Click Update and all the photos in the chosen collections will be copied to the folder, using the preferences you choose in the iPod Folders Options dialog.

You just create a new iPod Folder and then designate which Libraries, or which albums or folders in each Library, you want synchronized to your iPod.

IPhoto Library ManagerвЂ™s preferences dialog offers a plethora of options for determining how the application behaves, how photos and their metadata are copied, and how photos are imported.ДЇinally, if youвЂ™ve got a photo-capable iPod, iPhoto Library manager will let you consolidate photos from across multiple iPhoto Libraries into a single folder on your hard drive, which you can then-via iTunes-synchronize with your iPod. Unfortunately-or fortunately, depending on your point of view-you canвЂ™t delete photos from within iPhoto Library Manager you need to switch to the desired album in iPhoto and then delete items from there.)

(To accomplish the latter, you would create a new Library, transfer albums or folders to it, and then delete those albums or folders from the original Library. This ability to move albums and folders between Libraries means that you can use iPhoto Library Manager to manually merge multiple Libraries, or just parts of multiple Libraries, into a single Library or to split an existing Library into two smaller Libraries. (If you copy a Smart album from one Library to another, iPhoto Library Manager will create a standard album in the destination Library containing the photos present in the Smart album at the time of the copy.) WhatвЂ™s more, your albums maintain their organization, and your imported photos even retain their metadata-names, dates, ratings, and comments. iPhoto Library Manager will switch iPhoto to the destination Library and then import the chosen album(s) or folder(s). For example, if you want to move an album or a folder of albums from one Library to another, choose the source album on the left-so that its albums and folders are displayed-and then drag the desired album(s) or folder(s) from that Library to the desired Library. IPhoto Library Manager also lets you move photos between Libraries. (To be fair to iPhoto, recent versions let you hold down the Option key at launch to choose a Library or create a new one, but iPhoto Library Manager is even easier to use and offers far more functionalityвЂ¦read on.) And by making it easy to work with those Libraries, it will make you actually want to use multiple Libraries. By letting you split your photos into multiple iPhoto Libraries, youвЂ™ll see better performance. But two significant criticisms of iPhoto are frequently heard: poor performance with large photo Libraries, and a lack of easy-to-use support for multiple Libraries (the latter perhaps a necessity due to the former).Д«rian WebsterвЂ™s iPhoto Library Manager 3.2.3 ( $20) offers solutions to both issues.

(Sorry iTunes, free downloads arenвЂ™t eligible.) By offering an easy-to-use way to view and organize digital photos, itвЂ™s become the shoe box of the digital-photo generation-for Mac users at least. ThereвЂ™s little doubt that iPhoto is the most popular component of AppleвЂ™s iLife package.
