Saving "faces" info on photos that will be moved to different drive

Before I start this project, I thought I would get the wisdom of the group.
I will be going on trip and planned on copying my photo directory off a server to a MyBook external drive.
I am thinking about using my down time to both edit and also use "faces" to ID many of the folks that I have in about 240 gig's of photos.
While I have iPhoto and use it for iWeb projects etc, and of course for "faces" , I do most of my editing in Photoshop and don't store the great majority of photos in the iPhoto library.
My question is, can I use "faces" on the images stored on the MyBook and later transfer that directory back to the server and retain the information?
Will the information be available to other iPhoto users using different machines??
Is the "faces" data written into Metadata, key words or XMP files that are used in Photoshop? And does it move as the file is transferred from disk to disk?
Thanks
Dunc

My question is, can I use "faces" on the images stored on the MyBook and later transfer that directory back to the server and retain the information?
You can use Faces only on pics in the iPhoto Library. The data is stored independent of the pics in DB files within the Library package. IF you move the Library then the data will move with it. If the other folks are sharing the same library, yes the data is available to them. IF, however, you export the photos there is no way to export the Faces data along with the pic, unless you use keywords.
The faces data is not written to metadata, keywords or XMP data, and it does not move with the file, only with the Library.
As the faces process gathers the pics for you, it’s easy to add keywords to the pics yourself.

Once you dropped your iPhone, will the quality of new photos that will be captured be affected once you took a new ones?

Once you dropped your iPhone (no damage), will the quality of new photos that will be captured be affected once you took a new ones? Can someone give advise? Just wondering if that would affect my iPhone. I dropped it once without case. I'm using an iPhone 5s.
Kind Regards,
Zaldy

Not quite clear about the question. Does the camera take pictures in lower quality after you dropped the phone than before? In that case the camera might be damaged and your phone needs to be serviced:
Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
Some more things to try before that:
Camera
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

What is maximum number of photos that will display in a slideshow

I share photos from iphoto album. What is maximum numbers of photos that will show in any one album?

If you are referring to the screensaver, it will vary but typically around 100.

Series of photos that will auto-play

I'm making a web site where the homepage will have a series
of photos that will play in random order. Can I do that in
Fireworks or Dreamweaver CS3 or did I need to puchase Flash?
The effect I'm talking about is something like what you see
on this page:

I will appreciate any leads you can give me. Thanks!

I can't load pictures to online site... Iphoto works but not aperture. I have edited photos that i exported to an external drive but they will still not load to Walgreens for printing. Does anyone know what I can do?

I can't load pictures to online site... IPhoto works but not aperture3. I have edited photos that I exported to an external drive but they will still not load to Walgreens for printing. Does anyone know what I can do?

Are you shooting RAW? Are you exporting masters or versions? Is there a size limitation on the Walgreens site?

Is it possible to create a DVD of photos that will play on a television?

Is it possible to create a DVD of photos from iPhoto that will play on a television?

Yes. You'll need a video DVD authoring application like iDVD and an external optical drive. I suggest a 3rd party optical drive as the Apple Superdrive is limited to USB 2 which has rather slow through put. Get one with USB 3 or FW.
Export a slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. For iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier select Size = Medium or Large. For iPhoto 9.5 and later selct 480p. Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Or open iDVD, select a theme, create a slideshow in iDVD and add the photos from iPhoto via the Media Browser in iDVD.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
There are simpler (in features) video DVD authoring applications available from the App Store.

IPhoto: I have several photos that will not open in the edit mode. They also will not open to a screensaver.

2) I have several pictures that will not open in the edit mode. There is just a blank screen when I attempt to open them. I cannot export them to the desktop either. Message is: Unable to create/Users/(my name)/Desktop

There are photos that will not play on my slideshow. They are not hidden. Any suggestions?

I have photos in the library that will not show on the slideshow. Any suggestions?

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.

How do I "house" more photos than will fit on my internal drive?

I'm just about ready to try to make my entire digital photo collection available on my Mac. But since I only have 120GB, I think it will be too crowded to put them all on the internal hard drive (I have them in several locations, but I think the total will be around 60-80,000??). I have an external drive with PLENTY of space, but I don't keep it connected all the time. What is the best way to set this up? Hubby and I are separate users, and I can easily divide the libraries in two that way. Right now, all the currently taken photos are being put on "his side" in iPhoto.
Oh, and I'm using iPhoto 7 (iLife '08) on a Tiger (10.4.11) with no plans to further upgrade any time soon.
I haven't really read enough much about the iPhoto file structure, and prefer to just let iPhoto handle it, and then back up regularly...

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If the external HD is formatted for the Mac you can just move your library to the external and run it from there. You can have a smaller library on your laptop with more current photo or those photos needed for a project. iPhoto Library Manager can be used to quickly change from one library to anotherr and copy albums or events between the two.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Error Message For Photos that will not import

I transported photos from an old pc to my imac using a flash memory drive.
Of the 1000 or so photos, there are 2 that are "stuck" -- they never uploaded successfully.
Now, whenever I open iPhoto, it says "2 photos were found in the library that were not imported. Do you want to import them"
- When I say "Yes", they get imporeted as "recovered photos" in a separate album. But the next time I open iPhoto, I still get the same error message.
- When I say "No", I'm told of a location in my users folder where these files are saved. I go there and delete them, but get the same error message the next time I open the program.
Help!
Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?

Make a background photo that will resize to the users browser size

I'm trying to create an effect like this in Iweb:

3: do I paste it in the "Index" file or the "Blank" file.

I couldn't drag my photos from iphoto to my desktop or folder so I rebuilt from automatic backup and some photos were saved but not the photos that I need. what do i do?

I have a macbook pro and I updated iphoto to the latest version, last night.

Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder Window should open with the file selected. Does it?

Can you create an image map that will link to a different element on the same page?

I have used image maps before and know how to create an image map to link to a new page. In this case, however, I want to be able to click on my image using an image map and load a new image with text on the same page as the image map. Is this even possible? Is there some sort of behavior that allows you to create same-page links, perhaps using AP divs? I want the end result to be a type of gallery that loads different images depending on where you click on the main image.
Again, I don't even know if this is possible. Any suggestions on how to make this work would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Is there a printable DVD label that will not cause my Super Drive to crash?

CD Stomper and Avery paper labels cause the Super Drive to: reject the CD/DVD disk; report that the disk is damaged/unreadable; or just grind to a halt. Replaced the iMac internal Super Drive - still has same problem. Disks were prepared using the Super Drive and play without problems until I put a label on and try to play it in the same Super Drive. Labeled disks work fine in LG and Panasonic DVD players connected to TVs.

Many thanks. Used an external LG super multi drive burner to put labels on DVDs using Lightscribe, but the contrast and label limitations (black-gray) are less than ideal. Noticed that Avery sells CD/DVD label packages with paper labels for about 40 CDs and 2 "film" labels for DVDs. Web site doesn't appear to have packages of just DVD "film" labels. Has anyone had success with "film" labels for DVDs?
