Splitting Events
When you import photos, iPhoto automatically creates Events based on the date you took the photo. (Most digital cameras automatically assign photos a date/timestamp.) If you find that photos in one iPhoto Event actually represent two or more real events, you can split a single Event into two or more Events.
To split an Event:
- Open the Event you want to split.
- Select all the photos you want to be part of a new event.
- Click the Split button in the bottom-left corner of the viewing area. iPhoto creates a new untitled Event containing the photos you selected and removes them from the original Event.
To name the new Event:
- Click the datestamp below its thumbnail. In the resulting field, type a name for the new Event and press Return.
