MobileMe Gallery deleted photos also deleted from Event

I have just noticed what looks like new behavior in iPhoto '11 when deleting a photo from a MobileMe gallery.
Here is what I did to recreate the problem/behavior:
1) Created iPhoto Event with 2 images in it.
2) Shared the Event to a new MobileMe Gallery by: Share, MobileMe Gallery, Add
3) Waited for the Event to be shared to MobileMe Gallery.
4) Opened the Gallery in iPhoto under the Source list, Web, MobileMe Gallery
5) Deleted 1 of the 2 images in the MobileMe Gallery, right-clicked, and selected Trash.
--- the Image is now deleted from BOTH the MobileMe Gallery AND the iPhoto Event (see step 1) ---
I confirmed this by opening the iPhoto trash and finding the image there, and then opening the iPhoto Event and finding the image missing there.
I also just tried this with an Album...
1) Created a new Album.
2) Dragged an image from an Event into the Album.
3) Published the Album to MobileMe using Share/MobileMe Gallery/Add.
4) Opened the Gallery inside iPhoto Source list, and deleted the image.
5) Opened the Album - image deleted. Opened the Event - image ALSO deleted. Opened Trash - the image is in the Trash.
This seems like a bug, or at least behavior for which a warning should be given by the Trash dialogue box before deleting the image. Deleting an image from an Event after publishing the Album is especially surprising, and seems counter to the way Albums have always acted.

Yes. It's not a bug. You're opting to delete the photo from the library with those key strokes, not just the gallery. If you send the photo to the trash it will be removed from the event and all other items in the library that is was assigned to.
To delete a photo from just the gallery (or album or book or slideshow) select it and use the Delete key. The photo will remain in all other locations in the library.

  • If I delete photos in "iPhoto" will those photos also delete in the application "Photos"

    Hey guys! I was wondering if I delete photos in "iPhoto" will those photos also delete in the new application "Photos".
    I transfered all my photos to "Photos" the second it came out, so I'd find it strange if I still needed "iPhoto"
    Thanks a lot!

    No, they will not be deleted from Photos. The two libraries are totally independent of each other.
    YEs, you can now delete the iPhoto Library, but if you want yo do this to gain disk space, you won't see much of a difference. Reason being that both Libraries merely point to the same image files on your disk via hard links.
    For now, I would suggest moving the iPhoto Library to an external disk "just in case."

  • How to delete photos or songs from iPhone?m by deleting photos or songs

    The Apps store tells me I can get an update on an App I downloaded, but to make room for it, I must first delete songs or photos. I have no clue how to do this without also deleting photos or songs from my Mac computer. Is there an easier (or smarter) way to make these deletions from the iPhone?
    Thanks.
    Ralph

    If these pictures were transferred from your Mac and you use iPhoto for photo storage selecting iPhoto albums to be transferred to your iPhone, deselect the iPhoto albums under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences followed by a sync to remove the photos from your iPhone. If these were photos that were captured by your iPhone, use iPhoto to import the photos. When the import process is complete, iPhoto will prompt you to erase the imported photos from your iPhone just as when importing photos from any digital camera.
    If you want to remove songs that were transferred to your iPhone and you choose an iTunes Playlist or Playlists to be transferred to your iPhone, remove the songs from the Playlist or Playlists in iTunes followed by a sync to remove the songs from your iPhone.

    No early version of iPhoto can open a Library from a later version.
    You can try revert the Library with iPhoto Library Manager

    After transferring photos and videos from my iphone to icloud, how to delete photos and videos from my iPhone 4S 

    Thanks to both of you for your replies.
    For some reason, the Camera & Scanner Wizard has started to detect the phone now. Maybe it will stop again in the future, but for now it's OK.
    I do have iTunes installed, and the iPhone's still not appearing in Windows Explorer. I might reinstall if the problem recurs.
    Yep, it's an official Apple cable, but it's a bit old. I got it with my iPod a few years back. Maybe i should start using that as the charger cable, and the new cable i got with my iPhone for syncing?
    Thanks again for your replies.

  • How do I delete photos of iPhone from my computer? No PC with me

    How do I delete photos of iPhone from my computer? No PC with me

    You mean photos that were transferred from the PC to the iPhone?  You can't delete them directly on the device, not without erasing everything off the device.  You'd have to sync the device with iTunes again, and choose to have no pictures synced.

  • How do I delete photos on iPad from camera roll without deleting from albums? If I do does it also delete from my mac photos?

    How do I delete photos off camera roll on iPad without deleting from other albums? Will this action also delete the photos off my mac?

    Album photo entries on the iPad are only pointers to the actual photo file which is stored in the Camera Roll. There is only one copy of the photo.
    Deleting a camera roll photo on the iPad will not delete the photo from your Mac.

  • Permanently Deleting Photos and Folders from iPhoto

    I just purchased my first iMac on April 2, 2008 and simply love it. Goodbye Windows. WooHoo...
    OK, now for my question. I am a semi-professional photographer that commonly takes about 500-1,000 photos during any given photo shoot. Normally (on Windows with Adobe Photoshop), I would load all 1,000 photos into my Adobe Catalog and review them. After a few days of edits and review, I may only want to keep the best 50-100 photos and I delete the others. But when I use iPhoto, even if I delete the 900 extra photos from my Library, they still sit in the iPhoto Library folders and take up space. I have opened the iPhoto Library Package and can see the Data, Modified and Original folders with all of the unwanted files, but I was advised by Apple Support to NEVER delete or remove files by opening the iPhoto "Package".
    Is there any way to physically remove the unwanted photos from iPhoto once they are in my iPhoto Library, or do I need to edit and review them outside of iPhoto before I load them into the iPhoto Library which seems to be a permanent thing?
    This is a common process for photographers who take a lot of photos. It's nice to be able to review and edit them before deciding on the best ones to keep. Surely there must be an option from within iPhoto that would physically removed the deleted photos and update the iPhoto Library correctly, without having to open the iPhoto Package and risk corrupting the Library.
    Since each photo will be between 4MB (jpg) to 10MB (RAW) in size, do I need to use another application for my initial sorting, review and editing, then only import into iPhoto the "Keepers"? If so, what application should I be using?
    Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    As stated above:
    Put the pics in the iPhoto trash and then iPhoto Menu -> Empty the Trash
    This removes the pics from iPhoto and the Hard Drive.
    A couple of notes:
    1. You need to be in the Library view to do this. If you delete from an album it only removes the pics from the Album. To put pics from an Album directly into the trash use the -delete keystroke
    Are you sure that you're in the Library View? This is the most common reason this doesn't work. On a longer shot there may be minor issues with your HD, but first make sure that you're in the Library View when deleting.
    Also, I want to have iPhoto write the "Modified" version of my images on top of the "Original"... to save HD space. Can that be done?
    No. iPhoto preserves your Original file no matter what. This is hardwired into the application and there is no easy way to defeat it.
    You may export all your pics from iPhoto. Empty out the iPhoto Library (put the pics in the trash, empty the trash) then re-import the one previously exported. But this is long winded and will need to be done as your library grows. And, of course, this will defeat the Non-Destructive editing feature of iPhoto.
    You can run a library from an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Of, if you don't want your Original file preserved, then simply don't use iPhoto. There are alternatives out there. Search on MacUpdate.

  • Are deleted images also deleted from books?

    I need to archive some of my images since iPhoto performance is going down the tubes. I have about 6,000 images with a Library of about 8GB.
    If I archive some of my rolls from 2003, 2003 and 2004 by burning to disk, and then deleting those rolls from the iPhoto Library, will it also delete the images from the created books that use images from those rolls?
    I did a quick test by creating a book using test images and then deleting those images from the Library. The book appears to stay intact but I'm not sure if I will still be able to re-order the specific books and/or edit and re-order.
    Can anyone confirm that the books stay intact even though the original images have been deleted from the main iPhot Library?
    Thanks.

    -You can archive the older photos but just don't delete the images that you have in your books
    -Another solution is to create a library for each book. the library would only include the images that are in the book. Burn that Library folder in the Finder and your book and data for the book will be saved.
    When you want to order the book in the future you would copy that library from the disc to your HD. Launch iPhoto while depressing the Option key and choose to open another library. Navigate to your book library and choose it. You can then choose to buy your book. When you are done, you can delete the book library you copied to the desktop.
    -If you don't want to create a new library to recreate your book, you can go about it a round about way working backwards. You need some room on your HD for this.
    Duplicate your library in the finder. Launch iPhoto with the Option key depressed and open the duplicate library. Delete every image in the library that is not in your book. Empty iPhoto's trash (do this every 100 images or so)
    Make sure iPhoto's trash is empty before you burn that library in the Finder
    Now burn that iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Don't forget to name that library something like "Family book Library"

  • How can I delete photos when importing from iPhone 4

    I'm using Aperture 3.13 on Mac OS X 10.7.1.  When I import photos from my iPhone 4 I am never asked to delete files from the camera roll.
    What am I doing wrong?  How can I have Aperture delete photos from the camera roll once they are imported?

    Aperture won't delete the photos from your iPhone. Most users have settled on using Image Capture ater importing into Aperture to delete the photos from the iPhone.

    You can't delete the Photo Library. The iPhone stores photos the same way iPhoto does on a Mac. All photos are synced to your Photo Library. The various albums/folders merely contain pointers to the actual photos which are in your Photo Library, they are not duplicates.

  • Delete Photos Sync'd from a dead MBP?

    I have a collection of photos that were added from my previous Mac Book Pro (it died a horrible death).  I would like to remove them from my iPad, but they will not display the Delete icon when they are selected in Photos.
    How can I get rid of these pictures since the originating system is no longer available?
    Tim

    Thanks, Allan.  That cleared all of the photos sync'd from the dead MBP and it left my current images imported directly from my EOS.
    That's about as non-obvious as anything I've ever run into.
