Photos app contains iPhoto events, do not understand.

Since the upgrade of the Mavericks to Yosemite (and now ElCapitan) my photo library contains my old iPhoto events. Here are my questions:

(1) my iMac shows that I have 27 000 photos, but all my other devices I have 11 000 pictures.

(2) ' iPhoto events' contains 393 events, but many of them are grayed out? These photos to go and how can - I recover?

(3) I still have the iPhoto application. Can I trash the app or will remove that somehow all my iPhotos currently on the Photos app? Is it possible to merge the iPhoto events in the rest of the Photos app so that I don't have to deal with the old iPhoto?

1 & 2.  A great basic list may take several days, or even weeks, to migrate and syncs to iCloud, then to your devices. The 'missing' and grated the elements, might simply need more time.

3. Yes, finally you can remove the iPhoto app and the iPhoto library, but leave the long until you're absolutely, positively sure that the migration to the Photos is successful. There are no big rush, that you won't get a lot of accumulation by removing.

  • Photo Album vs iPhoto event

    I always prefer iPhoto Photos but because at some point, I'm sure he will be eliminated, I strive gradually switch to the pictures. One thing really miss me is the iPhoto EVENTS. I can almost do the same thing by creating albums, but one thing miss me is the the "description" field, I had of events. I could essentially tell a short story that applied to all the photos to the event and then put exclusive details in the description field of the individual photos in this case. Before I have to abandon the idea, I want to be sure miss me not only how do. Is there a way to put in a common description that applies to all photos in the album?

    Select all the images you want as a group; Get information by pressing command + I. You can then add the common text for the Description field, but notes that there are other, perhaps more appropriate to use fields. To add specific image descriptions, run Get Info on individual photos.

  • Cannot crop the construction in the Photo app in Windows RT

    I can't crop at the time to choose some photos of my library of images in the Photos app. The option is not available when I slide to the bottom. Here are some examples:

    https://SkyDrive.live.com/

    I understand the nit option could be available for photos on some places, but they are in my local library. If I select the pictures on certain issues it works, others it just doesn't work. But if I open the same images with a soft of different pictures like Fhotoroom, I'm able to crop and edit without any problem at all.

    Help, please.

    Thank you

    All images are in the same format - for example, you can change some jpg files, but not all? Earlier, I noticed that I couldn't change a screenshot, which is in PNG format.

    I was able to resize images PNG using Paint (Yes, the ol' desktop application ' Paint is included on the Surface).

    In the beginning, type Paint.

    Hope this helps,

  • How can I add my iPhoto events to the Photos app again?

    Is it possible to do if I already have a library of Photos put in place application? is it possible to reset so he invites me to ask if I want to import my iPhotos events?

    Photos cannot merge libraries, but you can open as many libraries in the Photos as you want.

    To open your iPhoto Library Library in pictures drag the iPhoto icon library in the Dock of Photos.  This will create a new library of pictures of him and open it in Photos.

    See this help page on how to work with more than a library of Photos: https://help.apple.com/photos/mac/1.0/?lang=en#/pht6d60b524

  • I don't see my iphoto events account more in the display of the Photo Album

    My apologies if this question has already been submitted, but I couldn't find an appropriate solution to this day.

    Photo app has properly downloaded all my photos from iPhoto and I can see them in Moments - Photos full discovers.  However, I used to see my old photos in a folder named "iphoto events" using the view of the Albums. This iphoto events simply disappeared - is missing after a software update.  I do not see my old photos (from iPhoto) classified into events more - they are all dispersed by the dates in the full view of Moments.

    I get this "event iphoto folder" for Albums?  Why pictures show all files from iphotos in times of the year but cannot group by events more?

    Really appreciate apple or group of support on this issue.

    You have albums showing? You have the sidebar displayed or hidden? What has changed since the record was there? What software upgrade you did it?

  • Photo app, not recognizing my iPhone 5

    I have an iPhone 5 and a Macbook Pro of the retina. Both are updated and works great except that I can't get my Photos app to recognize that my iPhone is plugged. I have not yet owned this Macbook Pro for more than a week yet and it's brand new. I had my iPhone in January is also new. My iTunes is picking up that my iPhone is plugged, but my Photos app refuses to do... When I plugged in for the first time my phone into the laptop, the other day, I was in a hurry and did not want to import all the photos in time but my Photos app picked up my iPhone. Now, it is not the case... What I'm doing! I want my Photos app just to take my iPhone, and I would like to import photos. I don't want to have to go through the Capture of Image or any other application to do. Such a pain. Please help me!

    iPhone not appearing is not on the top bar. It should tell Katie iPhone and show my photos...

    iTunes showing my iPhone in the top bar.

    I don't understand why the Photos app isn't picking it up but still iTunes. I never had these problems with iPhoto and iTunes on my old Macbook.

    Sorry, I meant to type iPhone 6. I don't have an iPhone 5 more.

  • iPhoto and photo apps, put photos in files?

    I recently bought a 2014 refurbished MacBook Pro and found that the iPhoto update is not available to the Canada and was not long rendered unusable app. All my photos have, therefore, to be added to the normal photos app. In the photos app, I have not been able to find a way to put my photos in files without putting them in two different places. Has anyone found a way to put their photos in folders without doing that? And putting pictures in two separate locations takes extra space on the computer? I have over 1000 pictures on my computer and really want them to be in the files so that they are easy to manage, but I don't want to take more space on my computer. I just switched to Mac, a Windows system and it's the only thing that I find I miss on windows and don't like Mac computers.

    update to iPhoto information see can't update iPhoto because it is not available in the App Store

    Yes, if you have two photos places (in the library of Photos and outside it) you will be double used space

    Photos can use a referenced library, but it is a very bad idea, there is no advantage and accumulated several problems for the future - and is not recommended

    Probably the answer for you is to use different software that works the way you want - Photos is a modern database manager that uses the non-destructive editing and cannot be used with your wishes of a destructive file based editing system - you can change the software or change your workflow to modern methods

    One of the rules of life is that people don't like the things that they do not understand - so either change and use something you understand or learn the new system if you do not understand it or you will continue to be unhappy

  • iPhoto events?  I want to CONVERT but NOT Album... possible?

    I update for Mac OS and I have a folder called events iPhoto in Photos with 1400 events, mainly just some simple pictures.  I've read some threads here that explain how to convert in Albums, but I don't like albums that I already have my albums put in place.  I want just the missing file (my OCD)... without losing the photos.  Or are these copies and I just delete?  And suggestions or help is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Steve

    Those who already are the albums - when you migrate an iPHoto library your iPhoto events are converted to photo albums and stored in a folder 'iPHoto events' names - that are not options, that's what happened when you migrated - How Photos handles content and metadata for iPhoto and Aperture - Apple Support

    Now you can manage the albums as you like - combining them, deleting them, placing them in different or ignorant folders

    and like all the pictures, they are simply a way to view photos - they are not a place or duplicates but simply a view of photos in your library

    To remove an album right click (control click) on it and select Delete album

  • Confused.  Try to understand the Photo app Syncing iCloud

    Hi, just bought myself an old 5s iPhone which is big for me.

    I have some questions on how the Photos sync app works on my Mac.  I have a Mac mini desktop computer.

    This sharing of photos is incredible, but I am very new to it and get confused what is actually happening.

    I activated the option "Upload automatically to iCloud" on my iPhone but when I look on my desktop Mac that I do not see my most recent photos appear in the folder called 'iPhone' in my desktop version of Photos.  To get my downloaded photos I must actively download them from my phone.

    This folder has appeared after I connected my iPhone to my Mac via the USB cable.  I did this because someone on Facebook said.  This iTunes open for some reason and other things started happening that I don't understand.  I wanted to share pictures, not tunes and he tried to update but the Wi - fi wasn't working at the time so he kept failing.  When I checked the Wi - Fi works on my phone, it updated but iTunes kept trying to update.  Then the iPhone suddenly had all the records that I had done in Photos on my Mac, but the records were all empty.  Yet, all the Photos I had taken on my iPhone that day appeared on my Mac.  Now finally some pictures randomly my Mac on my iPhone as well and I do not understand why.  Then, when I open Facebook on my iPhone, the pictures that I had taken to a family visit appeared there with a musical slideshow!  What is everything?

    How does this work?  It works by sending photos of the invisible iCloud, which means that it requires action by me to make them appear in my desktop?  In this case, this mean I'll have hundreds, maybe thousands of images are circulating in the iCloud I can forget and end up running out of space on my iCloud?  Or do they stay on my phone until I have actively download them on my Mac?  If I turn off the automatic function, will I still be able to send photos to my Mac?

    If I delete a photo on my Mac, it will also disappear from my iPhone (and vice versa)?

    I have a lot of other questions but my poor old brain melting now and I forgot what I was going to ask, so I'll post them later.

    Thank you for your patience.  I'm old (and a bit thick).

  • Photos app cannot import iPhoto library

    My iPhoto library is quite large, 32 GB for 9 500 items.  I've recently updated my operating system and related applications, and when I use the Photo app to import the old iPhoto library, it shows 'Prepare the library' and starts the import process, but hangs up to 24% each time.  When I look in the pictures folder, I find a folder called "Photo library" normal which is fully navigable (I don't have to display the contents of the package), and find a file titled 'Masters' who is the same size as the iPhoto 'Originals' folder.  I then tried to circumvent the import process by default app Photos, creating a new library, and then import the file of masters - it finds about 9 100 files to import, short of 9 500 originals).  If I anything I'll miss 400 originals, not to mention the modified in iPhoto versions.

    I found a lot of people pointing out the import problems, but none that hangs up the same and every time, and no one Ive seen publishes the solution.

    What version of iPhoto do you have?

    Where your iPhoto library?

    Abd you are not importing the iPhoto library - you migrate - if she has not moved on initial launch drag the iPhoto library to Photos icon in the Dock

  • Should I delete iPhotos when I get the Photos app?

    I have Photos and iPhoto on my iMac. I am satisfied with the Photos app. Can I just move the iPhoto application to the trash?  What happens to my library of photos, movies etc. ?

    You can, but it is not recommended

    The iPhoto application takes up very little space and is very difficult (if not impossible) to recover if you want or you need

    And delete the iPhoto library will recover very little space- Photos saves disk space to share images with your iPhoto or Aperture - Apple Support libraries

  • Can't access my photos more iPhoto since update to El Captain... pictures don't merge to Photo app, how can I restore them?

    Can't access my photos more iPhoto since update to El captain. photos merged to Photo app, how to restore? Another operating system it will correct?

    Cannot access my photos iPhoto since update to El captain

    To use iPhoto on El Capitan, update iPhoto version 9.6.1.

    If you don't have day before the upgrade of the El Capitan, see: user tip Barney: cannot be updated iPhoto because it is not available in the App Store#.

    The El Capitan upgrade removes just the iPhoto in the Dock icon. Have you looked into your Applications folder, if iPhoto is still there?

    photos merged to Photo app, how to restore? Another operating system it will correct?

    You can open the iPhoto library in pictures by dragging the icon in the Dock of Photos in the iPhoto library.

    It requires that the library is on a compatible player.  The library must be on a local drive mounted, not a NAS, and file system must be in Mac OS extended (journaled). The reader doesn't have to be a Time Machine drive.

    What version of iPhoto created your iPhoto library.  If the version of iPhoto is iPhoto 7.1.2 or more, you must prepare the iPhoto with iPhoto Library upgrade library.    iPhoto 11: on the development of library
