How do I copy several photos from IPhoto to an email

How do I copy several photos from IPhoto to an email?

Hello sfbates41,
Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.
To copy several photos from iPhoto into an email, first you need to select them, then you can drag them over into the email message or start an email from there.
iPhoto 9.5: selecting photos
To select a photo, click it. A selected photo has a yellow border.
Here are other ways to select photos:
To select more than one photo, hold down the Command key while you click each photo.
Drag to select multiple photos.
To select a continuous range of photos, click the first photo, and then press the Shift key while you click the last photo.

How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere without it changing into a jpg?

How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere (PSE, or desktop) without it changing into a jpg???

See if any of this info will help:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
Click to view full size
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 3 - however, if you get the navigation window
Click to view full size
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
Click to view full size
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Click to view full size
NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds.

How can i add text to photo in iphoto?

How can I add text to photo in iphoto without having lion or mtn lion?

You can't add text to a Photo in iPhoto. You need an external editor for that:
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 search for duplicate photos in iPhoto libraries?

How can I search for duplicate photos in iPhoto 9.5.1 library. Installed on iMac 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, Mavericks 10.9.5.

These applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported into another.
PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
DeCloner - $19.95 - can find duplicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
PhotoDedupo - $4.99 (App Store) - this app has a "similar" search feature which is like PhotoSweeper's bitmap comparison. It found all duplicates
Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free - was able to recognize the duplicated HDR and normal files from an iPhone shooting in HDR
Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: iphoto has duplicated many photos, how...: Apple Support Communities.
If you have an iPhone and have it set to keep the normal photo when shooting HDR photos the two image files that are created will be duplicates in a manner of speaking (same image) but there are only twp apps that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates: PhotoSweeper and Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto. None of the other apps detected those two files as being duplicates as they look for file name as well as other attributes and the two files from the iPhone have different file names.
iPLM, however, is the best all around iPhoto utility as it can do so much more than just find duplicates. IMO it's a must have tool if using iPhoto.

How can i transfer iPhone 3G photo to iPhoto without repeating the same photo to iPhoto?

How can i transfer iPhone 3G photo to iPhoto without repeating the same photo to iPhoto?

Sorry, you question doesn't make sense. If you're trying to import photos, in your camera roll, to iPhoto, iPhoto doesn't import them twice.

How can i save my importing photos in iPhoto but edit in photoshop elements 11?

how can i save my importing photos in iPhoto but edit in photoshop elements 11?

You have two options:
1. Set PSE as your external editor for iphoto and send the photos from iphoto. Save (not Save As) without changing the name or format and iPhoto will remember the original + the last edited version. (To get back to the original you will have to lose the edits, though.)
2. Export the photos from iphoto, work on the copies, make all the changes you want to name and format and then reimport the edited versions to iphoto as new files. This lets you save as many different versions as you like.

How do I totally permanently DELETE photos from iPhoto?

How do I totally permanently DELETE photos from iPhoto?

Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

How do I move my photobooth photos to iphoto?

I just got my mac pro yesterday.
I'm not sure how to move my photo booth pictures to my pictures folder and iphoto..?
When I move them I want to organize them how I usually did on windows. Very neat & organized.
I'm freaking out because I tried dragging them...I don't really know what I did but there's doubles of all of them in my All Documents folder and only one in my pictures folder.
I don't like not being able to put the things where I want them to go easily!

I'm not sure how to move my photo booth pictures to my pictures folder and iphoto..?
By default your Photo booth pictures are in the photo booth folder in the the pictures folder - if you move them from there then Photo Booth will not see them
When I move them I want to organize them how I usually did on windows. Very neat & organized.
That is fine - but if you want to view them in Photo Booth you need to leave them where it knows about them. And once you import them into iPhoto you must leave the copies (done by default and strongly recommended - especially for new users) inside the iPhoto library alone - you must never make any changes of any sort to the contents of the iPhoto library
I'm freaking out because I tried dragging them...I don't really know what I did but there's doubles of all of them in my All Documents folder and only one in my pictures folder.
I don't know what you did either - dragging files to a new location on the same volume moves the file - dragging it to a different volume copies the file
I don't like not being able to put the things where I want them to go easily!
You can - but you do need to learn how to use any new system or new software - and you have both a new system and new software - you need to learn it
The answer to your subject is to open the photo booth folder and drag the photos to iPhoto - it will import them into iPhoto and take care of them there - after importing you can do what you want with the photos outside of iPhoto

How do I add locations to photos through iPhoto on iPad?

Hi There,
I have tried searching through the forums to find an answer to this but can't seem to find it, but apologies if I've just completely missed this and it has been covered!
My understanding is that when you want to add a location to a photo through iPhoto you need to select the 'Info' option and then just type in the location, but when I select Info there is no option to add a location, it just gives you basic information and then gives you the opportunity to comment on it. Am I just misunderstanding how you are meant to add locations or am I clicking on the wrong option?
Thanks
Sean

I believe you can add location information through iPhoto '11 on the Mac, but not using iPhoto for iOS. In other words, the iPhone/iPad version of iPhoto will display map data if it is associated with a photo already, but you cannot add that map data to photos in iPhoto for iOS.
If you want to have map data associated with photos on your iPad, you have to add the location information to the photos using the desktop version of iPhoto, then import those photos to your iPad.

HT1229 how do i save all my photos in iPhoto to a USB?

How do I save and transfer all my photos in iPhoto to a USB?

Do you want to save the photos or your complete iPhoto Library?
To backup the library on an USB thumbsdrive, select it in the Finder and drag it to the icon of the thumbsdrive. Only make sure, the drive is formatted correctly. By default it will be formatted for windows systems and not MacOS Extended (Journaled) as required for photo libraries, see: Format external drives to Mac OS Extended before using with Aperture or iPhoto.

How to find and delete duplicate photos in iPhoto

How do I fins and delete duplicate photos in iPhoto?

There are two apps, actually one app and one Applescript script, for finding and removing duplicate photos from iPhoto. They are:
Duplicate Annihilator
iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates (free)
HOWEVER, only try the above if you are seeing the duplicates in the iPhoto window. If you are seeing duplicate images via the Finder then you probably do not have duplicates. That's because at a minimum iPhoto will have two separate image files of each photo, the original and the thumbnail file. If the photo is a portrait oriented photo from a camera with the auto-rotate feature there will be a 3rd, modified image file in iPhoto, the rotated version.
So be sure where you're seeing these duplicates.

How can I archive 5,000+ photos in iPhoto

i have managed to accumulate over 5,000 photos in iPhoto and i think they are slowing down my mac mini. they slow down opening iPhoto.
is there a way to archive them so i can access them if i want but don't have to have them all show up in iPhoto?
i have an external hard drive and am tempted to move them onto that although i don't know how i would get time machine to stop overriding them.

Jane,
The size of your library doesn't sound like it would be a problem, but to try to give you a suggestion to the premise of your question...
This probably won't help you on your immediate issue, but you may want to consider occasionally closing a library and starting a new one. This keeps the size manageable and easy to backup to a dvd size disc.
Of course it depends on each user and how and what they are doing, but for example, I shoot my son's rugby team each year. Each year I start a new iphoto library (ie: rugby09, rugby10, etc), separating last year from this year, etc.
This gets the old picts off your computer as you are finished with them.
Only rugby pictures go into these libraries. I have other separate libraries for other topics (grand-daughter, race cars, etc).
I can justify my method since I don't ever run into a project where I would need to be working with rugby, grand-daughter, and car picts at the same time.
This method may not work for you or everybody, but it works for me and allows me to keep topics/libraries to a manageable size and easily backed up. It's not perfect, but it works for now.
Of course with today's larger MP cameras, images and libraries are forever growing larger and larger, so even using my method, a dvd is very much out dated in regards to it's capacity. Hopefully BluRay burners will become mainstream soon and allow daily backups of 25GBs of data per disc.

How do I move my event photos to iPhoto onto new Macbook pro

I have my old iPhoto event photos on my iPhone 4 and I want to move them onto iPhoto on my Macbook Pro, which has OS X Mountain Lion. When I plug in my phone, it prompts saying that I will lose my photos on my phone. How do I move my old event photos I got from my old iPhoto to my new iPhoto? I also don't have my old computer where my photos came from.
