Using iPhoto, can I create events inside another event!?!? Is there a way??

I would like to create an event inside another one that already exists, is there a way to do that?
I want to create something like:
An album called "Euro Trip" and inside this album other albuns called "Madrid, Barcelona, etc"
By choosing "Divide events", they don't stay in the same "folder".
Can anyone help me?

Post this query on the iPhoto forum. There are people who are oriented to iPhoto issues.
I don't think you can do it. The only suggestion I can think of is to start a new iPhoto Library for 'Euro Trip'.
Ciao.

How can I view my photos in "Events" like in iPhoto? How can I create events? I have 55,000 photos and 1700 events so the only way I can possibly manage my photos is using events that are one slide in size.

I have 55,000 images organized into about 1700 events. The only reasonable way to view my library is using events in iPhoto where each event has one image That still leaves 1700 images to sort through but that is a lot easier than 55,000 images. In the side bar is a folder with "iPhoto Events" but those views still show all of the slides. How can I create events and view my photos as events as in iPhoto? Events are critical for large libraries and has been my primary way to sort images.
Thanks!

I had a problem a couple of months ago when iPhotos suddenly rearranged the order of my Events (Why won't iPhoto let me arrange my photos?) . I was told "Use albums not events - events are not a good way to organize - albums and folder are designed for organisation and are very flexible".
Haha! I should have paid attention and read between the lines! My iPhotos were highly organised groupings - not according to date but the way I wanted them - and it was so easy to do! I see now that if I had them all in albums, as per the Apple Apologist suggestion, I wouldn't have this unholy mess I have been left with just to make iPhone & iCloud users happy. I am now going through Photos and making Albums (of what used to be in my Events) ... maybe I'll get this finished before they do another non user friendly update!

In iphotos, can you change photos to another event?

In iphotos, can you move photos to another event? I have a birthday party and a grandchild at the same weekend, and the photos as all mixed up.

Hi Jane
In my version of iPhoto (09) just open up iPhoto and select 'Photos' under LIBRARY on the left hand side. Get the two events in view, reduce the photo size to the minimum if needed. Just drag the photo from the wrong event to the correct one

Can't Create Event

I'm a system administrator at a school. Currently I'm in the process of testing iMovie 08, as we've purchased the 3 year maintenance plan.
When trying to import from a DV deck I'm given the error
Can't Create Event
The import was canceled. You may not have permission to write to /Volumes/Storage/iMovie Events.localized.
Indeed, I can't write to the root of /Volumes/Storage, the student test account I'm using doesn't have access. I do however have a "student work" folder that they can write to. Is there any way I can get iMovie to create iMovie Events.localized in this folder rather than on the root of the drive? If not and there isn't a workaround, I guess we'll be sticking to iMovie 6.
Furthermore, the file being created on the root level implies that it is not multi-user aware. Is this right? Can users see each other's libraries? If the answer to either of those is 'yes' than it's not suitable for this environment and we'll be using the older version.
If someone is aware of a "Deploying iMovie 08 in a Managed Setting" document or similar, I'd appreciate the tip!
thanks,

Thanks for the quick reply, Lori. Yes the account does have a Movies folder, however there is no iMovie Events folder in there. Just iMovie Projects.
As an update, I manually created the folder /Volumes/Storage/iMovie Events.localized but it still would not work until I gave everybody full access to it. Then it was fine, so at least the error message is accurate. Obviously I can't leave it open wide like that once school starts.
EDIT: Just to be clear about my setup -- and WHY it's set up how it is -- the Movies folder is in the default location relative to the user home folder. The user home is on an XServe. Hence why I'm capturing video to a secondary internal partition (/Volumes/Storage).

Can't create events with times between 10:01 and 19:59

I've recently updated to OSX 10.4.9, and now can't create events with times that start with a '1'. This only seems to be a problem on the day British Summer Time begins on 25 March.
I usually create my events in the month view, and input the start and end times by clicking in the time boxes and typing in the hours and minutes. However when I try to put in a start time of, say, 11:00, it puts in 21:00 instead. The only way around this seems to be to put in a time it will accept, like 09:00, and using the arrow keys to move it to the time I want. Or creating the events in the day view and clicking on the start time there.
Any ideas?

Looks like you have found a wee bug. I can replicate it. You could report it though OS X Feedback or better though ADC, but for the latter you have to register first.
I usually create events by double-clicking in week view; often this gets the start time right, but if not then edit the start time in the info pane. Your bug is there with events created in day and week views too.

Can't create events

Hi,
I am using iMovie 2011, on a Macbook Air late-2012 with Mountain Lion 10.8.2. I can't create events or projects in iMovie. I am getting the following error message :
Can't create event.
The import was canceled. You may not have permission to write to /iMovie Events.localized.
It seems to think that the "iMovie Events" folder is in the System root. In fact, if I create a folder in the system root (bad practice), it works, but then I can't create projects. Creating a folder called "iMovie Projects" in the system root doesn't work because iMovie can't write to the folder. Now, I don't want either of those folders in the system root, I want them in ~/myusername/Movies, like they're supposed to be. I don't know why iMovie thinks they should be in the system root. Is there any way to reset this setting? I have tried deleting iMovie pref files, reinstalling iMovie, etc. but nothing seems to work. Any ideas? Thanks,
C.

I would suggest calling Apple at the Contact Us link at the bottom right of this page. Your MBA should be still under warranty, so the call should not cost you anything (but verify).

When using iPhoto can I remove some of the default options such as faces or flagged etc. There are more bits than I need for my basic use.

Hello Susan,
Not sure if I have fully understood your question but have you tried ...
iPhoto > iPhoto help > browse help > view and organise. Perhaps this touches on some of your needs.
Usually, best results for questions come from posting to the forum directly related to the question, in this case iPhoto. That tends to find the gurus
Would you like me to ask the hosts to relocate your question?

I redeemed a giftcard in one of my accounts, and realized I wanted to redeem it in another. Is there a way I can transfer the money from one account to another, without being billed to my credit card?

You can't transfer money between accounts. You can, however, gift items by clicking the arrow to the right of the price, which will achieve the same ends. It should work for everything except rentals.

I have the same problem. Yahoo Sportacular aborts every time I try to open it. It attempts to load and then the device goes right back to the home screen. The problem started April 26 after I switched leagues from NHL to NBA. Closing all apps and Restarting doesn't solve solve the problem.
All other apps on the iPad work fine. IPad2, OS6.
Any other suggestions? I suppose I could delete the app from the iPad and try re-installing it

I've lost my photos (crashed hdd, iPhoto library on Time Machine corrupt too). Is there a way to create a picture from the thumbnail that remains in iPhoto? The quality is obviously poor, but better than nothing.

Time machine should have a good copy - how are you determining that it is corrupt
If you want the thumbnails as photos right click on the iPhoto library and make a copy of the data folder and then import it into a new iPhoto library - it contains your thumbnails

I used to be able to play music and podcasts in a single playlist (with iTunes DJ), but now can't seem to do this. Is there a way around this with iTunes 11?

You are freaken genius! Apple should update their instructions on how to give playlists, because the old way no longer works. And people tend to give gifts around this time of year. Anyway, mahalo niu loa (thank you very much)!

HT4757 Will this software make my Canon Powershot A700 work with os x 10.8.2 and iPhoto 11 v. 9.4.1? Is there any way to get my camera compatible with this computer?

Will this software make my Canon Powershot A700 work with os x 10.8.2 and iPhoto 11 v. 9.4.1? Is there any way to get my camera compatible with this computer?

First 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 Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: 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.
If that doesn't help apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Using iPhoto, can I create events inside another event!?!? Is there a way??
