How do i find photos by their albums instead of by roll?

I just began using iphoto 6 - i had been using an older version that let me search by albums when i was trying to locate and post photos. now, i can only seem to search by rolls, none of which i have named. currently, i have no way now to easily search for my photos. is there a simple solution to this?

The Camera Roll album only includes those photos taken by or saved to the iPod. Thus, if not taken by the iPod you have to save the phtos to the iPod such as email them to the iPod and then saving the photos to the Camera Roll album.

  • How can I move photos from other albums into the camera roll

    I have synced photos from my computer onto the iPad. There placed in a different album. How can I move them into the camera roll?

    You could do it by setting up a Shared Photo Stream. Select the photos in the Photo app then tap the Shared button selecting Photo Stream. Just don't enter any email address and it will appear on your other devices. Only photos can be added and not albums so you will have to re-organize then on the iPhone.
    I would recommend getting the photos to the computer as well though. Create a photo library on the computer and sync then over to the iphone with iTunes. The photo library on the computer can be added to a more reliable backup.

    Hi LoboCatholic,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are desscribing. I am not certain that this will address your specific issue, but if you are having photo organization issues in iOS 8 on your new iPhone 6, you may find the following article helpful:

  • How do I merge photos from one album to another on my iPad

    How do I merge photos from one album to another.  How do I delete, remove albums.

    If they are albums that you've synced from your computer then they are removed by re-connecting to your computer's iTunes, de-selecting them on the Photos tab, and re-syncing - albums and photos that you've synced can't be deleted (and albums can't be merged) directly on the iPad.
    If they are albums that you've created directly on the iPad then you should be able to delete them on the iPad via the Edit button at the top left of the album selection screen. You can also copy more photos into (via the Edit button when within an album), and delete photos from, those albums.

    I have 2 Macs - an iMac which holds my main iPhoto library and a Mac Book Pro which holds a subset of the library. How can I transfer photos and their metadata from the main library to the smaller 1 on the Mac Book Pro?

  • How can I find photos that are not assigned to any collection?

    Hi !
    I'm using LR 5.7.1 on a Mac.
    When I've retouched raw pictures with PS CC (and do not need the PSD file any longer) I export the PSD (that is in my catalog) as JPG and let it add to my catalog automatically. After that I delete the PSD file. That works fine.
    But .... the new JPG file is not assigned to any collection. That's no problem unless I forget to do it manually after that export (and import).
    That brings me to my question.
    How can I find photos that are not assigned to any collection?
    I tried it with a smart collection after I found nothing suitable in library filter. The search criteria I tried are Source -> Collection with any of the conditions. One with an empty value field, then with just a space and so on.
    Has anybody a good hint for me?
    Thomas

    You can also add numbers if you have collections that don't use alphabet characters.

  • How do I find photos without a keyword tag?

    How do I find photos without a keyword tag?
    And by the way a further question regarding keyword tags remains unanswered...Why is there a difference between the number next to the keyword and the actual index number in the keyword folder?

    I will try and explain in more detail to ensure we don't talk past each other.
    I'm in "Catalog" and "All Photographs" is highlighted.
    I selected to show the "Index Number" under "Library View Options".
    In "Keyword List" I have main keywords such as Europe, Africa and Asia with no number to the right of it.
    If I open the Europe keyword I have a list of countries each of them with a number next to them.
    Next to Spain there is now showing the number 46.
    I open "Spain" by clicking on the arrow to the right of the number.
    Now all the photos with the Spain tag is shown but there are only 23 photo.  Under Portugal there is 80 shown but only 40 photos is shown.  Under Ireland the keyword only 11 is shown but once open there are 1132 photos.
    There is not one keyword with the correct number next to it.
    As a fairly new LR user it just appears to me that the two function don't "speak" or "correlate" with each other.

  • How do i rearrange photos in an album on an ipad

    Can anyone tell me how to rearrange the photos in an album i have on my ipad?  is there a way to drag them to a new spot/order?

    You cannot rearrange the order of photos in iPhoto for iOS.
    You can rearrange the order of albums in the Photos app but this rearrangement does not transfer over to iPhoto for iOS.

    How can I resequence photos in an album?

    You can't do it within the Photos app on the iPad. If you want to organize photos on the iPad you need a third party app. Take a look at Photo-Sort.

    How do I find the new U2 album on the music app on my iphone? Is there something I need to do to be able to see it ?

    Open iTunes app on your phone.  go to Purchases.  It may be in the more section, (The ellipsis icon over the word More). Tap Purchased.  Tap Music. Tap Recent Purchases.  Tap the iCloud icon next to the tracks you want to download.  On my phone the songs were at the beginning of the list because I haven't purchased anything since it was announced this morning.

  • How do i find photos from iPhoto to upload to ebay?, how do i find photos from iPhoto to upload to ebay?

    how do i find photos on iphoto on my mac to upload to ebay?

    The first of these:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • I have a photo in an album and in camera roll. I am trying to delete the photo from the camera rol and the only option that i get is : delete everywhere?     Noooooo i just want to delete it from camera roll!!!!!

    I have the same photo in an album and in camera roll. I am trying to delete the photo from the camera rol and the only option that i get is : delete everywhere?     Noooooo i just want to delete it from camera roll!!!!!

    The way that I understand that it works, is that the photos are not copied into the new albums, instead it just points to the photos - the number of photos on the iPad in Settings > General > About doesn't increase when you create new album so I assume from that that it isn't copying the photo, just pointing to it. So if you delete the photo from the camera roll you will therefore also be deleting all the pointers to it
