IPhoto captions

Is it possible to import the captions/comments of the pictures,too, when importing my iPhoto library into Aperture?

I have found a workaround: Import the iPhoto library into iView Media Pro, which write the iPhoto comments into the comment field of the Finder. After that you can import the iPhoto library into Aperture.

Update caption in iPhoto and push to iWeb

scenario:
1) i have photos imported to iPhoto and have created albums
2) i have used iPhoto albums in iWeb photo albums
3) the iPhoto captions are properly displayed in iWeb and its albums - except:
3b) when i update the captions in iPhoto - which i assume should be my "master" file for photos -- the captions are not pushed to iWeb like photo additions/deletions are.
is there a way to force an update from iPhoto to iWeb to pick up caption changes to my photos?
thanks

If you want an automatically updated MMe gallery in one of your iWeb pages you can do it as follows:
1 - create and publish a MMe gallery from iPhoto. Use iPhoto to keep it updated.
2 - open the MMe gallery in your browser and get it's URL.
3 - in iWeb embed the gallery into your web page using iFrame code and an HTML snippet as seen in this demo page: MobileMe Galleries and Quicktime Movies
The demo uses the URL for the mosaic mode of the galley. You can use any of the available modes as the default to display in your web page. Granted it's a wee bit larger on the page than a gallery created in iWeb but it will be automatically updated whenever you update it with iPhoto.

Captions disappearing from iPhoto on iPad

iPad 3
iOS 7
all apps updated
I keep adding captions to a photostream (created on Photos) and the captions keep disappearing. The tags remain, no problem. And some of the stream that I have created kept the captions. But on others, I go through the process of adding captions, go to the home screen, come back to iPhoto and eccola! No captions.
Can anyone help? On a trip to visit family in Italy, will take a lot of photos to transfer to Aperture when I return and would like to keep descriptions -- too old to remember it all. :-)
Thank you all.

I keep adding captions to a photostream (created on Photos)
How exactly are you doing this, Scott? I don't see "captions" in the "Photos.app", when adding photos to a photo stream.
Are you adding photos to a shared Photo Stream and using the "comment" field, when posting the photo?
These comments will be visible in Aperture, when clicking the speech bubble on the shared photo. And you will see them in the Photos.app below the photos in the stream. But iPhoto on your iPad does not show the comments, only the captions you add in iPhoto. To transfer iPhoto captions, save the photo to the Camera roll after adding the caption. Then the photo with caption will appear in My Photo Stream.

IPhoto 9.6 does not include photo description in export file

My system is current with OS X Yosemite 10.10.1, iPhoto 9.6, Preview 8.0
The caption/description does not export from iPhoto. I have not exported files from previous iPhoto versions expecting the file to contain the iPhoto Caption/Description. This is a s/w feature that I want to use starting today and forward.
The caption/description for my test file is "Test Description". I have carried out the steps required to export the file (see below). The actual result is that the file caption/description is "EPSON scanner image" and not the expected result of "Test Description".
Is this a known problem? Any suggestions or information is appreciated.

The title has been exported, as your screenshot is showing: It has been exported as the "Title" field:
For the "description" tag click the "Tiff" tab in Preview's Inspector.
You can also see the description in the "File > Get Info" panel.

I am making a calendar in iPhoto, picking photos from a folder, let's call it "2011 Pics," in iPhoto. After arranging all the photos and captions I decided I wanted to insert a new photo -- one that was not in "2011 Pics." So I inserted it into the folder

Add new photo to existing calendar folder in iPhoto
I am making a calendar in iPhoto, picking photos from a folder, let's call it "2011 Pics," in iPhoto. After arranging all the photos and captions I decided I wanted to insert a new photo -- one that was not in "2011 Pics." So I inserted it into the folder, but the picture does not show up on the scrolling menu of pictures at the left of the calendar-making page. This happened last year and in frustration I started all over again. But surely there is a way to add a new picture to a calendar that is already laid out.

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

Captions not displaying in iphoto slide show in my iPad 4

Hi
I am trying to create slide show in iphoto and want to add caption/text/title in that...I am able to add captions to the photo in edit mode however it doesnt show in the slide show...also I am confused about iphoto versions...my iPad show version 2.0.1 however the discussions I saw on this forum point towards iphoto 9,10,11...
Please help me with my problem as I want to create a nice slide show with photos, text and music

Slideshows on the iPad (or on any handheld device) do not support titles, only the slideshows in iPhoto on the Mac do that.
In the settings you can select a theme, select music, and set the spped, and that is all there is, see: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/2.0/#blnkd19951ed

How do you remove captions from photo books in iPhoto 9.5.1?

I wanted to see what a photo book created in iPhoto '11 looks like with my own pics so I made one the simplest way possible: picked an event, chose a format, clicked "buy book." It arrived yesterday and it's gorgeous but I want the next ones to be even better. In the "Folio" layout every page has a default copyright notice. I don't need that. Every page has the photo's name, useful stuff like "DSC_1518." I don't need that either. Is there a way to remove the entries from every caption box all at once? If I can empty all of them at once I can easily put back the entries I actually want. I can manually empty them but that's 4 captions on every one of 96 pages. Clearing one and clicking "change everywhere" doesn't do it. I don't want to remove the boxes, just the default entries in all of them.
Thanks

If you use a theme that has layouts without text boxes or themes that do not have autoload of text the text will not print even though you get a warning before ordering. Folio is the only theme that automatically puts in some text. The others just have placecard text that does not print.
You can test it by by proofing the book according to this Apple document: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture.
These are two pages from the Picture Book theme of a 2 photo per page layout. One has text and the other doesn't. The text you see is placecard text and will not display when printed.
This is a screenshot of the pages in the PDF file:
No text on the second page.

How can I get captions to appear on photos in a Slideshow produced in iPhoto for iOS please?

I have iPhoto 2.0.1 on OS 7.0.6 and cannot see captions on pictures in slideshows. Also, is there any way to turn off the ken burns effect which is automatically applied to photographs on the iMovie timeline? Thank you.

InDesign is not a web authoring tool. If you’re expecting text to simply overlay a graphic in export HTML from InDesign you’re going to be highly disappointed.
I’ll make the assumption you know nothing about web authoring tools and HTML/CSS. I suggest you look into Muse.

I am using my Description as the caption on Slideshow. I ticked the "Show Title Slide" button and iPhoto physically copied the description on the first slide onto the end of every other description. I can find no way of removing them other than by hand.

Attached is Dennis Linam’s Audition – “Log File” and “Log – Last File”
Contact information Dennis [email protected]
Previous contact information with your organization (DURIM):
Dennis - i just finished my audition trial and bought the subscription the 2014 version.
created by durin in Audition CS5.5, CS6 & CC - View the full discussion
DURIM - Okay. I would expect the "Cache Warning" message because your default directories would not be the same as the ones in the settings file I generated.
If you go back to the "7.0" directory and open the "Logs" folder, can you copy the "Audition Log.txt" file and send it as an attachment to [email protected]? We'll take a look in that logfile and see if it gives us more information about why this is failing now.
Also, do you have any other Adobe applications installed on this machine, such as Premiere Pro? If so, do they launch as expected or fail as well?
I do have the trial Pro version of Adobe reader, but I have not activated it, because I fear the same thing will happen did it. I cannot afford to activate the subscription for that product and take the chance of it not working either. I depend on those two programs religiously. Here is the files that you requested. I appreciate any help you can give me to get this audition program started

Re emailing photos from iPhoto: after I create an event, I later add captions, each one beginning with a number. I'd like to email a set of these photos in the order they are captioned, not the original order of the event. How do I do this?

I take a number of photos of an event which I download into iPhoto as an Event. I later add captions to some of the photos in the Event, and I want to share them by email IN THE ORDER OF THE CAPTIONS RATHER THAN IN THE ORDER THEY APPEAR IN THE EVENT. Each caption begins with a unique number followed by text. How can I email them in the order of the caption numbers?

You can't, block capitals notwithstanding. Try using numbered Filenames. But remember how it's all received at the other end is entirely based on the settings on the recipients machine, so it might well be moot.

If you do not have it on disc, then download it, install it, and activate it with your serial numnber. If you need to download it, if you purchased it online thru Adobe look for a link in your Adobe account online. You can also download the trial version and activate it with your serial number...

The photos.app does not (yet) have the option to add captions or tags. It is not possible right now. You can however search for the captions you added previously using the search field. You can also search for album names. So, as a work-around, put photos that should have the same caption into an album with a name like the caption.
See: Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8
You may want to send feedback to Apple, that captions and tags are essential and need to be added in an update. Use this form: Apple - iPhoto - Feedback

In iPhoto how do I open Photo Grid to change number of caption lines?

In iPhoto how do I open Photo Grid to change number of caption lines?

In iPhoto '11 you can only display two lines below the thumbnails of your photos when you browse an event or an album, the titles and the ratings. The title will be truncated, if it does not fit into the single line. From the iPhoto help:
To show title and rating information below photos:
Click to select Photos in the Source list.
Choose View, and then choose the information you want to view:
Titles
Rating
The information field you chose appears below your photos.
To hide this information, choose View, and then choose the information you want to hide.

Script to change photo caption in iWeb to iPhoto comment text

Hi,
Does any body know, how I could automatic replace the caption of the photos I have imported from iPhoto with the Media Browser to iWeb with the comment text I have in iPhoto for every photo?
It should be just a script, which gets told the album and the looks for the file name which is in the caption, reads the comment for the photo in iPhoto and then puts replaces the caption with it in iWeb, then the next photo ...
I'm not good in scripting.;-(
Thanks and Regards,
JO

Ok, here my script, what I'm using now to copy the comment to the title in iPhoto before importing the photos to iWeb:
try
tell application "iPhoto"
activate
copy (my selected_images()) to these_images
if these_images is false then ¬
error "Please select the images."
display dialog "Copy comment to title for the selected photos?"
set the image_count to the count of these_images
display dialog "Processing " & (the image_count as string) & " photos." & return & return & "This will take a moment..." buttons {"•"} default button 1 giving up after 2
repeat with i from 1 to the image_count
set this_photo to item i of these_images
tell this_photo
set the title to the comment of this_photo
end tell
end repeat
end tell
on error error_message number error_number
tell application "iPhoto"
activate
if the error_number is not -128 then
display dialog error_message buttons {"OK"} default button 1
end if
end tell
end try
on selected_images()
tell application "iPhoto"
try
-- get selection
set these_items to the selection
-- check for single album selected
if the class of item 1 of these_items is album then error
