M into iPhoto and creat an event?

I have photos of my kids that are fading.  I want to scan them into iPhoto in chronological order and use them for iMovie projects that I am working on combining video and photos in the project. Should I just scan them into iPhoto and creat one huge event?  Or have multiple events?  I see that I can't move photos around in an event.  Should I just scan them in an make albums instead to help me find photos when I'm ready to put them in the iMOvie project?

Where are you looking?

  • Scanning into iphoto 08 creates single events can I change that?

    When scanning photos into iphoto 08 with my epson flatbed my individual scans show up as single events, so if I scan 100 pictures of Dad I have 100 separate events. Is there a way to pre-select creating one event before I begin the scan process? Also is there a way to target the event I want a scan to end up in?

    Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
    No and No
    But once you scan several you can select all the events you just created and click merge and merge them into one event
    Or scan to a folder on the desktop and then import that folder into iPhoto (probably want to turn off the option to split items imported from the finder into events)

  • Can i import "all images" into iphoto to create a new library?

    somehow about 4000 photos out of 10000 disappeared when I moved to the newest iphoto and attached my external hard drive with the old iphoto library to it and switched between libraries using alt to open it.  i was unable to get iphoto to see the missing 4000 even though they were in all images.
    i went to all images on the new mac and dragged it into iphoto and created a new library.
    it seemed to work but then a few hours later when i looked at my photos they are all just faces!!!!!!!! and in all images the photos are all just faces too.
    what on earth is this?

      i am trying to understand why so many of my photos in the library seem to be just faces
    Because you imported the face thumbnails into iPhoto as noted several times
    As My first post explained
    All images is just that - a list of all images on your computer - all photos (two or three versions of each in iPhoto), the faces thumbnails, and probably icons and other images that have nothing to do with iPhoto
    No bug - simply user error
    Yes you can create a new library from the photos in the masters folder
    But first try to rebuild the database again - if that does not work this time download iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  and use it's rebuild command and see how it does - that will create a totally new liberary leaving your existing one untouched so you can go back to it if needed

  • How can you take a photo from one event and put it in another, without dragging to desktop and dragging back into iPhoto and moving it to the event folder I want it in.

    As the title says I need help on how to take a photo from one event and put it in another, without dragging to desktop and dragging back into iPhoto and moving it to the event folder I want it in. Right now when I want to move a picture from one event to another I drag it to my desktop then delete it from iPhoto then I drag it back into iPhoto and put where I want it.An example would be taking a photo from the Christmas event and add it to a specific person event.  Can I do that within the events section without all the dragging. Also is there anyway I can remove duplicates from iPhoto without going through each and every file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Apple doesn't make it easy to do what you want.  However, here's how I do it. 
    Select the photo you want to move and create a new Event for it via the Event ➙ Create Event menu option.
    In the Event mode select the new Event with the one picture and drag it onto the Event you want to move the photo to.

  • I am using Lightroom on my MAC where I import the finalized JPEG-pictures into iPhoto to create a slideshow (for instance in combination with films). When exporting the slideshow with a 1080p resolution to iTunes I experience difficulties (missing slides

    I am using Lightroom on my MAC where I import the finalized JPEG-pictures into iPhoto to create a slideshow (for instance in combination with films). When exporting the slideshow with a 1080p resolution to iTunes I experience difficulties (missing slides and black transitions). When using JPEG-pictures directly from the camera there are no problems, so the manipulation in Lightroom seem to cause corrupt files. Does anyone recognize tje problem and could it have anything to do with the introduction of the Yosemite software? Is Lightroom already Yosemite-proof?

    In iPhoto 11 the Originals folder is renamed Masters.
    IPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback and report the bug.

  • I need help proving the date tag on a photo stored in my iPhoto is from the date it was sent to my iphone/date it was imported into iphoto - and that it is NOT the date the photo was actually taken.  Please help!

    I need help proving the date tag on a photo stored in my iPhoto is from the date it was sent to my iphone/date it was imported into iphoto - and that it is NOT the date the photo was actually taken.   I recieved a photo via text on my iphone and then I synced my iphone to my macbook and now it is in iphoto.  I already know that the date on the photo per the tag that shows up on it in iphoto is NOT the date the photo was actually taken.  I need article or literature or something confirming the tag is from when it was sent to the iphone and/or when it was imported.  I greatly appreciate some assistance!

    All I am trying to do is find something on a forum board or article etc stating that the the date showing in iphoto could be the date it was imported or synced or sent to me and not the actual date taken.
    The date on the photo could be anything because you can edit the date with iPhoto or any of 100 apps, free and paid for. So, the date on the photo will prove nothing, I'm afraid.

  • I was getting into iPhoto and got a message iPhoto needs to b e updated.  I clicked and all my pictures are gone.  How do I get them back?

    I was getting into Iphoto and got a message that Iphoto needed updating.  I complied and have lost all my pics?  Where could they have gone?

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • I imported video from a card into IPhoto and it plays in slow motion.  Any suggestions? Would importing into IMovie help at all?

    Hello
    I am importing video and pics into Iphoto and the video plays in slow motion.  Would importing in Imovie help or does it have something to do with the type of camera or file the video is in?

    It should. So they aren't shown in the Last Import smart album, right? Try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database, followed by Option #1 if needed.

  • Download CRM Contact into Outlook and Create vcard in Outlook.

    Is it possible to Download a CRM Contact into Outlook and Create vcard in Outlook? I can't seem to find a way to even download the contacts full details.

    You can use PIM Sync to download your contact from CRM On Demand to Outlook or you can export your contacts from CRM On Demand and then import them into Outlook. However, I do not believe this will create a vcard.

  • I have taken pictures of items that are linked to a database that I am building.  How can I bypass importing into iPhoto and simply downloading the images as "files" not "photos" so I can access them with my database?  thanx.

    I have taken pictures with both my Sony camera and my iPhone of items that are linked to a database that I am building, as well as my website.  How can I bypass importing the images into iPhoto and simply downloading the images as "files" not "photos" so I can access them with my database?  thanx.

    If your Sony has a removable memory card you can use a card reader to copy the image files from to a folder on your Desktop and then move them anywhere you'd like.
    Since the iPhone doesn't have a removable memory card you can try using Image Capture to see if you can manually upload the files to a folder on the Desktop. 
    If you have to import the photos, which are image files, into iPhoto you can then export them out of iPhoto to the Desktop and go from there to your database.  Just because they are in iPhoto doesn't prevent you from using them elsewhere.

  • How do you take photos from iPhoto and create a jpeg?

    How do you select photos from your iPhoto and create a jpeg to post on a photography site that requires jpeg format?

    Photos in iPhoto are already in JPEG format.
    Just as an FYI: iPhoto supports a range of Camera Raw formats, Jpeg, Png, Tiff and  a few other formats as well.

  • I have imported a jpeg photo into iPhoto and cannot get the Places map to let me fix a position on the map. It remains disabled for my photo. Checking out the Help file has not given any solution.

    I have imported a jpeg photo into iPhoto  and cannot get the Places map tp show. I have tried the Help file and the information was not helpful. Can anyone give advice here?

    I am using iPhoto 9.1.1. When I select thephoto, then Places I get the window (Places to lookup disabled). When I hit theInfo button I get the size an JPEG notification, and  Faces and Key words. The “reverse” of thepicture shows a window with Rotate, Hide, Trash etc.
    When I select Places, get the Google worldmap, and this case a pin on Sydney Australia showing that eighteen photos arecorrectly placed. I am unable to make the connection to San Francisco wherethis particular photo was taken on a very modern camera.
