  • Editing Smart Album

    I created a smart album and need to change the criteria. I can't find how to do this without delete and create a new!

    Thank you

    OK - I finally found my own answer! Click the smart album, and then click on the 'Options' menu which is located directly above thumbnails of photos. I would have thought that would be in the area of the album or the menu, not exceeding the photos!

  • Identify broken links referenced through the smart album

    Hi guys,.

    I work with LR and export my photos in a floder I download later in Photos, due to its integration in OS X for viewing, sharing, etc...

    I use the option referenced in Photos app to do not copy the photos twice on the hard drive.

    As I sometimes delete image files in the finder folder, I have a few photos that have a broken photo link.

    I want to identify these photos so I could remove them in Photos.

    I would use a script for this preference, but that I don't know, I was wondering if I could have all these images link broken in a smart album to delete manually.

    Photos already has a smart album to identify all referenced images, but not that particular option with broken links.

    Do you have an idea for this?

    I would use a script for this preference, but that I don't know, I was wondering if I could have all these images link broken in a smart album to delete manually.

    I doubt that a script to access information on the State of the references.

    The only properties of a media element that are accessibe in Photos are:

    What you could try would be write a script, which tries to export all the photos in your referenced photo album.  and if export encounters an error, catch the error and add a keyword to the photo.

  • Photos hidden not appearing in the Smart Album

    I hid several pictures, but they make their appearance in a smart album that I created.  How I really hide?  If I remove them from the smart album are they deleted my pictures constantly even if I firstly, drag them to another traditional album.  Thanks in advance to smooth out my confusion.

    You cannot delete individual images of the smart albums. Smart albums based on the rules you set for them.

    Yes, the hidden images are not intended to be Secret. If you do not want them visible at all, remove them from the library of Photos ('Photos' or 'All the Photos') views.

  • Smart album, creating criteria of dates wrong

    Created smart album criteria evil in Danish local range - it uses silently JJ/MM/AAAA while displaying the DD/MM/YYYY.

    In the Danish version of Photos, dates are displayed JJ/MM/AAAA (photos) which is correct. When you create a new smart album with a date range of, say, 12/01/2014 to 01/01/2015 I spend January 1, 2015, obviously erroneous, 12 January 2014.

    Thus, the error is that dates are displayed correct for the locale, but the entrance to the date range in the creation of the smart album is in the order of US.

    How to fix this?

    FYI: I am reposting this question who hails from 2015 because there is no immediate solution.

    Best

    Alexander

    Try to use two separate rules:

    All the

    Date is later than

    and

    The date is before

    For the date range.

  • Photos crashes during smart album

    This afternoon, I wanted to make a new smart album, as I do almost every month, but now more precisely for the month of July, which started today...

    Anyway, I have this folder structure: photos of the year & month/2016 / in which I wanted to create 201607 (juli) <-Dutch for July.

    Creating smart album without problem, being within the range of the 07/01/2016 to 07/01/2016, and I tried to change the last 17 (1 July, the European notation) 317. Photos closes unexpectedly.

    Reopened and retried: Photos once again crashes.

    So I decided to repair the library first. Photos accidents and then retried.

    I then booted from an external hard drive and did a lot of maintenance: DiskWarrior, DriveGenius, TechToolPro...

    Restarted internal drive, launched Photos and tried again: pictures of accidents.

    I ultimately:

    -double smart album of last month;

    -replaced by 201606 (juni) 201607 (juli) and settings from 6/1/2016-2016/06/30 to 07/01/2016 to 07/31/2016 and bingo: I now have the smart album, I wanted to.

    So I solved my problem, but the question remains if this is a bug or not. I - of course - sent Apple crash reports.

    What pictures happened there was a lot of accident reports for the smart albums with a rule of date range. He was depending on the location. The accidents that happened if the primary system language was not English, for example, the French or German.

    Workaround was to replace the rule of the two separate rules date range date: Date is later to... And the date is before...

    Your problem could also be caused by the problem of the language?

  • Smart Albums don't Show Up On iDevices, Correct?

    It seems that Smart Ablums do not appear on any iDevices, buffers, phones, etc.

    At least, I can't to the display on my phone.

    Is that how it is supposed to work?

    Or y at - it a way to get the smart Albums on my iPhone or iPad?

    It seems that Smart Ablums do not appear on any iDevices, buffers, phones, etc.

    At least, I can't to the display on my phone.

    If you synchronize the devices with iCloud photo library, Yes.  Then only the standard albums will be synchronized to iOS devices.

    Photos on iOS does not support smart albums.  If I need a smart album special on my iPhone I copy the smart album in a standard album. The iPhone will show the standard album.

    If you mainly use smart albums in the Photos on your Mac, you can sync to the iPhone or the iPad, if you synchronize devices using iTunes and clear iCloud photo library on iOS devices.  With iTunes photo sync, you can download the albums selected to iOS devices, including smart albums.

    I use iCloud photo library on the iPhone but not the iPad. For the iPad I synchronize the albums selected using iTunes. In this way, I got all the pictures in full resolution stored locally on the iPad and I can browse them easily, without having to download from iCloud.

  • Smart album 'not at any album"has photos in a Smart Album

    I created a smart album (Smart Album 'A') to determine which of my 12 000 photos had not yet enrolled in an album.  I noticed that there are pictures in the not assigned to an album smart album (Smart Album 'A') that were already in another smart album (Smart Album 'B').  What I am doing wrong.

    You probably have copies of the same images. A copy is referenced in an album, we're not.

    How can I edit smart playlist in 12.4.0.119? This option seems to have disappeared.

    It seems to be the same.  When you say 'Edition', you mean change the rules and parameters of the intelligent, correct reading list?

    Make sure the sidebar is visible, so hidden (from the view menu).  Right-click the smart playlist and Edit the list of smart playlist.  Or, after selecting the smart playlist, use the Edit Playlist button near the top right.

  • iMac Photo app smart album settings files: stored in this directory?

    Nobody knows...

    On the iMac, in which directory is 'photo app Smart Album settings files' stored?

    I am running OS X El Capitan, version 10.11.4

    All photos, records, albums etc are stored in the photo library. Are NOT, repeat DO NOT mess with this file, unless you want to make a mess of your photos. Should be changed in the Photo app. Maybe if you tell what you are trying to reach so someone can point you in the right direction.

  • Exclude specific 'face' of the smart album?

    Is it possible to create a smart album that includes pictures of several people (using 'faces'), but not pictures which may include a specific other person who may appear in some of these photos. For example, I would a smart album that includes all the photos of my brother, sister and parents (using 'faces'), but excludes all the photos that include the 1st wife of my brother.

    David

    I think that you'll just have to put in place of the rules in the process of creating smart albums.

    There is a rule for faces to create smart albums. You can use the "Add rule" button in the upper right of the dialog box to create a Smart Album. You will need to add a rule by individual faces. With faces, there is a 'is' and the option 'is not. The order could play a factor in the execution of the rules so try putting the old sis in law first or last. If all goes well, one of those who will work.

    Good luck

    PS. you might want to try first with a single inclusion and exclusion. If it works, continue to add more inclusions you govern together.

  • How can I make a smart album of group my photos of stick selfie?

  • How to create two different smart albums with photos with the same date?

    I created a smart album by using 'Date is' and ' keyword is EAA.»  (The photos have a keyword like "EAA" or "Flower".  Photos of keyword EAA & flower have the same date.)  When I use "Corresponding to all" are has no pictures in the album.  When I use "Match any" all the photos are in the album - EAA & flower.  I would like an album with only pictures of CEA for that date and another album with photos of flower with the same date.

    I get the same answer.  I can get the date and to a key word to work with 'all' selected, but not date and keywords.  So you will need two smart albums: one with date and ECA ('all' selected) and the other with date and flowers ('all' selected).

    Use the file menu option ➙ new Smart Album.
