Making a recipe book

Hi all,
I want all of my recipies in one place and have thought about typing them up in pages and saving it on icloud so I can use my iPad as a cook book in the kitchen.
My goal is to have each recipe on its own page, so if a recipe takes up 3/4 of a page I have to press 'return' until I get onto a fresh page. This is ok if I keep tacking recipies on the end of the book, but I want them in order. So if I get a nice starter recipe - I want it at the front of the book which throws the rest of the book because I've 'returned' to the bottom of each page, so I'm forever correcting it. Also if I alter or add to a recipe I have to backspace the returns because the recipies shift all over the place. I hope i've written that in an understandable way! Help!

The software i see needs the recipes to be typed in. Yes, I am talking about recipes that are hand written that I can scan and have them organized as in a recipe book.
So far, I have been scanning each recipe into a folder on my desk top; multiple folders, each one named for each category (i.e. salads, beverages, main dishes....etc.)
I dont want to print anything. I want to open my kitchen computer and cook from one of MY recipies. I dont even need an index to find a recipe. I will just scroll thru the folder until I find the one I want.
I just thought there would be an easier way to do this!!!

  • I have created a family recipe book in iBooks - can I print it using iPhoto's print service?

    I have created a family recipe book in iBooks - can I print it using iPhoto's print service? I don't want to print it on our home printer - I want to print multiple copies for family members through the Apple iPhoto book printing service.  Can anyone help me please?

    There is no Apple print service for iBooks, and iPhoto can also only print photo books created in iPhoto.
    Print your iBook to pdf. Then you have several option:
    Save the pdf to a thumbsdrive/stick  and take it to the nearest print shop close to your home.
    Search online for "self publishing" services available in your country.
    Recreate your book as an iPhoto Book. This will be a lot of work, since iPhoto's templates are more suitable for Picture books than books with lots of formatted text. To speed things up, you could use "Preview" to export the pages of your book as jpegs (high quality, at least 300 dpi) and add themas full-page photos to a new PhotoBook. This can be sent to apple for printing.
    But the first two options would be much less trouble and probably be less expensive.

  • How do I sort the photos in the photo pane when making a photo book?

    There's a certain order that I'd like to see the photos I want to use when making a photo book.  But the order that I have it in (which is done manually and not by date) in the album does not appear in the same order when I want to turn some of those photos into a photo book.  For some reason the photos that appear on the right side of the screen, "photo pane" show the photos in a different order.  Is there some kind of setting that I'm missing?

    No - they are in date order - the only solution I've seen is to ues teh batch change command time & Date command on the photos in the album to put them in date order to match the album  --  or just drag them to the book pages in the order you want them

  • When making a photo book, my iPhoto freezes during uploading the book to the store after assembly.  I have attempted this 4 times now and I don't know what to do! I know the file size is massive due quantity of large images. How can I get past this?

    Hi shldr2thewheel,
         it has been a while since we have last spoke, I would like to let you know, I am still working on getting used to the switch from windows to a Mac/Apple system. I do have a new question for you, I did purchase In Design CS5.5 through journeyed.com through Cuyahoga Community College of which I attend as a student, is there a way to purchase an online book through iTunes to learn that as well? Also, you know me, the struggling student, I would also, when and if the book can be purchased through the iTunes, would need to know if you do know of a much easier book for struggling students like myself and at a reasonable price as well for the In Design CS5.5 program. Our campus bookstore had closed early, and, so did the colleges library and our local library here where I do live, so, I cannot go to either place to purchase a book or to take out a book, plus cash funds are low at this moment as well but, I do have money left on the iTunes account to use, if it can be used. So, can it be used, the iTunes money, towards finding a low priced online book? I am in great need of assistance as I have a project due for my one course for this Tuesday, September 4, 2012.
    Sincerely in need of help once again,

  • Creating a recipe book app

    Hey all!
    I'm putting together a recipe book for my mum but wanted to give it to her as an app on her phone rather than in print. Looking into it, it seems creating an app to just put on one person's phone isn't as straight forward as I'd hoped so I'm now looking for an alternative. I've put it together in Photoshop, so essentially it could simply be a bunch of images for her to scroll through - so a simple homescreen shortcut to a gallery with all these images in would have done the trick on a very basic level, but it seems this isn't possile either?!
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I've put together basic websites, so I'm not afraid to get involved and learn a new program/skill if necessary, but would like it to be available offline for her, so I don't want to just put a website together and create a homescreen icon for that.
    Any advice would be much appreciated!
    Thanks in advance...

    App? Book? Images?
    This isn't a dev question, but it would seem easiest to make a slideshow and then output a PDF. If that turns out to be too big to email, give it to her on a thumbdrive and let her load it via iTunes, then use iBooks etc. to view.
    If you have further questions, try the OS X forums - maybe use iPhoto to make a picture book with text and output a PDF from there.
    If you decide to make an app instead, feel free to ask specific questions about that process here or on the iOS Dev Forums (need to be a registered dev in a paid program there).

  • Making a photographic book in landscape and portrait mode in iBooks author

    Hello, I am making a photographic book with the iBooks author and I have a problem that I cannot resolve. The book is only with photos, without text and I am putting every photo on a whole page. I made around 15 pages in landscape orientation and now I want to make the same thing with the same photos in portrait, but I don't know how to arrange the photos to match when the ipad is flipped. The whole idea is that I want people to see different crops of the photos when they flip the iPad. I hope that you understood me and will eventually come up with solution...  Really thanks!

    Hi user_1,
    If you are looking to reshape the graph based on whether the user has selected portrait or landscape mode, you could use a property node for your graph that executes in the same case as the print orientation, in which you reshape the graph using plotareasize or another property. I've attached an example of this.
    Hope this helps!

  • Possible to adapt Address Book into a Recipe Book?

    Would it be possible to copy the address book program and adapt it into a recipe book? It looks like it would work. You could set up different groups for types of recipes or certain dishes. You could search for recipes that have certain ingredients and even have recipes that have pictures attached in the notes section.
    I use the internet for my recipe searching and being able to collate them into something like this would be awesome.

    Sorry, but you cannot do that. You can only run one instance of Address Book, regardless of what you use it for, and you can't modify it for this purpose anyway. There are other dedicated, third-party applications available for this purpose.

  • Is it possible to use more than 1 theme in making an iPhoto book?

    I am looking at making a 'Picture Book' in iPhoto '11. 
    1)  Am I able to use more than 1 theme per book?
    2) If not, am I able to change the background colour/layout to my own choice?

    Yes - so long as the program uses Apple standard printing - just do a print to PDF using the send PDF to iPhoto option

  • Looking for cocktail recipe book for iPod

    I just recently got my iPod. However, several weeks ago when I was on iTunes they offered a cocktail recipe book for your iPod. That way all of your cocktail recipes would be in your iPod. Now that I have my iPod I can't find this anywhere on iTunes. Has anyone else seen this or know how I can find it. I have searched everwhere and have found nothing.

    I haven't seen anything like that in the iTunes Store, but there's a few available elsewhere.

  • When making an iphoto book I double click to open a page and nothing happens

    When making an iphoto book nothing happens when I double click to open a page to work on it.

    Try the following: make a temporary, backup copy of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • HT201170 Force quit iPhoto while making a photo book

    I had to force quit iPhoto while I was making a photo book. The photo book is still there but the photos I recently added (after laboriously scanning them in) are no longer viewable in the side bar with all the project photos. They are also gone from my iPhoto library. When I view each photo page individually the 'missing photos' are still on the pages yet when I view 'all pages' they are not there. Worried if I go to purchase, they won;t be on the pages at all.
