Using iPhoto and Photos together

Is - this here anyway to use iPhoto and pictures together until I have get used to the interface of Photos?

The Photos and both iPhoto 9.6.1 work on El Capitan.  You can have both applications open at the same time.

Only two applications have a different format for libraries of photos, so each of them uses a separate photo library.  If you edit photos in iPhoto, the changes will not appear in the photo library and vice versa.

You could use iPhoto and its library as your main library and import new photos in iPhoto, while exploring the Photos.  Once you are confident that the Photos will suffice your needs, open the iPhoto library in Photos and create a new library of pictures of him.  Then start to use the Photos as your main photo application.

    I use iPhoto and have more than 6,000 images in the main library.  I just realized that I have 7000 images in my iPhoto trash, some of which are duplicates of images in the main library.  I need to remove the iPhoto trash, but if I take these are images in the main library deleted duplicate or are they "separated" as soon as they are to the iPhoto trash?

    Empty iPhoto trash removes only the versions in the trash, not the versions that you still have in your events.

  • How can I use iPhoto importing photos from card reader?

    Aloha all, I really prefer to use iPhoto, or opening when importing photos from card, but Photos opens whenever I put in my camera card. In the preferences of the Photo, the choice to select what app to use when importing is gray. How can I make iPhoto, or even simply to capture Image open rather than Photos? I put iPhoto preferences to do this, but it seems pictures somehow overrides it. Tips, tips out there? Mahalo

    Try to set the default application to open the General preferences in iPhoto window:

    Do you know that iPhoto is no longer supported by Apple print shops so that all projects must be created and controls through Photos?  Just a heads-up.

    If the above does not work, you can kill all apps to open when a camera is connected with the following command in the Terminal application, posted by JadedEye:

    Re: Prevent DEFINITELY the Photos to open automatically

    in response to leonie

    OK, it worked for me on El Cap

    Open a terminal window

    Type the following in the terminal and press enter

    defaults write currentHost - com.apple.ImageCapture disableHotPlug - bool YES

    (followed by the return key or enter - ed)

    The exit of the terminal.

    Photos will run if you run, but it will not autolaunch on each connection to a camera or the card or reformatted the card.

    If you want to return Photos auto-launch almost everything, use the same command change YES no

    This correction has set my workflow back to normal without Photos of gd lance all the time.

    You must then manually run the application that you want to use with the memory card or camera.

  • iPhoto and Photos

    I use iPhoto. If I open the Photos app that I store in iPhoto automatically transfer to the app Photos still would continue to have access in iPhoto? I don't want to lose the use of iPhoto but am curious to see what there is in the Photos app. Thanks much for any help.

    You can launch the Photos app with the hold Option key and select the option to create a new empty library.  Or you can drag a copy of your iPhoto on Photos.app icon library to migrate your iPhoto library to a library of Photos to test.  You won't double the amount of used space on your hard drive for Photos uses hard links to the masters photos in the iPhoto library for these photos present at the time of the migration.

    When you connect iPhone or camera photo library can be the first to open so that you can put do not open by unchecking this box in the Photos with your iPhone connected:

    A solution may be better applications to opening when iPhone is connected is to go into general iPhoto preferences panel (before creating a library of Photos) and set the Open with setting to "no application":

    If you need to manually launch the application to use after plugging in your iPhone or your camera.

  • 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.

    several things

    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 and photos, delete the iPhoto library?

    After that I've migrated a default iPhoto library during installation of the Photos, I no longer intend to use iPhoto,

    Delete the iPhoto library?

    If so, which file to remove - see PHOTO...

    All this without losing any data.

    PS

    I also use iCloud photo library - with my iOS and OS X devices - what is here?

    Thank you.

    You will not lose data if you delete the iPhoto library - you don't have an it's one you delete

    However is it discouraged because it will save very little space and you may want to or have need of the later - iPhoto library it is best to wait at least three months and when you remove it remember to archive everything first just in case where you want or need

  • Use iPhoto or Photos for books?

    Hello. I have more than a dozen iPhoto libraries, one for each year. What I do is make albums and then the books for my trips or a book each year. I'm back doing the books. Now with the Photos app (and faster, etc.), I wonder if I should migrate my iPhoto library Photos and allows to make albums and photo books? Is there any advantage in doing that? It would mean that I'll end up with several libraries of Photos, because it cannot allow me to combine several iPhoto Library in pictures.

    I thought I would like a link libraries, instead of importing thousands of same photos in the new libraries of Photos. So the main question is whether or not there is an advantage in the migration of all my libraries of iPhoto in the libraries of Photos, or simply stick with iPhoto and make my books there. Thank you.

    You can no longer print books in iPhoto in any case, because Apple has stopped the iPhoto book printing service.  If you want that your books printed by Apple, the new Photos.app as the only option now.  Photos Presto can print your iPhoto books, if export you it to a PDF file.

    If you open an iPhoto photo library, the library migrated will not need a lot of extra storage, see this document: Photos saves disk space to share images with your iPhoto or Aperture - Apple Support libraries

    Long term, it will be best to take Photos for Mac, because iPhoto will be less intense.

    A few options: If you also have the opening, you can easily merge all iPhoto libraries into one before migrating to Photos.

  • Migration assistant will consolidate iPhoto and photo libraries

    I just bought an iMac "towards the end of 2015" to replace my iMac 2011. I'm a Mac (MacBook Pro and iMac) user since 2005 and I am aware of the installation of the Migration Wizard when you first install a new Mac. However, for some reason, I have an iphotos library and a library of photos. Can anyone tell if migration assistant will consolidate in a single library or I have to do (manually?) before migration?

    Two follow-up questions (if you're still reading this...)

    iMovie is now only opens on my iMac 2011 (part of the reason why I bought a new iMac). There are projects that must still be finalized that it contains. Speculation as to whether the data migration is likely to result in my getting access to these existing projects? Worst case scenario would be that everything that is corrupt iMovie on my current iMac is transferred to the new machine. My guess is that what stop imovie to open 2011 on the iMac is not related to the data that make up the project, so that when I migrate to the new machine, I go back to my projects. Can anyone confirm this?

    Last question (base); What are the recommendations for what should be my time machine drive? I currently have 1 Tb internal, more an external of 2 to 3 TB of disk. With the new machine equipped with connectivity Thunderbolt that I will be in the market for a new external hard drive. because the new machine has 2 TB drive internal pot and am looking to get a disc hard thunderbolt of 3 - 4Tb, should I still 5-6 to time machine as backup (assuming I get nearby using all available space my on my internal and external drive)?

    Much appreciated for your advice.

    No, it won't merge.

    Using both programs such as libraries have different content that needs merging? When Photos import iPhoto library, it creates hard links to files, not copy, so they do not all the disk space.

    I can't respond to the #2.

    Your our backup drive should be two to three times the amount of data to back up.

  • iPhoto and photo library on hard drive storage

    I'm trying to free up space on my HD, and I've got this huge 'other' file.  Further investigation, it seems that he might actually reflect my pictures on my computer, despite photos apparently only 12.42 GB of space.

    But then my pictures folder contains 80,21 GB of data.  So, the 'library of Photo migrated' iPhoto said he composed 24.96 GB.  And the photo library makes 53,11 Go.  Can I delete the iPhoto library (is it a duplicate because it was migrated?)

    Yes. But you claim back so much space that you think that both applications share the masters BLAH common to both pictures.

  • Using PowerPoint and Captivate together - what are your best practices?

    HI - here are my two questions...

    (1) it seems that when you insert PowerPoint slides in CP7 and duplicate a slide - slide 2 is not a fresh new creation.  It is always related to the original slide & all changes to one of them in PowerPoint, a direct impact on other related slides.  I realize now that I can go back in PP and duplicate it... But it just seems like extra which steps.  Am I missing something here?

    (2) I would like to hear how others approach developers creating a new project of CP, using PowerPoint as a starting point.  Go you back or do you create new themes based on the drawings of PP and then copy and paste the content?  I guess I'm looking here for best practices.

    I appreciate your help!

    Denise

    Hello

    If you start from scratch, PowerPoint is a terrible thing to consider. Don't get me wrong it's a great tool for what it does. But the reason we see even any possibility for Captivate shoot in a PowerPoint presentation is because there are still masses of people out there who have hundreds of thousands of PowerPoint presentations they want to reallocate in e-learning. So it is to get this way managed job 'quick and dirty '.

    The process of importing a PowerPoint performs a conversion of the PowerPoint slide in Flash SWF file. Then, the SWF file is configured as the subject of the slide background. That's why when you duplicated the slide, you have seen the behaviour you have done.

    Here is that if you start from scratch, start with a blank Captivate project. Use PPT if you wish, but only as a design tool. Copy the images of PPT, then insert into Captivate.

    See you soon... Rick

  • using disticnt and nvl together

    Hello

    Is it possible to use with separate nvl?
    When no data is returned, the value must be 0.
    How can I use nvl in the code to get the value 0 when no data is returned?

    I tried to use separate (nvl(lbt.bsl_det_koers,0)), but it's always show "no data found".
    select  distinct(LBT.BSL_DET_KOERS)

    You can do it like this,
