How do you stop pictures from going into different rolls?

Question

Everytime I transfer a picture into iPhoto it goes into a different roll. When it comes to finding these pictures, it can take a long time. Can anyone tell me how to make pictures all go to the same place?

Each import creates a new roll. You can't change this behavior.
You can edit your rolls. Select Library from the Source Pane. Go to View > Sort Photos > by Film Rolls. If rolls are closed you can Option-click on one roll's disclosure triangle to open all of them at once. Open the info pane at the lower left of the iPhoto window. Now any time you select a roll by clicking its title, you can edit its info in the info pane. You can edit the title, date, and comments. You can select photo(s) and move to another roll by dragging until a roll's title is highlighted, then drop. You can combine rolls or create new rolls.
I use large memory cards with my camera and import photos little by little, as I take them. I keep the photos from one card together in one roll. So each time I import, I immediately drag the new roll up to the existing roll for that memory card. This places those photos into the roll with the others, and deletes the newly created roll.
