Iphoto create new event then copy photos to the new event.

I took some pictures this afternoon and imported them into iPhoto.
I looked for a new evernt but there wasn't one, so I checked 'last import' and there they were, but for some reason they they were there along with pictures I took almost a year ago. I checked the clock on my camera and the dates were correct and I can't find any reason that the new pictures were grouped with ones from a year ago.
So, I marked the new pictures, clicked 'copy', went back to 'events' and selected "new eventy" and created a new event, called "New event 8-4-13'.
Clicked on the new event... and there was no way to copy the pictures I'd selected with 'copy' in the preceeding sentence.
My question: it seems to be possible to create a New Event under the Library/Events, is there any way to actually associate pictures with this new event?

the easiest way to do a new event is to flag the photos and use the create new event form flagged photos command
As to your issue in finding the event - I do not understand what you have - but the most common reason for this si an incorrect sort - check the event sort - view menu ==> sort events

Can some please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates? I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my Mac

Can someone please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates? I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my new Mac. I ended up getting a bunch of duplicates. My old Mac has an older version of iPhoto while the new Mac has iPhoto '11. Is that the cause of the problem? Please advise. Thanks.

Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

Same problem here, and it's not isolated.

I believe you will find you can again sync Photos if you delete the "iPod Photo Cache", but predict that any subsequent attempt will fail. In my case, the enxt sync removes all the photos again - I've seen other reports of error messages upon sync. Mine just fails silently. :-)

IPhoto keeps crashing! - then needs to repair the library. This is happening each time I import photos or even try to go in to an even and delete photos etc. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please it is so frustrating - I used to love iPhoto - now I reg

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

To answer some basic questions posted to aid people in helping me. These are
I believe it is version 11 of iphoto as i tried to update but it says it has the latest update and Mac is 2 weeks old from new.
OS is Lion.
I have just tried to look everywhere on the Mac to see where the photos might be.
There are no error messages showing on screen and it was fine before my wife did what she did. Even though we have back -ups of 95% of the pictures. I would like to know what happened so that it won't happen again.

Does iPhoto copy photos into the iPhoto library or move them in?

I moved about 40GB of photos onto my Macbook when I bought it. It looks like iPhoto duplicated them because the iPhoto library is about the same size as the folder in my finder. Does it copy photos into the library rather than move everything?

Would there be anything in iPhoto that it may not have copied?
It will only have imported (and copied) only those things you told it to.
is there anything in iPhoto that won't be somewhere else on my hard drive?
Anything that was imported directly - from a camera, for instance.

In Iphoto 11 all 7000 of my photos show the same thumbnail. I rebuilt the thumbnail using ctr alt and opening iPhoto. This worked and rebuilt the thumbnails correctly. Then when I reopened iPhoto the problem came back? Help please?

Where is your Library stored?

HT201269 I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6. Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?

I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6.
1) Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?
2) Can I back up the newsstand to iCloud and save memory on the iPhone?
3) Can I back up the bookshelf to icloud and save memory on the iPhone?

1. What format is the external drive? It sounds like it's ina format that Macs can't write to. Is it a NAS or NTFS?
2. Easiest thing: just move your iPhoto Library to the external
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 can I copy photos from the camera roll to an album in ipad?

How can I copy photos from the camera roll to an already existing album in ipad?

If you are in thumbnail view in the Camera Roll, tap the Edit button in the upper right corner. Tap the photos that you want to add to the existing album. Tap - Add To - in the upper right corner and then tap - Existing Album.
You can only add camera roll photos to albums that you have created on the iPad. You cannot add them to albums that you synced from iTunes.

IPhoto '08: If I delete a photo in the photo library it also deletes it from the album it's in. Why?

iPhoto '08: If I delete a photo in the photo library it also deletes it from the album it's in. Why? How do I stop that?

1. Forget your goal. There is no way to have a Photo in iPhoto that's not in the Library. Can't be done. Impossible.
2. Events are the Library. They are a view of the photos in the Library based on date taken, that's all. Every photo in iPhoto is in the Library, and as Events are also a view of the Library, every photo is in an Event. So, you can't "take a library photo and put it in an Event". It's already in an Event.
3. I'm guessing that what you are calling the Library is the Photos view? That's the Library viewed not broken up by dates. But Photos and Events are two views of the same thing - two doors into the same room, as it were.

If they are in an iPod backup, then restore another iPod, iPhone or iPad from that backup

Is there a way to select MULTIPLE tabs and then copy ALL of the the URLs and titles/or URLs+titles+HTML links? This can be done with the Multiple Tab Handler add on; However, I prefer to use a Firefox feature rather than download an add on. Thanks.

Currently, I can copy ONE tab's url and nothing else (not its name). Or I can bookmark all tabs that are open. However, I'd like to have the ability to select multiple tabs and then copy ALL of the the URLs AND their titles/or copy ALL of the URLs+titles+HTML links? This can be done with the Multiple Tab Handler add on; when I download the add on, I get a message saying that using the add on will disable Firefox's tab features. I prefer to use Firefox features rather than download and use an add on. Is there a way to do this without an add on?

Hi LRagsdale517,
You should definitely be able to upload multiple files by Shift-clicking or Ctrl-clicking the files you want to upload. Just to make sure you don't have an old version of the service cached, please clear the browser cache and then log in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/files. After clicking the File Upload icon in the upper-right corner, you should be able so select multiple files for upload.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

Yes.

Why is iPhoto creating new copies of faces in my mother's photos?

My mother uses iPhoto to look at and edit her pictures. She is getting very frustrated because it seems to be making new pictures of all the faces in her photos including a lot of faces she doesn't know or want (e.g., people gathered around tables at parties). She's being overwhelmed with new copies of existing photos and these new face crops. I've looked at the Preferences and can't find anything to turn off to stop this behavior (I don't use iPhoto myself because I don't like the behavior).
For that matter, I can't seem to find out why it's creating duplicates of pictures already in her Library. To my knowledge, she's not Importing them again so there's no reason for these duplicates to keep cropping up. She was using OS X 10.6.8 on her iMac but I've just upgraded her to Mavericks.

The faces are showing up in her iPhoto gallery. To my knowledge, she hasn't done any importing and she definitely hasn't cropped or selected these faces for anything. It seems to be creating pictures from any faces it finds in group photos but the faces are unnamed and not located in the Faces tab although they show up in the Photos tab.

IPhoto - can't choose iPhoto as a folder to copy photos when syncing with iPhone 6

I just updated my iTunes because I just got the new iPhone 6. When I connected my phone I was asked to create a name for a folder to copy photos from. I didn't know what I was doing to I named it pictures. I don't know how to just choose iPhoto for the place to choose photos from for syncing. What did I do and how can I fix it? Anyone??

Hello Kat2007,
If I understand correctly you are needing to sync your iPhoto images from your Mac to your iPhone. You should be able to select iPhoto from the drop down menu at the top of the photos tab in iTunes when you have your device connected:
iTunes: Syncing photos
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling
