We also touch on an important iPhoto management tip.

If you hold the Option key when you launch iPhoto it will allow you to create a new library or choose a previous one. Great if you have many projects and do not want them to be mixed up together.

The steps to importing a CD of images are:

  1. Launch iPhoto and/or choose the correct library.
  2. Create a new Album by clicking the plus sign on the bottom left sidebar.
  3. Drag and drop the CD from your desktop into the new album on the left.
  4. Watch the slide show as the images import.
