IPhoto and iPad question.

I am using iPhoto on my iPad. How can you create an Album in iPhoto? I can share, email, creat journals, etc....but how can I take photos uploaded on my iPad sitting in photo stream, and creat an album out of them?

As far as I know you can't use home sharing to view photos in the iPhoto on the iPad, you will need to copy the photos onto the iPad - which you can do by connecting the iPad to your Mac, selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and then using the Photos tab on the right-hand side of iTunes to select which photos to sync.
There may be third-party photo apps that support browsing a directory on your Mac

New MacBook Air and iPad question

Hi everyone,
I purchased a Macbook in 2009 and have today upgraded to a brand new MacBook Air. My question is about my iPhone and iPad and keeping these up to date. Both are running iOS 5 so I do all updates by wifi which is easy and fast. Although prior to iOS 5 of course I had to connect these to my Macbook and update that way. At this stage I am still setting up my new Air and just wonder if there is even any need to connect either device to it? I have the music that I want on both devices and new used my Macbook to download any apps, I always do them directly on each device. So do I need to set up either on there? At this stage I think no but I am just wondering if I am forgetting something.
Many thanks

What 'app'?
If you owned them before they are free.

IPhoto and iWeb Question

If you create an album in iPhoto and you decide to also publish it as a MobileMe Gallery you will see both in the left hand sidebar in iPhoto - the regular album and the published album - all is well.
You are able to drop EITHER of these into an iWeb photopage. Here is teh question:
Is there any advantage/disadvantage to using one of these albums as "the iweb one"?
I ask as I dropped a gallery which is posted on MobileMe and then WITHIN iWeb I started to delete some of the pictures within that album - not sure if that updates the album in iPhoto/MobileMe or not but it made me think that perhaps this isn't the best way to do it. Any thoughts appreciated.
Steve

Steve:
If you create a MMe gallery from an album you will have both the album and MMe gallery in the left hand iPhoto pane. The MMe gallery icon can be seen in the Media browser in iWeb but the photos are not viewable nor is it able to be dragged into any iWeb page. You need either an album or event to be able to drag into iWeb.
If you drag an album into iWeb and then delete photos from it the album in iPhoto is not affected nor would the MMe gallery created by that album.

Just received replacement iPhone and trying to set up. Can't get photostream photos to show up on new iPhone even though all 1800 pics show up on Mac iPhoto and iPad photostream. What can I do to view my photos on my phone?

How can I get my photostream from Mac and iPad to show up on my new iPhone 4 replacement. Broke my iPhone and received a new one but can't get it set up to see my photostream. Can anyone help?

If her data was not backed up or synced to something, it's gone. Sorry.

IOS5 and iPad question

I just upgraded my iTunes and iPad to be on iOS5. My iPad no longer syncsmovies or photos - iTunes indicates they are synced, but nothing on the ipad. HELP! It also appears the only way to see music content from iTunes is to now upload to the Cloud. This doesn't make any sense to me.

I also had a lot of problems after ios 5. Go back andcheck your settings in itunes. Make sure you have the movies and photos added to the library and have them selected to sync. Then resync and you shoulb be ok.

Mail IOS 7.0.4 in IPhone and iPad question

I have been noticing that when I receive mail from this one company I only get the mails on my desktop. I do not get them on my IPhone OR my IPad. I already know that if I open the received mails on my desktop I will NOT see them on my IPhone or IPad but I purposely looked in my mail on my desktop amd see I recieved 3 mails from the same company, I did NOT open them so I then checked my mails on my IPhone and IPad and see all my other mails come in fine but the 3 from this ONE company do not show up on my IPhone or IPad.
I'm thinking this is a setting?
I have an IPhone 5 and an IPAd2 both running IOS 7.0.4
any other info needed I can supply. I'm going out of town I need to make sure I'm able to get mail from this company as it is toed to my job.
Thx
RD

I just checked the settings on my Iphone and "Delete from server is set to never" ( it has always been this way)
I do not see "Delete from server" on my IPad settings
I also changed that preference on my desktop "mail settings" I will let you know if that does the trick.

Air Display and iPad Question

I am thinking about using Air Display on my iPad and on my iMac so my iPad can serve as a second monitor.
From reading as much as I can find about Air Display, I see that the 2 systems communicate via WiFi.
My question - I am assuming both systems communicate from one IP address to the other. If both IP addresses are on the same LAN, does the communications remain within the local network or do they go out on the internet and back in? My internet connection is via satellite and has a finite download limit per month. If the communications goes out on the internet and then back into my LAN, I would have a capacity problem.
At $30 for both software pieces, I would rather have this question answered before I spend the money and do my own testing. Surely someone has made this test before.
Thanks
Adrian

Hi Adrian.
First, for faster responses, please contact our support team at http://avatron.com/support. I just happened onto your message here because it showed up in a Google Alert, but I often ignore those because they're mostly breaking news about Royal Air Force air displays in the UK and whatnot.
Anyway, two things:
First, Air Display won't cost you $30. You only pay for the client (the part that runs on the machine that will be used as a monitor). The host software is absolutely free. So, if you are using an iPad as a monitor for your iMac, you would only pay $9.99 for the iOS client. If you are using a Mac as a monitor for another Mac, you would buy the Mac app for $19.99 in the Mac App Store (or from our web site).
Second, Air Display does not route your data through any device outside your local network. You can even run on an ad hoc network between your iMac and your iPad. No Internet connection is necessary. The only communication to the Internet is for administrative tasks, like when the host software periodically checks our server to see if a software update is available.
Cheers!

IPhoto and iPad

Can anyone recommend their preferred Application to do organizing on their iPad and then sync their photos back to iPhoto. I am having a hard time finding an app that does this. To be more specific - I'm less concerned about "editing" on the iPad - more to adjust titles, tags, etc.
Thanks.

Have you looked at Pixelsync? Here's the website:

IPhoto and iPad sync

I put photos into iPhoto on my mac....then synced them with my iPad. Later I went into my mac and made a bunch of edits and enhancements....however, when I synced again with my iPad, none of the edits show up. What gives?

Seems like your edits should have been synced to your iPad. But you might try this.
Sync, but delete the albums on your iPad containing the photos you have changed on your Mac.
The sync again and reload those albums.

IPhoto and Podcast questions

Hello,
Just got my brand new MacBook Pro, its a real screamer. I like it.
I transferred all my docs and apps from my PowerBook G4 using a firewire cable. No problem, after 90 minutes everything was there. Nice.
However, I have a couple of problems. When I update my iPod w/video 60GB in the MacBook Pro, iTunes tells me: "Podcasts on the iPod 'xxx' cannot be updated because all of the podcasts selected for updating no longer exist." I can access and update my subscribed podcasts via iTunes Ok, so I don't know what is going on.
The second issue is that in iPhoto I cannot drag and drop a photo from my library directly to the desktop. Before, with my PowerBook G4, when I dragged a pic a green plus sign showed up and when released on the desktop, the pic copied automatically there. This doesn't happen with my MacBook Pro. Is there a setting somewhere for this?
Thanks for any help in advance.

Any ideas, please.

Synch photo Events between iPhoto and iPad.

I synch my iPhoto Events with my iPad. With one Event, many of the photos I have deleted from the iPhoto Event still show in the iPad Event. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Applologies, I have since discovered the 'export' function in the file menu, so I've solved my problem.

Sharing Photo's between Aperture and iPhoto and syncing to iPads, etc

Here is my problem.
I have 5 Macs (1 iMac, 4 laptops.) There are 4 people in my family and we have the family pack of iLife. The iMac is where everything sits with a time capsule and Drobo hanging off of it - about 6 TB's of data. Each Mac sync's with a variety of iPods, iTouchs and iPads. All linked to a user. So for example, all my oldest son's devices sync with only his laptop.
Well, I finally fixed my media (songs, movies, TV shows, etc) problem by leveraging home share in iTunes and authorizing all my Macs. But not so lucky yet for Photo's.
Here is the my photo dilemma.
I like Aperture for the editing and ability to handle large libraries better. So I have Aperture installed on the iMac where everything sits. iPhoto is also installed on the iMac and iPhoto is on all 4 other laptops. Prior to moving to Aperture, sharing photo's between computers was relatively easy using sharing in iPhoto - although it appears sharing in iPhoto is different than home share in iTunes. I converted my iPhoto library on the iMac to Aperture - now sharing is a pain in the neck.
Ideally, a Home Share like feature would be built into Aperture and iPhoto with another feature that would allow you to "check for new photos" on the laptops and pull them into Aperture - but wishful thinking right now.
So my while my 2 new iPads are awesome - they are basically useless for Photo's as they are synced to 2 laptops that use iPhoto, but all my Photos are in Aperture on the iMac.
Thoughts anyone????
Thanks

What was the question?

New iPad 2 (gen 3) blank thumbnails in iPhoto and Photos

I have a new iPad 2 (2012 / generation 3) and it is very nice :-)
It also displays photos very well. However, I find that I have a problem with some of the photos that I have imported via iTunes ( Sync Photos from myfolder ). Although all of the photos display correctly (full size) in both the iPhoto and in Photos apps, some of the thumbnails are blank in both apps.
The same folder of photos synced to my iPhone 4 does not exhibit the same problems.
Some of the photos were taken by a Canon EOS 1000D, but others were taken by an iPhone 3S and an iPhone 4.
My iTunes (10.6.0.40 ) runs on Windows
Anyone have any ideas about what is happening here?
Thanks

There is an iPhoto for iOS section on these forums. Your question has been asked there as well. I'm also experiencing one of my photos showing the correct thumbnail in Photos but a blank thumbnail in iPhoto for iOS. So far I haven't read about any fix yet.
You might consider leaving feedback for Apple here

Question regarding iphoto and folders

I am a Mac newbie (9 months) and quite happy expect i freeze all the time after i installed lion, but that is for a different thread.;)
I had all of my pictures on an external hard drive. I had them organized in folders by year (also had a Year/edited for family photos we changed) and then by date/event...ie, 2011 04-05 Easter Dinner at Dad's.
When I got my macbook pro, I hooked up the hard drive and iphoto took care of importing all the pictures. (i have upgraded to iphoto 11). At first, I LOVED it. Putting face names in the pictures, etc, but after a while i got tired of having to reorganize them to find pictures the way i used to. I have over 15,000 pictures and renaming (even with the batch option) and moving them, and fixing dates, etc was becoming overwhelming. I found myself longing for my very simple folder organization. So i went to look for the folders, eventually found them and found out there were folders for originals, modified, thumbnails, etc. and when i went in my originals, they weren't in folders I had originally had on my external drive.
My wife, who is our picture editor, preffers photoshop and i have a windows laptop that i want to use for nothing other than pictures.
So......my question is:
How can i best take my photo's and put them back on a hard drive and then transfer them to the other laptop? Is there anyway to recover my old file system (deleted off the hard drive, except for an old backup but i have added thousands of pictures and have no way of telling which ones are in iphoto are old or new). I am fearful that if I just copy iphoto to the hard drive that the windows laptop will not read them, or that it will still show up with all of the different folders (original, modified, thumbs, etc)
And/or, is there a program to manage pictures for my macbook pro that will keep photos in folders more similarly to how i did before, so it will be easy to move pics from one laptop to the other.
Thanks!!!!

1. You know that iPhoto can do all this.
2. You can sort by Date -> View Menu -> Sort Photos.
3. You can search by date -> Click on the Search icon and select calendar. Then you can find all the pics from any day, month or year
4. You can search by date using Smart Albums too.
5. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
6. No there is no way to export back to your previous system. It's gone. You could have easily imported while mirroring that system, but it's too late for that now.
7. To get Photos out of iPhoto: File -> Export. Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
8. iPhoto can run a Referenced Library (where you have your own folder system) but I don't recommend it - especially for people unfamiliar with iPhoto and Macs. It also adds no extra functionality at all. It's just dumb storage.
