#Iphoto library manager 4 serial free#
I’ve worked with quite a few clients who have tried a bit of de-duplication and pruning of their iPhoto libraries to free up disk space, and wound up with a bigger mess than when they started. Modifying these files outside of iPhoto can cause data loss or library corruption. There is a lot of redundant data and copies of things from eons past. There are folders named Contents, Data, Modified and Originals, caches, thumbs, data segments, et. The organization of these files is confusing at best. The iPhoto Library on the disk is a collection of nested folders and files, containing your original photos, edited versions, thumbnails, etc. Any thumbnails needed by iPhoto (for low-res views in grid mode) will get recreated by the program if they are missing.ĭon’t Edit or Prune the iPhoto Library Directly Most of these appear when you import one iPhoto library into another rather than doing a clean merge. You can even scavenge photos from the library that iPhoto may have lost track of.Any events or rolls in your library that are labelled as Thumbnails can also be safely deleted.
With iPhoto Library Manager, you can rebuild a new library based on your current library, starting with a fresh database free of corruption. Sometimes, an iPhoto library will become corrupted, with missing photos, mysterious iPhoto hangs, or outright crashes. You will be shown a preview of what your merged library will look like before any modifications are done, to ensure your merged library looks how you want. Got a whole bunch of libraries you want to consolidate into one? iPhoto Library Manager lets you merge libraries while weeding out duplicate photos in the process. iPhoto Library Manager lets you search for duplicates in one or more libraries, view them side by side, and take actions on them, such as moving duplicates to the trash, tagging them with keywords, and more. It can be easy to have multiple copies of the same photo creep into your iPhoto libraries. iPhoto Library Manager will take care of retaining all the photos’ metadata, such as keywords, ratings, faces, and so forth. If you have an existing library you want to split up into smaller libraries, you can copy photos by drag and drop from one library to another. You can also search for photos in a single library, or across all your libraries at once. Use iPhoto Library Manager’s photos browser to quickly view your photos without having to open iPhoto itself. The possibilities are endless! Browse and search

This lets you speed up iPhoto by having smaller libraries, archive old photos that you don’t use much, or organize photos in different categories or projects. IPhoto Library Manager lets you create multiple iPhoto libraries, instead of having to keep all your photos in a single iPhoto library. This duplicate analysis is also used when merging libraries and copying photos, to help prevent importing multiple copies of a photo into a library in the first place. Since it can be easy to lose track of what photos are stored in which library, iPhoto Library Manager can analyze your libraries for duplicate photos, showing them to you side by side and letting you get rid of extra copies of photos that you no longer need. You can split up a large library into multiple smaller libraries, merge entire libraries together into a big one, or rebuild a corrupt library that is causing iPhoto to hang or crash. Event and albums are also reconstructed when copied, and both the edited and original copies of each photo are copied as well. Titles, dates, descriptions, keywords, ratings, faces, and place information are all transferred along with the photos, ensuring that you keep all that information you spent hours entering into iPhoto. IPLM also gives you the ability to copy your photos from one library to another, while keeping track of photo metadata that is normally lost when exporting from one library and importing into another.
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. If you need to work with Photos libraries, or migrate your iPhoto libraries to Photos, use PowerPhotos instead. IPhoto Library Manager is only provided for older Macs that are still running iPhoto instead of Apple’s newer Photos app.
