[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1501229"] dabler: iPhoto will do that if it cannot determine where you are trying to drag the photos to. This is usually due to unsteady mousing, or you are trying to drag photos into SMART albums not regular ones (you can't drag photos into smart albums, as they aren't really folders). You say you can't organize your photos once they are in iPhoto, but in fact iPhoto organizes them for you by time -- called Events. It can also present them organized by place, or by a face, or just in a general chronological view of all photos. When I try moving photos from an event into an album, a big blue circle appears around the album as I drag pictures over it, so I'm always sure I'm dropping into the correct album. Again, this won't work if the album is a smart album (has a little gear icon in it). [/QUOTE]
