How to use "subscribe to photo feed" in iPhoto?

Apple really created some headaches when they dumped Gallery before Photo Stream Sharing was ready. So I have been looking for a substitute.
I see under iPhoto's File menu a feature called "Subscribe to Photo Feed".  But I can't find anything about how to use it, or how to manage subscriptions.
The best I can do is to find this is used to access RSS feeds. If so, is there anyway to automatically share photos added to iPhoto to an RSS feed? Or even manually to something like Twitter?
Anybody got any experience with this?

Thanks Terence. But I am aware. What I'm looking for is a whole solution. In other words, I need to not only be able to subscribe from within iPhoto, but also share to the rest of my friends and family with Macs from iPhoto.
I'm actually stunned that there is not more information online about how Photo Feeds work. I don't even really know what to expect to see in iPhoto.
Nevertheless, using Mountain Lion, and iOS 5 I'm looking at sharing photos with Twitter (used explicitly for photos), then having my friends and family subscribe to the Twitter RSS feed in their iPhoto app. However, it appears there's no way to get the Twitter RSS URL. So that seems to leave that option dead in the water. I suppose my friends and family could just follow my Twitter feed, assuming they can easily access it online. It would be much better to have a solution where the photos are automatically downloaded and they can look at them at their leisure.
I don't think Photo Feed subscriptions are available in iOS devices, including the Apple TV. So that limits them to the Mac.
Maybe I should just wait for iOS 6 and Photo Stream Sharing in what, September, October?

  • How do you subscribe to photo feeds?

    Hi!
    Could someone please tell me how to subscribe to photo feeds? I know where the option is in iPhoto but when I tried typing in the URL for a deviantArt picture group that I was interested in receiving it did not allow me to do it.
    Which websites does it work with?
    Thanks,
    Shams.

    Now if you want to just subcribe to the Group in general; as soon as you get to desired group listing, before clicking on a topic, look to right and click on email notification.
    Also if your tired of a Particular Group when you go to that group click again to discontinue email notification. It will not stop other threads on your post , but will stop email Notifications.
    You can also set in prefrence to receive notication to Topics you reply to

  • Subscribe to Picasa Photo Feed in iPhoto '09 or '11?

    A colleague uploaded 100+ photos to her Picasa account.  I can view the photos and download them one ... at ... a ... time.  I'd really like to download the entire Picasa album.
    I found iPhoto '09's File > Subscribe to Photo Feed, but it's unhappy with Picasa's RSS URL:
    A variety of Community posts and other forum notes from around the Web report this worked in iPhoto '08.  But I've found no mention of using the Subscribe feature with iPhoto '09 or '11.
    At this point, I'd welcome any way to do a bulk download from Picasa on Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    -- Ward

    Hello!
    I think I just figured it out... when you go to get the RSS feed on your PIcasa account it has "https:" in the address like this
    feed:https://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base....
    If you delete the "https:" and have an address like this you will be good to go! feed://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base...
    Hope that works for you!

    I deleted a photos from iphoto, later I found them in imoive, how do I move the photos back to iphoto?

    Hi Canadian Beaver Tail!
    You may want to try restoring the photo in iPhoto, using the instructions suggested in the following article:
    iPhoto '11: Delete or restore a photo
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2398
    To restore a deleted photo:
    If you haven’t yet emptied the iPhoto Trash, do the following:
    Select Trash in the Source list.
    Select the photo you want to restore.
    Choose Photos > “Restore to Photo Library.”You can also drag the item out of the Trash into an empty part of the Source list.
    If you use Time Machine to back up your computer, you can recover a photo, an Event, a folder, an album, a project (such as a book, card, or calendar), or a slideshow even if you deleted it from the library and emptied it from the Trash.To restore photos, quit iPhoto, open the folder containing your iPhoto library, and then open Time Machine.To open Time Machine, click its icon in the Dock, or click the Time Machine icon in the menu bar and choose Enter Time Machine.For more information on using Time Machine, see the topics in Help Center. In the Finder, choose Help > Help Center, and then search for “Time Machine.”
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • How do I rename a photo in the iphoto folder?

    OK, so I know that you can change the name of a photo while in iphoto by simply pressing the "i" button at the bottom left, but that doesn't change the actual name of the file.
    And I know that I can do that by going to Share-Export-Use Title and then put it in the same file that the original picture is in.
    My question is....if you do that, then you have two of the same pictures in the same folder (one with the name you gave it and one with a name the computer gave it...some IMG_0812.JPG name), so after I've done this, can I delete the original picture with the numbered name so that I only have the picture with the name I gave it to reduce clutter?
    Anyone? Anyone? I ask this question because I'm an organized freak and hate when I need to go and attach a photo I need to know when I took the photo (the month and date) and then all I see are numbers for the names.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    How do I rename a photo in the iphoto folder?
    You don't.
    And I know that I can do that by going to Share-Export-Use Title and then put it in the same file that the original picture is in.
    That depends on how you "put" the renamed export into the "same file." You can Import it into your iPhoto library. If you use the Finder or a Save dialog to save directly into the iPhoto Library folder then this photo will not be recognized by the database.
    ...can I delete the original picture with the numbered name so that I only have the picture with the name I gave it to reduce clutter?
    If you imported the renamed Export properly, and now see both versions of the photo in the library (within the iPhoto application), then yes, you can place the first version in the iPhoto Trash, then Empty iPhoto Trash. Absolutely do not do any of this from within the Finder.
    I'm an organized freak and hate when I need to go and attach a photo I need to know when I took the photo (the month and date) and then all I see are numbers for the names.
    Don't root around inside the iPhoto Library folder to find your photos for attachments or uploading.
    Why: iPhoto is a database application, not a file browser. You aren't supposed to go inside the iPhoto Library folder at all. See this from the iPhoto Help, under "About using the iPhoto Library":
    "IMPORTANT: There is also an "iPhoto Library" folder located in the Pictures folder in your home folder, outside the iPhoto application. If you move, delete, rename, or otherwise touch files or folders within this folder, you may be unable to see your pictures in the iPhoto application.
    "The files within this folder should only be manipulated by a customer care representative."
    To access your photos, use iPhoto. They are perfectly organized and easy to find, with all of iPhoto's tools at your service. No need to remember the date you took the picture. When you need to upload or attach your photos, select them in iPhoto and do a Share > Export to a Desktop folder. Attach or upload from that folder, then trash it when you are finished.
    If you absolutely want to rename your photos it's best to do this before importing into iPhoto. You can use Image Capture (look in your Applications folder) to upload from your camera to a Desktop folder. Use the Finder to preview and rename the files to your liking. Name the folder the way you want the Film Roll to be named in iPhoto. Import the folder into iPhoto, and then delete the one on your Desktop.
    But do learn to keep out of the iPhoto Library folder when you are in the Finder. Tampering inside that folder causes much of the damage that I see people coming here to try to repair. Once your photos are inside the iPhoto library, it's best to use iPhoto to do what you want with them.
    Regards.

  • How do i find duplicate photos in my iPhoto library?

    How do i find duplicate photos in my iPhoto library?

    These applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
    iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
    Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported into another.
    PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
    DeCloner - $19.95 - can find duplicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
    DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
    iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
    PhotoDedupo - $4.99 (App Store) -  this app has a "similar" search feature which is like PhotoSweeper's bitmap comparison.  It found all duplicates
    Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free - was able to recognize the duplicated HDR and normal files from an iPhone shooting in HDR
    Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: iphoto has duplicated many photos, how...: Apple Support Communities.
    If you have an iPhone and have it set to keep the normal photo when shooting HDR photos the two image files that are created will be duplicates in a manner of speaking (same image) but there are only twp apps that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates:  PhotoSweeper and Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto.  None of the other apps detected those two files as being duplicates as they look for file name as well as other attributes and the two files from the iPhone have different file names.
    iPLM, however, is the best all around iPhoto utility as it can do so much more than just find duplicates.  IMO it's a must have tool if using iPhoto.

    The external drive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    Are the photos you want to send back to your mac on your iPad, iPod, iPhone saved to the camera roll? If you have photos in other albums (not camera roll) share them to the camera roll.
    Then connect your device via USB and lauch iPhoto. You will see your device as a camera in iPhoto.  Import those photos like you would import from a camera.

  • Spry Slide Show-how to use one size photo for large photo and thumbnail?

    Hi all,
    I'm am using Adobe's Spry Slide Show. I can only use one size photo 640x480px for both the large photo and the thumbnail.
    I changed the size of the small thumnail on the html:
                     <li><a href="Photos/TestPhoto640x480.jpg" width="490" height="367"><img src="Photos/TestPhoto640x480.jpg" width="63" height="47" alt="photos-1.jpg" /></a></li>
    The thumbnail looks fine until you hit Live View or Preview in Browser then photo comes in full size and you can only see the upper left hand corner.
    I assume that the java is doing this. But I have no training in Java.
    How can I change the Java Code so the thumbnail comes in at 63x47px?
    Many thanks.

    Wish I could use scaled down versions of the thumbnails-but I can't.
    Why not?
        img.src = info.src;
        img.style.width =  "490px";<!--Large Photo size on internet-changed from info.width + "px"; to "490px";  *********-->
        img.style.height =  "368px";<!--Large Photo size on internet-changed from info.height + "px"; to "368px";  *******-->
    You're shooting yourself in the foot with this.  It's overriding your HTML and CSS  values.

  • How to use full size photos in iWeb?

    I'm trying to create a web site with photos I've taken, and I want the *full size* photos (1024 x 768, 1280 x 960, etc.) to open when a thumbnail is clicked. The whole point is to publish desktop pictures. iWeb seems intent on downsizing my pictures no matter what I've tried, which is getting very frustrating, and makes them useless for desktop pictures. How do I get iWeb to stop messing with my photos and just do what it's told to do?

    I think I understand what you are trying to do. Perhaps what you could do is to basically have a page with thumbnails of your desktop pictures. Maybe you shouldn't use the readymade photo gallery templates in iWeb...they will just have the whole downsized slideshow as you have seen already. Just choose a relatively blank template page like Movie and delete the movie placeholder. Then make your desktop picture thumbnails. And then maybe you will have several different resolutions of each picture, so you make links under each thumbnail so that when they are clicked they will download the appropriate picture file. I think you just use the "Link to file" option in the Inspector panel. Good luck!
