To add a new face in iOS 11, find a photo containing the person you want to add, ands then swipe up. Under the photo you’ll see thumbnails of all the people in the picture, as well as a few. The fastest way to upload the photos from your computer is from a folder that contains only the photos you want to use, so create a folder on your desktop (or anywhere you can find it easily) that you can delete after you upload the photos to Facebook.

Essentially, FindFace for Facebook. While such an app violates Facebook’s privacy policies, to identify people in photos (unless you ). And presumably, Facebook’s face search engine is better than the FBI’s identification tool. Because you’ve been voluntarily stuffing Facebook’s database with a huge variety of photos, all helping its AI improve faster than the FBI could ever dream of. And it’s all legal.

How to Merge Duplicate Entries Now that we’ve created a single entry, let’s look at merging entries. You may have noticed that my lovely face appears in two locations in the suggested people page we just looked it. Apparently as good as facial recognition software has gotten, it still struggles with differentiating between chubby-big-beard-in-the-winter Jason and skinnier-short-summer-beard Jason–no worries though, this is exactly what the “Merge” feature is for. To merge two entries together, first pick one and name it (as we just did) and then do the exact same thing for the second entry in the list. Select the album, and click that “+ Add Name” button then type in the same name, and it will suggest an existing person from the album you created in the previous step. Select the matching entry. When asked to confirm you wish to merge the people entries, select “Merge”.

The Related area in any view that has it, such as the People album or at the bottom of any Memories item, shows additional potential Memories. You can tap or click those, and then scroll or swipe to the bottom to tap Add to Memories to have them appear. This kind of select is a form of training. In the Memories view, you can tap and hold down or right-click to remove a memory or add it to favorites, which trains the system further.

• Click the Close button in the info window when you're done. Once named, the photo will be added to the person's profile in the People album. How to name or rename a People profile If a profile is unnamed or has a name but it's the wrong one, you can manually name or rename it. • Launch the Photos app on your Mac. • Click on the People album in the sidebar under Library. • Double-click on the profile you want to name or rename. • Click the name or Unnamed at the top right corner of the profile window.

• Sign in to your Google Account. • At the top, tap the search bar.

To change up the style and transitions, tap the clapperboard icon at the lower left of your screen. To switch up the music track, tap the music note. And if you want to adjust the order of content in the movie — or add or drop images — choose the film strip. Once you’re done, you can either share your movie directly or upload it to YouTube for public viewing. SHARED ALBUMS If you want to share your shots from a wedding or a party with other people that attended, Google Photos makes this relatively simple. Select the album that you want to share, tap the share icon, and start entering their name or email address. You can also create a new “Shared Album” and choose whether or not people you share it with will be allowed to contribute to the album.

Earlier this month, Financial Times reported that Apple had regarding the possibility of Apple taking a financial stake in the struggling radio company that filed for bankruptcy earlier this year. Despite its financial troubles, iHeartMedia remains the largest radio station owner in the country with over 850 AM and FM stations. Financial Times has followed up with a new report today on the negotiations between Apple and iHeartMedia, and while no deal has been struck, it appears Apple is considering several options that would help it leverage iHeartMedia's expertise in terrestrial radio and promote Apple Music and Beats 1 to millions of potential customers. According to people familiar with the negotiations, Apple has considered buying a stake in the radio group, as well as signing a marketing or promotional partnership. Another option under consideration is for Apple to acquire iHeartRadio’s streaming platform, which would be a relatively cheap way to reach the service’s 120m registered users.One unnamed music executive quoted in the story notes that the millions of radio listeners around the world will 'inevitably migrate' to online options over time, and Apple undoubtedly would love to make Apple Music the destination for those users as it continues to compete with the likes of Spotify. The report also notes that Apple Music's user base has grown to 56 million subscribers, up from. While the increase has pushed Apple past Spotify to become the largest music streaming service in the U.S., Spotify is still growing at a faster pace globally, adding 12 million users over the past six months to reach a total of 87 million subscribers.

Don’t worry if there are multiple entries for one person (we’ll tidy that up in a moment). Once you’ve select a face, click on “+ Add Name” to add a name to the face. Add a name to the face. Notice that it prompts us to select an entry from our contacts list. There are no additional features if you use an actual contact entry, such as the ability to see a person’s photos if you look at their contact in your contact list. As it stands now, it’s just a form of helpful auto-fill that suggests names based on your contacts. (Though Apple may make this useful in the future.) And, as an aside, remember that all the facial recognition and tagging is done on the phone, and adding a friend’s contact information here doesn’t link the photos on your phone to some Apple database.

There are, however, some restrictions. While iMessage functions fine, sending texts to non-iPhones requires configuring some settings, and voicemails will not be able to take advantage of the visual voicemail feature in iOS. Voicemails will instead be available as text messages, and you'll need to call to check them. Google Fi's network switching feature and VPN do not work on iOS. Google Fi compatibility on an iPhone XS Max Google Fi operates as an MNVO, aka mobile virtual network operator, which means its coverage comes from other carriers like T-Mobile, US Cellular, and Sprint. Google devices are able to take advantage of network switching for better coverage, but this does not work on iOS.

If someone you’re sharing with is already a Google Photos user, you’ll see the app’s icon on that person’s profile image. Parallels desktop 12 for mac pro edition. In this case, you can choose to share via Google Photos and they’ll receive an in-app notification. Otherwise, you can just simply share by email.

Photo: Charlie Sorrel/Cult of Mac If you’re using the iOS 11 beta, you may be enjoying the new Faces and Memories features in the Photos app. But, even while the facial recognition has improved, Photos has lost the ability to recognize new people. If you look in the People album, you’ll see that Add People button has gone. How, then, do you add new faces to your library? Fear not — it’s still easy, although a little less obvious.

• Some features require specific hardware and software. For more information, see “Feature Requirements“ at.

Or maybe I just need to have friends that make fewer silly expressions so their faces are more recognizable. That doesn’t sound as fun.

Adding and changing a portrait in (2012) is one of the activities that isn’t very Mac-like. Mac users expect intuitive control of an app.

So I’ve compiled some how-tos and tips here and plan to update this article to keep up with any big changes that Google makes to the app. MOVING TO GOOGLE PHOTOS Few tasks feel as daunting as transferring your entire photo library from one service to another. And few things feel worse than accidentally losing images or videos that you can’t replace. So as great as Google Photos might be, switching to it won’t be a small undertaking for everyone.

• Double-click the picture that you want to insert. Insert clip art • On the Insert tab, in the Illustrations group, click Clip Art. • In the Clip Art task pane, in the Search for text box, type a word or phrase that describes the clip art that you want, or type in all or some of the file name of the clip art. • Click Go, and then in the list of results, click the clip art to insert it into your document.

In others, the results aren’t far off from what I might have put together myself. In yet others, interesting associations I wouldn’t have made are brought together. Fortunately, by the time of release, Memories seems to have noticeably improved. I went back and looked at some of the slightly bizarre movies it made. The ones there now, on newly set up devices, seem much more appropriate, have no blurry or cut-off images, and were good reflections of the people involved across the time periods I have photographs of them. (Yes, I shed some tears watching my children age several years!) Tap the Memories button in Photos in iOS or click the Memories link in the sidebar in macOS, and Photos lists all the self-assembled memories that it “thinks” are most important. These memories include both photos and videos.

It also now tags images that contain any of thousands of object features, like mountains and dogs. Photos automatically assembles sets of memories into pseudo-albums, ostensibly saving you the tedium of organizing and culling. Apple goes one step further, creating movies that arewell, they’re pretty hilarious and may be more accurate about our lives than we want to believe. Once you install either or both iOS 10 and macOS Sierra, you don’t have to do anything. Your Photos libraries automatically examine every image, and associate any of thousands of object-based keywords to an image, as well as recognize and group faces together. In the beta releases, Apple didn’t synchronize facial and object recognition across devices; Apple’s guidance to Macworld in the summer was it had no information to share. The user manual for iOS 10 says explicitly, “People are synced among devices where you’re signed in with the same Apple ID.” (Objects aren’t mentioned.) However, in my testing of the release versions with five devices (three iOS, two macOS) and the same account, no syncing takes place.

He said something sort of like “Hmm”, but apparently the software engineers didn’t get the message. That said, I do like FTM for Mac 2, especially its ability to sync with my tree on Ancestry.com. But its interface could stand some improvements.

For the life of me, HOW DO YOU ADD GRAPHICS OR ART TO POSTS YOU WRITE ON FACEBOOK! I mean I see people add Snoopy pics, birthday clip art, a bouquet of flowers, and now they’re even adding background pics to put your photos in, etc. I know how to change my thumbnail, and my cover picture, and I know how to copy & paste, just not this issue. I have Googled, Facebooked, and Yahooed myself to total aggravation!! HELP ME DAVE, please! Sounds like you’ve definitely done your homework, and then some, but I think you’re going to be surprised at just how easy it is to add images, photos, graphics, figures or illustrations to a Facebook status update at the end of the day.
