How to order photos in a folder

Hello guys. I use my new iPad2 to work sometimes, and now I need to make two folders and each one with 50 photos to show to a client. I need that the items in folders has an order. I do it in the pc with the name _MG_01 _MG_02 etc, but when I see it in the iPad after sincronization, the order appears incorrect. What can I do? Thanks

The photos will be ordered by date, not by name, so you will need to manipulate their capture dates if you want them in a different order : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4221

How to import photos from a folder that contains hundreds of folders to Photos keeping the same folder structure?

You'll have to do that manually, i.e. export each album of photos to a folder with the same name located on your hard drive via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option.

How does the Photo Download Backups folder work?

I am wondering how the Photo Download Backups folder works--does it keep backups for just a certain amount of time? I just recently found this in my Downloads folder when I was cleaning out unncessary files for extra hard drive space. Mine has nearly 60GB so it would be great to clear it out if possible. (I already backup to an external drive.) Thanks for any insight.

You are talking about two different things:
Are you downloading the pdf to your computer or trying to view it in your browser? These are two different things. If you are trying to view it in your browser, which browser under which OS? How are you trying to view it. If you are trying to download a pdf, again please list the steps.
As to conversion to pdf, you use the Save AS Other menu.

How to delete photos from faces folder?

Hi my iPhoto events are all clear of photos as are all my folders. However I have 4000 photos sitting in the faces folder - how do I delete these?

Sorry but that doesn't make sense to me. There is no reason to remove the faces thumbnails. Are you trying to empty a library or something? If so, don't waste your time. Just trash it and make a new one.

HT201302 How to move photos from a folder onto the Camera Roll for printing?

I have a folder of photos that I imported to my iphone4, I want them in my Camera roll instead of in the folder so that I can get them printed. How can I do this?
All the digital printing places here will only link to the camera roll, not to the folders, for some reason.
Would appreciate any help with this, Thanks.

That is dissappointing, but expected I guess. Thanks for your help!

TS3989 How to Order Photos in Photo Stream?

Dear all,
I would like to share my photos with my Apple TV and when I place images into my Album I reorder those photos, however, when I upload to Photo Stream the photos pull from the original file name and order accourding to those names. Can we change the lable on the photo (i.e. photo001 photo002 photo003...) to display in the order we wish?
Thanks in advance for the help

There's no way to order the photos in the stream.

How to delete photos in a folder without causing unintended empty space?

So I like to keep photos in a typical Finder folder. The thing is, whenever I delete a photo, there's an empty space where that photo used to be. And those empty spaces add up and the result is not too visually appealing. Is there any way to remove all the empty spaces at once? Thanks in advance.

Need Help Ordering Photos

Hello. I am having trouble getting my photos in order on my New Ipod 20G.
The photos always appear in a different order on the ipod than they do in the window on my pc. I have tried naming in them in order etc, but they are always mixed up when they appear on the ipod. If anyone could explain how to order photos on the ipod, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.

Here is one way I discovered to deal with this problem. Make a separate sub-folder under the main folder you use to sync photos with i-Tunes. When you update your iPod it will copy this folder and it's contents. If you have a specific order you want the photos in, use a number or letter prefix in the name or some other sequential naming convention. (for example I used 01_filename.jpg, 02_filename.jpg, etc.) If you start your slideshow from this sub-folder, it will display in descending alpha-numeric order.
The photos will also show up in the folder the iPod creates by default in its default order, which seems to be first in/first out. I haven't determined whether this means there are two copies of the photo on the iPod or not.
Hope this helps.

HT4236 Hello, does anyone have any advice on how to sort photos in an albumn on an Iphone by date of photo? I've ordered them all in my Pictures but then when I sync them across through Itunes, they all end up in a jumble on my phone. Thanks!

Hello, does anyone have any advice on how to sort photos in an albumn on an Iphone by date of photo? I've ordered them all in my Pictures but then when I sync them across through Itunes, they all end up in a jumble on my phone. Thanks!

When viewing an album on the iPhone you can tap "Photos" at the bottom and that will show all photos by date. Unfortunately though it is all photos, not just the album you are currently viewing.
What I have done is the following. On the computer I have a main folder (e.g. iPhone photos) and then make sub-folders within that. Placing photos that will be synched to the iPhone into various subfolders gives quite a bit of organizational capablility. In iTunes when you select the main folder to sync, the sub-folders will show on the iPhone as separate albums. Beyond that, in one case where I really wanted a specific sort within an album I renamed the photos on the computer (something like A-picxxx, B-picxxx) so they sorted on the computer alphabetically in the order I want on the phone. That sort order was maintained after the sync.
Note that each time you sync using iTunes, the non-Camera Roll pictures on the phone will be set to match the current iTunes settings/photos -- so you can experiment.

how do i migrate photos in a folder on my desktop over to my new macbook pro

Hi d,
Connect the two Macs using FireWire Target Disk Mode http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
Then just drag the folder from your old Mac to your new Mac (it depends which you use for target and which for source, but one will show up as a HD icon on the desktop of the other; you can copy to/from that HD to/from the other Mac (the folder on your desktop).

How to delete the photos in network folder while deleting photos in iPhoto?

Hi,
How to delete the photos in network folder while deleting photos in iPhoto?
I have emptied the iPhoto Trash but the photos in network folder are still not deleted.
In iPhoto Preferences, Advance, Importing, I have UNCHECKED "Copy Items to iPhoto Library."

Please help. Thanks.

iPhoto is a relational database management program and manages only items that it controls - items within its library - it does not and will not do anything with any photo that is not in the library except to delete photos from cameras after import - and this is not recommended
You are running a referenced library and it is not recommended - it makes deleting photos more difficult as you are seeing, it makes importing photos more difficult and it makes replacing or upgrading hardware much more difficult

How do I manage photos using a folder - subfolder type structure?

How do I manage photos using a folder - subfolder type structure as I have done previously within Windows? For example, my photos were stored with a folder for each year and sub-folders for each month whicheach held the photos. Can I do this in iPhoto?

For example, my photos were stored with a folder for each year and sub-folders for each month whicheach held the photos
Why bother?
Check out the search box at the bottom of the Window. (Click on the Magnifying glass, it opens it) Now click on the mgnifying glass in the search box) and select 'Date'. Now you can find all the photos from any day, month or year. If you want to find the photos from a range - say a paticular week - then you can do that with a Smart Album.
Organising photos by date means you have to remember the date the shot was taken, and after a while, and after a few thousand shots, this gets harder and harder to do, so you spend more and more time rooting through folders.
iPhoto offers a range of organising tools and each offers more possibilites to quickly find the shot you're looking for. For instance:
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 45k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.

How do I view photos in a folder by date taken rather than by date imported?

Hi, I've got some 500 photos in a folder which were imported on two different dates. I've created a new album on the right hand side under "Organize" and just the photos I want are in there. When I look at the folder on the right, all the pictures are there. But I can't call up just that folder; instead what I get on my screen is all 2500 photos in all my photo albums! Not what I want! What I want to get is all the photos in the order in which they were taken on the actual day as all 500 photos were taken at the same day. And I want to be able to view just the 500 photos in that folder by the time those pictures were taken. But, when I imported the second batch of photos it showed the date the file was created rather than the date the photo was taken so, basically, I've got one batch of photos showing the date they were taken (which I downloaded via a link a few days later), and one showing the date they were copied! I've clicked on various tabs on the Organize and Display tabs but can't get it to work so any advice would be appreciated.
Many thanks.
Yours sincerely,
Anthony Armstrong

Once you have all 500 in the album you should be able to use the dropdown menu - there are three choices. Try switching to oldest first. Album order lets you drag into any order of your choice and they remain in fixed positions.
