How to get in IPhoto chosen top photo of album presented in iOS

On Mac a photo can be chosen as top photo.
In Photos on iOS a random? photo is presented.

In fact, I find the following instructions easier to teach someone how to do it (because copying a link is not easy for everybody, many people will end up clicking on the link and then not know what to do):
1- Locate the Picasa Web Album you want to import
2- Click on the link "RSS" (in blue on the right side). This opens the album in RSS mode
3- Copy the url of the page (it doesn't matter that it now start with "feed://")
4- In iPhoto, open the File menu and select "Subscribe to Photo Feed"
5- Do a "Paste" and add (by typing): &imgdl=1
Then hit Enter
6- Wait for the album to display all images.
7- Select all and copy them to the iPhoto Library with Drag & Drop
8- Delete the Feed
(wow, I am stunned it makes 8 steps when spelling things out!)
It is interesting to note that, after step 2, if you add &imgdl=1 in the url and go there, you get what seems like the same page (the album in RSS), but the links to each photo are now hi-res (the photo name under each pic). Clicking one downloads the hi-res picture via the browser.
This is not satisfactory by itself as it would need to be done for each picture, and it doesn't put the picture directly into iPhoto, but I just find it worth noting.

  • How can I sync ONLY the top photo in the stack?

    I sync various Aperture photo albums to my IPad and iPhone. The problem is that when I have 'stacked' images (eg. one image showing in the album and two other copies 'hidden' underneath), all of the photos in the stack are copied to the ipad and iPhone. So instead of seeing just one version of an image, I see as many as are in the stack. How can I sync ONLY the top photo in the stack?
    Thanks for your help!

    I solved my own problem.
    The sync problem seemed to only occur on smart albums. There is a new check box option in Aperture 3 when making a smart album: "sync stack pick only." One click and the problem is solved!

  • How can I save the order of photos in albums? Even though I have set as album order they revert back

    How can I save the order of photos in albums in Elements 11? Even though I have set as album order they revert back to original order.

    Could you confirm that when you re-open the sorted album, the display order on the top bar just over the browsing space is still in 'album' order ? That order may have been changed to a date order. For me, I get the order of the last album I opened, not necessarily the 'album' order of the present album.

  • How to get img number in ios8 Photos

    I migrated from iPhoto to ios8 Photos on my iPad and I don't see how to display the img number that I used to be able to display in iPhoto. I import photos from my Canon DSLR and getting the img number of the imported photos is very important. Please help.

    Sorry, you cannot display any information with your photos in the new iOS Photos.app.
    You may want to send feedback to Apple, that the ability to display meta data with the photos is essential.
    Here is a feedback form: Apple - iPhoto - Feedback

  • How do I make iPhoto events with photo stream?

    I am confused about how I am now supposed to download photos into iphoto to make Events.  Yesterday I plugged in my phone to import recent photos but when it did this I ended up with two of everything because photostream had already "imported" (?) them.  So, if that means I don't need to plug the iphone in pto import the photos, then how do I:
    1.  delete the photos from my phone that I would normally be deleting everytime i import via a wire?
    2.  make an event from the photos in the photo stream?
    I also noticed that some of the photos from the same series of photos are still left on my phone--those are the only photos that are not duplicated.  I don't understand why they were left on my phone, nor is it clear to me whether the ones on my computer are from the "normal import" or from the "photo stream import". 
    Would love some clarity about this.

    As far as the duplicates.... I don't know why it's doing that. If something comes to mind I'll let you know.
    As far as using a cable...
    You can still sync with iTunes (apps, music, photos etc) via Wi-Fi and only use the cable to charge the phone. That has nothing to do with Photostream. So you should have iTunes set up to sync the photos with a folder on your MBP.
    As far as being away from your MBP for over 30 days....
    Well, in that case whatever photos are older than 30 days will disappear from photostream, but they will still be in your phone's camera roll. As long as you don't lose or break your phone, you can transfer them to your MBP when you're home again (via iTunes or iPhoto or Image Capture). If you are concerned something will happen to your phone during those 30+ days away from your MBP, then you can use an option like Dropbox to save them online.

  • How can get my Iphotos as screen saver ...all disappeared after upgrading ...I have done as suggested in deleting the files from the Finder ..now just left with the "squirly default " screensaver option

    How can I get  my Iphotos to show as my screen saver please ?  all disappeared after upgrading ...I have done as suggested and deleted all relevant files , but now am only left with the "Squirly " screen saver option in the drop down menu and no option for Iphoto library.

    Slow, intermittent.  Sometimes bootable sometime not. Odd behavior.
    Sounds to me like a classic case of your HD failing.
    Your SMART status may still show verified, with no errors on the Apple Hardware Test, Disk Utility shows no problems on Disk Repair-  this is of no help.
    I trust you have a good back-up and a bootable clone.

  • How can I stop iPhoto from trying to import albums from MoblieMe?

    Since 1 July iPhoto tries to import albums from MobileMe upon each start-up. I never created any album in MobileMe so the attempt to imort fails. I can then only click 'Retry' or 'Remind me later'. There is no option to tell iPhoto to not import any album.
    Any idea how to get out of this loop?

    Close iTunes before switching profiles or disable fast user switching.

  • IPhone no longer shows in iPhoto to import photos after 9.2 and iOS 5 updates

    For some reason my iPhone 4S doesn't show in iPhoto to import photos.  Oddly, iPhoto will launch when I plug into sync, but the phone does not show.  Also, the phone doesn't show in the Image Capture application.

    Same problem but I noticed that plugging my iphone or ipad in will launch iphoto and the device will show up on the left and new photos from the device will display.  However, the devices don't show up on the left if iphoto is already running when when I plug them in.  It's an easy workaround to turn iphoto off before plugging the device in but it's not the way it was before upgrading to IOS5 and 9.2.

  • Is there a way to reorder the Photo Stream Albums on my iOS Device?

    I have been searching for a way to change the order of my Photo Stream albums on my iPhone/iPad/MacBook Air to no avail.  Is there a way to change the order that they are shown within the Photo Stream in my photos?  Thanks

    I've been looking for the same thing.  It would seem to be a good feature for Apple to add.
    I have found one workaround that may be helpful to you, although it's a bit of a pain.  The images appear in the order that you add them to the stream.  And you can select the images from the stream itself to add them again.  So what I did is
    1.  Add all the pictures I need to the stream.
    2.  Determine the order I want them in.
    3.  From the stream, add the pictures again one by one (using "select" within the stream, then the little "send to" icon).
    4.  Delete the originals from the stream.
    And this did the trick.

  • How to get rid of invisible duplicate photos in iPhoto '09?

    Hello All,
    In the course of transfering my data from my external drive (clone of my iBook) to my new MacBook Pro, I transferred all the photos I had in iPhoto on the iBook.
    Afterwards, I realized the photos on the clone version of iPhoto were not necessary as I had them backed up elsewhere, so I deleted them all in iPhoto (on the MBP) in order to start a fresh library.
    To do this I selected them all and hit the delete key.
    Yet somehow, my iPhoto library still showed 9 GB of data.
    But where are the photos?
    I thought they might still be in iPhoto trash, but the empty trash feature is grayed out....
    So then Idecided to import a smaller collection of photos from my iBook directly to the MBP. iPhoto asked what I wanted to do with duplicates and I indicated not to import (apply to all).
    Now, my new iPhoto library is 12 GB, i.e. the deleted 9 GB + these additional photos...
    After reading some forum messages I installed the Services add-on that lets you see the contents of your iPhoto library, and almost every photo is duplicated!
    Yet in my iPhoto window, only one copy of each shows.
    How can I get rid of these invisible duplicates?
    Thanks for any advice!

    Thank you, that sounds like a good solution, except.... I've already begun erasing and reformatting my iBook drive, so I no longer have a separate copy of the photos I wanted to keep; they're in the iPhoto '09 library, along with duplicates...
    Is there no way to "weed out" duplicates ?

  • How to import an iPhoto library into photos

    I have an iPhoto library onto an external disk. After the update Photos created a new library in the local pictures folder. How can I get the photos from iPhoto's into the new photos library and than move the new library on a external disk?

    You don't. You just open the Library on the External
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch Photos.. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    Moving Libraries is exactly the same as iPhoto:
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit Photos
    2. Copy the Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching Photos. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
