Hi Peta, As long as you are doing everything in the iPhoto Application you are fine. You can rename, batch change the name of a group of photos, edit photos, place them into albums etc. iPhoto will always keep the original that you can revert back to at any time. My comment ""Moving thi

Hi Peta, iPhoto is very non destructive. If you change a name of a photo in iPhoto only it's reference is changed not the actual documents name on the hard drive. If you move it to a new album in iPhoto only the reference position is moved the actual document remains in the originals fold

Hullo Ronni I have been stewing on your reply to my query on October 26, and Eugene's later reply to my query re "reverting to original" situations. I have experimented with this successfully; however, your comment about "Moving things, renaming things" has been bothering me. When I

Hi Peta, iPhoto never deletes the original. It always preserves it, treating it like a film photographer minds his negative. There is no way to remove the Original from iPhoto. This facilitates the Photos - "Revert to Original" command in iPhoto and the non-destructive editing feature. Th

Hullo Eugene I have just read with interest your reply to John. My question for you is at a tangent though. If iPhoto keeps 3 copies of each photo, is it possible to recall/ reinstate the original (which I assume is "hidden" somewhere in the depths of my Mac? I hate to admit it, but

Hi John, the iPhoto library folder on your computer does keep 3 copies of the photo. The original, the modified version (if you have altered contrast/cropped/ rotated etc the picture) and finally a thumbnail for quick viewing the image. When you move your picture to an external storage de
