Setting the photos to look at when making iPhoto book

I'm trying to make an iPhoto book in iPhoto. The problem I have is in when you select photos to add photos to your Book, the drop down selections are:
All Photos In Project
Placed Photos
Unplaced Photos
* My Last Project *
Last Import
Last 12 Months
Flagged
What I'd like to do is be able to add a value to that drop down or add an album. What happens is I start creating my Book, then I realized I want another picture that was not originally part of my project into the book. Then I do some editing on that photo and import it into iPhoto. Sometimes I import other photos into iPhoto after that first picture I edited, but now I have say 5 photos on different imports that I'd like to include into my book. The only easy way I can view those photos I have found is if I flag them if they are not part of the Last Import. I was wondering if there was a better way that would allow me to just choose photos from an already existing album or something that was not part of the initial project.
In the drop down, the *My Last Project*, I'm not even really sure how that gets populated. It looks to be the last project I imported or edited, but not really sure. So in the end, is there a better way I can add photos to a photo book? Or is flagging the best way? Thanks.

What is your iPhoto version?

You can always add to the original project by dragging photos to this project when browsing events or albums.
the *My Last Project*, I'm not even really sure how that gets populated. It looks to be the last project I imported or edited, but not really sure.
The "Your Last project" will be the event you browsed last from the "Events" view in the source list.
In most cases flagging will be the best solution - that is what flags are for.

When making a book, one of my photos selected appears only on the flap, how can I get it to be in the book also?

1. When making a book using Iphoto, one of my photos selected appears only on the back flap, how can I get it to be in the book also? I added an extra page thinking that would help, didn't!
2. It says that you can photos anytime, can I add a photo that I did not select originally without starting completely over?
...any suggesstions for both problems would be appreciated. Thanks

you can use a photo many time is the same book - simply drag it from the photo strip to the photo frame you want it in - even though you have used it before you can still use it again
And adding photos is easy - go to the photo (in an album, event or photo view) and drag the photo(s) to the book under keepsakes - it will now be available to use

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
thank you,
Asaf Privman.

You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at one of these extensions:

Why does iPhoto change the sort order of the photos in my album when I attempt to share via Photo Stream?

Why does iPhoto change the sort order of the photos in my album when I attempt to share via Photo Stream?

Did anyone find a good way to sort the shared albums better, so that the ones you share with can better find their way around.
You can arrange them manually in an album, select all and use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date to menu option and check the box to add a set interval between photos. That will let the photos be sorted by date and be in the order you want:

Known bug. Quit the Camera App, double-tap the home key and delete Camera from the recent apps bar. Fire it up again, should be good.

All photos in portrait format are displayed blurred in the preview mode "fill" of the library. In all other modes e.g. "fit"or "1:2" the photos are sharp. How can I change this, so that the photos are still sharp when displaying them in the mode "fill"?

Thanking you in anticipation!

I'd like to get all these '-1 suffix' files together with their associated Develop adjustments into one folder (if they aren't already) so I can see them in Grid view in the Library module, which I use as my basic starting point for everything else at this early stage of my Lightroom 'career'.
To see what folder these are stored in, right-click on a photo and select "Go to Folder in Library".
Advice: if you are going to use Lightroom effectively, you probably want to stop using folders as your method to create a grouping of photos that are already in Lightroom; there are plenty of built-in tools, such as keywords, collections, color labels, etc.
I don't understand why the search on the entire catalog picked up apparently the same two file versions but also got the Develop adjustments when going to the relevant Folder didn't show the adjustment black squares against each image in Grid view nor were they there when the images were opened in the Develop module. Perhaps if I understood this, I'd be a bit more confident of moving forward myself.
These are most likely different versions of the same photo, in different folders. Lightroom stores the edits in its own catalog, and so it knows that one folder's photos have edits, and the other folder's photos do not have edits. Please understand that Lightroom is a database, it knows where the photos are at the time you import them (or add them to the catalog by synchronize), and then if you move things around in your operating system, Lightroom does not know anything about that and problems begin. Thus the advice to organize using Lightroom tools and methods and not operating system tools and methods.

The external hard drive must connect to your Mac using a USB or FireWire connection.
Note that the hard drive must be formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) to work correctly with the iPhoto Library and be backed up to the Time Capsule and with the backups of your Mac.
We are really talking about iPhoto uses here, so you should post in the iPhoto Support area for more details about this. The link is just below.

When I downloaded the update to 10.9.4 on my Macbook, I lost the photos in my two projects in iPhoto. Is there a way to retrieve them?

I have just found out that my Mac doesn't back up to iCloud. So, have enabled Time Machine. I didn't realise I had to setup the backups - thought they were automatic in the iCloud. Thanks for your help

Iphone 4 the mike does not work when making a call. it does work with speaker phone and face time

Just activated new Iphone 4 and the mike does not work when making a call. it does work with speaker phone and face time. Any known fixes?

My wife's iphone 4 also has your same no ring problem as does my iphone 5 just less often. I called her iphone 4 at home from where I work 20 miles away on my iphone 5. With her phone in 3G mode ONE call went through and 9 went to voice mail in 10 tries. This is a 10% sucess rate!! I also could listen in real time from the wired work phone and the wired home phone. She turned off 3G mode and it went to "O" mode at the top left of the screen after the ATT. In this mode it rang on the first ring tone 5 times out of 5 tries which is 100% of the time. I have learned that the calling party will hear up to 4 ring tones when placing a call on the ATT network. If the ring tone changes volume slightly before the 4th ring then and only then will the cell phone start to ring. If the ring tone does not change after the 4th ring you get voice mail. If the calling party does not leave a voice message there is never a missed call displayed on the iphone. If the calling party does leave a voice message a few minutes later the iphone dings for arriving voice mail but still no missed call indication.
This appears to be related to the time of day and the ATT tower that the receiving caller is using. Tried other towers and it works in 3G mode 10 times out of 10 tries. Apple replaced the first iphone 4 with a new phone, no improvement. ATT replaced the SIM card and no improvement. ATT so far is clue less. This has been going on every since we got the new iphones which is 4 months. The ATT web site also describes this same problem from several years ago. Has anyone got better information?
Thanks

Why is it on the photo app is that when you add your photos to new albums and when you are deleting from camera roll it will delete photos from everywhere so therefore once your photos are in the albums you have chosen you cannot delete f

Why is it on the photo app is that when you add your photos to new albums and when you are deleting from camera roll it will delete photos from everywhere so therefore once your photos are in the albums you have chosen you cannot delete from camera roll

Your photos are actually all in the Camera Roll. The album you create only contain pointers to these pictures. Albums are like music playlists; when you delete a song from the playlist it doesn't delete the song from your music library. But when you delete a song from your music library it will also be deleted from any playlists that it may have been in as well.

How do you import photos from the photo library on an iPhone using iPhoto?

Hello, I am trying to find a way to import photos from the Photo Library on my iPhone using iPhoto. It seems that the default setting only allows for photos in the 'camera roll' section to be imported and not the full photo library. We recently had to replace a hard drive and only had our photos backed up on mobile devices (iphone and ipad), but would like to import them on to our computer. Thank you.

No, iPhoto can't access these files. There are several apps that will recover the material from an iOS device and bring them over to the Mac.

I have a MacPro with OSX 10.9.4 and I photo 9.5. When opening IPhoto I got a message I needed to upgrade my IPhoto with an upgrade installer. Now IPhoto is just spinning and will not let me quit or Upgrade.

BAckup your iPhoto library, depress and hold the option and command keys while launching iPhoto until the first aid window comes up and repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database
