  • How do you delete any pictures from photo area?

    How do I delete ANY photos from Ipad, either in albumn or camera roll???  Just bought it last night.  I did a sync and ALL MY COMPUTER PICS were transferred to all devices.
    Thanks for any advice to come!

    Photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view.
    Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from on your computer and then re-syncing - they can't be deleted directly on the iPad.

  • How do you save a picture from email to the iPhoto?

    How do you save a picture from email to the iPhoto?

    Click and hold on the Save button, and a menu appears, listing each attached file’s name along with a Save As button. Select any individual file, and you’ll save just that attachment to disk. But the really nice feature is the final menu item—Add to iPhoto. That’s right; with one button click-and-hold, you can add all of a message’s attached images to iPhoto.

  • How do you remove a picture from a theme?

    Hi all gurus.
    This must be the most silly question so far in the forum but I have to ask again: How do you remove a picture from a theme?
    I uploaded a background picture for the Masthead Function Area but now I want to remove it. Since the correspodning field is blank when you go into the editor you can't erase the picture's URL
    What you can do is to browse to, and choose, a new picture and then erase the URL in the field. The mentioned area is then actually emptied and the color set in the field "Background Color of Masthead Function" is shown.
    But, and here is the problem, when you save the theme the picture is back again! Isn't there the possibility to show the background color, for which there is a field, instead of a picture? Do I really have to upload a picture just containing the color I want to have??? If so, that must be one of the most stupid functionaliteis I have seen in the portal so far, indeed...
    I'm most grateful for every suggestion of how to solve this in a decent way and not the idiotic "replace picture with another picture" way.
    Best regards
    Benny

    Hi Raghu.
    Unfortunately it didn't help. Their solution with writing "none" in the field is only applicable for those objects where you have a field determening ways of showing the object. There you have the different behaviours like "repeat", "non-repeat" and "none" and there you can write it directly in the field.
    The field of which I am talking doesn't have these options and hence not "none". I still tried it though but it didn't work, the picture was back after saving the theme.
    Best regards

    How do you delete unwanted pictures from the photo library on the iPhone 4s? The ones in the Daisy icon...

    Pictures in Photo Library are synced from your computer and must be deleted from there, followed by re-sync.  Photos in Camera Roll can be deleted from your iPhone directly (tap arrow in top right, tap the pictures you want to delete, press the Delete button).

  • How do you copy a picture in photos?

    How do you copy a picture in photos? When I right click on them it doesn't give you the option to copy and when I click edit, copy, it does nothing.

    I've copied pictures from iPhoto before and its worked perfectly fine. Just can't seem to find a way to do so on Photos.
    I my Photos version it works to select a photo and then use the "Edit" menu.
    Edit > Copy ⌘C  or pressing the key combination ⌘C
    There is no visible confirmation, but the photo will be in the Clipboard.
    I cannot test this with Word.  But I can insert the copied photo from the clipboard into Pages or Keynote documents by using ⌘V

  • How can you select which pictures to upload from camera? plus facebook ?

    Is there any way to select which pictures from your digital camera you would like to upload on to iphoto? Or is the only way to upload all of the pictures on your camera? I have 214 pictures on my camera and 210 of them are already in iphoto...i only want to upload the new 4!
    Another question..
    I am trying to upload my pictures on to Facebook, and they are significantly smaller than the pictures I uploaded via my PC. How can I get them to upload at normal size?
    THANKS!

    Re: the FaceBook problem
    This sounds like you're uploading the Thumbnails that iPhoto uses to display the pics in the iPhoto Window not the pics themselves. Have you been uploading from the Data folder in the iPhoto Library Folder?
    There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
    1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size.
    3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • How do you add a picture from the internet to Keynote

    I am trying to do a Keynote Presentation but don't know how to add pictures from internet

    Simplest way:
    1.Save the image you want from the internet on your desktop. Then just drag and drop it on your presentation.
    2. If you want, use a photo masterslide and drop the picture you want onto the standard picture the theme has.
         Then you can resize it if needed.
    3. Or: Insert -> Choose... -> and select your photo from your directory.

  • How do you choose a picture from your iPhoto library for a contact in Address Book ?

    Hello,
    I have contacts on my Address Book application for which I would like to set a picture from my iPhoto library.
    However, when double-clicking the picture square and select Choose..., I cannot access any pictures from my library. I can't even double click the library to show package content.
    I would really dislke having to drag each picture on my desktop and I believe there is a way to easily access the iPhoto library for this. I just couldn't find the solution.
    Thanks in advance,
    Julian

    I did it like this: First, you should have assigned names to Faces in iPhoto - these names should match the respective ones you use in addressbook (like John Smith each time, not John Smith in iPhoto and Johnny S. in Addressbook). Then, in Addressbook, double-click the square for the photo as you did, but then do not click on Choose but rather on the small Faces icon on the bottom of the popup window. Addressbook should now provide you with all the "faces" iPhoto has for this name.

  • How can you stop a picture from going to Photostream?

    Hi,
    Please pardon the delicate nature of this question..it is not meant to be salacious.
    However, I cannot figure out WHY anyone would use photostream. Like any number of normal people, my IOS device might ocassionally take pictures that I do not want to be uploaded to photostream, and certainly NOT shared with other family devices.
    As I understand it, If I have Photostream enabled, any time I take a picture with my IOS device, I have NO WAY to stop it from going immediately to photostream or being synced on other computers or IOS devices?!?
    Given this beheavior, and my understandign of how it works, why would anyone ever sync their photos to Photostream?
    Aren't there a LOT of instances where you might be using your phone to take pictures that you do not want shared with family devices?
    For example, I use my iPhone for research in stores...I see a gift idea, I take a quick picture. Now I have the price, the name of the item, where I found it, and all that great info. I do this ALL THE TIME. However, I certanly wouldn't want my gift research to get synced with my home mac, where someone might see it and ruin a surprise.
    I have not yet enabled Photostream because there doesn't seem to be any way I have read about to Stop a photo from being shared, other than to simply never use the service.
    IS there a workaround?

    What you probably need to remember is that the iCloud account is intended to be a personal account not one that is shared between all devices belonging to the same family.
    If you have no use for photo stream at all, then I suggest you do as you do now, and keep it turned off all of the time. If however you have occasional uses for it, photos taken on your device will only sync with photo stream when photo stream is turned on, so you'll have the ability to take photos without them being synced to all your devices, if you wish to do so.

  • How do you delete a picture from iPhoto?

    I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro and just added some pictures from an SD card to iPhoto to see how it works. However I can't work out how to delete a photo from the album. I only want to remove one so how do I do it?

    Albums are logical things holding pointers to the photo in the library
    Deleting a photo from an album does just that  it removes the photo from the album
    To delete it from the computer select it in an event, press the delete key, empty the iPhoto trash (iPhoto menu ==> empty trash) and empty the system trash

  • How do you select multiple emails from the contacts book.

    Using 10.8.4. I would like to use mail and select multiple email address' from the contacts book to send the same message to multiple persons. I thought I used to be able to select more than one at a time from my contacts book. Am I crazy or did they change the way it works from the previous version of software.
    Or, could you go to the contacts book and email from there. Either way it seems like it was easy to do and now I have to select one at a time and keep going back to the contacts/address book for another name.

    Hi shelereric,
    Once you open a new message, you should be able to just start typing the first letters of the contact's name, and Mail should give you a dropdown to select from:
    So, you should not have to go back and forth between your contacts and mail....anyone in your address book should show up on the dropdown as well as anyone you have received emails from or sent emails to even if they are not in your contacts....
    Is that not what is happening for you? Are you using the Mail app on the Mac?
    Cheers,

  • How do you take a picture from the photo library and put it on your desktop?

    I want to be able to take a picture from my photo libray, and drop it on my desktop to be able to access it immediately. Is this possible?

    There are lots of ways of moving files. 
    A simple and popular way to copy files.

    For syncing pc or mac folders to iPad applications.
    "Using SugarSync, you simply designate folders that you want to “sync” to the cloud and it keeps everything in sync anytime you make changes.  This is the way cloud storage should be done and especially if you are using your iPad for buisness or for school."
    The only potential downside is that so many apps for the iPhone/iPad come with Dropbox sync built in which makes it extremely convenient.
