  • Yes, you are to stay out of the library in finder. Iphoto does it this way so that you do not corrupt your photos by mucking about in the finder. When you want to upload to Facebook, etc. choose your photo from within the iPhoto app, export to de…
  • In iPhoto, click on the "email" button. It will prompt you to tell it what size to send. Or, you can select the photo, choose file>export and it, too will ask what size you want to export it to. Export to your desktop and then mail or upload …
  • I, too, use iPhoto -- great little app, especially for the general user. If you are a professional, then its not for you, but for standard photo organization, manipulation, emailing, etc., its great.
  • We had a Brother AIO that worked pretty well. However, I could only put about 8 photos in it at a time, or it would pull multiple photos at once, and then I'd have to look at the file to see what got missed, and re-do them. Much quicker and easier…
  • I am using a Canon LiDE scanner with good results. The sheet-fed scanners work, but the one I had wanted to grab several photos at a time. The Canon will do "multi-scan", so, depending on size of the original, I can scan up to 6 photos at one time…
  • I know for a fact that there will be some cooking shows on Joost, because I know the chef involved, and was even part of a taping that was done a couple of weeks ago. Not sure when that is going live, though. Waiting anxiously!

  • That feature does not exist. No alarms for birthdays added from the Address Book. Hopefully in the next version. Sorry!
  • Yes, there is a batch change feature. Not at the mac right now, but think it is under the "photo" dropdown on the top menu (look around, you'll find it). You can batch change the name, date, time, etc. all at once. Just select your photos, click …
  • Then the next thing you need to do is to learn how to use iPhoto. You are making life much too hard on yourself by importing, exporting, naming and reimporting! Are you by chance a former Windows user? In the future, just attach your camera (or c…
  • I was not told to keep such devices away from my pacemaker. However, I was told that I WOULD set off the security devices at the airports. After two years of frequent travel, I have NEVER set off the alarms. So, can't be too sensitive!
  • What I hate more is when iTunes just decides to "lose" my podcasts. I get the exclamation point, and I am told that iTunes can't find the podcast - would I like to locate it? And then it can't be located! So, in effect, iTunes is deleting my podc…
  • How about sharing your fix? Maybe some of us could benefit from your experience!
  • I use a freeware called YUM!. Works great, and has the extra feature of being able to cut and paste into its windows. I get a recipe e-zine each day, and when I want to save the recipe, I can just copy and paste. Other software I have tried won't…
  • You can convert them with iSquint. That may be laborious as you have do many gigs, though. There is an option in iTunes, that will allow you to "convert for iPod". Open the Movies folder, select a movie and I think it's under "Tools" -- not at th…
  • I get something similar with my Brother all-in-one. I have it set to print wirelessly, so when I restart, it wants me to set up what Brother calls "Control Center" -- wants to know USB or network, etc. I'm never sure how to answer so I just cancel…
  • I do this and it works just fine. You can get some help here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.h...en/hlp144.html. Just select the external drive when it says to tell it where to store your photos. A little known feature of iPhoto is its abili…
  • O.K., WHERE is it you want to change the names? From within iPhoto, you can use the batch rename as explained above to change the name in the app. If you want to change it in the library, you are asking for trouble. Just trying to understand wher…
  • If you are changing names, etc from within the Finder, you are asking for trouble. Doing this will corrupt photos and your iPhoto app. Please stay out of the finder library for your own good. Renaming and moving files is tantamount to asking for …
