Question: smart album with no keywords

Hello

I keep my pictures organized by keywords.

When organizing my library in iPhoto, I used a smart album named any keyword with condition 'keyword is not.

Is there a way to do this in Photos?

It seems there is no option to 'none '.

Thank you

There is no documented option to create an album smart wih "keyword is not".

You can use a work cycle: rename all of your keywords to start with a fixed prefix "k::" or similar.  And search for photos with "text does not include" k:: "to find the photos without keywords."

  • Smart album with face East/includes returns no results

    System specifications:

    2012, mac Mini, 16 GB RAM, Core i7, El Capitan, Photos v1.3

    I recently tried to create a new Smart Album with the following rules:

    Face is (OR includes)

    The date is in the range of 01/01/2015 to 31/12/2015

    Even though I KNOW there should be results, Photos Returns none. If I remove the filter from the Face, I get all the pictures of 2015, as you would expect.

    I have a Smart Album that is put in place as this for each year - previous have been imported into iPhoto, which was able to handle this without problems. When I tried to open these, all the pictures inside of them were no longer part of the album. They were always in my library, but were no longer in the Smart Album.

    If I try to create a Smart Album with face IS NOT and a range of dates, I get all the pictures of the year DO NOT include the person. Therefore, it seems that only try to INCLUDE faces is broken.

    I read a thread where someone had a similar problem and it has been suggested - apparently with some success - the filter of the Face has been changed to a text. I tried this and still have nothing.

    Is it a known issue on the Photos, is there a solution?

    The faces rule works on its own - a smart album with only 'face includes... '. » ?

    For me, it's the Face or Face includes constraint works well in Photos 1.3.

  • 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.

    Report the problem to Apple via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

  • 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 missing after upgrade to 10.11.1 (iPhoto for pictures)

    Hey people,

    I recently updated my OS to 10.11, backup of my iPhoto on an external HD libraries.  After copying the libraries to return to the folder of photos, then raise Photos, just what some of my smart albums are missing.

    In addition, many of my pictures seem to have their error keywords.  I tried to redo one of smart albums, and he ended up including lots of pictures which shouldn't be there.  I hit apple - I to get the info on the photo and I noticed several photos in a row that were not supposed to be there all had the same exact keywords which they shouldn't have.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you!

    Update:

    I did a smart album with one of the wrong keywords and found that the keyword was applied to a very limited number of photos.

  • Adding Favorites to the Smart Album

    I have a bunch of pictures, and they were all taken on March 7, 2016. And there are 500 of them.

    And only 150 of them are "Favorites" with the symbol of the heart.

    So how can I configure my selections smart albums for taken March 7, 2016 FAVORITES are all in the SMART ALBUM?

    There is no drop-down list in the smart album to Favorites.  What is happening is that all 500 photos taken March 7, 2016 will appear in the Smart album.

    Open your favorite smart album, select all the pictures and assign a key word, 'XXXX '.

    Now create a smart album with the following criteria:

    Key word is 'XXXX '.

    The date is 03-07-2016.

  • Smart album by date range does not select all the pictures, it should.

    I created a Smart Album with a range of the year.

    Some pictures appear in the Smart Album, but others do not, even though their information shows that their date corresponds to the range.

    I tried a repair of the photo library database, but that did not help.

    Try breaking the rule of date range: a buggy behavior reported in some language settings.

  • search with the keyword in the title of the album - showing not

    When I got iPhotos / before I upgraded to El Capitan, voluntarily I named a couple of albums with the same word so I can see them all together in the search for this word.  Now, when I do a search, a list of all albums showing on the right.  The photos are not displayed.  Is it possible to view the photos instead of just the titles of the album?  Thank you.

    Now, when I do a search, a list of all albums showing on the right.

    You can click on the albums in the list to open them one by one. But research will not display the photos in the album. You will need to add the keyword to the individual photos in the album to show the photos in the list.

  • Smart albums show is not on Air iPad and iPod Touch 6

    I have a Macbook Pro (end of 2013), an Air of iPad and iTouch.  Only Albums will display on iPad and iTouch.  I have all my photos (29 000), sorted by smart Albums using keywords.  No matter if I sync via Wifi or USB, no. smart Albums will show!  What I am doing wrong? When I want to create collages on iPad or I won't maintain a smart album AND a normal album of the same name.  But I can't view the smart albums on my iPod 6th generation.  Why is this?  I sync via Wi - Fi and even when I sync via USB on my Macbook Pro on Macbook Albums are not listed the same when looking on my iPod.  Smart Albums do not at all show.  Had to create a normal Album.

    If you use iCloud photo library on the iPad, only the standard albums can be synchronized, because the Photos.app on the iPad does not support custom smart albums.

    To synchronize your smart albums for mobile devices I would return to the synchronization with iTunes Sync Photo.  (Photos of sync for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch in iTunes - Apple Support).  It will transfer the photos from your smart albums as well.

    But this requires that you disable iCloud photo library on your iPad.   If you decide to disable iCloud photo library, first be sure to select 'Download this Mac originals' in the iCloud Photos preferences pane, then all your original photos can be downloaded from iCloud to your iPad. Be sure to leave your originals to download before shutting iCloud library completely.

  • 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?

    Concerning

    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.

  • PSE9/Win 7: Can I create a Smart Album of all images that do not have a certain tag?

    With the help of PSE9 on Windows 7.

    I would like to create a Smart Album that contains all images that do not have a particular tag.

    When I click on create new Smart Album dialog box allows me to select "key words".

    But I'm calling "Include". I can select the tags I want.

    Basically, I want to include it in "exclude".

    Any way to do something like that?

    Hello

    You can try this.

    (1) view all photos

    (2) check the keyword tag you are interested in

    (3) under Options, Select hide correspond better results & show results that do not match (i.e. reverse the last two conditions).

    to read

    That should show you what you wanted to see

    (4) now use the option high save search criteria as Smart Album and give it a name

    This seems to remember the conditions reversed and the tag.

    Good luck

  • 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.
