HT4221 Iphoto sorting on ipad

"If you are not using iPhoto or Aperture on Mac OS X, and if your device is using the latest software, it sorts photos in ascending order by the Date Modified." I am using OSX and photo's are still sorted by date modified - makes the product useless for showing photo's any solution.

Same thing here, very annoying. The sort order selected in iPhoto does not carry over, it always sorts by "Date Modified" on my iPhone and iPad.
This appears to be a bug in the current iPhoto version (9.4.2) since what Apple's support article says is not working:
"If you are using iPhoto or Aperture for Mac OS X, your photos automatically sort on your device in the same order in which they are sorted in iPhoto or Aperture. Changes made to the sorting of your pictures in your iPhoto or Aperture albums and events are reflected on the device after syncing."
This is just not happening. I submitted this bug/feedback here:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html
Would suggest you do the same in case you havent' yet.

You are welcome.
Sorting and organizing photos on IOS devices is one of the things that really need to be improved. It looks like the developers simply did not expect the users to want to keep large photo libraries on an IOS device, where the ordering would matter. I'd send feedback to the developer team, so that they see, what the users want and need:

IPhoto access from iPads

OK, maybe a simple question, maybe not, but I've been unable to find a clear answer.
The queation is easy: is there a way that I can access my iPhoto library from iPads/iPhones on the same network (MAC is wired). I'm not looking to edit or store photos, just to view thm and occasionally move some to the iDevices camera roll or local library for sharing, emailing,etc.
I am looking for a local networked solution and not interested in moving all of the photos onto iCloud.
thanks, B

You cannot access your entire photo library via a "networked" solution. The only way to have access to a single library from all devices is to store that library in a single accessible place - i.e., a cloud of some sort.
You do have a way for all of your Camera Roll photos from all of your devices shared with all of your other devices via Photo Stream. You can also share selected photos between all devices using a Shared Photo Stream sent to your own email address.
I presume you are already familiar with Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams?

Manage iPhoto pix from iPad?

Hi all. We just got an iPad 64GB. We have about 30GB of photos on our Mac with iPhoto '08.
Our goal is to be able to download/sync the photos from iPhoto onto the iPad and manage them on the iPad so we don't have to sit in front of the Mac...we can just sit on the couch. When I say "manage", I mean very simple things like delete a photo or rename an Event or copy/move pix from 1 Event to another. No editing. It would be cool if we could upload the Events to Shutterfly from the iPad instead of the Mac after we manage it. So if I delete a few pix off the iPad, they will get deleted on on iPhoto later when I connect/sync with my Mac. We will never hook up a camera to the iPad so we don't have to worry about iPhoto stuff vs. iPad native.
Ideas? I've looked around the Apple website and there is no mention of this kind of feature. I also do not believe there is an iLife for iPad yet...
Thanks so much in advance!

Download "Photo Sort" from Apps Store ($1.99 I believe). I just did and am still trying it out but it seems to have most if not all of what you want to do.

How do I delete photos from iPhoto on my iPad?

How do I delete photo's from iPhoto on my iPad?

Acually King Penguin I think this works in Photo not iPhoto on the ipad. All my comments refer to iPhoto on the iPad, not iPhoto on a laptop or desktop MAC. I find iPhoto on the iPad to be very unfinished application. As near as I can tell when you make an edit in iPhoto it creates a copy of your photo that it puts who knows where. If you actually want an album that you can get out of the black hole called iPhoto you have to save those photos in camera role. the steps are:
1, Switch to edit mode
2. Select the photo to be 'deleted' (actually hidden not deleted)
3 . Touch the X icon on the bottom of the screen and that will hde the photo
Easy enough but why not use the same well chosen tools used in Photos? Why make it different so that you have to experiment or refer to the non-existent "iPhoto on iPad manual"?
But now comes the real fun part. Suppose you have edited a number of photos and hidden a bunch more and you want an album of the editied and un-hidden photos to use as you see fit. In my case I am totally unintersted in creating a Flicker account. I don't want to tweet them or facebook them. I want to get them out of the iPhoto black hole. Here are the steps I found. I would be thrilled if someone has found a better way. What I found is multistep very slow process for each photo to be added to "Camera Roll". Camera Roll is the way to get Photos accessable in Photo and thereby available outside the black hole.
1.Go to Edit mode (upper right corener)
2. Select All Photos (upper left corner)
3. Choose a photo out of the photo matrix.
4. touch the Share icon. that's the one that looks like the select icon in Photos (bad choice Apple. i kept thinking I mucst be doing something wrong since it sort of looked like select bu wasn't).
5. Touch Camera Roll
6. Touch Selected
7. Wait. This is a slow process
8. Touch done
Repeat steps 3 through 8 for each idividual photo.
I gave up after 13 out of 60 photos. Way, way too slow. it would have take over an hour to do this six step process for the 60 photos. Instead load the photos from the flash card in my PC. Use Photoshop or Picasa and forget using m iPad for on the fly editing and showing photos which is what I had hoped to do.

I am trying to sync my iPhoto to my iPad from my Mac but iTunes keeps telling me that my iPhoto Library can't be found.

I am trying to sync my iPhoto to my iPad from my Mac but iTunes keeps telling me that my iPhoto Library can't be found. I obviously can see that I have many photos and events so I am not sure why I'm getting this message.I have all the current software and have been playing around with it for hours and can't figure out the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

im having the same problem!

After upgrading to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5 my shared photo streams seem to contain no photos when seen in iPhoto. From iPad the streams are fine. How can I get them to be recognized by iPhoto again?

Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

How do I move 3741 photos in iPhoto on my iPad to iPhoto on my iMac?

How do I move 3741 photos in iPhoto on my iPad to iPhoto on my iMac?
My iMac lost all of the photos in the iPhoto library about 3 OSX updates ago (current system 10.9.1) but they recently appeared on my iPad. I have looked at all of the iphoto libraries on my iMac (3) and one contains 419 photos, one contains 3 photos and the main library has place holders with description information for 3741 photos but no photos. My iPad has all of the photos in iPhoto. How do I move them?

The answer is no. There is no originals (or masters folder) that I can find. Below are the following folders in iPhoto:
Events Folder: 71 place holders with decriptions including 6 recent photos
Photos Folders: 3741 Place Holders with descriptions
Photo Stream: 1 photo
Last 18 Months: 157 photos
Last Import: 1 photo
Cloud: 229 photos
1 Album: 3 placeholders with descriptions
Slideshow: 1 placeholder with description
Many of the actual photos are recent and are duplicated in one of the abovefolders

IPhoto, sort by date is not a true date/time sort

In iPhoto, sort by date is not a true date/time sort. If you have two cameras with there own naming convention iPhoto sorts filename by date separating the two cameras in the view. Is there a way to sort by DATE&TIME ONLY?

Using two cameras using iPhoto to upload pictures.
Both cameras are set to the correct time and date.
Connect camera ONE filenames IMGP0101
By default:
No event name
Split events checked
Select import 12 photos
Creates events:
Untitled event December 27, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 28, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 29, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 30, 2013
Connect camera TWO filenames IMG_1101
By default:
No event name
Split events checked
Select import 12 photos
Creates events:
Untitled event December 28, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 29, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 30, 2013
Now I have 2 events for each of December 28, 29 and 30 they are not all under the same event name. My only option is to click and drag the pictures from the second set of events to the first set of events then they are in order. This is a real pain to do. There needs to be a way to reset the event dates so all pictures from both cameras end up in the right event date.

Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.

Only some of my photo's are syncing from iPhoto to my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV.
It may be my own fault due to learning Aperture and playing around with the locations of the Master Files.
The thing I don't understand is that when in iPhoto all thumbnails of all photo's are able to be enlarged / edited etc. When a thumbnail is clicked on there is no gray triangle with an exclamation mark indicating that the link to the original photo can't be found. I would have thought this was ok for syncing to take place.
When trying to sync through iTunes to my iPad for example (after some photo's have been synced) a window comes up saying "Some of your photos, including the photo “_MG_3820.jpg”, were not copied to the iPad “Mark Harlen’s iPad” because they cannot be displayed on your iPad".
I thought this may be due to lack of memory space but my Apple TV (which has the same issue but not the same warning window) has over over 100 free GB's so that can't be it.
When I did a test and re imported one photo that wasn't being synced to my other devices, that photo consequently was then synced so maybe it has something to do with the path through iPhoto to the original files.
Is there any way I can re establish these links with out having to create an entire new iPhoto library from the originals (I have a lot of albums and have done a lot of editing etc and don't and want to have to do it all again).
I look forward to you help and advice
Mark

Thanks for the advice but it didn't seem to work
I've decided to try ditching iPhoto and orgainising, syncing my photo's to all devices from Aperture
I have so far imported over 1200 photo's (relocating and renaming the master files as well) and find that when syncing through iTunes only 209 photo's are listed. The Projects/Albums are there but some indicate that there are 0 photo's in them when I know other wise (at least according to whats happing in Aperture)
I'm starting to suspect it may be a computer problem
Any thoughts?
Regards
Mark
PS: Just after posting this I restarted my computer, went into iTunes and my Apple TV started to sync. It was now syncing 854 photo's not 209 as before.

Organizing Albums in iPhoto on the iPad/iPhone

I have an iPad Air and an iPhone 5, and prefer to have my photos arranged by Albums, Not "events" But in iPhoto on these, when I look at the album view it arranges the albums alphabetically, whereas I want to have them arranged by topic - the topic organization I choose.
I edit and create the albums in iPhoto on my Mac, and have them organized the way I want there. Why doesn't it keep that arrangement of the albums? I can't find out any way to rearrange them the way I want them.
Why can't we organize things the way we want?
By the way, it is much easier to edit and organize o nthe mac, with its bigger screen and extra screens.
Also, is there a way to have Photos, or iPhoto (on the iPad & iPhone) access the keywords and titles I have given them in iPhoto on the Mac?
Thanks

Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
iPhoto 8 (09) and earlier- run the options indicated
iPhoto 9 (11) and later- run Option #4 to rebuild the database
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager (iPhoto 8 or earlier or IPhoto 11 and later) and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the
File ➙ Rebuild Library (iPhoto 8 or earlier)
or
Library ➙ Rebuild Library (iPhoto 9 or later)
menu option to rebuild the library.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Streaming Iphoto slideshow from IPad II to Apple TV 2

Hello all,
my englsh is not very well, but I'm try to explain my problem.
I installed the app IPhoto on my IPad II. It works very well, In IPhoto I activate tv-synchronisation to get my IPad screen via apple tv 2 on my tv, but no screnn or picture is seen. In a diashow I heared the music. I also does'nt see the airplay button or sign. Thats all. So I need a liitle bit of help or is it my configuration.
By the way: in other apps on my Ipad like photo, music, video and so on airplay works very good. It`s the same netowrk an so on.
Thanks
appler00

Many apps don't natively support that audio out to the apple tv, (spotify, pandora, ect) Normally the work around is to get it going with the music app then back out of the music and open the other app (pandora, crackle) and the audio will switch. As far as getting the audio initially try running the music on the ipad then toggle airplay on and skip back to the initial song. At this point if you still have no sound toggle screen mirroring as well all while letting the song run on the ipad.

What program do I use to access Iphoto from my Ipad to my windows computer

I am trying to organize my photos via Iphoto on my Ipad, but I keep getting messages to plug my Ipad into my computer
to delete "events" and "albums" that I do not want - and also to share my photos via Facebook. I have plugged into ITunes,
but my Iphoto app does not come up and I cannot see my photos. Please help -- very frustrating!!

Your windows machine has a library called my pictures. You can organize your pictures there. Put your events into subdirectories as you want them, then sync those directories to the pad.
You can get pictures from the pad to the computer when you are plugged in. Open 'my computer' and the pad should show up as a device, and from there you can select which pictures to upload to the computer.
I do not think the albums you create on the pad will migrate up to the computer, but subdirectories you set up on the computer will sync to the pad as events.

I am unable to sync my iPhoto with my iPad and iPhone - error message (-50). All other syncs (mail iCal etc OK). Can anyone suggest a fix please ?
