Reducing pictures in IPhoto

I have Iphoto 4. How can I reduce the size of the picture to send over email.

Margery
What do you use for Email? If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, Eudora or AOL then you can create the email message in iPhoto, and in doing so you can set the image size.
Otherwise, export the pic to the desktop using the Export command - and you can resize the pic from there.

You could also export the image and use your Preview application to change pixel dimensions.
Open the image in Preview.
Go to: Tools > Image size.
Type in the dimensions you want.

How to I export pictures from iphoto to a sd card

how do I export pictures from iphoto to a sd card?

Exporting from iPhoto to the SD card is preferable. Dragging to the card will only write the lower quality preview files and not the high resolution originals.
Export to a folder on the Desktop and then drag the folder to the card. If the file system on the SD Card is not MacOS Extended (Joournaled), you'll avoid a problem with the limit of files, that can be stored on the top level of the card by collecting all files in a folder.
Actually I found the opposite was true.
As you can see in the following picture, the dragged photo, which is the one named IMG_2268.JPG retained more metadata and had a larger file size than the one I exported which was reduced in file size, and lost a bit of the meta data in the export. Including the creation date, and the latitude and longitude.
I think Dragging is the better option.

After installing mountain lion i lost my pictures in iPhoto, lost my music in iTunes, internet became very slow. What can I do to fix this issues

after installing mountain lion I lost pictures in iphoto, lost my musisc in itunes, my icluod is not working, internet its very slow and some other issues. There is a way how to fix these issues

Open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Photo Stream then reselect it.
Now for your music. Launch iTunes. From the iTunes menu bar top of your screen click iTunes > Preferences then select the Store tab.
Select: Music. (and Apps and Books) if you want.
Click OK.
iCloud syncs via your Wi-Fi network so give it a minute or two to reset your photos and music.
Slow internet ... try turning off the modem for a few minutes, then turn it back on.

I cannot pull up pictures from iphoto. I see them but when I click on them, I get an exclamation mark inside a triangle

I cannot open pictures from iphoto. I see them but when I click on them, I get this exclamation point inside a triangle

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

How do I change the way I get my pictures with iPhoto?

Hi everyone,
Currently i plug in my Canon Powershot SD550 camera and iPhoto opens, i can download the pictures into iPhoto directly from there. i assume it was a setting I made when i first got the new computer and I dont know how to turn it off.
However, I want to plug the camera in and move the photos from the camera to a folder on my desktop so I can name them and so on.
I will import them to iPhoto from the folder afterward.
thanks for any help you can provide

iPhoto menu ==> General ==> Connecting Camera opens ==> no application
Then you can go to the finder and copy the images to a folder and prepare them for importing into iPhoto

Why do you think you have lost "hundreds" of pictures?
What exactly are you seeing
You can try Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

How do I transfer a multiple number of my edited pictures from iPhoto on my iPad to iPhoto on my mac?

I have been working on my ipad with iphoto. First I transferred the pictures from my SD card with connection kit and then I started to edit a lot of them. Now i need to transfer them back to my mac. I would like to continue manage them in Iphoto on the mac but I can not find the option. When I import the pictures via Iphoto or aperture the pictures transfers without the changes I made on the Ipad. I've also tried the command "Send to Itunes" but nothing happens. Do I really need to convert every edited picture to the camera roll ONE BY ONE and then sync the normal way? And I need them with no loss of quality because I want to print a book later. Please help.

There is no link between iPhoto (or Aperture) on your Mac and the app on iOS. So you'll need to export from the iOS app and then import to your preferred app on the Mac. For details on that:

When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in, but always the same album (which I nevr asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I control what is going on and choose the album myself.

When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in aafter about ten minutes, but always the same album (which I never asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I choose a different album myself and control the order and format?

Thank you Winston for a helpful response and for reminding me of something which I found nearly a year ago and then lost (in my mind) because I did not use it. I am grateful for a correct answer but it still only achieves part of what I wanted.
I can now choose my photos, decide how long they stay on screen and choose one of a variety of presentations. Two things I still can't do.
One is to get it to play the photos in the chronological order in which I have carefully set them in an album; it still tends to be random and repetitive. The other is that I cannot get any of them them to saty on screen for more than about 20 seconds. I guess this is all due to the way Apple TV is constructed.
But still thanks, nevertheless.

How can I set up my Apple TV and iPhoto on my iMac so Apple TV can display pictures from iPhoto as a normal slideshow or as a Screen Saver?

I have an iMac and an Apple TV that is connected to the main iTunes library on the iMac. My Apple TV is able to find all the music, videos and pictures that are on the iMac's internal hard drive - presumably via iTunes (music and videos) and directly accessing the Pictures folder. So far, so good!
Recently, I have had to move a lot of my pictures to an external hard drive - and I had hoped that by 'importing' them into iPhoto (without physically duplicating them on the internal drive), I can still have my Apple TV "find" these pictures via iPhoto - and allow me to browse them as before or use them in my screen-saver.
However, while I can see them in iPhoto, my Apple TV seems to be unable to find them - and I am unable to see them on my TV.
So, is this even supported by Apple TV/ iPhoto? Is there some configuration I am missing? Or do I just need to boot up everything from scratch? Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you.
Mahesh

Thanks - I did not realize that Homesharing can be specifically set to a photo destination like that!
So, it would appear that I can either point it to iPhoto (and folders/ events within that) OR the default Pictures folder and subfolders of that OR any other specific folder (and subfolders of that) of my choice. However, I cannot select BOTH the default Pictures folder (and some subfolder of that) AND a folder in iPhoto AND/ OR an event/ folder in iPhoto. Is that a correct assumption?
If so, the only way I see getting homesharing to get both set of pictures is to get all my picture folders (internal and external drive based) into iPhoto (without physically duplicating them) - and then pointing Homesharing to iPhoto, right?
I think you have solved my issue - but I just want to be sure of that.
Thanks a ton!

How do I move the pictures from iphoto to my desktop?

I just imported my pictures to iphoto but am trying to put them on a website. How do i do that?

There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Is there a way to remove the extended phot info attached to a picture in iphoto?

I imported some pictures into iphoto, and they have extended info attached, like my location. Is there a way to remove it?

Hi Fiona,
Okay, the 4th parameter is the issue.
There are four options:
0 = OK (will not have an 'x')
1 = OK, Cancel (will have an 'x')
2 = Yes, No (will not have an 'x')
3 = Yes, No, Cancel (will have an 'x')
Where you do not include a cancel button (0 or 2) then there wont be an 'x':
However where you do include a cancel button (1 or 3) then there will be an 'x':
There wont be a workaround here (afaik), as the messagebox is driven by the OS, eg is automatically appears different on a Mac verses a Windows machine.
Good luck,
Niall
