The search result will show me a selection there and I can then click See All to see all of them. You can see now, just a few seconds later, I searched for Paris and it says 37 and now I can see all of these. But once it's all synced up then you should be able to search for that keyword. It's got to go and send them up to iCloud and everything. You can see here if I Search here for Paris it said Indexing there so it hasn't applied them yet. Now it might take some seconds or even minutes to apply all that. Once I do you can see it appears in there and is applied to all of those photos. Or I can do the Info box here and simply type the new keyword. So I can do that by either using Edit Keywords and I can add a new keyword and Apply it. I'm going to go and select some more photos and add those to a new keyword here. So if I have it set to All Items I can click there and I can easily select them. You'll see it say Showing Only and that keyword. So as long as this window is open I could select a photo and hit that key and add or remove that tag from a photo.īut another reason to use the quick group because if you go to View, Show you'll see those keywords as quick group just show up in this list so then you can easily select them like that. The other is you have a keyboard shortcut. One is it always appears at the top so as the list grows your favorites will be here at the top so it's easy to assign them. You can go to the Keyword Manager here and notice there is Favorite Keywords here and I can drag and drop any keyword I want to the top there. Now there's one more way you can do this. So you need to do your organizing on your Mac. Unfortunately you can't assign a keyword on the iPhone or iPad. If you're using iCloud Photo Library and then you have your photos synced that way to your iPhone and iPad you can now search for that keyword and get those same photos. The great thing about this is it works on the iPhone and iPad. When I use that search I'll see those 8 photos. But you'll see it just show up as the plain word for your keyword there with the little magnifying glass next to it. You might see it show up as a description of something in the photo. Now you might see it show up as a location if you had GPS information for the photos. So I'm going to go up here to Search and I'll search there and you can see it shows up as a result there. The way I add to these types of Smart Albums is I basically apply the tag to that photo.īut I don't like using Smart Albums because they don't show up on the iPhone or iPad. Or I can go into my Photos List here and I can select a photo this one and then add it by adding the tag and now it appears automatically in the Smart Album. The difference being that I can take a photo and remove the tag from it, do Command K to bring this up, remove that tag and you can see it disappears from the album. I can use that just like a regular album.
I'll call it Denmark and then I have a Smart Album now under My Albums and all those photos are in there. Go to File, New Smart Album and I set it to Keyword is and then I select from the list, Denmark. One way to do it is to use a Smart Album. Now let me close this window and show you how you can then view these photos. So now I have the keyword Denmark applied to 8 different photos. I can do that with several photos and now I've applied it to all of those. If I select another photo that doesn't have that keyword applied you can see that it's white. It's blue because the three photos selected have that one applied to it already. Bring that up and you can see it's got that keyword already there. Now I can also use the Keyword Manager which is Command K. You can see it even autocompletes so it's easy to assign. I can select, say, these three here and you see it says 3 photos and I can assign a keyword to those as well. I can do the same thing with other photos. Then I have that keyword assigned to this photo. I'll use Command i and then it says Assign Keyword and then I can type a keyword in here. One is I can click the information button here. I can assign a keyword to it one of two ways. So I'm going to start off here selecting a photo. You can use Keywords and also Descriptions and Titles to organize your photos without Albums at all.
