iPhoto 09 predates Outlook by a couple of years and so knows nothing about its 
existence at all.
 No you can’t set it as a Mail app in iPhoto 09.

However some things will still work: for instance:

1. Use the Media Browser in Outlook (Click on Pictures)
2. Drag the Pics from the iPhoto Window to the Outlook icon on the Dock and 
Outlook will make an email with attachments for them.
3. As Outlook has a comprehensive Automator Dictionary you can create a simple 
workflow and save it as a Service to automate the process.

Good morning all,

If you create an Album for the pictures you want to manually sort the the

Thanks Peter for clarifying. Were you trying to “Sort Manually” in “Events”? 

iPhoto sorts photos into “Events” based entirely on Date and Time the camera 
records the photos as taken.
You can move photos between Events, you can Merge Events, you can Rename them 
and sort them in various ways except one: You cannot manually sort in an Event 
as Events are all automated.

If you want to manually sort in an Event then you've outgrown Events as an 
organising tool. 
Now it's time to look at albums (Where you can manually sort) which are much 
more flexible than Events as an organising tool.

Creating a New Album

There is one place where you can always sort photos: a regular photo album (but 
not a smart album!). 
To create a new album from an event:
1.  Double click on the event in question so that you are viewing 
the photos within that event.
2.  Highlight/select the photos you want to reorder. You probably 
want to reorder the entire album, so you select Select All from the Edit menu 
(or type command-A) to highlight all the photos in the album.
3.  Now, from the File album, select New Album from Selection. A 
new window will open, allowing you to name this. Choose anything you like, and 
make sure the Use selected items in new album check box is selected:

Reordering Photos Within the Album

Now that you’ve created a new album with the photos you want to reorder, you 
can feel free to drag photos in any order you wish.Spend some time thinking 
about what order you want the photos in because after you complete this task, 
you’ll have to start over if you want to change the order of the photos again. 

From the Photos menu, select Batch Change… (or type command-shift-B).
What you are going to do now is change the file names of the photos. In the new 
window, make sure the pop-up menus read “Set Title to Text.”
You must also make sure Append a number to each photo is checked.
You can add a name to the file name if you wish, but you don’t have to. The key 
is to have a number appended to each photo:
Finishing Up

Now that you’ve completed the batch change, you can go back to your event and 
choose to Sort Photos by Title (from the View menu). If you’ve completed the 
steps properly, your photos will now be sorted in the order you set in the 
album (you can delete the album if you’re not going to make any further 
changes).


Cheers,
Ronni

To clarify, the question was asked about how to sort photos in iPhoto. The 
suggestions centred around the process of performing a Manual Sort, adn we 
proceed to demonstrated to this could be done. The issues became perplexing 
when several of us there who had our laptops all experienced quite varies 
results. On my computer, the options "Manual Sort" and "Reset Manual Sort" in 
the View > Sort menu remained greyed out no matter what we did to the selected 
photos, while others had quite different experiences. The challenge was to find 
what the differences were, given that we were all using the same version of 
iPhoto ('11). Unfortunately, this was not resolved at the meeting because of 
time pressures, but Marlene's post was in follow up to that exercise (and I 
still don't have the Manual Sort option available!).

Re: Re-number sequencing in iPhoto

[Ronda Brown]

Hello Marlene,

I was not at the meeting, so I’m not sure if I understand what your were trying 
to achieve.
My understanding is that you want to put the 'Album of Photos' into a 'folder 
on your desktop' and retain the order you have arranged the photos in the 
‘Album’ and then place ‘the folder’ onto a thumb drive & iPad

If you want the photos in a sequence outside of iPhoto where you are looking at 
files rather than photos you must export them using the sequential files name 
option so the file names sort to the order you want.

The prefix is for your info - it is the same on every file - only the sequence 
# changes which gives you the sort order in a file system that only looks at 
file names - the prefix can be anything you want.

So what you have done below: i.e 
1. Create your folder on the desktop
2. In iPhoto select the ‘Album’
3. Edit > Select All
4. File Export > File Name > Sequential > ‘Prefix for Sequential’ - type 
anything you want here
5. Click Export - in the export window that appears, select the folder on the 
desktop
6. Click ‘OK’

The images in the folder on the desktop will be in the order you had arranged 
in 'iPhoto Album'
7. Drag the folder onto a Thumb Drive & it will retain the same order.

The images in the Album in iPhoto won’t be changed in any way.
Is this NOT what you wished to achieve?

Cheers,
Ronni
