What is supported in new Photos app on Mac for face detection?

In old iPhotos, there is a feature to show suggestions for faces, is there any equivalent available in Photos?

As Alley_Cat mentioned the only sort by date is in the Moments section.  If you're looking in the All Photos sections it's only by Date Added:
In the Photos mode or an album it's by Date (EXIF capture date):
In the "folder" titled iPhoto Events, which is a collection of albums representing the events from the iPhoto Library, it's by Title also.

  • New Photos app on Mac: how to add location data?

    The recent OSX upgrade migrated my photo library from iPhoto to Photos. On iPhoto i had carefully added location data to all my photos, which is still accessible. But how do I add location data to new downloaded photos? I am talking about from a camera with no GPS facility. I have queried this on the Help menu but it is not clear. Anyone help?

    I am talking about from a camera with no GPS facility.
    Photos can use GPS data, if the photos have them, but it does not support to add locations to your photos.
    I hope, the next update will add this necessary feature.
    Send feedback with a feature request:   Apple - Photos - Feedback
    For the time being, you have to add GPS coordinates to the photos before importing them to Photos.
    You could, for example, first import to iPhoto, add the locations, batch change the titles and captions, do all the things that are not yet supported in the new Photos, then export the photos from iPhoto and import them to Photos.
    Or use the free exiftool, if you like the Terminal.
    See:  http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/exiftool_pod.html#geotagging_exampl es
    To install exiftool: http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/%7Ephil/exiftool/install.html
    Other convenient apps are Jetphoto Studio, Geotagalog, houdahGeo, there are many more ..
    I use Jetphoto Studio, but it is not free.
    If you updated iPhpto to version 9.6.1 before the update, you can still use iPhoto.
    Just drag it back to the Dock from the Applications folder.
    If you not yet have 9.6.1, update as described here:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
    The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.

    There's a system component that 's missing that Photos is trying to use.  You'll need to boot into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down) and reinstall the system.

  • Will the new photos app and icloud photos library support all formats of pics and videos from my iphoto library?

    I will be migrating my whole 200gb iPhoto library 9.5.1 mavericks over to Yosemite iPhoto 9.6.1 and then migrate to the new photos app and hopefully to the icloud.photos online. Does this all support all of my formats such as AVI videos in my iPhoto library. I don't want to lose those through migration. 

    I have this 31% issue too - when I attempt to update my iPhoto library to the new Photo app.
    I have a few libraries - one on my mac, and two on a NAS. I access the NAS via wifi.
    The mac based library did update, but the two network albums have yet to be successfully migrated over to Photo.
    It's driving me insane!!!

  • What exactly is the difference between the new photos app for mac and iPhoto? i'm very confused...

    Ever since i've bought my macbook pro i used iPhoto to organize my photos. Now apple added this new photos app and i don't really understand what is it meant for? can someone please explain me the difference? I'm very confused about the purposes of both apps....

    Now apple added this new photos app and i don't really understand what is it meant for? can someone please explain me the difference? I'm very confused about the purposes of both apps....
    Photos is a completely new designed photo application, designed for Yosemite and the MacOS X versions to come. Many differences are under the hood. It uses the new system libraries and frameworks for more efficient image processing on the new powerful macs, like the mac pro, it is extensible by app extensions, if other developers will add functionality, and most important, it brings integration with iCloud Photo Library. With Photos you can store your photo library in iCloud and sync it across all devices.
    Some features are still missing however, and you can continue to use iPhoto, if you like. Or create a small Photos library for testing and explore Photos, while keeping your main libraries in iPhoto.

  • What happens to iPhoto and Aperture access if I do the latest update to iMovie which supports the upcoming Photos app?

  • Will Aperture support new Photo app's library?

    New Photo app (comes with OS X 10.10.3 beta) has changed iPhoto library name and structure, since Aperture uses the same photo library as iPhoto uses, does that mean Aperture will no longer work when OS X 10.10.3 is officially released to public?
    Will existing Aperture's filters be compatible with new Photo app's editing function?

    You can open the versions with the filename extensions "migratedphotolibrary", e,g, iPhoto Library iPhoto.migratedphotolibrary.
    While you are experimenting, make sure the filename extensions will show for all your photo libraries, so you know which version you are dealing with.
    If you try to browse the main "Photos.library" in Aperture or iPhoto, those applications will simply open the last library they could open, and if you have deleted this library, Aperture or iPhoto will come up empty.

  • Using the new Photos app on multiple devices - confusion!

    I find the recent way ios/Photos handles photos quite confusing. I am not too concerned about not having a Camera Roll, but seeing how not having this creates strange behavior when editing/deleting photos, I can see how the Camera Roll is definitely necessary or the whole thing needs revamped to handle things better.
    Here's my set up:
    iMac with iPhoto
    iPhone 5s with the new Photos app
    iPad Mini with the new Photos app
    The one things I DO like is that whenever I take a photo (or upload in the case of my iMac), the photo is duplicated across all devices. That means I could take a photo on my iPhone and then edit it on my iPad Mini which has a bigger screen. (Well, so I thought..but read below.) Yes, you could do this with Photo Stream, but having all photos in one place is a bit easier to remember and find. I also like that when I delete the photo on the device that I took it on, all photos on the other two devices are also deleted. Easy. Thanks.
    But that is where the ease of use ends.
    If I delete the photo on any other two devices (i.e. the devices that I did NOT take the photo on), it only deletes on the devices which I didn't take the photo on. In other words, it leaves the photo on the device which I originally took the photo on.
    To add to the confusion... if I edit the original photo, the edits do not get duplicated to the other devices! I see the original photo on the devices with which I did NOT take the photo but the edited one is on the original device I took it on.
    Let's add even MORE confusion....if I want to edit the photo on a device it was not taken on, I then get a notice that it has to be Duplicated before I can edit it. Well, okay, I do that and then edit it. However, I now have the original showing up twice on the device it was originally taken on...the original photo and the now duplicated photo--it's the EXACT same photo since no edits get carried over from the other device.
    I believe all of this is because of what happened when ios 9 combined the functions of the Camera Roll and Photo Stream together. It exhibits both behaviors but since you cannot be sure which photo was taken on which device, you have less understanding what will happen when you try to delete a photo or edit it.
    Here's the key headache....What happens if I want to make sure a photo is deleted from ALL my devices and I don't remember which device I took the photo on? I will have to check every device just to be sure! I can't even open up iPhoto on my Mac and delete it from the Photo Stream album because it will remain on the original device. So, I have to check all devices and also iPhoto on my Mac for good measure in case I actually uploaded a photo there--which I do since I am scanning in old photos.
    Key headache #2...you end up with duplicates of the photo if you edit the photo on any device on which it was not taken on. You also get different versions of the photo. You end up not knowing which photo was the original. To be sure to have all edited photos eventually on you iMac, you'll need to sync all devices physically to iPhoto.
    Who has time to track all this?
    What should happen is this...all of the photos, including their edits, should sync exactly on all devices. My Recently Added should look exactly the same across all devices and carry over any edits...now that is what I would call Continuity and Handoff! But as it stands, we don't have anything close to this...is more like Pandemonium and MixUp!
    This is really a mess and way too confusing to keep track of. I can only hope this get resolved when Photos on the Mac is released.

    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • How to create borders and watermarks in the new photos app?

    In iPhoto we could create borders and watermarks amongst other features when going to the Export Option under File.
    Does anyone know if/how we can do both in the new Photos App?
    If not, what's the next best option for creating borders and watermarks, and does Photos support plug ins?
    This is my first question of what Im guessing will be a series in getting to know and utilize Apples forceful technology.

    You're not missing anything.  You're correct in your finding that adding/modifying location data in the new Photos application has been removed. 
    With that said, in a proactive manor you can submit feedback (do it at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html since there is no section for Photos yet) and request that location modification be added.  The more people who do it, the more likely it is to be added.

  • Flickr integration in the new Photos App in OS X 10.10.3

    I had been looking forward to trying out the new Photos app with the newest version of OS X.
    Now it has arrived and it is alright, for what it does, but it's not going to be taking over my photo processing.
    The one bit where I feel seriously let down is the Flickr integration - in this area it seems to be a big step backwards from iPhoto.
    Has anyone else though been struggling to understand how to access Flickr properly through it?
    I can upload photos, but I cannot open my Flickr albums to look in there, as I could with iPhoto. Or is there a way of doing this that I am missing?
    The upshot of this is that I cannot use my Flickr feed as a screensaver on my mac at the moment... There are hundreds of curated photos that make me happy, of my friends, family, nice memories, trips that I have taken, in an album on Flickr for this very purpose.
    Previously I simply set my mac at work, and my one at home, to use the Flickr album as the source for my screensaver, but now that the Flickr album doesn't appear for me in iPhoto, this is not possible.
    Has anyone else run across this? Has anyone else come up with a solution?
    (Also did anyone else's inner cynic connect this and the screen asking them to sign up for the iCloud photos solution, and if so, did you silence that cynic or give it free reign?)
    -crossposted from the Flickr support forums at the suggestion of users there

    Okay, the answer for the time-being seems to be to keep using iPhoto for this task.
    iPhoto is still in my applications folder (but for how long).
    So, I can use iPhoto for managing my Flickr and Photos for everything else.
    That's the theory anyway and I'm going to give it a go until and unless a better option presents itself, please do let me know if you have one.

  • Do I have to use iCloud with new Photos app?

    I see that Apple has eliminated iPhoto and is going to require me to update to the new Photos app. When I read what Apple has to say about the update/change I am worried that I have to put my photos on the iCloud...  I read quotes like "If you shoot a snapshot, slo-mo, or selfie on your iPhone, it’s automatically added to iCloud Photo Library as well" and "iCloud Photo Library automatically keeps all your photos in the cloud" directly from the Apple website. I absolutely do NOT want my photos on the iCloud. I currently take photos on my phone and upload them onto my Mac when I want to, and I want to continue to do this. So I'm trying hard NOT to update my software until I understand better what the new Photos app will require of me. Any help is appreciated.
    Update is OS X 10.10.3, Photos app

    I see that Apple has eliminated iPhoto and is going to require me to update to the new Photos app.
    For the time being is iPhoto still working very well with the latest release of MacOS X 10.10.3.  You can try out the new Photos for Mac app, while you are still keeping your main Photos library in iPhoto.
    With MacOS X 10.10.3 you need iPhoto 9.6.1.  Apple does not sell iPhoto any longer, so you can neither update it nor purchase it. But you can reinstall, if you already own  iPhoto and it is associated with your Apple ID.
    See this user Tip:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities

    You may need to unhide your Purchases, if you do not see iPhoto on the Purchases page when you sign into the AppStore with your AppleID:

  • New Photos App - Can't Import Video from Digital Camera

    Hi, everyone.  I just "upgraded" to the new Photos app, but I'm finding that I can no longer import video from my Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5.  With iPhoto, this was never a problem.  All of the old videos I imported from this camera are there after migration, and are playable within the program.  Photos import just fine.  However, I get an error message for the videos (below).  I don't understand why I'm not able to import anything new from that device.
    I opened iPhoto to attempt an import and it worked just fine.  Any help is appreciated.  I'm running Yosemite 10.10.3 on an iMac 2010.  Thanks.

    Hi there Jermaster
    iMovie 3 does not support the camera you have. iM is a Digital Video (DV) editor. Cameras that record to mini DV tape is what is required. IM 3 does not support USB either. You need Firewire. The camera you have is a flash based Hard Drive camera. To get the video off this camera you'll need iM08 or 09.
    But it doesn't appear that the computer you have will support either of these versions.
    See below ...

  • ICloud storage for new photos app

    iI've just updated Yosemite and the new photos app is asking me to upgrade my storage, now if I do this will it upload all my photos on my iMac to the cloud including external drives connected to my iMac?

    Are you certain?
    From Get started with Photos for OS X - Apple Support
    "If you change your System Photo Library, the contents of this new library will be merged with the contents already in iCloud."
    But presumably this merge is two-way i.e. the contents already in iCloud will then be merged into the new System Photo Library? It's not clear, but that's how I understand it.
    In any case, http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/comments/announcing_powerphotos may well offer library merging in a post 1.0 release.

  • With new Photos app, I can no longer drag and drop photos into other applications as I did in the past with iPhoto.

    With the new Photos app, I can no longer drag and drop photos into other applications as I did with iPhoto.  For instance, I have a photo collage app that in the past, I could just drag in the photos I wanted to include.  Now, I can DRAG the photos, but they do not DROP.  So, I have to go through the export process.  It is tedious.  What am I missing?  Where can I turn on the drag and drop feature for Photos?

    YOu're not looking in the right palce. That's inside the iPhoto Application.
    You need to look inside the iPhoto Library
    As I sid above:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there

    Try this fix discovered by User photosb189:
    From Finder, hold down the option key on your keyboard and click on the Go menu at the top of the screen
    Select Library from the drop down menu
    Then navigate to Application Support > iLifeAssetManagement > assets
    Right click on the 'sub' folder and choose Compress
    Drag the resulting zip file to your Desktop (as a backup)
    Go to your System Preferences and choose iCloud
    Turn OFF the iCloud Photos option
    Go back to Library > Application Support and DELETE the iLifeAssetManagement folder
    Now, in System Preferences, turn the iCloud Photos option ON
    iPhoto should now be able to launch. Give it enough time to re-download your Photo Stream content. if you are missing any of your My Photo Stream photos (more than 30 days old), unzip the sub folder on your desktop and drag that into iPhoto.
