HT5129 all of my albums in mobile me came from my albums in iPhoto. will mobile me recognize that, or would it place a duplicate copy back to my iPhoto?

all of my ablums in mobile me came from my albums in iPhoto. will mobile me recognize that? or would it migrate duplicates back to my iPhoto? thanks.

OT - Unfortunately, Apple hasn't made it that easy.  They've tried, but didn't get there.  I have been logged out of MMe from the System Preferences for months, and I am still getting the new message now every time I open iPhoto to migrate my albums to iPhoto from MMe.  I deleted those photos (which I had also like fatsojung loaded from iPhoto in the first place, but now have divided some of those to separate libraries for space), and even had deleted the albums from MMe!  Thought I was DONE with MMe months ago!!  Now I'm getting the following message when I try to delete my MMe account from my iPhoto preferences to stop the message:
"31 albums will be removed from your IPHOTO LIBRARY."!!!!  Is that a typo??  Shouldn't it say "MobileMe gallery"?  As those photos are still in my iPhoto library, I certainly do NOT want them deleted from iPhoto!    And why does it still have all 31 albums in there when I deleted them from MMe months ago??  I feel like I'm in a horrible loop that won't let me go!
It's just a pain if I have to let it download all those pictures into my iPhoto trash, then delete them AGAIN.  And frankly I'm a bit worried that it will confuse it with my originals that are still in that library.  Good thing I have Time Machine! 
Any insight as to what actually happens when we click "Remove"?  Thanks.

  • How do you remove photos from an album?

    Hello,
    I can't believe I'm having to ask how to do this in a forum, but I can't work out how to do it so have to:
    How can I remove some images (a number of them just in case it's different from just one) from an album?
    I've tried selecting a number of images then looking uner all the menu options (none that'll do what I want that I can see), control clicking to see the options (none that'll do what I want that I can see), dragging images over into the trash (just creates a new album with the dragged images), pressing delete (nothing), pressing delete while apple key pressed (nothing).
    And also, how c-r-a-p is it that I have to write into a forum to find out the answer to such a simple question?! Quite humilaiating but in fact it should be seen as a flaw in the app as I have tried all reasonable things to delete some sodding images from an album.
    Any ideas how to do such an obviously tricky thing would be very much apprecaited.
    TIA, John
    edit: the album I'm trying to remove images from is a dark blue one with a circle, not a light blue one -- that seems to make a difference. I can remove from light blue ones. I made the album I'm trying to remove from by using "New Smart Album" and choosing before today's date to get all the images in iPhoto into a new album from which I can selectively remove from -- although I can't remove from -- that's what this question is aboute.
    Thanks.

    It's a challenge to imagine what you consider to be "reasonable".
    No need to imagine: the things I tried and consider reasonable to delete some images from an album were listed above what you quoted.
    The concept of "smart albums" would seem, by definition, to exclude the manual addition of images to (or deletion from) such an album.
    Not necessarily but if that's what the situation is OK. Not necessarily because the "smartness" may only take place when the album is created, or on a continual basis. So it's on a continual basis I guess that the smartness takes place. Then it isn't a smart album I want to be using in the first place. I'm trying to simply start off with all images in iPhoto and remove/pick away until I've got the ones I want. Using the smart album at the time seemed like the only quick way to get a new album containing all the images in iPhoto. I tried dragging all the images into a new album before using the smart album to make the new album and it started to take ages so I looked for a quicker way to duplicate all of iPhotos images into a new album.
    So my question is now: what's the quickest way to make a new album of all the images in iPhoto?
    thanks.

  • I just deleted an email account on my iPhone 5s and all my notes just disappeared when I went to access them. Is there a reason why my notes would just disappear? I don't recall linking my notes to the email account I deleted.

    I just deleted an email account on my iPhone 5s and all my notes just disappeared when I went to access them. Is there a reason why my notes would just disappear? I don't recall linking my notes to the email account I deleted.

    I've wondered about this issue as well. I have multiple email accounts, some old ones that I don't use much, others setup for support of particular projects/groups.
    I have no idea how and/or why some notes are linked to a particular account.
    I'd much prefer to have the ability to link all of them to an account of my choosing, thus when emailing from a note tied to a specific email account, that account would automatically be used to perform that email.
    But more importantly, why can't we be allowed to create 'folders' that function the same way as the Finder on my Mac. This file structure could then be accessed by every iOS app and device.
    This type of file structure would be a god-send for the camera roll on my phone. I HATE having all my pictures in one huge clump (cloud?)! After all, who wants to live under a cloud all the time?

  • Creating mobile me album from smart album

    I've created a smart album of approximately 450 photos (my 5 star photos) from an original album of about 2,000 photos. When I try to publish a mobile me album from my smart album of 450, it includes all 2,000 photos and won't let me do it. How do I do this???

    OK....I just tried working with an album that didn't have stacks, and I'm having the same problem. When I try and make a separate album, or mobile me album, with just the 5 star photos, it automatically includes all of the photos when creating the album. So I don't think that is always the problem.
    Selecting a subset of images in an album and making a new album from just those images works as long as there are no stacks involved. Where did the images in the album come from?
    Do this select a project that has no stacks in it. Note the number of images displayed at the bottom of the window. Select half note the number of images selected. Make a new album from the selection. How many images in the album?
    Now in that album select half again and make an album, Again how many images in the new window?
    I'm betting you still have stacks involved in this somewhere. You really need to step back and try the steps I've outlined. Start with a project with no stacks and see what you get.

  • I purchased an album and it has disappered from my iPod however other purchased items are showing. How can I get the album back? It is not on my computer on the itunes library due to the computer wiping all contents.

    My ipod touch lost all its data due to my computer crashing and having to be rebooted.
    This resulted in all software being wiped - including iTunes. Therefore, I lost all my music, apps etc on my library on the computer. I then synced my iPod into the computer which then updated the ipod software and then it cleared all my music.
    However, I managed to find my music on the purchased list and was able to re download it.
    Although, I'm aware that one album did not apper on the purchased playlist - I have an email to prove that I purchased this album however, it is not appearing to allow for me to download it.
    I am pretty sure that this is not the only album but due to the amount of music I previously had on my iPod it is difficult to tell what is missing.
    Is there anything I can do to get all my previous music back?
    Is there anything I can do by contacting Apple to see if they can help?
    Would greatly appreciate any help whatsoever! Just about pulling my hair out - due to no available phone calls until next thursday and NO email address to contact!

    Thanks very much I have contacted them via this. Just hope they respond quickly- rather annoing! Greatly appreciated though

  • When I rip a CD to iTunes. All goes well until I click on All Albums. If there are other artists named with the Title Artist they are shown as different albums so I end up with 16 albums containing 1 track instead of 1 Album with 16 tracks. Can I fix this

    When I rip a CD to iTunes all goes well until I click on All Albums. If there are other artists named as well as the Title Artist, I end up with what appears as 16
    Albums with 1 track instead of 1 Album with 16 tracks. Can I fix this ?

    Had a similar problem with two tracks from a cd being segregated in a separate list, but with the same album title and artwork as the other 19 tracks. I found that by double clicking the artist field next to the album icon you can then edit that info.  In your case it sounds as if you might want to erase the artist info altogether. Once you have done that, all the tracks magically group together, as they should have done in the first place. Oh there might be a dialog box first, asking if you really want to do this.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why does my music from one album show up as two separate albums: one with all the songs in it, and another with two or three. Why is it that when i delete the incomplete album it takes the same songs out of the complete album also?

    When I first imported music from my CDs onto my iTunes library, all the songs appeared, but those with the album artist and guest/additional artists they appeared in their own album under the same album name. After searching through iTunes help and support, I learned how to put all the songs under the same album (part of a compalition) and add the additional songs information, artwork, lyrics, etc. After getting all the music (imported from my CDs) onto the iTunes library and in their album. I synced my music onto my iPhone. (My iPhone is a 3GS)
         Once the music was on my iPhone i noticed that the albums appeared in 2s again. One was the complete album with all the songs, song info, etc. together (solo tracks and/or one with multiple artists) and another album of the same name, artwork, etc. with 2-4 of the songs from that album. Since all I saw need for was to have the completed album on my iPhone, I deleted the album with only 2-4 of the songs. When I went back and selected the completed album, all the songs I had deleted from the incomplete album were also deleted from the completed album too! I just couldn't figure out why it did that and my my friends with iPods and iPhones said they didn't know what caused it either. So now I'm here with the idea how to fix this problem.
         If anyone has a solution to this problem, please reply. It will be greatly appreciated.

    I'm not sure why this happens, but I found a workaround. Below the album title it will list the artist(s). The issue seems to happen when there are multiple artists. For example, an Album titled "Over the Sea to Skye" has The Chieftains and James Galway as artists. Some tracks (for whatever reason) will list only one of these and result in the playlist showing what appears to be multiple albums. You can click on the artists and it will highlight. Paste in what is appearing on the other "albums" and it will then show as one:
    Hope that is somewhat clear enough to help. Doesn't fix whatever the issue is but it is a workaround. For me this is only happening with CD's that I have imported.

  • Nano3rdgen Copying playlist from itunes to ipod and it says it can't copy certain songs to ipod cos of file type.These problem songs all from same album, all ACC file type and all copied fine when I copied the album itself few weeks ago-help!

    When copying playlist from itunes to nano3rd message comes saying 9 of songs can't be copied to ipod cos of file type. These 9 are all from same album, all ACC and all copied fine when I copied the album itselm some weeks ago.  Rest of playlist was ACC too.  P.S. album is a CD-R copied version-is this an issue? HELP I AM DESPAIRING!

    I never laughed in all my life. Here I was, inserting the cd Dance with Me, thinking it's not going to copy the whole thing. yeah, right.
    Sure, it prompted me, Do I want to replace the songs, so of course I said "no, don't replace the songs". and guess what it did. It copied the whole cd (at least I got my two songs).
    I went into the itunes library, and sure enough, all the songs were there twice. So what did my intelligent brain think of? I just unchecked the doubled songs and stuck my ipod into my computer and it synched up and I got what I wanted.
    Now what did I do wrong when it prompted me. I clicked on "don't replace" and it replaced them anyway.
    Am I dumb? or is itunes stupid?
    thanks, Melody

  • When creating a book how can I get all the photos from an album to show up in the order they were in the album?

    When creating a book in iphoto, how can I get all the photos from the album I want to use to show up in the order that they are in the album?  When I tried to use the option to add my own photos instead of having the program "flow" them, they showed up all mixed up.

    iPhoto puts them in the book in chronological order.  So to get your photos from an album into an iPhoto book in the same order you will need to use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option and set them all to the same date with a 1 minute time difference between each.

  • Having arranged some scanned pictures in an album in I-Photo how can I keep them in the order I have chosen when I move the album. They all have the scan date and not the taken date and move to new positions if I move them from one album to another.

    Having arranged some scanned pictures in an album in I-Photo how can I keep them in the order I have chosen when I move the album. They all have the scan date and not the taken date and move to new positions if I move them from one album to another.
    Is there any way to re-number them in the order I have chosen so that they can then be sorted by number? The scans are all from pre-digital images that I wish to move to a photobook and I don't want to have to organise them twice!
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    I was a bit short, Chris, sorry. It is limited, what can be posted, when typing on an iPad.
    Now I am back on my Mac. I meant the following:  Batch Change the date for a large range of photos, that should have a date stepped in increments.
    Select all Photos at once and use the command "Photos > Batch Change".
    Then set the date for the first photo and select an increment, e.g. one minute.
    Now all photos will get a new date assigned, incremented by one minute, in the sequence you have selected. So you will be able to sort them by date.  This way it will be unnecessary to change the titles or filenames.

  • How do I get my iPhone to play all albums by any given artist in consecutive album track order like it does on an iPod?

    When I select an artist on my iPod Classic and then select "all albums," I can play multiple albums consecutively without losing the track order of each individual album.  On my iPhone 4S, however, when I select an artist there's only the option to select "all songs," and it lists all the tracks alphabetically and plays them in that order, making it impossible to listen to one album followed by another.  It isn't a problem if I select one album at a time, as the tracks then remain in their original order from the album, but it won't keep the proper orderings if I want to play all of the music by an artist and select "all songs."  Is there some way to change it so that when I view all tracks by an artist I can see them and play them in their original intended track order, not in the alphabetical listing order? 

    Delete the file and re-download again.

  • All Mobile Apps gone from iTunes - Still on mobile devices.

    When installing Lion and Cloud the other day the Cloud folks at Apple took me through a laborious provess of changing my Apple ID. Hours on the phone.
    For many years my Apple ID has been my everyday email address .... now I was being told I must change it and create a new me.com account. I refused because I already  had a me.com account and wanted to use that. This took a bunch of hours on the phone to get my mobile devices cloud synching with my current me.com account rather than having some wild new yet another me.com  account and Apple ID. All got in sync finally ... that is my calendars, notes, and contacts.
    So, now I acquire an app using iTunes on the computer. All my Apps are now missing in iTunes and the new one is dimmed in iTunes and does not sync to my Mobile device. Obviously, even though Apple said different ID's was OK and.would not affect anything... I believe having 2 Apple ID's is the root of this problem.... maybe not.
    My store Mac purchases still, I believe, uses my original ID as does my music. Having to create multiple ID's ts not new. Several years ago when iTunes was relatively new I was asked to create another Apple ID for the iTunes Store and the 2 ID's raised havock placing song purchases here and there... it took months to get that corrected. So, I screamed when told I again had to change my devices to a second, me.com Apple ID... having one for some things another for others. That's a catastrophy waiting to happen... if ever there was one.
    So... apps are acquired.... they remain dim in iTunes and all my apps in iTunes are gone. They all remain on my mobile devices.
    I will not give up my domain name email address I have used for years and years... and should not have too! I'm sure others want to reatain their domain mane email addresses for daily use as well.

    Well I feel like a real idiot because I just realized my problem is that Applications was no longer checked in my Preferences to Show. For some reason the update unchecked it, plus it wants to run the Setup every time I start now.
    But at least my Apps are there.
    I do have the manual, btw. Thanks.

  • I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build.  The same call works fine when running on the device

    I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device (iPhone) using debug build. When running with a release build, the result handler is never called (nor is the fault handler called). Viewing the BlazeDS logs in debug mode, the call is received and send back with data. I've narrowed it down to what seems to be a data size issue.
    I have targeted one specific data call that returns in the String value a string length of 44kb, which fails in the release build (result or fault handler never called), but the result handler is called as expected in debug build. When I do not populate the String value (in server side Java code) on the object (just set it empty string), the result handler is then called, and the object is returned (release build).
    The custom object being returned in the call is a very a simple object, with getters/setters for simple types boolean, int, String, and one org.23c.dom.Document type. This same object type is used on other other RemoteObject calls (different data) and works fine (release and debug builds). I originally was returning as a Document, but, just to make sure this wasn't the problem, changed the value to be returned to a String, just to rule out XML/Dom issues in serialization.
    I don't understand 1) why the release build vs. debug build behavior is different for a RemoteObject call, 2) why the calls work in debug build when sending over a somewhat large (but, not unreasonable) amount of data in a String object, but not in release build.
    I have't tried to find out exactly where the failure point in size is, but, not sure that's even relevant, since 44kb isn't an unreasonable size to expect.
    By turning on the Debug mode in BlazeDS, I can see the object and it's attributes being serialized and everything looks good there. The calls are received and processed appropriately in BlazeDS for both debug and release build testing.
    Anyone have an idea on other things to try to debug/resolve this?
    Platform testing is BlazeDS 4, Flashbuilder 4.7, Websphere 8 server, iPhone (iOS 7.1.2). Tried using multiple Flex SDK's 4.12 to the latest 4.13, with no change in behavior.
    Thanks!

    After a week's worth of debugging, I found the issue.
    The Java type returned from the call was defined as ArrayList.  Changing it to List resolved the problem.
    I'm not sure why ArrayList isn't a valid return type, I've been looking at the Adobe docs, and still can't see why this isn't valid.  And, why it works in Debug mode and not in Release build is even stranger.  Maybe someone can shed some light on the logic here to me.

  • How do I get all the songs from an album to show in the album view?  Currently, if an album lists the artist plus a guest artist, those are shown separately and appear to be two different albums on my iPod.  How do I get all the songs on that album togeth

    How do I get all the songs from an album to show in the album view?  Currently, if an album lists the artist plus a guest artist, those are shown separately and appear to be two different albums on my iPod.  How do I get all the songs on that album together on my iPod?  If the album is a collaboration wtih many artists, each sond may appear as a separate album.

    I used to have this problem.
    First, you need to go back on iTunes
    you need to go to each of the songs that are having this problem
    Click the album so all the songs drop down
    Right click the songs that have this problem
    Click ' Get info '
    Click the tab that says " info '
    The box that says ' album artist ' should probably be empty (correct me if I'm wrong)
    Click it and type the artist of the entire album, NOT the songs guest artist
    as such,
    ARTIST
    JAY-Z Feat. Justin Timberlake
    ALBUM ARTIST
    JAY-Z
    These should be separate for each artist
    If you write the same album artists for each song by that artist, all the songs should be on 1 album
