I have applied a description to photos in iPhoto. When I burn the CD, the description is not included. I used to do this with an older version of iPhoto. Am I doing something wrong?

I have been organizing my photos in iPhoto and have written descriptions for them. In the past, with an older version of iPhoto, I would burn a CD. When I would put the CD back in my computer, the description would also be on the CD. Now, I am burning the CD's and there is no record of the description. This is very important as I want the information stored with the photos, both for my own reference, but also if something would happen to me my family would know who are in the photos and what the occasions were. Is there some way I can do this? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Ok, sorry! I created an album with the photos I wanted to burn. I gave them new titles, sometimes using batch change when appropriate, otherwise individually. I then clicked on info and in the area labeled description I gave each photo a brief description. When I was done, I went to Share and clicked on burn. When prompted I inserted a blank CD-R in my external CD/DVD burner (which I need to use as my internal one has been replaced twice in less than a year and I was sick of spending $150.00 each time). When it was loaded I clicked the burn button at the bottom of iPhoto. When it was completed I reinserted it into the external CD/DVD burner/reader to see if it was successful. The photos all came up with the new title in my iPhoto library. When I click on info button, there is no description. The information about the date and place where the photo was taken is there, just not the description that I personally included.
I have not tried exporting the photos to finder and then burning as they suggest doing if you want the CD to be readable on Windows program, but I never had to do that with my old iPhoto program, so did not know if that would make a difference.
I can't think of any other information you might need, but if I missed something let me know and I will try to include it. Thanks for your interest in helping!

The tools are not responding when I try to use them. Some of them work sometimes, but not others and some don't work at all. I'm in a design class online and I need these tools desperately. I have an assignment due Monday and I'm losing the whole weekend because Tech Support is only open M-F!
Any help anyone can give me will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Do you have an iPhone 3G or 3 GS? The 3G can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1

Sprint has nothing to do with iTunes or iPads.

Is this a bug in ipod software or am i doing something wrong?

I got my ipod video a few weeks ago and was excited to be able to carry all 7000+ songs around in one place.. but then i ran into this problem and i'm not sure if it's a bug or if i'm doing something wrong.
let's say i have exactly one album by an artist.. and i also happen to have some singles from the artist, with no album set... (i prefer not to have albums set for songs i don't have the entire album for, to keep from having to sort through a truckload of albums i don't completely have).
when i browse by artist, and i select the artist, only the songs in the album shows up, all the non-album labeled songs are not visible! the same thing happens when i choose by genre..
in fact the only way to find those songs not bound to an album is to select them from the song list.. and having to scroll through 7000+ songs to find one really bites..
curiously enough, if there is two or more albums, then i can find the songs without albums.. definately sounds like a bug to me.. the software for the ipod video is only at v1.0, maybe they'll fix this (hopefully other ipods don't have this problem, i have no way of knowing though).
one work around i have tried is to set an empty album for the artist's song that has none, but i mean i don't want to do that for all my non-albumed songs because i'm interested in preserving the timestamp of songs (to know when i got them) and i can't reasonably search for songs that have exactly one album to just set those..

when i go to Music > Artist > All, as you suggested, i see all the albums i have listed. doesn't really relate to my problem with artists with songs in one album, as well as song w/o album set, and the latter not showing up.
but that reminds me, why is it when i go to the All section from a particular artist and they do have more than one album (or even no albums), the order of the songs is in the order they are in the albums.. if i wanted the order it is on albums, i would have selected that album for example.. it would be nice if the songs were in alphabetical order when you're NOT browsing by album, making a particular song easier to find (what if you have thirteen albums for example and u aren't sure which album a song is on, now you have to scroll through a seemingly random ordered list to find one song, alphabetical would be SOOOO helpful!)

Hi there, I seem to be losing emails from my inbox - they just disappear! Is this some sort of a bug or am I doing something wrong? thanks

I also just reactivated my MS outlook & same thing seems to be happening...does Outlook somehow sync to Thunderbird?
Please help!

No/yes
If its an IMAP account, they both read the same account.
If its a POP account check that you leave it on server and don't delete after x days.
Check your account on server as well as on both your clients.

I had Zotero connect to this with my older Version, it automaticlly upgraded and now I seem to have lost it, how do I get it back?

I need to get my zotero back. It has all my sources for my master's thesis which is due in two to three weeks. www.zotero.com is no help. The button for it no longer shows in the bottom of the screen when I open up Firefox. The automatic Firefox upgrade seems to have destroyed my zotero files with all of my bibliographic entries. I need to get this back ASAP! I really do not want to have to take the time to redo the entire thing. www.zotero.com is no help. I sign in and my library has nothing in it. They are no help as they just tell me to down load it again.

I have added photos to My Photo Stream on my PC (Windows 7). They appear in the Uploads folder instead. They do not upload to iCloud. Am I doing something wrong?

Unfortunately, photo stream on a PC is iffy at best. Many people have problems getting it to work properly, including myself. A work around would be to use an app like PhotoSync on your PC, which can send photos wirelessly to the camera roll on any of your iOS devices on the same wifi network. Once in the camera roll, you iOS device will be added to your photo stream.

HELP! Downloaded LR5 and when open it shows an error message saying error while trying to change from modules and I can not even import photos. Am I doing something wrong?

HELP! Downloaded LR5 and when open it shows an error message saying error while trying to change from modules and I can not even import photos. Am I doing something wrong?

I have the same problem, and the solutions in Error changing modules | Lightroom do not work. Even uninstalling and reinstalling a new copy did not solve the problem. As anyone got an idea what other lingering files might be causing the problem?

After creating a new slideshow I export it with the setting HD 1080p it is then saved as a .mov i then create a dvd in idvd and the quality is not as good as the original photo's when viewed on the monitor or a TV, am i doing something wrong?

DVD's are only 640 x 480 (interlaced), so yes, the quality is not nearly as good. You should probably create your .mov in DV format to best match the DVD format

Using the crop tool in Lightroom 5 I can only move and crop my photos from the top. Am I doing something wrong?

I am new to Lightroom 5 and find I cannot crop my photos as easily as I did in iPhoto. I would like to be able to drag them if I choose a custom size or crop them from the bottom as well as from the top but my two sided arrow disappears when I work at the bottom of the photo. Am I doing something wrong?

I would suggest you trash the prefs.
Quit Lightroom
Launch Finder and find the user Library by clicking the Go menu whilst holding down the Optn (alt) key (n.b. the library is hidden until you press the optn key) and inside the Library folder select the preferences folder. Then trash the following file:
com.adobe.Lightroom5.plist
Then re-launch Lightroom
It’s then worth clearing each cache. Go to the top menu bar:
Lightroom >> Preferences >> File Handling (tab)
Click the Purge Cache button under Camera Raw Cache Settings; then click the Purge Cache button under Video Cache Settings. Finally click OK.

IPhoto won't delete the photos from my iphone once I have imported them and indicated to delete the photos from my phone. Am I doing something wrong?

I have imported several hundred photos from my iPhoen 5C into iPhoto library. I selected yes to delete them from my iPhone but the photos remain on the phone. Am i doing something wrong. I don't want to pay apple a fee to get this answered via their support system. This should be straight forward, shouldn't it? Thanks.

Are you asking about iCloud Photo Library (Beta) as described in: iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support ?
In that case you will still see all photos on your iPhone, even after uploading the Photos to the iCloud Photo Library. The photos on your iPhone may be light-weight optimized previews, if you have the setting
Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library > Optimize [device] Storage enabled.
But as long as you have enough free storage, will the your iPhone keep the full resolution versions of the photos you access most frequently.

I'm backing up my new iphone 5 from icloud and it's taking forever to download my photos. It being going for four days. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm backing up my new iphone 5 from icloud and it's taking forever for my photos to download. It's been going for 4 days. It's downloaded 1400 out of 1900 photos. Am I doing something wrong?

I think you may not using the right technical terms. When backing up to icloud, there is no way you'd get a message saying things will be wiped. This message may be displayed when you are performing a RESTORE from a backup and then trying to cancel it.
If you are doing a restore, then you can reboot and restore again.

iCloud does not provide website hosting. You will need to find another website hosting service - there are many to choose from - and upload your site there. How you do this depends on what version of iWeb you have.
In order to upload your existing site in iWeb '09 and above:
Click on the name of the site in the sidebar: the publishing settings pane will open. Set 'Publish to' to 'FTP'. Enter the name of the site and a contact address (if desired).
In the 'FTP Server Settings' section you will need to know the server address (your hosting service can tell you that), and your username and password for that service. Your site will be published in a folder with its name at root level of the server, with an index.html file at root level (which will overwrite any index.html file which may be there already). The 'Directory/Path' field may need to include a path such as '/webspace/' or 'ht_docs/' - this is dependent on your hosting service and they should tell you this. If you want to publish within a folder you can add that to the path.
You can then click the 'Test connection' button so that iWeb can check that it can get access to your server space. You should enter the URL of the site in the 'URL' field so that rss feeds and internal links have the correct address.
To publish using an earlier version of iWeb:
From the File menu choose 'Publish to a folder'. You should create a folder somewhere convenient specifically for this and choose it when publishing to a folder: this folder should not contain anything else.
You now need an FTP program (FTP is the 'protocol' used for uploading) to upload the contents of the folder to your server.Cyberduck is free (donation requested): Transmit is $34 but I think better. You will need the server address (your hosting service can tell you that), and your username and password for that service. You can drag the contents of your folder to your webspace, or create a folder there and drag the contents to that if you prefer.
Some facilities that iWeb provided when hosted on MobileMe will not work on other servers: comments on weblogs and photos, password-protecting your site (some hosts may provide this), searching in the weblog, and a hits counter (again, some hosts can provide code for this). Slideshows in iWeb will work on other hosts than MobileMe (they use different code when FTPing which doesn't depend on scripts hosted on MobileMe as the MobileMe version does); however there is an issue with the 'buttons' which control the slideshow which are images hosted on me.com - these depend on images which used to be hosted on MobileMe. The poster 'Old Toad' on the Apple Forums has provided a workaround, described at http://oldtoadstutorials.net/No.26.html.

Why does it take so long to upload? Am I doing something wrong?

At the moment it takes a few hours(!) to upload about ten pages on one site. Just pictures. iPhoto used to publish within five minutes. Why does it take so long? Am I doing something wrong, like having it on a weird setting? It looks beautiful, but not very impressed with iWeb functionality as of yet.

don't know if i can downgrade the file sizes, am just selecting the photos in iphoto and then clicking iweb so it should do it automatically. it shouldn't take hours though should it? the site address is web.mac.com/adilamin/iWeb but there is no problem with accessing the site and loading the pics, its just the uploading from iWeb.
