Move multiple events into one album

Hi,
I am trying to tidy up our photos on iPhoto.
Is there a fast, easy way to move multiple 'Events' into one 'Folder'
For example:
We have all of our photos from our honeymoon in Europe saved as seperate 'Events' According to the location. It was a 3 month trip so there are a lot of 'Events' or locations. Is there a way i can select all of them and put them into the Honeymoon 'folder' without them all merging into one big album?
I want to keep them as separate events within the folder so we can remember where they were taken.
I have been trying to drag the 'Event' over to the Honeymoon 'Folder' but instead of just going straight in there it creates a new unnamed folder on the left panel, and then i have to drag the event up to the honeymoon folder and delete the unnamed folder. It is proving rather time consuming and i have over 12000 photos to sort.
Any help would be great. Simple terms please!!
Thanks

lf you drag an event onto a folder in the left hand pane the photos in that Event will be added to a new album in that folder with the same name as the Event. .

How do you merge multiple songs into one album?

When I added a downloaded album to iTunes, it created one album for each track. How do I merge all of these albums/tracks into one album?

Some albums will fracture into a million pieces if you have different artist names. How the columns are sorted can effect this.
If it is a multiple artists on one album select 'Compilation' in the options section for all of the songs on the album.
NOTE: You need to have multiple items selected to set this flag!

Merging Multiple Artists Into One Album

Ok so I donwloaded a CD called Buzz Cuts with alot of great artisits. Now my problem is there are 30 songs and Itunes is showing 30 different albums even though they are all from the same CD. Its messing up because of all the different artists. How can I merge them all into one album called Buzz Cuts. Or is there a way to sort them. Its a pain having 30 extra cds at the top screen. Please help.

All of this can be adjusted by simply right clicking a song and selecting "Get info." Under the info tab, you can customize things like crazy. For instance, you can insert into the "album" field the title of the compilation.

I can't move multiple pictures into an album

I have been using iPhoto for years and just upgraded to iLife. Now I can only move pictures into an album one at a time. If I select more that one, nothing happens. Any suggestions?

Can I use Consolidate Files to move different tracks into one Album?

No, that's not what the Consolidate command is for. That command for getting all your track files into a single folder. To get all the tracks in an album to appear together, just Get Info on the tracks and make the album name all the same for each track. See:

Try this general troubleshooting procedure:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

A music album is listed multiple times in my library but each listing only has a few songs in it-not the full listing. How can I combine them into one album and get rid of other duplicate listings?

Several music albums listed in my IPhone 5 music library are listed multiple times, but each one only has a portion of the songs listed. How can I combine them to make one album?

First....Thank you so much for your prompt reply. I am sorry for not getting back to you regarding your suggestion-I had computer issues that just got resolved. Also, this is my first foray into online chat rooms so I have a lot to learn to precisely state my issue! I did as you suggested and all the songs list the same album when I go into each song's "get info". However, I am not sure how to edit as you suggested. When I downloaded this album originally, for some reason it broke up into several albums each with different songs from the original album. I am trying to consolidate them back into one album in my library. I would greatly appreciate further assistance if you can. Also, I do not use "the cloud" to store any data and would like a good source of info on how to do this. Thanks so much for your patience!

Add multiple libraries to one album

Can you add multiple libraries that have been previously downloaded to one album?

In Revel, libraries are where images are truly stored. Albums are just simple containers for organization and sharing. For any given library, an image can belong to a number of albums. And if you delete an album, images remain safe in the main library.
It sounds like you want to consolidate images from multiple libraries into one location. Currently, Revel does not allow one to copy or move images between libraries. The only thing I can recommend is to import your images again into the library you where you want to consolidate. If the images exist only in other Revel libraries, you will need to export them first, and then re-import them to the desired library.
If I didn't quite speak to your needs, please let me know so I can try to offer better help.

I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album?

I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album? I was trying to move several albums onto a USB drive and it stated all other files exist at this location. They are pictures taken at different times and have the same number I guess.

In iPhoto albums may contain photos with the same file name - iPhoto handles that just fine
If you are exporting them to move somewhere else use the sequential file name feature of export to give each file a unique name

How Do I Group Multiple Disks as One Album?

I've got the latest iTunes update, 11.0.4, and as with the update before it, I'm supposed to be able to group multiple disks as one album, but I can't figure out how, and can't find any directions at Apple.
I've lately begun ripping my large collection of symphonies and operas on CD into iTunes. Operas especially almost always come on two, three, or even four CD's, BUT IT'S ALL THE SAME OPERA, and the CD's come in the same boxed set. On top of that, there really aren't any "tracks" in an opera; the plot and the music unroll seamlessly from beginning to end (that sometimes takes 5 or 6 hours, which goes with the operatic territory).
On my CD player, I'm used to a pause between disks, but now that I've figured out how to get the "tracks" on each CD to play in order on iTunes (not so intuitive), I'd like to be able to go from the last "track" on Disk 1 to the first track on Disk 2 without interruption, since the technology should be able to support that option.
In the INFO box, I've tried keeping "1 of 3," "2 of 3," "3 of 3." No joy. So I've tried erasing the first element, 1, 2, 3, and just leaving the total number of disks. Again, no joy.
Since the album name is often filled in with something like "Carmen [Disk 1]" for example, and since Albums should have exactly the same name so that iTunes can figure out that in fact, they belong to the same work, I've tried deleting '[Disk 1]" etc. on all 3, leaving just "Carmen" in the appropriate space on the INFO panel for each of the 3 disks. Doesn't work.
Has anyone else been afflicted with the same problem?
Has anyone got a solution?

Have you seen this helpful article:
Grouping tracks into albums:
http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp
In the INFO box, I've tried keeping "1 of 3," "2 of 3," "3 of 3."
That is correct. Don't erase the first element, 1, 2, 3, that should not matter.
Since the album name is often filled in with something like "Carmen [Disk 1]" for example, and since Albums should have exactly the same name so that iTunes can figure out that in fact, they belong to the same work, I've tried deleting '[Disk 1]" etc. on all 3, leaving just "Carmen" in the appropriate space on the INFO panel for each of the 3 disks.
Also correct. Also chec, if the "Sort album name" is the same.
Do the artists differ on the tracks?
Then set the "Album Artist" on all CDs to the same name (Various Artists), also check, if the album sort artists names differ.

Is this one of those CDs where the main artist asks their friend to sing a song with them?
Such as, Slash's new album. Track 1 is "Slash Feat. Ian Astbury", track 2 is "Slash Feat. Ozzy Osbourne" and so on.
To fix this, select all the tracks on that album, right-click > Get Info, and say YES to changing multiple items.
Put "Slash" in the *Album Artist* field (for this example, of course).
Make sure it is the *Album Artist* field, not the plain Artist field.

How do I move a photo into an album in the new Photos application?

How do I move a photo into an album in the new Photos application?

The simplest way is to show the Sidebar at all times - you can reveal it with options-command-S ⌥⌘S.
With the sidebar visible, you can simply drag the photos from the Moments or other albums to the album in the sidebar. You can select and drag multiple photos at a time by selecting the first photo, holding down the shift key and selecting more photos. If the album does not yet exist, select the photos and press ⌘N for "File > New album" to create a new album with the selected photos.

Quick answer: Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields. If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.

SQL Query -How2bring multiple results into one field using Formatted Search

Hi Everyone
i am trying to bring in the results of the field dbo.Lot_ITEM.LOT using a formatted search into a row level using the following query:
SELECT     dbo.LOT_ITEM.LOT
FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN dbo.LOT_ITEM ON dbo.DLN1.ItemCode = dbo.LOT_ITEM.ITEM
WHERE     dbo.LOT_ITEM.ITEM=$[DLN1.ItemCode]
however the result of the dbo.Lot_ITEM.LOT field could be more then one value depending on how many lots are assigned for that item
(for example this query would be similar to assigning batch/serial numbers to an item being despatched - as you can choose multiple batches/serials depending on the quantities available and required and then move from the left to the right side of the selection window) if that makes sense!
is it possible to bring in the multiple results into one field? and how can i amend the above query to include this?
Thankyou in advance :o)

Hi Suda
Thanks for replying :o) but im not sure about the query?
just to simplify it (as the query im working with is to do with 3rd party addons) i have used the serial/batchs field instead and used standard demo database fields from SBO 2005 sp01:
SELECT     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_IntrSerial
FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN
                dbo.ixvSerialNoFact ON dbo.DLN1.DocEntry = dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry
WHERE     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.ItemCode='g1000' and dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry = '193'
The above brings me the relevant results but when i change it to be used in a formatted search:
SELECT     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_IntrSerial
FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN
                dbo.ixvSerialNoFact ON dbo.DLN1.DocEntry = dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry
WHERE     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.ItemCode=$[dln1.itemcode] and dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry = $[dln1.DocEntry]
i cant seem to get it to work - now this may be because the serial number is not allocated until teh record is added to the system, however when this happens i am unable to go back in and manually trigger the query as the delivery note rows cannot be selected!
i think as what im originally wanting an answer for is same as this example, im wanting to know if this is even possible?
Thanks
