Sorting photos...how to most easily view thumbnails/events....

I run Mac 10.5.8 & Photos '08 7.1.5.
In the past, when I'd open iPhoto, I'd get a list of all my events. I could click on an arrow and the event would open with all thumbnails present. I could click to open or drag to the trash easily.
It's not that way anymore. Now I get a square photo designating each event when I open - in a grid. To see all the thumbnails in an event, I have to click on the event, then go to "Open Event In Other Window". I don't know what has happened to add this other step. Perhaps it was an iPhoto update, or something I did.
I'd like it back the old way, where I could access thumbnails far more easily, not to mention trash subpar photos. Anything I can do?
Thanks,
Carl

Carl:
Enter the Photo mode, go to the View menu and select Event Titles to be shown. You'll get exactly what we had with the older iPhoto with Rolls.
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 versions) 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 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: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

How to call a view without event handler onaction method.

Hi Experts,
I have develop a WD application. It has three views let view1, view2 and view3.
In view1 one button is there (onaction) which navigates to view2 through outbound plug wd_This->Fire_Out_Screen1_Plg(   ). where Out_Screen1 is outbound plug of view1.
Now view2 appears , I want that after 10 seconds view2 automatically call view3, without action on view2.
I have written like wd_This->Fire_OUT_SCREEN2_Plg( ). where OUT_SCREEN2 is outbound plug of view2, which navigates to inbound plug of view3.
But its not working. Please suggest how to and where to write code to call a view without action .

How do I sort photos WITHIN folder view?

Okay, I'll admit, to me, Adobe has always been defined as "too many features and too confusing to me," but I'll give it a shot.
I looked through help, etc. and I have a seemingly simple question - how do I sort photos, new to old, WITHIN folder view of the browser? I don't WANT to show ALL my photos, just folder by folder, oldest to new, NOT by filename!
This is a simple right-click context menu in Paint Shop Pro, has been for many versions. Why can't I find how/where to do this in Photoshop Elements? It's the kind of thing that makes simpletons like me keep running away from complex Adobe products.
Help me, SOMEONE, through this seemingly simple task and... I'll be most appreciative.

>how do I sort photos, new to old, WITHIN folder view of the browser? I don't WANT to show ALL my photos, just folder by folder, oldest to new, NOT by filename!
Well since folders are not the primary method of using the Photo Browser in Elements, I don't think that folder view has everything that you want.
If you want to look at a single folder in this sequence you could use the Instant Tag function to apply the tag to all photos in that folder, then use a Tag search by clicking on the box to the left of the tag that is the folder name and then choose oldest first while displaying just the photo files from that folder. This may sound long, but it takes lees time to do than it takes to type a description.

In iPhoto if I select View, then Sort Photos by title, how do I stop it reverting to sorting by date when I close iPhoto and re-open it later?

In iPhoto if I select View, then Sort Photos by title, how do I stop it reverting to sorting by date when I close iPhoto and re-open it later?

In what mode, Events, Photos or in an Album, are you when you select View ➙ Sort ➙ By Title?
As a first fix attempt try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

When you say Elements 9 do you mean Photoshop Elements, Premiere Elements or the Elements Organizer?
Technically there is no program called simply Elements.

IOS 5 sorts photos randomly. How do I get back to viewing them in chronological order?

iOS 5 sorts photos randomly. How do I get back to viewing them in chronological order?

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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.

In Photoshop Express, cannot sort images in album by filename in thumbnail view (for slideshow)l.

In Photoshop Express, I want images to appear sorted by filename. In the "view as a table" it sorts fine. When I revert to the thumbnail view, the arrangement is random. The dropdown "show" list does not offer an option for showing by filename. If I select the"custom" option, it means I would need to sort 300 images by filename MANUALLY (!!!), a job that a computer does in milliseconds. Anyone with a solution? Thanks.

fwiw, with my images in the 'Folder Location' view the photos are in order by their Windows filename. That is the same order as the hardcopy album the photos came from. So I then created a PSE Album. I selected all my photos and moved them into that album. The order of the pictures was retained in the Album. That worked out great. I wanted my PSE images to be in the same order. I thought I would do it with tags. But creating an album seems to work just fine.

How Can I Make A Large Photo with Product Detail for My Thumbnails in Dreamweaver

Hello All:
New to Dreamweaver, so my code knowledge does not exist yet. Have Mercy!!!!
Anyway , I am making a typical product page.
I prefer that when people click the thumbnail product photo to not have to click into another brower.
Nowadays you are able to click in what is commonly called a "Quick View" that pops up and gives you a full sized
image along with product detail, and pricing. That's all I want.
How can I link this [the larger photo and product detai] to my thumbnails in Dreamweaver????
I want the look that is on every website like Target, Macy, etc.
Someone, please help me to !!!!!!!
These lil' faces are really cute. They are helping me to smile after hours and days, weeks of frustration. TWIN MADDOG!!!

Hi,
don't understand your problem, ore hope to understand it right. You could put the images on a DW file and link to another file with the larger image and where you have written all your informations.
I made this here only for a new, larger image (without additional informations):

Hello, does anyone have any advice on how to sort photos in an albumn on an Iphone by date of photo? I've ordered them all in my Pictures but then when I sync them across through Itunes, they all end up in a jumble on my phone. Thanks!

When viewing an album on the iPhone you can tap "Photos" at the bottom and that will show all photos by date. Unfortunately though it is all photos, not just the album you are currently viewing.
What I have done is the following. On the computer I have a main folder (e.g. iPhone photos) and then make sub-folders within that. Placing photos that will be synched to the iPhone into various subfolders gives quite a bit of organizational capablility. In iTunes when you select the main folder to sync, the sub-folders will show on the iPhone as separate albums. Beyond that, in one case where I really wanted a specific sort within an album I renamed the photos on the computer (something like A-picxxx, B-picxxx) so they sorted on the computer alphabetically in the order I want on the phone. That sort order was maintained after the sync.
Note that each time you sync using iTunes, the non-Camera Roll pictures on the phone will be set to match the current iTunes settings/photos -- so you can experiment.

How can I sort photos by file name in Photos?

New Photos seems to be very limiting, even compared to iPhoto. How can I sort photos by filename? Many photos that worked in iPhoto, can't be viewed in Photos.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Titles don't use the filename any longer, but if you must have them you might be interested in Léonie's script here.

How to find the Names of Most costly Views or Most Time consuming views

Hi All,
I had a database consisting of almost 200 views,as a part of Optimization process i want to find out the most costlier views.How to do that.Actually i want the names of the VIEWS,so that i can optimize that.Can any one help me out?
I had one more doubt in our Database a view is created like view A( which is created by joining several tables).so do i need to add index on this view separately or does it take the index of the tables which i joined? And in our Database i had created
a VIEW which is derived from other views(the Joining objects are views not tables),so while i select recoreds from this views which is derived from other views it is taking a lot of time.Is tehre any problem with that?

The photos in my IPhoto have all become mini-thumbnails and I can't open or edit them. When I print the image it comes out normal size. How do I get the thumbnails back to the standard size and be able to work with them?

What version of iPhoto and system are you running? On the guess that you're running the latest iPhoto, 9.4.2, Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the thumnails, Option #2.
2 - It may take 2-3 attempts so don't give up after only one attempt.

How to sort photos in albums by date in iPhoto '11

For some reason that I have yet to divine, iphoto 11 jumbles the order of photos in any album I create. For example, I have an album called 'Family', and rather than display the photos by the date they were taken, it jumbles them into a mish mash of images. I took 50 pics yesterday and imported them last night. I opened iphoto today to make some edits, and the photos have been dispersed throughout an album of thousands of images. I know I can go and examine the images in 'Events' or 'Photos', but I'd like to see them in context with the rest of my family photos.
Is there some way to get albums to sort photos by date taken like the older versions of iphoto?
Thanks in advance,
Peter

I may be getting confused with what you need here but does going to:
"View --> Sort Photos --> By Date" solve things?

New "Photos" is a piece of JUNK! How do I get my image numbers to display as imported like they used to? Can no longer make Events or view old events as before either.

How do I get my image numbers to display as imported like they used to? Can no longer make Events or view old events as before either.
If this is replacing Aperture and previous iPhoto it is USELESS...WAY fewer options for editing available. New "Photos" is a piece of JUNK!

Hi.
I have just migrated my library from Aperture to photos. All seems to have gone smoothly, except for one thing. All of my photos are 'untitled', whereas in both Aperture, and previously iPhoto, the filename was used for the title. If I hit CMD+I and get info, the title is still there as the filename, as I use the filename for all titles.
Is there a way to batch copy all filenames as photo titles, this was done automatically in Aperture and iPhoto, as when photos were imported the filename was used automatically.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
