[QUOTE="Sawday, post: 1174336, member: 22882"] Also until you have made a backup of your iPhoto photos you do not have a backup - your camera is your backup temporarily! My three digital cameras (2 Nikons and a Sony) came with thier own programs for downloading and managing photos so you don't [I]have[/I] to use iPhoto. Personally, I don't use those either because I prefer to copy them all first from the camera to a folder on my mac, from where I can (a) back them up (b) delete any obvious duds (c) sort them into sub folders with appropriate names using Finder (d) import them to iPhoto which then automatically creates Events based on my folder names. They are also there in folders as an extra backup and readily available for me to use in other programs or to email if I don't want to go into iPhoto first. [/QUOTE]
