I'm told I can rearrange photos within an album by dragging, but my computer is not allowing that.  What can I do?

I'm using a MacBook Pro.  Cannot rearrange photos in an iPhoto album.  What can I do to fix this?  I'm using version 10.9.4  

Put the message in the Trash and then empty the Trash.

  • When I edit and/or delete photos from an album in iPhoto is there a way to make that what happens in the folder in finder?

    When I edit and/or delete photos from an album in iPhoto is there a way to make that what happens in the folder in finder? I am new to Mac. I've updated the operating system and iPhoto.

    If your iPhoto Advanced preference pane is setup like this
    all photos you import into the library are COPIED into the library.  Thus those photos in the folders outside of iPhoto are redundant and can be deleted to save space on your hard drive. There no need to keep those copies in the folders.
    If you do have your advance preferences set as shown above you can access your photos for use outside of iPhoto according to the following User Tip by Terence Devlin which is the best treatise on how to access photos (for use outside of iPhoto):  How to Access Files in iPhoto.  Otherwise you access your photos from within iPhoto. 

  • Rearranging photos within an album

    Hi,
    I wanted to know if it is possible to rearrange the order of the photos within an album on an ipad or iphone?
    Regards
    Adam.

    Cheers Ralph will check it out.
    I have just found a bit of a resolution by creating a new album, and adding the photos i want in there one at a time in order that i would like them in.
    I think holding the photo until it wiggles and moving it would be a good feature to arranging the order of photos in a similar way you arrange orders of apps on the homescreen.
    Thanks for your help

  • Rearranging photos within an album PSE13

    I need advice  on how to  re-sequence photos within an album. I'm using PSE 13.  Drag and drop doesn't work.  I also tried: right click on an album >edit album. This allows me to rearrange the photos in the right screen panel but the changes do not seem to be incorporated into the album itself after I check-off "OK".  Any help is appreciated.
    THX,
    Vinny

    Please select the album.
    Now Choose Album Order in Sort By options.
    You should be able to rearrange the photos in that album.
    Thanks,

  • Can't drag & drop photos within an album in iPhoto6

    I can't change the order of photos in an album by dragging. Looking at the other posts, I've fixed the Helvetica bug several times (by re-activating the font in Fonts Book) but it still doesn't work. When trying to drag, the photo will migrate to a strange place within the album, or not at all. Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for your replies, TD. They are ordinary albums. I haven't made any smart albums yet. It's strange, sometimes when I'm trying to relocate a photo I'll see the cursor flash in another place on the page and the photo will migrate there. Sometimes there are no cursors at all.

  • HT204053 I changed my apple id, but my ipad does not allow me to change it for Icloud, so I can't  edit my account so I can access Icloud. I was told at Apple store that I could use both Apple ids, but my old one is no longer recognized. Any suggestions?

    I changed my apple id, but my ipad does not allow me to change it for Icloud, so I can't  edit my account so I can access Icloud. I was told at Apple store that I could use both Apple ids, but my old one is no longer recognized on the appleid website, so my password for my old apple id won't work.
    Any suggestions?

    If you only changed the name of your ID rather than creating a new ID, just go to Settins>iCloud and tap Delete Account then sign back in with the new name.  (Deleting the account from your phone does not delete it from iCloud.  Your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.)
    If you created a new ID, you'll have to go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPhone.  (If you are syncing iWork documents with iCloud, also open your iWork apps and turn off iCloud syncing and choose to keep the documents on your phone.)  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using your other ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.
    You won't lose any photos in your camera roll or photo library.  If you have any photos in your photo stream that are over 30 days old that are not in your camera roll or saved on your computer, be sure to save these to the camera roll before deleting the account.  To do so, open the photo stream album on your iPhone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you need to save to select them, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • PSE 12 captions and numbering of photos within an album

    On PSE12, can I make the caption I have given a photo to appear on thumbnail within an album?
    Is it possible to not have the # of the photo within the album to appear in the upper left corner of the thumbnail?

    No, the caption can't appear in the browsing space, but if you are using the full screen option (F11) the caption is shown.
    Is it possible to not have the # of the photo within the album to appear in the upper left corner of the thumbnail?
    The order of the photo is only visible if you are in 'album order'. In the other sorts (filename, chronological, batch import) it is not shown.

  • I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer.?

    I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer in case it wipes everything .

    I have the exact same problem. I have not changed anything. This is probably a bug or something that has gone bad with Mac OS X (10.7.2). I have not found any solution for this on the web.

  • 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.
