IPhoto 11 - how to combine libraries

Hardware:
Mac Mini
MacBook Pro
MacBook Air
Airport Extreme
Iomega 2TB drive
Mac Mini has some original/imported images,
Mac Mini 'shares' images with MacBook Pro
MacBook Pro also has orignal/imported images.
MacBook Air has nothing.
I want to share all images from the Iomega.
How do I combine all the original images on the Iomega drive, remove from Mac Mini and MacBook Pro AND ensure that i retain all original source images.?
thx!

The only way to merge libraries is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager

  • Not sure how to combine libraries and sync. Help!

    If my wife and I want to combine iTunes libraries and sync all of our devices, what would be the step by step process in doing this? We have 2 MacBook Pros, 2 iPhones, and 1 iPod Classic. I just don't know what the first step should be. I don't want to lose any music. Please help! Thanks

    No that will not work. What you may want to consider is using reflaction to create an instance of a sort class and have the sort classes implement a sort interface.
    Example:
    public Sorter createSorter(String name){
    Sorter sort = (Sorter) Class.forName(name).newInstance();
    return sort;
    The Sorter interface would include these methods:
    public void sort();
    public void add(Object obj);
    ect

  • Combining libraries with IPhoto 9.5.1

    OK, I've been reading other older posts, so hoping someone can help me with newer versions....I have libraries from an old computer, thumbdrive, desktop, etc, some IPhoto versions are quite old...I want to combine all onto an external drive and make a copy that I keep somewhere else. Since I have an old MacBook Pro (2010) version 10.9.5 (I don't want to upgrade to Yosemite), I want to have my computer look for the library on this external drive and not have all those photos on my laptop. That's what I did with my old desktop...anyway...the issue is how to combine all these libraries which actually have the same name....

    First copy all of the libraries you want to merge onto your external hard drive.  It should be formatted OS X Extended (journaled).  Upgrade all of the libraries to the same version of iPhoto that your current working library is. Rename each library before copying it to the EHD so they don't overwrite each other.
    Once that's done you can use the paid version of  iPhoto Library Manager to merge the multiple libraries into a new library.

  • In the iMovie 11 event library, how can I get the iPhoto video clips to combine with my camcorder pics listed below and in chronological order?

    In the iMovie 11 event library, how can I get the iPhoto video clips to combine with my camcorder pics listed below and in chronological order?

    Try forcing iPhoto to load the Library on the External Hard drive by launching it while holding down the Option key. Choose the Library on the External HD, and quit iPhoto, see if iMovie can see the Library with the iPhoto Videos contained inside.

  • How can I combine libraries in iMovie

    Can one combine libraries in iMovie 11?  I have look/read an not found an answer.

    in addendum to AppleMan's reply:
    'Titles' are short texts; a) because a TV is no 'Kindle' b) video, by standards offers a sub-optimal resolution/'quality'.
    Although, you can apply 'bigger chunks' of text as a picture:
    if your word-processor in use allows 'export page as jpg', use that.
    for example, Keynote/iWork creates beautiful designed 'charts'
    text made in Keynote
    export as jpg
    imported to iMovie
    applying Ken Burns would allow 'scrolling text' with pictures.
    keep in mind:
    a video-screen is 2nd-best for reading longer texts.
    and, again, 'video' isn't meant for reading either.
    avoid serif typo, avoid tiny typo, avoid high contrast (red on white), avoid low contrast (grey on black).

  • Some Ideas On Organizing/Maintaining Photos via iPhoto? How do YOU do it?

    I posted a couple of technical questions last week concerning iPhoto and how it handles files, thumbnails, EXIF data, and photo originals/copies (as http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11425805). Terence Devlin and LarryHN gave me the answers I needed. From their answers, I now have an understanding of the default method iPhoto utilizes to manage and maintain photo libraries.
    Those answers have led me to a couple more questions, mostly regarding how I can best organize and maintain my photos via iPhoto within a multiple Operating System household. My massive music collection is easy... I manually maintain and organize my music files via iTunes. I can download music and fix tags in XP or OSX. I store the results on my Windows-based file server and share the iTunes library. On my MacBookPro, I have an iTunes Library that references the directories on the server. Or, I can just access the "shared" iTunes library. Same with my Ubuntu machine (with some anomalies.) Both Windows and OSX have versions of iTunes. Not so with iPhoto.
    So, by default, importing my photos into iPhoto will make "copies" as well as a proprietary database containing the EXIF changes I make within iPhoto. I don't see that as the best scenario for me.
    What would YOU suggest? How about storing my photos on my file server and pointing iPhoto to the location in "Referenced Mode?" This seems to be similar to how I manage my music. Yes, I know that if I change a filename or path that the library will loose track of it. I deal with this in iTunes. Occasionally, If I make a bunch of changes, I just delete my iTunes library and re-load. But that's the beauty of iTunes... if I change MP3 tag data using iTunes, the changes are made within the MP3 file itself. So if I loose the library, who cares?
    I was hoping to use iPhoto in a similar way: Make changes (places, faces, etc) and have iPhoto save the data within the EXIF fields of the photo itself. That way if I move the photo around, or restore from a backup, ot loose the iPhoto library, so be it!
    Unlike iTunes, it sounds like if I loose my iPhoto library, I loose all my metadata as well (unless I "export" the photo from within iPhoto?) PLUS I need to maintain the original photos and the iPhoto copies... unless I use Referenced Mode.
    How about some organizational ideas/inspiration/guidance? Help me tidy up my sloppy photo collection.

    Key points
    1 - iPhoto has NO cross platform capabilities
    2 - iPhoto is not well oriented to managing referenced libraries

    You have to maintain both in either a referenced or managed library - but in an referenced library the originals are your responsibility to maintain and to keep the path constant

    Probably iPhoto is not the correct solution for your needs

  • I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive.  I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto.  How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive?

    I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive.  I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto.  How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive in Iphoto?

    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • How to combine two datarows (business component data) in BI Publisher

    Hi ,
    We are using BI Publisher in Siebel Environment.
    We have data coming from two business components (like from 2 diff tables)
    a) <?for-each:ssTest1?>
    b) <?for-each:ssTest2?>
    ssTest1 and ssTest2 are the business components
    We need to combine these 2 datarows (a&b) and show the data into a single combined data row for ex like <?for-each:ssTest1ssTest2?> and show all the fields in that.
    I'm not sure how we can combine these two data rows into a single combined data row and show the data.
    Any help from any one would be apprecated.
    Thanks

    Hi sajid
    There was nothing more description about your issue in this site and I found an issue below is mostly like yours
    http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/855487/how-to-combine-two-table-value-in-rdlc-report
    In the issue above, if you want to show the two other tables in the report, I think you could combine the tables into one datatable joining on key. The link below show an example of a DataSet Helper from Microsoft about combine DataSets. Take note of
    the related content for other DataSet Helper examples. And then you could use the datatable in your RDLC.
    # HOW TO: Implement a DataSet JOIN helper class in Visual C# .NET
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326080/en-us
    In an alternative way, I think you could create a view in the database which combine your tables and use it in your rdlc.
    In addition, your issue is about asp.net and you could get more support in the asp.net forum whose link as below.

  • Does anyone know how to combine two apple ID's together?

    I have found out that I have two Apple ID's! One is for my apps on my iphone and the other is for iTunes.  Somehow they are set to different email addresses but are being sent to the same email address.  Does anyone know how to combine them, so I use just one Apple ID?

    This is my solution too.
      You see, what I also downloaded all the free apps I have on iPhone to this account I choose to use, so this way I didn't need to change accounts (of course it was on the iOS 5 times)

  • My Sony mp3 player synced with my iphoto. How do I unsync it? It no longer shows up as a device in my Finder window.

    I plugged my Sony mp3 player into my mac mini, Snow Leopard, and it synced with my iphoto. Now it does not show up as a device anywhere, not even iphoto. When I plug in the mp3 via its usb, it opens iphoto. How do I stop this and get it back as a device in my Finder window so I can load songs on it again.

    Turns out my Mac put code on the mp3 player because after I reset the mp3 player to its 'factory settings', (erasing everything) it went back to normal and now shows up in the finder window.

  • How to combine sales and delivery data

    hi
    i have requirement to make a report from sales as well as deliveries. Important fields in report are sales document , material , plant , sales document type , country key , sold to party , ordered quantity , delivered quantity , price from vakon ( KBETR ), actual goods issue date.
    The required extractors are 2LIS_11_VASCL, 2LIS_11_V_SSL ,2LIS_11_VAKON.
    Problem is how to combine sales and delivery data as V_SSL has different key figures.Multicube is not the solution as dont have plant , sold to party and many other fields in V_SSL.
    Kindly suggest how to combine sales and deivery data.
    Regards,
    Monika

    I guess you do have shipping point in delivery.
    In most scenarios shipping point may not(or) may be same like order plant.
    Although they are different you can still roll up the delivery information to order level by plant since you have order # available as reference key in delivery.
    With this reference key you can convert all delivery information to order (item) level.
    I guess you can use one merge ODS with one cube (or) with 2 ODS for each at order level for validation.
    You may have to map delivery type to order type as per R3 configuration as well.
    speak with any Logistics guys for help.
    cheers

    Hi mohan,
    1. Its very impractical,
       especially in SAP HR Tables,
       to directly get data from tables using joins.
    2. In your case,
       first read from infotype 0001
       using direct select statement,
       (or u can use HR_READ_INFOTYPE)
    3. After wards, LOOP / FOR ALL ENTRIES IN
       and then read from the other required tables HRP1000.
    regards,
    amit m.
