iPhoto - The Difference Between An Event And An Album | No Problem Mac | Call 310-621-5679 - 1 views

  • Events store your original images. If you delete a photo from an event… it’s gone. Albums are created from copies of images pulled from events. Photos can be added or deleted from an album with no impact on the original image.
  • Make a habit of cleaning up events each time you import new images from your camera or iPhone.
  • Albums are a simply another method of enjoying your images. They work exactly the same way as a playlist.

7 features Apple killed off in iTunes 11 | Apple - CNET News - 1 views

  • But some of that march towards simplicity has come at the expense of some old features. Few of the deep-sixed features seem like logical deletions, and others are already bringing ire from longtime users who expected to see them on the other side of the update.
  • Apple completely nixed Cover Flow in iTunes 11 in favor of its new album view, which will expand out an album to show you the songs within when you click on it.
  • In iTunes 10.7 and earlier, Apple offered a built-in tool that would sniff out duplicates and put them on a single page. It wasn't great, but it was something, and free. In iTunes 11, the feature is missing in action.

  • iTunes DJ was a neat feature that would let you put together a never-ending playlist in a pinch.
  • 4. Gapless playback editor As the name suggests, the gapless playback feature plays songs back to back, without any break -- something that's useful for tracks meant to be in immediate succession. One of the best examples: Pink Floyd's "The Wall." Curiously enough, gapless playback in iTunes 11 still works just fine. You just can't tweak any of your existing music to make use of the feature from the options editor.
  • 5. Multiple windows In an effort to simplify iTunes' user interface, Apple also stripped out one of the features power users loved: the option to break out functions into their own windows.
  • 6. The other sidebar Apple merely hid the source list sidebar, but you can still get that one back. What we're talking about is the feature that would give you genius recommendations based on any song you were currently on, often polling the iTunes Store for music you might not even have.
  • 7. Quick volume control, song progress in mini player Apple's mini player now does quite a bit more than it used to, such as providing search and displaying album art. Even so, it's missing a few handy things such as the volume knob and progress indicator that would show you how far along in a song you were
