How to separate single photos from that have been put into an album

I always import and categorize my photos into albums immediately. But I've accidentally imported photos without putting them into an album so they don't appear in the 'events' section. They do however appear in the 'all photos' section along with thousands of other photos. Is there a way to separate photos that are already in an album from those that are not yet in one so I can easily see which ones I haven't organized and sort them from there?

IN Photos?
File -> New Smart Album
Album > is not -> Any

I am new to Mac and am wondering if I make an Album in iPhoto by moving similar events that have been dated into the album will they just merge or will the events move into the album and keep their date

I am new to the MacBook Pro and am wondering if I make an Album in iPhoto by using events that have titles and dates will I loose the titles and dates??I had hoped to combine my ie. 2010 Trip pictures Grandchildren pictures etc but do not want to lose the dating of them.
What advice does anyone out there have for a program to add text to the pictures. I have been using Paint Shop on my PC but want to switch totally to the MAC
Thank you

1 - iPhoto is a database and there is a learning curve - it is all about photos and nothing about files - under teh help menu ==> iPhoto help watch the movies - that will help get you started more smoothly
2 - there never is a reason to go directly into the iPhoto library - do not do it (inclusing via the all images display in teh finder) - doing so can cause loss of data and photos
3 - preview or a third party editor can add text to photos
4 - events are very basic automatic automatic things and generallly it is best to leave them as buckets of photos and organize via albums and folders - and using keywords, faces and places and smart albums
5 - dates are part of the metadate stored in the EXIF fields of the photo - moving a photo will not affect that (but note that file managers like the finder do not look at the photo metadate - they look at teh file metadate which is seperate

How to delete original photo's that have been retouched?

For Ex: I'll have 8 similar picture's of my ferret's that I have retouched in order to look better--but how do I delete the original 7 that I don't need anymore? And this goes for practically my entire library--I have about 1000 photos with about 8000 similar duplicates--that I don't need.
How do I get rid of these . . . and I've tried iPhoto Diet--and (I might be using it wrong or something but) it doesn't delete more than 3 or 4 photos after about 30 mins. and like I stated above I need to get rid of about 7000 more photos.
I've tried going thru each and everyone deciding if it was the better "retouched" photo but it takes light years to go thru my entire library.
Any easier way?
Thanks!

Ok, let's try:
In the finder sidebar, you should have the different Music, Applications, Pictures Icons. In Pictures there should be one folder called iPhoto Library.
I set up a Smart Folder (in Finder > File > New Smart Folder), searching for the term 'original' within my Pictures folder.
This folder should show you all the Originals folders within the iPhoto Library.
Clicking on List View (Apple-2), you can sort your Originals folders (well, at least the search results) by Date, if you know you edited some pictures today or yesterday, or by size, finding the most edited pics from one day.
Clicking on each of these Originals folders will reveal the original, unedited pics (which you probably wanna throw in the bin, if you don't need them), as well as the MPG movies which some digital cameras can make. So be careful with throwing away the whole folders before checking the contents.
If I really want to keep an original shot, say if I do some major colour change in Photoshop for example, then I usually duplicate the photo within iPhoto. This way I can edit one, and still keep the second, both visible within iPhoto, without having to worry were the 'invisible' Original is.
I hope this makes things clearer. Let me know, if it helps.

How to check the sales orders that have been created with an Rebate Agreeme

Dear Experts,
Do you know how to check the sales orders that have been created with an Rebate Agreements?
Thanks!!

Hi Hoo Laa,
I have one way but little lengthy.
Rebate condition always appears in the billing document.
So 1st you extract the sales order list from Table VBAK.
once you have the sales order list then you can put your order list in Table VBFA --> Extract the billing document list.
Now put that list in the table VBRK.
In VBRK you will get the "Doc. condition" --> put that doc condition in table KONV with your rebate condition type.
It will show the result.
Later, through VLOOKUP you can identify in which order you have given rebate to your customer.
Already said, Little lengthy

If they’re not in a backup, try using a data recovery product such as the ones listed here. Don't write anything else to the drive until the files are recovered or you choose not to recover them.

How do I delete my pics that have been synced to my iPad?

How do I delete my pics from my iPad that have been synced from my MacBook?

You are not getting the same screen as you used to sync them to your iPad ? e.g. if you select the iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your Mac's iTunes (option-command-S enables the sidebar) then on the right-hand side of the screen the last tab should be Photos :
If the tab isn't showing then is your iTunes screen wide enough for the tabs to fit ?
To delete all synced photos try selecting an empty folder on that tab and sync that.

How do i remove email addresses that have been imported from my email account?

Im not sure how i did it but somehow i have a ton of email addresses in my contacts and I want to remove them....Is there a way to do this without have to remove them one at a time.....I hardly send anyone emails from my contact list and would love to get my list back to just people with phone numbers....
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

Select each photo in the smart collection with the missing question mark icon. Use Cmd+Click or Shift+Click on the first and last if they are all in a consecutive block. Then click top left on the Catalog tab and choose All Photographs. Confirm from the information strip (above the filmstrip) that you are in All Photographs and the number of photos you have selected and then use the menu:
Photo >> Remove Photos From Catalog

Why would you be surprised? You were syncing your Notes with iCloud or a Mail Account. Synchronization means when you make a change on one device, it affects all other devices that are synched for the same purpose. Like when you delete an email (usually) it also disappears from your other devices as well.
