PS - iPhoto 7.x.x is iPhoto '08 - the iPhoto '08 forum would be a good place for future posts - http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=227

Best way to move photos from iPad to Mac? I have a card reader foriPad and used it on a recent vacation to put pics on iPad. How can I now move them to Mac? Preferably without using iPhoto.

With iPhoto or with the Image Capture application.

Do I need to use iPhoto?

I am thinking of getting an iPad mainly as a device to carry around to display my photographs, although it is bound to be used for a lot else besides I no doubt. As I don't use iPhoto on my Mac will it be easy to load my photo's on to the iPad?

No you do not need to use iPhoto but bear in mind that the iPad does not allow for photo organization, photo sorting, naming, folders and sub folders directly on the device. iPhoto is a great tool to organize your photos before you sync them however.
In this photo below, you can see that I have my iPad to sync photos from iPhoto, but you can change the folder that you want to sync from in that selection bar where the iPhoto icon is in this photo.

HT204478 When syncing in ITUNES (IMAC) it will asked whether to use IPHOTO or PHOTOS. If I choose PHOTOS it says that PHOTOS is not ready to come back later. I have tried this several times. It will only sync to IPHONE. Am I missing something.?

Try designating a System Photo Library. Then your apps will use that.

Copy to Mac file Created Date uses iPhoto Modified not Original Date

When a photo is edited in iPhoto the 'Extended Photo Info' 'Modified' date field is changed to the now() date and time but the 'Original' date iPhoto remains the same.
Then when a copy is made of a photo in iPhoto and then 'Paste Item(s)' is made to the Mac desktop all the files dates default to the iPhoto 'Modified' date not the iPhoto 'Original Date'. Then if a sort by the 'Original Date' on the Mac is desired it will not happen unless the Created date file settings is changed for each photo copied to the Mac Desktop.
How can photos in iPhoto be copied to the Mac Desktop with the 'Original Date' used in the Mac file 'Created' date field?

when a copy is made of a photo in iPhoto and then 'Paste Item(s)' is made to the Mac desktop all the files dates default to the iPhoto 'Modified' date not the iPhoto 'Original Date'
Where are you seeing this date? In the Info window for the file with the Finder? That's to be expected because those dates are the file dates, not the EXIF photo created and modified dates which can't be view by the Finder. You will need to use a 3rd party EXIF view like EXIF Viewer for Mac OS X .
So don't confuse the EXIF date(s) with the file dates.

Using text in photo books

I'm making a photo book and find the text options limiting. is there anyway - even with a 3rd party ap - that you can add text over a photo?

You can use one of these image editing apps to add text directly onto an image.
Some Image Editors That Support layers:
Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac - $79
Rainbow Painter - $30
Imagerie - $38
Acorn - $50
Pixelmator - $60
Seashore - Free
GIMP for Mac - Free
Xee 2.1 - free
Or, if you have one of the image editors listed above or Pages you could create a custom page according to this tutorial: iP11 - Creating a Custom Page, with the Theme's Background for an iPhoto Book

IPhoto 11 photo book save placed photos

I made a photobook for my client. She likes it.
I took over 150 photos and used 48 photos for the book.
In the photobook screen, the photos I placed in the book are check marked.
The ones not used are clear.
Is it possible to extract only those placed 48 photos and put them in a separate album?
I am trying to avoide going through all 150 photos and try to find the 48 used ones.
Is there a simple highlight, drag and drop kind of procedure?
Thank you.

There is a way. If you don't have any other photos flagged in the library you can go thru the pages and flag each photo in the book. To flag the photos you need to get into the edit mode and then use the Photos ➙ Flag Photo menu option. The next photo in the book can be brought into the edit mode by using the forwared arrow on the keyboard. Create a smart album with the criteria Photo is Flagged and you'll have all of the book photos grouped in that smart album.
Or you can use ratings which is easier as you don't need to go into the Edit mode. Click on each photo on a page and use the Photos ➙ My Ration menu option to assigna a specific rating to the photos in the book:
If your library has photos other than that apply to your client you might want to consider this tutorial for this book, iP12 - Archiving an iPhoto 9 (11) Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date, for this book and using a separate library for future books.

Using iPhoto create a book. X-lg 100 pgs. Uploading for 4.5 hrs. Is this normal?

Using iPhoto 08 I created an extra large photo book. The upload process began around 5pm. It is now close to 10pm. Is this normal?

Uploading speed is based on your internet connection upload speed. Most all residential broadband accounts have a much slower upload speed then the download speed. Most of the time what you are uploading is a Request to either Download something or to Load a Web Page. Both take very little bandwidth. When you are uploading tons of photos, and depending on how large each photo file is ( The file Size), the upload can take several hours.
This is completely normal.

Using iPhoto to make books with NetBoot on an apple server in computer la

I teach an artist book course at NKU. We have an intel imac lab that serves up the software over a NetBoot system on the network from an xServe. We are using iPhoto to make our books. Our problem is that students cannot save their books to work on for more than one class period because they cannot write back to the server and each time the computer restarts, a pristine set of software is loaded onto each computer. I discovered there is no way to save a book. We can drag the library off and save it but we cannot do that with the book which makes is virtually impossible for my students to do their assignment. In iMovie, you can save your project onto an external drive. With Keynote, you can save your project onto an external drive, but with iPhoto, you cannot save your book onto an external drive to complete as time permits. Do you have any help for me?

Barbara:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What if the student has a USB flash drive with his library folder on it. Could he run that library with the iPhoto application that's on the server? Each student would have to import the photos from the main library to his flash library and run it from there. To get iPhoto to switch libraries you launch it with the Option key depressed and, when asked, navigate to the library you want to use and select it. As long as the libraries don't have many, many photos a 1 or 2 G flash drive would work. If a student had their own portable FW or USB hard drive they could use that also. Unfortunately that involves additional hardware. Might not be that big an issue for today's students as they are much more technologically advanced that we are in so many ways.
Not familiar with servers that's the only way I can think of for each student to have their own library, pictures and keep it for him/herself. Good luck.

Iphoto 08 Photo Books...awesome

Hi...since forums are often used for complaining...I wanted to share a very positive experience. I had an IPhoto Photo book printed by Apple Print Services. I sent the files Sunday and just got the book today delivered to the door. Quality : I'm really surprised. For the price, I was not expecting something like that. This book is awesome with a hard cover and the images quality is very great with an excellent accuracy with what I have on my screen.. Don't hesitate to try those services. This is the first time for me and it won't be the last one.
Cheers !!

I completely agree with the above poster. Prior to ordering my book for the first time I was hesitant. I placed my order on July 21 and received my book on 25 (Toronto). I am very very satisfied with the crisp clarity of the images (the full page pictures look stunning). I think it's reasonably well priced as well. I strongly recommend having at least a few of these books to impress your friends and family. lol.
Note: I am not (though I wish I were) paid to express my support. It is just darn good.
Take care!

What upload speed do I need to upload the XL photo books with over 25 pages?

I have just recently gotten a new Internet provider and the max upload speed I can get is 1mbps but I am only getting .4 mbps at the most. When trying to upload an XL photo book with over 26 pages it keeps failing to transfer/upload and the error message says to check the internet connection. I'm wondering what upload speed I need to upload? I need to cancel this internet provider before my free month runs out if 1mbps is not going to be fast enough.

Well I have my first order coming in tomorrow (according to Fedex) and I have my fingers crossed.
So far I haven't been able to find any local printers that will print and bind the books at a reasonable cost - best I've found so far is $200 (or more) per book.
Hardly cost effective for my relatively meager budget.
I've explored Asuka a littoe more, and their quality does appear to be superior at first glance, but it seems I am not able to take advantage of submitting my aperture-generated book directly. According to their templates I have to put everything together manually in Photohop. Great for end-control, but one thing that made me pursue this was the ability to generate a book inside Aperture using versions direct from collection (any changes I made to an original image were automatically incorporated in my book. Had I done it all manually, teh time/effort I'd be putting into the book with be well over 5x greater!
I've also looked at shutterfly.com so far - and they seem promising, and am wiating for my colleagues order to go through before I get too excited.
Either way, I hope to have my first printing this week - I'll keep ya posted!

I want to share an iPhoto project (Photo book) across a local network

I have an iPhoto Photo Book on my wife's iMac which I want to bring over to my iMac (both on iPhoto 11). I have all the Sharing settings correct and can share her entire iPhoto Library except her projects!

If you follow the directions in this tutorial you can get a library with just the book and its pictures which will be small enough to easily copy over to your wife's Mac where she can work on it:

Of course she'll have to add any additional photos herself

Problems with editing text in iPhoto's Photo Book

Having clicked 'vertical direction' when editing text on the cover of my photo book, I can no longer edit text. The original text that was there is still there, horizontal, and I cannot get rid of it. Does anyone know how to reverse this?

Firstly check how the indents are done in Word. If You don't have Word to check it then Show Hidden Characters in InD and check it there– sometimes authors or editors of the text use different methods to indent text (tab characters, spaces or Word styles etc–there are many ways to do that). You can correct it all in InD. I've never seen anything get lost in .doc import but I always see when editor does unlogical things when writing. Indent must be always controlled by paragraph style. Maybe imported text paragraphs are using different imported styles? Check paragraphs in InD do they have indents in their style or not. Create Your own style with indent and mark Your paragraphs with Your style. Only way to control your text is through your styles.
