Photos from book pages
i just started playing around with the book part of Lightroom. I Don't need to publish a book, but I would love to composite my images land save it as a photo I can use on my blog. Is that possible?
Yes it is possible. You first have to choose from the drop down menu under the top Book Settings tab. Click the drop-down menu to the right of Book: and you should see three choices (Blurb, PDF or jpeg). Choose jpeg. You can set quality, sRGB profile and resolution. The default for printing books is normally between 240 and 300ppi but you could lower it to 72 or 96 to get more efficient files for uploading to a blog. When you have completed your page layouts simply click the button at the bottom of the right-hand panels “Export Book to Jpeg” and save to a folder.

What can i do?
HI,
Did you ever figure out how to get them back? The same thing happened to me yesterday. I was able to open the file in VLC media player (you can download this app), but the file had been corrupted. It was only the last clip I had recorded, all the others were lost. Even the clip that will play is messed up -
Link posted on Facebook does not import Photo from the site
When I paste a link to a status line on Facebook, it imports the title and annotation of the page correctly. However, the Facebook does not show any photo from the page (as it does with other websites).
Is there a way to force Facebook to show a photo alongside the title etc?
I am trying to post for instance this: http://www.cykasy.cz/Atlas/Cycas_xipholepis.html
and would like to show some of the pictures on Facebook too.It seems that the only solution is to write a piece of code into the header of the page and that will tell facebook where to pull the title, description and the photo from. The code that needs to be inserted is below.
THE PROBLEM - this solution doesn't work if you have built your site using iweb. Everyone that has iweb has responded to the solution (everywhere this is written about) has said this.
Does anyone know another work around?
The solution for anyone without iweb:
<meta name="title" content="INSERT CONTENT HERE" />
<meta name="description" content="INSERT CONTENT HERE" />
<link rel="image_src" href="INSERT LOCATION OF PHOTO WEB ADDRESS HERE" /> -
How to copy and paste text from one photo book page to another.
hello,i downloaded this software 2days ago,and i've been having so much fun with it. pls i need help on how to copy and paste text from one photo book page to another. Secondly how to copy my completed photo book pages project to another laptop for printing. thanks
This question was solved.
View Solution.Hi DG.
The easiest way to copy an HP Photo Creations project to another computer is to click the Share button. That will upload the project to the Web and give you a link you can paste into an email. Clicking the link on the other computer allows you to download the project and personalize it. This quick video shows the process. (The screen looks slightly different now, but the concept is the same.)
Another way to share a project is copy the project folder to a thumb drive. Look in Documents/HP Photo Creations/My Things to find your saved projects.
Our customer support team would be happy to walk you through the process. Contact them at [email protected]
Hope this helps,

I want to import photos from iphoto to my ipad. The help button said to press the photo button under the device list. There isn't a photo button shown. Could it be hidden?
If you connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, on the right-hand side of iTunes (not on the left) there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders or albums/events to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.

How do i remove my photo from my Address Book entry?
two questions: first, how do i remove my photo from my entry in Address Book? i should be able to click "Edit", select my photo and hit the Delete key and be done, but no - hitting the Delete key does nothing except make the photo blink.
second, i just posted a comment on a web page that i've never been to before, on a site that i've never been to before, and my photo appeared on the web page next to my comment. very creepy. anybody know why this is and how i make it stop? does it have something to do with my Address Book entry?
update: i've consulted Address Book's help and it tells me to select the card then go Card -> Clear custom image, but when i do, that menu item is grayed out.
further update: i've worked around the problem by taking a screen shot of a blank white area of a webpage and making that my photo...but i shouldn't have to do that and would still like to know how one actually deletes one's photo from Address Book. Address Book's help indicates that i'll find such photos in Library/Images/People, but there's no such directory in any of my Library folders. Address Book's help is not being very helpful today.
tia...there is actually no way to completely delete an image for you address book entry. you can only change it to something else as you did.
as for the image on that website, most likely it pulled your photo from your webpage on some site like My Space, Facebook etc. do you have a page like that? some sites will tap directly into your webpage and pull your pic from it. -
How do I add photos from another collection to my saved Book?
Hi,
In my lightroom library I have created a collection set called "Wedding". As I have 1000 photos from my wedding, within this Collection Set I have created 10 or more Collections to organise these photos (Ceremony, Reception, First Dance, etc.).
I have created a new 'Book' which as expected, has created a new Collection within my 'Wedding' collection set.
When I first create the book (before saving it) it seems like I can click on a page, then browse my Collections and add the photo that I desire to the page.
After I have saved the book, I can't so this. I want to work on my book later, and use my existing organisation of photos, and add photos to my books from these collections.
I know I am missing something basic (I am new to lightroom). I don't understand why I can't add a photo to my book after I have saved it.
Each time I click on one of my other collections, a new unsaved book appears in the main project window.
I have worked out that if I copy all my wedding photos into the new "Book" collection, then my photos are available for use - but this defeats the purpose of organising my photos into separate collections, and it doesn't seem like you can create a sub-collection within the Book project.
I also can't seem to find any documentation to explain this properly.
Any help would be apreciated - or if I coud be pointed to a good resource.
Cheers,
Mandy.Thanks for the response.
I saw these discussions previously, but not of them seem to answer my question (nor confirm that what I am trying to do cannot be done).
If I want to create a "Wedding Album" book, do I have to firstly use the Library module to drag ALL the photos I may want to use into my "Wedding Album" collection (saved book) ?
This seems annoying as I have already categorisied my 1000+ wedding photos into separate Collections using the Library (so that I can find the one I want easier).
It seems as though the Book module would function much better if you could create a book, choose a page that you want to add a photo to, then browse through your pre-configured collection sets & collections, and add photos to the book from the navigation panel on the left when you have the "Book" module open. (Rather than having to copy the photo first into the "Book" 's Collection, then adding it to the page that you want)

Photos don't display on book pages after upgrading to 9.4.2
I have several books I created in version 9.4.1. After upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, most of the pictures will not display on the book pages. Only 1 photo displays out of 3 or 4 photos on the page. Is there a setting that has changed? Using Mountain Lion 10.8.2 on MacBookPro10,1
Did you duplicate the existing book or create a new empty book and add the same photos?
Have you tried rebuilding your library as follows: make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory. -
Since I believe you can't create a Photo Album (Book) in Apperature, what is the best way to transfer my pictures from my Apperature Library to iPhoto (in order to create my book) without loosing any picture quality ?
Since I believe you can't create a Photo Album (Book) in Apperature, what is the best way to transfer my pictures from my Apperature Library to iPhoto (in order to create my book) without loosing any picture quality ?
Why do you think that? You can create printed Books in Aperture with similar themes as in iPhoto, and with more options to create custom themes on your own.
See this page - http://www.apple.com/aperture/what-is.html - scroll down to see the example books.
But if you prefer the iPhoto themes and layout, you can open your Aperture library in iPhoto, if you have both the current version of iPhoto and Aperture. Simply use the command "File > Open Library in iPhoto" and you can create your book in iPhoto.
And switch back to Aperture by using the command "File > Open Library in Aperture".

Trying to make a photobook but can't get pages to open by double clicking. Photos from Iphoto 9.6. Help anybody?
What do you mean? Are you not able to switch from "All pages" view of the book to a single page view by double-clicking a selected page? Or what is the problem?
Or can you not open the book at all from the source list? -
Iphoto book page layout changes with the addition of a photo problem.
I'm making a photo book of a recent road trip. There are times when I select a page,,, perhaps a page with 6 photos. The layout appears as the grey squares with a large vertical one on the left, 4 small ones in the upper right and a larger square in the bottom left (in the 'picture book theme).,,,,,, a really nice 6 photo page. I get 4 photos in on the page and when I add the 5th photo the page flips and puts the large photo on the right side while at the same time changes the photo with one of the smaller ones.
Is this a software bug? It doesn't do it on all the pages only at times.
It's driving me a bit nutz. Is there something i'm missing?
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.9)
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.9)As a first step I save the “wrong page” as a PDF from the print dialogue. That gives me a template for positioning guide lines in Photoshop that match the sizes and margins in the book layout.
Then I open that PDF in PS. You will be prompted for a resolution and colour mode, use 300 pixels per inch and RGB mode. (If you've ended up with a multi-page PDF in the first step, PS allows you to select a specific page to open.)
When PS has rasterised the page, press Apple + R and position your guide lines by pulling them out from the page rulers – you might want to increase the magnification to 200%. Align the guide lines with the edges of your images.
Now you can delete the dummy layout image and fill the canvas with white. (At this point you might want to save the image as a template for future use.)
One by one you can now precisely place your images and crop them along the guide lines – Snap to Guides needs to be enabled for that. Once you’re satisfied, flatten the image and make sure it’s in the sRGB colour space. If not, go to Image > Adjust > Convert to Profile... to change it.
I save mine as JPEGs at maximum quality, but for instance Tiff would work fine, too. -
I am trying to download photos from my camera to iphoto on my mac book (which I have done many times before). This time I am getting an alert that saysThe photo “IMG_5965.JPG” could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found. How can I fix this?
There is a fair likelihood of an explanation of this symptom
in another ASC discussion thread; see the reply by léonie:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20165563#20165563
You may have to research any newer possibilities in trouble-
shooting or resolving issues by use of iPhoto Support page.
Since I don't use iPhoto as a primary editor or storage, the
details on the topic aren't so good. I prefer ToyViewer editor.

Hopefully the error is easily corrected.
Good luck & happy computing! -
Import Photos from IPhoto into 3rd party Photo Book Maker?
Using BookSmart from Blurb, to make a photo book, this a GREAT piece of software BTW, I need to import photos from IPhoto and can't seem to see how do it? Not sure I even can. Any help??
Assuming the program has an Import option that brings up an Open/Save/Attach file browser window, look in the left hand sidebar for Photos, under the Media heading at the bottom. It will show you your iPhoto library. Probably easiest if you first create an album in iPhoto for the photos you think you are likely to use.
Alternatively, browse the Blurb site for an FAQ and find:
http://blurb.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/blurb.cfg/php/enduser/stdadp.php?p_faqid=74&p_sid=44cbAnHj&purl=
How do I use iPhoto pictures with BookSmart?
To view JPGs and PNGs that are stored in iPhoto, click the My iPhoto Images bar in the left content column of BookSmart. Choose which album you’d like to view via the dropdown menu, and then drag and drop the images into your book. BookSmart will only make copies of images you actually drag (or autoflow) to pages of your book. -
I am making a book using Aperture. During the production process, when I want to replace a picture, or move it to another location in the book, as I click and move it out of the book, it "disappears". (In I Photo 11 it returned to my list of available pictures).
Where are these pictures? How can I retrieve them?Hello,
how do you "click and move the image out of the book"?
If I have added an image to a book page and want it removed and maybe added to a different page, then I ctrl-click the image on the book page and select "cut content", delete or "copy content" (or I select it and press the delete key). Then the image will reappear in the film strip below the book pages and I can drag it to a different page (or I can paste it directy onto a different page if I selectes "copy..".
If I on the other hand deleted an image from the film strip below the book, then the image will be gone from the book completely. How is this different for you?

How do you resize photos on a page of a book created in iPhoto '09?
How do you resize photos on a page of a book created in iPhoto '09? I can zoom in or out, but I can't figure out how to make a photo smaller. Is this just because I am working in a Contemporary book format, using a 2 photos per page layout? I'd like to work with maximum flexibility, like starting from the blank template in iWeb, where I can add any number of photos, text, and change all the sizes. Is this possible? Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
How do you resize photos on a page of a book created in iPhoto '09? I can zoom in or out, but I can't figure out how to make a photo smaller.
You resize the photo by clicking on it and zooming
You can not resize the photo frame
Is this just because I am working in a Contemporary book format, using a 2 photos per page layout?
No they all work the same - see Liz Castro's page - http://www.lizcastro.com/iphotobookthemes/ - for a detailed description of iPhoto '08 layouts - all of those carry forward to iPhoto '09 plus there are new ones that she has not documented yet
I'd like to work with maximum flexibility, like starting from the blank template in iWeb, where I can add any number of photos, text, and change all the sizes. Is this possible?
Not in iWeb but you can do pages in any page layout program (word, pagemaker, pages, etc) and print to PDF using the send PDF to iPhoto option to create a totally custom page - see Old Toad's tutorial #19 - http://web.mac.com/toad.hall/OldToadsTutorials/No._19.html - for directions
