Identifying Photos Not in Any Album
Is there a way to create a filter that will list/identify all photos in the iPhoto library that are not associated with an album?
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Yes, well my question is why can't I associate my smart album with a PARTICULAR album or folder, rather than "any." In iTunes I have a bunch of albums and I can point my smart list at any one of them, in a text box, but iPhoto only offers me a pull-down menu, which offers only "any" This seems crazy and wrong.
Any tips?

Finding all photos not in any album
Hello,
I am a user of PE10.
I imported about 7000 photographs and am organizing them into albums. To ensure I assign all photos to at least one album I would like to display all unassigned photos, i.e. photos not in any album yet, so that I can assign the to albums.
Right now I have to click "Show All" and scroll through 7000 pictures to find ones I have not assigned yet :-( very tedious.
Is there anyway to show only unassigned pgotographs?
TIA,
HermanIn thumbnail view click Show All or launch the Organizer from scratch.
Then click the Find menu and choose the criteria you need.

IPhoto '11 - Create album of photos NOT in any Smart Album
I've searched these forums and couldn't find anything to help me out. I'm using iPhoto '11, and have converted all my albums to smart albums, primarily using keywords. In my old scenario, using albums, I could create a "to file" album of photos that are not in any albums.
However, now that I'm using smart albums, there doesn't seem to be a way to identify a way of finding photos that are not in any pre-defined smart album?
Most of my smart albums rely on two or more keywords (ie. date and event), so I can't use the logic "if it has a keyword", that doesn't get photos missing from any smart album.
Any suggestions on manual or automated ways to do this? It would be nice to have a 'photo not in a smart album' criteria.
Thanks in advance,
JonNo. A Smart Album is really a list of images found in response to a search. So you're looking for images not found by another search, and that's not a criterion for a Smart Album.

Photo app on ipad randomly switches to photos not in the album
I added a new album of photos from my pc to my itunes to use as a slideshow to showcase specific photots. It is the oddest thing, part way through the slideshow it will randomly pull photos not included in the album and show them in the slideshow. Has anyone else encountered this or know why the ipad photo app might be doing this?
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.

How to search which image is not in any albums within a project?
I've created several albums under a project and I would like to see if there's any images that is not being placed in any album yet. I can see there's a 'do not match' option in the search box but I am not sure use it.
Many thanks.What I would do is to give all images in the albums a unique keyword and then set up a filter that;
1. Match
2. Keywords > "do not include any of the following" (and then check the keyword given to all the images inside the albums).
Aperture will then return all the images that does not match that particular keyword.
To have full control of these all the time, I would set the filter up in a Smart Album always showing me those images not part of other albums.

Photos not displaying in albums
Anyone know how to fix this?
All my pictures seem to have been imported from my iPhotos library into the new Photos app - I can see them under the photos tab (by date) and also under the album tab, I can see them in the ALL PHOTOS album. However the pictures that are in the All Photos album are not appearing in their own album (but some are) - as per this screen shot.
And when I open any of the greyed out albums, it looks like this:-
Has anyone else experienced this? And how can I fix it?Yes it's very frustrating, I have the same problem. Its also only started happening recently, I've asked the sender had he changed any settings on his side but he hadn't. I would love a solution to this.

I have created an album of phots, moved into order I want to burn, cd and dvd. It burned out of order in album and also added pictures not in Album highlighted to burn. Also was hard to view all pictures and move more quickly into order to view. I am use to using powerpoint and shows all slides at 1 time small thumnails so easy to move
Re the order on the DIsk:
When you export from iphoto you are in the Finder and that doesn't have the same sorting options as iPhoto. There is no "manual" sorting in the Finder, for instance.
Here's one (of several) way(s) to do what you want:
Make an Album of the photos, then drag the pics into your preferred order.
Then Photos Menu: Batch Change -> Set Title to Text "John's Birthday", for instance, and tick the box to append a number to each Photo. Now your photos are titled 'John's Birthday 001, John's Birthday 002 ... etc'
Then File -> Export and in the Export dialogue set the Filename to "Use Title"
Sort on Filename in the FInder and you end up with a folder full of images in the same order as the Album in iPhoto.
Burn that to the disk.
I'm sorry but I haven't a clue what the rest of your query is about.

Removing Photos Not Used in Albums from Library
Is there a way to filter out the pictures (within the Library) not being used in any of the albums and mark them for deletion? Is this something that either iPhote 6 or that another application might address?
Hi dudestar,
Make a smart album whose conditions are
"album" "is not" "any"
this should give you a smart album of all unassigned images.
You can then use Command Option Delete to delete them from that folder and the library. Then you must empty iPhoto's trash and they will be deleted from the hard drive. -
First of all iphoto has worked fine so far, I am pleased with it. However I created photo albums with photos from my library, but when i open the albums the photos are only showing in the thumnail above the albums with the page mumbers. They are not showing on the actual album pages, I tried dragging onto the album page, but they just go back to thumbnail. I have added pages, use autoflow to assemble my albums. I checked all 113 pages of disucssion site, found a few related problems to mine, but found that they are using iphoto 4 and I have 5, therefore I am afraid to experiment with thier resolves, soas not to delete and loose my potos altogether. I have deleted some from Library, before I discovered the problem. I am just wandering as to where they might be and how can i view them in the album? Can you Help!

Zen Not Displaying ANY Album Art via
Hello, I love my 8gb Zen and always use WMP to sync songs. Everything was fine untill a few weeks ago. I formatted my player via WMP then tried adding songs to it and none of them had album art after that WHY? So frustarting. I'v tried many times and still no art. When I use the Zen sync (offical creative software) it gives art but many mistakes and repeat album arts. Not good. I don't want to add individual album art via a program since it would take forever.
any help is greatly apprciated ?This also happened to me. Though I did a sync over the weekend, to remove a few albums and add a couple of new ones, and some of the old albums were updated and they have album art but not all. I'm guessing it's something to do with WMP but I'm not sure, as long as the music plays fine I can li've without album art.

Find photos in Library that are not in an Album
My mum has made the classic mistake of deleting her images from Albums rather than the Library when using iPhoto.
Anyone know how to find all photos in the Library but not included in albums?
I found a script for iTunes to do a similar thing with tracks not in playlists but can;t find one for photos in iPhoto.
Or, is there another solution?Create a Smart Album with the criteria "Album" is "None". That will give you all photos not in an album. You can move those photos to a regular album and then delete from there by using CommandOptionDelete. That moves them to the iPhoto Trash bin where you'll have to empty the trash.
iPhoto is known to lock up if you try to delete a large number of photos at a time. So just select about 100 at a time to move to the trash and empty.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.
