IPhoto does not memorize the export path

Hi,
I imported some photos into iPhoto. Now I want to export some of them, one after another into a specific subdirectory.
The subdirectory I want to export the photos into is like this:
.../Pictures/Subdir1/Subdir2/Subdir3
The problem is that every time iPhoto exports a photo it starts in ".../Pictures" and does not memorize the whole path! Between the exports I don't close/quit iPhoto so that it could "forget" the path! I have to go through the subdirectories every time that is a pain!!
This is something that is usually working perfectly in many applications. The question is whether there is a way to make this strange application (in many aspects) keep track of the subdirectory I am working in?
Thanks!!

Thanks for your feedback!
Well, I don't know what is going wrong with my iPhoto, but I always have the same issue!
This application is generally a bit messy, like you cannot turn off the face recognition functionality, but that's another problem of me as user...
So, let's see whether there are any other ideas out there...
Thank you again!!

Is there a save option on iPhoto? Sometimes iPhoto does not retain the name on a face I've added to a photo.

Sometimes iPhoto does not retain the name on a face I've added to a photo. I have 'added a face' then flipped to the next picture then back to that picture and the label has disappeared.

No. It's supposed to be automatic. You might try repairing the library's database and then see if it still crops up now and then. If that doesn't help try rebuilding it the same way.
Launch iPhoto with the Option+Command keys held down and select the database repair option in the rebild window:
Then the rebuild option if necessary.

If neither iPhoto not IC can seethe card it might suggest an issue with the card or the ports on the camera/mac.
Try reformat the card, change the ports and/or use a USB Card Reader.

Iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

You actually need to give information to get help - just stating an abstract problems (which is most certainly not a problem at all) gives the volunteers hearer nothing to work with to help you
What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? What exactly is the problem (iPhoto does support the resolution of your camera so that is NOT a problem)? what exactly are you doing? What error messages do you get? why do you incorrectly think that iPhoto does not support full resolution?
At this time your question is like my car won't start - why not? Could be anything from you did not put the key jun to being out of gas to having the engine stolen - no way to tell anything - except that the problem you claim is not true (at least in my example I would know that the car did not start)

IPhoto does not see the camera

iPhoto does not see the camera, although it worked really well for two years. Computer has been regularly updated. Please help, thank You.

Image Capture doesn't see the camera. I have tried with two different Sony cameras, that I have been using for a long time on this computer. It is iMac 27''. Both of these cameras work normaly in MacBook Air, that means that the problem is not in the camera, or the cards. Those are the things I have tried so far. Only difference I created on the computer is that I have, two or three days ago, installed external hard drive WD My Book Studio which is connected to the computer by FireWire 800.

Iphoto does not use the proper display profile

Hello.
I just bought a 20' Apple Cinema display and connected it to my Macbook. I have noticed a very strange behavior of iPhoto and Preview.
I will first describe the expected (right behaviour).
When I drag an image opened in Adobe LG or Aperture from the Macbook display to the Cinema display (or the opposite) after a very small delay the color of the image adapts to the color profile of the display where it was dragged. Which is the correct the behavior.
With Preview or iPhoto this adaptation does not happen and the image is displayed with the right profile only on one of the 2 display. Besides being a very annoying issue, the very strange thing is how you can choose on which one of the displays the image gets displayed with the right display color profile:
- With Preview, the display color profile used (for both displays) is selected based on which is the default display in ColorSync display settings.
- With iPhoto, the display color profile used (for both displays) is selected based on which display the munu bar is (!!!). That is, if you want to have your image displayed with the right display profile on your cinema display, then you MUST have the menu bar on that display. If the menu bar is on the Macbook display the image on the cinema display will be displayed with the display profile of the Macbook display. Crazy!
You can try all of the above remembering that after any change you need to quit and reopen iphoto or preview or ColorSync for the settings to apply.
My question is: why neither iPhoto nor Preview act in the right way like Aperture or Adobe LG? Or at least, why iPhoto does not behave like Preview allowing me to choose where I want the menu bar without having this choice affecting the display color profile used to display my images?
Thank you,
Marco

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

The new iPhoto does not include the border option on the print feature

The new iphoto App that I upgraded this morning does not have the option for the borders, different dessings and multiple pictures in the same page on the print option, as my old version of i Photo had, I can not get anyone on apple to help me, they said this is how it is now. It is upsetting not to have a feature that was very good being replace for a very simple one, very dissapointed about this.

First crop the photo to the size you want printed. Select the photo to be printed and type Command + P. In the next window you'll see these options:
Select the print size (not borderless) and the Fit layout.

IPhoto does not recognise the raw files(.NRW) from my new Nikon camera model P7100,any advice please as running latest version of iPhoto(9.2.1)

Since changing my little everyday camera to a new Nikon Coolpix P7100 iPhoto cannot import any of the raw files(.NRW),says it does not recognise them.
I have updated iPhoto to the latest version(9.2.1) but still cannot open them.
Any ideas please

The raw from the P7100 is not supported at this time.
The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
Therefore the Raw for every camera model needs to be added individually. If yours is not supported then let them know you want it:

IPhoto does not retain the names I give photos - please help

When I rename a photo in iPhoto, it will retain the new name and adjust all children copies (e.g. in albums and on facebook sharing page), but when I close the iPhoto program, the new names are erased. I have used the same proceedure before and not had a problem. Any suggestions?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Why its wrong?

IPhoto does not recognize formate of photos after lost os x 10.9 update

I have a macbook pro after last update iphoto does not recognize the formate of a lot of my pictures.

What version of iPhoto and system are you running? What do you mean by :does not recognize the formate of a lot of my pictures."? Are these photos already imported into the library? What do you see when you open iPhoto?

IPhoto does not recognize old backup of library

I have a iPhoto library backup disk (dvd) that dates back to 2006. Iphoto does not recognize the photos and they will not open. How do I get to see the photo's?
Iphoto 11
iMac 2.4 ghz intel core duo
OS 10.6.8

The only thing I can think of is that the Library is corrupted in some way. Unusual that the main computer can access it - though it rebuilds the thumbs each time, whiile the other two cannot. I suspect that the permissions warnings are bogus.
Neither of the other machines would be able to read that library without updating it, and in fact, once the 9.5.1 version updates it, the 9.4.3 version wouldn't be able to read it either.
But either way, each library should ask to upgrade it upon opening, that the don't suggests that the Library is damaged.
You need to decide what version you want to want to view this library with - as you can't view it with either of the other two once you upgrade it. Then from that machine rebuild the Library with iPhoto Library Manager.
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

When I rearrange the order of my photos in an album, the order does not stick for exporting for a book.

I manally rearrange my photos in an album, the order does not stick when I export to a folder in order to make a book. Also, if I have given a title to a photo, it does not seem to export with the other pictures in an album.

It's a little vague on what you're workflow is. So I'll make a guess about the book: if you're dragging those photos into an iPhoto book they will be sorted by date. So you would have to use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date (with 1 minute between photos) menu option on those photos in the album before dragging them onto the book icon.
Photos exported to a folder on the hard drive will be sorted by the Finder either alphanumerically or chronologically. To get them in the manual order that's in the album you'll need to rename them via the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Title to Text with a sequential number added to each photo. Then export to the Desktop with the option to use the Title as the new File name.
