How to delete an event, but not the photos

hello. i imported a few photos from my iphone 4 to iphoto and it created an event. i dragged and dropped those photos to a specific album on iphoto which is the only place i want them. i then deleted the newly created event but the photos disappeared from that album i put them in as as well. how can i prevent this from happening? thanks.

You can not, of course, do that
Events is one view of the photos in your library. Photos is another
Albums are pointers to photos in your library. You can remove photos from albums without removing the photo but you can not remove the photo without removing it. Removing a photo obviously removes it from all views

  • Can I delete an "event" but not the photos? Turn album in2 an event....how?

    If I get this right, an event basically equals every unique import of photos. Yet what am I to do if I dont want an event for every import, most especially when people email me one photo that i save to iphoto, that to me isnt a event. I spent hours upon hours creating 'albums' of what have now been coined my events.....so how do i take all the contents of one album that i created in iLife '07 and turn it into an event, even if the photos could have come from various imports along the way? iLife is telling me it's impossible, but there has to be a work around.
    So basically I want to be able to delete events, but not it's photos.
    And how do I turn my previous albums from iLife '07 & that include photos from various imports to one event in iLife '08.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Not quite. Events are NOT albums, they are an updated version of the Rolls feature in v6. As with v6, every import created a Roll, but you can move pics between Events, create and edit them and so on, just like you could with Rolls. Your albums are not affected by this activity.

  • A certain real estate web site loads, but not the photos. IE does it OK.

    www.domain.com.au is a real estate sales page. Most of the site loads but not the photos, just a word 'House' in its place. I tried same site on IE and it all loaded correctly.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.
    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions<br />
    See [[Options window - Content panel]]
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (<i>Site Identification</i> icon) on the left side of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Open the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

    If you haven't tried re syncing the apps using iTunes..
    Connect the iPad to your computer. Select it under Devices left side of the iTunes window. Select Apps from the menu, make sure the boxes next to those apps are selected then click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.

  • Photoshop opens from the finder but not the photo.

    When I click on a photo in the finder, photoshop will open but not the photo. I have to open the photo THROUGH PHOTOSHOP. Not a big deal but terribly annoying and time consuming. Not sure what changed recently to cause this issue. I have jpegs and psds set to open with Photoshop—no problem there, just no photo when Photoshop boots up.

    Select the photo then press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With section select Photoshop from the Default drop down menu. If you wish to apply this to all such files then click on the Change All button.

  • My photos are appearing "Last import", "last 12 months" and in my library's "Events", but not in "Photos" in my library.  It's been working just fine up until the past 3 months.  Dates on the photos seem to be correct.

    My photos are appearing in last import, last 12 months and in my events (in library) but not in my photos (in library).  I have never had any problems up until about 3 months ago. Did I change a setting by accident?  I prefer to view my photos in 'photos' as opposed to 'events'.  and btw, all the dates seem to be correct on the past recent months.   

    Post in the iPhoto foum.

  • How can FRT be backordered but not the phone ???

    So I ordered my iPhone through direct fullfillment on 7/19. This morning (7/28) I checked the status of my order, and it showed that the phone is no longer back-ordered but the FRT is. From what I understand, the FRT is the shipping. How can that be back-ordered if the phone isn't any longer.
    Do you think this means my phone will ship soon ?

    Well yes I guess an AT&T forum would probably be the best for this question.
    I have seen many other board members though QUESTION, GRIPE, & COMPLAIN about their woes of trying to actually get their iPhone. I figured this is like one big family, your allowed to complain about things slightly off topic to get some answers.

  • Aperture 2 sees the M8.2 camera but not the photos on teh card

    New to Aperture 2 and using the trial for two days.
    Importing photos from disk works OK.
    When I plug in my Leica M8.2 (supported by Aperture 2) the camera shows up in the top left corner but the main area in the Aperture 2 display is blank - no photos are shown - so I am unable to import.
    The pictures are on the card and are in DNG format.
    Am I doing something really stupid?
    David.

    Importing direct from camera is bad form anyway. First copy from card to a computer hard drive, then import from the computer hard drive into Aperture after backup.
    By default Aperture uses a Managed-Masters Library which sooner or later usually leads to overfilling the Library drive. I recommend a Referenced-Masters Library, which you can do by using this workflow as described below in an earlier post of mine:
    I feel pretty strongly that card-to-Aperture or camera-to-Aperture handling of original images puts originals at unnecessary risk. I suggest this workflow, first using the Finder (not Aperture) to copy images from CF card to computer hard drive:
    • Remove the memory card from the camera and insert it into a memory card reader. Faster readers and faster cards are preferable.
    • Finder-copy images from memory card to a labeled folder on the intended permanent Masters location hard drive.
    • Eject memory card.
    • Burn backup hard drive or DVD copies of the original images (optional strongly recommended recommended backup step).
    • Eject backup hard drive(s) or DVDs.
    • From within Aperture, import images from the hard drive folder into Aperture selecting "Store files in their current location." This is called "referenced images." During import is the best time to also add keywords, but that is another discussion.
    • Review pix for completeness (e.g. a 500-pic shoot has 500 valid images showing in Aperture).
    • Reformat memory card in camera, and archive originals off site on hard drives and/or on DVDs.
    Note that the "eject" steps above are important in order to avoid mistakenly working on removable media/backups.
    Also note with a Referenced-Masters Library that use of the "Vault" backup routine backs up the Library only, not the Masters. Masters should be separately backed up, IMO a good thing from a workflow and data security standpoint.

  • Imports thumbnails but not the photos

    The last time I imported photos from my digital camera, everything appeared to work fine (and the camera memory was erased, as instructed). Then I noticed that when I scrolled through the library, the thumbnails of the photos were displayed, but as soon as I stopped scrolling, they all changed to empty frames, and double-clicking one just produces a big empty frame.
    Using Klix, I recovered the jpeg files from my camera's erased memory, and re-imported them. Again, I got thumbnails but no pictures. The recovered files themselves are fine--I can open them up in Preview with no problem. And all my older pictures are fine in iPhoto. But something's gone wrong with iPhoto's importing.

    Um, never mind.
    As is usually the case when I can't figure out what the #&%$# is going on, it was a permissions issue. My iPhoto library is on an auxiliary disk drive, and somehow I had lost write permission to the "Originals" folder; possibly because my wife accessing it from her computer messed something up??
    Anyway, after resetting permissions and re-importing, it worked.

  • How do I Delete a Folder but Not the Contents?

    How do I do it?
    Thank you,

    As Rick said, just shift select the comps and the solids and drag them into the project panel.  Then click the particle folder and press delete.

  • Iphoto removing photos from some events but not the library

    I have the current MacBook Air. I import all my pictures through the photostream. Iphoto creates an event for each month, eg June 2013 Photostream.
    When I was looking through these I noticed some pictures had gone missing. I thought these had somehow got deleted but if I check under Faces they are still there and if I look at the last 12 months album they are still there as well. In the Last 12 Months album they are in the right place order wise.
    I am new to Iphoto and it worries me that my pictures are going missing from some places as I am concerned that some may being deleted completely. It also makes it difficult when you are making up an album of an event as I need to look in a few places to make sure I have all the pictures from an event.
    I can confirm that the pictures were definately in the monthly photosteam event and that they were not deleted from it by me. It has also happened in a couple of the months so it is not just one folder that is effected.

    Let me try and explain it this way.
    Say I have taken ten pictures, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
    These were imported to iPhoto and went into an event it created called June 2013 Photostream. They were all imported and showed up in order 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
    Some of them I have now tagged faces in etc.
    When I go back now and look in the June 2013 Photostream I only see 1,3,4,5,6,9,10
    But if I look in the last 12 months album I still see 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 in the right place and the right order
    Pictures 5,6,7,8 all had my face tagged and when I look in my face album 5,6,7,8 all show in the right place in the right order.
    I have got iPhoto to rebuild the library etc and they do not go back to showing in the Photostream import folder.

  • IPhoto recognizes my iPhone, but not the photos on it.

    The iPhone is a 3gs running iOS 5.1, the iMac is running OS X 10.6.8.
    When I connect the iPhone using USB, I open iTunes and it Syncs automatically.  I have to manually open it, and iPhoto too.  When I open iPhoto, it shows me the phone but with 0 pictures, even though there are .5 GB of pictures, including brand new ones, on the iPhone.
    I have powered off and back on the iPhone and rebooted the iMac, both did not fix the issue.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Actually, all I had to do was reboot my iphone. It got updated today, so maybe it just neded a fresh start. All of my photos uploaded!

  • I couldn't drag my photos from iphoto to my desktop or folder so I rebuilt from automatic backup and some photos were saved but not the photos that I need. what do i do?

    I have a macbook pro and I updated iphoto to the latest version, last night.

    Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder Window should open with the file selected. Does it?

  • How do you delete only certain pictures from the photo library on the iphone 5?

    I just purchased an iphone 5. I would like to know how you delete only certain pictures from the photo library. You can delete from camera roll, but not photo library!! There are duplicate pics and ones that I don't even want on my phone.

    Your photo library is a complete list of all photos on your phone, including the camera roll and any albums you've created.
    Therefore it will always duplicate photos in your camera roll.
    The images are simply links, not additional copies of the photo
