Search photos by name

I have iPhoto 11 and it is getting me very frustrated
It has just created a new batch of photos when exporting a flagged selection to a folder.  All the new photos have  - Version 2 appended to the name.
There are about 240 new photos and I want to select jsut these new ones to delete..why the **** it created them in the first place is a mystery and a pain, but it seems to create duplicates al the time. liek when ediditn in an external editor too
So I want to search for all these new photos, do a CMD A to select them all and delete them
But I cant find a way to search just by name.
if you type in Version 2 in the seach box, it brings up lots more photos than those with just this name
If you click the disclosure triangle you can select to search by different criteria, but not by Name
The search results with All selected and Version 2 in the search window brings up over 9000 photos..most that do not even have even the number 2 in the name or keyword or anything  'Version 2 " does not appear anywhere I can see with relation to the photos it finds yet iPhot seems to bring them up
What the **** is going on here.  Everything jsut takes soo long in iPhoto and you seem to have no control over what it does half the time
I have tried selecting different gropuings before the search, such as Photos/Events /Flagged etc but still can not get it to pull out just the photos with the name Version 2 appended to them. 
Have treid entering with various operators or enclosed in brackets and quotes etc, but have drawn a blank
Any hints on where I am going wrong

Photos on an iPad do not have meaningful file names.   If you synced Photos through iTunes their file names are turned into number sequences (ie img_95040.jpg).  There is nothing to search for that would be of any relevance, hence no to application really do this that I know of.

  • Can we search a photo by Name ?

    Hello
    I need to search photo by Name in my Iphone4S
    I can't do it with the native app Photo and in want to know if it s possible with iPhoto before dl it.
    Thx

    I can't do it with the native app Photo and in want to know if it s possible with iPhoto before dl it.
    No sorry, iPhoto on IOS has no search functionality at all. In iPhoto on IOS you can create "smart" albums based on custom tags, but you have to add these tags manually, to be able to build a "smart" album with photos using this tag. And you do not even see the file names in iPhoto on IOS.

  • How to search photos by title and or keywords on iPhoto for iOS

    Maybe I'm not I'm not seeing things wright but I can't find any possibilitie to search photos by name, title, keyword with iPhoto (1.0.1) on my iPad 2 (5.1.1)
    How can I Search? I don't want to beleive that's not possible...

    Rob,
    as Frank Caggiano said. There is not really any Apple-provided application on the iPad that will support a full-fledged photo database like the Mac-versions of Aperture or iPhoto. Even the IOS app iPhoto is nothing like the Mac version of iPhoto. The iPad version is not a photo database but a tool for editing, sharing, and viewing photos - the iPhoto Help is saying:
    With iPhoto for iOS, you have everything you need to view, edit, and share your photos on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch (with iOS 7).
    You can organize your photos in iPhoto IOS in a limited way by tagging them, so that they will apear in albums: What are albums?
    To tag them with flags or keywords see: Flag, tag, hide photos
    Considering the limited space on IOS devices, the designers probably did not expect anybody to try to store so many photos on an iPad that it would be necessary to search for them other than using the predefined Views (Moments, Places) in the Photos.app, or iPhoto's albums. And any library organization you are doing in the Photos.app or iPhoto will not sync back to your computer.

  • Enhanment Idea: Search photo by folder name

    Hi,
    I would like to search photos in LR as I would do in Explorer.
    I don't use tags, but I give folder names meaningfull names.
    So for example if I have
    Mark in Boston
    Peter in New York
    Mark in Rome
    I would like to do  a search like
    1)
    Find of pictures that whose's folders contains "*Mark*"
    and this will pick "Mark in Boston" and "Mark in Rome"
    2)
    Find "Mark" or "Peter"
    and he will give me pictures from all the threee directory.
    It could be good if we could also actually filter the directory trees based on some parameters.

  • Search by folder name? Monitor folders for changes?

    Im a long time PC user that LOVED how Picasa automatically indexed any locations that I told it to keep track of. I just got Aperture - but so far I am utterly disappointed in the search function.
    When I used to import all of my photos the folder that each import would go under would be the events title.
    For instance if I shot a wedding I would name the folder "John Smith" because in picasa I could just search for "Smith" and it would have all of the files in that folder as results - regardless of their metadata.
    So here I am with a 2 week old Macbook that I love - but I cant find any of the photos that I want to find.
    My library has roughly 40K images - so without the ability to search by folder names it takes me forever to find the files I am looking for.
    *Surely I am an idiot and just dont know how to search by folder name - can someone enlighten me?*
    Also - is it possible for Aperture to monitor certain folders for changes - for instance if I save something to my library folder from photoshop - do I then have to import that one file I just saved? Picasa would just display it under the folder its in - is there any programs for Macs that behave like this?

    aperture can indeed search on the project title. a little harder to find in the filter dialog, but it is there.
    but again, you'll have to import your data differently than i think you did the first time.
    i'm sorry that you're not happy with Aperture doing what you want, but then again, you're upset because it doesn't work with you're old folder structure. Not every application can be expected to be designed for every possible methodology that someone used to manage their existing data. It was set up to be used more visually than your old method and if you can't take the time to organize your photos when you import them to Aperture, then you're right, it probably isn't for you.
    i would suggest you watch the tutorial on searching to see all of the additional metadata you can search by, maybe it would help in some way.... but if not, good luck with LR

  • How can I search photos in my library by definition (300dpi or 72dpi) ?

    Hi, I have several questions before buy Lightroom licence but I haven't find how to do with trial version.
    1° How can I search photos in my library by definition (300 dpi or 72 dpi) ?
    2° Is it possible to search photos by same chromatic scale (all photos with most green for example, to match with a green page setting)
    3° Is it possible to find doubloons (exactly same photo but not same title or format) ?
    (I'm french, so please try to make simple answer)
    Thank you for your answer.
    Aline

    1) This question is based on a misunderstanding of resolution. A digital photo does not have resolution, i.e. it is neither 300 ppi nor 72 ppi not anything else ppi. A digital image has only a pixel dimension - so many pixels horizontal, so many vertical. That's all. Resolution comes only into play when we print an image. For a quality print we need a certain minimum amount of dots per inch. But as long as the image is digital (in the camera or on the computer) it has only pixel dimension - for instance 2000 x 3000 pixels. Therefore you cannot search by 300 ppi or 72 ppi.
    2) What do you mean by "chromatic scale"?  And what do you mean by "photos with most green"?
    Do you mean search for a photo that is taken - let's say - in a forest vs. a photo taken in the desert? No, you can't search for that in Lr since Lr does not recognize image content.
    But if you mean by "mostly green" a color label - yes you can search for photos that have a green color label (or a red one, or yellow, etc.)
    3) No. As already mentioned, Lr does not recognize image content. An exact duplicate of an image that has a different file name is a different image for Lr.

  • If I have a pic in more than one album, does iPhoto make more than one copy of that pic?  When I search the file name on finder, it seems to be showing one copy of that file for every album it's in.

    If I have a pic in more than one album, does iPhoto make more than one copy of that pic?  When I search the file name on finder, it seems to be showing one copy of that file for every album it's in.

    No it doesn't. Albums simply reference the photos in the Library. A single shot can be in 100 albus and use no extra disk space at all.
    If you have the same shot in two Events then yes, the file is duplicated.
    When I search the file name on finder, it seems to be showing one copy of that file for every album it's in.
    The Finder doesn't really understand the iPhoto Library. It's quite possible for the iPhoto Library to contain many files with the same name. The Library also contains different versions of the same shot - thumbnail, originals and edited version. This is normal.

  • Adding link to the photo and Name in the outlook contact card -Enterprise wide

    How can I make the name and photo in the outlook contact card link to my profile page? I read articles where it is mentoined that the URL is set in Registry, currently my organization does not have any link associated with photo and name in contact card.
    I want to implement this across the organization , any deployment or changes that I need to do to implement this across?
    Appreciate if you can provide details on how this is done. The url will look like this:
    https://www.produrl.com/userid={userid}
    How can I dynamically add respective userid in the link?Appreciate your response on this.

    So you want to redesign the contact card in Outlook? Are you using SharePoint? If signed into sharepoint via the social connect, there is a link to the mysharepoint page under View source. I don't think you can change the link or customize the card,

  • Sharepoint 2013 - Search for link names on a single page

    Hi
    I am messing around with SP13 and trying to get my search result web part to only search for link names and display all results.
    I have created the search source to point at the sub site. If I search for part of a link name it will list all links in one long row as a single result.
    Example: One single page contains all links. Each link points to a .aspx page. The search source is pointing at this page and it can display results but only as a single result containing all links as one line of text.
    Say I have 1000+ links of which 50 has names such as Link1-Item1-Basket1, Link1-Item1-Basket2 up to Link1-Item1-Basket50.
    When I search for Link1-Item1 I would like my search results to display 50 results as 50 individual links.
    Is this possible?

    Hi,
    Yes, you can format the search results as you expected.  But you have to create a custom display template to format your results such as extract the links from each results and display it as separate link.
    Once display template created you have to map the display template to your search results web part.
    Please refer to the following articles.

  • How can i print specific pages against searched word or name (in one print command) from 1000 pages

    how can i print specific pages against searched word or name (in one print command) from 1000 pages

    Thanks, Alex!
    ok, I try first approach in print4.vi, but Labview return an error (view jpg); if I cut From, To controls, the VI print all pages. The same things happen also if I trasform I32 in Variant.
    I don't try second approach, because at this time I have only one report
    I try also with VB macro: this is better (print3.vi) but.....if I use:
    Sub Print_Pages_From_To()
    ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.PrintOut Range:=wdPrintFromTo, From:="2", To:="3"
    End Sub
    is ok; print the pages selected; if I use:
    Sub PrintPages()
    ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.PrintOut  Pages:="2-3"  
    End Sub
    printer print all pages.
    what do you think?

  • In iTunes 11.0.2.26, an Albums search by track names returns albums as if they only have one track on them, but I still want to access the entire album. How can I have the search results show the entire album (with just the searched for name highlighted)?

    Hello, all.
    In iTunes 11.0.2.26, an Albums search by track names returns albums as if they only have one track on them, but I still want to access the entire album. How can I have the search results show the entire album (with just the searched for name highlighted)? For instance, I'm wanting to play an album with a particular track on it or I'm searching for albums that include that track. iTunes incorrectly assumes that all I'm after is that one track and then incorrectly displays the album as if there is only one ttrack on it. This is a bonkers default setting. Can I change this?

    Click the search magnifying glass and uncheck "Search entire library".
    Type in the name of the track.
    Click the album of interest to show tracks.
    Select the track.
    Press the X in the search box to clear the search.
    Double click the track you want to start playing first.

  • How do I change a photo file name, e.g. DSC001, etc.?

    When I either import or download digital images into IPhoto, I need to change the filename in some instances.  Using the Information feature in IPhoto, I give the photo a name or identifier and add other information.  However, when I then burn the photo to a CD, the original filename, e.g. DSC001, etc. shows up.  How can I change it?

    Best,

    That does NOT change the file name and does not help (Unless you use the option to use the title for the file name during export) - You can not change the file name while the photo is in iPhoto (unless you do so using the finder awhick will corrupt your library and cause data loss)

    I'm afraid you'll have to get the phone serviced, dropping the phone must have damaged additional parts inside the phone.
    But Apple will not service the phone anymore, opening the phone and replacing the battery should only be done by authorized personal, not by users.
    You'll have to look for a 3rd party repair shop and see if they can fix this, sorry.
