IPhoto some photo's in my album seem to be locked for editing, how can I unlock them
I'm quite new to using iPhoto. Now I have created several albums that I would like to have printed. However, some photo's in these albums need some editting. Normally I click the photo (in the album) and the editing tools show up.
With some of the photo's in the albums this doesn't work. Can anyone tell me how to these "locked" photo's can be "unlocked"?
Thanks!
What do you see when you click on the Edit button? What makes you think the file is locked?

My photos in a folder are not in the correct order. How can I move them around?
I Am making an album of the life of an aunt. My photos are all in the wrong order. How can I move them around in the folder?
lets use the correct words so we do not mis-communicate
are you using iPhoto or the finder? Never touch your photos using the finder if you use iPhoto!
In iPhoto folders can not hold photos - folders hold only other folders or albums - albums hold photos -- within an album you can manually arrange photos as you wish -
I want to transfer music from iTunes library on my laptop which I purchased via iPhone5. Seems not possible to sync this album to my iPod because the songs/music is stored in iClouds. I don't use iCloud, how can I get my music from laptop onto my iPod please?
<Title Edited by Host>Hi there lalita23,
It sounds like you need to download these purchases to your library. Take a look at the article below for information on how to do this.

I'd like to transfer my old photos from my PC which are stored on a Maxtor external hard drive to my Macbook Air. Is there an easy way of doing this? I don't know if the Maxtor hard drive is Windows specific or if it's compatible with Mac. Anyone know?
It should be fairly simple. The Maxtor should be recognized as "read only" since it's formatted for windows. Connect it and in iPhoto select, iPhoto > File > Import to Library.. > Point to your external hd.

Photos are on hard drive but missing in Lightroom 5. How can I add them to library?
My photo library, created on an iMac, is stored on an external drive. When I plug the drive into my laptop (with Lightroom 5), hundreds of photos are missing. If I try to select them from the finder to add, they are grayed out. What can I do? Thanks.
Is there a way that you can "subscribe" to something that is not in iTunes store? This is just a file on a site that is available for download.
If not -- does anybody else know if there is a way to do what the original question posed, to have a file that you downloaded, treated as a Podcast instead of as music?
Thanks, tom.

After installing iphoto 9.5 some of my projects (photobooks) are completely or partly empty after regenerating, how can I get them back?
Define "everything" because if you've tried everything then your last recourse is:
1 - restore your backup copy of your iPhoto Library created just prior to your Yosemite upgrade or
2 - Starting over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Open the library package like this.
2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
Note: your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired. -
When I opened Aperture a dialogue box appeared suggesting I upgrade. The upgrade was done, and now all the folders and albums previously in Aperture have disappeared. How can I retrieve them?
. The upgrade was done, and now all the folders and albums previously in Aperture have disappeared. How can I retrieve them?
When you opened your new Version of Aperture you probably created a new, empty Aperture Library.
Do you remember where your original Aperture Library is located? Usually it resides in your "Pictures" folder, and is named something.aplibrary. If you do not remember where it is, search with Spotlight for ".aplibrary".
Quit Aperture, if it is running, then select your old Aperture Library and double click it to open it. This will launch Aperture on your correct library, and you should see all your projects and albums again.

I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album? I was trying to move several albums onto a USB drive and it stated all other files exist at this location. They are pictures taken at different times and have the same number I guess.
In iPhoto albums may contain photos with the same file name - iPhoto handles that just fine
If you are exporting them to move somewhere else use the sequential file name feature of export to give each file a unique name

After upgrading to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5 my shared photo streams seem to contain no photos when seen in iPhoto. From iPad the streams are fine. How can I get them to be recognized by iPhoto again?
Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

Having arranged some scanned pictures in an album in I-Photo how can I keep them in the order I have chosen when I move the album. They all have the scan date and not the taken date and move to new positions if I move them from one album to another.
Is there any way to re-number them in the order I have chosen so that they can then be sorted by number? The scans are all from pre-digital images that I wish to move to a photobook and I don't want to have to organise them twice!
Thanks for any suggestions.I was a bit short, Chris, sorry. It is limited, what can be posted, when typing on an iPad.
Now I am back on my Mac. I meant the following: Batch Change the date for a large range of photos, that should have a date stepped in increments.
Select all Photos at once and use the command "Photos > Batch Change".
Then set the date for the first photo and select an increment, e.g. one minute.
Now all photos will get a new date assigned, incremented by one minute, in the sequence you have selected. So you will be able to sort them by date. This way it will be unnecessary to change the titles or filenames. -
I have had to restore my PC to factory settings and didnt back up all of my photos but they are in seperate albums on my iphone 4 how can i get them back onto my pc many thaks johnmall
You can transfer contents from your iPhone back to iTunes library:
First, *BEFORE you connect the iPhone, please go to the iTunes preferences and select "devices", then select "disable automatic syncing for iPad, iPhones and iPods"*.
Then, for those songs that you purchased on your iPhone: Transfer purchases from iPod to iTunes.
For all other non purchased contents (your photos etc), their are ton of third party programs, some is free: iDump, Floola. Some is shareware, but they does preserve playlist/ratings/playcounts/artworks etc: iCopyBot, CopyTrans -
