Photos not in folders

how can I get my photos to sync into folders ? using windows 7 os

Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

How can I recover Photos, Notes and Calendar folders?

I have a brand new iPod and have apparently deleted the folders for Photos, Notes and Calendar so I can't sync these items up. (The folders don't appear anymore in iTunes or in Finder). Is there any way I can get those folders back or download them from somewhere?

In the Finder, open the iPod's icon on the desktop, and choose New Folder from the File menu; create and name new folders until you've recreated all of them.

Burning photos in separate folders to DVD from iPhoto/F

Hi,
I have sorted my photos into various folders within an album on iPhoto and would like to burn these onto one DVD in their separate folders (as opposed to lumping them all onto one DVD in one big folder).
Unfortunately, when I insert a blank DVD and choose Open Finder, it no longer shows the photos in their separate folders, they are all bunched together. This would not be a problem if my SuperDrive (and Windows PC) didn't take a dogs age to preview the photos once they are burnt onto DVD but it does, therefore, I like to break them up into folders of around 100 photos each in order for the photo previews to load reasonably quickly.
Does anyone know how to keep the photos in their separate folders and burn them onto a DVD keeping them in their separate folders please?
Many thanks.

Let's make sure we have the same terminology here. In the left hand pane of iPhoto we have folders and albums. Folders can hold albums. So are you referring to albums within a folder?
If so you will have to export each album's photos to a folder on the Desktop via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option. Once all of the albums have been exported to its own folder drag them onto a blank DVD disc in the optical drive and burn.

Photos Not Loading After Transferring Library

I have recently transferred my Aperture 3 Library from my old 2006 iMac to my new 2011 iMac. The folders and albums appear the same as they did on my old iMac and the number of photos in each of the folders and albums appear as a popup when I run my cursor over the each of the folders and albums, but the actual photos have not loaded into the majority of my folders and albums. The photos load when I open some of my albums (with "Loading" appearing in the bottom left corner), but not for most albums ("Processing" appears in the bottom left corner with no activity in the Browser). I initially thought that the smaller JPEG files were loading and larger RAW files were not, but this does not seem to be the case. Any ideas why I cannot see the photos even though they are apparently in the albums? Any recommendations on how to load the photos into my folders and albums?

Is it just some of the images? Are the images from different cameras? Is there a reprocess option at the top of the Adjustments tab in your Inspector? Are there blank spots where the photos should be? Are any filters applied in the search field?
Just some of the things to check. If you post a screenshot it may give us some more to go on as well.

photos not getting added up to my photostream. It's showing some kinda registry error in my windows. Plz help!!

Hi Melissa_C!
I have an article for you that may help shed light on this circumstance:
iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4486
How long are My Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud?
The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them.
How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with My Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream. For iCloud Control Panel 2.0 to 2.1.2 users, the path isC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream .

'All Photographs' contains more photos than in folders

All photographs collection contains more photos than in folders - (Using LR 4) There are about 6k more photos that are in my catalog (All Photographs) than what is showing up in my folders below. All of my photos are located on an external hard drive. I have them organized by year. So for example, if in LR I click on 'All Photographs' in the library module, I can see hundreds of photos from 2009. I can also see all these photos on my external hard drive under the 2009 folder. However , these photos do not show up under the folders in LR. I've tried 'synchronizing' my folder in LR, but it thinks all of the photos are duplicates, since they are indeed already in the catalog (just not the folder)

To tell you the truth, this kind of thing is nearly impossible to diagnose across the internet, so I have only a few pieces of advice on how to fix this.
If an entire folder has been copied to the internal drive, and that's where you did the editing, but you'd like to use the copies on the external drive, then right-click on the Folder name and select Update Folder Location and point to the corresponding folder on the external drive.
The other piece of advice I have is kind of trivial ... don't create more duplicates! don't put photos on your internal drive! If you yourself are more organized, then Lightroom will reflect that!
Good luck

Syncing photos from several folders in iTunes to iOS devices

Hi,
I am trying to set up iTunes to sync photos on my MacBook Pro to my iOS devices (first of all, my iPhone 5, but to my iPad mini and iPad 3 as well).
I happen to store my photos in a folder with a several level hierarchy: in the main photo folder there are folders for each year, in those there are folders for each event, and in those there is a separate folder for the subset of my photos that I want to be synced (photos that I like the most).
Apparently, iTunes allows to select folders for syncing in only 1 level of hierarchy. That would mean that one must not have separate folders for each year, nor for good and not-so-good photos - only one basic photo folder, and inside that folders for each event, and so every photo from selected events would be synced.
I tried a workaround: I created a specific new folder especially for syncing purposes, and I defined Smart Folders inside it. These Smart Folders would contain my desired photos virtually. (I didn't want to make physical copies of my photos, because I did not want to waste disc space.) But then it turned out that iTunes does not recognize photos in Smart Folders, only those in physical folders.
Can you give me a solution, how could I sync photos in iTunes to my iOS devices, if these photos are not in folders that are only one but more level deep in hierarchy?
Thanks a lot,
Mikulka

It works the way it works. I'd recommend you create a separate folder for any photos that you want to put on your devices, with one layer of subfolders as separate albums. Each device can sync with a different selection of those album folders.

Syncing Photos from different folders...?

I know it never worked in the beginning-but has someone found a way to sync photos not from only one folder but from different folders to the ipod?
something like a photo playlist...?

You can sync from different folders if they are all sub-folders beneath a main one. If the main folder you are syncing from has sub folders they will show in the box below "Sync photos from folder". For example you may choose to sync from My Pictures and inside My Pictures you have folders for different subjects. You can choose which of those subject folders you want to update to the iPod or you might want to make a folder in there especially for iPod photos. You can drag these folders into an order of your choice.
Here's a simple "How To" on downloading photos from a folder and sub folders on your hard disk to an iPod:
1 Create a folder on your hard drive to hold the photos you want on your iPod. Call it iPod Photos for example
2 Inside this folder create as many other folders as you want (or drag and drop existing ones from other locations on your hard drive)
3 Drag the photos you want from your usual picture folder into the appropriate folders you just created. (not necessary if you are using pre-existing folders already containing photos)
4 Open iTunes, select your iPod in the iTunes Source list.
5 Click the Photos tab and select “Synch photos from.”
6 Choose “Choose Folder” from the pop-up menu and select the iPod photos folder you created.
7 Choose the radio button "Selected folders"
8 Tick the folders you want to go on the iPod and click Apply
When you go to Photos on your iPod you'll see each of the folders you have chosen in the menu and you can choose whichever one you want to view.

How to Interleave photos from different folders to Create a Slideshow.

I have LR 1.4.1 and am trying to create a slide show from photos collected in folders marked by the day they were taken. In addition there is a folder loaded with jpeg Title Pages intended to be inserted to mark the beginning of a new day in the slide show.
I am having trouble figuring out whether I should be in Library to interleave all these photos and title pages or in Slideshow. I am not able to reorder or compile into a new order in any mode I can detect. Should I be in a Quick Collection or just a Collection or somewhere else to order all the slides. Should I be in Grid view or Loupe view? Can I see the order and alter it in the Film Strip perhaps? I need to be able to SEE the slides from a source and the resulting ordered slides for a slide show to accomplish this.
Has anyone had this problem and solved it? I tried to accomplish this in iPhoto with no luck. Is what I am trying to do outside the norm for creating slide shows?
Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
Raymond Zachary

Ray,
It sounds like you tried to open a new catalog, not create a collection.
Go under the file menu and click open recent. You should see your old catalog listed. Once you have that opened, go through and mark all the photos you want. You can use color labels, or some nonsence keyword, like qwqw or any method you like. Once you have them all marked, be sure you have all photos selected, then filter for your keyword or color lable, or whatever you marked them with. Then select all those photos. Then go down the right panel until you see Collections. Click on the + icon. In the dialog box that opens, give your collection a name and be sure the box "Add selected photos to this collection" is checked. Then click OK. Now you'll have a collection of the photos you want to use. If you want to add any to the collection, you can just drag them into the collection name. Be sure you're dragging from the thumbnail, and not from the border around the thumbnail. If you want to remove a photo from the collection, just right click it and check remove selected photo from collection.
You can then take your collection, and reorder them anyway you like. And then go to the slideshow module and there you go.
Hope this makes sense.

Photoshop Elements 10 is not monitoring folders

Hi,
I would be very grateful if someone could help me, please.
I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and have configured the folders I want to monitor. But, newer photos and videos were inserted on subfolders of that folders, and Elements 10 don't do nothing.
The folders to monitor are, for example:
/myuser/documents/photos
/myuser/documents/videos
I inserted new photos and fideos on:
/myuser/documents/photos/new_photos
/myuser/documents/photos/new_videos
I opened Elements 10 and nothing happened. The organizer don't detected nothing.
Could someone help me, please?

Hi,
So, I verified, and the Adobe Active File Monitor V10 service is initiated
on the list displayed on services.msc.
But the organizer still don't doing nothing when I insert new files on
subfolders of the monitored folders.
Someone has some idea about what can I do more to solve this, please?

Iphoto photos not opening get black exclamation mark

iphoto photos not opening get black exclamation mark when open thumbnails

Not sure what you meant by "missing till" but all of the photos and movies are there. I concluded that searching for several photos by their file name and then opening them with Preview.
I'm pretty certain that I only used the Picasa desktop app to test using the Picasa web service for some family photos. I don't think I used it to edit any photos in the iPhoto library but I suppose it's possible that I did without really thinking about it.
Why to I have tiffs? - As far as I know I don't. They are all jpg or mov files. I can't imagine why that error dialog said I was missing a tiff.
I just noticed based upon your suggestion to review the package contents. I have folders for Modified and Originals which I've seen before. But I also have folders for Photos - Modified and Photos - Original. I haven't seen those last two before. Moreover, all but 6 of my latest photos are in those last two folders. iPhoto can show me their thumbnails but can't open them. iPhoto can open the 6 photos in the "Original" folder. I didn't notice that before because they represent a very small portion of my library and I didn't select the right photos.
iPhoto Library Manager could see only those 6 photos in the Original folder. There are none in "Modified". So iPLM obviously can't see the photos in Photos - Modified or in Photos - Original. Looking at the Info for these two folders, I see they were created on January 7, well more than a month before I downloaded Picasa. Somehow all but 6 of my photos got moved to these new folders. I must have done something to cause this but I have no clue what.
Sorry this is so long but usually details are important. Do you recommend that I use the Merge Libraries function in iPLM?
Thanks!

Can I send an E-Mail with photo (not as an attachment)?

I would like to send an E-Mail with a small photo (not as an attachment) to someone who is reluctant to open attachments. Can I do this and how??
Thank you
tch

If you insert an image into the body, it will still be 'attached', even though it won't be listed as an attachment in the usual way. Another option is to upload the photo to your personal storage space such as OneDrive or Google Drive, and then email the link to the image. The image can then be displayed in a web browser. If you don't have a storage space, there are plenty of free image-hosting services.

How to delete photos not in camera roll?

How to delete photos not in camera roll?

The only way to delete photos NOT in the camera roll is to sync the phone with those photos deselcted.
@iLikeCheesyStuff: The photo stream photos are in the camera roll as well. The OP is referring to photos synced to his phone, which can't be deleted directly on the phone.

Photos not syncing after update to photo app

photos not uploading to photo app after update, I have over 10,000 photos that are trying to upload and the last import says 2013 instead of last week. I have a MacBook pro and my icloud sharing is on and I purchased more space so that is not the problem

i can sync movies, music, podcasts and tv shows just fine, but whenever i try to sync photos, then i am getting the exclamation mark and nothing - not even the movies and tv shows that worked before - get synched anymore.
This seems contradictory, I'm not clear whether music, movies etc work for you or not.
In regard to the photos, make sure iphoto sharing is enabled and not blocked by your firewall, you could try creating a new photo library in the same location but with a different name to your existing library to avoid overwriting it, to see if it's a photo library issue or something else.
