I overwrote my photo album in iphoto by naming it the same name as a previous album. Is there any way to undo this?
I uploaded one memory card to iphoto and gave it a name. Then, not knowing it was going to overwrite, I uploaded a second memory card and named it the same as the first and lost all of the pictures from the first memory card. It's very upsetting because I know I lost some beautiful pictures. I'm just wondering if there is anything I can do to get back those overwritten photos from the first upload.
Let me be clear on this.
I uploaded one memory card to iphoto and gave it a name
By "it" do you mean the Event?
I uploaded a second memory card and named it the same
Again by "it" you mean the new Event?
If that's what you did you didn't overwrite the one event with the new one. You can have two events with the same name. Go to the Photos mode and search at the bottom for the event name you used. You'll get something like this:
Just check the dates as if they are not close together they will be harder to view in the Event mode. Be sure you have the Event mode View ➙ Sort option set to By Date ➙ Descending so the newer events are at the top.

I have been using the apple IPad camera connection kit and my photos can be viewed in the events... But the all imported folder is no longer there and the last import folder is empty. Is there any way to resolve this and get my all imported folder back? as well as get my last import functioning normally?
Please please help me, if you know how.

Almost my entire itunes music library seems corrupted. Nearly every song (431 albums) displys "the song ... cannot be used because the original file cannot be found". Is there any way to correct this? Please help!
thanks,
kelly61Select one of the songs in question and right click, then select "Get Info". On the main dialog page you should see where iTunes thinks the file resides. Then use Windows Explorer to see if the file is actually there. If not, find out where your music is stored.If there is not a correlation between iTunes and reality, go into iTunes and delete all of the files which are not found. Then, in iTunes, select File->Add Folder to Library and select where the music is stored. iTunes will re-add all of the music into your library.

I had photos from MobileMe organized into different events. When iPhoto made a MobileMe event (when MobileMe ended), it took all of those photos out of the other events and put them all together in the new "from MobileMe" event. Is there any way to reverse this?
Only to load your backup from before downloading the MM photos

I am trying to crop a portrait photo into 6x4 portrait ready for printing. I am using Iphoto on a Macbook Pro. Everytime I try and crop the photo, it crops in Landscape which cuts out most of the photo. Is there any way of resolving this? I am new to Macs as I am currently switching from MS. It is very easy to do this in MS photo editor so I can't believe it can't be easily done in Iphoto!
These are the two steps that Larry describes:

iPhoto allowed me to add location to photos taken by camera with no GPS. Photos doesn't have this facility. Is there any way to do this?
From http://geotag.modesittsoftware.com/Photo_GeoTag/FAQs.html
1. Does Photo GeoTag work with iPhoto and Photos?
iPhoto and Photos store their image files in various undocumented locations, and they seem to store the image metadata in separate locations. If you edit an image in one of their sub-folders, iPhoto or Photos may not know about the change. Instead export the image from iPhoto or Photos, geotag it, and then import it back into iPhoto or Photos to see the geotagged location. In the future Apple may provide a means of accessing the image files directly, but for now you must geotag the photo before importing it, or if the photo is already in iPhoto or Photos, export, geotag, and then import.
So it would seem that it isn't much better than using iPhoto 9.6.1 to do the geotagging, exporting the original from that app, & importing it into Photos. -
I use google for my email, calendar and contacts. My photos are in iPhoto on my Mac. I have an Android phone. Is there any reason I should move to iCloud?
If you don't use MobileMe then there is no point moving to iCloud.

In iOS 4, you could make separate photo slide shows with separate songs.
In iOS 5, this has changed. Now only 1 song is allowed at a time. It will not save separate song selections for each slide show.
Is there any way to fix this? This is something I use every day.
I am on an iPad 2, 32gb, wifi...
Thank youMy Photos app works the same on iOS 5 as it did on iOS 4 i.e. I can have a different track for each album. When I select a track for a photo album I then start the slideshow so that it shows the first couple of photos with the track playing - I'm not sure it's necessary to start the slideshow but I always do and it remembers that track for that album.

When I try to print a drawing imported from my ipad iphoto crops it. Is there any way to stop this?
Usual cause: printing at the wrong aspect ratio for the image - trying to print 5 x 3 in the shape of a 6 x 4 for instance.

Is there any way of undoing a shuffle? The CDs I downloaded to iTunes have all been shuffled into individual 'songs'. As most of these are classical and folk, it is inappropriate to have them separated into songs that play any old time (ie, a movement from Beethoven's 5th symphony followed by a folk song followed by one excerpt from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, etc. Can I restore them all to the original albums and make sure the shuffle doesn't happen again?
Thanks!goldberry wrote:
Thanks! That has worked, but only partially - there are still some Beethovens mixed in with the Vivaldis. I'm sure I installed these as total albums.
I have noticed that too from time to time, I generally move the files into the correct folder and fix the index in itunes when one won't open, occasionally. -
I just got tOhe iPhone 4Gs today and had contacts and photos uploaded from another phone synced new phone with iTunes for music and accidentally restored it so all my old iPhone stuff is on the new one is there any way to fix this ?! Please help !!!!

I purchased an album from the itunes store on my Ipad2 thinking i could access it from my windows laptop where I sync my ipod. I turned on Home Sharing and can see my laptop libraries from my ipad but not vice versa. Is there any way to fix this so I can transfer the album to the itunes on my laptop?
Yes I tried that. I finally turned off all home sharing settings, shut down my desktop and found them in my account settings in the store on the cloud. So at that point I just had it download everything. But I suspect that with the ipad somehow being on, the store was saying I had already received them? Regardless, my trip today whilst running errands, I was rocking out to vintage Police music! Thank you so much for responding.

I have accidentally retored my phone back to factory settings and lost my contact list, photos and all. I have retrieved my apps via itunes but is there any way to reverse this so I can get my photos and contact list back?
Some accident with all the steps and warning messages provided.
All contacts on your iPhone should be available on your computer. Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for such important data. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
Contacts and photos/videos in the Camera Roll should be included with your iPhone's backup which should have been created or updated by iTunes as the first step during the restore process - unless you declined the option.
If you declined the option, the data is gone. If not, restore your iPhone again from the backup that was created or updated before the previous restore. -
I connected a digital camera memory chip with approximately 100 photos on it to import into iPhoto. The photos showed up in iPhoto. I believe I deleted the photos from the memory chip before importing them to iPhoto. Is there any way I can get the photos back?
Terence, thanks that site is a gem...have to explore it more fully at home as it drove security here crazy
Looks like just the ticket for saving mistakes. -
Delete photos in both iPhoto and Finder at the same time??
Is there any way I can delete photos in iPhoto AND at the same time delete them permanently in the finder?
We all take too many pictures with out digital cameras and we can't say for sure which once are good with just looking at the camera... so we have to import ALL of them to iPhoto. When we do that, they also get saved in the Finder. When you delete the bad photos in iPhoto you still sit on the bad photos in Finder...
Does anyone know an easy way to delete BOTH at the same time?
Thank youI'm not sure I understand your set up:
And I wanted to let you know that under Preferences the box "copy items to the iPhoto Library" is checked.
So, all your pics are copied into the iPhoto Library. BUT you also have copies in the Pictures Folder. Why do you have two copies? They don't count as a back up because they aren't on a different volume, all they are doing is wasting disk space.
If you let iPhoto manage the files then you have no need to access them in the Finder. With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Unix Style Package File. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
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.
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 THIS
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.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
I'm not sure I understand your problem.
