Jan 5, 2011 8:27 PM in response to CharlesUKby bnd Plano,This is the most annoying thing about this imac. I have another photo program (PhotoShop Elements) and want to use that and turn off iphoto all together. (Is that possible?) I cant believe Apple would actually think everyone would just love this feature so much that there is no option to turn it off. The faces starts to scan every time I open iphoto and YES I have already sent my feed back to Apple. This feature wrecks a perfectly good computer, and photo organizer, otherwise. I cant express how completely disappointed I am. -

Oct 9, 2012 10:30 PM in response to Terence Devlinby danTapa,what about now? still no 'correction' on this feature?
just avoid forcing your user to do anything!

Aug 5, 2013 6:11 PM in response to Terence Devlinby doesntcare,Well it's August 2013 and we can see how well Apple responds to feedback, Lots of threadfs on being able to turn it off. It's still there which shows Apple hasn't changed a bit over the years, they don't care what their customers want becasue Apple knows best.

Aug 5, 2013 11:39 PM in response to doesntcareby Terence Devlin,Perhaps you misunderstand what this forum is. It's a place for users to talk to other users only. Apple don't rpomise to read anything here. So all those threads aren't relevant. Did you send feedback?

This is an unsupported Hack and should be used at the users own risk - and certainly with a good backup

Apple has a product, that allows you to disable Faces, and Previews, and all kinds of customizations, but a bit more expensive than iPhoto. It is called Aperture. If you want a more elaborate photo management software, buy Apple's professional software.
Then you do not need an unsupported hack to disable Faces.

Sep 25, 2015 2:05 AM in response to CharlesUKby magnard,In the Photos top menu, 'File' then 'Hide Face Names' (in the third section of the drop down just under Metadata)
-
Sep 25, 2015 2:18 AM in response to magnardby Terence Devlin,That's a different application - Photos - not iPhoto. There is no such command in iPhoto. in current versions of iPhoto you can remove the option by collapsing the Faces tab in the Info Pane.

Sep 25, 2015 2:22 AM in response to Terence Devlinby magnard,Ah apologies for the confusion. At least Apple has addressed it in its latest application. I doubt it will do the same for iPhotos.
