IPhoto only accepts date/month/year format for pics?

I'm trying to add the dates to many old photos that I have in my iPhoto, version 8.1.2.
Unfortunately, I have many years of photos in there, and I can't remember exact dates of many photos.
And so I just want to at least put the month and the year. Or sometimes, I'll just remember the year.
But iPhoto will only let me use a date/month/year format. Odd.
Is there any way around this?
Somehow, many of my old photos that have been transfered from old computers have dates assigned to them that are crazy, like 1960....etc.
I can just make up a date and a month, but that takes more time, and furthermore it will be wrong info.
I don't want that.
It seems silly that I can't just put the year alone.
Any thoughts?
thank you!

it also seems like the albums of photos will use the date of the earliest photo in the album, and the newest photo in the album to create a "from" field and a "to" field, in the "info" section at the bottom left of the application, when the Album is highlighted.
This means that I have to manually correct every single photo in my albums, so that the album date range will read correctly?
thanks again...

  • Show Current Date in Year Format (and now - 1, etc.)

    Our form has some column headers that need to change each year, the headings are current year (2010) + previous 3 years.  Am trying to programatically add the titles to eliminate modifying the form just to change the year, but not finding how to accomplish, and was checking out some date samples found, but no success yet.  My question is 2 part - how/where do I put code, I don't need the user to enter anything, just want a column header.  This example below is where I copied the idea from a sample and tried to adjust, it's on the calculate event of a date/time field, and I get an error message that says 'the display pattern "date-{MM/DD]" is incompatible with the object's data format.  Define a compatible Display pattern.  This display pattern error is the 2nd part of the question.  How do I display only the 4 digit year?
    year1.rawValue
    = num2date(date(), "YYYY")
    How do I accomplish this - am newbie on this!  Thank you very much!

A: Show Current Date in Year Format (and now - 1, etc.)

1) I typically use a hidden field to capture the current date on the layout:ready event.
2) If year1 is a date object  your script is valid but you are probably missing the display pattern date{YYYY} on year1.
If year1 is a text field you could could capture current year in a hidden field as
// form1.page1.currentYear::ready:layout - (FormCalc, client)
$.rawValue = Num2Date(Date(), "YYYY")
where currentYear has the display pattern date{YYYY} and add
this.rawValue = form1.page1.currentYear.rawValue;
to the calculate event of year1.

  • Can Iphoto display the date and time of a pic on the pic?

    I know I can get info and see a pics info, but can Iphoto display the date and time of a pic on the pic itself?

    Use the Photos->Batch Change menu option to set the Title to Date and Time. That will give you what you want under each thumbnail.
    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 versions) 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 or later), 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
    NOTE: iPhoto 8's new option in the library rebuild pane, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

  • Can I change the day/date format from US (month day year) to UK (date month year)?

    When I view databases through Firefox, the date/day format is set at month, day, year (US style), whereas I need day, month, year, I work in the UK and the "wrong" format is VERY confusing and could lead to errors/mistakes. IE has that format but I don't want to revert to using that.

    Gingerbread Man, thank you VERY much!! I followed your instructions and it works perfectly. I am a happy person :-))

  • Best Data rate and format for Big Screen Playback

    I am a video producer supplying content for a tradeshow display consisting of 18 flat screens oriented vertically, 8 over 8. Very heavy duty Windows playback machine, with 3 graphics cards, 1 for each set of 6 monitors. The total pixel size is 3240x 1280 px. We have produced a number of full screen and smaller movies that the interactive programmer is trying to intergrate into a Flash program where some videos will play full screen, and others in smaller windows (those were produced in 1920x1080). All videos were mastered at the specified pixel count, square pixels, progressive, and output in Pro Res 422, 44.1K audio. Flash is being used to create the interface, and I am transcoding to .F4V at lower bit rates like 4, 6, and 9 Mbps. They are having trouble playing these movies back smoothly. We have done similar projects in the past with Director without issue. Of course they are blaming the video, I am offering to encode in any format at any data rate they suggest. Can anyone suggest a direction here?

    Are you trying to burn a standard DVD or are you trying to put a QuickTime .mov file on DVD media?
    A standard DVD doesn't worry about file size (only the duration).
    A "data" DVD is limited to the type of media used. A single layer DVD is about 3.7 GB's.
    In order to make a data DVD you need to keep the data rate low enough to not exceed the DVD media playback abilities. They can't handle the higher rates found in many of the preset options.
    You can avoid all of these headaches by telling the viewer to "copy" the .mov file from the DVD to their Desktop. Then nearly any of the presets option will work.
    H.264 is a great video codec and the "automatic" preset should work just fine. Use "multi-pass" for best quality (takes a very long time). Remove the check mark for "Audio" since your file has none. Leave it checked and you waste file size because a silent audio track would be added.

  • Apple only accept debit or credit card for iphone purchase

    Apple Inc. no longer accepts cash for iPhone purchases and now limits sales of the cell phone to two per person in a move to stop people from reselling them.
    The new policy started Thursday, said Apple spokeswoman Natalie Kerris. Before then, there was no cash restriction and the purchase limit was five per person.
    How can I buy an iphone i do not have a debit or credit card is that even legal not to accpet cash as i recall you must accept cash for any payments under $ 9,999.99
    im wondering is that legal since everybody doesnt have debit or credit cards and that would be discriminating customers

    Apple can invoke any policy they want for accepting tender for the purchase of the iPhone or any other product.
    It would be interesting if you or I went up to the counter and wanted to buy a Mac and they did accept cash in lieu of a debit or credit card. I believe that would be a "double standard".
    Having said that, the real issue I believe and what I read in the information released by Apple in their quarterly report last week is the unlocking of iPhones.
    It appears that there has been the development of a "cottage industry" in the business of unlocking the iPhone to the point where the President of Apple (not Steve Jobs) stated that they, Apple, believe that there are at least 250,000 iPhones that have not been activated through AT&T to date, i.e., through September 30, 2007.
    How the taking restricting of cash transactions for the iPhone will reduce the unlocking issue is beyond my comprehension. I could buy a number of iPhones two at a time with my debit card and/or my debit card by just showing up at a store a number of times. Just in my area alone, northern Virginia, there are 4 Apple Stores within 1.5 hours of my home.
    I have 5 credit cards and 2 debit cards. I could buy 14 iPhones without ever violating the new Apple policy. I guess I could also write a check off of my 3 checking accounts - that would permit me to buy 6 additional iPhones.
    Is Apple going to hold credit card or debit receipts to compare how many times an individual purchased an iPhone.
    If so, isn't that a potential security problem with regard to having that data around for other than electronic transfer purposes?
    There has to be some misunderstanding of the policy if in fact there is such a policy.

  • Best format for pics thats compatable with PE3

    I'm scannig in some photos and stuff for a project and wondering what is th best format to save the pictures as. This scanner offers several different formats, jpeg, bitmap, tiff, just to name a few. Alot of the stuff is old newspaper clippings so picture "quality" is not as important as if it were the last photo of Grandma before she past away, but some will be old photos.  Also the scanner offers a DPI setting what should this be set at? All help appreciated. Thanks.

    For this sort of work, I use TIFF at the highest bit-depth that the scanner, and its software, will allow, plus at the highest resolution. These will be big files, but that is the way that it is.
    I then take the images into Photoshop and do the necessary work on the highest rez files that I can get. I do a Save_As to .PSD with all Layers and Adjustment Layers. When done, I drop the bit-depth to 8-bit, resize to the video Frame Size, and Save_As .PSD. TIFF would work too. I am less a fan of JPEG, but others find no problem, and the files are smaller. Here is an ARTICLE on using some automation in PS to resize the images for video.
    Good luck with your Project,
    Hunt
    PS - forgot to mention the resolution. In video, this does not matter, but my Actions in PS for resizing are set to drop it to 72 ppi, but I start with the highest available, whether 1200, or 2400. I do not use any interpolation, so the ppi/dpi will be the highest physical (not software) resolution available.

  • Calendar - when I want to edit a monthly recurring event but only for one month I am no longer given the box to update only that date.

    Calenndar - when I want to edit a monthly recurring event but only for one month I am no longer given the box to update only that date month.  How do I do this with the new operating system?

    Adding to Alan's answer:
    One of the problems that comes with these tricks for variable-rate acquisition is being able to match up sample data with the time that it was sampled. 
    If you weren't using either of E-series board's counters, there is a nifty solution to this!  You'll be using 1 of the counters to generate the variable-rate sampling clock.  You can then use the 2nd counter to perform a buffered period measurement on the output of the 1st counter.  This gives you a hw-timed measurement of every sampling interval.  You would need to keep track of a cumulative sum of these periods to generate a hw-accurate timestamp value for each sample.
    Note:  the very first buffered period measurement is the time from starting the 2nd counter until the first active edge from the 1st.  For your app, you should ignore it.
