an external server - MobileMe is designed for this but if you don't already have a MobileMe account you can't start one now.
    If you do have a MobileMe account the method is described here:
    http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/sharedcalendar.html#publicshare
    If you don't, you could sync to Google Calendar (Google accounts are free) or wait for iCloud which should be out in a couple of months and will probably provide this sort of facility.
    You might like to consider BusyCal which is like iCal Pro - similar to iCal but with extra facilities. It can sync calendars on a Lan and also between accounts on the same machine (you have to have fast user switching enabled).
    There is a free trial available on their website: it's slightly cheaper from the Mac App Store. (I have no connection with this company).

  • How can i share my network from timecapsule to other devices. The thing is i can use access internet from my macbook only.

    I have recently got a Time Capsule with my Macbook pro retina 15". I am trying to setup my time capsule as a wifi station at my home. But the thing is I can only access wifi from my lap only.
    How can I share my network from timecapsule to other devices, and im using OS X 10.8.2

    How is the TC currently connected into the network?
    It should work fine in bridge and create a wireless network.. it should already be able to share the network without being the main router.
    Setting up wireless from wireless is difficult.
    I would recommend you buy the USB to ethernet cable Apple sell as an accessory for Air and MBPr so you can actually use ethernet when required.

  • How can I share only a specific playlist with another family device?

    I purchased an iPod Touch for my Dad for Christmas.  I am trying to share only a selected playlist with the new device without synching everything that I have on my iPhone and iPad to his device.  I have turned on home sharing but can't figure out how to limit the automatic sync that kicks off when I plug the new iPod into my PC.  Any suggestions?

    Hello roaminggnome
    Unfortunately the support is down at the moment, I will have a better look later. I did go though the Apple support previously, however I found nothing that worked.
    The first thread I came across was “Home Sharing” however no mater what I did, it did not appear in the iTunes sharing list (I did go though the “Show Sharing Networks” support as well)
    Secondly, I saw “Using A Single Library With Multiple Accounts On The Same PC” (Something like that) but all this did was let us share the same music location, if I was to rip extra music, it will not show in there library

Thanks anyone that can help me!

  • How can I share DVD drive on Windows with multiple ODD?

    My Windows machine have 2 ODD -- one CD ROM drive, another DVD R/W
    (and one more virtual drive, which I think is irrelevant)
    Installed "DVD or CD sharing" and remote computer is visible from Air via remote disk.
    BUT when I connect and request for use, only first CD-ROM drive is ejected and MBA waits for that drive... and that drive only.
    I can't see any configuration option to select which drive I will share.
    How can I get DVD sharing work in this case?
    Does anybody have similar problem?
    (Or where can I request for this functionality)

  • How can you share Contacts and use Family Sharing?

    Still sharing 1apple ID & 1 iCloud from way back when.  Kids were little, syncing was simple... turned off their device iClouds and synced apps, playlist, shows w/ iMac via usb.  I loved having my contacts, bookmarks, notes synced via iCloud and it became VERY handy when kid1 got an iPhone (appointments, practices, friends #s w/ ease!)   We've recently added a macbook and another iPhone to the mix, we've got music issues & iPads ringing.... so a potential overall may be due?
    Now that Family Sharing is here, it's still missing features that we USE:
    * Notes (grocery list, packing lists...)
    * Contacts (each family member has a 'group' name, they add to their group and the family's master list is 'all contacts' for anyone to access incase of emergencies.... anyone keeping up w/ kids lately?!)
    * And the ever present iCloud icon is a looming feature for anyone, any age in the shared-family to be too curious...
    * CAN any of these features be added along w/ Family Sharing?
    HOW do I set up a simple family sharing system w/o interfering w/ bookmarks, personal notes, FaceTime/msg crossovers :
    share our purchases (apps, music from our iTunes/playlists, podcast),
    share our calendar
    share our contacts
    share a family notes
    msgs/facetime for each member
    mom: iphone, ipad, imac
    dad:  iphone
    kid1: iphone, macbook
    kid2: ipad
    kid3: ipad
    Thanks to anyone that has this set up and will share the method to my madness.  Didn't know where to post this, sorry about that.

    After having burned the AudioCD from iTunes Menu Advanced choose "Submit Track Names ..."
    That will put the data of your CD into CDDB.
    It may take between some hour and a few days until it is recognized on a second computer through CDDB.

  • My Wife and Ishare the same iMac, as different users, with separate iTunes accounts. How can I share some of my playlists with her iPod?

    When I go to sync her ipod to my account, Itunes wants to remove all her tunes, before it will install the ones she wants from mine. She wants to keep what she already has on it. How can we do this?

    Hello durantophone,
    This can be done by putting the iPod into 'manual mode.' You'll want to enable this with the iPod connected while in her account.

  • How can I share Quicken and other apps with another user on the same iMac?

    I would like to share some apps including Quicken with anoter user on the same iMac. I have put the Quicken app and the .QFX file in /usrs/share and changed the permissions to R/W on both files but when I log in as the other user and run Quicken it does not use the .QFX file and instead comes up with no accounts.

    The Quicken app. should be in the Applications folder at the root of Macintosh HD. It's accessible to all users from there.
    To share a file, (this from Finder Help menu)
    "Sharing files with others who use your computer
    You can share files with others who use your computer by placing the files in the Public folder in your home folder. Anyone with an account on your computer can read or copy the items you put in your Public folder (except for your Drop Box folder, which only you can open).
    To share files using your Public folder:
    Copy the files you want to share into your Public folder, inside your home folder.
    To give a copy of a file directly to another person, copy it to their Drop Box folder (inside their Public folder), where only they can see it."
    When opening a file just double-click the file - it will open the application automatically.

  • How can I share a Creative-Cloud-FOLDER with my client?

    I need to show my client a set of Illustrator Files (about 30) and it is very exhaustive (as well for me as for my client) to share one file after another. He must have about 30 links now...
    Is it possible to share a complete folder, and if yes, how can I do that?
    Thanks!
    Best regards

    Hi Tibor,
    Currently there is no way to share a folder but improved sharing and collaboration are coming.
