Labeling on a photo - Is there a program that works with iPhoto?

I have a Mac Book Pro system 10.8.5. I want to put a description directly on some photos in iPhoto but not on all of them. I have used photogenie on my iPad but want something similar for my Mac. Any recommendations?

Adding text to a photo is not a feature of iPhoto.
You can do it with
Preview - already on your machine
BorderFX - a free plug-in. (http://www.iborderfx.com/iborderfx/)
or an external editor.
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Is there a program that works like the old iPhoto?

Is there a program that works like the old iPhoto?
The old iPhoto is my ideal program. Unfortunately, it does not work on my new operating system. I like having the ability to look over my images with a slide show. However, the new package folder does not give me complete access to my pictures. Is there a program that will have both slide show with music options, and the general folder for the files? I heard that Picasa was supposed to have a general folder, but it is using the iPhoto package.
I have looked over the solutions to getting access to images from the iPhoto package mentioned in the discussion forum. I would like a simpler system that works like the old iPhoto. Is this a possibility? I do not feel comfortable putting my original photo files into a system that does not let me look at the file information, and I would like to have the original benefits of iPhoto tools.
Thank you for your time.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
The current iPhoto is laid out specifically the way it is because of folks like you
Since iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
Even in the old iPhoto it was never correct to access the iPhoto Library Folder.
However, the new package folder does not give me complete access to my pictures.
This is untrue. 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.
There they all are.
Standard Warning which applies to every version of iPhoto: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
I do not feel comfortable putting my original photo files into a system that does not let me look at the file information

I purchased Label Printer Pro 7, but it does not work. It crashes. Please recommend an address/shipping label program that works with Avery labels. Thanks.

I purchased Label Printer Pro 7, but it does not work. It crashes. I press print, and the program closes. I press save, and the program closes. I press print and the program closes. I have had an email exchange with Pabel Printer Pro 7, but the best they could offer was to go to Utilities and click on fixed permssions. I have done that several times, and the program still doesn't work.
Can you please recommend an address.shipping label program that works with Avery labels that I can purchase, and that is also simple to use?
Thanks,
Paula

Anyone know of any greeting card program that works with OS x?

anyone know of any greeting card program that works with OS X?

There is no solution. The Canon UFR2 driver used by the MF series does not work when connected to a Windows share or a wireless print server, including the Airport Extreme or Express. The problem is wholly to do with the way in which Canon has written this driver and therefore the Canon support staff should know this and tell you (although their Mac knowledge in Australia is pitiful and most likely the same in your region).
If you had a model with Ethernet, then you could connect it to the wireless router and print via IP > LPD. But I know that your MF4150 only has USB as I mate of mine had one and he had exactly the same issue on Tiger, which I documented on the Tiger forum and the Airport printing forum.
So, don't waste your money on a print server. Get rid of the Canon and get something that will work for all your OS's. If I can suggest, the safest purchase would be to get a model that supports Postscript. While this does cost more, it will help to avoid any limitations that can occur when using a vendors proprietary printer language, like Canon's UFR2.

Are there any good fax programs that work with Efax besides Efax Messenger

I just signed up for a free months trial of Efax. I downloaded the Efax Messenger program which seems to work well except for the fact that it does not save any fax packages (on my computer) that I send out. This is an important needed feature. If I send out a package of 5 or 6 files to someone I need to be able to look up what I've sent them. The only way I can do this is to put all the files in a folder named for that particular fax, then put that folder in a second folder that is labeled faxes, then fax the files from the folder by Efax. Quite a process. I called Efax and was told that this feature was only available for a Windows Machine (Efax, catch up!)
Are there any other programs that are easy to use and at least as good as the Efax Messenger that have that feature?
We are traveling in a sailboat, don't have a land line. We only have a wifi internet connection when they are available, (internet cafes, etc.) or sometimes at anchor using long range wifi. I don't have the luxury of going online to check faxes all the time, hence the necessity of having them on the computer.
Any help appreciated.

Just to be clear, though, reducing the resolution of an LCD can have a negative effect on image quality. LCDs have an optimal "native" resolution and setting the resolution below that native level results in a poorer quality image.
Leopard claims "resolution independence" - I have not tried it yet, but if you read the description of this feature, you will note that it applies to the user interface elements. Granted, that's often what you notice the most (i.e. the problem with reducing the resolution below native for an LCD is that the text in Finder, all of the menu bar items, etc., looks "fuzzy"). By appropriately scaling the UI elements, Leopard overcomes the limitation. But the "fuzzyness" will still apply to non-UI things that are displayed - i.e. images. Since based on your posts you will be working with images primarily, high-res vs. standard is still a choice I'd recommend considering carefully, and ideally by trying them both side-by-side.
Ps. Thanks for awarding points!

EPub export issues and e-book programs that work with it

Hey Ladies and Gents,
I'm working with my coworker on ePUBS for our company products but we're pretty much noobs when it comes to these. We've hit a few snags that I'm hoping someone on here might be able to clear up.
So far we've managed to export our white papers as fixed layout but when we open them up in adobe digital editions a lot of the text content seems to overlap like below:
We don't have that problem in reflowable layout but some of our anchored points and captions get misplaced (which is almost worse). Is there anyway to fix this issue in the settings with Fixed layout without having to switched over to reflowable?
We have them layed out for ipads and iphones. They include products photos/tables along with their descriptions.We primarily would love to have them up on iBooks and amazon for free for our clients to view.
Only thing is, we haven't found a good program to download/publish our ePUBS to the correct format they need.
Currently, Apple has seven approved iBookstore aggregators we've heard of that could work:
• BiblioCore—www.bibliocore.com
• BookBaby—www.bookbaby.com
• Constellation—www.perseusdigital.com
• INgrooves—www.ingrooves.com/digital-publishing
• Ingram—www.ingramcontent.com/apple
• Lulu—www.lulu.com/apple-ipad-publishing
• Smashwords—www.smashwords.com/about/how_to_publish_ipad_ebooks
However, Lulu is expensive and doesn't bring in photos. we've seen a program that does that for $800
BUT we're hoping for a cheaper route; That's not exactly in our budget. We don't know much about the other ones. I'm hoping someone on here could give us some good insight on what would be the best choice for publishing our books onto ibooks and amazon.
Thanks,
Kristen

I don't know what was running in the background that was causing InDesign to crash when I ran the epub export but now that I've restarted the machine (Windows 7) and restarted InDesign CS 5.5 the epub export works fine. Though I'm still noticing problems with both the TOC and Cover image being exported at the same time. When that is done the TOC is not incorporated into the epub. This isn't much of a concern at the moment since I can always use some freeware to add that in. I'm also puzzled that I can't add the author information in bridge. InDesign locks the epub up so that the author, title, etc can not be edited in bridge. But once again I can always use freeware to do this. Thanks for the help you two.

Mac OS 10.4.7 : Is there a printer that works with this system? Canon CAN'T

Can anyone suggest a currently available, reasonably priced printer that actually works with 10.4.7??

CD printing should be done on printable CDs, not on labels. You can print labels and then put them on the CD.
There are a number of printers that will work, but it depends on your needs. The most compatible printers are PostScript, followed by PostScript clones.
I also have an Epson inkjet, which almost works fine, except that the host computer will not sleep when it is powered up and sharing the printer. Actually, the display goes to sleep and will not wake up, which is bad.

Free programs that work with itunes to scan/fix music for tracks that skip

Are there any programs (preferably free) that can scan an entire itunes library for corrupt songs & fix on albums? like songs that skip that came from a scratched CD. With the amount of songs I have now, it would be impossible to go through them all & listen for skipping tracks. I have found & learned about programs or scripts that can scan a whole library for missing album artwork, so I wondered if threre was anything for skipping songs.

Is there an extension that works with Dreamweaver CC to create SCORM imsmanifest?

I searched the forum and it looks like Manifest Maker for ADL SCORM 1.2 will not work in Dreamweaver CC. Can some please confirm this? Is there any extension like this will work with Dreamweaver CC? Can Manifest Maker for ADL SCORM 1.2 still work in Dreamweaver CS6? The extension can be found here: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail&extid=1012681

You link is dead as far as I can see. Just clicking on the link takes me to your webmail (rr) but using this link:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail &extid=1012681
Is dead.
However, Most Extensions in CC requires a ZXP format/extension and distributors have provided free updates to their customers. Have you tried contacting the person who created that particular extension?
If you can sort out the links then our experienced MVPs will help you out. They need to see what you are talking about.
Good luck.

I have some expensive programs that work with windows, would they work with the Mac

I have always had windows and I have some expensive programs that I like to work with and was wondering if they would work on the IMac. I have been considering changing for years but someone said my programs wouldn't work with Mac. I have IPods, IPad and IPhones, so I am a little familiar with Apple

No, not unless you install Windows on the Mac.
A Windows app needs Windows. An OS X app needs OS X.
You can install and run Windows and Windows apps natively on an Intel Mac.

Question: Programs that work with Nikon D600 .NEF files

I recently upgraded to the Nikon D600. With that, I’m unable to open RAW images in the programs that I currently have (PS Elements 9). Does Photoshop Elements 11 have the correct software (Camera Raw 7 and higher)? Or will I need to get the full version Photoshop CS6?
Thanks for any help you can offer!

PSE11 will handle your NEF files but you will need to update immediately after installation using:
Help >> Updates
Also look at Lightroom 5. Unlike Elements it has all of the raw tools from CS6 in an intuitive interface designed for photographers by photographers.

Are we now requiered to buy CS6 to get camera raw 8.4 or is there an upgrade that works with CS5?

I use CS5 and don't want CS6. I do however need to upgrade camera raw and would like to get 8.4 or newer. Is there a way to get it without having to buy a whole new program? If not I guess I'll have to stop using CS6 and Lightroom 5 for my work and use another program.

Since I shoot in a raw format,
With which camera?
Their current offer is $10 a month or $120 a year to upgrade to CS 6/CC
You don't have to join the Cloud to get CS6. You can also upgrade to the perpetually licensed version of CS6.
http://www.adobe.com/au/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_s l_creativesuite6.html
since I prefer not to store my work on somebody else's system
As a Cloud member, you can still store your files locally just as you do now. That's my preferred workflow too.
Cloud membership does come with 20GB of Cloud storage space on remote servers but using it is optional. You're not obliged to.
I have been with Adobe and using both Photoshop and lightroom since beginning, but I guess all good things must come to an end at sometime.
Using the free DNG converter, you can continue with your current software and your current camera. You just have to convert the camera's Raw files to DNGs first.

Now LizardTech no longer support ExpressView for viewing Mrsid files, is there any alternative that works with Lion?

I've just upgraded to Lion and have found my ExpressView application won't work any longer. I cheked Lizard Tech's website and find they no longer support a Mac option. Is there any other options?
