Faces in the Photo App

I have spent a lot of time, marking the faces for photos on my Mac when the first Photos app came out.  I need to get a new computer and discovered I have to redo it.  I have thousands of photos!  Is there a solution?

I need to get a new computer and discovered I have to redo it.

This will depend on how you will transfer the photo library to the new computer.  Migrate your documents and data from your current Mac to your new Mac using the Setup Wizard when you first launch the new Mac, connect the old Mac or a backup Time Machine to the new Mac. Then the photo library will be migrated because it is as well as all your other documents and data, all the faces will be tagged, when you launch Photos on your new mac.

The faces will be absent, if you use iCloud photo library and you download the photos to iCloud photo library to your new Mac and not a backup.  But in this case, only the thumbnails of nominated faces will be missing.  All the photos will have the names of available faces, calling again will be much faster and easier.

  • Ignore the faces in the photos for macOS Sierra

    I got a lot of photos with the crowds in the background. The photos app is grateful to all those faces (a few thousand). Is there a quick way to ignore them permanently?

    There is no 'ignore' for people. You can either let sit them in the section "add people" from the album of the people or add them all at once, then select them all and hide. but hiding people also will exclude all the photos of that person to the memory. If offenders are in the background of a photo you want to use in the memories, you can not hide the person.

    If you use brute force and delete the circle with the face detected from a photo, you end up with white, featureless faces thumbnails in the album of the people.  I did this however and clicking the X on the circle of faces to remove the detected face. Then I merged all of the tiles white album a great person 'delete' and hope a bug fix in a future version to get rid of white tiles. Repair of the photo library does not solve it.

  • The people in the Photos app clock?

    The people in the Photos app supposed to sync between Mac OS and iOS? Is this an element broken or not supported? Someone please tell me that Apple does not expect me to organize people over and over again on all my devices? That would be quite ridiculous. I've never used the faces feature in previous versions for this reason.

    Unfortunately not.

    Using Photos has just been updated for Sierra, and we finally have it in writing:

    https://help.Apple.com/photos/Mac/1.2/?lang=en#/phtf5e48489c

    Note: Persons identified in the album people are not synchronized between devices.

    And as far as I know, it really does not synchronize between my libraries of Photos on the MacBook Pro and my iMac.

    It's different in the 10 user guide iOS for the iPhone and iPad:

    http://help.Apple.com/iPhone/10/#/iph9c7ee918c

    People are synchronized between devices where you are connected with the same Apple ID.

    I can't test on iOS devices, because only my iPhone can be updated to iOS 10, not the iPad and iPod touch, but the iPhone will not sync with my Mac people.

  • Videos from the Photos app

    Hello

    I just started using Photos on OS X El Capitan app.

    When I launched the new application, all my iPhoto albums were under an "event" called iPhoto events. I've since moved these images in their respective months/years - which is my favorite filing system.

    For example: I have albums titled Feb 2010, March 2010, etc. These albums contain photos and videos.

    I noticed a "Vidéos" album, which is close to the other ones which I assume are part of the Photos app (faces, slo - mo, splinters, etc.).

    I wanted to know if this album shows all THE videos in the Photos app (a quick way to look at the pictures).

    Or are they videos that I didn't put in my own albums yet (I got a bunch of images/videos, that I had not properly filed before moving on to the new application)?

    So in summary, I want to know if I need to review the video album and move the files.

    I hope this makes sense.

    Thank you, Megan

    It's just a quick search for all videos in the library. Nothing to move.

  • My photos and videos are not in chronological order, when I export the Photos app

    Hello. When I export my photos and videos from the Photos app on my iMac all the photos and videos are not in order. I need all the photos in good standing - I need to export about 5 000 pictures of the application in order for a meeting next week! Help, please!

    Ethan.

    This is not photo - it is a function of the viewing program (probably the finder) - once the photos are exprted form pictures you can see then in different ways which you control, Photos does not - by the finder you can view by name of son, byt several dates, by file size, etc.

    Usually, the best way to accomplish what you want is to export using the names of batch file numbeing and then sort by file name in the program viewing

  • Update iOS10 to post the photo app shows for 2 GB with no photos

    After updating to iOS 10

    the photo app is 2 GB. There is no photos or recorded videos, but that's still 2 GB

    Hi 38sanjudas,

    I understand that you see 2 GB of space used by your Photos app, despite not having anything that is stored. I know it's important to get the most out of your storage space, so I'm happy to help you.

    It is important to note that when you delete a photo on your iPhone, it is not permanently deleted and will go to the album recently removed in case it needs to be recovered. If it is not emptied, he can fill and take a storage capacity as well. You can learn more about this in our article here:

    Delete photos on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch - Apple Support

    Permanently delete photos

    If you want to permanently delete your pictures or your videos within 30 days, you can remove them from the album recently deleted. When you delete a photo in this album, you can't get it back.

    1. Open the Photos app and go to the Albums tab.
    2. Open the recently deleted album and press Select.
    3. Click on each photo or video that you want to permanently delete.
    4. Press DELETE.

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. See you soon!

  • the Photos App in Mac Book Air how hide

    My friends:

    I want to hide the photos app on my MacBook Air (biblioteca fotos) see attached.

    OK, these pictures are in my iCloud with a security copy, allows you to delete these photos from the photos (photographs) (MacBook Air) app disappear icloud?

    Another question about it; How can put key for photo (biblioteca foto) app in my MacBook Air to access than me?

    Thank you my friends.

    You can't hide it, but you can change its location.

    If you want to keep it private use a different account for your photos and store them in the folder "Pictures" of this account so they will be inaccessible to anyone not connected to this account (unless they have administrator rights and change this folder policy)

    third question is similar to lock the application only you can access. Short to install on a suppression device, you take with you, or install it on a folder in your account that nobody else can use you will probably need a 3rd party app like Mac App blocker, which is supported by the developer, not by Apple.

  • Help needed on the export of the Photo App

    I'm a photo hobbyest with thousands of photos stored in my Mac using the Photos app. I already saved them on Time Machine and iCloud. However, I try to upload some on an external hard drive but can't.  The Photo app continues to CHANGE the resolution of my images when I export them.  Here is what happens...

    • I have uploaded a JPEG of 5 MB in the Photo app earlier this year.
    • Now, I'm ready to take a copy of this picture on my external hard drive.
    • If I just move the original photo to the Photo app on my counter top, the resolution GOES from 5MB to 2.1 MB.
    • If I export 'The Original unmodified' I lose all the changes that I made in the Photo app.
    • If I export the 'High' quality jpeg image, it DROPS my resolution of 2.1 MB.
    • If I export the photo to the "Maximum" quality jpeg, it INCREASES my resolution to 14.3 MB!
    • I found NO WAY to download my original photo size!

    Question... How to export or copy an image from within the app of the Photo on an external hard drive with the resolution of the EXACT SAME as it is?

    Thank you!

    You first need to understand the resolution - the file size is not resolution - the resolution concerns the dimensions in pixels of the image - file to a JPEG file size is determined by the compression you choose - compression of the image does not change the dimensions in pixels of all - compression removes the donnΘes form the pictures and all JPEG in theory is inferior finial an uncompressed image as TIFF - but for practically all the uses, it does not matter

    When you export a modified version of the photo you create a new file that contains the image and the size of the files is determined by the selections you make and has no resolution at all to the original file

    Photos has limited control over file size - ir you want a file size, then export a copy of very high quality (maximum or even a TIFF uncompressed) and use another program that gives you more control to compress in the JPEG compression you want

    But at the end of the day the size of the file is really no different and it is very likely that the big JPEG will give you the same results as an uncompressed TIFF

  • Sharing of photo on El Capitan Photos.app messages blocking the Photos app

    Hello

    I notice that when I try to share a photo of the Photos app using some extensions in the share menu, the app will hang finally.  Let's say I want to share a photo of Messages or Notes.  I have a photo, box/arrow icon, select "Messages".  Then I get a small window with the picture in it and may or may not be able to select a recipient before the whole process hangs.

    I CAN'T go to the menu Photos.app and do a Quit.  Otherwise the duration of the session stops responding.  Sharing via the email option works well.  Note fails.

    It must be rare, as I have searched and not found anything.

    iCloud library is enabled, and the storage is not optimized.

    Thanks in advance for advice.

    After having this problem for weeks, I rebooted in safe mode to try sharing the Photos app.  It has worked well.  After the reboot in normal mode, including a power off when the normal start hanging around 15% for one hour, the system starts finally normally in "normal mode".  Now sharing photos works again.

    I don't know what changed, but something positive happened.

  • How to remove the research recently went through the Photos app?

    I searched online, and I have not found a way to remove latest research research conducted recently in the Photos app. I believe also that it is not a way to do this on the current iOS, then maybe there should be an edit/clear these latest research button for the Photos app in the coming iOS update? That would be nice.

    Search for other things, he's going to rewrite on the 'old'. Right now, it's the only way...

  • Can't see the photos from the Photos App in iMovie

    Hello

    I came home from vacation and wanted to do quick video for my friends.
    Open iMovie, clicked on the photo library and was expecting to see my recent photos (at least). However, there were a few random photos year and months old, some of them I have deleted enough of course, don't know how they ended up there.

    I tried to reconnect photos iCloud and resynchronize, however anything.

    Any ideas what to do? Of course broke him "it works"

    Thanks in advance

    Looks like your problem is with Photos not iMovie. You can see your photos in the photos app? Using iCloud photo library? If yes then maybe you need to wait for iCloud Sync photos to your Mac.
