In the contacts folder, the favorites, how do you rearrange them? Say bring the bottom one to the top?

In the contacts folder, fovorites, how do you rearrange them? Say bring the bottom one to the top.

Hello ... and thanks for  your response.   But I have discovered a couple problems.  And I am sure it is "operator error"
I used your method #1.  The first window that popped up stated that it was making a temporary copy of the catalog.  This took about 20 minutes.
Next, the window showed thumbnail photos on the right and a list of folders in my catalog on the left. The catalog contains folders stored on my LapTop, as well as my external hard drive. 
There appeared to be a distinctive difference between those photo folders stored on the external hard drive and those on my LapTop.   The folders on the external drive were named as I have all my folders named: Date_CustomName.  The folders stored on my LapTop were named as: Lightroom_5 Backup_Date_CustomName or some such combination and my memory is foggy on the actual use of underscore, slash marks, dashes, etc. 
I searched the list closely, and the Folders without a reference to "Lightroom Backup" were not showing.  
So as a test, I "added" to the new Catalog one folder from the external hard drive and two from the LapTop.   After the transfer, the new Catalog had accurately named my external hard drive and the folder within in and the photos and their edits transferred accurately.   The other two folders were not named but listed shown in the library module as grey boxes as images with indications of editing.  But when I clicked on it, there was a notation that popped up that the file could not be found. 
Any ideas? 
I am going to create a second new catalog and try your option #2 now.  
Thanks

  • HT4994 i have normal sim in Nokia and all the contacts are in it, how i can import them in microchip of iPhone 4S

    Hi,
    i have normal sim card in my old Nokia phone and all the contacts are in it, how i can import these contacts to iPhone 4S. The contacts are more than 1000, it is quite hard to transfer them one by one. Please help.

    I did get a notice
    that i couldn't import new photos to my MACBook a few days ago--not enough room.
    How much free space do you have on your hard drive? - Note that you need an absolute minimum of 10GB at all times for normal operation of your computer
    Deleteing photos probably is not the answer - you probably need to purchase an external hard drive and move your iPHoto library (and possibley iTunes library) to it - you can operate that way (be sure the EHD is always available when you launch iPHoto) or you can have a small library on your MB and use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  to move photos between teh internal and external hard drive
    ipmovel
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • On our shared laptop we had three music libraries. When I switched on the laptop this morning they had all gone. They are not in the itunes folder either. How do I get them all back please?

    On Our shared laptop we had three music libraries. When I switch on the laptop this morning there were no libraries in itunes at all. It's as if ituned has installed itself from new and that we never had ipods? As far as I know no updates have been done. I restored the laptop back a couple of days and after restarting it still no libraries. How do I get them back please?

    Try browsing out to and opening these alternate iTunes library using the instructions in this document.

  • Once I fix the thumbnail pictures in iPhoto, how do I make them stay fixed.  Everytime I turn the computer back on iPhoto goes directly back to having 1 picture for all thumbnails.

    I have been having problems with the thumbnail pictures in iPhoto.  It will typically show 1 picture for all thumbnails.  I have figured out how to repair the thumbnail pictures, but everytime the computer is shut down, the thumbnail pics revert back to 1 picture for all.

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    how do you fix the thumbnailsd?
    what other fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • Most of my iTunes library has disappeard. I cannot find them when I search in the iTunes folder either. How can I get them back?

    I had hundreds of songs in my iTunes library, but when I open it now, I have about 40. They were a combination of downloaded songs from the iTunes store and songs loaded from my personal CD collection. I have searched for advice online. I have searched my iTunes folder and my recycle bin, and my songs are no longer there. I did not download a new version or plug in a device. Nothing has changed. Where could my songs be?

  • When i upgraded to the new iPhoto !! how i could restore them ??

    All my photos on the old iPhoto disappeared when i upgraded to the new iPhoto !! how i could restore them ?? also i can see the size of the photos on the Hard disk  which mean my photos are there but i dont know how to find them . i had to use Command + option  when i startup iphoto   but nothing happened

    Simple solution: restore from the back up you made prior to upgrading.
    Other than that:
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.

  • How do I get my new contacts to the contacts folder connected to Icloud?

    When I add new Contacts on my PC, they go to a Contact folder that is not connected to Icloud. It is a Contact folder under "My Contacts". I have to move them over manually the Contact folder that is in the Icloud folder! Also when I double click on an emailaddress to look for the Contact, it looks in the default folder - where I don't have any Contacts (as I move the to the Contact folder connected to Icloud).
    Can I move the Contact folder that is default to the Icloud and then move all Contact over to that one and then delete the one I use now??
    Just afraid to loose the 2800 Contacts I built up during many years (running my own business) !
    Looked for a solution for months... so grateful!

    A little more information would be helpful, like how are you trying to sync, what have you done to set it up, what is your computer type and operating system, what error message do you get when the phone "does not want to sync with the computer"
    If you haven't done so yet it would be helpful to read the manual, specifically the chapter on syncing contacts: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf.

  • How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once. These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says From My Mac. I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.

    How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once? These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says, "From My Mac."
    Someone said create a new empty folder on the computer and sync to that -- didn't work .
    Another person said, "Reset information in settings to restore to the default." That would erase ALL of the conetent I have on the phone and I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.
    There has to be a better way than gong through and deleting one-by-one.

    Go into Settings...Mail, Calendar and Contacts and siwtch off the Contacts section from the account in question.
    The phone should ask you if you want to keep or erase the contacts stored on you phone.
    However, if they aren't synched to anything and only exist on your iPhone, you'll have to delete them all one by one

  • When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?

    When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
    All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
    I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
    Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

  • My daughter has a new ipod touch and when synced it had all of my iphone contacts. she deleted the ones she didn't want and they were removed from my phone as well. How can I get them back if they were deleted from the cloud? I also had them on my pc

    My daughter bought a new ipod touch and when synced received the contacts from my iphone. She deleted the ones she didn't want on her ipod and now they are gone from my iphone. I have the cloud and i thought back up on itunes. I have tried to re-sync and no luck. How can I get my contacts back?

    Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device.  Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud.  If someone deletes them, they are gone.  If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?
