Photos albums don't reveal photos on rollover like iPhoto?

I miss the way you could see a preview of the photos inside an album or folder by rolling over..
Any way to get the new Photos app to have the same rollover behavior as iPhoto?

The rollover only occurred in Events which have been replaced by Moments which do not have an mode where each Moment is represents by an single icon. So there's no place to have rollover.
Moments in Photo are the new Events. There's a way to simulate events in Photos.
When the library was first migrated there was a folder created titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events are represented by an album in the folder. To open the sidebar if it's not open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N. Name it as desired. It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window. In this case rollover of an album would be reasonable, but not in the sidebar where albums are too small for rollover.
The downside to the simulation is that the Album/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title. But they can be sorted manually. Ask Apple for more sorting options and rollover capability for folders in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

Photos in my iPad photo albums don't match photos in iPhoto

There were photos in my iPad and iPhone albuns that were not in those albums in iPhoto (and vice versa).
After lots of futile attempts to fix the issue (including rebuilding the photo librarary on my iMac,) I finally figured out how to do this . . .
NOTE: This worked perfecty for me. I hope it does for you.
You've got to remove your "iPod Photo cache." (Don't worry; a new one will be created next time you sync.
To do this . . .
1) Open Finder
2) Click on your User Name
3) Hold down the Option key while you click on "Pictures"
4) Find the folder named "iPod Photo Cache"
5) Move it to the Trash
6) Connect your iPad (and/or iPhone/iPod Touch) to iTunes
7) UNcheck sync "Photos" for all devices
8) Sync device(s)
9) Check "Sync Photos" for the device(s), indicating which albums you want to syb\nc from your iPhoto library TO those devices.
10) Sync your device(s)
The albums on your device(s) should now be in total synchronicity with the albums in iPhoto.
Good luck!

The only thing I can think of beyond what I originally posted is that you try rebuilding your iPhoto library by holding down the Command AND Option keys as you open iPhoto. When you see the dialog box, check all the boxes and continue.
The process may take a while, depending on how many photos you have in your library. (Example: 3,000 photos could take an hour or a little more).
Then . . . follow steps 6-10 from my original post.
Here they are again without the embarrassing typo . . .
6) Connect your iPad (and/or iPhone/iPod Touch) to iTunes
7) UNcheck sync "Photos" for all devices
8) Sync device(s)
9) Check "Sync Photos" for the device(s), indicating which albums you want to sync from your iPhoto library TO those devices.
10) Sync your device(s)
Hope you have luck!

Help with Publishing to a File - Photo Albums don't appear

I published to a file. I tested it and it looks good. I burned the folder to a CD in order to view it on another computer - specifically a PC. My webpages look right, but the photo albums don't appear. I can manually open the folders on the CD and verify that the photo jpg files are there. Any ideas? I am using iWeb 2.0.2.

Are you transferring the index.html file along with the website folder and double clicking the index file to launch the site in the PC browser?

Automatic creation of photo album and mixing of photos post sync

hey,
i am facing a very unexpected issue:
- once I start syncing my iphone 5 with my laptop the below issue arises
   ~ there are around 7000 photos under 21 folders and size of all album is around 6GB (only photos and I don't sync videos)
   ~ the itunes starts by syncing all the albums available by creating it on the iphone
   ~ however, the photos don't get get sync in one go (so it breaks the total photos packs as 4500-2000-500 to sync all 7000 photos and I need to sync it three times)
   ~ to reslove this issue, I have deleted all photos and again synced multiple times and changed the data cable already
   ~ it has twice happened that some of the album didn't show up and the photos didn't sync also
   ~ after using it for sometime, on the iPhone, there are recreation of albums first with the same name and photos from different albums get mixed and be a part under different albums (when I check on the iTunes - the size of the total album doesn't change though)
   ~ the original albums remain intact with the right photos initially but over a period of sometime, their photos also get jumbled up automarically and in the end I would get to see around 45-50 photo albums (with original album being duplicated twice or thrice and Atleast 2-3 times the number of original photos being jumbled up and lying in different album groups)
   ~ however there is no change in the size of the photos on iTunes and if I sync it further, more album duplication happens
i have deleted all photos from iPhone numerous time and re-synced it but it doesn't work
i have changed the data cable but it remains the same
i have deleted the full folder on my laptop with the ipod cache and re-sync it but still it doesn't work
My phone is always updated to the latedt software update (iOS 8.3 and whatever updates are there on iTunes or other applications)
this has started happening after iOS 8 update and specially with the introduction of 'recently deleted' folder on the photo app And the above picks great speed if I edit / delete photos from my camera
this could also be some bug or error and since there is no option to my best of understanding to delete and re-install the default photo app, I am finding hugely difficult to fix up the issue and seek advise
regards,
piyush

so total of my photos on iphoto are 1768, and i tried delete some of it, and when i sync back, i though oh maybe the space isnt enough ( worth to try though, cz i really dont know whats wrong) and instead of sync correctly, ITS NOT!!! its now sync only for 1683 photos, while on iphoto contains 1717 photos, and please i have 5,5 gb free space at the moment!
* i actually dont know how I gain so much free space after backup and restoring.

Photo pages don't show photos after iWeb upgrade

I loaded the upgrad yesterday for my 08 iWeb and now the photos that I published prior to upgrade don't show up on my site. Strangely, the Album page shows the photos in each album, but when I click into the photo page itself, no photos are visible and also the "index, play slideshow, subscribe" don't work either. Any new photo page I created after the upgrade looks fine. Everything looks clean in iWeb software itself. Photos don't show up on the site. What's up with this? Thanks for the answers.

Mine is doing the exact same thing - thought the update would solve the issue. The drop down menu says there are missing fonts, then it tells me to put the photos on the page again, which is ridiculous. iWeb '06 to '08 is the problem as anything added to it since upgrading to the latter works fine. Apple won't seem to acknowledge that they've introduced incompatible software, which is more like the doings of Microsoft.

Can I send a photo album rather tthan individual photos from my ipad

I have just got my ipad. (Novice!!!!) Love it . However rather than just sending 2-3 photos I wouls like to on occassions send photo albums to friends and family. Can I do this?

No, you can only email up to five photos at a time. Whether any of the photo haring websites such as Flickr etc have apps that allow you to upload albums or more photos at a time I don't know

How to transfer photo albums created on the iPad to Aperture or iPhoto?

Hi!
I have created a photo album on iOs 5 with selected pictures of the Photostream features, now I'd like to sync back this album to Aperture 3.2.2 or iPhoto on the Mac, so I can share them with Facebook or MobileMe.
Is there a way to do that?
Thanks

Thanks Fred, but the only photos that appear in Apertureare the ons of the iPad photo roll, not the Photo Albums created from the Photostream.
Hence, once pictures are in an album which was created directly on the iPad, I do not see any option to sync it back to Aperture or iPhoto. As the pictures are from Photostream, I do not see options in the photo album to save them back to the photo roll.
I created the album on the go, because, I was travelling without my computer and thought it would be great to make on the iPad the picture selections of the photos that I had put on my computer but did not have time to classify. I did the selection of photos, put them all in an album. There is no way to share back these 300 pics to Facebook or Mobileme or Flickr directly from the iPad, so I want to bring them back to my MAcbookPro to do it, but i can't find a way to transfer the album to the computer, and now, I have to do the selection again... Seems like Time wasted...

Photos showing up in Wallpaper Photo Album, but not Main Photo Album

I just switched to iPhone - love it. Just transferred all of my photos from my old device into my iPhone via iTunes. They show they are in the iPhone when I check the iTunes capacity at the bottom, and they all show up as options for my wallpaper in the wallpaper settings. However, when I just go to the Photos app on my main screen they aren't in the Photo Album there (not the camera roll either but I expected that).
Thoughts on this? Did I do something wrong in the transfer? None of the files are corrupt - I was able to open them all in the wallpaper area but they just aren't available in the normal photo album.
Thanks

How did you correct this issue? i am having the same issue!

"all photos" album not including all photos. Causing some photo not to be uploaded to iCloud Photo Library

After updating to iCloud photo library (iPhone 5, iOS 8.1), if I look at my "photos" tab I see over 700 photos, but in the 'all photos' album I only have 420. This results in only 420 of the photos uploaded to iCloud Photo library and not clearing much space off of my iPhone.

The FAVOURITES and PANOS albums also sort by date and time too. So all the albums sort by time and day except the ALL PHOTOS album! Seems very strange! What's even odder is that the date range listed at the top of the ALL PHOTOS album would suggest that they are sorted by date!
Apple I hope you SORT this out soon

TS2972 when viewing photo albums thru apple tv photos show in random order. How do I get to show in sequence ?

When viewing photo albums photos show in random. How do you get photos to show in sequecne?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Before going into any depth about this have you checked that you aren't simply using the shuffle option in the slideshow settings.

Old Mac Pro with 7.0 iPhoto transferred selected photo albums to my iPad. New iMac with iPhoto 11.0 will not transfer photo albums to my iPad. Why not?

I just purchased the new iMac with the latest iPhoto. Transferred my iPhoto library from my old Mac Pro. Upgraded iPhoto app and then tried to transfer photo albums to my iPad. New iPhoto will not allow transfer of selected albums, while old iPhoto did allow me to sync my selected albums to my iPad. Am I doing something wrong?

I do not have Last 12 Months selected. I also do not have Events or Faces or any of those newer designations selected. I have literally thousands of photographs in iPhoto, which is why I keep the select, special few hundred or so I want on my iPhone in very specific albums. These are the albums I select to sync. However, not all of the photos in these albums are uploading to my iPhone. They were on my iPhone and synced perfectly fine until the switch to the new laptop this weekend. All files were migrated to the new laptop, and all files are there and viewable on iPhoto. Something is causing some of the photos not to sync. That is what I need assistance with....

I click on a picture in my photo album and a different photo comes up how can I sort the problem out?

In my photo album when I click on a photo, a different photo comes up and not the one I click on, is their some way I can solve this problem and make the original photo come up instead of a different one?

Is this with iPhoto on your iPhone or iPhoto on your Mac?

Photo Album Does Not Contain Photo List After Transfer

I just recently re-installed Windows XP Pro on my Dell Latitude notebook. After installing Photoshop/Premiere Elements 8 and importing my photos and albums from Photoshop Elements 5.0 that my tags were still in place but not the "Album" information. My albums show up as empty. I thought about using "Smart Albums" to recreate the albums but realized that the IPTC Date/Time had changed to reflect the new import date. There is a "Date Created" that reflects the original date but the Adobe Organizer does not allow me to organize off of that field. Please help.... I have several albums. Thanks, John

All I could find is listed below. It doesn't say how you get the PSE 5 files
into PSE 8 in the first place.   Do I create a .psa file in PSE 5?   If so how
do I import in into PSE 8?
Thanks
Getting started with Adobe Photoshop Elements
Converting a catalog from a previous version
When you open Elements Organizer in Adobe Photoshop Elements 8, you could
experience difficulties opening a catalog you used in an earlier version of
Adobe Photoshop Elements. Convert the catalog to view the photos.
     1. Select File > Catalog.
     2. Click Convert in the Catalog Manager.
     3. In the Convert Catalog window, select the catalog you want to convert.
Note: Catalogs saved to a folder in a location other than the default location
do not appear in the Convert Catalog window automatically. Click Find More
Catalogs, and then select the folder where your catalog is located. Catalogs
located in that folder are added to the list of catalogs that can be converted.
     4. Click Convert.

Photos doesn't recognize my Pentax K3 automatically like iPhoto so I have no way to imprt my images. Just happened since installing Photos. Any ideas

Using Photo 1.0 which was just installed yesterday. Never had a problem with iPhoto for the last 9 years. Once I hook up the camera via USB, turn the camera on the icon for the SD card would appear and iPhoto would open and then give me the option of either importing all photos or selecting which ones.
Now the media card icon doesn't appear and if I try to use the menu bar to "import" it says it can't find the DCF. Therefore it isn't recognizing that I have a device hooked up.

Will image Capture (in your applications folder) import them? Can you see the camera in the finder? Have you tried a card reader?
Basically you need to get the photos off the memory card and once they are safely on your Mac and at lease one backup cycle has successfully completed use the camera's format command to ease and reformat the memory card

How do I delete downloaded photo albums from my iPhone 4 if I don't have the original computer?

My old computer crashed causing me to lose everything. I have a photo album on my iPhone that I would like to get rid of but i can't seem to figure out how to on my new computer. Is it possible to get rid of that album without factory resetting my phone and losing everything?

Try this (not 100% sure it will work, though.)
Transfer all your photos from the device to your computer:
Then, do an iCloud or iTunes backup.
Erase all content & settings.
Restore from the backup.
