Photo Stream, iPhoto and events

Photo stream is not creating new "events" when it downloads photos.  Instead, it has been putting new photos in an old event (same event every time). This started with the most recent iPhoto upgrade. Is there any way to fix this?

That's how it works. Otherwise you could have a thousand new Events every month.
You can move photos between Events, you can Merge Events, you can Rename them and sort them in various ways.

    How can I move a file from photo stream to an event in iPhoto?

    Select photo stream on the left panel in iPhoto, then drag and drop the photo from photo stream to Events on the top left under Library.  If you then want to move it to a specific event in your library, click on Events, locate the photo and drag and drop it on the event you want to add it to.

  • Can anyone help me. Every time I open iPhoto 9.2 and try to go to photo stream iPhoto quits unexpectedly.  When I reopen I get "iPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your library.  Please click Repair to avoid any potential problems."

    Can anyone help me.  I have iPhoto 9.2 and  Mac OS X 10.7.2.
    Every time I open iPhoto 9.2 and try to go to photo stream iPhoto quits unexpectedly.  When I reopen I get "iPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your library.  Please click Repair to avoid any potential problems."
    I have read plenty of the posts on the subject and it seems that deleting the "3ivx" fixed the problem.  I looked at the detaied reports and see where it says "
    Library/Application Support/3ivx" etc..
    On my report it says "/Library/Application Support/iLifeMediaBrowser/*/iLMBiPhoto8Plugin".  Does this help with an answer?

    I am also having this crashing problem. I am running lion on a 2010 mac mini. My iPhoto library is kept on an external drive. I just upgraded to iPhoto 11 and everytime I try to enable photo stream the app crashes. I have tried all the above suggestions, including re-installing iphoto from the Mac App store. Below are the first 50 lines of the error message. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • I just downloaded 950 photos on iPhoto and deleted them off my camera and now under last import there is only 4 photos and i can't find the others?? There is a whole bunch of blank events in the library with no photos in them all with todays date? Help!!

    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

  • When I recaption a photo in IPhoto and transfer to Photo Stream the caption is not transferred and only the original photo ID shows in Photo Stream.  Can you transfer a recaptioned description to Photo Stream?

    When I recaption a photo in IPhoto and then transfer to Photo Stream, the new caption is not transferred and the original Photo ID shows.  Is there any way to have the new caption show up in Photo Stream with a transferred photo?

    No.  Recaptioning only add a title to a photo and does not change the actual file name.  You could export the photo outside of iPhoto with the option to use the title as the new file name, reimport into iPhoto and then add to PhotoStream. But that may be more of a hassle than you wnat to go thru.

  • HT4906 how to import photos from photo stream into an event?

    How to import photos from photo stream into an event?

    How to import photos from photo stream into an event?
    In iPhoto 9.4.3 the following works:
    If you have not auto imported the photos from the Photo Stream, as Larry suugests, select the photos that you want to import in the Photo Stream, and drag them to the "Events" view in the Source List. They will be imported as new events, auto split with respect to your preferences.

  • I've got duplicates of photos in "Photos", Photo stream, Iphoto etc. what is going on?

    I've go duplicates of photos on my devices in "Photos" and iPhoto that include icloud, Photo stream, camera roll, events, etc. etc. how do I manage theese duplicate files of photos?

    Welcome to the Apple Community bissellfl.
    If you mean the same photos appear in all these places, then that's what is supposed to happen. If you mean you have more than one of each photo in each album, then you' em possibly added them manually and had them add automatically. You'll need to remove them manually.

    I have photo stream on and took photos recently and cant find them on my computer. I tried restarting the computer but still nothing. How do I get them on photo stream?

    Try the following on your MBP:
    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

    How can I print multiple copies of the same photo onto one sheet of paper?  Do I have to Duplicate the photo in iPhoto and then select them all?

    no - you simply have to select the option to print mucliples of a photo on a page
    select the photo and go to the file menu ==> print - select the printer, paper size and print size and click customize - in the tool bar click on the settings icon (the gear looking thingy) and select "multiple of the same photo per page" and the preview will reflect this option showing a full page of the selected size photos

    mlvov,
    I did as you said and went to the icloud control panel on my Windows 8 Laptop to be sure I was looking at the correct folder for my photo stream.  All my "shared" albulms pushed to my Laptop and are up-to-date with the exception of the "photostream" album. If I create a "shared stream album" and place photo's in it on the phone; I can see the photos on my laptop. I dont get it. I had a iphone 4s and had zero isues and now with my new nifty iPhone 5s it doesent work.
    What am I not doing correctly.
    Thanks,
    iPhone, 5s, iOS 7.0.2
