No keywords under photos in iphoto 11?

What's with iPhoto 11 not displaying keywords below the photos? So much easier with that option please add it in future updates.

You may like "Lyn". Similar to iPhoto and keywords are correctly shown below each image. Cost $20.

Why aren't all photos showing up under "Photos" in iPhoto?

Hi
I have noticed that not all photos show up when I have "Photos" selected in the Library on the left. There are photos I just imported from my iPhone and they show up when I select "Last import" or "Last 12 months" but not unter "Photos". Any ideas what is wrong here and how to fix this?
(btw. I have no hidden photos)
Kind regards
Sebastian
I am running the latest iPhoto and OS X

If the Photos are under 'Last Import' or 'Last N Months' then they are in the Library somewhere, just not where you are expecting them to be. We know this as both Lat Import and 'Last N Months' are not places, just listings of elements in the the Library.
The two most common reasons that they can't be found is either an incorrect date on the camera or the Sorting (View Menu -> Sort Photos - or Sort Events, as appropriate) has changed.
Quick route to find them: Right-click on one of the images in Last Import and select 'Show Event'. This will bring you to the image in the Library.

How to use italics,fonts in description under photos in iPhoto

How do I use italics, fonts etc in the description below the photo in iphoto

In the iPhoto Window? You can't.

In my previous version of iphoto, I could display the keyword under each picture. However, since my last upgrade, I do not see this feature. Was it discontinued?

In my previous version of iphoto, I could display the keyword under the photo. I don't see it in my latest upgrade. Is it still possible? How?

No it's not.
IPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback and let them know what you think.

Since the most recent iPhoto upgrade, I can't sync photos from iPhoto to my iPhone or iPad. This is so frustrating! whereas previously all I had to do was put 'sync' as a keyword,

Why can I no longer export photos from iPhoto to my iPhone and iPad? Previously, when I used 'sync' as a keyword for a photo, it automatically exported to the other devices when they were synced with computer. This no longer happens so I don't know how to get photos from the computer onto my iPhone & iPad. Can anyone help as it's most annoying. So often updating software has really negative side-effects such as this.

I add the keyword 'sync' to any photos I want added to the iPhone/iPad.
Then, during the regular process of syncing the iPhone/iPad with my computer (mac), the photos with that keyword would be copied onto the iPhone, iPad.
I've been doing it this way ever since I was shown how to; ie after I got my iPhone 2 years ago. And every time the process worked - until the last few weeks. Suddenly it doesn't do it any more.
I believe I have upgraded software (either iTunes or iPhoto or both) during this period. I try to keep my software updated but have noticed previously that the new version often is disappointing.
I've not tended to use Smart albums much.

I would like to see the added keywords under the picture like iPhoto does it. Is that possible? I cannot find an answer

I would like to see the added keywords under the picture like iPhoto does it. Is that possible? I cannot find an answer in Aperture 3.2.1

Hello Wontolla, I meant the Aperture main menu, there is a sub menu "View", see the Screenshot:
Set all flags in the Metadata Display submenu as I did, to show Metadata in Viewer and Browser, and then select "Customize"
Pick the Metadata fields you want to display for all views.
Make sure, that "Contents -> Keywords" is checked.

Yes - you need a min of 10 GB just to operate - with just 1 you certainly can lose photos and other critical things - you need to make space immediately - probably by moving your iPhoto library to a volume formatted Mac OS extended -
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

PDF of iPhoto book not displaying text under photos

Just created a wedding book in iPhoto 11 but when I saved it as pdf to proof it, text under photos was not there. I could see the top of some letters at bottom of photos. However, on my slide show and in reviewing the book in iPhoto, text is there. So, if I upload the wedding book to Apple (or whoever they contract with), will the text appear in the published book?

First there are no psychics here who can see the future - if you preview according to the Apple specs then the delivered product is guaranteed to match the resulting PDF
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.

IPhoto 11 "Show Extended Photo Info" item under "Photos"

In my iPhoto 11, under Photos in the menu bar, the first item is "Adjust Date and Time".
I do NOT see "Show Extended Photo Info".
How do I make this menu item appear?

You should post in -> Forum : Installing and using iPhoto '11.
How do I make this menu item appear?
You don't.
Click the little white i at the lower right of the photo to see the photo info.

Can I save captions (labels under the photos in iPhoto) in Aperture?

Can I save captions (labels under the photos in iPhoto) in Aperture?

The captions are indeed in iPhoto replacing the scan number under the photo.
I see, you want to save the name of the image version - both Aperture and iPhoto allow you to create multiple edited versions of the same original image file and in iPhoto you are seeing the name of the image version belbow the thumbnail of the image, if you change the title n the Info panel.
But they are not saved with the photos when burned to disc,apparently (correct me if I am werong).
I don't know, which iPhoto version you are currently using. When you export photos (in iPhoto '11) or image versions (in Aperture 3) as files to a folder on the disk, you can use the version name/Title as the filename. Both applications let you chose, how the exported file will be called. In iPhoto use the following settings, when exporting your images, to use the title as the filename:
Select the images in the Browser.
Use "File > Export"
Set the "Kind" to "Original" or "Current", depending on if you want to export the original or the edited version,
And then pick a format for the filename. To use the title/verson name as the filname instead of the scan number, set "File Name" to "Use Title".

What is the problem if when I connect my iphone to iphoto on my computer there is no option to sync to iphoto under photos dropdown

I am trying move photos from iphoto to my iphone but when I connect my ipone to my Mac there is no Sync option under the photo dropdown menu. Any thoughts on why?

You will need to do it via iTunes, Connect your iPhone then launch iTunes select your iPhone the click on the photos tab, you should be able to click what pictures you want on your iPhone.

When I imported my photos from iPhoto to Aperture, I appear to have lost all my keywords. Can I retrieve them and, if so, how?

Keywords are preserved if you use either the Import iPhoto Library or Show iPhoto Browser methods.

Photos in all album gone, but can see it under photo/event

Hi there,
All my photos gone in album (album gone too, just left with folder) after I switched on the computer this morning. However, most of the photos are (just not the photos which I uploaded yesterday) are basically "safe" under photo/ event, just not in the album list.
Any idea what can I do so I don't have to sort out all the photo again? I guess it must be some reasons till all the albums+most of the photos gone without clicking anything but just switched on the computer.
I've checked with lots of forums but seem nothing work with my situation. I am using iPhoto'11 and I have bout 500GB space in my hard-Drive.
Thanks!!!

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I cannot delete photos in iphoto

Suddenly I am unable to delete photos in iphoto with either the delete button, dragging to trash, or clicking on the trash icon. I am now ONLY able to delete by holding down option + command + delete buttons at the same time. I've combed these archives also and found a number of solutions to this problem:
Open disc utility and fix permissions
Go into safe mode, fix permissions, indices, etc. in disc utility
Go into safe mode, open iphoto, delete photo, empty trash. Close, reopen as usual, delete, empty trash.
Remove iphoto, remove pkg files, reload from system disc
NONE of these solutions has worked! Does anyone have any suggestions? I am running OSX 10.8.5.

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)

Help - can't access photos in iPhoto library after a restore

After a hard drive death, I got a new hard drive and put lots of new photos on iPhoto. Then I found some very old backup discs and used these to restore old photos. Unfortunately this has wiped the new photos from iPhoto... BUT when I go through Finder I can see them under Pictures. When I attempt to import them back to iPhoto it says it can't import them as they are already in the iPhoto Library - but I can't see them when I'm in iPhoto! How do I get them back?!
I have a similar problem with iWeb - my website has disappeared and been replaced with the old version that has been restored. But I can't find where the other has gone.
Please help!

Sounds like a damaged database file:
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums back.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
