Organizing photos in aperture 4 vs iPhoto 09
Ok editing and all aside, for the sake of organizing is aperture better than iPhoto 09? I know it is expensive and iPhoto is free but I'd just like to know if it organizes or has more options for organizing than iPhoto, is the interface better? Thanks guys.
for the sake of organizing is aperture better than iPhoto 09?
Organising where? In the Application or in the Finder?
Averaged out of the cost of iLIfe, iPhoto is a $16 app. Aperture is somewhat more expensive. Of course it has extra options in just about every area of the workflow.
So what's "better"? Do you need the extra features?
One way to look at it:
Are you a home photographer? Shoot the kids birthday party holidays and vacations? shooting jpegs on a point and shoot or a DSLR on Auto setting? iPhoto is probably what you're looking for.
A pro? A serious hobbyist? Shooting Raw or high volumes of jpeg? Sounds more like someone who'll get value from Aperture to me.
But the best thing: download the trial and see.

Problem Importing Photos from Aperture 3 into iPhoto '11
I store my photos in Aperture 3, but import them into iPhoto to create calendars, cards, etc. I usually work with RAW or high resolution JPG images in Aperture. However, when I import these into the new iPhoto '11, it automatically converts my RAW images into very low resolution images (e.g., 100-200k instead of at least 1-2MB). I cannot seem to find an option to change this. This was not a problem with the old iPhoto. To import, I start in iPhoto, then click "Show Aperture Library", then drag my photos/folder. I would like to have an option to import images as RAW files, or just high res JPGs.
I know I can export my Aperture images to the desktop, then import them into iPhoto for a temporary fix, but that is such as hassle, especially since iPhoto and Aperture are supposed to work well together. Thanks for any suggestions!Aperture creates preview images that contain all the adjustments you've made to the master image. These previews are what is shared with other apps such as iLife or if you drag and drop an image out of Aperture to another app or the Finder.
The size of the previews is controlled in Aperture Preferences. Open Aperture Preferences and click on the Previews icon at the top. In the bottom of this dialog there is a popup menu titled "Photo Preview". This is the setting that controls the size of the image Aperture shares with iPhoto. Change this setting to the size you want.
But wait, you're not done yet. Changing this setting does nothing until a new preview is created in Aperture. If you right click an image in Aperture there is a menu item near the bottom named "Update Preview". But what you really need is "Generate Preview". Right click the image and then hold down the option key and you'll see "Update Preview" change to "Generate Preview". Choose "Generate Preview" and a new preview will be created using the new size setting you made in Preferences. You need to do this for each and every image you wish to share at the larger size. You can select multiple images before selecting the "Generate Preview" command to speed things up.
Now when you share an image from Aperture to iPhoto the new larger file will be used. The advantage of smaller previews is your Aperture library will also be smaller but the trade off is what you get in other apps that are using your images. -
Organizing Photos in Aperture 3
Hello All,
I recently purchased Aperature 3 to upgrade from iPhoto. I am trying to figure out the best location to keep my files and how to organize them. I am running out of hard drive space and have purchased another hard drive that I will install that will be a secondary storage location. I am thinking about keeping my photos on that hard drive instead of having Aperature manage the photos. Will there be any consquences for keeping on a different hard drive and not managed in the Aperature Library? I hvae tryied this and find it a pain that the files on my computer don't delete when I delete them from Aperture. I didn't like keeping the files managed in Aperature because it was a pain to upload to third party photo websites like Shutterfly. I would have to export the files that I want to upload to a new folder and then upload them. Where instead, I could just keep everything in my Pictures folder. Thoughts? Thanks.
-gigascottYou need to stop for a minute and take a breath before you go any further.
Having your master images on an external drive that are referenced in Aperture is fine. Many users do it that way. To delete the referenced master from your HD if you delete it in Aperture you will need to check the box in the delete confirmation from Aperture
Move Referenced file to System Trash
But this will not make it any easier to upload to web sites or eliminate having to export because these images are the master files and will not have any of the adjustments you make to them in Aperture.
As I said at the beginning of this, you need to take some time to become familiar with Aperture and the library. The user manual is a good place to start especially the first sections that deal with all the bits that make up Aperture and how they fit together.
good luck -
ITunes syncing lower-res versions of photos from Aperture library VS iphoto?
Today I changed my iPad's photo syncing prefs so that it would sync photos from my Aperture library as opposed to iPhoto. To my dismay I've discovered that it appears to be syncing REALLY low-resolution versions of the images compared to what it was syncing in iPhoto. Most of my shots are 21MP, and I understand that when they are synced to an iOS device, they're resized/compressed, but when I was syncing from iPhoto, I was typically able to zoom in to 2x zoom and things would still look good, whereas now that I'm syncing with Aperture, the exact same images appear to have been synced at a lower resolution than the iPad's screen!
This is NOT an issue with offline images or missing masters either.
What gives? This seems to be incredibly backwards as I imagine the majority of Aperture users would want larger versions synced, and iPhoto users wouldn't care as much. How do I resolve this? Can I?Aha. Well I guess that solves it -- I do have my preview settings super low-res.
That's a really strange/questionable design decision. This means I'm actually better off using iPhoto or manually syncing with folders (I have good reasons for using low-res previews).
Thanks! -
Import legacy photos into Aperture 3 from iPhoto?
By way of background I have a 20” iMac bought January 2007 which I soon plan to replace with a new 27” iMac. I expect to purchase Aperture 3 with the new iMac and to commence using it to edit my photographic images. With my present iMac I use iPhoto for storing many thousands of digital images. My iPhoto Library is divided into many sub-libraries which I manage using iPhoto Library Manager. I currently use Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac for editing my images.
My question concerns what I should do with my present images when I obtain the new iMac. My understanding is that I can either leave them as is within iPhoto or import them into Aperture 3. I don’t have enough information to know which would be the best way to go. My initial reaction is to leave them as is because I don’t know whether the iPhoto Library Manager system is compatible with the Aperture 3 system. I would not want to import thousands of my current images into Aperture 3 and end up with a disorganized mess on my hands.
I’m hoping that somebody with applicable experience with Aperture 3 can advise me on his issue.
BobThere's no such thing as an "iPhoto Library Manager system". They are just iPhoto Libraries and can be imported to Aperture. As to whether you should or should not? That's up to you. I strongly urge you to download the trial of Aperture from the Apple site and explore before making any decisions. There's a significant learning curve coming over from iPhoto.

Trouble organizing photos when they download in iphoto
I want to control the picture organization when I download from my camera so that different events don't group into one topic. and now I have tons of photos that are not easy to group. i feel like every time I move them I wind up with a duplicate copy. my hard drive is bursting.
I am not sure how to rename the actual pictures and sort them they way I want them sorted.
You can add Titles to Pics using the Info Pane (Click on the ‘i’ lower left. The Name, Date and Description fields can be edited). To change the title of groups of pics use the Photos -> Batch Change command.
So, how do you want them sorted?
The most basic way is to create an Album (File -> New Album) and drag the pics to it. You can put Albums into Folders (File -> New Folder). So, you can have a Folder called, say, ‘Travel’ and within it Albums for your Trip to Paris and your Trip to Rome.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 20k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
Keywording takes time to set up, there's no doubt about it. I use Keyword Manager as it's much more powerful than the inbuilt system, and adds the possibility of nested keywords. So, for instance, if I add John to a photo it also adds 'Family'. Now I can add many keywords to a pic quickly.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.
but iphoto does not allow me to be selective on what photos come in. its all or none and all named to the same description.
When iPhoto sees a card it shows you the contents of the card. Select the pics you want to import (Click on them, Command-click for multiple) add your description and Click on Import Selected.

Organizing photos in Aperture?????
I am trying to organize the projects and albums that are located on the left hand side of the screen when using Aperture. You can arrange the projects and albums by name, manual, or kind when you use the preferences drop down menu located below the adjustments tab. My problem is that I have so many projects and albums listed on the left side of the screen that it is difficult to scroll up and down through 100 different projects. Is there any way to arrange the list by date??? please help.....I know how to arrange the projects in the main area of the screen, but when I move pictures between projects on the list, they are not in order and that is when the scrolling is an issue.
Frank has told you the options Aperture gives you -- it is up to you to use them.
In general, you shouldn't be moving Images from Project to Project often. (I never do.) I suspect that you'd be much better served using Albums for some of what you seem to be using Projects. That broadens the topic of your post a bit -- but, for example, you could group your Albums in a Folder, and drag and drop Images into the Albums. Like Finder (and elsewhere), Folders in Aperture are spring-loaded. This allows you to keep most of your Folders closed, and open them as needed by hovering the mouse cursor during a drag-and-drop operation.
Another hint is to use Flags and the Flagged container at the top of the inspector. Flag the Images you want to move (they can come from several sources), then arrange the Library tab of the Inspector so you can see your destination, then click on "Flagged", click in the Browser, "Select All", and drag-and-drop into the destination container.
(Added)
If you don't already have a destination container, you can always use "File→New→Album" and check the box "Include Selected Items".

How Is Aperture Better Then iPhoto At Organizing Photos?
I was just wondering what sets Aperture apart from iPhoto when it comes to organizing my photos?
I just purchased Aperture for this reason and was just wanting to know some of the key features for organizing in Aperture.
Thanks,
Sam
Please feel free to tell me anything you know about Aperture because I would love to know!Asset management tools the key is to keep your images organised as your library of photos grows and grows. And Aperture is much more of a king than iPhoto in this regard.
In iphoto for example the search facility is fairly simple to use and yes you can use keywords to find an image, however as you library grows and your workflow becomes much more sophisticated, and it will, when you work as a photographer, you will want to have a much more powerful search facility such as to able to go into Aperture and search for images using more criteria. In smart albums in iPhoto there is a list of words of metadata fields to use for searching for images, but in aperture there is literally dozens of metadata fields you can choose from to powerfully find any image efficiently and quickly. And in Aperture it records every little detail of your cameras data that you can use in your search facility.
There is a few ways how to efficiently organize your images in Aperture what I have mentioned just above is really just a tip of the iceberg. -
How do I move organized photos from dropbox to iPhoto and share with another user on the same mac?
I have about 3,500 photos sitting in dropbox and just purchased my first mac yesterday. My husband and I each have our own Ipad and our own user id's on the mac. I moved two of the folders to Iphoto and it shows up on my screen in the right folders. However, on my Ipad, it shows all of them under one Photostream and not organized. They don't show up on my husband's "side of the computer" at all.
So my questions are:
1. How does one mirror their file organization on the Ipad?
2. How does one share all of the folders with another user on the same Ipad so they can view folders, and add pictures to the folders if they like?
Thanks!1. How does one mirror their file organization on the Ipad?
If you use the Photo Stream, the organisation in iPhoto will be lost - there is just one endless stream. YOu could sync your photos using iTunes. Then you will see the synced albums in the Photos.app on the iPad.
See this link: iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
How does one share all of the folders with another user on the same Ipad so they can view folders, and add pictures to the folders if they like?
On the same iPad? Do you mean on the same mac?
If you want to share an iPhoto library between two users on the same mac, the iPhoto library should be on a separate disk partition or even better, on a separate external disk. Then you can set the flag "Ignore ownership on this volume" to avoid permission problems. Both of you will be able to browse the iPhoto library and can edit the photos within.
See this support document: iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
If both of you want to keep separate iPhoto libraries but share the photos, you could share selected albums as Shared PhotoStreams and invite each other to browse them. This would require iOS 7. Do you have iOS 7 on your iPad? Each Shared Photo Stream will be shown as a separate album on your iPad .

I had photos from MobileMe organized into different events. When iPhoto made a MobileMe event (when MobileMe ended), it took all of those photos out of the other events and put them all together in the new "from MobileMe" event. Is there any way to reverse this?

How do I transfer photos from aperture and iPhoto to bridge?
How do I transfer photos from Aperture and iPhoto to Adobe Bridge. I am using Photoshop CS6. Many of my original photos were stored as raw files.
Here's how to access Mac iPhoto images for use in Photoshop
and so that they may be viewed by choosing that folder in Bridge..
1. In the Finder, navigate to Users > [user name} > Pictures > iPhoto Library.
2. Control-click (Right-click) the iPhoto Library file and choose Show Package Contents.
3. A Finder window opens that shows the contents. The Masters folder (or called Originals folder) contains all of the photographs that are in iPhoto.
Photoshop cannot access this folder, but if you make a duplicate of the folder, the dupe will be accessible -- so:
4. Control-click (Right-click) the folder named Masters (or Originals) and choose Duplicate.
5, Drag the duplicate folder which is named "Masters copy" or “Originals copy” from the iPhoto Library Finder window to the Desktop.
6. Open images in Photoshop from file on desktop or view them in Bridge.
7 Rename the folder and move it elsewhere (probably to the Pictures folder), if desired.
And here is a Forum thread related to Aperture-to-Bridge

Newbie Question: Importing (from PC) and Organizing Photos in iPhoto
Hi everyone,
I am currently a PC user and am contemplating buying an iMac, and I'm trying to determine if iPhoto will meet my needs for photo importing and organization.
I currently have around 20-30 gigs of digital photos and am using Windows Photo Gallery (for Windows Vista) to view/organize/import them.
The directories are organized by the photo date taken in the format "yyyy-mm-dd" .
Some of these directories are appended with an event name if applicable, i.e. "2011-12-25_Christmas Party" while others will only have the date, i.e. "2011-12-20"
My photos are named according to date/time taken so that a file listing will display the photos in chronologic order. Again, some of these will be appended with an event name or other descriptive label. So, many photos will look like this: "yyyy-mm-dd_hh-mm-ss" while others will look like this: "yyyy-mm-dd_hh-mm-ss_event name"
A possible complicating factor in all of this is that some of the photos were taken with a camera where the time/date was not set properly, or with cameras whose date/times were set for a different time zone. I adjusted this within Windows Photo Gallery, but I am not sure if it permanently changed the date/time in the photo file's properties... I've seen some evidence that it may not have. I did make sure that the file name was named according to the correct date/time in every case, however.
Now, here are my questions about using iPhoto:
1) When I initially import my photos into iPhoto, will iPhoto recognize (or is there a way to make it recognize) each separate directory as a separate event based on the directory in which it is found?
2) If I copy photos into iPhoto library, will it respect and preserve my directory structure wherein photos are separated by date taken? If not, then is it practical to still use iPhoto without copying the files into its library (by keeping them organized as subdirectories in a directory elsewhere and having iPhoto setup to automatically display photos in that directory)?
3) If I use iPhoto to import pictures from a digital camera, can I control how it sorts those pictures into directories by making it name the directories in yyyy-mm-dd format? This is what Windows does and I find that format very convenient for organizing and viewing photo files, especially those that I have not yet tagged.
4) Again, if I use iPhoto to import pictures from a digital camera, can I control the naming convention so that photos are named according to date&time taken (i.e. yyyy-mm-dd_hh-mm-ss ), or at least according to just date taken (i.e. yyyy-mm-dd) as well as appended with event names?
5) Will I be able to edit photo properties, such as date taken, within iPhoto if I discover that a photo is incorrectly organized?
Thanks in advance,
JBHere's the thing: You've put a lot of time developing a system of managing files. iPhoto is all about Photos. So, frankly. forget your current system and use iPhoto. it has more powerful and more varied tools for managing your snaps.
There's a conceptual leap to be made with apps like iPhoto. The illustration I use is as follows: In my iTunes Library I have a file called 'Let_it_Be_The_Beatles.mp3'. So what is that, exactly? It's not the song. The Beatles never wrote an mp3. They wrote a tune and lyrics. They recorded it and a copy of that recording is stored in the mp3 file. So the file is just a container for the recording. That container is designed in a specific way attuned to the characteristics and requirements of the data. Hence, mp3.
Similarly, that Jpeg is not your photo, it's a container designed to hold that kind of data. iPhoto is all about the data and not about the container. So, regardless of where you choose to store the file, iPhoto will manage the photo, edit the photo, add metadata to the Photo but never touch the file. If you choose to export - unless you specifically choose to export the original - iPhoto will export the Photo into a new container - a new file containing the photo.
All of your queries are about files and filenames and file storage. They're all pretty much moot if you use iPhoto. If you use iPhoto it becomes the "go-to" app for all your photos. Everything you need to do with the photos can be done via iPhoto or with iPhoto.
When I initially import my photos into iPhoto, will iPhoto recognize (or is there a way to make it recognize) each separate directory as a separate event based on the directory in which it is found?
Yes, but... Events are organisation for those who can't really be bothered. They are automatic - based entirely on Date and Time the camera records the photos as taken. You can move photos between Events, you can Merge Events, you can Rename them and sort them in various ways except one: You cannot manually sort in an Event as Events are all automated.
Albums are a much more varied and powerful organising tool.
2) If I copy photos into iPhoto library, will it respect and preserve my directory structure wherein photos are separated by date taken?
Well forget about "directories", you're talking Events, Album and Folders now. But yes, you can define Events (or Albums) based on date. However, given that iPhoto can sort on date, can search on date and date ranges and can generate Smart Albums based on date (say, All the Photos from 2010, only the photos from June 2010 or just the photos fron June 10, 2010, or even the photos from May 12 2009 to July 11 2010) how the fies are organised on the disk is of little concern. You never access them via the HD anyway.
If not, then is it practical to still use iPhoto without copying the files into its library (by keeping them organized as subdirectories in a directory elsewhere and having iPhoto setup to automatically display photos in that directory)?
Yes you can do this. It's called a Referenced Library. I don't recommend it - especially for a new Mac user - and it adds nothing except complexity to the process. It has no extra capability. It's just dumb file storage. For more on this:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3062728?tstart=0
3) If I use iPhoto to import pictures from a digital camera, can I control how it sorts those pictures into directories by making it name the directories in yyyy-mm-dd format?
No.
This is what Windows does and I find that format very convenient for organizing and viewing photo files, especially those that I have not yet tagged.
There are various tools in iPhoto that will allow you to find photos that you have not yet tagged or organised.
Again, if I use iPhoto to import pictures from a digital camera, can I control the naming convention so that photos are named according to date&time taken (i.e. yyyy-mm-dd_hh-mm-ss ), or at least according to just date taken (i.e. yyyy-mm-dd) as well as appended with event names?
You can add titles to photos, yes. But as the date and time of the photo are already in the Exif, using those in the name of the photo is a bit redundant.
Will I be able to edit photo properties, such as date taken, within iPhoto if I discover that a photo is incorrectly organized?
Yes.
It's a bit to take in I know, and I always suggest to people that the best thing is to create a library on their Mac, import a couple of hndred pics and explore what it does (and doesn't), and see if it works for you.
iPhoto uses a lot of virtualisation. Photos are stored in the Library. (Events are just one of two possible views of the Library). Albums reference photos in the Library. So a shot can be in any number of albums and use no extra disk space. Keywording is also very powerful. Here’s a stock answer I use for folks when wondering what iPhoto can do:
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 40k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.
Finally, all of this can be exported from iPhoto should you decide to migrate to a different app or different OS in a year or two.

Dark photos from Aperture, iPhoto or Drag and drop
All imported photos (from aperture, iphoto or drag&droped) whitin a project are very dark in the viewer, and in the final video (itunes, export with several options...). The histogram levels of the image are low. The preview image in the project looks fine.
I tried repair permissions with disk Utility, system clean with Onyx... the problem remains.
ThanksI'm having the same problem, but only after I installed the iMovie 9.0.1 update. Before then my still images looked fine when imported.
But now, my pictures are coming up so dark as to be unusable. I was forced to export them as slideshow movies from iPhoto and import them as clips to iMovie last time I tried to use still images. -
Organizing photos between devices in iPhoto
Hi guys,
I am greatly confused and really hope you can help me out! I have searched for hours now and I am still not sure of the answer, so even though it might be answered in other threads I still hope you will help me...
I have and iPhone and a Macbook. Between these two devices I want to share and organize my photos taken with the iPhone. First of all the photos are obviously saved in the camera roll - and since I have enabled photoStream they are saved here as well.
For a while ago I read that to organize the photos I should syncronize with iPhoto, organize into albums and syncronize back to the phone. That kinda works, however now the photos are takin up space 3 times! That is very confusing and a waste of space!
What I really want is actually to have the photos in the camera roll until I have organized them into albums and then I want to be able to delete them from the camera roll. That way I ensure that I have organized all photos.
I really appreciate any tips as this is really frustrating...And what is the difference between events and albums in iPhoto? I get that one solution is to import all photos to iPhoto and then organize the photos into albums. However they still apear in events - and with all these events ordered by dates how will I ever ensure that I have organized all images into albums?
iPhoto does not store photos. It only references photos in your camera roll, in events synced to your iDevice from your Mac, uploaded using the camera connection kit, or imported by other apps.
See the iPhoto Help: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnkbc26e276
iPhoto will not use additional space, if a photo is used in an album and also appears in an event or the camera roll.
What I really want is actually to have the photos in the camera roll until I have organized them into albums and then I want to be able to delete them from the camera roll. That way I ensure that I have organized all photos.
What kind of albums are you asking about? The albums that iPhoto creates by tagging, or the abums you create in the Camera Roll? Either way, these albums do not store the photos, they only group them differently for easy access. When you delete the photos from your camera roll, the photos will vanish from the albums as well, because they are one and the same image.
Anyway, it is no good idea to delete the photos from the Camera Roll. The Camera Roll is the central sharing place of your iPhone. Other apps can access your photos in the Camara Roll, the Camera Roll can be downloaded to your computer, the Camera Roll is backed up in your iCloud backup.
Should I rather organize only in events and not use albums?
Use the camera roll and events to store all your photos, and use albums to create selections for special purposes to easily access them and retrieve them.
First of all the photos are obviously saved in the camera roll - and since I have enabled photoStream they are saved here as well.
The camera roll stores the photos, but the Photo Stream is just a temporary buffer to share the photos. Don't rely on Photo Stream to keep the photos for ever. It will only keep the most recently added photos and no more than a thousand photos on your iPhone.
For a while ago I read that to organize the photos I should syncronize with iPhoto, organize into albums and syncronize back to the phone. That kinda works, however now the photos are takin up space 3 times! That is very confusing and a waste of space!
The general idea of that advice is to keep the photos off your phone:
Organize them on your mac, store all photos on your mac, and back them up regularly, so that you have them safe.
Then delete the photos from your phone to free space.
Now create albums on your mac with your most important photos that you want to have on your iPhone as well and regularly sync your current selection of favorite photos to your iPhone.
What may be confusing for you, is that you are trying to achieve something, that the two versions o iPhoto on your mac and your iPhone are not intended for and do not support well - two keep two photolibraries in sync. The apps support sharing of selected photos, but not syncing libraries. So have one well organized library on your mac, and share to your iPhone what you want on the phone as well, for example by setting up shared photostreams or syncing with iTunes.

Videos on iPhoto no longer play. All was fine as I was organizing photos, but suddenly no more videos would play. What has happened?
Something went wrong. Now for a useful answer...
Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.
