I used Picasa and want to switch to iphoto but I want to keep the structure

Is there anyway I can keep the structure I set up for my photos in picasa and keep it in Iphoto? Does Iphoto import the photos onto the hard disk or does it leave it in the location I have it (external hard-disk) Picasa just displays the photos but not actually places them on different location, is that the same with iPhoto?
A little help would really be appreciated Thanks

Is there anyway I can keep the structure I set up for my photos in picasa and keep it in Iphoto?
no - iPhoto is a relational database and manages photos - it does not allow you to control the structure - and there is no reason to - one of the primary reasons to use iPhoto is because of its amazing ability to find photos by any of many criteria
Does Iphoto import the photos onto the hard disk or does it leave it in the location I have it (external hard-disk)
Sort of - iPhoto does have an option to reference the photos in a location of your selection but it is not recommended for many reasons - and iPhoto will not reflect any changes you make to the referenced photos and your referenced photos will not be modified when you edit in iPhoto - plus importing and deleting is more difficult and upgrading or changing hardware is much more difficult
Picasa just displays the photos but not actually places them on different location,
Correct - Picasa is a photo viewer - iPhoto is a photo manager
is that the same with iPhoto?
No - see above

Surprise surprise but we can't see what you are looking at and referring to.
What black background?
If it is black background in the actual photo:
Menu > Format > Instant Alpha > drag the cursor over the colored background you wish to remove

The music sync is how you got the music from the computer to the ipod in the first place.
You cannot sync it from the ipod to the computer as I explained in the previous post, unless it is itunes purchased music.

I bought a used ipad and want to delete the old network that wi-fi used

I just purchased a used ipad2 and I want to delete the previous owner's network suggestion. Also, how do I set up wi-fi and connect to the internet.

Go to Settings on the iPad, be on the General tab, and then go to the bottom where it says "Reset".
I recommend to Erase All Content and Settings, seeing as it's a used iPAd. Once that is completed, if it comes up to a screen telling you to plug the device into iTunes, follow that instruction. If it doesn't and you are already on iOS 5, you're set to go and it will guide you through the stesp to enjoy your iPad.
If it doesn't have iOS 5, plug it into your computer and open up iTunes after Erasing All Content and Settings, and follow the steps shown on your computer. If no steps show, go to the left hand side of the program and click 'iPad' and follow the steps. If no steps are given, click 'Check for Updates' if it didn't prompt you already to update your iPad.

I don't like 7.0.2 and want to keep the earlier version

I don't like 7.0.2 and want the older version. I can easily burn cd's, the older version has a huge icon that is not confusing. However, I can't use the store without the newer version what can I do? Should I just sart using another friendlier mp3 service?

I created folders in iphoto on my imac, synch using itunes and selected all photos from iphoto but those albums don't show up...most my albums do but a few don't!??

I have a new iMac and I'm a new mac user....I have an iphone5..and ipad2.
I have created folders on the imac in iphoto.
I am synching the ipad and iphone with mac using itunes...selecting all photos, 3,500+ and although all the pictures may be sharing on all devices, the folders aren't.
I have created several folders and copied pictures into those folders and they look fine while in iphoto....but I can't get the to synch into ipad and iphone using itunes.

Folders in iPhoto do not contain photos. Albums and Events do. Folders can contain albums, but not photos on their own.
So, do you mean Albums?

Choose Consolidate Library from the Advanced menu or the Library section of the File menu in iTunes, find the iTunes library location from the iTunes preferences, and move the song files inside to the new computer.

I have a new iPod Touch and one apple ID. I want to use My laptop aswell as my desktop computer for the one ipod, using the same apple ID. I have music on both computers and want to merge the two without losing any music or apps. How do I do this?
My iPod has music and apps from my apple ID that I downloaded to my iPod via iCloud and some apps that I got free from the store, straight onto my iPod, but my laptop has some music on it aswell, separate from my other library. I want to put the music from my laptop into my iTunes library which I want to use on both computers. Is it possible to do this?
Thanks.

- You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
- If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy.

If I have say 200 photos in an EVENT and I use 50 of them in an ALBUM and months later I'm happy with the ALBUM and want to trash the 150 extras in part to save space on the hard drive, is there an easy way to find which photos to delete?

If I have, say 200 photos in an EVENT and I use 50 of them in an ALBUM, and months later I'm happy with the ALBUM and want to trash the extra 150 photos, is there an easy way to know which 150 photos to trash? My idea is to not have hundreds of photos taking up space on the hard drive.
Thanks.

Various ways:
Easy one: Flag the ones you want to keep (do this in the Album - Select All and Flag)
Then:
File -> New Smart Album
Event -> contains -> Name of the Event
Photo -> Is Not -> Flagged
will find the unwanted 150.

Not enough information to provide an answer... do you have a licensed (old) version, or do you have a Cloud subscription?
