Splitting an event takes more than 3 min

Hi,
I have about 8.000 photos in my library and 2.500 photos in a single event. Now I want to extract a set of pictures from this event and move it in a new event. Is there a faster way doing this than splitting the event before and after the set of pictures? This created 3 events and then I have to move the 3rd event back into the first, the 2nd event is what I want to keep.
BTW, with over 8.000 pictures in the library, is it normal that splitting an event takes more than 3 minutes?

Danielle
Flag the pics you want to move to the new Event and the go Events -> Create Event from Flagged Photos. That will probably be faster.
BTW, with over 8.000 pictures in the library, is it normal that splitting an event takes more than 3 minutes?
I wouldn't have thought so, but it might take a while with an Event that has more that 2,500 pics in it. Remember, Events in the iPhoto Window correspond exactly with the Folders in the Originals Folder in the iPhoto Library package file (Right click on it in the Pictures Folder -> Show Package Contents). So splitting an event literally means creating a folder and moving files to it and so on.

TD

  • Save an empty document in InDesign CC and Illustrator CC takes more than 3 min.

    Save an empty document in InDesign CC and Illustrator CC takes more than 3 min.
    The same if you open an empty document.
    I monitored the application status using Activity Monitor and every time I saved a document the application didn't respond then, after about three minutes, comes back to life.
    I'm working on a MacBook Pro, 2.6 Ghz, 8 Gb Ram with OS X 10.9.
    Please let me know If someone else had the same issue because I use Adobe softwares not only for my personal job but also to show people how Adobe software works...
    Thanks.
    Andrea Spinazzola

    Adobe Drive is the reason!
    Please communicate this to everybody massively because I think is the reason why many Adobe CC users refer about bad performance.
    I heard many issues related to this and no one talk about this.
    Thanks Hank.

  • Ipod mini cant take more than 20 songs

    About 2 versions of itunes ago my ipod mini stopped being able to take more than 20-30 songs. I do not synch my mini as it can't hold all the songs I have in itunes. But when I try to drag songs it won't take as much as it used to. I've restored 6 or 7 times and it seems to get worst. I can drag one song at a time but around the tenth it copies really slow and by the time I get to the 20th it just hangs on copying and i have to force quit.
    I have an old mini from 3 years ago. It's never been dropped or anything like that. Any thoughts?

    When iPod Mini is ON Hold down the center and menu button. When you see the apple you will need to hold the center button and the play/pause button! Here are apple's steps! Then restore you iPod Mini
    Learn how to manually put iPod into Disk Mode.
    When troubleshooting an issue with your iPod, it's sometimes helpful to manually put it into Disk Mode. Read the instructions below for iPods that have a Click Wheel. If you're not sure if your iPod has a Click Wheel, click here. In order to return it to its normal operating state, you will have to reset iPod. The instructions in this article do not apply to iPod shuffle models.
    Putting iPods with a Click Wheel into disk mode
    Before placing the iPod into disk mode, you should verify that it is charged.
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Set it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons for at least 6 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
    When the Apple logo appears, release the Menu and Select buttons and immediately press and hold the Select and the Play/Pause buttons until the Disk Mode screen appears.
    Connect the iPod to your computer; the screen on the iPod will change and say "Do not disconnect"
    If you are having difficulty putting the iPod model into disk mode, set it on a flat surface. Make sure that the finger pressing the Select button is not touching the Click Wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Play/Pause button toward the outside of the Click Wheel and not near the center.
    If you are still unable to put your iPod with a Click Wheel into Disk Mode, use one finger from one hand to press the Select button, and one finger from the other hand to press the Play/Pause button.
    If you have an older iPod model without a Click Wheel
    Before placing the iPod into disk mode you should verify that it has a charge.
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Set it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Play/Pause and Menu buttons until the Apple/iPod logo appears, then release them. This resets iPod. When you reset iPod all your music and data files are saved, but some customized settings may be lost.
    When the Apple logo appears, immediately press and hold the Previous and Next buttons until the Disk Mode screen appears.
    Connect the iPod to your computer; the screen on the iPod will change and say "Do not disconnect
    Now click RESTORE to restore you iPod Mini

  • I used scripting brigde to add a movie that has size bigger than 5GB, exactly after two minutes iTunes return a failed, but the processing of the file is actually added to iTunes Library successfully. The copying take more than 5 minutes to complete. Why?

    I used scripting brigde to add a movie that has size bigger than 5GB, exactly after two minutes iTunes return a failed, but the processing of the file is actually added to iTunes Library successfully. The copying take more than 5 minutes to complete. Why the iTunes Scripting Brigde returned failed when it is actually success? It occurred exactly 2 minutes after submit the request to Scripting Brigde. Is this 2 minutes related to the Apple Event time out? if it does, how do I get around this problem? thx

    I can tell you that this is some of the absolutely worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I found out from a store employee that when they are really busy with calls, they have third party companies taking overflow calls. One of those companies is Xerox. What can a Xerox call center rep possibly be able to authorize on a Verizon account?  I'm Sure there is a ton of misinformation out there due to this. They don't note the accounts properly or so everyone can see them. I have been transferred before and have asked if they work for Verizon or a third party also and was refused an answer so, apparently they aren't required to disclose that information. I spent a long time in the store on my last visit and it's not just customers that get the runaround. It happens to the store employees as well and it's beyond frustrating.

  • Light Switch 2011 "C#" How to allow filter which take more than one entry to take * and show all other entries?

    Dear All,
    I have created the following code which extended my filter functionality and allowed a to take more than one entry (Comma have to be inserted after
    each entry). 
    For example:
    "Country Filter" can take ----> Germany,Egypt,Holand<o:p></o:p>
    "City Filter " can take ---------> Berlin,Münster
    if (Country_PAR != null)
    String[] Country_Array = Country_PAR.Split(new Char[] { ','});
    query = from p in query where Country_Array.Contains(p.Hotel_Country) select p;
    if (City_PAR != null)
    String[] City_Array = City_PAR.Split(new Char[] {','});
    query = from p in query where City_Array.Contains(p.Hotel_City) select p;
    Now want to extend it more and say something like:
    If  * is included ---- > Give me all entries        
         ex. Ge*     This will give me everything which starts with Ge
    If <> is entred -----> Give me entries which are not equal to a certain entry
         ex. Country Filter = <> Germany          give me all other entries except Germany
    Thanks alot,
    Zayed

  • Using numbers 2.3 how do i split windows to view more than 1 spreadsheet at a time?

    using numbers 2.3 how do i split windows to view more than 1 spreadsheet at a time?

    Hi seth,
    Numbers vocabulary:
    Spreadsheets (aka: Document)
    contain one or more Sheets
    on each of which may be placed one or more Tables
    each of which contains one or more cells
    each of which may contain either data or a formula.
    Spreadsheets open in separate windows. Depending on the contents of each spreadsheet, and the scale at which you want to see it (and the size of your display), you can view more than one spreadsheet in the same manner as you can view more than one of any kind of document—open two documents in separate windows. Resize the windows to allow both to be viewed at the same time. Place and scale the individual documents to permit viewing the desired part of each
    Sheets within the same document cannot be displayed simultaneously. You can make and open a copy of the document, then open and view both copies as described above, but this introduces new opportunities to edit the wrong copy. You could Copy a Table from one part of the document, open Preview and go File > New from Clipboard to create a PDF copy of that table (readable, but not editable), and view the spreadsheet and pdf documents as described above.
    Tables can be rearranged, or have rows or columns (or both) hidden to permit simultaneous viewing of selected parts of both.
    A Table can have Table > Freeze Header Rows and Table > Freeze Header Columns set to keep these rows/columns visible as the rest of the table is scrolled. Or can have a range of rows (or columns) hidden to allow viewing of rows (columns) adjacent to that range visible on the same screen.
    Numbers does not support freezing of rows or columns other than Header rows and Header Columns.

    Barry

  • MacBook pro takes more than 10 minutes to start with ML ?

    My Macbook pro takes more than 10 minutes to start. I press Start and it takes more than 10 minutes before I can enter my password. Need your help !

    Sounds like time for a PRAM reset. Here's how:
    1. Power down the machine.
    2. Locate the following keys on your keyboard in preparation for Step 4:
    ‘command’ – ‘option’ – ‘P’ – ‘R’
    3. Press the ‘power on’ button.
    4. Immediately – and before the grey screen appears – hold down ‘command-option-P-R’ all together.
    5. Keep them held down until you’ve heard the start-up chime twice. After you release them you should hear it again, and hopefully your Mac will boot up as normal.

    Disconnect all devices from your computer if you have not already done so.  Restart again.  If the problem has been resolved, you had a peripheral conflict.  You will then have to reconnect the devices one at time, restart,  to locate the culprit.
    Login Items is another culprit.  Check your login items.
    System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items
    Delete/disable all you do not need or want.

    http://dolboeb.livejournal.com/2299939.html

    Not true.
    Only Photostream is allowed to take a max of 1000 photos, then they will be removed from server/icloud.
