In Photoshop V5 -How do I keep photos in the same order when Exporting a Collection to a Folder

Hi
In order to resize photos ready for Premiere Elements, I am Exporting my Collection to a folder, from the Organiser.
I then resize that Folder using Process multiple Files.
I then can import that Folder into PE.
BUT, the export seems to change the photo order to an apparent random order.
The Collection is in the right order, and there seems no options in the export dialogue to impact the order in the exported file.
Thanks
Chris
PS I am about to upgrade to version 7, but would like to get my process sorted out before then. maybe 7 does it differently.

Hi DJ
Thanks for the quick reply.
The good news is that what you suggest simplifies my process a lot. So thanks for that.
The bad news in the order in still wrong. I.E it's not as the collection order, but it is the same order as the Process Multiple file route!
So a step forward, but not quite there yet.
Thanks so far!
Chris

How do you keep photos in the same sequence in the iPhone as they are in the folder on the PC??

When I sync my photos they are listed alphabetically (by folder) and within the folders, listed alphabetically again by the name assigned to the photo. The only way I can think of to keep the order that you have in your computer would be to assign a letter as a prefix to each photo. If you have more than 26 photos in a folder, you can double the letters, etc. I think that will keep the photos in the order you want.

Keep photos in the same order that they appear in an iPhoto album?

I am uploading photos from an iPhoto album to Google+. I want to keep the photos in the same order that they are appear in the album, but the order is rearranged. ANy idea on how to keep photos in the same order?
Thanks.

If the photos are sorted by file name by Google+ you'll need to rename them in iPhoto via the Photos ➙ Batch Rename ➙ Title to Text menu with the checkbox checked to add a sequential number to the end of the file name:
Export them to a folder on the Desktop via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu with File Name = Use Title:

How do I keep photos in a particular order when burning to disc?

I made an Album in iPhoto5 of 200 photos from a recent trip. The photos in the Album don't follow the sequence I shot them. I want the photos to stay in the new order I've given them, and I'd like to include titles to help explain many of the pictures. When I put the photos into a folder in Finder to burn them, they go out of order. Can I asign sequential numbers to this Album and still retain the titles? How do I keep them in order??? Thanks

Hi Tom,
You should be able to make a slidshow almost as easy as what you're trying to do right now... it'll take some pratice
Personally, I have both exported a slideshow from iPhoto to iDVD and also created a slideshow directly in iDVD, the latter is a better fit for what you're doing.
Open iDVD, create new project, name as you like and save, will auto open to work window, click on 'customize', pick a theme you like. Now click on 'Map' and in the customize pane click on 'Media'. In the media pane you have itunes, photos and movie, select photos... you're iPhoto library will appear along with all the albums you might have created and organized. Here's what makes it sweet, you can drag each album into the 'Map' Theme icon and it will automatically import and turn into a slideshow and take on the name of the album... to see your progess hit the Preview button... you'll have to do a little learning and tweaking, you can add music etc., but that's it, you made a slide show ready to burn to a dvd...
My suggestions would be to organize albums as you like, named appropriately and just have fun with it. You can save and go back and edit at a later date. Use the highlight and delete or cut options to remove etc etc etc...
You can burn project using the File > Burn DVD option or you can save the FINAL production use the File > Save As Disk Image option, and you can burn the DVD through disk utility which will give you more options on burn speed and buring at 1x speed may yield the best results...

How do I keep my selections the same size when placing in another picture?

Using PSE 4, I am trying to take my head from one picture (Using the selection tool, etc) and place it in another. The problem is, whenever I try to do that, it changes sizes; gets smaller. Yesterday, I tried to take a part of larger picture and place it into a smaller picture. I tried to resize the background picture but it made the cutout I placed on top of it humungous. I just want to know, is there anyway to keep the actual size of something you cut out, and place in another picture, that same size no matter what? By the way, I have literally been using PSE 4 for 3 days. If you answer, please speak in layman's terms as much as possible. Thank You.

The size, in pixels, is staying the same. Most of the time, this is the way you should think of image size. Working in inches is only meaningful when you are about to print.
In your example, if the piece you have added is too small, select it and use Transform to make it bigger. This is upsampling, so quality may be compromised.

Help!! How do you keep objects in the same order in a 20 page doc when inserting a new object?

I am creating a catalog of pictures only, as objects.
They are organized alphabetically, 4 images per page as a 2x2 grid, for 20 pages.
I want to insert a NEW object (image) in the middle of these 20 pages, and want all the objects after it to shift over one spot to make room.
How do I get the objects after the inserted ones to shift, as text would if you inserted more text in the middle of a paragraph?
I can't figure out how do do that (without just putting the images in a text box and in-line, but then I lose all the spacing controls)...
Thank you!
Lawrence

ID ships with a free Image Catalog script in the sample scripts. You don't need to buy one.
And that isn't going to do what you want, exactly. You'd have to re-run the script each time you add an image to make a new file, and you don't get to set the sort order yourself.

How do I keep photos is a specific order when you burn to disc

I have placed forty pics in a folder, and arranaged them in a specific order for a client. When I burn them to a CD, they return to numeric order, based on the number assigned by my camera. Is there any way to have the pics remain in the order I wish them to be?
Flip

I'm not sure how you did the burn but one way to have control would be to drag the photos to a desktop folder, arrange them in that folder the way you want them, select the folder and burn it to CD - or DVD. I believe that that will work
Another way, I believe would be to rename the photos so that when they sort they come into the order you want (photo #1, Photo #2 etc)

How to export an album and keep images in the same order in elements 11 mac

I made an album of my trip to Australia (lots of pictures) and changed the order of the images (not the same as shooting order) and when I export the images in the album to a folder or memorystick, the images are copied to that place but I lost the album order of the images.
How can I prevent that, without having to renumber al 500 images separatly?
Gr Jos

Thanks for the tip, Michel
It worked like a charm…
cheers Jos

The order in album is only kept in the organizer database, so the only way not to lose that order is to rename files.
If you are using the 'export' function, select your album in custom order, select all photos and in the dialog, choose to rename with a common base name.

How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

iDVD does not care about file sizes, as it compresses the file to the standard DVD format of mpeg2.
It only cares about length i.e. max 2 hours including titles etc.
iDVD encoding settings:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
Short version:
Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

Now that the photo gallery in MobileMe is ending, is there another photo sharing site to which existing iPhoto albums can be transferred as is, with photos in the same order and with titles, and with minimal problems?

Now that the photo gallery in MobileMe is ending, is there another photo sharing site to which existing iPhoto albums can be transferred as is, with photos in the same order and with titles, and with minimal problems?

No. If you don't have the album you originally used to create the galleries you can do so by dragging the photos from each gallery to a new, empty album. Then when you find the photo sharing site/option you have decided on you can easily upload each album to the site.
Another option is to obtain a hosting service and create iWeb photo pages for each album and future albums similar to this photo page in one of my demo sites: iPhoto Book as an iWeb Slideshow. Or you can use the iWeb album page and have an album for each iPhoto album on it like on this demo page: Page-7 .

Using Aobe Photoshop Elements 6: 1. How to download photos in the same order as on the smart card from which I downloaded them? 2. Changing the date on each photo

Using Adobe Photoshop Elements 6:
1. How can I get the 2000 photos I downloaded in the same order as on the smart card from which I downloaded them? (This will help me label them correctly)
2. How can I change the date on each photo? (I want to sort by date the picture was taken, not the date it was downloaded.
Thank you!

You indicated that the images "seemed" to be in the right order. It might be a good idea to rename the images on export using a custom name/sequence. If you have done that and the images are still not in order, it's possible that your operating system browsing window is using a different sort order. I sometimes change windows explorer to sort by file type, and then files are sometimes in what seems be a strange order.

How do you share photos on the same computer between users???

Hello,
I would like to know how to share photos on the same computer between users...
My wife and I have different user accounts on our iMac and I can't figure out how to share photos.
I tried everything as told by Apple but it seems you can only share photos on your iMac with a network. If that is what I understand...
I just want to have all the photos on my user account and when my wife is on her user account I want her to be able to view the photos.
Again, we are only using one iMac.
Thank you for your help in advance...

For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
What you mean by 'share'.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

Does not display photos in the same order they appear on my PC

I have photos on my Windows PC running iTunes.
I can successfully get AppleTV to display the photos on my HDTV, but they are not always in the same order as they appear in my PC photos folder.
And I am not displaying the photos 'randomly'.

Spare yourself the frustration, use 3rd party apps like Photo Manager Pro. You can drag your photos around.
