[QUOTE="MacQuizzical, post: 1647612, member: 346688"] Thank you for your response. I can tell you know a lot about this program, and truly, I don't really WANT to know the intricacies of what iPhoto does behind the scenes. I've been using this program for many years... not having too many problems but not really confident that I was using it to my full advantage. I'm currently running Version 9.6 on my iMac, iPhone and iPad. I confess I've never tried to get inside the database. I just work within the confines of the program as I see it presented. Here's an example of my problem: I take a picture on my iPhone of my daughter Becca. Now it's in my Camera Roll on the iPhone and a 'copy' has been sent to the Photo Stream folder on my iPhone, my iPad, and my iMac. Now, I can go into that Photo Stream folder on my iMac, for example, and create an album. I take several photos from my Photo Stream, including the photo of Becca, and 'drag' them into the newly created album. Now I have this picture of Becca in my camera roll, my photo stream (on all of my devices), and now in this album. Actually, I also have it in Events. So--- I have the album containing the photo of Becca... but let's say I want to 'clean up' some big collections of pictures that I am not explicitly using anymore. If I take the photo of Becca in my Camera Roll and throw it away... what happens to the 'copy' in the album I have created? How about the copy in Photo Stream? If I have created an album containing the photo... does it stay there? Can I remove it from Photo Stream and Events... and will it survive in my album? THAT is my issue! Many thanks for your help.
