Stay out of the finder. You do not access your photos there. iPhoto organizes that folder so that it can find things for you when you use the app. The 3 versions are needed -- one is the thumbnails so that iPhoto can load quicker, one is the Modified folder that keeps up with all photos that...

Hole down the option key while starting iPhoto. You will be prompted to choose a library or create one. If you already have your library on an external, you can choose that one. iPhoto will point to that library until you change it back by doing the same thing again. If you don't already...

For the photos that have already been imported, you can select them, click on Photo on the menubar, then "adjust date & time" and correct it there. Be sure to check "adjust files" (or whatever it says - not at the mac right now so doing this from memory). Setting your camera will keep things...

Are you sure you have your camera set properly for the date? If you don't have it set at all, that would explain why iPhoto is using the current date.

What method did you use to export to your zip drive? Did you do this from within iPhoto app or from within the library in finder? If you did from finder, that is your problem. Don't do anything to/with your library in finder -- the behavior you are seeing will result. You may try a...

Here is the way Apple says to do it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1229

I like to remove all email addresses from that window periodically. Keeps things nice and neat an does not affect the address book at all.

So, tell us what you found out!

To upload photos, drag the photo from the iPhoto app to the desktop and upload from there. You can also use the export function in the app to do the same thing, but that will allow you to choose what size you want to upload. Never go into the finder for your photos. Doing so will cause iPhoto...

Have you installed it in your applications folder? Give us more information as to what exactly you have done, and where you are in the process and we can help.

I go there and regularly delete all of the autofills just to keep things neat. Lots of times I only email a person one time (like for an eBay sale), and I don't want to take a chance on sending something to the wrong person. Deleting all of them has no effect on your address book, addresses...

If you are not running Leopard, try iPhoto Diet. Works well, but unfortunately has not been updated for Leopard (at least the last time I looked). Just be sure to read the prompts and think about what you are telling it to do. As VirtualTracy said "You're dealing with (possibly)...

Don't think so, but you could create a new event for just those and then drag the items from the web into that event. That way they will all be in one place and not scattered about. Could make several events, by subject, perhaps, and organize that way.

If you just want them in a way that only iPhoto can read -- truly a "backup", just select the photos you want to backup and use the "burn" button in iPhoto. These will not be able to be read by other programs nor PC's, but are a good backup for your own computer. If you want to copy them to a...

If you have the same photos in the iPhoto library as are in a file outside of the iPhoto library (for instance, just in your "Pictures" folder, then you can delete the ones in the "Pictures" folder. The only thing that iPhoto duplicates that it needs to work are the "modified" versions of your...

The app is not your problem. The problem is that you altered your photos in the finder. NEVER do anything to/with your photos in the finder. The first thing I would try is to reair permissions. If that does not help, try to rebuild your library like this...

The "burn" in iPhoto is really meant as a means to back up your photos so that they can be used by iPhoto. To use your photos on a PC or other, use the export function from within iPhoto app texport your selection to your desktop and then burn to a CD/DVD using Toast, Disk Utility, etc. Be...

To use google maps, you would need to have a wi-fi connection. Not very practical for what you want to do. The maps are stored on the server, not the device, so even though they dont change often, if you have no internet connection, you have no maps. the iPhone, though, because it uses a data...

You can try to insert your original restore disks and add the apps from there. or, you can put your system back to its as-new condition from your restore disks, and then install Leopard using Archive and Install rather than a "clean" install.

Well, for starters, you can't just drag 'n drop songs into iTunes Library (if that is where you are dragging to -- if you are dragging to the app, or the icon on the dock, then that is another story). They need to be "imported" to be able to be used. Just like iPhoto -- can't just drag into...
