I want o manage my photos from iPhoto

Im going to be managing all my photos from Iphoto; so when uploading pictures from my camera I will import them all to Iphoto and then delete the ones I don't want. Will the imported photos that I delete be stored anywhere on my Mac or will they be deleted too when i delete them from my Iphoto library. I don't want to be left with GB's of photos sotred in a folder that im unaware are there.
Any help is appreciated.

WHen you manage the files with iPhoto, then deleting images from iPhoto sends the file to the iPhoto trash. You then empty the iPhoto trash and the material goes to the system trash. Once you empty the system trash they're gone.

  • I want to move my photos from iPhoto to Time Capsule to make space on my computer.  What's the best means of doing this?

    I want to move my photos from iPhoto to Time Capsule to make space on my computer.  What's the best means of doing this?

    Please do not do this.
    The Time Capsule was designed for your backups.....not as an everyday hard drive. Access to the Time Capsule is slow.
    If there is any loss of connection between iPhoto and the iPhoto library when you are reading or writing, the entire iPhoto library is easily corrupted.
    The chances of corruption are even more likely if you are using wireless on the computer.
    And....even if you decide to risk this....if you move your "original" iPhoto library to the Time Capsule.....how will you make backups of the library?
    The only copy of the library will be on the Time Capsule....you have no backups.....when, not if, the Time Capsule has a problem.
    Simply stated, I would never do this with any important data that you cannot afford to lose. Please post in the iPhoto support area if you need to confirm this.

    If you do want an idea of how to move your iPhoto library correctly, post back and we can help.

    I want to print a photo from Iphoto and I keep getting a msg about a theme, what is that all about and how do I do it.  For something so simple why is this such a pain?

  • How to export photos from iphoto'11 to portable drive for download?

    I have 2 macs in different locations and a 500gb portable drive. I am about to leave one location for the second location and want to take my photos from iPhoto with me on my portable drive.
    What is the best way to do this? I do have time capsule on the 1st iMac.
    I use Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 for editing on my iMac. I have a backup catalog Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and the folder 'my pictures' from my PC (on way to recycle - at last) on the portable drive.
    I am not currently using organizer from Adobe Photoshop 9 -but using events from iPhoto.

    Depends on what you want
    If your want your iPhoto library then drag it to the external drive - in the new location depress the option key and launch iPhoto and use the select library command to choose the library you want - the local one or the one on the EHD
    If you want to merge them then use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to merge the library on the EHD with the local library
    If you want just the photos then select them and export them to the external drive and import them into the other library
    Explain exactly what you want if none of these help

  • Deleting photos from iphoto and hard drive

    I'm new to macs and have been reading a lot about this subject but I still don't get it.
    When I got this new macbook I dumped all my photos from the old PC onto the new hard drive. When I import photos into iPhoto, I left the advanced tab  "copy items to the iPhoto library" unticked. This I understand means I'm running a referenced library. Now when I want to delete a photo from iPhoto, I must delete it from events and then empty the trash. Should I expect the deleted photo to have been removed form the hard drive location from where it was imported originally since I asked iPhoto not to copy the file?

    This I understand means I'm running a referenced library.
    Correct.
    Now when I want to delete a photo from iPhoto, I must delete it from events and then empty the trash.
    Correct. That removes it from iPhoto.
    Should I expect the deleted photo to have been removed form the hard drive location from where it was imported originally since I asked iPhoto not to copy the file?
    No. When you opted to not copy the file you said, in effect, "I want to do my own file management". So that means you get the files from the camera yourself, decide where to store them yourself and now, must delete them yourself.
    It's but one of the reasons experienced users recommend against reference libraries.

  • How do i delete photos from iPhoto without deleting them permanently from my macbook pro?

    I'm sorry but i'm new to all this. When i move photos from iphoto to the trash will that also delete that particular photo from my macbook pro storage entirely?

    To remove a photo from iPhoto and your Mac:
    Put it in the iPhoto Trash, then enpty it. Then empty the system trash as well
    If you want to remove a photo from iPhoto but keep it on your Mac:
    First Export the file from iPhoto (File -> Export) to whereever you want it and then go through the steps above.
    Confusion arises as the notion that you would want to remove a pic from iPhoto but keep it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It's like saying I want to remove one address from Address Book, but still keep it on my Mac. The point of iPhoto and such apps is that they are used to manage your photos. Anything that you need to do with the pics cn be done either with or via iPhoto.

  • How do I select multiple photos from iPhoto and upload them to a Facebook album?

    I have transferred ALL my photos from my iPhone into my Mac. They are now in iPhoto. I recently created an album and I want to put the photos from iPhoto into it, but not all the photos. I have quite a lot of photos to put in, and I don't know how to select multiple photos and put them in the album. Help me please!

    Create  an album in the left hand pane of iPhoto and drag the 4 photos into it.  Open the albume and select all four photos and click on the Share button.  Next select Email and go from there.

  • Problems exporting photos from iPhoto even after trying earlier suggestions

    I've done this before with no problem.
    I want to export 158 photos from iPhoto 11 on my iMac (OS 10.9.4) so I can put them on a 2GB SD card (MS-DOS FAT16) for a digital frame. With the SD card in the slot on the back of the iMac, I exported the files to that disk. I got an "Unable to create /Volumes/[filename]" error. Went ahead and deleted that pic from the album I'd created for export but got the error for a different file.
    Checked through the iPhoto forum and found others had similar problems. Terence Devlin suggested exporting to a folder on the desktop and dragging to the card. When I try that, I get an "Item [filename] can't be copied because there isn't enough free space" error. (This despite the fact that the Finder info shows 14.7MB for all the files and it's a 2 GB card.) I click "OK" in the error window and am told the 158 items are being copied. However, when the process is complete, only two files appear on the card in the Finder and both of them show they're empty (i.e., Size: Zero bytes).
    Tried reformatting the card. Tried plugging an external card reader into one of the USB ports on the iMac. Same problem.
    Thoughts?

    the general answer is to export the photos to a desktop folder and then drag that folder (not the photos in it) to the proper location on the unlocked SD card - FAT formatted volumes have a very low limitation on the number of lies on them at the root level hence the necessity to put the files in a folder and drag the single folder to the FAT volume

  • How do I delete photos from iPhoto

    I want to delete "crap" photos from iPhoto, ones that quite simply are "*****". How do I get rid of them once and for all. I notice I can do command delete and they go to the garbage I empty garbage and they are gone. The problem is that when I go back to "photos" iPhoto has saved the space where they were including a space that was the original size of the photo - for example it will show a space of 2.4 meg size. What's up with that? Anyone know? Thanks in advance.

    I do that and the photos are gone. But when I return to the events album that I deleted them from, iPhoto has saved the space they occupied and it appears that this "space" takes up as much hard drive as the full photo even though the space is blank.

    I'm a brand new Mac user. I want to send photos from Iphoto to my local store for printing, like I can do in Picasa. I can't find that option in Iphoto. I do not want to order them through Itunes.

    I have not idea how you do it with Picasa but with iPhoto you either export the photos to a desktop folder and upload from there or burns that folder to CD - or from the upload window use the media browser in the lower left hand corner of the upload windows - media ==> photos ==> iPhoto
