is there an alternative photo management system that works (and NOT the pictures)

Y at - it another app that works better than the pictures, that we can use to manage the photos, because they took iPhoto and replaced it with pictures?  Is there a way just to import photos and save them to your computer in folders, as you would on a Windows system? And then maybe just use Picasso or something?

You can still use iPhoto if you are eligible:

Re: Iphoto's gone? I want to go back!

Go to the App Store and check out the shopping list. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1

If it's there, then drag your existing iPhoto application (not the library, just the app) in the trash

Install the application on the App Store.

IPhoto is sometimes not visible on the shopping list. It may be hidden. See this article for more details on how to view it.

A question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?

iPhoto, the application and the iPhoto library are two different parts of the iPhoto program. So, reinstall the application should not affect the library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • Creative Cloud Lightroom import records show that year and not the name of the file that I created

    When I import files from an SD card to Lightroom, I import to an external drive as my file.  Indicates the name of the folder to the year (2015) and not the name of the file that I created (Fort Worth, 12152015).  This has happened with every import that I've done so far.  How can I fix it?

    The copy option is used to copy the files from your camera card. The Add option is used when the files are already on your hard drive. They must be copied, just added to the Lightroom Catalog. You can simply add the files that are located on a map of the camera. They must be copied to the hard drive first.

  • Moved from my library of Photos to iCloud by car and now the pictures will not open it...

    I thought being smart and transfer my library of Photos to iCloud by car so I can access all my devices, but now the pictures won't open it. I hold down the Option key when starting the Photos and told to open the library moved in my world of iCloud drive. He complains about the library in an incompatible format (or something similar). If I move just back off iCloud drive to any where in my regular Finder file system then pictures is perfectly fine opening of the library. What the heck! Anyone know what is happening or that seemingly obvious thing does not work why?

    Yes... I think the library should be 'local' to your Mac. It can live on a USB key and maybe even a network drive, but I do not expect any level of performance with her on the cloud. If you think you can avoid to keep your phone synchronized with iCloud and still have access to all of your library, it won't work.

    Apple don't tell you not to do it, but they said this without mentioning iCloud drive...

  • There is a photo management tool/plugin?

    I still own LR. This is the feature of development is really superb. Much better than any tool PP, I have used in the past.

    A gap that I find with LR, however, is its photo management tool.  I used ACDSee Picture Manager, among other things, in the past, the management of photo in ACDSee was really good and intuitive. The following functions have been really practical in ACDSee that I find missing in LR.

    • Group (in addition to sorting) by almost any criteria - original date, day, month, camera, focal, etc..
    • Display a number any of attirbutes - camera, resolution, size, etc.
    • batch renaming practice
    • Travel and single copy

    As you can see, these are all file management functions. LR has these functions as well?

    If this isn't the case, maybe I'll have to use both tools after all - LR for development and ACDSee Photo Manager for managing files.

    Certainly, Lightroom is a photo management tool that compares well with ACDSee. There are probably advantages and disadvantages to each, but everything on your list is present in LR except display resolution (if by that you mean pixels per inch of the photo).

    1. Grouping, as this can be done through the bar filter or smart collections
    2. The metadata panel displays the attributes
    3. F2 rename batch
    4. Move photos is done via the Control Panel folder. LR does not copies, as the paradigm Lightroom does not make real copies. It includes no virtual copies. Of course, you can create copies via another tool, the file-> export. You can make copies in your operating system.

    But if you want LR to have the same flow of work/features/ease of use/etc, like ACDSee (or Bridge, Photoshop Elements or any other program), let's be honest, it's not. The programs work differently. You will need to learn the methods and mechanics of each program. Each has its advantages and disadvantages, and LR has a lot of 'pros' for its photo management tools.

  • is there a way to get rid of folders but not the photos on a mac disk?

    Hi im a user of Pc (sorry) anyway I got a car from a friend and it was from his old macbook, which was damaged, he recently got a new and unfortunately all her pictures have disappeared and it is not returning people at future shop quoted $500 for them to transfer the data from the hard drive to another which is a big load of crap because in about 5 minutes online, I discovered how to access mac drives without having to download all programs do for me and without fail.anyways I was wondering if it is a tool that can be used to move all the photos or videos on a disc in a single or 2 files so that the files can be deleted and all the photos in one place. photos are distributed between 6000 records that there are more than 12,000 photos and I do not want to sift through hours of dragging and fall should always be.

    Summary of the problem: there are 12000 pictures spread over 6000 records and I want them all in one or two files without passing to sift through all the records by hand.
    Thanks, hope someone can help me

    I have more than the app, iPhoto, on my computer, but it's on the computer you have now? If so, I think there is a setting in preferences to pick up all the pictures on the disc, then put them in an iPhoto library. You can then pass the library to your friend.

    Although he is not happy as it seems the value in its own way to organize photos and not organized in a single database.

    With a little research, you may be able to find a way to put all the photos in Google Photos https://www.google.com/photos/about/

    By the way there isanother discussion group appropriate more your hardware. They may be better positioned to help with this or future questions. Or to the search for solutions.

  • How can I get a driver for an Epson Stylus Photo 950 printer that works with Windows 7?

    Original title: How can I get a driver for an Epson Stylus Photo 950 printer that works with Windows 7?

    It is not listed in the list of printer drivers and I can't find anywhere on the web.

    Hello

    http://www.Epson.co.UK/printers-and-all-in-ones/inkjet/Epson-Stylus-Photo-950/drivers-support?target=article&Extn=.html&articleid=3394

    This article from Epson says that the driver is included in Windows 7.

    I don't see any info out there that clearly explains how to add it.  It simply States that you must go to "add a printer".  Looks like you already did this well.

    I would say following upward with support from Epson to see if they can offer some better instructions. Want to know if your hardware current & software will work with Windows 7? Click on these links: *Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor * *Windows 7 Compatibility Center*.

  • Using Lr test, I managed to copy photos in the Catalogue and in development. Now, I want to use the photo developed/published as master and delete the original. So using the "modified" as the new source version. What is the process to do this?

    Using Lr test, I managed to copy photos in the Catalogue and in development. Now, I want to use the photo developed/published as master and delete the original. So using the "modified" as the new source version. What is the process to do this?

    This is to manually remove the master files. But are you sure you want to do this? Especially if these files are raw files? If you do, you throw a lot of precious image data. Remember that the main files are completely intact and in their original state at any time. The catalog stores all the changes that you make. But if you really want to delete your master files, you need just to delete them individually or as a group.

  • Whenever I have move photos from one folder to another file, the picture is no longer accessible.

    I use Windows XP - perfectly up-to-date.  Whenever I have move photos from one folder to another file, the picture is no longer available and cannot be removed with using unlocker.  This has happened for several years.  I copy pictures and new folders whenever I want to move them, but sometimes I forget and move them and then I lose the picture I'm trying.  I also noticed that there is a strange file that opens in the trash that won't let me remove it without using unlocker. These files start with "Dd" followed be a number.  When I delete these use unlocker, another will appear the a different number on this subject.  It is a very maddening problem.  It is not possible for me to do a system restore because it lasts for quite awhile.  Please help - I'm tired of losing pictures that I can't replace.  Thank you for your help.

  • Desktop Window Manager has stopped working and was closed

    One of our machines (HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC running Windows Vista x 64) will receive the error "Desktop Window Manager has stopped working and was closed" with lots of close error. He reappears (as well as all windows flasher to non-aero, then back to aero) in a few minutes, spends about 5 times per hour.

    I did some research on this and have already taken the following measures without a bit of luck:

    1 run the command chkdsk / SFC scan - nothing found via chkdsk, SFC found some issues fixed, and some, it did not set. Them that it solves not all related to Windows Sidebar, which I do not / does not start.

    2. put updated drivers for ATI Radeon 3200HD - this had a lot of new questions. Installing caused newer drivers ATI catalyst to no longer work with errors during installation and popup errors at startup. After trying several solutions workaround to try to get installed it, I ended up coming back to the driver that came with the laptop, that are properly installed and working without error. I am skeptical of update of this stable driver as a solution to the dwm.exe error.

    3. this problem just started yesterday, that occur with not a lot of changes. Other than updates of windows (I think that .NET framework and a few other updates installed), I replaced NOD32 antivirus with Bitdefender antivirus. The system was stable with bitdefender for about 2 weeks, so I'm not convinced that this program is causing the error.

    4. the event viewer shows the following:

    Failing application Dwm.exe, version 6.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e02696, failed module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6002.18881, time stamp 0x51da3d16, exception code 0 x 80000003, offset 0x00000000000461f0, process id 0 x 124 error, start the application time 0x01cea0365a457adc.

    Offset, process id and start on time all vary, but there are a lot of these application errors in the viewer all screaming Dwm.exe like the failing application.

    What should be my next course of action?

    You do not receive an error but a caveat. NTStatus results (the set of codes execption used by ntdll - the failed module) begin to 0 for no error, 4 for information (you should never see this), 8 for putting guard and C for error.

    It's your specific error.

    //
    MessageId: STATUS_BREAKPOINT
    //
    MessageText:

    EXCEPTION {}
    Breakpoint
    A breakpoint has been reached.
    //
    #define STATUS_BREAKPOINT ((NTSTATUS) 0x80000003L) / / winnt

    Problem is, you shouldn't have breakpoints. Breakpoints are set by debuggers and stop the execution of the program to the State of the program can be examined. There should be no breakpoints in a retail system. More breakpoints are inserted into memory during execution of the program in a debugger. They tend not to do in the actual file.

    So here are two assumptions, either you have no exit code, IE test code (driver?). Or you have a running program that behaves like a debugger (which is suspect).

    Each of the three towers of programs, services, and drivers in increasing amounts. So restrict the possible culprits.

    Clean boot

    Click Start - all programs - Accessories - run and type
     
    msconfig
    
     
    Then go to the Startup tab uncheck everything. Then go to the Services tab check hide all Microsoft Services and uncheck everything that is left.

     
    Reset. If this resolves your wake problem ½ of services / of startup items until you find that one.

    Tip clean boot

    If the above does not help.

    Download Autoruns http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

    Start the program by right-clicking and choosing run as administrator and click on the menu Options - Filter Options and check hide Microsoft entries and disable include the empty slots. Uncheck the box just to the left.

    Reset. If this resolves your wake problem half of the items until you find the one that.

    Safe mode

    If the above does not help.

    Click Start - all programs - Accessories - run and type
