When I edit and/or delete photos from an album in iPhoto is there a way to make that what happens in the folder in finder?

When I edit and/or delete photos from an album in iPhoto is there a way to make that what happens in the folder in finder? I am new to Mac. I've updated the operating system and iPhoto.

If your iPhoto Advanced preference pane is setup like this
all photos you import into the library are COPIED into the library.  Thus those photos in the folders outside of iPhoto are redundant and can be deleted to save space on your hard drive. There no need to keep those copies in the folders.
If you do have your advance preferences set as shown above you can access your photos for use outside of iPhoto according to the following User Tip by Terence Devlin which is the best treatise on how to access photos (for use outside of iPhoto):  How to Access Files in iPhoto.  Otherwise you access your photos from within iPhoto.

  • How to delete photos from synced albums?

    Hi,
    after a holiday I sync all photos taken with my iPad 1. I want to delete bad photos and resync them with my PC. But I can't delete photos from my iPad/iPhone. Is there any possibility to delete single photos?
    Thanks

    You can't delete photos synced from your computer directly on your phone, they are deleted by changing your photo sync selection when connected to your computer's iTunes.
    You can remove all photos that you synced from your computer by selecting and syncing just an empty folder.
    If you want to keep some of them on your phone then you will either need to use a third-party app to copy them back to your computer so that you can then include them in the photo sync ; or download a third-party photo management app on your phone such as Photo Manager Pro which you can copy the photos that you want to keep to (that app can copy photos to/from the Photos app and your computer) and then sync an empty folder to Photos

    I am trying to copy 3 photos from an album in iPhoto to my iPhone. I have tried to move them to PhotoStream. I "select" the photos in the Album and then click on PhotoStream in the "Share" menu at the bottom of the screen. Nothing happens.  I have also tried emailing them tyo myself but iPhoto won't send the email. It tells me it doesn't recognize my ID and password. My operating is Lion on an iMac.

    Thank you for responding to my question, above, this morning. And thank you for the link about PhotoStream. It was helpful in understanding how Photostream works, but, unfortunately, doesn't really reference my problem since it assumes that the photos were originated on one of my  Apple devices. The photos I want to copy to my iPhone are in an album on iPhoto but I had originally downloaded them from my camera to my iMac then moved them to the album. The confusing thing for me is that they are 3 of a dozen photos takern over a period of 12 years on different digital cameras (two were taken on film and later scanned and eventually moved to the album in iPhoto) and all but three of the photos moved to photostream and are on my iPhone. It is those three, which were all taken on digital cameras and moved to the album, which I can't get to move to Photostream.

  • Hi guys. Just a quick question. My wife has a Mac Book Pro and when she is browsing the web she can use a two fingered gesture to go back to her previous page (by swiping from right to left). Is there any way to set that up on my iPad Mini. Many thanks.

    Not in the Safari browser she can't. That is not supported on the iPad. There are other mobile browsers that do have that functionality - one is iCab Mobile.

  • HT4528 delete photos from an album

    How do you delete photos from an album which is not part of the camera roll?

    You'll have to that on the computer you use to sync your photos with. After you deleted or deselected the photos or folders that you don't want anymore in the photo pane in iTunes, syncing will remove them from your phone.

  • My 4s crashed and Apple replaced it while I was out of town. I used it for a week without downloading my old information. When I backed up my old information it erased all my new information from a weeks work. Is there a way to recover that information?

    It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
    Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

  • When I downloaded pics from my camera to iPhoto it put them in a file that was named with the download date. Can I do that with Aperture (as the download default)?

    I recently replaced iPhoto with Aperture. When I download pics into Aperture they are place in a file that's called "Untitled Project." When I downloaded pics from my camera to iPhoto they were put in a file that was named with the download date (YYYY MM DD). Can I do that with Aperture (as the download default)?

    My apologies.
    When I import I have an Applescript that stores the images in a year month day folder-project structure so I haven;t used the default Aperture behavior in some time. When I tested it out to reply to you I was doing it from the file system and it picked up the date from the folder.  mea culpa.
    Anyway the closest you can get is to have Aperture split the images by date. IN the Aperture preferences set the project split granularity
    Autosplit into Projects
    and then in the import window set
    Automatically split projects.
    This will give projects named Month Day, Year (ie: Mar 13, 2012) there is no way to change this
    As I said I have a script that runs on import and sets up a structure like:
    Of course many here will say not to name projects this way, that Aperture has the ability to sort by date and you're better off naming projects something more meaningful. For them that is true and it might be for you also. For me I like to store my masters this way, it works for the way I shoot.

  • In contacts there is the possibility to add a new event, as the birthdays, but they do not appear in iCal. Is there any way to make that possible? It is normal to have a person with his birthday, anniversary and others key dates you want to link to him.

    In contacts there is the possibility to add a new event, as the birthdays, but they do not appear in iCal. Is there any way to make that possible? It is normal to have a person with his birthday, anniversary and others key dates you want to link to such person, but the only one shows up is the birthday. How to be able to show all those dates linked to people in the agenda in the iCal?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I sugggest you try my application, Dates to iCal. It is shareware with a 2 week trial period.
    Dates to iCal 2 is a replacement for Apple's birthday calendar for iCal. It has a range of features to allow the user to choose what, and what not, to sync to iCal from Address Book.
    As well as automatically syncing birthday dates from Address Book, Dates to iCal 2 can sync anniversary and custom dates. It can set up to five alarms for each date in iCal and can also set different alarms for birthdays and anniversaries. It allows the option of only syncing from one Address Book group. This application also allows for the titles of the events sent to iCal to be modified to the user's preference.
    Best wishes

  • Is there a way to make a website in flash, the client can edit?

    is there a way to make a website in flash, the client can edit? if not which is the best tool to use?
    thanks!

    I said "such as" for a reason.  There are various forms that data resources can take, such as simple name=value text files, but if you are shy of learning xml then you are likely shy of other file forms as well.
    Another way would be to have the client purchase Flash and then they can edit the Flash source file themselves.
    Unfortunately, to do what you want, either you or the client has to learn/understand the tools that are involved.

    I wanted to know how to view the gifts I've sent to people and (if possible) know if they received and downloaded them. Is there any way to do that, other than asking the person? Obviously I want the gift to be a surprise (for my best friend specifically) so asking them if they received it would ruin that.

  • Question:  How to edit and/or delete photos uploaded to web gallery?

    My Dad uploaded some photos to my web gallery without renaming the photos. Is there any way I can go in and edit and/or delete these photos? Sorry if it's a dumb question... I'm new to iLife '08 (really new to iLife in general)... and for the life of me can't figure out how to edit and/or delete these photos (without deleting the whole library).
    Thanks for any help!
    Ciao ~ Louie

    Guess I just answered my own question.
    For anybody else that may be wondering...
    From within iPhoto there is a "WEB GALLERY" tab in the left side menu. There you will see the name of your web gallery with a little icon that looks like an antenna. If you click on that icon... it will sync your web gallery photos that have been uploaded by other users into iPhoto. You can then edit and/or delete the photos within iPhoto and the edits will automatically change on the published web gallery (may depend on sync preferences... mine changed automatically).

  • Why can't I download, edit and tag a photo from the photo stream?, Why can't I download, edit and tag a photo from the photo stream?

    I took a few pictures with my iPhone and then imported them to iPhoto. For a reason I don't understand, a few of the pictures from the camera roll didn't get imported and I thought I lost them. But, there they were in the Photo Stream. But I barely understood how to get the pictures from the steam into my library. Plus, when I copied them to the correct album, iPhoto reported that I couldn't edit them since they were downloaded from the stream. Nor could I tag them.
    Nor could I share them on Facebook. Finally, I just pasted them into the Facebook album and tagged them there.
    This is a mite annoying. Is this how it's supposed to work? Is there no way to actually download and edit and tag a picture from the stream?
