Iphoto and photo elements

i recently loaded iphoto6. i also use photoelements to edit many of my pictures . My problem is (that i did not have with iphoto5) i can not find all of my iphoto albums in the Browse feature. The folks at the Apple Store added a new library and transfered my photos from iphoto 5 to iphoto6. Now i can not find all of my albums. It has always been a major task to find pictures in photoelements ,but now it is more difficult. Please help.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. In iPhoto 6 album are not virtual album and are accessable only by those applications that can read iPhoto's data files.
However, if you want to use PSE with iPhoto 6 the go into iPhoto's preferences and in the General section select PSE in the "Edit photos with" menu.
Now when you double click on a thumbnail in iPhoto, that photo will be opened in PSE for editing. The only caveat is that if you create a layered file or otherwise do some editing that requires a .psd extension change, you must either flatten the file and save a jpg with the same file name in the same location OR do a Save As to the desktop and then import that file as a new file. Once the psd file is imported into iPhoto, you can open, edit and save as you normally would. Bottom line: there is no need to have to peruse within the iPhoto library with PSE's browser to find and edit files with PSE.
Do you Twango?

I am considering buying an iPad 3. I have an iMac with OSX 10.6.8. On the iMac I have many photos and work with iPhoto and Photoshop Elements on the computer. Can I interchange or transfer photos and other work from the iMac to the iPad? How?

Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.

Iphoto and pse elements 9 events original and modified

Hi I am new to iphoto and adobe elements 9 so please accept my apologises if this is answered eleswhere.
I have set up iphoto with the library to store my photos and set up in prefs. to use elements as editior. I can click on edit when on a photo in either events or photos and edit with elements then save and the photo is sent back to iphoto. All this is ok. When I view my photos in either photo or event i see two photos the original and the edited one. I have follwed the path of each photo back the photo on the left for example can be revealed in finder as the original, the photo on the right can be revealed in finder as the orginal and the modified. Both orignals are revealed as the same photo so only in one place. Can I get events to only show the modified photo not both oginal and modified. The only way I can see is to hide the original. I have followed carefully all the editing instructions in the discussions and i believe to be doing this correct. As soon as I click on edit I see a duplicate photo apear then elements opens and I do my editing and then save (not save as) and the photo goes back to iphoto as modified image. To sum up I have only one original and one modified stored in iphoto but both are in events when viewing events.
Thanks for any help given.

Suggest that you delete preferences:
Preference settings control how Photoshop Elements displays images, cursors, and transparencies, saves files, uses plug‑ins and scratch disks, and so on. If the application exhibits unexpected behavior, the preferences file may be damaged. You can restore all preferences to their defaults.
Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift immediately after Photoshop Elements begins launching. Click Yes to delete the Adobe Photoshop Elements settings file.
A new preferences file is created the next time you start Photoshop Elements. For information on a specific preference option, search for the preference name in Help.

I recently upgraded to Yosemite on MacBook Pro - unable to open iPhoto and Photo Booth

I recently upgraded to OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 on my MacBook Pro (bought in 2011). Since the Yosemite upgrade, I have been unable to open both iPhoto and Photo Booth at all. I have lots of photos and need to access them. Both icons of iPhoto and Photo Booth have a circle with a bar across them, in my dock.
When I click on iPhoto I get the message " In order to open “iPhoto”, you need to update to the latest version. The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac is not compatible with OS X Yosemite. Download the latest version for free from the Mac App Store". I have tried upgrading iPhoto on the App store but get an error message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store" .
Since I cannot even view my photos, I cannot store them elsewhere. Please, can someone help me resolve this problem!!!
For Photo Booth, when I click on it, it says "You can’t use this version of the application “Photo Booth” with this version of OS X. You have Photo Booth 3.0.3" - gives me no option to upgrade at all.
Would appreciate help for both iPhoto and Photo Booth issues described above, with iPhoto being the most pressing concern. Thank You.

The new app is called Photos. It's icon was added to the Dock. Both, Photos and iPhoto, are located in your Applications folder.
If you need to upgrade iPhoto, follow these instructions prepared by Barney-15E: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-8431

IPhoto and photos wanished from MacBook Pro with OSX10.9

iPhoto and photos wanished from MacBook Pro. Apple just offer to buy iPhoto.
The laptop was baught in 2010 with OS X ~10.6. Now it has OS X 10.9. I do not know how to recover the application and files.
Thanks for your help

If iPhoto came pre installed then go to the App Storel, sign in with the Apple ID you used to purchase the MBP or register it. Go to the Purchases section and you should be able to download it again at no charge.

IPhoto and Photos libraries

I have migrated from iPhoto to Photos in the last Os update on my MBP. Now I have 2 Libraries in my Pictures folder, iPhoto and Photos libraries. The libraries are huge and take a lot of SSD storage. Is it safe to delete the iPhoto library? Is it wise?
Thanks

Keep the iPhoto library around for a couple of weeks until you're entirely satisfied that Photos will do the job for you. Photos is missing many of iPhotos features which might make it a no go for you.
If you have iPhoto 9.6.1 you'll be able to open your iPhoto library and use it with 10.10.3.You can get it from the App Store if necessary.

Have new Nikon 5500 and photo elements will not support this camera

Had an Olympus E620 and Photo Elements 13 accepted my raw photos. Now have a new Nikon 5500 DLSR and Photo Elements will not accept my raw photos. When will they add the Nkon 5500 to their program? I am disappointed with Photo Elements for this. Have been a Photo Elements user for 12 years. !@

The D5500 was only announced 2 months ago but support has been included in Camera raw 8.8 which was released last week - see following
Camera Raw 8.8 now available
Unfortuantely, the update for Photoshop Elements 13 has not yet been released but it shouldn't be too long.
In the meantime, you could download the DNG converter (see document) and use that.

How do iPhoto and Adobe Elements Organizer compare?

I just installed Photoshop Elements 13 and am curious how others compare iPhoto 11 and Adobe Elements Organizer 13 compare.

To use PSE 13 as the external editor in iPhoto be sure to select the correct file when selecting PSE from iPhoto's Advanced preference pane. It should be the Photoshop Elements Editor.app and not the Adobe Elements 13 Organizer.app. With PSE 10 the editor app was located in the Support Files folder.
With iPhoto 9 if you edit a photo with PSE and do just a Save (i.e. no layers and you're saving as jpeg) iPhoto will recognize the edit, change the thumbnail accordingly. You can do further edits with PSE on that photo or do a Revert to Original on it to get back to the original file.
However, that edited version can't be edited with iPhoto without duplicating the edited file in iPhoto and then editing the duplicate. This message comes up:

IPhoto and PS Elements 9

How do I move photos from iPhoto into PS Elements 9?

PSE is not a photo manager like iPhoto - it is an editor - you can set it as the external editor for iPhoto in your iPhoto preferences
iPhoto has the capability to directly interface with any external editor - simply go to the iPhoto preferences (iPhoto menu ==> preferences ==> General and set the Edit photo option to in external editor - select the desired external editor and you are set - now when you edit photos they are sent to the selected external editor and when you are finished editing you save (not save as) and the edited photo is returned to iPhoto, the original is maintained in iPhoto and the iPhoto database is correctly updated.
If you want the option of editing in either iPhoto or the external editor after selecting your external editor simply set the edit in back to main window - now when you right click (control Click) on a photo you will get a menu which allows you to select either.

Duplication Issues with Photo Sync via iTunes/iPhoto and Photo Stream/iCloud (Detailed Scenario Given)

Hi Everyone,
I'd like to share an issue I am having with photo syncing between my iDevices.
Here is how I USED to sync my Photos between my iDevices (no issues with photo duplication)
Note: In this scenario, I use iTunes and iPhoto on my Mac. iCloud and Photo stream have NOT been activated in this case.
1. Take photos via iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
2. After a month or so, I will connect my iPhone to my Mac.
3. Import my Photos in iPhoto and arrange Events and Photos in monthly sections and add some of them in a separate Albums (ex. Written Notes Photos) for easy access.
4. Once the import is done, iPhoto prompts an option to delete photos in my Camera Roll which I do as I like to start a fresh month with empty Camera Roll in my iPhone.
5. In order to access the Photos I have imported in iPhoto in my iPhone, I go to iTunes and sync all my photos to my iPhone. This syncs my events, photos, faces, albums as they have been arranged in iPhoto in my Mac. (I cant delete them in my iPhone once they are synced. I have to delete in my iPhoto and sync again to have similar setup in my iPhone which isn't a problem).
NOW I decided I don't want to manually go through all this process and went on to enable the Photo Stream ON in my iPhone and iPhoto with iCloud.
THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEM ENSUES.
1. I Take photos with my iPhone that saves in Camera Roll
2. This automatically syncs with my Mac due to Photo Stream which a really convenient.
3. It syncs automatically to Photo Stream, Events, Photos, Faces section in the iPhoto and I put put some of them (notes) in a separate album.
THE PROBLEM:
The Photos does not show up in the Album, Events and Photos Folder in my iPhone. They are only shown in Camera Roll. So I thought to sync using iTunes so the new Photos will be arranged in their appropriate folder like it used to with my prior process of syncing. This worked, HOWEVER the photos in my iPhone started showing DUPLICATES! Apparently, one comes from Photo Stream (which, if I delete on my phone also deletes in all my iDevices) and the other duplicate is from the iTunes sync (this sets up my photos as arranged in iPhoto which is what i WANT to happen as Photo Stream does not sync them accordingly).
SOLUTION I AM IN SEARCH FOR:
I want to be able to take photos with my iPhone that automatically syncs in iCloud AND iPHOTO AS ARRANGED IN MY MAC (Albums, Events etc) WITHOUT PROBLEM OF PHOTO DUPLICATES.

Other folks have resolved similar issues by trashing the iPod Photo Cache.

Iphoto and Photo libraries

After converting my Iphoto library to Photos, I found I had two identically named libraries. Both the same size. (~160GB)
One would open Photos
and one would open Iphotos. However, when deleting some photos form "Photos", the library name and size has not changed.
(Nor has the Photos library size, now in a different folder)
My question is "Is it common for Photos to take the same name library" and "When does
the library show a change for date/size via Finder?"
I am trying to ensure I am backing the new library up via DropBox.
ICloud will come later when i learn it better.
thx.
IMAC with 16GB memory.

There are two libraries: iPhoto Library and Photos Library. They don't have the same name. Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support.
Photos creates an iPhoto Library.migrated to identify the modified library. This library can be used in iPhoto or Photos.

Import to iPhoto and photos get deleted instead of stored

I import my photos to iPhoto, they appear that they are downloaded. I close iPhoto and reopen and they are deleted while event remains only it is empty.

Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

IPhoto and photos app becoming non responsive/ slow and crashing...

Ok so I need some help!
I've been importing my photos onto my iPad with a camera connection kit. Everything has been fine for a while, I've been able to edit , do effects, export, navigate between windows and sections within the app.
Now for so,e reason the app has become INCREDIBLEY slow and at some times unresponsive. Every time you go to touch or edit a photo after about two minutes of using the app, it freezes and I won't be able to do anything. Then all of a sudden it will work then it will stop and become unresponsive again.
Also my camera connection kit on the import using the photos application has become slow as well. The app used to fly through the import of 100+ photos giving green ticks within a second at a time.
Now it's around 20 to 30 seconds per photo to import it onto the iPad.
I have 5gb left on the iPad on a 64gb iPad.
I've tried a hard restart of the whole iPad as well. I've also tried closing the app and re opening it from scratch.
In my entire photos library I have 705 photos - average size of photos are around 3.3mb each
The iPhoto app it's self is now running at 2.2 gb in total
I really don't want to delete iPhoto app and reinstall as I'll loose all my edits that I've done. However in saying that it seems to be the photo app that's the problem as well due to the connection kit speed issue . All other apps work fine and the rest of the iPad works as usual . So it's just photo and iphoto that is having problems.
Has anyone got any idea on how to fix this???? I'm away on a trip and am wanting to use my iPad to offload and edit photos ASAP :(
Any advice or comments would be great let appreciated!
Thanks
James

Disk Utility does not work on user files. Only on system and applications. Give the following a try:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
