Suggestion to iPhoto choosing photo enhancement

In my normal flow to use iPhoto:
import photo from camera
choose photo and delete blur, duplicate and blinking eye
rename event
share to facebook
I found the most slow part is choosing photo. iPhoto can open a photo in full screen and just press right arrow to next photo, but it is notifiable slow if press left arrow to previous photo. and it cannot place two photo side by side compare.
I suggest iPhoto should have ability to help us compare similar photo and delete undesire one quickly.

iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback is the route to the developers.
That said, Select two photos and click on the Edit button. What happens?

IPhoto Choose Photo AppleScript

There has to be a simple answer to this question, but I can't find it anywhere.
When writing AppleScripts for the Finder, there is a "choose file" command which opens a file select dialog.
I'm trying to write a script for iPhoto, but I can't find an equivalent command to open the iPhoto photo select dialog. Is there one?
Thanks in advance for your help!

I knew it would be a simple answer!
I'm working on an export script for iPhoto that will eventually do a bunch of things, but at this stage I'm just playing around with manipulating some of the data like titles, comments etc., and I was just trying to make it all work from within AppleScript.
I also tried Automator, trying to pass the selected photos from the "Ask For Photos" dialog to an AppleScript. I tried creating an application that does nothing but "Ask For Photos" and then using that in a script, too. In both cases, the script refused to manipulate (or even just display) any of the titles, comments, dates or anything else from the chosen photos.
Everything I've tried to do with photos I've manually selected in iPhoto has worked, so I'll just have to do it that way. It's no big deal, I just wanted to see if I could do it this other way.
Thanks for your quick answer!

Hi there,
I've just joined google for my email and like you wanted to sync my contacts and calendar.
I had a couple of problems but have ironed them out below.
First....Google have a 'google sync' program that is advertised as syncing both your contacts and calendar. This has not worked for me. I can sync my calendar no problem at all, but it hasn't worked for my contacts. On looking across the google firums I am by no means alone and indeed google employees who post there have acknowledged the problem too,
So how to get round it and sync your calendar and contacts?
For calendar go to this link
http://www.google.com/mobile/products/sync.html#p=nokia_smart
Follow the instructions and tell the Mail for Exchange program NOT to sync your contacts. Like I said, although it's supposed to I couldn't get it to work despite a reformat of the device twice! A google employee on the forums even went out and bought the 5800 and tried to get it to work as he has noted that people are having problems. Hopefully it'll be addressed in the future.
For syncing your contacts, go to this page
http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=98230&topic=15015
All the details for contacts sync are laid out for the pages of setup you have for a S60 3rd edition device. If, like me you have a S60 5th edition device, the details are all there but are requested in a different order. Have a good scan of the pages and you WILL find all the info you need.
Both methods work great for me and I'm delighted.
Hope this maybe helps
If my post has helped you in anyway, please press the 'kudos' button.
Thanks

No changes were made. I saw in one of the threads where someone said to repair the database(which didn't work) or Rebuild the database(which did work). Thanks to one all for the support.

Try designating a System Photo Library. Then your apps will use that.

Help! In iphoto my photos do not appear just a blank dated square. Somehow I messed up when trying to send a photo via email.I cannot not see any but 4 photos.I tried all of the solutions that Apple suggested. Somehow I think that i am trying to send ALL my photos in an email.How do i unhide all of my photos?

Did you launch iPhoto with the Option(Alt) and Commnad keys held down like Terence suggested? If you did it properly you will get this window:
The second option is the one you want to run.

IPhoto vs Photos in iOS 8

I am trying to regain some storage on my 16Gig iPad Mini.
I have many pictures in photos I want to delete. However, when I choose "select" and choose photos to delete, the "trash can" is greyed out. I can't figure out how to get rid of these old photos that I have backed up on my computer.
I thought, "Maybe I can delete them in iPhoto?" However, when I tried to open iPhoto, I get the message, "iPhoto is no longer supported in iOS 8. Migrate photos to 'Photos?'"
Should I "migrate" my iPhoto photos to "Photos?" Will I be able to delete them?

If you want to be able to access the photos from iPhoto, migrate. iPhoto is now obsolete and you cannot use it any longer.
But read this first: Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8
And also: Get help finding your Photos in iOS 8
A common reason for being unable to delete photos from your iPhone might be, that the photos have been synced to the device using iTunes. To remove synced photos from iOS devices, simply san again with iTunes, but deselect all events and albums in iPhoto, see this link:

IPhoto - Hidden Photos - Events Thumbnail Display Bug

_*iPhoto - Hidden Photos - Events Thumbnail Display Bug*_
iPhoto 08 contains a bug affecting the display of images that the user has marked as "hidden." Specifically, when the user toggles the View-Hidden Photos menu option, the Library-Events thumbnail view does not refresh quickly or reliably to show or hide Events containing "hidden photos."
Sometimes all "hidden" photos remain visible when they should be hidden.
Sometimes all "hidden" photos remain INvisible when they should be visible.
This affects the Event thumbnail "key photo" if this photo was designated as hidden.
This also affects any hidden Event photos when the user "skims" over an Event thumbnail to preview its contents.
The issue is isolated to Events thumbnails. The problem does not exist:
a) while browsing thumbnails inside a specific Event.
b) while browsing photos in Library-Photos.
c) while browsing photos in an Album.
_*"Fixes" that do NOT work:*_
Software updates... I have the latest version of OSX 10.5.2 and the latest version of iPhoto 08, including all the recent security and graphics system updates as of 02/16/2008.
Maintenance... The issue is NOT resolved by rebuilding the database, rebuilding icons, or deleting the iPhoto preferences file. The issue can be reproduced in a separate user account after creating a new event in an otherwise empty iPhoto database.
After much tinkering around, the following is the closest I've come to a
_*TEMPORARY WORKAROUND:*_
To *NOT DISPLAY* hidden images, go to the View menu and make sure Hidden Photos *is not* checked. Restart iPhoto, and the hidden images should now be invisible.
To DISPLAY hidden images, go to the View menu and make sure Hidden Photos is checked. While the hidden images are now visible elsewhere, they may still be invisible in Events thumbnails, so restart iPhoto, and then wait about 10 seconds for the Events view to refresh with all the hidden thumbnail images now visible.
If after carefully reading this you feel you have a definitive solution, please post a reply with your suggestions. Otherwise, please post to confirm if you can reproduce the problem on your computer running iPhoto 08 on Leopard. If so, please also file an official bug report with Apple. The more people report this, the faster we'll get it fix.

My Acrobat Pro 9 has also this bug. I am using XP SP2. I have reported this bug at Adobe web site many times. I wrote to the Adobe customer care. I wrote about this on many different forums and I was hopping an update with this bug fixed. I installed all updates till now bu the problem still exists. I do not know why Adobe is not caring about this stupid bug. It is really, really annoying. In my experience with Adobe Acrobat for about 10 years, Acrobat version 9 is the worst version I ever worked with. There are a lot of glitches and bugs in it, expecially with fonts, web version creation, password protection encryption etc etc.
If you find any fix please post back on this forum.
Many thanks,

Apple tv can't find my photos since I switched from iPhoto to Photos

I recently switched from iPhoto to Photos on my imac which is running Yosemite 10.10.6. and since then my Apple TV version 2 can't find my photos. Also, the taskbar on Photos is nothing like they show in the description.

Have you changed your Home sharing settings in iTunes from iPhoto to Photos (iTunes > File > Home Sharing > Choose Photos...)

IPhoto to Photos problems

I have used Rapidweaver for five years without problem until I upgraded iPhoto to Photos. On correcting a typing error on a page I re-published and got a "Photo Export Errors" message- error exporting image thumbnail (20 times!!). The published page is scrambled. Help! Any ideas???!!!

Thanks again TD
I will check on the formating when I get home, I am pretty sure that I haven't used any no-ascii characters, but will double check.
Before I download iphoto library manager, I just wanted to report an interesting experiment that I tried last night that may point in a different direction:
I keep my iphoto library on a second internal HD, so I thought I would just try making a complete copy of my iphoto library onto my desktop. Once I did this, I started up iPhoto with alt and choose the desktop version of the library and all worked perfectly, my iphoto albums showed instantly in my photo tab in itunes when I selected to sync with iphoto.
My next move was to rename my old library and then copy my desktop version into the folder where the old library is. Once I did this the problem was back again.
I have no reason to believe that it is the second disc that is causing the problem, as that is where I have always kept my itunes and iphoto libraries and they have worked without problem.
(As I am writing this, it dawned upon me that I missed one important test, I should have tried the old library after I had renamed it, but stil in the same place.)
I am now suspecting that the problem may be linked to an external drive that I addded to the system at Christmas. This was a WD My Book which I use for backup, the link being that I use the software that came with it to do autobackups that includes my iphoto library folder. I am wondering if this software does something to the folder.
Thoughts welcome.

Where and how does iPhoto keep photos?

I am in the process of scanning and editing about 1000 old Kodakchrome slides taken over the past 40+ years.
My scans go into Photoshop Elements for tarting up and then are stored in various folders with appropriate names. After that I import them into iPhoto 5 in order to assemble them into albums, slides shows or whatever.
Questions: 1. Does iPhoto actually import and keep a copy of each image file? 2. Can I safely delete the folders I have used for the original and processed scans? 3. If I back-up the iPhotolibraries to an external hard drive, I am safe - I won't lose my pictures?
I am sure that these basic questions have been answered by various Mac gurus a zillion times before but I found it pretty daunting to read through the 20+ pages shown in discussions. One has to admit the contents of the iPhoto folders and files is all pretty mysterious!
Any help or direction will be most gratefully received.

Hi David,
A little more info for you...
--First thing to know and remember is this...Do not drag any images, folder of images into the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Images have to be imported into iPhoto within the application. Do not scan images and save them into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Save them to another location such as the Pictures folder or even the desktop. You can then import them into iPhoto.
--You have a folder of images on your hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Drag the folder of images into an open iPhoto Library window and the folder of photos will be copied into the library, resulting in a new roll with the name of the folder. You now have two copies of those photos, the ones in iPhoto's database and the ones on your desktop. You can keep the ones on your desktop that you just imported as backup or you can delete that folder.
-- you scan a picture/pictures and save it in a folder. You cannot scan directly into iPhoto or the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder.
You want all your photos in iPhoto so you import them into iPhoto.
Now you have two copies of that picture/pictures, so you can delete the originals that were in the scanned folder and keep the one/ones that were imported into iPhoto.
-- You download pictures from your camera into iPhoto.
There is now one copy of each of the pictures.
You want to change something about a picture you imported, such as
cropping it or changing the size, or changing the orientation.
Once you do that to a picture, you now have two copies of the picture
in iPhoto, the original and the edited one. The edited one will be in the library organize view. The original is packed away in an Original folder in your iPhoto Library folder under the date of the roll. You can always revert to the original by control clicking on the photo and choose "revert to orginal" You will not have this choice if you used iPhoto Diet to get rid of the Originals.
(a quick note on cropping within iPhoto...when you are in edit mode, you automatically will be in the crop mode with cross hairs to highlight the crop area. To finish cropping you must click the crop button and then go back to library view and your cropped picture will be there.
3.You want to use Photoshop or another graphic program to edit a picture in your iPhoto library.
You can open up prefs for iPhoto and choose "when double clicking on
photo ..do" choose "other" and select Photoshop. Now you can edit all
pictures in your iPhoto library in PhotoShop by double clicking. If you save the photo with the same name and as a flattened file it will be saved right into iPhoto and you will see the changes. If you don't want to save it into iPhoto then do a "save as" and save to the desktop. You will then have the original photo still in iPhoto and your new edited photo on the desktop.
Or, with iPhoto open, you can drag a picture from the library window
to your desktop (you see a + sign on the pic you are dragging). You now
have two of the same picture, one in the iPhoto library and one on your desktop. You can open up the one on your desktop in any graphic program and work on it. The one in iPhoto stays the same. You can also share/export the picture/pictures to your desktop or folder to work on them or do batch processing, etc. You will still have the originals in your iPhoto Library.
Or, you can open up the ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/folders and option drag any
picture out of the folder to your desktop. Notice that you will see a plus sign while dragging the photo. This is copying the file to your desktop
I would advise anyone not to do this as they might forget to use the option key and drag the photo out. Next time you open iPhoto the photo will be missing.

HT201317 how do I drag photos from iphoto to photo stream?

how do I drag photos from iphoto to photo stream?

Simply select the photo or photos you wish to add to photo stream from the album you are viewing and drag them onto the photo stream listing under the 'recent' heading on the left-hand side of iPhoto when you see a blue box surrounding the listing drop the photos you have dragged.
Alternatively, select the photos and use the 'share' button in the bottom right corner of iPhoto and choose photo stream from the list that appears.

Bug!cannot choose photo to mail in album

Bug！cannot choose photo to mail in album

I can confirm that this happens +only when in Edit mode+.
It works exactly as it should in Organisation mode.
I'm not sure it's a bug. It strikes me as intentional. After all I can't drag anything to another Album (i.e Organise) when I'm in edit mode.
I don't recall this being a feature of iPhoto 08.
