How do I add captions to pictures?

I am very new to the MAC world (one week to be exact). I have searched help and can find a method to select the font to add captions to photos but cannot find the method. I want add captions to photos in an album and then use the album to create a slideshow. Any help would be appreciated.

Another way to put captions in the slideshows is to first put the captions in the Description field that TD mentioned and then use this script to write those descriptions into the Title field to use in the slideshow. When you're done you can use the Photos->Batch Change->Title to File Name.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries 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.

How do you add captions to pictures

Some of my pictures have caption and some do not. How do I add missing captions?

The photo has a caption that shows on Photo Element.
The document does not allow me to add one. How do I do that? Also where do I learn to enhance this photo.
Look everyone I am 81 yrs. old and need some advice. I am just writing a Historical Biography on two of these women; my Cherokee grandmother and my great grandmother. I know I can do this. It is just a high learning curve. Thanks

I haven't seen any mention of adding the text feature to photos, but Apple is always tight lipped on new features. Try a photo editor app like the one below.

HOW DO I : Add caption to photos; show captions when photo prints

using Mac (OS 10.4.8) , importing jpeg from iPhoto 6.
Photos were named in iPhoto but name (example: "johnny Jones, 2006") is not imported.
I need the photo names ( or "label" or "caption"- whatever it is called.
I don't know how to caption (name) individual photos in Photoshop Elements 4. I see the Get Info but when I add a title , it shows up as " johny Jones, 2006.jpg"
- I don't want the extension ".jpg" to show up
- I don's see any caption when I do a print preview
How is this done?
( am making a picture package of friends' pix.. need to show name of each friend below the person's photo
NOWhere do I find information on this, not in help, tutorials, etc
Don't people want to see printed captions anymore? Metadata in my Elements file is not the anwer.
I don't want a name layer in the photo; I want a text label for each picture.

Barbara,
You could enlarge the canvas - Image>resize>canvas size, select a % increment for height, click the arrow pointing towards 12o'clock, check relative. Then type unique caption below picture with text tool. Text will be on its own layer, position it in place, simplify layer. You can fill residual area of transparency at bottom with paintbucket tool in color of your choice. Finally crop picture to conform to size of your paper.

How do I add multiple pictures to my order? It wants me to check out after each one!

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
can you post a screenshot of the order window?

How do you add captions to photos in iDVD slideshows?

Is there a way to add captions to photos once you've put them into slideshows on iDVD? Or, if not, is there another way to add captions to them, though another apple application such as iPhoto? I haven't been able to figure out how to make captions for photos in iPhoto slideshows either. Please help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. if you're creating the slideshow from stills in iDVD use the Settings button at the bottom to bright up the pane where you can add titles and comments. The downside of that is every photo will automatically have it's file name or title entered. If you don't want that then while you're in iPhoto use the Photos->Batch Change->Title->None option before you import into iDVD. Then none of them will have the titles entered and you can add them to just those that you want. Or you can add them while in iPhoto before importing.

How do I add captions?

I have pages of copy interspersed with photos. I would like to add captions over the bottom of the photos. In GL9 I simply added a floating box and wrote in the copy. That doesn't seem to work here. No matter how carefully I think I am positioning the curser (using code view) I cannot get a box over the photo. If I try to use relative,where do I insert to make it relative to photo. I actually want it inside the photos.
Thanks.

DW is much, much easier to use if you learn HTML and CSS basics fist. 90% of the answers given in this forum are in Code speak. So if you don't know how to work with code, you probably won't understand the answers we give you.
As an example, look at this photo proof page.
http://alt-web.com/TEMPLATES/CSS-Semi-liq-photo-sheet.shtml
The relevant CSS code is like so:
/**this styles image container**/
.photos p {
float:left;
width:auto;
height: 14em;
margin: 10px;
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid silver;
/**this styles caption text**/
font: italic 12px/1 Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #666;
text-align:center;
/**same size images recommended, adjust as req'rd**/
.photos img {
width: 92px;
height: 124px;
/**float clearing**/
.clear_photos {
clear:left;
height:1px;
width: 100%;
And the HTML code looks like this:
<body>
<div class="photos">
<p><img src="your-image-goes-here.jpg" alt="#"/><br />optional caption</p>
<p><img src="your-image-goes-here.jpg" alt="#"/><br />optional caption</p>
<p><img src="your-image-goes-here.jpg" alt="#"/><br />optional caption</p>
 </div>

<hr class="clear_photos" />
</body>

How do you add people's pictures with contact info?

How do I add photos of my friends with their contact info?

See this...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302493
I would imagine that they just have to be in the program you are syncing from. If you are on Windows XP, the pics would have to be in Microsoft Outlook.
You would add it here in outlook...
If you are adding contacts manually (by dragging the vCard files to the iPod) then you cannot have pictures displayed.

How can I add captions to CS4 Web Galleries?

I need to create an image slideshow on a website, something I have never done before, and Bridge CS4 seems to offer a useful selection of Web Galleries. However, the standard Web Galleries only seem to display the filename (whether you like it or not) and do not appear to offer any captioning facility.
Am I missing something? Without the ability to add my choice of multiline captions, the Bridge Web Galleries are not much use to me. If there is no way to modify these galleries to add captions can anyone suggest an alternative solution, ideally at zero or minimal cost?
David

David,
The caption options in the Bridge web gallery feature are limited. You can specify titles, captions, and descriptions that appear on every page of a gallery, and you can choose to display filenames, cell numbers, or all metadata for individual images in some templates. Otherwise, the templates do not display unique captions with individual images. Documentation is at
Create a web photo gallery with Adobe Output Module.
The web photo gallery feature from Photoshop CS3 is now an optional plugin for CS4. I believe some of those templates have some additional caption options. You can find out about downloading and using the optional plugin at
Creating web photo galleries.
If you'd like to make a feature request, go to www.adobe.com/go/wish.
