Is there a way to make photo files on the computer the same as the files in iPhoto?

I have all my photos organized in iPhoto but they are not organized the same way in the photo section of my files.  Is there a way to have them show the same files?  When ever I need to add a photo to a website I can't find the same one's I have in iPhoto since I'm only able to upload them from the photo file section and not iPhoto.
Thanks!

No and neither is there any need to.
When ever I need to add a photo to a website I can't find the same one's I have in iPhoto since I'm only able to upload them from the photo file section and not iPhoto.
Just need to learn how to use iPhoto:
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Iphone 4S newly updated to iOS8, keeps popping up window notifying me of things I turned off (cell usage, location, etc) to preserve battery life.  Is there any way to make them stop telling me every time I use the affected apps?

    I have finally taken the step of updating my iPhone 4S to iOS8 after learning the hard way last update to wait for the bugs to be worked out.  I was horrified to find that the battery was being sucked dry in no time at all.  After finding a great article posted elsewhere on the apple forums, I went through and turned off all unnecessary options involving the use of cell data, location services and background refreshing.  My battery life has thankfully returned to what it was before the update.  
    HOWEVER, now, every time I open an app for which I turned these things off, the window informing me of that pops up.   I am getting really irritated by this as I made all of these decisions deliberately and am well aware that I may need to go back and change them in order to activate certain capabilities when I want to use them.  I had done the same thing with the last iOS, but there were far fewer that needed to be turned off and the battery life seemed to be less affected by those that I left on so it was not the annoyance it has become now.
    Is there any way to make the phone stop presenting me with these idiot messages?   TIA

    Sorry no, there isn't a way to turn off those reminders.

  • Is there any way to sort photos not just by date but by time as well in iPhoto?

    I have a general know-how of iPhoto (View change by date, create events, etc.) I recently came back from a family trip and I was sort of designated as the family organiser of the photos from the event. So in my event I have three sets of photos (One from each camera imported) they organised by date just fine the problem is that they are in three sets. The best way I can explain this that each grouping of pictures for the day is itself in the proper chronological order for the camera that took it. It's the fact that the they aren't intertwined with each other i.e. in my event I have three sets of photos going from morning to night morning to night morning to night for the one day, so I was wondering if there was any way to get iPhoto to sort the three together as one or to look at just the time the photos was taken?   (Note this is iPhoto '09 or 8.1.2)

    Sorry but can you please br more clear?
    Assuming that the view menu sort events is set to either assenting or descending and you are looking in events then the photos should be intermixed by time
    You and make a smart album with camera = [each of the cameras] and select the photos and using the adjust time and date command to correct the time fir tosses Otis

  • Is there a way to make a linked PDF open in Acrobat instead of the browser?

    I would like to make a PDF open in Acrobat instead of the browser, so that the user can see its interactive features. Is there a way to do this in Muse? Or does it always spend on the user's browser settings?

    This would depend on the browser plugin installed , if browser does not have reader plugin then pdf will not open in browser.
    Not much can be done via Muse , but you can try some settings on pdf like password protected etc.
    Thanks,

  • Is there any way to make a certain page in portrait only open while the others is horizontal?

    I ask this because I dont want the book upright(i disabled the opition) except in a single page ... Thanks for help

    Create the page in Portrait - use Preview to screenshot - edit in GifConverter to size and rotate, then save to where it can be located easily in the Finder.
    Switch to iBA, confirm working in landscape with a blank page, then drag that image from the Finder into the page and center. Save and test.
    If searching the contents is critical, add hidden/linked text on the page margin. Hidden text is smallest font same color as background. Can be behind image if needed.

  • Is there a way to make Photoshop Elements 5 (2006) compatible to a Dell Windows 7 laptop?

    I received a copy of Photoshop Elements 5 (2006) and have a Dell Windows 7. I installed and registered my name to the software, but am aware that the program is compatible with Windows Vista or XP. Is there a way to make it compatible to my computer and/or update/upgrade to a more recent version? If there is no way to make the program work for my computer, is there a way to un-register my name from it?
    Thank you for any help at all!

    Do you get any problems when trying to run the software on Windows 7?  If yes, try to run it under Windows XP or Vista Compatibility Mode.

  • My daughter's iPhone was stolen, is there any way to recover photos that were back-upped to iCloud?

    My daughter's iPhone was stolen. Is there any way to recover photos that she would have backed up to the Cloud? Note, we did not have photoshare running.

    Camera roll photos are included in the backup.  The backup includes:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails

  • When I edit and/or delete photos from an album in iPhoto is there a way to make that what happens in the folder in finder?

    When I edit and/or delete photos from an album in iPhoto is there a way to make that what happens in the folder in finder? I am new to Mac. I've updated the operating system and iPhoto.

    If your iPhoto Advanced preference pane is setup like this
    all photos you import into the library are COPIED into the library.  Thus those photos in the folders outside of iPhoto are redundant and can be deleted to save space on your hard drive. There no need to keep those copies in the folders.
    If you do have your advance preferences set as shown above you can access your photos for use outside of iPhoto according to the following User Tip by Terence Devlin which is the best treatise on how to access photos (for use outside of iPhoto):  How to Access Files in iPhoto.  Otherwise you access your photos from within iPhoto. 

  • Is there a way to make a photo print bigger?

    I have a client who would like to create a banner that is 6x5 feet. She supplied me with a very high quality photo that she'd like printed on the banner. Ideally, it would fill up most of the banner. The file size of the photo is 670 mb. In Photoshop's "Image Size" window, it says that it's 12960 x 8640 pixels, 36 x 24 inches, and 360 ppi.
    Is there some way to make this photo display larger, short of taking a new photo with a higher resolution? What happens if I up the resolution in the "Image Size" window?
    Also wondering why this file would be 670 mb but only 36x24 inches in size... It doesn't seem to add up to me...
    Hope someone's got some advice!
    Thanks!
    ~ Sarah

    Sarah,
    To print at 6' x 5' you need an image of between 290 and 400 dpi to print on a large format printer at a viewing distance of 2'. That close and one cannot take in the full banner/poster. At 4' viewing distance the "perfect" dpi drops to a DPI of between 150 and 200 dpi. Your image is going to print at an effective long-edge PPI of 180 when you double its current size from 3' to 6'.
    12960px / 360dpi = 36 inches
    8640px / 360dpi =  24 inches
    That is a spreadsheet I wrote for such things. One should/has to take into account the viewing distance on large format printing.
    Take care, Mike

  • I share a photo stream with a family member. Is there a way to make it so we have separate photo stream but still use the same apple id?

    i share a photo stream with a family member. Is there a way to make it so we have separate photo stream but still use the same apple id?

    You'll want a separate iCloud account for each user in addition to the main Apple ID used for purchases.
    Let's say you have a family of four (husband, wife, and two children). Here is what you will need:
    Main Apple ID for shared purchases in Tunes (everybody will be using this)
    iCloud (Apple ID) account for husband
    iCloud (Apple ID) account for wife
    iCloud (Apple ID) account for child 1
    iCloud (Apple ID) account for child 2
    Yes, you can have both an Apple ID and iCloud account setup on the same device. On each iOS device, setup the main Apple ID account for the following services:
    iCloud (Photo Stream and Backup are the only items selected here).
    Music Home Sharing
    Video Home Sharing
    Photo Stream
    Additionally, on each iOS device, add a new iCloud account (Under Mail, Contacts, Calendar) that is unique to each user for the following services:
    Mail (if using @me.com)
    Contacts
    Calendars
    Reminders
    Bookmarks
    Notes
    Find My iPhone
    Messages
    Find Friends
    FaceTime
    On your individual Macs (or Mac accounts), use the main Apple ID in iTunes. Then, use the unique iCloud account in/for iCloud.
    Now that everbody is using separate iCloud accounts for your contacts, calendars, and other things, it will be all be kept separate.
    The only thing that is now 'shared' would be iTunes content (apps and other purchases), backups via iCloud (if enabled), and Photo Stream (if enabled).

  • Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized.

    Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized. I see how to do it one at a time with the "download" button in Dropbox but that's so cumbersome for lots of photos.

  • My music quality drops half way through - wave file, is there a way to make an improvement

    My music sound quality drops half way through - its a wave file, is there a way to make a the other half as good as the first half?

    Firstly can you tell us what sort of drop in quality in you are experiencing? Is this music that you have recorded yourself using Audition or is it imported from somewhere else? Without knowing what has happened to it it is impossible to say if any improvement can be made.
    If it is audio that you have recorded and edited in Audition you must have done something to it to make it change half way through. You will probably need to go back a few steps in your editing process to recover the sound.
