Use of detail levle maps in photo book

I used the feature to drop pins to identify places in the map function. For example, I dropped pins on hiking trail points, at the most detail level. The pins show on the maps, when viewed in the Places section of the Library.
However, when I select Map layouts in the photo book area, I have not been able to see the same level of detail for a map page in the photo book.
The photo book area will only show the closest city to the trail area. I want to see the selected pin drops on maps in my photo book.
How do I show detail maps in on a photo book page?

I find the same thing - very frustrating. Thanks for suggestion to feedback to Apple. I have. Would be great to see the maps being more flexible in other themes and far more detail - my map of London was a red dot on a green background! Not great after spending hours on all my photos adding in very specific locations of where the photos were taken (no GPS on camera!).
Let's hope we see an update soon

  • IPhoto crashes after added map to photo book

    Hi,
    I have been creating a photo book in iPhoto (the current version) which I've spent a fair bit of time working on and customising over the last couple of weeks. I had pretty much completed this book when I decided to add a map to one of the pages (the bright green map). It added ok, but when I went to scale it to zoom out a bit it kept crashing iPhoto. I instead tried choosing one of the other themed maps and zoomed out to the distance I wanted. I then thought I would try go back to the bright green map to see if it would work now, it didn't and iPhoto crashed. Now, every time I open iPhoto and click on my photo book it crashes iPhoto without loading the book at all. I can't access or edit the photo book since making this change to the map.
    Any support would be greatly appreciated as I've put a fair bit of time into this photo book and am hoping I haven't lost this for good. Even if I am able to just get the page layouts back if possible would be great.
    Thanks!
    Dan

    One of the map layouts is causing these crashes. The problem is, that you cannot remove the map, since you cannot open the book for editing.
    See this discussion
    iPhoto crashing one specific Book Project
    Your only hope to save your book is, to restore your iPhoto library from the most recent Time Machine backup you made, before you added the map.
    Otherwise delete the book to make the library usable again and start over. You can probably not select the book in the source list to delete it. create two more empty books and drag them directly before and after the broken book. Then select the range of all three books and delete them.

  • RAW Images and Photo Books

    Anybody tried using RAW images to build a photo book? I shoot my pics in combined RAW/jpeg formats - the jpegs are low res, so I would prefer to use the higher quality RAW images in making my book. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

    You can’t.
    RAW is a total sensor dump from the camera. The only thing you can do is process your RAW into good quality jpegs (or tiff or whatever) and use those. You cant even Print a RAW.\
    When you import a RAW to iPhoto the app automatically creates a JPEG preview of the File. That makes the whole RAW+jpeg shooting rather pointless.

  • Creating photo book on iPad

    Hello,
    I am getting the impression that I can't use my new  iPad for creating photo books from my snapfish/shutterfly accounts?  One of the big reasons I got an iPad was to continue my hobby of making photo books online, having the photo books be created by snapfish, and then paying for them to be created and sent to me. 
    Do u know of any other way around this? I feel like an idiot for not investing this before purchasing an iPad, and hope that I don't need to buy a lap top/desk top.
    Thanks,
    Molly

    Hi Molly,
    Adobe makes several iPad apps for working with photos but none currently for creating the type of photobooks which are commercially printed and mailed to you. Adobe Lightroom 4 which was just released has features for creating photo books of this type, but that runs on a computer not on an iPad obviously. Adobe makes a program called Adobe Revel, which allows you to upload your photos to a cloud service to be able to view all your photos on all your devices (iPad, iPhone, Mac, and eventually on Windows computers). Adobe Revel, like Lightroom, allows you to apply non-destructive global edits and effects to your images and supports sending out to Email, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Flickr. I'm not aware of any apps that allow you to do what you are seeking, you might check with Snapfish and Shutterfly to see if they have recommendations.

  • How to print a Photo Book to an online service?

    How do I go about ordering a photo book from any of the on line services when the program will only save my created book in the pse file format and none of the services recognize that format.  I have tried several services and can't fine one that will allow me to upload my files in the proper way.  The services don't allow me the creativity that I bought the PSElements for.  Since losing Kodak I am stuck.  Will Elements 11 solve this problem?  I would rather not have to relearn the whole program again at this time.  Thanks for any help you can give.

    Basically, you have to create the Photo Book in the format of a print service (which print service you have availble depends on the version of Photoshop Elements you are using). If you create a Photo Book using the "Print Locally" template, you will not be able to send it to a print service because it will be in the PSE format. For PSE11, the online printer we use is shutterfly.
    With a PSE file, there is a companion folder that has a PSD file for each page. These can generally be used by print services, or they can be convered to a supported file format with Process Multiple Files under the File menu.

    Anyhow, try a different browser. What were you using?

  • How can I publish a photo book using an iPad

    Can someone walk me through publishing a hard back photo book using an iPad .I have iPhoto app installed

    I don't believe you can create and publish a book directly from the iPhoto for iOS app. You can create a journal which can be published to iCloud, but that's the only sharing feature I can find. There may be third-party software that can do this; the HP Photobook App has been mentioned, but I know nothing about it. Otherwise, if you want to create a book, I think you'll have to transfer your photos to a computer and use software there (iPhoto for Mac OS X, if you have a Mac).
    Regards.

    I get this pop up when trying to create a photo book through the iPhoto store.  
    "Some or all of the photos you selected were downloaded from your published albums. You can only view these photos. To use them in an album or a slideshow or project, you must import them to your photo library."
    The photos I have selected have already been imported so how and why do I do it all over again?
    What do they mean by published albums?  I categorize them into photo albums for organizational purposes after I import them from my camera or phone. So why can't I put them into a book now?
    I have over 400 photos selected for a photo book for my child's graduation gift so how can I tell which photos I have to do this to?
    Please help. Any insight wouyld be appreciated.
    Confused and frustrated...

    Give this a try:  apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.

  • Adding places to map in a photo book

    I'm having trouble adding some places to a map of the Grand Canyon area in a photo book I'm creating, and I'm looking for some help.
    I can create a map that will show some of the places we went, like Las Vegas and Sedona, but when I click on the design tab for the map and try to add some other places, it doesn't work. I can actually add a name to my list of places, like Monument Valley, but when I click on the box next to the place, nothing happens and it's not added to my map. I don't know why it would add the place to my list but not allow me to select it so I can add it to my map. Thanks for any help.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    when I click on the design tab
    You're referring to the map page of a book? Are you clicking on the "+" button to allow you to add a new location?

  • I created a book in iBooks Author using the Photo Book template. When I rotate to portrait orientation, the photo or widget disappears and a table of contents appears with only the interactive media showing.

    I created a book in iBooks Author using the Photo Book template. When I rotate to portrait orientation, the photo or widget disappears and a table of contents appears with only the interactive media showing.

    Thanx for the prompt response, KT. I have indeed seen that thread, only just after I posted the question.
    I have spent hours on the phone with what I now know is a call center in Texas on this question.
    I think Apple could be a little more "hands on" with iBooks Author users, and it should also be pointed out that landscape photos will not display in portrait mode.
    In my case, I used gallery widgets to display vertical photos, since they look better in portrait mode.
    But instead of simply rotating, the page disappears and a TOC of interactive media appears. The gallery behaves as expected when tapped. This is not what I expected, but since the gallery works, I can live with it.
    Right now I have "tickets" telling me to "fix" this "problem or to disable portrait mode.
    I don't want to disable portrait mode.
    Will Apple accept the books if I tell them this is not an "error?"

    David, have you enabled the "Autoflow" options? There are settings behind the cogwheel, that will automatically place unused images onto new pages. If you only want to select a few images from a large project, disable these two options:
    Or start your book froman album, that only contains a selection of your images, rather than from the whole project.

  • Using text in photo books

    I'm making a photo book and find the text options limiting.  is there anyway  - even with a 3rd party ap - that you can add text over a photo?

    You can use one of these image editing apps to add text directly onto an image.
    Some Image Editors That Support layers:
    Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac - $79
    Rainbow Painter - $30
    Imagerie - $38
    Acorn - $50
    Pixelmator - $60 
    Seashore - Free
    GIMP for Mac - Free
    Xee 2.1 - free
    Or, if you have one of the image editors listed above or Pages you could create a custom page according to this tutorial: iP11 - Creating a Custom Page, with the Theme's Background for an iPhoto Book
