  Windows in Vista - stupid Question Photo Gallery

  I take a lot of pictures over several days, so when I their transfer from the camera to the computer, they are different places and days.  They are listed in the Windows Photo Gallery by date taken.  Rather than keep it like that, I want to change this date (and not on each photo, but the name of the Group) to something like Austin, TX.2010 and Museum.2010 in Houston and San Antonio Riverwalk.2010 (everything is loaded into the computer at the same time.)  How do I do that?

  1. open the Windows Photo Gallery by clicking Start , allprograms, and then clicking Windows Photo Gallery.

• Scanning old Photos using Windows Photo Gallery

  I am digitizing my old family pictures using Windows Photo Gallery, but each individual image that is scanned is saved as its own folder in images. Obviously, I would save each individual image as a file/thumbnail to a named folder.

  Any ideas?

• I can't open the .jpg files from the desktop using "Windows Photo Gallery" as the default program. They open normally from nowhere elsewhere, but not directly from the desktop. No error, nothing happens.

  If I right click 'open with' open with other programs like IE but not "Windows Photo Gallery". It is not a specific .jpg file, this is all .jpg files. For example... I have a .jpg file in a folder on my desktop, open folder double click, it will open in the "Windows Photo Gallery". Copy and paste the SAME file on the desktop, double-click on, nothing happens. I tried to restart, change the default value of IE, open the file, it opens, by default change to "Windows Photo Gallery" doesn't work... I am confused?

  Just one question... when done scanning and recording of the scans...
  you select the options to reduce the file size by compressing
  the photos?

  If you have only a few of these scans... you could open their
  one at a time in Windows Paint and go to... File / save as...
  Enter a new name, choose a backup folder and choose .jpg.
  This will create a new version of the same photo and I suspect
  It will be compatible with Windows Photo Gallery.

  Also... it may be interesting to try to install Windows Live Photo Gallery.

  Download Windows live Photo Gallery

  (There are other applications included in the download...
  Uncheck the ones you don't want)

• Is it possible to keep the pictures in Windows Photo Gallery

  Among the 400 photos that I put in folders on my desk to work with them using a much better Image Editor Windows Photo Gallery made thousands of photos and when I try to get rid of them in the photo gallery are removed from the computer. You are given no option to copy / paste only delete.

  Should I just uninstall Photogallery and put an end to his lame reproduction.

  Hello

  Windows Photo Gallery is designed to automatically display the pictures and videos stored in the folder of images on your computer. You can change the contents of the Gallery at any time by adding and removing folders, which is convenient if store you some of your photos and videos in one location other than the folder of photos on your computer. You can also add pictures and videos to photo gallery without adding the entire folder.

  Warning: Photo Gallery is another way to view and organize your photos and videos. It displays images and videos you have stored in the images and other files on your computer. It is not a replacement for folders on your computer. Therefore, you must not delete the photos in the photo gallery or the pictures in the folder unless you really want to delete the picture from your computer. If you do, they will be deleted from your computer and no longer appear in the pictures folder or photo gallery.

  If the answer is not to store your file in the images under your user profile folder or they will be deleted when you delete them from Photo Gallery.

• Unable to print only one page in a multiple page / image tiff file using Windows Photo Gallery

  IT seems that for Windows Vista Photo Gallery is able to display multiple images in a TIFF file format when printing, but it does not select the image to be printed. Whenever I print a tiff image file two pages to print.  Since most of my photos are in TIFF format, and each contains two images one by one another at a reduced resolution and normal resolution I'm only interested in printing the first image and not the second.  I really don't want to convert all my photos in a different format.  Does anyone know if there is a setting to fix this?

  Hi KKosin

  Welcome to the Microsoft Vista answers Forum!

  I suggest measures are:

  1. try to print the image in MS Paint, steps to follow:

  i. Click Start, in the search box, type in the paint

  II. open the document to print

  III. click on print and check

  2. change the format of an image file and check if this problem is still happening. You can change the type of file to the JPEG/JPG format. Steps to follow:

  i. right click on the file type

  II. select Rename

  III. the extension .jpg or .jepg replace

  IV. and then try to print

• How to copy or send pictures from windows photo gallery to my pictures in Windows Vista?

  How to copy or send photos of the Gallery Pho Windows to my pictures (Progr. is Windows Vista), or to copy them to another external hard drive

  Your photos are not archived in the Windows Photo Gallery... it access
  the files for viewing and changing the location, they are saved in the
  your hard disk... probably your pictures folder.

  The only pictures actually stored by Windows Photo Gallery are the
  original versions of photos that have been published. It is for the purpose
  back to if you are unhappy with the version published the photo.

  The original photos (unpublished) are located in the following folder:
  C:\Users\\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Windows Photo Gallery\
  Original images.

  If you right click on a thumbnail in the Windows Photo Gallery and choose...
  Open the file location... you can find the current folder, the file is saved in.

  You can right click on a picture or a selected group of photos or a complete
  folder in the menu... Choose... Send to... a menu is displayed
  which should include your extra hard drive.

  Also you can drag and drop or copy and paste files from one hard disk to another.

• How to delete a picture in Windows Photo Gallery tag files or specific files of photo files without deleting the image completely out of all of these places, leaving the image in one place vs. have in several places?

  I'm trying to manage my photos already imported and downloaded on my computer.  There is a master "All photos and videos" folder in the Windows Photo Gallery all in the top left of this program.  Below that is a folder "Images".  Below that are "Tags" with a certain number of 'labelled' folders below.  Lower in another main 'Images' folder with a folder of the yellow file beside him icon.  Here's this file, a number of other folder also named with the file yellow folder icon next to them as well.

  What I'm trying to do is manage all these photos and who want to keep a copy of an image in one of the folders of images with an icon of yellow folder next to him.  However, if I delete an image from anywhere in one of the places mentioned above, no matter which, a copy or copies of the image lies, the given image and all copies in one of the other place listed in the first subparagraph above are deleted and this specific photo is present ONLY in the recycling bin.

  How can I do what I want to do here?  I hope that's clear enough!

  Thanks a lot (someone)...

  Hi EKahn,

  When you delete a file from the library, you do not your computer delete it. If you delete a folder, photo library no longer displays images and videos that were in that folder, although the file remains on your computer.

  You can remove the folders that you have added to the Gallery of photos at any time, but you cannot remove files that are in the default Photo Gallery. Remove a folder prevents him from appearing in the photo gallery. If you delete a photo, it is deleted from your computer as if you deleted the images folder.
