#IPHOTO LIBRARY MANAGER 4.0.6 MAC#

I got a warning that my 50 GB Dropbox was 100% full, yet the Dropbox folder on my Mac was only showing 38 GB in size. I sync some of my iPhoto libraries between Macs using Dropbox. IPLM has once again proven to be an indispensable app. Just be sure not to run both versions at the same time - quit version 3 before running version 4 and vice versa. The two versions use a different naming convention for preference and cache files, so both versions can be used on the same Mac (if you upgraded from version 3 to version 4, your preference files from version 3 are still there).

Simply install version 3 of iPLM (see download link at top of MU listing) alongside version 4 (be sure to rename version 3 of the app to something like 'iPhoto Library Manager 3' before dragging it into the Applications folder, or install it somewhere else). We are looking into different (hopefully better) solutions for keeping photos from multiple libraries synced with an iPod or iOS device in the future though.'įortunately there is an easy solution if you want the iPod Folders feature in the meantime, until it's added back into version 4. I wrote the dev, who replied, 'The iPod Folders feature is no longer present in iPhoto Library Manager 4, for the time being at least. Im 30K pictures through (IT is pretty quick relative to what its doing) and the added benefit is it has called out 14 of the photos it just couldn't read back from the disk, which will allow me to selectively grab those back from my cloud backup.Įasy to use, lightweight and well worth it in this kind of situation.įYI: The 'iPod Folders' feature from version 3 is missing in version 4. I decided to split the one monolithic library up, and used iPLM to copy off the old iPhoto library into the new ones. This might sound corny, but this program saved my most valuables and time. Not wanting to individually copy all the masters and recreate iPhoto for ~40K pictures, i scoured for a solution. PROBLEM: because of disk corruption, there were parts of the library and pictures that couldn't be read and could fix with iPhoto - and therefore could not Copy the library to new drive! New SSD and a $20 CabletoGo SATA drive adapter (AWESOME and Great value BTW!) and I could get to my old drive which had the iPhoto Library on it. after a bunch of steps to get it back up, still lots of hard drive errors that even after repair still issues.

Well my 2.5 year MBP started having issues - got real sluggish, started doing funky things and then it crashed. I use Backblaze online backup(but hadnt backed up in 4 weeks with lots of photos uploaded - not to mention the chunked up way you would need to download iPhoto components to restore - or pay the $189 fee to have files prepped and shipped - glad the feature is there but.), but my NAS solution at home was not so great and always had issues with Time Machine so no local backup. My situation: 280GB iPhoto Library with ~40K photos and movies sitting on my MBP. Use iPhoto Library Manager to rebuild your library from scratch while retaining all your iPhoto organization and metadata. Take entire libraries and merge them together into one, eliminating duplicates in the process. Need to identify and remove duplicate photos across multiple libraries? iPhoto Library Manager does it quickly and easily. Put everything in its right place by dragging and dropping images from library to library. iPhoto Library Manager lets you search for photos across one library or many. iPhoto Library Manager lets easily create libraries to split up your collection, avoiding iPhoto slowdowns. You can browse the photos in all your libraries directly from iPhoto Library Manager, without having to open each library in iPhoto just to see its photos, and search across all your libraries to help track down a particular photo. IPhoto Library Manager allows you to organize your photos among multiple iPhoto libraries, rather than having to store all of your photos in one giant library.
