Best art / image editing / photo App?
Hello
I bought a Macbook Pro (i7/16 GB/512Ram) about a month ago and it will use for a photo editing and a work of art (as well as email, youtube and the usual stuff).
As support for opening has now stopped and I don't subscribe to "Photoshop Creative Cloud", I was wondering if there is a good alternative?
Affinity Photo looks interesting and promising (and is only £40 / $60), but I donnt know how well or otherwise it is to organize files and collections.
I think Lightroom (or what they call Photoshop-Lightroom) is always available as a "buy it and confess" App to about £104 / $149. It is essentially Lightroom or Photoshop and Lightroom combined? Confused.
Personally I do not like Apple Photo, the new photo on Mac management tool. I would prefer something that automatically looks for all the photos stored on the computer rather than having to import them and it's editing capabilities are weak.
As I do a mixture of (pixel based rather than vector) art / illustration and photo editing, I was wondering what is the best option?
Thank you
Photo of the affinity has no organizational capacity. It's just one editor
Lightroom is a standalone application, it isn't photoshop as well. On subscription, you can get both for $10 per month or similar. LR is an organizer, but also a non-destructive processor. This is the most common replacement for aperture. It is a processor of many more capable, though my experience pretty slow and so I'm in the treatment of the migration to
Capture One, next alternative to the opening. So far, so better.
There is no serious photo app that "looks like for all photos", all non-destructive processors are built on databases and require only the imported data.

Mixture of Photoshop mobile app. How can you save an edited photo in the same file as the original?
Hey there Mopi2!
Currently, there is no way to save your new image instead of the original image. For now, you need to manually delete the original. It is however a great request! Please share with the team by typing "give us feedback" in the app menu (tap on the app icon in the upper left corner of the screen while inside the app).
Let me know if that helps!

The only way, as far as I know in the current version of Photos.app, to change a Photos.app picture in photoshop, is to export Photos.appphoto, then edit it in photoshop and re - import in Photos.app.
Don't try to open pictures in Photos.app library directly in photoshop (i.e. open Photos.app library with the Show package contents) or you may ruin the Photos.app library.

Photos edited in Photos App is missing after upgrade to MacOS Sierra
After updating to Mac OS Sierra, all my versions published of my photos is missing.
Updated to:
MacOS (10.12) Sierra
App photos (Version 2.0 (445.1.15))
It is said:
-Update of El Capitan Sierra.
-When the update, I started App Photos and update the library (260 GB).
-A took the Photos App in the meantime round.
-After all the thumbnails update was missing, but the pictures would be accessible by clicking on them.
-Photos App must rebuild now all the thumbnails, but the photos I edited is still missing and even can not be seen by clicking on it (like the non-edited).
-The missing files are a .jpeg and raw (.nef) from Nikon files.
Have you tried:
-Existing photo editing works
-Edit photos (previous edition) missing persons, sometimes shows the missing picture, but it is not always a new tile.
Any suggestions of how to make the pictures to update modified pictures?
Did you turn on your mac to remove duplicates or similar cleaning applications? Some cleaning tools are not safe to use.
How do you change the photo in question? She has been published with adjustments to Photos or have you used an extension of photo editing?
-Edit photos (previous edition) missing persons, sometimes shows the missing picture, but it is not always a new tile.
Have you tried to take pictures with missing tiles to the original version in the control panel?
And pictures can be exported from Photos or you get an error message?

I have created a slideshow using Photos app. I wish that the images will appear randomly (as they can in Power Point), but I don't see where in the settings that allows this. Any thoughts?
There is no option in Photos for MAc that allows you to randomly pull a slide show.
You can create an album and have the album as an instant slide show in a random order using an Apple Script.
See this link: Script: Shuffle Photos for an instant slide show in a random order

Visualization of images on external hard drive via Photos app
Is it possible to view photos stored on an external hard drive through Photos app? I want to use the slide show feature but don't want to import them on my mac every time I want to see photos of old (and consequently taken disk space).
I just saw that when I import a picture in the Photos app, each image takes place twice the amount of space on my drive hard because it "copy of the original file. Rather than using a reference library, which, according to other threads, is ill advised, I had to use an external hard drive for storing images instead.
Photos is not a photo viewer - is a Photo Manager and deals only with photos that have been imported into its library - you can have your library on an external hard drive or a second library on an EHD or you can use a third party Slideshow software

If I copy & paste an image file (jpeg, for example) that I downloaded from the internet to the folder of photos on my Mac, is it automatically imported in the Photos app? Note that the picture on my Mac folder is the folder that contains the file "Library.photoslibrary Photos".
N ° you must actively import photos with the file-> import... command.
Given that you can delete the file as soon as it is imported - if you have the copy in the library checked preferences - I use a folder called 'imports' on my desk to separate files that I'm importing. Once they are imported files into the import folder can trash.

In the same way. Make an Album and drag the images to him. Key word or images and the use of the smart Albums.

. Images PNG in the Mail application, but not the Photo app?
I was wondering if it was a bug or a limitation of the software. I myself have sent images properly displayed .png in the mail application. After clicking on "copy photos", the image did not appear in the downloads section of photo enforcement.
Its seems strange that the mail app can display png files, but the photo app can not.
You may not use png images for wallpapers because of this oversight even. Looks like a simple fix, obviously png display support is there, they just need to add other types of image files to funtions of the broswer photo file.

Photos app stopped to show images of shared folders
Hello
My apps IdeaPad and EasyCrop save pictures in the shared documents folder. But the latest OS update 1.0.5 in my PlayBook does not show all pictures stored in shared folders.
I tried to put in other shared folders (shared/photos) etc., but the photos app does not display all images saved from third-party applications.
However, when Browse dialog opens to load the image, it displays all pictures stored in the shared folders.
Everyone experienced up to now?
If you have a PlayBook with last update, can you please try EasyCrop or any other free image utility to save an image and try to view in photos app?
Thank you

Okay, I finally found what was wrong.
The updated OS 1.0.5.2342 have some changes in the mapped file APIs.
File.documentsDirectory and File.desktopDirectory now points to the same folder "documents" on real PlayBook device.
The last API docs v1.0.1 is incorrect. File.desktopDirectory is assumed to point to the "root" of work-sharing files.
My applications used File.documentsDirectory to save the images. But the app photos in previous versions was showing images in the documents folder as well. In the last update, it stopped showing images in the documents folder.
Now I've just updated my application to use File.userDirectory which now points to the root of the working folder. And now I'm able to save to the shared folder / photos.
Save the actions/pictures folder now shows in the photos app.
I'm now confused if I should download new versions of my applications to use this mapping has changed or I should wait for RIM fix this bad mapping.

live photo app tile use a single directory - why mine not use photos of all records in images m
I have Windows 8. The Live App Photo tile will focus on a single folder in my library of photos, so I see even a few pix over and over. I tried to move all my files off C, uninstall and then reinstall the photo app. If I move a few files photo back to my pictures, live tiles don't show me pix of the first record that I move. I have hundreds of files - how can I get the app to watch each of them, as it should?
Thanks for any help!It's just the way the brain dead photos app works. It refreshes these 5 tilesrarely and there are no easy click and change. You canmanually force it to refresh if.
