Got a mac a few weeks ago. I don't understand how these two programs work together.
In Windows I just used the PS organizer. It worked well and I liked it. With the Mac I have been using iPhoto. Mainly because my wife automatically imports all the photos because you can't view the pics as a slide show until they are on the computer. Kind of annoying, but ok. After some monkying around I figured out how to make albums and groups and have everything sorted pretty nicely.
My photo's take up about 21 gb's of space. I wanted to work on something in PS. For some reason iPhoto does not show the file names nor even that a photo exists in Finder. So I imported the iPhoto catalog into the PSE Organizer. So basically I duplicated everything on the hard drive. Which means I have now used 42 gb's of space. Obviously that isn't acceptable.
So anyone have any pointers for me. I'd like to keep using iPhoto. I have Lightroom in the mail to so I will be using that soon as well.
Thanks
