Is there a way to import photos to the iPad and put in an album without having the photo also in the Camera Roll? I have a photo transfer app but when I import the album and photos they are also shown in the CR. When you delete them from CR they are deleted from the album too.

You can sync photos from your computer via iTunes, and each folder that you sync will get its own album : syncing photos. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next sync.
In terms of albums that you create directly on the iPad no, effectively you are just creating pointers to the photos in those new albums, so if you delete the original photo you will therefore also be deleting all pointers to it.
You could consider a third-party photo management app instead e.g. Photo Manager Pro

How to import photos and keep album structure?

Hi all -
I had to do a clean install of OS X, but beforehand, I backed up my entire hard drive using Super Duper.
Now, I want to import all of my photos back into iPhoto, but is there a way for me to do this and keep the previous album structure that I have? I tried dragging the IPhoto library folder into iPhoto and it imported the photos, but my albums are gone.
Thanks for your help!

Hi.
Trash the iPhoto Library folder that you created on your Mac, or rename it "iPhoto Library damaged" if you may need some of its contents. Copy the iPhoto Library folder from the backup into your Pictures folder. Hold down the Option key as you launch iPhoto and select "Choose Library" from the dialog. Navigate to the good iPhoto Library folder and open. iPhoto should launch and open your library in exactly the same condition it was in when the backup was made. If all goes well you don't have to import anything.
If the library is still missing items, you can try a database rebuild. Hold Command and Option while you launch, select the first 3 options in the dialog, and rebuild. This can fix a library with a slightly damaged database.
If the library still isn't working you may have to create a new library (Option-Launch, select "Create") and import your Originals folder from the backup library. This will give you the pictures back without creating duplicates, but your albums and other items will not be recovered.
Regards.

Import photoes into existing album

After upgrade to 10.6, IPhoto no longer gives me to the option to import photos to an exisiting album. Any way around that other than merging events after the import?

You talk about both albums and events - which do you mean? They are not the same
You can not (and never have been able to ) import photos into an existing event - an imp[ort will always create one or more events - then yu can merge, split, etc the events
Albums are logical things that can be created during an import (along with an event) but usually are subjects so you add imported photos to them later

Importing Photos from Pictures Album revisited

Quite a while ago, I posted a question about my Aperture's lack of ability to import from the "Pictures" folder.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1540299&tstart=0
I took a close look today, and I solved the problem. I noticed that when I navigated to the Pictures folder, there were only two entries, and neither of them actually existed in my Pictures. Further, when I selected them, Aperture told me it couldn't find specific folders within *the iPhoto library*. Whoa!
So, somehow, there is a rogue AlbumData.xml file in my Pictures folder. This file belongs in an iPhoto library, but it somehow ended up (accidental drag and drop? iPhoto Library Manager? Maybe I'll never know) at the top level of Pictures. Aperture then mistook my entire Pictures folder for an iPhoto library, and a broken one at that. It did not parse any other folder in the Pictures folder because, well, it was an iPhoto library.
Solution? Get rid of the AlbumData.xml file in Pictures. Now I can import from Pictures!

Terence,
I have a folder called "Panos" containing the photos I want as referenced. When I drag that folder into the "Documents" shortcut in Finder, my path (According to "Get Info" of one of the photos) is
/Users/nathananderson/Documents/Panos
In this case, I can navigate to the Panos folder from Aperture and import photos.
When I put my photos into Pictures, the path is:
/Users/nathananderson/Pictures/Panos
And using Aperture, I navigate to the Pictures folder that is in the same level as Documents. Aperture shows me nothing but "Last Import" and "Library". There is no other folder to select!
When composing this message, I also found out that I have three other folders in my Pictures folder. These other three folders are not Aperture or iPhoto library folders, and they are also unavailable for "Import Photos" from Aperture.

Importing Photos From Photoshop Album To Photoshop Elements 9

I recently transfered about 14,000 photos from Adobe Photoshop Album into a new computer with Photoshop Elements 9 installed. In Photoshop Album, I often edited my photos and saved the originals. However, only the edited version appeared on the organizer screen. With Photoshop Elements installed, a thumbnail appeared for each Album-edited photo on the organizer screen as a version set with tags and photo description in place but no image. In most cases clicking on the black right-pointed arrow brings up another imageless box (to the right of the previous thumbnail) that is identical to the first one, tags and all. In a few other cases, the edited image appears to the right with tags. The latter isn't too bad since I can delete the original imageless thumbnail from the organizer.
I have tried importing a couple of files of photos from the new hard drive into the organizer. I get the original which is tagged and the edited photos untagged. I want to be able to bring up my edited photos when I use certain keyword tags rather than the originals so don't have to hunt for them in the organizer. At the same time, I want to avoid having to retag several thousand edited photos. Can anyone help. Thanks for reading this message.

Hi Fred,
I don't recommend using this software for anything other than
cataloging. If you want to move your images you should consider
Photoshop Elements because it is meant to perform this activity. PSA SE
is just a little cataloging applet that would get really confused if you
even tried it. You would have to completely redo your catalog.
Cheers

Missing imported photos and their albums

Hi, and thanks in advance.
I've been using my iMac and iPhoto for about a year, with a (now) huge photo library. There have been no problems, and it's organized as I need it to be.
Yesterday, I imported 4 new events, from 2 iPhones and 2 Canon cameras. All worked fine. I added comments, established albums, added keywords all as normal. Fine.
This morning, I get in to iPhoto, and all of my new work is gone. In fact, there's nothing there since about January, which is just not right.
I've not had to get tremendously talented with Mac OS, so I'm not even sure where to start with this. I did force Time Machine to run each time I added the photos, but (stupidly) I have deleted them off the phones and cameras.
Have I lost my trip photos? If not, where can I find them on the original disk, or from within Time Machine (which I've never had to resort to before.) Lastly... what happened and how do I keep it from ever happening again?!
Thanks again, I appreciate all the help.

Am I to understand that something has failed then, at this point? Is rebuilding my only option, it's not that I've failed to open the correct file somewhere, or anything simple? I
It is likely that you have some corruption of the database file and it has "forgotten" the changes since January.
Is rebuilding my only option, it's not that I've failed to open the correct file somewhere, or anything simple?
I doubt that you have failed to open the correct file, that would mean you have duplicate libraries. Really, few things are more simple than Option 1.
(we've added almost 60k photos, and Apple had told me there was no upper limit.
There is an upper limit - 250,000 images, so you have a little headroom just yet.
Is there any point in my trying to learn how Time Machine works, and going back to a (functional) iPhoto library from last evening?
Do you have a TM Back Up? Then yes, restoring it is the best solution after option 1.
By backup, do you mean copying the entire iPhoto file in user, prior to relaunching iPhoto and trying to rebuild the library?
Yes.
is there a way for me to physically find the .jpg files I dumped last night into iPhoto, as these are my only copies of the photographs.
Yes there is, of course, but it's best to see if you can restore or repair that Library. If you cannot, then you're back to square one - making a new library and starting over from scratch. But that should not be necessary.
Anyway to get to them:
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.

Is mobile me the only app where I can upload photos to create albums to share?

Also, when I try to open the Gallery appl it does not accept the MobileMe ID and password I set up when I downloaded "find my iPad". What gives?

Julian has your answer above. May I add in hope of further understanding...

All iOS devices (iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad) run an OS that is basically a fancy web browser. Even with it's larger screen the iPad is not a computer, in a traditional sense, with huge computing power and customizability like a laptop or a desktop system. So, in short when you used Safari on your iPad, you were trying to download an application for a desktop/laptop running MacOS which would never work on your iPad.

When importing iPad photos into Aperture, I cannot import into an existing album, only create a new project.

I dont want to create a new project for every group of photos being brought over from my iPad. My iPhone worked perfectly. I was able to choose which project/album I could import into, why would the iPad, running the same iOS, be any different?

Hi Dave,
Welcome to the user-support Aperture discussion forum.
You would probably benefit from reading Kirby's introduction: [http://discussions.apple.com/messageview.jspa?messageID=13124533&stqc=true]
Is there any way to simply import photos into those albums without having to create all of those annoying projects?
That's a loaded question. It's not "yes or no" according to exactly how you asked it.
You do not have to create a new project for each import, but every picture lives in exactly 1 project. You can then point to any photo from any number of albums. You cannot put a photo directly into an album because an album does not contain photos, it only contains "pointers" to photos.
So, you, as the user, have the ability to put your imports into an existing project. Why are you creating a new project every time?

Adobe Flash crash when I try to upload some photos to create an album on Facebook . I think this issue related to the new version of Mozilla Firefox that I had installed 3 days ago and cause my system not able to open the internet . But I have sent a rep

Did you reinstall CS3 after CC?
For that matter, doing an in-place upgrade on the OS is always a gamble with Adobe programs. Reinstalling all the versions you need, in order, would probably solve your problem.
And you shouldn't need to save as IDML after opening the .inx in CC.

IPhoto - Can no longer drag photos from Library to created Albums..

Up until last week I had no problem dragging photos from my Library to Albums I'd created on the right side. All of a sudden I can no longer drag photos and have to put photos in Albums by clicking on desired photos and creating Album with + button on bottom right corner. Why doesn't it let me drag photos anymore??

HI gkkennedy and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
I can't tell you why this is happening but I can offer up a possible solution. Sometimes the preference folders associated with applications become corrupted. Here's how to fix that. Locate this file and drag it to the Trash: com.apple.iPhoto.plist It's here: /Home/Library/Preferences. Open the Preferences folder and drag it to the Trash, empty the Trash and reboot. Launch iPhoto and see if you can drag photos from the Library to an album ... Don't worry... your Mac will create a new preference file for you.

How do you import photos from the iPhoto library albums on the Mac to lightroom 5---i hit import but have no idea where to find iPhoto albums

how do you import photos from iPhoto albums on the mac to lightroom 5

Have you used the built-in migration plug-in? I'm not sure how LR handles iPhoto albums or events. there have been several reports indicating varying levels of success or otherwise, with import.
See my comments on this similar thread which also has a link to users comments on the LR journal blog.

Most efficient way to import pictures into different albums?

Hello, It seems like I have run into a little unpractical trouble.
My problem is that I have a lot (really, a lot) of folders on my harddrive filled with images that I wish to import into iPhoto. In iPhoto, they would be put into albums namned after the folder from which they were imported. However, I've been looking around in Automator and in these forums, but I just cannot seem to find a way to do this automatically. Manually creating an album, namning it, and then importing the images would take a substantially longer time than what it's worth.
So, I turn to you. How can I make this process happen as efficiently as possible?

Start with the lowest level of folders, if they are nested. Drag them from the Finder into the open iPhoto window, and drop them directly into the Source Pane. This will import the photos and create albums with the same names as the folders, all in one step. You can drag more than one folder at a time, just don't try it with folders that have subfolders.
Regards.

Recent imported photos cannot be edited nor will they show on slideshow. Help

I am running Iphoto 09 on Macbook Pro OSX 10.6.8 snow leopard recent imported photos in my album cannot be edited nor will they show on slideshow while others in the same album do. if I open the picture from slide show I get a screen displaying a white ! and the show displays a black screen until the next picture moves up. Older imported pictures in other albums play fine in slideshow and can be edited. Is there some hidden settings I need to change to allow me to edit these particular photos and use them in my slideshow?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
