I created an album in Photos how do I get iPhoto to sync

Could someone tell me how to get the album over to iPhoto?
iPhoto is just saying I can import these photos but I've already grouped them on my iPad - would rather not do it again on Mac...

You need to connect your iPad to the computer you normally sync with and start Image Capture or iPhoto to transfer photos in the Camera Roll to the Mac. Once the photos have copied over you can organize them into folders on your computer.
Once that is done sync your iPad using iTunes on your computer to copy the albums over to the Photos app on your iPad.
Then start iPhoto on your iPad and you will see the albums there waiting for you.

How do I get iPhoto to sync on all my devices

I have photos on my iPhone, my iPad and my two computers. Some photos are on multiple devices but others are only on one device, my iPhone for example. How do I sync all my photos so that all the devices have all the photos? Is that even possible. I don't want to lose anything. Thanks a lot.

How do I get iPhoto to sync between my iMac and PowerBookPro?

I'm trying to sync the iPhoto libraries with 700-800 photos each, many of them duplicates, on my iMac and my MacBookPro. And I'm not finding a way to do that. Apparently the Cloud only syncs them if I use Aperture, which I don't want to do. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks

I created an album from photos taken off three different cameras. I am sorting the photos manually and when I close iPhoto, the photos move back either by date or by camera import time. How can I keep the photos from moving around?

Creating more Albums under Photos besides Camera Roll

I have searched for this topic and all I see are vague responses from people about looking at the pdf manual for the answer or doing it in iTunes. well, I have read the manual and have looked at iTunes and don't see a way. Is there no way to actually create more albums under Photos in addition to the Camera Roll album? If so, how is it down? If not, is there any recommended apps that will allow this to be done? Thank you.

Seems like a round about way to get photos from one album to the next, but oh well.
I did create a folder and synced that up. That folder did show under Photos as a new album. However, when I went to make another folder and synced that up, the first one I made disappeared. Does it only allow for Camera Roll and one other album? If Photos only allows 2 albums, is there any good app that lets me have more control and more albums?

In photos it says "Albums". Can we create other albums besides photo roll?

You need to create them on your PC first then sync them over. The ability to create them on the iDevice will be included in iOS 5 when its release later in teh year.

Suppose you create an album of photos imported from your iPhone with roll, then delete those photos on the roll ... because they were also deleted on the album?

If you create an album directly on the phone, then if you delete the photo from its original album then it will also be deleted from all albums that you've copied it into; if you just remove it from the newly created album then it will just be deleted from that album, it will still be in its original album and any other albums that you've copied it into.

How do I get iPhoto to not copy photos into its own folder, read originals?

I was wondering how you could get iPhoto 6 to 'read' photos from it's original file.
I normally keep my photos in their own folder, separate from the iPhoto file. Now I kind of want to have them all organized nicely in the iPhoto file so I don't have duplicates floating around. I wiped the iPhoto Library (they were duplicates) and as I import them, they copy right back into an 'iPhoto Library' file. I want them to stay in my own folder 'My Photos'.
Is this possible? =S

Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
*However, you need to be aware of a number of potential pitfalls using this system.*
1. Import and deleting pics are more complex procedures
2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
Always allowing for personal preference, *I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers.*
If disk space is an issue, you can run an entire iPhoto Library from an external disk:
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
If you're concerned about accessing the files, there are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
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. Again, producing a copy.
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.
Your choice, obviously, but best to be aware of all the ramifications. By all means post back if you require more info.

How do I get iPhoto on new iPad to load all Facebook albums to select where to upload?

How do I get iPhoto on new iPad to load all Facebook albums to select where to upload?
Besides 'new album' , 'wall photos', or 'iPhoto Uploads' ... it only shows 24 pre-existing albums to choose. I need to see the other 50, 60, etc albums I have.
I've also noticed that iPhoto fails to load to certain albums with some 'Domin Exception' error of some kind (not sure the exact message).

You need to make the new Mac iTunes library your syncing library. iTunes on the Mac sees your iPad as a new device because you have never synced with this computer before. You can make the Mac your syncing computer by following the instructions in this user tip. You will be able to transfer the purchased music on the iPad into iTunes when you follow this procedure.

How do you get iphoto to recognize that a computer really is connected to the internet? I cannot use places to locate my photos, because the software keeps telling me my computer is not connected. I know the computer is connected.

How do I get iphoto to recognize that a computer really is connected to the internet? I cannot use places to locate my photos, because the software keeps telling me my computer is not connected. I know the computer is connected.

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. It the problem persists make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
If the new library does'nt have that problem then your original library is damaged. Post back if that's the case and we'll go from there.

Lost my iPhoto Albums (MY LIFE) How do I get them back?

Downloaded the latest OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks and lost my iPhoto Albums (MY LIFE) How do I get them back?

Can you explain in a little more detail.
Two things can and have happened that might help.
1) iPhoto needs to be updated. Go to the App Store, Updates, and update iPhoto.
2) You created a new account and logged into that. Log out, then see if your old account is there.

What version of iPhoto and system are you running?
Try moving the Zoom slider at the bottom of the iPhoto window all the way to the left. Does that let more than one photo display in the window?
