I am organizing my mom's iPhoto. Can I delete her albums and then recreate them so they are accurate? Will I lose all the pics or will they stay in the photo library?

I am in the process of organizing my mom's iPhoto. She has so many albums that have incorrect photos in them that I would like to delete the albums and start over. If I do that and then organize her events accurately, can I then recreate the albums correctly?
Thanks

Yes, as long as you're sure it's albums you're deleting and not Events. lf you delete an Event you're deleting the photos as well.

I previoulsy have adding many CD to my iTunes music library and then synched them with my iPhone so that I have all music in both places. And I could the CDs in iTunes or iPhone with no problems. Recently, my iTunes "sees" the music but won't play it. Why

I have added many CD to my iTunes music library and then synched them with my iPhone so that I have all music in both places. Then I could the play them in iTunes or iPhone with no problems. Recently, my iTunes "sees" the music library but won't play any of it becuase "the original could not be found". If I attach my iPhone, then it pays them through the iPhone, but still not through the library in iTunes. How can I get the music library on my iPhone to transfer (i.e. restore it) to iTunes? I have iPhone 4S but have not upgraded to the iOS 6, and have not had any problems until last week. Help! Thanks.

Check the manual for whatever backup program you used, or, if you just copied the files over, copy them that.
How to restore data to your PC is outside the scope of these forums.

I want to delete a few contacts, apps, pics etc from my iphone, but when I delete and connect to my laptop they sync and come back again. How can I delete those items and not get them back when I connect my iphone to my laptop?

Also where exactly on the laptop is teh data stored.
Thank you!!

go to 'Edit' in the menu bar. Then choose 'Preferences'.
you'll see a pop-up and there's a tab called 'Devices' there. If you click that, you will be able to check a box that says 'prevent automatic syncing for iPods, iPads and iPhones' or something like that.
Hope this helps
NB: if you don't even see the menu bar that has options like 'File, Edit, View, etc', first click the black/white square button on the top left of your screen, and then click 'show menu bar'. It should pop right up.
Good luck

Can you edit AVCHD movies and then export them as AVCHD losslessly?

As the title suggests, is it possible to create an AVCHD project in iMovie with AVCHD files (1920x1080 60p) edit them and then export them losslessly with a new Imac? I know of only one program that can do that and that one doesn't allow anything other than simple cuts & trims. You can't add music or any sophisticated editing.

No.

When I create an album and then try to watch it in slideshow, I get only a black screen with a white title. No photos come up. Also when I click on an individual photo in the album, I get a white exclamation point on a black background but no big photo.

When I create an album of photos and then open the album and try to watch it by selecting "slideshow" I get only a black screen. The white title comes up briefly but then no photos, only a black screen. Also when I go back to the album and click on a thumbnail, up comes a big white exclamation point on a black background instead of the enlarged photo. Any idea what's going on?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Downloading content to use with apple tv on television, can you download multiple shows and then watch them later or just one at a time, watch then download the next one?? If multiple downloads are possible how does one do it?

I just received apple tv as a present this Christmas and the shows take too long to download when I want to watch them. Can I download multiple shows overnight or during day and watch them in the evening?? If so how?

The ATV stores no content.
Content can be downloaded to iTunes on a computer and then streamed to the ATV via HomeSharing.

Can we delete network header and then use it again under a WBS?

Hi All,
I have an issue where user wrongly create network header and activity not under WBS/project. The situation :
There is a project / WBS called ABCD. User require a network header ID called RSKA005100S1 under the WBS. However, user create the master network header RSKA005100S1 not under WBS. How can we assign network RSKA005100S1 to be assigned in the WBS ABCD, coz when i tried to create the same network, it says order already exist.
CHeers,
Nies

Hil,
i hope network header is not released and no cost posting done in your case !!
Select Network Header RSKA005100S1 and goto assignments tab. assign the WBSE ABCD here, then system shifts the network header assignment to ABCD automatically. No need to delete existing one and creating new one under ABCD.
Hope this helps you !

I set up iPhoto v9.6 to copy items to library. Now I would like to change it to not copy. Do I have to start completely over? I have 106GB of photos and tags in my library. Will I lose all that work?

I set up iPhoto v9.6 to copy items to library. Now I would like to change it to not copy. Do I have to start completely over? I have 106GB of photos and tags in my library. Will I lose all that work? Originally I thought by copying items to library I would be making an exact copy of my originals and that would serve as a duplicate or backup copy. My originals are on my EHD#1 and my iPhoto library is on my EHD#2. But now I realize that I can not view my iPhoto library unless my EHD#2 is connected to my computer (duh!!) So now I would like to NOT copy times to library and I want to have the library in the Pictures folder on my laptop HD. So I guess my question is do I have to start completely over? Is there some way to salvage all the work I've done so far?

Yes you would have to start over from scratch.
But you should really think this through very carefully. Experienced users do not recommend iPhoto used in this mode, and with very good reasons. Among them
1. It's more work for exactly no gain
2. It's unreliable - especially - when the library is on one volume and the photos are on another. One change to the path between the files and the library and you'll be reconnecting every photo in the Library back to the database, one by one.

How can I print multiple copies of the same photo onto one sheet of paper? Do I have to Duplicate the photo in iPhoto and then select them all?

How can I print multiple copies of the same photo onto one sheet of paper? Do I have to Duplicate the photo in iPhoto and then select them all?

no - you simply have to select the option to print mucliples of a photo on a page
select the photo and go to the file menu ==> print - select the printer, paper size and print size and click customize - in the tool bar click on the settings icon (the gear looking thingy) and select "multiple of the same photo per page" and the preview will reflect this option showing a full page of the selected size photos

Select your My Book Studio for Mac icon on your Desktop and type Command + i to bring up its Info pane. Check the formatting. It should look like this:
If it's not formatted as such you'll need to reformat it after backing up what's on there now.

IPhoto can't delete photos from iPhone 6

Hello Everybody.
I just wondered why my iPhoto can't delete the photos from my iPhone 6.
When i have imported the photos from the iPhone, i get the opportunity to delete photos from iPhone device, but when i press delete nothing happends on my iPhone, and all the photo's are still in the camera roll.
My mac and iPhone 6 is running the latest version of iOS and Yosemite.
iOS 8.1.3.
Please advice.
Best regards.
Thanks.

Try restarting your Mac and the phone
Or give Image Capture (in your applications folder) a try - it can delete photos from your phone too

I just upgraded my OS X 10.6.4 to Mavericks and now my iPhoto '09 needs an upgrade. Will I lose all my photos if I do the upgrade?

I upgraded my two Macbook Pro's yesterday to Mavericks, from OS X 10.6.4. I can't seem to open iPhoto on ONE of them. I believe it's the same on both computers, iPhoto '09. So I went in the App store and clicked upgrade my iPhoto. Now it says the library needs to be upgraded to work with this newer version of iPhoto. Help! Am I going to lose all my photos?

I believe it's the same on both computers, iPhoto '09.
Check the iPhoto versions. The version number should be shown below in the "General" section of the Info panel, when you select iPhoto in the Finder and use "File > Get Info". With Mavericks you should be using iPhoto 9.5.1. You can buy the upgrade from the App Store.
Will I lose all my photos if I do the upgrade?
No, but never do an upgrade without making a backup of your computer, just in case something is wrong.
Your photos are in your iPhoto library. After installing the upgraded version, the iPhoto Library will be upgraded to a new format, when you open it the first time in iPhoto.
If you want to use your iPhoto Library on both your computers, the iPhoto version should be the same.

I am trying to copy 3 photos from an album in iPhoto to my iPhone. I have tried to move them to PhotoStream. I "select" the photos in the Album and then click on PhotoStream in the "Share" menu at the bottom of the screen. Nothing happens. I have also tried emailing them tyo myself but iPhoto won't send the email. It tells me it doesn't recognize my ID and password. My operating is Lion on an iMac.

Thank you for responding to my question, above, this morning. And thank you for the link about PhotoStream. It was helpful in understanding how Photostream works, but, unfortunately, doesn't really reference my problem since it assumes that the photos were originated on one of my Apple devices. The photos I want to copy to my iPhone are in an album on iPhoto but I had originally downloaded them from my camera to my iMac then moved them to the album. The confusing thing for me is that they are 3 of a dozen photos takern over a period of 12 years on different digital cameras (two were taken on film and later scanned and eventually moved to the album in iPhoto) and all but three of the photos moved to photostream and are on my iPhone. It is those three, which were all taken on digital cameras and moved to the album, which I can't get to move to Photostream.

HT1212 Hi, one of my daughters friends tried to access her ipod causing it to become disabled; i do not want her to lose all her photos, she accesses my itunes account which is on ICLOUD, will she lose all her data - can this be fixed?

Hi, one of my daughters friends tried to access her ipod causing it to become disabled; i do not want her to lose all her photos, she accesses my itunes account which is on ICLOUD, will she lose all her data - can this be fixed? I do not think it has been synced with a computer before.

Disabled
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.
Otherwise y will have to restore and thus erase the iPod
You can restore from backup
If not in backup then:
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- Maybe from the restored iPod via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:

My daughter used her friends apple account to login on her ipad and then the mother of her friend thought it was being hacked and consequently tracked the ipad and my daughter lost all her photos. Can we get these back?

Your iOS device backup only includes data and settings stored on your device. It doesn’t include data already stored in iCloud, for example contacts, calendars, bookmarks, mail messages, notes, shared photo albums, iCloud Photo Library beta, My Photo Stream, and documents you save in iCloud using iOS apps and Mac apps.
