Multiple Folders

I am new to iphoto and really confused about the various folders and subfolders that iphoto seems to generate. I am not sure which to go to when I want to attach a photo file to an email.
When I go into my photos folder I have my iphoto photo library folders broken down by year and then a set of 'data' folders, 'original' folders and 'modified' folders again by year.
Can someone explain what these all mean and what goes where?
Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First be aware of the warnings in Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto Library folder from the Finder. Do do so is committing the cardinal sin of iPhoto.
Regarding attaching to mail, if you use Mail, Eudora, Entourage and have it set up as your email application in iPhoto's preferences you just need select a photo and click on the Mail button in the bottom toolbar.
If you're using a web based email then you may have to export the file(s) to the desktop and then add them from there to the email. If you're using GMail there's a way to set Mail up to use it. Check the GMail site.
The Data folders are the thumbnail files. The Modified folder contains those edited photos. The edited copy is placed there so the original is untouched in the Originals folder. Do not edit, rename or move a file or folder inside the iPhoto library folder from the Finder! Under normal use of iPhoto you should never have to go into the library folder via the Finder.
Do you Twango?

  • Shortcut to close multiple folders in List View

    In the Finder, in list view, I have multiple folders open (using the triangle by the Folder name). I'd like to be able to close all the open folders at once. I know that holding Option while clicking the red Close button on a window will close multiple windows and I want to do something similar with the folders.
    I'm sure I knew how to do this once but can't remember now.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Command-click or otherwise select all of them, and then push the left arrow key.

  • How can "multiple folders/files" be deleted in ONE PSEXEC COMMAND LINE

    I can delete remote folders/files via bat command with psexec (below) but; 
    It takes a little time because of the 9 different folders. Maybe, looping of txt file can be used for different folders.
    So how we can delete multiple folders in ONE PSEXEC COMMAND LINE?
    Here my working code but it does its job in 9 steps :(
    psexec \\%PC% cmd /c "for /d %%a in ("c:\Users\1*.*") do rd /s /q "%%a""

  • Multiple folders on a single MP3 cd

    when I put a MP3 cd in my car stereo, it asks me which folder do you want to play? This leads me to believe that I can put multiple folders on one cd, and I was wondering the logistics of this. Can I simply burn one folder on the cd, pick another play list in itunes and click burn while leaving the same CD in my drive?

    We don't support this yet but we are starting to look at what it would take to add this to the product.

  • Can I export multiple folders at the same time, keeping the album structure

    I'm exporting all of my photos from 2010 so far. Is there a way to export multiple folders at the same time, while keeping the existing album structure? It seems that when I try it, iPhoto exports them all to the same folder.
    I really don't want to do this one album at a time, and here's why -
    I'd like to select all of the albums, then export, using the plugin, to WalMart so that I can order prints.

    Check out [iPhotoToDisk|http://www.iphototodisk.com/index.html]
    I'd like to select all of the albums, then export, using the plugin, to WalMart so that I can order prints.
    Why not upload to Walmart from iPhoto? Check out the first option here:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Would like to be able to select and move multiple folders in one operation.

    Unless I'm missing something really simple here, there doesn't seem to be any easy way of selecting and moving multiple folders at once.
    Here's a little example of a simple task I want to do. I presently have a multitude of folders each seperated by the day the photo was taken on. So in my case for a given year I might have maybe 50 folders or so. It's getting a little cluttered, so all I want to be able to do is to take all the folders for one given year and place them in a folder with that year's date. This should be a simple 30 second task, simply select the folders I want moved by either <CTRL> or <SHIFT> clicking them, and then dragging and dropping them into the new folder.
    Right now, the only way I've figured how to do this this is to drag and drop each folder one by one, never mind that this is a slow process in itself, but to add to the slowness, whenever I try to drag and drop more than one folder consecutively, I get a message saying ... "Can not move a folder while another move operation is in progress...blah blah". Not that I want this to be the fix, but haven't they heard of queuing?
    I've seen people on the net suggest that for this type of task, you should simply move the folders in Windows first and then locate them in Lightroom. Again, unless I'm missing something very simple here, there doesn't seem to be a way to locate multiple missing folders at once. If I have to manually locate each missing folder one by one, then I'd rather just do the drag and drop thing as this would actually be faster.
    I've also tried moving the folders from within Windows first and then using the "Synchronize folder" option, yeah sure this works, but I lose any changes that I've done in Develop module. Not what I'm looking for.

    Daniel is right. It´s really strange that I can´t move several folders in one move! When I need more space on my laptop I move a group of folders (one folder for every photosession) to an archive. Therefore I really would like to move them in one click, not "baby-sitting" the move of each folder.

  • Save same bookmark in multiple folders without having to do it manually. Is there and add-on that can help me fix this issue?

    If I have a bookmark in a folder and I save a new folder that may overlap with the old bookmarks the bookmarks from the old folder are automatically removed, this is a problem for me and I cant always manually go fix it.
    If I have a folder named A1-D1 that has bookmarks A1, B1, C1 & D1
    & now I am searching bookmarks related to A & want a new folder A1-A4 with bookmarks A1, A2, A3 & A4
    when I save the new group of bookmarks it removes A1 from A1-D1, which is horrible.
    & its very time consuming & frustrating to have to manually fix this every time.
    I know Firefox did this on purpose to prevent duplicate bookmarking but this is worse than having the the same bookmark being repeated more than it needs to. Now when I am looking at folder A1-D1 i don't even know how many of them have disappeared & have to search all over again.
    I hope they fix it soon.
    Please let me know if there is an add-on that will prevent Firefox form ruining my bookmarks.

    This extension gets around that limitation for me. <br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-bookmark-here-2/
    Really nothing to be fixed, that "feature" was added to Firefox 3 when the "Tags" feature was added to Firefox bookmarks. The concept is to use Tags to categorize a single bookmark with multiple Tags, instead of the user saving the same bookmark to multiple folders. I don't care for Tags and save the same bookmark to whatever folders I want it in using that extension.

    I want the folders I already backed up to come together into one folder when that year is over. Is there a way to manually do that or automatic through TM?
    I'm quite sure there is no "automatic" way to do this. I've never heard of anyone trying it either. I suppose if you wanted try it, you could simply create a new folder in the same partition TM is on, label it for that year, then gather all the days for that year and drag/drop them into the folder. I suspect (but do not know) you'd be risking the continuity of your backups, meaning TM would simply start over again, meaning that next back up would start a new series of backups, with the first one roughly equalling the entire capacity of your internal HD, instead of adding only the new data to the previous backup. Once again, I would recommend against it, unless you're fine with TM starting a new series of backups if it doesn't work out the way you want it to. Hope you'll post back with results so we can learn from it.

  • Bridge CS6 Script to Find Multiple Images in Multiple folders.

    Is it possible to have a script to find multiple images within multiple folders that is on a external hard drive?
    For instances I have a external hard drive assuming it's for a library of pictures.
    Inside this hard drive has folders named as below
    1-1000
    1001-2000
    2001-3000
    3001-4000
    If I had a perfect csv file for example that calls out for specific pictures for example 2, 10,1500 and 2000 (remember think big, it may be a larger list than this it could be hundreds or thousands of pictures); is there a script that would allow me to find these images and save a copy of them on to my desktop so that way I don't have to hunt for them in the old fashion way? I can read scripts but writing them is a different story.

    If you want to go with Batch I would recommend creating an Action of more or less these steps:
    • set the resolution to the same as the background image’s
    • change the image from Background Layer to regular Layer if necessary
    • convert it to a Smart Object
    • add a Drop Shadow Layer Style to the image (do not use Global Angle)
    • place the background image (File > Place …)
    • move it behind the image layer
    • Image > Reveal All
    • make Selection from that layer’s transparency (cmd-click its icon in the Layers Panel) and use Image > Crop
    • select and transform the image layer to fit the intended position
    This would naturally work out best if the images had the same size and proportions.
    For the reflection on the floor duplicate the image, flip it vertically, move it in position and reduce its opacity to maybe 10%.
    Realistically you may have to hide it partially behind the pillows, a Vector Mask would be an option.

  • Please add the ability to add multiple folders to the assets folder in order to better organize large numbers of files.

    Please add the ability to add multiple folders to the assets folder in order to better organize large numbers of files.

    Hello KDLadage
    Thank you for your recommendation. I understand the challenges of managing large numbers of files on the My Files page. I also understand the need to preserve project files.
    Perhaps a compromise would be to create an Archive tab under My Files. Previous versions and retired project files could then be automatically moved into this holding area when a new version is published, thus preserving the files in a separate area that is still accessible to the author.
    I will submit this suggestion to our product management team to consider as a future enhancement.

    Is it possible to search for multiple folders with the same name and then select them all and change the permissions on just those folders .i.e. Search for the budget folders in all client folders and lock them down to just the project managers. Without having to go to each folder and apply the permissions.

  • Search multiple folders and muiltiple files and combine to single file

     I want to search multiple folders for muliple files and combine to single file name. The files I'm searching have same format, but where named
    differently in each of there processes. Now I want to combine based upon -SearchFor .. I'm having a problem with -Filter $SearchFor
    Code:
    Function Search-Files{
    Param([String[]]$Locations,[String[]]$SearchFor, $AppendTo)
    Begin
    If(-Not (Test-Path $AppendTo)){New-Item $AppendTo -ItemType File -Force}
    Process
    ForEach($Location in $Locations)
    $Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Location -Filter $SearchFor -Recurse
    ForEach($File in $Files)
    Get-Content -Path $FIles.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
    End{}
    Search-Files -Locations "\\servera\public\t1\usa\saleshist\","\\serverb\public\t2\usa\saleshist\",-SearchFor "dodetail-cm.txt","somstr.txt",-AppendTo "\\virt1\Saleshist_data_load_files\saleshdr.load.csv"

    I think you might want to use -Include instead of -Filter.  Your -Include parameter accepts wildcards, i.e. *.docx or *somstr.txt
    Your command to actually append the content should be:
    Get-Content -Path $File.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
    You had $Files.FullName which might behave unexpectedly, if at all.
    Your actual command has several issues.
    Search-Files -Locations "\\servera\public\t1\usa\saleshist\","\\serverb\public\t2\usa\saleshist\" -SearchFor "dodetail-cm.txt","somstr.txt" -AppendTo "\\virt1\Saleshist_data_load_files\saleshdr.load.csv"
    You had commas following the lists of locations and searchfor terms, did that even work? Without seeing your source files or your target file I can only advise you so much, but ideally you would import-csv and export-csv.  Depending on the contents,
    you may be able to get away with get-content and out-file though.
    I hope this post has helped!
