Why are original photos now showing in events after editing in external editor?

In iPhoto 9 before the more recent updates, when I edited photos in an external editor all I saw in the event was the revised photo. Now I see both the original and the revised copy. I know I can hide these but never had to do this before. In addition, if I use reveal in finder the file shows two copies in the original or master file, both appear to be the same though the additional one is designated 2. This could increase my photo file considerably. What is the purpose of this new procedure and can it be revised?
Also, some of the context menu items removed and now one has to go to the menu or start learning the keyboard shortcuts. I am not sure that iPhoto has been improved.

iPhoto has been doing this since iPhoto 11 (v9) was released, not since the recent update. Let Apple know how you feel if you're not happy.
IPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback
No, there is no way to change any of these things back.

  • What has happened? Where is my iPhoto and why are my photos now in Photos. This *****. The whole reason I bought a Mac was the ease of iPhotos. Horrible.

    iPhotos is still in your Applications folder. The iPhoto Library is still in your /Home/Pictures/ folder.

  • Why are my photos now appearing in very low resolution?

    What happened to my sharp and clear photos? Why are my photos now very low resolution with a progress image appearing as a circle on the photo and filling in 1/4 of the circle.  Why are the photos very low resolution copies that look like crap? Where are the good sharp photos I took?

    Latest iOS on iPad Air in photos. It appears server was slow. Progress bar circle now filling in complete circle and resolution is good.  Why do I have to download my photos from iCloud i have plenty of memory space on my ipad ?  Same with movies and music I purchased.  I bought extra physical
    memory when I purchased my iPad so I could view my stuff regardless of whether I had a wifi connection...apparently not.

  • HT201317 Why are my photo streams showing on my iPad but not my camera roll photos from my iPhone?

    JUst bought iPad. Photos not loading from iPhone. iCloud is on on all settings.

    No solution to offer, but I can say that you are not alone. I am having the same exact problem.
    I installed "Photos" around April 8. "My Photo Stream" shows up in the sidebar containing pictures up through April 6 - nothing later. Photos taken with my iPhone since then do not show up.
    My iPhone and iPad both have Photostream on and working. Photos taken with either show up almost immediately on both devices. It is only "Photos" on the desktop machine which is broken. Like you, I have tried turning Photostream on/off, restarted both desktop machine and phone. Nothing.  "Photos" photo stream is stuck in time at April 6.

  • Why are my photos now really blurry on the iOS 7????

    Why is it that my iPad had an absolutely brilliant camera when I was on the iOS 6 but as soon as I upgrade to the iOS 7 my pictures become really grainy and blurry? I Thought the problem would be sorted when I went to the iOS 7.3 but it is still the same. So disappointed as the main reason I got my iPad was to capture and share the photos I took of my children growing up. I wish I could go back to the iOS 6 as they where such better quality. I might as well go and get a throw camera from the chemist for the quality would be just the same.

    Yes I have tried to reset my iPad.
    I am using the camera programme that came with the iPad when I bought it.
    There has been no damage to my iPad.
    My photos were not grainy before I updated to the iOS 7.
    It is a big coincidence that they were fine before and now they are not.
    I am also the forth person I know of who has had this same problem!

  • Why are my photos not showing up under "Photos" in the "Library" section

    I tried uploading photos from the new year, but they are only showing up under "last imported" and "last 12 months" etc... They won't show up under the "photos" section.. They stop on Dec. 31, 2013.. How do I get my pics from the new year to show up? (using iPhoto)

    If the  photos are in last import then they are in you library - last import is not a place - it is a view of photos in your library - you can also view these photos ine vents and in photos
    The most common cause of your not finding them is an incorrect sort (view menu ==> sort photos) or incorrect date settings on your camera

  • TS3999 Why are my photos not showing in my web journal that I created with iPhoto?

    I Created many journals in the past with no problem this weekend I created a new journal and when I access the website the photos do not appear., only grey squares with my notes the date and the weather. I visited the apple Genius Bar and they could not help. They said maybe it is a problem with the Apple Server. apple.com server website shows no problems with their server. Help please

    I've been experiencing the same problem. Both new and old web journals do not display properly. Most photos are gray squares, but if I hit refresh I am sometimes able to partially view the album. This problem occurs both within iPhoto and in various web browsers.
    iPhone and iPad with iOS 7.1.2, and iPhoto 2.0.1

  • Why are my addresses disappearing on my events after making changes?

    I have addresses disappearing on my calendar after I make a change to an event. For instance: I make an error with a house number so I make the change. After I click DONE, the whole address vanishes. Or, if I insert a phone number in notes, the address disappears. The only fix is to add the address last so that no entry causes the problem.

  • Aperture does not update a photo preview after editing in external editor

    I have noticed this problem after installing the last Aperture (3.2.3) update. It appears to be common to my Mac Pro and Mac Book Pro. The updated preview is visible only in "viewer" mode (menu / view / viewer). It's interesting, that updated preview appears in "viewer" mode on both displays (I use two monitors). And when I switch into "split view" the preview switch also and is not updated.
    After relaunching Aperture previews are updated.
    The thumbnail looks to be good (updated). This problem makes my work really uncomfortable.

    This seems to be a bug, and has been discussed in several threads. See this workaround suggested by shuttersp33d: This helped me Re: saving from photoshop

  • My events photo albums have all been renamed with a number followed by IMPRT instead of the date which was how they were originally named. Also the photo now showing on the top of each folder is not actually in that folder. How do I restore?

    My events photo albums have all been renamed with a number followed by IMPRT (deleting the date on which they were taken) Also the photo now showing on the top of each folder is taken from a different event and so is not actually in the album it is sitting on top of. This happened when I linked to itunes. Any idea how to restore it to how it looked before?

    One thing that I find odd is that iTunes used to rebuild the .itl file when you deleted it.  It seems as if the newer iTunes somehow broke this old capability.  If you delete the .itl file it can't rebuild it- it simple treats this as if this is a fresh installation and completely ignores the fact that the .xml file has all the data in it.  I think Apple needs to bring back this old "feature".  Of course, the negative with that was that you lost all of the "Date Added" info along with some other stuff but at least it still kept the favorites info etc. (and I think maybe even the path although I don't believe I ever tried that because my account path has never changed until now).
    One side note: I can't find where the iTunes Windows SDK is.  I was hoping to try to use that to access the .itl "database" and write a utility to fix this situation.  Seems like this has moved from its original location...

  • Slideshow: why do certain photos not show?

    slideshow: why do certain photos not show; they are properly referenced
    Let me expand on this: I have 570 photos in a slide show and all are properly referenced in my library. In the slideshow window, I can see all the pics in the bottom box and when I run "preview slideshow", certain pictures don't appear in the top box whilst the curser moves across the picture in the bottom box. Likewise, if I run the full screen slideshow, that picture(s) does not appear (I have a blank screen); the next picture does show up, howerver... This happens with several dozen pictures, always the same, randomnley amongst the 570...

    Hello Tony and thank you. I regenerated and rebuilt thumbnails; I deleted the slide show and rebuilt it; nothing works. Now, I noticed something weird. All pictures are in an Aperture project and are properly referenced as I said; all the pictures in this project come from a old iPhoto project where some of the pictures are in a "Modified" folder, others in an "Original" project; it is all the pictures in the "Original" project that don't show up in the slide show.... Do you have any idea what I should do?

  • Hi why are my photos after downloading twice ,once in photo library and once in a file with the date why cant i delete a file its an iphone 4s please help

    why are my photos after downloadon twice one as photo library the other as a file with date how can i delete one file same pics

    Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
    It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
    1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
    2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
    I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
    I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
    Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
    If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
    If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
    1. Right click images you want to share.
    2. Select Export version.
    3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
    4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
    This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
    See how you go.

    why are my photos from my iphone not on my computer?

    Someone actually responded to me in another thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16418849#16418849
    Told me to try unchecking the box to sync Photos.
    Do a sync.
    Then check the box.
    And sync again.
    Going to try that now. Let me know if it works for you James

  • Why are website icons now removed when history is cleared?

    Hi,
    Just a very quick question:
    Why are website icons now removed when you clear the history in Safari?
    I have noticed this in the current Lion (and Mountain Lion) versions, this happens, when in previous versions they remained after clearing the history.
    Is there any way to change this?
    Thanks!

    Safari 6
    Safari > Help (menu in the menubar) > Show All Help Topics
    Search term "Clear History".
    "Clearing your history also empties caches, removes website icons, and clears the list of recent searches. Website icons are small graphics that help identify sites on the Internet. You see them in the address and search field, the bookmarks list, and other places. You can see your recent searches by clicking the magnifying glass at the left end of the address and search field when it’s empty".
    That is how clearing history works in Safari 6.
    There is no way change it.
    Best.

  • Why are the photos I copied onto a DVD from I-Photo not viewable by a Windows PC?

    Why are the photos I copied onto a DVD from iPhoto not viewable on a Windows PC?

    Because you did it wrong? It's hard to know unless you tell us what you did.
    What should work:
    Select the photos you want to share
    File -> Export and export them to a folder on the desktop. Burn that to the disk with the Finder.
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
