How do you create a smart album so that you can look at and edit slide show fashion instead of one at a time?

Is the Apple program always this convoluted every time something new is rolled out to roll over someone?

Sorry but I have no idea what you're asking. What s "look and edit slide show fashion"? Where does a Smart Album fit into that? You know you can move from shot to shot using the arrow keys, right?

How do I create a smart album that contains all pictures with no keywords?

Hi,
I have many pictures which currently don't have any keywords at all. Now I want to tag these pictures with keywords. How can I create a smart album for those pictures without any keywords? So that I can then work just on these pictures...
Note that I don't want to find pictures that don't have a specific keyword. I want to find all those pictures which have none keyword at all.
Thanks,
Rainer

Well, there's a way but it's not great...
Start with a smart album at whatever level you want to keyword everything under. Set to search where "rating is greater than or equal to unrated".
Select all images, and apply a keyword like "NeedsKeyword". Yes, even the one with keywords already.
Now change the smart folder - use the "+" menu on the upper right corner of the query box to add an "IPTC" search. In that row use the dropdown by IPTC to find "keywords", then set the one next to it to "is", then type "NeedsKeyword" (or whatever you used) into the text box. Now go up to the top of the query box and change the "Match" dropdown to be "all" instead of "Any".
What we've done here is find all images where the only keyword is "NeedsKeyword", all the ones you've done with keywords already will not appear.
Now, copy these images into an Album (not smart album) for tagging - this is because as soon as you tag an image it will vanish and you may wish to apply more than one tags).
After you are done tagging, you want to remove the tag - this is trickier than you might think, as you need to remove it from images tagged before in addition to the images in the Album you just made.
First, change your smart folder to once again find all images by unchecking the IPTC keyword search. Now you'll see all images - but you're not done yet! You cannot batch undo a keyword in a smart folder, even though you can batch add. Select all of the images and drag into the Album you were using to keyword. Inside an Album the keyword metadata inspector shows only common keywords, NeedsKeyword should be one of them - remove it and it will be gone, and all your images tagged. Now you can remove the Album and the Smart Album you created.
Harder than it needs to be, I'd say - I've submitted feedback you need some way to search for untagged images. Heck, it may already be in 1.1! Or Joe might know of an easier way that has eluded me.
Good luck!

IPhoto 8.1.2 can you create a smart album with only one face

I'm using iPhoto 8.1.2 and have about 23k photos in the library. I have identified 32 key faces, and would now like to create some smart albums that contain only the face or faces that I want and to exclude all the others. S for example a smart album that has only my son.
I tried using the doesn't contain this face, but you can only have around 10 filters/critiria in a smart album.
any suggestions are appriciated

You can't really, because you can't exclude enough of the faces.
I would keyword the preferred images as well, so finding the face and the keyword would find the pics of the person alone.

How do I add a photo album so that it can be used on apple tv share on tv. It only shows albums that were on when we setup the apple TV ?

I have been trying to add additional picture albums to my apple TV menu so that we can view then on our TV but not sure how to do that as when I turn on the Apple Tv control the album I thought I added doesn't show up. Could use some help telling me how to do this and also to remove the older albums.

You can use the shift key to select all of the songs on the album and then drag and drop them onto your iPod. Rerfer to this thread for instructions on how to view the side bar.

How do I create a contact group so that I can send an email to several contacts without having to type individual names.

How do I create a group in my contacts so I can send an email to several people without having to type names individually? In gmail on my computer I have several groups of contacts but I don't see them on my iPad air.

In the contacts app there really isn't a way to do this. What I do however, is create a note in the Notes App with the email addresses of the people I want to email to like this: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]
Then when I want to email that group, I just use the copy feature of iPad, pasted it into the to line in an email and voila, I can email to a group.

How do I create a library of quotations that I can use in any Pages document

I live in France and write letters to different people. Unlike a simple "Sincerely" or "Best Regards" sign-off in US letters, French etiquette uses a number of "Formules de Politesses" to sign-off a letter.
According to one's position in regards to the person written to the formula can appreciative, demanding, unsatisfied, "threatening", etc.
In order to avoid retyping such formulas I'd like to save them in a Library and punch them into a letter as needed.
This was an option in ClarisWorks and perhaps AppleWorks but I can't figure out how to do it in Pages.
Any suggestions?

Create a series of shortcut expressions such as <a>, <d>, <u>, <t> etc and then make auto-substitution in:
Menu > Pages > Preferences > Auto-Correction > Symbol and text substitution

How do I save IRS pdf forms so that I can fill in and save the data

when I downlaod a US government IRS form I am unable to fill in the form, save the data and print, I have tried saving as a pdf from the print menu and using the tools menu none of which works

I know there is an app called PDFPen that is supposed to fill in PDF forms. PDFPen is available in the App Store, but it is not free.
I have no financial interest in PDFPen. I also don't know if there is some cheaper way to fill in the forms.

I have uploaded photos from the past and they are grouped by dates. How do I seperate those photos into their own folder/album so that I can easily identify the contents. Also, what is the difference between Album, Smart Album and folders?

I have uploaded photos from the past and they are automatically arranged by date. As a result, there are many events grouped into one library/event/folder/album (not sure of the proper terminology) I'd like to separate them into folders/albums/smart albums so that I can easily identify the contents. How do I do that and do I delete the originals?

It would be good to take the tutorials and learn iPhoto - these are for the previous version but the concepts are the same and much of the command is the same - and it would be a worthwhile investment of time to take the iphoto tutorials - http://www.apple.com/findouthow/photos/ - they are very helpful and will save you a lot of time and frustration. - also the tutorials in iPhoto Help will be helpful - while iPhoto is easy and intuitive it does have a learning curve and it will save you time and pain if you spend a few minutes learning the basics
as to organization - events are generally time based and are the basic automatic organization - you can merge and split them to make them work better for you but they are not a good way to do detailed organization - best to leave them time based
albums are logical things that contain photos and are just pointers to the photo in the event so they take no extra space and all changes to a photo anywhere are reflected everywhere
Smart albums are the same except they are automatically filled based on the criteria you set when you create them
Folders are containers that you create and a folder can contain albums, smart albums or other folders so they are a big help in organization - like a vacation folder that holds folders for France, USA, China with each of thos folders holding albums of photos from the country

Right-click on any IMAGE anywhere, then follow the Get Info instructions.
You can also do it on the Faces screen. At the bottom of that screen you should see a Suggested Faces bar. Double-click on one of the unnamed faces and add the person's name. If it's a new face, it will be added to face circles collection.

HT4236 How can you create a photo Album on your iPhone and import that Album onto your computer (in my case a PC)? It appears you can only sync from the computer to the iPhone, which is the opposite direction of what's desired in this case.

It appears that sync'ingis pretty much one way, from the desktop to the device. If you create a folder on the desktop that is synced through iTunes with the iPhone, that folder appears as an Album in Pictures on the device. But on the device you cannot add photos to that synced Album, so there is no way to use the desktop-based Album as an evolving target for new pictures on the phone, unless you do all the additions on the desktop software.
This really isn't "syncing".
Further, if you create a new Album on the iPhone, it doesn't appear in the sync'ed folders on the desktop.
The configuration for this discussion is iTunes 11 on Windows PC, iPhone 4S, and Windows Photo Gallery for picture editing on the PC.
I'd like to have Albums and PC-based Picture Folders truly sync'ed. Am I missing something or is this truly an iTunes Photo Sync'ing deficiency?

The camera roll is not part of the sync process at all.
You should be importing these photos to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera. Youc an organize them on your computer and sync the to the iphone if you wish.
The photos sync from the computer to the iphone is one way.
The iphone mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.
