Will installation of iPhoto 08 overwrite albums created iPhoto 06?

- in other words: will the albums created in iPhoto 06 disappear?
Thank you for a reply by anyone who went through this process already.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Yes they will. If they are named Roll ## then the event will become Untitled Event. So if you identify with the roll number you should rename those rolls to something with the roll number in it, Say Event ##. Then you'll have your number reference intact.\\Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

What happens if I make a picture album on my ipad or iPhone and then sync with my Mac? Will it add a new album to iPhoto on my Mac? Also, what will happen if I add pictures on my ipad to existing albums that I made in iPhoto on my Mac?

So what I have gleemed from this thread - is that Apple will not help me if an iPad mini is dropped and the screen breaks. I would have lived without the insurance if I could have simply bought a new screen and then had it replaced by Apple.
On something so fragile I would have expected a piece of glass to be a replacement part. But I am glad I made this post because now I no for sure if I break the screen there is no way to have it fixed by Apple and keep it in Warranty.
Yup, kind of like anything else you accidentally break that is more cost effective to replace than to repair. Keep that iPad away from the toddler

Photos will not show in an album in iPhoto

I went to look at pictures in one of my albums in iPhoto, and while the album is present, there are no photos in it. When I look at "Last 12 Months", the pictures do not show up there either (or in "Events" for that matter). Another album is missing about 30 pictures. I know the pictures are all there because I use the one particular folder (that shows "No photos"), as my Apple TV screen saver, and all the pictures are there. I looked in "Trash", and found all the pictures there. So i copied them to the folder, and it still shows "No photos."
Any ideas what's going on and how I get the pictures to again show up in their respective albums?

Add ing photos should not be done using the install method, use the desktop Media application. I suspect it may not work with the E2 as the E2 uses the Photos application and you may need to use the Desktop that comes with the install CD. This is covered in the User Guide, available as a PDF on the install CD and on the E2 support page.

How to transfer an iPad iPhoto Mobile album to iPhoto or Aperture on my desktopMac???

I have several photogaphs I downloaded from my camera directly to my iPad 3 and edited using iPhoto Mobile.
I now want to transfer these edited images to my desktop to further edit and refine in Aperture BUT the only images that come up when I connect my iPad and Aperture (or iPhoto) are the original images....none of the thumbnails of the edited images appear to enable an easy export?
Anyone know how to do this?

How to delete pix/albums in iPhoto for iOS.?

I created two Journals in iPhoto for iOS.
When uploading to the iCloud I constantly run into "Storage almost full" problems. I have already deleted many apps to create space, but iPhoto seems to consistently grow in size (iPad > Settings>General> Usage: 6.8GB for iPhoto), worse yet, when publishing the Journals which are on the iPad it seems that additional space is needed for the publishing process.
I did NOT find a way to delete either Pictures or Albums in the iPhoto for iOS app, nor do I find a way to delete Photos and Camera in Settings, nor (individual or a range of) Photos or Albums in the Photos app. In the Photos tab of the Photos app there is a red Delete button, but this is greyed out; in the Albums tab this Delete button does not appear at all.
Any advice/suggestion/pointer would be highly appreciated. Thanks and cheers from Austria.

See this:
iPhoto for iOS (iPad): Delete photos from iPhoto
Basically, you have to delete the photos the same way you got them onto the iPad in the first place.
In the Photos.app, you should be able to delete photos in the camera roll and in the events that have been uploaded using the camera connection kit, but no other.
Any synced photo can only be deleted by syncing again.
For Photos that have been edited, you need to undo all edits, before you can delete them, otherwise the delete button will not be active.
Albums created by tagging cannot be deleted, they are created automatic. You delete these albums by removing the tags from the photos. Then the album will vanish.

I hv lost my icon for iphoto on my Imac Mac OSX10.5.8.   I still hv my pics but can no longer creat albums and events. If I upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion, will my pics go into the new iphoto?       I would like to update Mountain lion.Will

I hv lost my icon for iphoto on my Imac Mac OSX10.5.8.   I still hv my pics but can no longer creat albums and events. If I upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion, will my pics go into the new iphoto?

From where did you lose the iPhoto icon? From the Dock? If so, then it's still in your Applications folder. Find it there then drag the icon back into the Dock. If it's no longer in Applications perhaps you've moved or renamed it. Use Spotlight to search for "iphoto."
Upgrading to Mountain Lion will not affect your iPhoto Library unless you erase the hard drive first. Be sure you backup before any system upgrade.
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)

         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
         7. Xserve (Early 2009)
     Are my applications compatible?

Iphoto-I inadvertantly created a smart album. It has captured all recent photos in it I want to delete it but need to know if this will delete the same photos in their albums?

iphoto- I accidently created a smart album which is capturing all current new photos. I put them in their own album but I can't delete them in the smart album. Can I delete the smart album without losing the photos in the other albums? larrybksfld

Yes you can delete the Smaert Album. It will not delete the photos.

How do I move an album created on my iPhone to iPhoto?

I created an album on my iPhone recently to make it easier to navigate through my Camera Roll. Is there a way to move that album (and the photos in it) to iPhoto? I realize that iPhone albums are just subsets of the Camera Roll, and thus all the photos have in fact synched to my computer. But the way I've grouped them together is the key... I'd like to avoid having to to re-create the album on iPhoto manually. (It will take a long time and seems completely unnecessary.)
Can I do what I'd like to do?

Nope - hopefully in the future -
That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.

How can I import into iPhoto, from my iPad, albums created on the iPad using Photos App ?

I take about 300 photos a day using my iPad, as i'm filming to help keep continuity.
I then create albums under the scene number from some of the photos taken. Eventually i will build up all of the scene numbers in the script.
I want to import into iPhoto all of these albums.
How can this be done?
For some reason, when i plug my iPad into the laptop, it won't import screen grabs or all of the photos.
So the fact i have tried to be super organised, the apple software is now letting me down !
Can albums created in the iPad now be imported into iPhoto as albums to keep my organisation ?
Thanks.

I created an album in iPhoto and every time I click on slideshow it plays the pictures backwards from the order in the album. How do I change that?

I created an album in iPhoto and every time I click on slideshow it plays the pictures backwards from the order in the album. How do I change that?

When running a slideshow from an album it will not run properly if the photos are sorted manually. Sort them by any of the other options, title, date, rating, etc. and it will play correctly.
Send a report of the problem to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
If you must sort them manually create the slideshow in the slideshow mode in iPhoto, not from an album.

Facebook created tags disappearing from iphoto synced albums

I uploaded an album to FB via iphoto09. FB friends added tags of themselves. many of the tags are to people Im not even direct friends with. Then days later I noticed all the FB tags are gone again! I re-added some. they disappeared again. Definitely NOT related to users untagging themselves, as i can re-add and it happened to photos of myself. I have added a photo to the album via iphoto, and i have updated the caption via facebook.com, but i wouldnt expectthose events to DELETE the tags created within facebook...but something of the sort must be happening....
WHY is that happening and how do i make it stop? if its "as designed" functionality...why? if not, can we get a response that its being fixed? or an explanation of how to ensure this wont happen again? wary of using the export if tags wont work, which is what makes photos on FB so social and useful, as its AWFUL to keep retagging friends pics, having them appear in their feed, doing it again etc...
any comment or workaround or explanation very much appreciated.

Remember that you are not just uploading to facebook, your synchronising with it, and this means that data in one side of this equation can be replaced or removed to make both sides of the equation the same.
You understand and agree that uploading your photos to a third party service requires compliance with the terms and conditions of that service. +At the time that you upload to or download photos from any such service, the iPhoto software will also synchronize your iPhoto tag information with the photo tags that you have on that service, which may result in a loss of photo tag information in iPhoto+.
That's from the End User Licence Agreement.

I have created an album in iphoto but can't buy it because I still use iphoto 08 (version 7.0). If I upgrade to version 7.0, can I print my album in New Zealand or Australia?

I have created an album in iphoto but can't buy it because I still use iphoto 08 (version 7.0). If I upgrade to version 8.0 which is iphoto 09 can I print my album in New Zealand?

Yes -- http://store.apple.com/us/help/print_products/routing
but to upgrade you will need to purchase an iLife DVD from ebay or Amazon or other source - older versions of iPhoto are not available from the App Store - either iLife '09 or '11 will work on 10.6.8
beware that sometimes books (albums are logical organzational elements in iPhoto) sometimes will change with upgrades so you may need to make some changes after upgrading - be sure to carefully preview prior to ordering the book

How significant is the yellow hazard warning for pictures when creating an album using IPhoto?

How significant is the yellow hazard warning message for pictures when creating an album using IPhoto?

Are you talking about making a Book?
How siginificant depends on how low resolution the photo is and how sensative you are to poor prints - it displays when a -photo will print below 180 dpi - what is the DPI of the photos that is givingyou the warning (the photo size divided byt the pixel size)

Can I create albums in iPhoto for iOS

My albums in iPhoto on my MacBook are imported to my iPad. But I can't add photos to the albums, I guess because they were created in iPhoto, not iPhoto for iOS. So I thought I would create the albums on my ipad in iPhoto for iOS, and import the old photos to is, and add new ones. But it doesn't appear that you can create albums in iPhoto iOS. Can this be true?

You create (tagged) albums in iPhoto iOS by tagging. If you want a new album, you create a custom tag with the name of the album you want, and all photos with that tag will appear in your custom album.
Or create regular albums in the Photos.app. All albums created in the Photos.app are visible in iPhoto for iOS:

Any ideas please. I am using Yosemite 10.1.1
Many thanks Jaz Eilles

Sounds like you have a folder with an album named fred inside of it. Folders can only hold other folders, albums, slideshows, etc. but not just photos. So you must be sure to drop the photo directly onto the album titled fred that resides inside that folder otherwise it will create a new album.
So expand the folder so the fred album is visible and drop the new photo onto the album.
