Is iPhoto deleted by the 10.10.3 update ?

Ok, we now have the Photo app, to replace iPhoto.
But does the update actually delete iPhoto from the Mac ?
I have used iPhoto Library Manager from Fact Cat Software to split my pics archives into several iPhoto Library ( one per year basically ).
I do not want to lose easy access to my old pics if iPhoto is removed. (or assume that iPLM will be updated )

Terence,
Thanks for the quick reply. I have deleted iPhotos and the Photos app Library (which seemed to contain copies of some of the content of my "Pictures" library. I have recovered a huge amount of space and have all my original pictures.
I'll think about deleting the new Photos app. It does not yet appear in the Mac App Store if for some reason I want it in the future.
Regards,
Peter -

  • HT4623 How do I delete from the apps store an updated app that was downloaded? Prior to iso7.2.0 once the app was downloaded it was automatically deleted from the updated section in the App Store.

    How do I delete from the apps store an updated app that was downloaded and shows open? Prior to iso7.2.0 once the app was downloaded it was automatically deleted from the App Store.

    You don't.
    The update section will continue to show recently updated apps due to the ability to auto download updates.
    It effects nothing, just ignore them.

  • Iphoto deleted all the photos from my photo library while I was in iPhoto. Is there a way to recover them?

    I am using OS Yosemite 10.10.2. I was working in iPhoto 9.6.1 with iPhone 5 attached and moving items from iCloud to iPhoto. iPhoto suddenly deleted all the photos in my photo library and displayed a screen as if I were using iPhoto for the first time. Regardless of what caused this, is there a way to recover the lost photos? Thanks!

    You might have accidentally used the Command+Option+Delete key combination described below to move them the to iPhoto Trash bin:
    Deleting Photos from an iPhoto Library
    1 - from an Event or the Photos mode: select the photo(s) and use the Delete key to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the iPhoto Trash bin as follows:
    2 - from an album, smart album, book, slideshow, card, etc.: select the photo(s) and use the key combination of Command+Option+Delete to move the photos to the trash bin.  Then empty the trash bin as above.
    NOTE: deleting a photo from an album, slideshow, book, etc., with only the Delete key only deletes that photo from that item. Deleting a photo from an Event deletes ALL occurences of that photo in the library.

  • My user account and password won't be deleted after the 10.6.7 update?

    hi,
    i want to know if i can keep my account and password. i already know i need a backup, but, i can't update with this pending.
    please, help me. i don't want to be bored all the time with this old system.

    Everything should be left intact after the update.....repair (Permissions) via the Disk Utlity before and after the update..
    It is always a good idea to back up your data before doing any kind of system update....these folks are excellent in service and support for what they sell...

  • When using Iphoto to import photo from existing folder, what happens if I delete the photo in Iphoto ? Will the original file in the folder be deleted too?

    When using Iphoto to import photo from existing folder to iphoto, what happens if:
    1. I delete that photo in iphoto? will the original file in the folder be deleted too ?
    2.  when importing, does the hard disk store 2 versions of the photo, hence occupying additional space in the harddisk?

    1 - no  --  iPhoto only manages fiel within the iPhoto library - it does not ever do anything with files outside the library
    2 - No idea what you are asking - by default (and strongly recommended) iPhoto copies the original to the iPhoto library and you delete the source file outside the iPhoto library - iPhoto alwasy has at least two versions of every photo and some times three - it always have the original, a thumbnail and once a photo is modified a preview - this is not optional - if it is not what you want then iPhoto is not the correct progrtam to be using for phopto management

  • IPhoto '09 version 8.1.2:  If I permanently delete the photos in IPhoto trash, will the same duplicate photos be deleted from the Events library?

    For IPhoto '09, version 8.1.2:  If I permanently delete the photos from the IPhoto trash, will any of the duplicate photos in the IPhoto library also be deleted?

    1. There are no duplicates in iPhoto unless you imported two or more copies of the same photo
    2. If you are useing the defaults in iPhoto and delete a photo from an event and empty the iPhoto trash and the system trash all versions of the photo will be gone

  • HT2638 I believe i deleted all the images on my macbook but when i scroll in iphoto, i can see the images until i stop then there gone or corrupt. Is there a way of getting these images back??

    I thought i had a back up but i had that hard drive plugged in when i was deleting from the all images folder and didn't think it would grab from there.

    Make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and  apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Hi,  iTunes is no longer syncing my iPhoto library to my iPhone 4. Everything was syncing fine when I first got the phone, but, over the past week or so, it's stopped syncing photos.   Now, after attempting to start from scratch by deleting all the photos

    Hi,
    iTunes is no longer syncing my iPhoto library to my iPhone 4. Everything was syncing fine when I first got the phone, but, over the past week or so, it's stopped syncing photos.
    Now, after attempting to start from scratch by deleting all the photos on my iPhone, iTunes won't sync ANY photos from iPhoto back to my iPhone. I've restarted my phone, computer, etc., force quit all photo-related apps on my iPhone, and tried various combinations of turning iTunes' photo syncing on/off, switching photo sync folders, etc., all to no avail -- I can't get my iPhoto library back on to my iPhone no matter what I do.
    Anyone encounter a similar situation? (I've already sent feedback to Apple.) Thanks in advance.

    Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

  • I have a few hundred duplicates in my iPhoto library, but the file sizes are different.  So one is 1.3mb and one is 567kb.  I want to delete the smaller ones, but short of comparing each duplicate, is there a way to do this?

    I have a few hundred duplicates in my iPhoto library, but the file sizes are different.  So one is 1.3mb and one is 567kb.  I want to delete the smaller ones, but short of comparing each duplicate, is there a way to do this?  I've been looking at Duplicate Annhilator but I don't think it can do it.
    Thanks!

    I just ran a test with iPhoto Library Manager, Duplicate Annihilator, iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner, Duplifinder and Photodedupo.  I imported a folder of 5 photos into a test library 3 times, allowing iPhoto to import duplicates.  I then ran the 5 photos thru resizer to reduce their jpeg compression but all other aspects of the file the same.
    None of the duplicate removal apps found set that was reduced in the file resizer. That's probably due to the fact that the file creation date was being used as a criteria and the resized photo would have a different file creation date even though the Image Capture date was the same.
    They all found the 3 regular duplicates and some of them would mark two and leave the 3rd unmarked.  iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner can sort the found duplicates by file size but if the file was edited to get the reduced file size it might not be found as it would have a different file creation/modification date. 
    iPhoto Library Manage was able to find all duplicates and mark them as such if the file names were the same the the filename option was selected.  Otherwise it also missed the modified, resized version.  It allowed one to select the one photo to save before going to work on the library.
    So if a photo has been reduced in image quality or pixel size it will not be considered a duplicate.

  • If I use a backup machine that has a folder of my iphoto library, can I delete my Iphoto library without the machine updating and deleting the photos as well?

    Hey everyone, I have a Lacie 1 TB back up machine that I use to backup every once in a while everything I have in my macbook pro.
    I don't know if there's a difference between a hard disk in which you save whatever you want or a back up machine that backs up whatever you have in your computer once you connect it, so, My question is the following:
    Having backed up my Iphoto (I checked if there's a folder in the machine with all my photos), can I now get rid of all my photos in the laptop so there's more space? If I delete my photos (in Iphoto), does the back up machine automatically update its folders and delete my saved iphoto contents as well?
    Thank you!
    I'm doing this because my laptop is running really slow lately and makes a lot of noise (like an airplane getting ready for take off) even though I've used it for a year.
    I use a Macbook pro 15''
    OS X Version 10.8.4
    processor: 2.2 GHz intel core i7
    Memory 8GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Startup disk : macintosh HD

    Okay:
    Except an arrow turning in circle near the ''wireless'' or ''sound'' symbols on the top of the screen. If I click on it, I see ''enter time machine'', ''back up now'', ''open time machine preferences''.
    You're using Time Machine to back up to the External Disk.
    Back to your first question:
    Having backed up my Iphoto (I checked if there's a folder in the machine with all my photos), can I now get rid of all my photos in the laptop so there's more space?
    No.
    Time Machine keeps a rolling back up of your data. Eventually, anything you delete from your Mac will be deleted from iPhoto too.
    If space is an issue then get another HD. They're not expensice and you can put your iPhoto Library on it.
    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.

  • I transferred my iPhoto FACES to my mini iPad and: (a) they are not in the alphabetical order I had them in, (b) some of the FACES have been deleted, (c) the EVENTS I checked off in iTunes do not all appear in the iPad?

    I transferred my iPhoto FACES to my mini iPad and: (a) they are not in the alphabetical order I had them in, (b) some of the FACES have been deleted, (c) the EVENTS I checked off in iTunes do not all appear in the iPad?

    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there.
    Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A Finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for the iPod Photo Cache. Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.

  • If I delete photos in "iPhoto" will those photos also delete in the application "Photos"

    Hey guys! I was wondering if I delete photos in "iPhoto" will those photos also delete in the new application "Photos".
    I transfered all my photos to "Photos" the second it came out, so I'd find it strange if I still needed "iPhoto"
    Thanks a lot!

    No, they will not be deleted from Photos. The two libraries are totally independent of each other.
    YEs, you can now delete the iPhoto Library, but if you want yo do this to gain disk space, you won't see much of a difference. Reason being that both Libraries merely point to the same image files on your disk via hard links.
    For now, I would suggest moving the iPhoto Library to an external disk "just in case."

  • How can I import all photos from iPhoto and delete all the ones currently on my iPad?

    I uploaded all of my iPad's photos to iPhoto('08) thinking it would be easier to delete and organize them. Now that I've done that in iPhoto I need help finding out how to delete all the photos from the iPad and have the iPhoto photos imported from iPhoto back to the iPad.

    This workflow may do what you want:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new library.
    2 - connect the iPad to your Mac with the new library open.
    3 - import all of the photos from the iPad into the new library.
    4 - select the option to delete all of the photos from the iPad.
    5 - disconnect the iPad and delete the new library.
    6 - launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select your original library.
    7 - assemble the photos destined for the iPad so you can easily identify them by album or event which you alread have done.
    8 - launch iTunes and connect the iPad to your Mac.
    9 - go to the photos section for you iPad and synce those particular albums or Events with the iPad.
    That will get those specific iPad photos back into the iPad.
