With better ways to get your photos online and new options for creating printed projects, iPhoto 11 makes it easier than ever to transfer photos from a digital camera, organize them, and publish, print, or share them in mapsbut theres still no printed manual for the program. Fortunately, David Pogue and Lesa Snider team up in this witty, authoritative book that should have been in the box.Organize your collection. Discover all of the options for grouping your picturesby events, in albums, or based on whos in the photo or where it was taken. Sharpen your editing skills. Learn how to use iPhotos beefed-up editing options, including its Photoshop-like adjustments panel. Share images online. Get your photos to everyone on your list by publishing them to Flickr, Facebook, and MobileMe. Dive into creative projects. Have fun building slideshows (with music), gift books, calendars, and cards. 5 Tips from the Author Flags are a great way to mark photos for deletion en masse (instead of deleting them one at a time). As soon as you import photos, take a spin through em and, when you find one you want to delete, click to select its thumbnail and then press Command - . (thats the Command key plus the period key) to flag it. Alternatively, hover your cursor over photos thumbnail and then click the tiny gray flag that appears in its top right (it looks like a miniature pennant). Either way, youll see a tiny orange pennant appear at the thumbnails top left. Once youre finished, click Flagged in your Source list, choose Select All to highlight all the flagged thumbnails, and then press the Delete key. When iPhoto asks if youre sure you want to delete those photos, click OK and poof! iPhoto moves all those photos into its very own trash. Need to split an Event into two? Open the Event and click the thumbnail you want to mark the start of the new Event, and then press the S key. Its as simple as that! Want to see the month and year your photos were taken as youre scrolling through thumbnails in either Events or Photos view? Youre in luck! Choose iPhoto Preferences and turn on Show informational overlays. Now, next time you scroll through thumbnails, youll see the month and year appear in the middle of the viewing area. Sweet! Cruising around in Photos view can be a little overwhelming, especially when all of the Event names are expanded so you see thousands of thumbnails. The fix is to collapse all the Events en masse by Option-clicking the flippy triangle to the left of the Events name in the main photo-viewing area. That way you can expand them one at a time as you wish. (Option- clicking a collapsed flippy triangle will expand them all, too.) Smart Albums and Faces tags are the perfect way to quickly put together a slideshow for your next party. For example, if youve tagged friends and family using Faces, you can create a Smart Album by simply dragging someones picture from the Faces corkboard into an empty area in your Source list. If you want to add another person to that Smart Album, simply drag his image into the same Smart Album to create a self-populating album of just those two people.

Acknowledgments

The Missing Manual series is a joint venture between Pogue Press (the dream team introduced on these pages) and OReilly Media (a dream publishing partner). Im indebted, as always, to Tim OReilly, Laurie Petrycki, Peter Meyers, and the rest of the gang.

I also owe a debt of gratitude to my old Yale roommate Joe Schorr, who coauthored the first two editions of this book and wound up, years later, working at Apple, where he eventually became the product manager for Aperture andhows this for irony?iPhoto. Some of his prose and his humor live on in this edition.

Various editions of this book have also enjoyed the prose stylings of professional photographer/writer Derrick Story and fellow New York Times tech columnist Jude Biersdorfer. Above all, it was my pleasure to welcome Lesa Snider, who cheerfully undertook the challenge of updating this book to reflect the changes in iPhoto 11 without making it sound like two different authors were at work. She did a sensational job.

Above all, thanks to Kelly, Tia, and Jeffrey, whose patience and sacrifices make these booksand everything elsepossible.

David Pogue

What a huge treat it was to update this book! While I served as photographer/production assistant on previous editions, as coauthor I was able to pore over every word, feature, and figure in order to create a bright and cheery (yet comprehensive) book. And in doing so, Im continually amazed at the ease of use, organizational, and editing power of iPhoto. Im really proud of the way the book turned out, and I hope youll enjoy it, too. (FYI, all the photography in this edition came from my trusty Canon 40D and Canon PowerShot S90.)

Of course, a million thanks go to David Pogue for teaching me how to make every figure a work of art, as well as how to write in an entertaining yet informative manner. His guidance has been the foundation for my career in more ways than I can count.

Thanks also to my editor, Dawn Mann, for her amazing attention to detail, and also to Douglas Bergre, who tech-edited this edition.

Last but not least, I owe a galactic debt of gratitude to my husband, Jay Nelson, for being incredibly supportive during this project and for keeping me, and our two loving cats, fed and watered.

The Missing Manual Series

Missing Manuals are witty, superbly written guides to computer products that dont come with printed manuals (which is just about all of them). Each book features a handcrafted index; cross-references to specific pages (not just chapters); and Rep-Kover, a detached-spine binding that lets the book lie perfectly flat without the assistance of weights or cinder blocks.

Chapter 1. Introduction

In case you havent heard, the digital camera market is exploding. At this point, a staggering 98 percent of cameras sold are digital cameras. Its taken a few decadesthe underlying technology used in most digital cameras was invented in 1969but film photography has been reduced to a niche activity.

And why not? The appeal of digital photography is huge. When you shoot digitally, you dont pay a cent for film or photo processing. You get instant results, viewing your photos just moments after shooting them, making even Polaroids seem painfully slow by comparison. As a digital photographer, you can even be your own darkroom technicianwithout the darkroom. You can retouch and enhance photos, make enlargements, and print out greeting cards using your home computer. Sharing your pictures with others is far easier, too, since you can burn them to CD or DVD, email them to friends, or post them on the Web. As one fan puts it, There are no negatives in digital photography.
