How do I pan a photo inside a layout box?

I am in 'Edit Layout' mode.
I have placed a photo in a layout box and I wish to pan to particular area of the photo without changing the size or shape of the layout box.
The Apple "Versatile Printing and Publishing" Quick Tour video demonstrates this 4 minutes in, yet I can't figure out how to do it. There seems to be no icon that enable this.

This is demonstrated in the video DVD that accompanied your copy of Aperture.
That DVD is really eye opening to the power of Aperture. Even if you watched it once when you first bought Aperture, the DVD is worth taking a look at again after you've spent some time with Aperture.

How do I get a photo inside a custom shape in CS6

How do I get a photo inside a custom shape in CS6...

Also, in Sharon's method - "simply press delete" on a regular jpg picture will bring up the Fill Dialog in CS6, with Content Aware being default. Not what you you want here.
If the OP wants to use a selection as a "custom shape", then creating a mask by clicking on the Add a Mask icon at the bottom of Layer panel (third in from left) is preferable to inverting the selection and deleting pixels.

How to get a photo inside the little box in the "Lower Third" Sports Theme?

In iMovie '11, in the Sports theme, in the Text page titled "Lower Third," how can I get a picture of a person inside that little box? That sports theme comes up/shows up at the box "Set Theme": Sports. They are all a fluorescent blue, very nice for name tags if I could get faces/pictures inside those boxes.
Important: Under :Windows" (in control panel) there is an option to click SPORTS EDITOR. I tried working with that. I tried to put a picture in one of those boxes, but the experiment failed.
Any ideas?

just drag'n drop from Finder any (... 'any' : shouldn't be a 16MBit monster-sized pic, just a small one, look at the aspect ratio) jpeg into it.
so, what exactly failed?

How do you place a photo inside text

Hi,
I am trying to place a collage of photos inside outlined text. I can't seem to figure it out in CS5. I was also trying to do it with text that was outline, but it was warped. Any suggestions?

s,
Amended version:
You may use Live Type.
If the photos are within the boundaries of the lilac rectangle, you may (with the rectangle in front of the photos):
1) Select the Live Type and the lilac rectangle;
2) In the Transparency palette/panel flyout select Make Opacity Mask (Clip and Invert Mask unticked).
If not, you may (with the rectangle in front of behind the photos):
1) Select the Live Type and the photos;
2) Object>Clipping Mask>Make.
And I forgot about the white stroke for the letters, as rightly pointed out by Wade:
With a copy of the Live Type on top of everything:
3) In the Toolbox set Fill to None;
4) In the Appearance palette/panel flyout Add New Stroke, set Stroke Weight and colour as desired.

In imovie, how do I fit a photo inside the screen? Every time I try to zoom out it bounces back in!

According to the help page, I remove the kens burn effect by matching the start and end frames. The problem is the photo remains zoomed in! And whenever I try to zoom out it just revert right back to where it was zoomed in. I've tried looking for settings or preferences and can't find any. Can anyone help me please?

You can't avoid that if you use backspace or go back otherwise (toolbar Back button or via the right-click context menu). You will have to use the link or button on that page to go to the inbox.

How can I remove all photos and directories from iPhoto?

How can I remove all photos and directories from iPhoto as if it was a brand new install?
I am new to iPhoto and was unaware of how it works, honestly I still am a little confused as to when pics I am using 1/2 the time, some from iPhoto and some from MyPics.
Anyhow, I am looking to remove all photos from iPhoto because during the migration of all my photos from PC to MAC, somehow my timeline became messed up and all my photos that have been logged my dates since 1998 are now all messed up.
Although all my year folders are still in tact, IE 1998-2006, the subfolders and like pics are all intertwined somehow.
And when I search iPhoto for a given year, photos from 2,4, 8 yrs back show up in 2006.
Anyhow, I have selected and deleted all photos and folders within iPhoto, and then import the desired photos from MyPics, only to have the photos double up in the library. ( The old ones that should be deleted and the new imports)
I simply don't get it, they fill the trash and disappear when it's emptied, then reappear when iPhoto re-opens!
Can someone help????
I have completely reworked all my photos so that they are all in the correct folders outside of iPhoto, and now I want to import those and only those pics with that file structure.
IE Structure = YEAR > MONTH > DAY ( or if needed) > DAY/EVENT

Do you want to remove the existing full sized image files also? If so then just drag the iPhoto Library folder from the Pictures folder to the Trash and empty it. But be warned you'll lose all of your image files.
You are dragging the files to the iPhoto Trash bin and then using the iPhoto->Empty Trash menu, right?
In copying your photos to myspace and then back the original capture date may not be retained and then either the created date or modified date will be used by iPhoto. If the files in the current library are the originals from your camera then those have the best chance of retaining the correct Captured Date. You can check that out by dragging the Originals folder from your iPhoto Library folder to the desktop and then trash what remains of the iPhoto Library folder. Then launch iPhoto and it will ask you to create an new library. Then import that Originals folder and it's subfolders by dragging it into iPhoto's open window. You'll keep the same rolls that was. The roll dates may change but you can check the captured date of the files by using the calendar in the Source pane.
You won't be able to keep your folder structure within iPhoto. Each outside folder will result in a roll with the same title as the folder. You'll be able to create folders in the Source pane to put albums inside. You can create a smart album to include all photos in a certain date range, line one month.
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.

How do I rename a photo in the iphoto folder?

OK, so I know that you can change the name of a photo while in iphoto by simply pressing the "i" button at the bottom left, but that doesn't change the actual name of the file.
And I know that I can do that by going to Share-Export-Use Title and then put it in the same file that the original picture is in.
My question is....if you do that, then you have two of the same pictures in the same folder (one with the name you gave it and one with a name the computer gave it...some IMG_0812.JPG name), so after I've done this, can I delete the original picture with the numbered name so that I only have the picture with the name I gave it to reduce clutter?
Anyone? Anyone? I ask this question because I'm an organized freak and hate when I need to go and attach a photo I need to know when I took the photo (the month and date) and then all I see are numbers for the names.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
How do I rename a photo in the iphoto folder?
You don't.
And I know that I can do that by going to Share-Export-Use Title and then put it in the same file that the original picture is in.
That depends on how you "put" the renamed export into the "same file." You can Import it into your iPhoto library. If you use the Finder or a Save dialog to save directly into the iPhoto Library folder then this photo will not be recognized by the database.
...can I delete the original picture with the numbered name so that I only have the picture with the name I gave it to reduce clutter?
If you imported the renamed Export properly, and now see both versions of the photo in the library (within the iPhoto application), then yes, you can place the first version in the iPhoto Trash, then Empty iPhoto Trash. Absolutely do not do any of this from within the Finder.
I'm an organized freak and hate when I need to go and attach a photo I need to know when I took the photo (the month and date) and then all I see are numbers for the names.
Don't root around inside the iPhoto Library folder to find your photos for attachments or uploading.
Why: iPhoto is a database application, not a file browser. You aren't supposed to go inside the iPhoto Library folder at all. See this from the iPhoto Help, under "About using the iPhoto Library":
"IMPORTANT: There is also an "iPhoto Library" folder located in the Pictures folder in your home folder, outside the iPhoto application. If you move, delete, rename, or otherwise touch files or folders within this folder, you may be unable to see your pictures in the iPhoto application.
"The files within this folder should only be manipulated by a customer care representative."
To access your photos, use iPhoto. They are perfectly organized and easy to find, with all of iPhoto's tools at your service. No need to remember the date you took the picture. When you need to upload or attach your photos, select them in iPhoto and do a Share > Export to a Desktop folder. Attach or upload from that folder, then trash it when you are finished.
If you absolutely want to rename your photos it's best to do this before importing into iPhoto. You can use Image Capture (look in your Applications folder) to upload from your camera to a Desktop folder. Use the Finder to preview and rename the files to your liking. Name the folder the way you want the Film Roll to be named in iPhoto. Import the folder into iPhoto, and then delete the one on your Desktop.
But do learn to keep out of the iPhoto Library folder when you are in the Finder. Tampering inside that folder causes much of the damage that I see people coming here to try to repair. Once your photos are inside the iPhoto library, it's best to use iPhoto to do what you want with them.

How do I transfer a photo-file (the way it's organised on the phone) into a computer?

I have organised pictures taken in different times into a folder on my phone, but I don't know how to transfer that folder exactly as it is into my computer. When I copy my photos through "My computer" then click on "iPhone device", I usually get the folder of pictures mixed up and "messed" into times they were taken and not the way I have organised them.

You can only transfer the photos inside the camera roll, albums you create on the phone can't be transferred.

FAQ: How do I organize my photos by criteria other than date?

Adobe Revel sorts the photos that you upload in your photo library by date. However, you can create an unlimited number of albums in your library. So, you could set up different categories (albums) to sort the photos by theme or event, for example.
To create an album on iOS, tap the icon in the upper-left corner, and then tap Create New Album. Name the album, and tap OK. Select the photos that you want to add to the album, and then tap Add.
To create an album on Mac, click Create New under Albums in the left pane. Enter a name for the album. To add photos to the album, click the plus icon in the upper-left corner.
To create an album on Adoberevel.com: Click on the Albums tab then select "Create an Album"
Note: The photos inside each album are sorted by date. There isn't a way to sort other than by date within a album.

How do I create multiple photo albums?

I was curious as to how I can create multiple photo albums using only the iPhone 4. I found out a way to creat "one" album. But I can't even change the name of it and it's not very useful if I can only create one album. I have a lot of pictures on my phone and I would like to sort them out. I use Windows 7 not a Mac. (Wish I had one though)
Also, will the iOS 5 allow users to create photo albums using only the phone? The current OS doesn't seem to allow it.
Thanks for your time!

I should have fiddled with my computer more. I figured it out by creating a "Master" folder. And inside that folder contains more folders with my organized pictures. But, would still like to be able to do this all on the phone. That would make the iPhone just THAT much more simple.

IPhoto..how do I copy a photo and drop it into another album?

IPhoto..How do I copy a photo in one album and paste it into another?

I have IPHOTO 9.5.1 I used to be able to drag and drop but it won't do that anymore.
then something is wrong - drag and drop between albums should work. Itb is working for me without a problem. While viewing an album, select the photos inside that you want to include anither album and drag them to that album in the sidebar of the Source List like this:
Is that, how you have tried it?
If this does not work, repair your iPhoto library.

You turn on Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane:

How do I flip a photo horizontally or vertically in iPhoto?

How do I flip a photo horizontally or vertically in iPhoto. I can rotate but can't figure out how to flip them.
Thanks

You will have to use another application. Preview will do it. Set up iPHoto to use Preview as the editor of choice. Then double click on the thumbnail to open it in Preview, flip the image and save.
Using 2 Image Editors in iPhoto
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and a 3rd party editor without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected the 3rd party editor as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". Then when you Control-click on an image, you can select "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu to edit in your selected editor.
