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 when I first began working with iPhoto over 18
months ago, I did not always keep my original photo and then edit a
copy of that photo. (I do now). So, what has happened is that
occasionally iPhoto has not given me the results that I have been
after - e.g. iPhoto does not do such a great job with red-eye.
Now quite a few of my photos have badly edited red-eyes and my
subjects appear to be wearing a lot of badly applied eye-shadow.
Is there a way of reinstating the originals into iPhoto so that I can
re-work with them?
Thanks to anyone who can assist with this,
Peta

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 device such as the
memory stick you mentioned you usually do this by exporting the
image from iPhoto or simply drag it from iPhoto. This will place
only one file (image) on your memory stick.
The only way you would have all 3 files on your memory stick that I
can think of is if you dragged the whole iPhoto library to you
memory stick.
Regards,
Eugene

Hi Wamuggers
I †ook a memory stick into Cameraland to print from iPhoto shots.
They told me that iPhoto creates 3 copies of each image in small,
medium and full resolution. Therefore they were unable to identify
on their server which copy to print. The person who explained it to
me has some knowledge of Mac stuff.
Can anyone confirm that this is what happens?
Cheers
John
