How do I get iPad to use a different iPhoto library?

I had to make a new copy of my iPhoto library and now it is current on my computer.  the iPad is still referencing the original library.  How do I reset this on the iPad?

Start iTunes on your computer and connect your iPad. Select your iPad in the left column of iTunes on your computer and select photos in the right column. Under Photos check the sync selected albums choice and select the albums you want to have on your iPad. iTunes uses the active library used by iPhoto on your computer so the album list that appears should be your new library. Once you have selected the albums you want on your iPad select Apply or Sync. The sync process will take place, your old photos on the iPad will be removed and the new albums copied to the iPad.

  • How do you get Photos to recognize the "old" iPhoto Library on an external drive without it copying it to the internal drive on the computer which is low in HD space?

    How do you get Photos to recognize the “old” iPhoto Library on an external drive without it copying it to the internal drive on the computer which is low in HD space?

    Launch Photos while holding down the alt/options key.
    This will show the Library Chooser panel. Select the library on the external drive. Photos will create a Photos Library on the same drive.
    Photos may not be able to open the library, however, if your external drive has an incompatible file system. It needs to be formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled) and locally mounted, not a remotely mounted volume, as described here:  Format external drives to Mac OS Extended before using with Aperture

  • How can I get iMovie 10 to see my iPhoto Library after I relocated it.

    How can I get iMovie 10 to see my iPhoto Library after I relocated it. I moved my iPhoto Library to a secondary hard drive, because my main SSD wasn't large enough. I then upgraded to IMove 10.0.4 and also moved my iMovie Library to the secondary hard drive. When I highlight the iPhoto Library in iMovie there is nothing there. Any ideas on how to get iMove to find my relocated iPhoto Library?

    I think I may have solved my own problem. I left cliked on the relocated iPhoto Library and went to "Open with >." I then went to "Other...." I then set the wind located in the bottom labled "Enable:" to "All Applications" and picked iMovie. It gave me a error, but the ultimate result was that iMove now was linked to my iPhoto Library.

  • How to I get iMovie to recognize a moved iPhoto library?

    I am very close to running out of space on my comupter - and my iPhoto library was taking up a huge chunk of space.
    So, I moved my iPhoto library to an external harddrive that I keep plugged into my computer.
    Unfortunately, I have many video projects in iMovie where I used clips from iPhoto. Now that the library has moved, any time in a project that a clip from iPhoto is supposed to play there is a black screen with the words "source clip is missing".
    Please let me know how I can keep the iMovie projects in their completed state (aka without these source clip missing errors) while still having the iPhoto library on my external drive.
    Thank you so much to anyone who can help!
    (I have iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09)

    Hi
    I don't think it can.
    My wild guess is that it (iPhoto Library) has to be put back - then in iMovie some sort of moving the movie project with it's recourses might work. BUT I'm out on very thin ice here as I prefer iMovie HD6 and FinalCut and here I create a folder first with my raw material movies, photos, audios and texts and put this on an external Mac OS Extended (HFS) formatted drive. This keeps movie project and material stored in one place and I can have the Start-Up hard disk reasonable free (minimum 25Gb)

    Oh nice, there's a PassKeeper application for the iPhone and iPad.  Simply install it and it should talk you through steps, otherwise their website is probably a great place to check.

    I really like the application 1Password, and it works across all the products, Mac, PC, iPad, iPhone.

  • How do I get iPad to recognize my location

    How do I get iPad to recognize my gps loction

    A WiFi-only iPad does not have GPS. Location services with a WiFi-only unit are dependent on the WiFi router being entered into whatever database Apple uses for that router's location. If the router isn't in the database - and there's no way for any of us users to enter or change the information - then no location will be returned. The same will apply to an incorrect location.
    If your iPad won't show any sort of location regardless of what WiFi router its connected to, post back and someone can probably offer further advice.
    Regards.

    If the purchases are all from the same account then you can share the content by authorizing each device.
    If you have separate accounts then you have to be authorized to use the content purchased from another account.

  • I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
    You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
    You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
    Menu > Format > Import Styles
    The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

  • After upgrading to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5 my shared photo streams seem to contain no photos when seen in iPhoto. From iPad the streams are fine. How can I get them to be recognized by iPhoto again?

    After upgrading to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5 my shared photo streams seem to contain no photos when seen in iPhoto. From iPad the streams are fine. How can I get them to be recognized by iPhoto again?

    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • How do I get imovie to use Photoshop Elements 12 as external editor?

    How do I get imovie to use Photoshop Elements 12 as external editor? I am making a movie slide show with music from my Caribbean vacation photos and adding text captions to photos in PS Elements 12. I can also add some effects to photos like edge blur although I like iphotos effects better but iphoto doesn't seem to do text. The finished PS Elements photo doesn't seem to want to be shared by iphoto which is what imovie uses...
    I am still learning to use PS Elements 12 for Mac (had PSE 7 for WinVista but wasn't proficient) and Mac and it's programs are new to me. I switch between my old Dell which is still amped for graphics and the new Mac mini. I started to use Movie Maker to do my vacation project but read that imovie was better but so far it doesn't seem to have as broad of file useage when it comes to imovie and photo files.
    Hmmmmm??? What to do?

    You simply need to create your stills with Photoshop Elements, save them in a suitable format (.jpg, .png, .tiff are all acceptable) then drag and drop them into your iMovie timeline.  You don't have to use iPhoto.

    iPad games only work on iOS devices - you can't copy them onto tablets running other operating systems. You will need to buy separate Android versions.
