I have an iPhoto event on my computer that I have photo-edited, named, key-worded, and place and dated. How to I transfer that event to another computer in a way that includes ALL the information?

I have iPhoto '09, version 8.1.2. I have an event in the Library whose photos have all been edited, faces named, keywords added, and place and dated. How do I transfer the event intact (with ALL the editing, names, dates, places, etc) to another computer? Exporting does not include all the information (no dates or face names), nor does burning a DVD (it shows the location pinned on the map, but doesn't write out the name of the place).

File -> Export:
Kind: Jpeg
Check the boxes at Include...
This will get everything you mention except the Faces data. There is no way to share that on any system.
Note that this information including the dates is written to the IPTC and Exif metadata. So you'll need an app that understands these things as the Finder doesn't - a Photo app for insstance.
There are two kinds of metadata involved when you consider  jpeg or other image file.
One is the file data. This is what the Finder shows. This tells you nothing about the contents of the file, just the File itself.
The problem with File metadata is that it can easily change as the file is moved from place to place or exported, e-mailed, uploaded etc.
Photographs have also got both Exif and IPTC metadata. The date and time that your camera snapped the Photograph is recorded in the Exif metadata. Regardless if what the file date says, this is the actual time recorded by the camera.
Photo applications like iPhoto, Aperture, Lightroom, Picasa, Photoshop etc get their date and time from the Exif metadata.
When you export from iPhoto to the Finder new file is created containing your Photo (and its Exif). The File date is - quite accurately - reported as the date of Export. However, the Photo Date doesn't change.
The problem is that the Finder doesn't work with Exif.
So, your photo has the correct date, and so does the file, but they are different things. To sort on the Photo date you'll need to use a photo app.

    My drive failed on my iMac and I had to get a new drive but now my iTunes music is gone including all the CD's I added to iTunes, and all of my custom Playlists. All of that stuff is still on my iPhone 4, but how do I get it all onto my iMac again? I have CD's on my phone that i no longer have the physical copies of so i can't just re-download them all, plus it would take forever! I just want to know if there is a way to get all of what is still on my phone, back over to my iMac with it's new drive and restore my full iTunes library to the iMac with playlists, CD downloaded music, and my iTunes bought stuff, so i can go back to synching the 2 devices without losing everything that's on my phone that used to be on both devices?

  • My iphone4 is stuck on 'connect to itunes' after i have done a full back up and restore. Why won't it back up onto my iphone? I can see all the data on my computer but it wont sync to my iphone. Please help!

    Hello. Please can anyone help?
    After having issues with my iphone4, I was told to restore it as it was probably a software issue.
    So today I have made sure to back up to icloud, and onto my computer / itunes. After restoring my phone, you go through the steps on the iphone, to resore the back up from itunes there shows a symbol of the itunes and a wire to connect. I have connected to itunes and it will not sync. All the information is there on my computer, it goes through all the steps to sync, 1-6 then goes back to itunes. But none of the data is on my iphone, my iphone is still on the 'connect to itunes' symbol!
    Am i doing something wrong? How can I get all my data back onto my iphone?
    Thank you.

    Try on another computer with another USB cable.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Firefox 26 does not load the home page. Instead, it loads the previous session (and that includes all the tabs). It does not matter how Firefox is closed.

    Firefox 26 does not load the home page. Instead, it loads the previous session, irrespective of what has been entered in "Options". The browser is running in Win 7.0 64-bit; Norton Internet Suite 21 provides the security functions. There are certain "cloud" solutions also running such as Google Drive, Box, Skydrive and Cubby. The browser behaves similarly in all my machines (the setup and OS is similar to the one described above) and no amount of resetting of "Options" seems to affect it . Nor is it affected by the manner Firefox is closed. It is obviously a bug that needs to be fixed.

    u wait for firefox next update
    otherwise
    1. go to firefox tab .
    2. click on help ->trouble shooting information.
    3. reset ur browser .
    ur problem is solved

  • Is there any way to include all the info on a form as an attachment?

    Hi. I would like to find out if there is a way to include the same info that is entered in the fields of a standard html form as a data file attachment? I'm thinking along the lines of an xml file that would usually be sent to the recipient once a pdf form has been filled in and submitted.
    By default (in my case anyway) when an online form is submitted by somebody, whatever info was entered in the fields will simply display in the body of the email. That's fine if it's an occasional form that's submitted but if we plan to make this a standard method of submitting data, thus greatly increasing submissions, (as opposed to filling in pdf forms - which don't work for our employees on smartphones) AND I want to gather the data and put it in a sort of a simple database (excel spreadsheets is fine!) then obviously we'll want to make this easy on ourselves and avoid having to manually enter the information received into a spreadshhet every time data is received.
    I'm not looking into setting up a full online database (despite the fact that might seem a nice (long-term) solution), as that would be unncessary for this kind of 'minor' exercise at the moment - I'd just like to see if there's a cost free solution to force a submitted html form to also send a data attachment (e.g xml) to the recipient. Thanks in advance.

    There is nothing within DW that can do this for you. You also cannot go straight from HTML to an emailed XML file, which is likely why you couldn't find anything online about it.
    You will need to find out what server scripting language(s) your hosting company supports (php is a common one).
    Once you know that, you'll need to create/purchase/download a script in that language that you attach your html form to in order for it to be converted by your server and sent to your email as an XML file, again php is a very common choice for this.
    As Murray suggests, there are a lot of sources online once you know which language you can use.

  • HT201302 How can I transfer my pictures from my iPad onto my Mac without loosing all the albums I already created on my iPad?

    During my holidays I placed all my camera pictures while using the sd card reader adapter to my ipad mini. Now i'm back home and I want to transfer all the pictures to my mac. But i've already created albums on the the ipad and sorted all the pictures and placed them in the different albums. How can I transfer also these albums onto the mac?

    I haven't used iTunes on my laptop in a while but I believe that if you authorize your computer it will allow you to transfer the pictures. Not 100% sure though.
    How do I authorize a computer?
    Open iTunes on the computer you want to authorize.
    Choose Store > Authorize This Computer from the menu bar.
    You might need to show the menu bar to see this option in Windows. In earlier versions of iTunes, you can access this option from the Advanced menu.
    Enter your Apple ID and click Authorize.
    If iTunes asks you to authorize your computer again, it won't use a new authorization. iTunes uses the same authorization for the same computer.

I only "clicked" on "Backup" when I connected the new phone to my computer. I was afraid to click on "Restore Backup" to have all the other information I had from my other iPhone load up to my new iPhone. Hope you can help. What is the difference between "Backup" and "Restore Backup"; is all that different from synching.Thanks. Ana

    That's up to you. Do you want the data on your old phone on your new phone? If so, you follow the directions here:

    If you want to setup your new phone as a new device, then there is nothing you need to do.

    Glenn,
    I tried upgrading to leopard, even bought the software and brought it home but it wouldn't let me. So i went back to apple, gave them the specifications of the machine and been told my machine is simply too old for leopard. This is incredible to me because it really isn't THAT old (i think just a little over 6 years maybe) and yet i'm left out on the curb when it comes to using newer apple products. I understand technology moves on but the mindset that i am supposed to dump a perfectly working machine after a couple of years or face not being able to use any other apple product is counter to what thought apple was about.

  • I have a single song that is on my iPod Classic 7 but the artist does not appear and under "artists" in the music it doesn't appear, nor does it in albums. All the information on the song is correct the artist just will not appear. Why is this?

    All the information is correct and filled correctly, I have chacked seven times, but it still will not appear, why?

    Any funny characters in the artist or album names? I take it that it is not hiding for the reasons given in Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist? Sort fields can sometimes cause items to be listed in a different place within the list. Can you find it using search on the device?

  • I have downloaded an update for my ipod 4th, and after that all my songs, pictures and apps have been erased, Is there some way to recover all my information without have done a security copy?

    I have downloaded an update for my ipod 4th, and after that all my songs, pictures and apps have been erased, Is there some way to recover all my information without have done a security copy?

    I supsect you did the update on other than your syncing computer. If yu did the app, music and synced photo will not be on the iPod after the update since those items are not in the backup that iTunes makes. See:
    iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5
    The above applies to all updates performedvia USB on a computer. To get stuff back, restore from backup on the syncing computer.
    The above in my educated guess since you provided litle information about how you did the update.
    You can redownload many iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I have 6 ios devices. When we got icloud, all the information merged. How do i make everything go back to how it was before?

    I have 6 ios devices. When i got icloud, all the information merged together. How do i make it go to how i had it before.

    "Method Three
    Create a separate iTunes library for each device. Note:It is important that you make a new iTunes Library file. Do not justmake a copy of your existing iTunes Library file. If iTunes is open,quit it.
    This one may work. I searched and searched on the website for something like this, I guess I just didn't search correctly, lol. I will give this a try later. My daughter is not be back for a few weekends, therefore I will have to try the Method 3 when she comes back for the weekend again. "
    I forgot to mention that she has a PC at her house that she also syncs to. Would this cause a problem. I am already getting that pop up saying that the iPod is synced to another library (even though she is signed in with her Apple ID to iTunes) and gives the pop up to Cancel, Erase & Sync, or Transfer Purchases. My question arose because she clicked on "Erase & Sync" by mistake when she plugged the iPod to her PC the first time. When the iPod was purchased and setup, it was synced to my PC first. When she went home, she hooked it up to her PC and then she erased it by accident. I was able to restore all the missing stuff yesterday using my PC. However, even after doing that it still told me the next time I hooked it up last night that the iPod was currently synced with a different library. Hopefully, you can help me understand all this. She wants to sync her iPod and also backup her iPod at both places. Both PCs have been authorised. Thanks
