Where has FACES gone in photo?

You mean iPhoto on your mac?

Faces are still there.

You have/had iPhoto on your iPad?

What do you use for photo app in iPad?

Add: Faces as in iPhoto on Mac are saved in the iPhoto application, not in the photo itself.

This is the iPhoto for Mac forum. Photos on your iPad and the iPhoto for iOS are entirely different applications. You need to be asking this on an iPad forum.

i did have iphoto on my iPad

but after being told to migrate to photo the iPhoto does not work

and that means i have lost FACES

wanted it back

That is not possible. Photos on the iPad does not support Faces. Photos is still very limited. You cannot add any titles or tags other than label a photo as "Favorite". See this link: Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8 - Apple Support

You can sync your Faces albums from iPhoto on the Mac, if you disable iCloud Photo Library (Beta). Otherwise wait, if the Photos.app for he Mac will bring Faces back to iOS8.

It will help to send feedback to Apple with feature requests for the interaction of Photos on Mac and iOS8. Use this form: Apple - iPhoto - Feedback

You did NOT have iPhoto on your iPad; no such thing.

Maybe you are mistaken: when you connect the iPad to the Mac, iPhoto starts up and shows you the photos.

There is no iPhoto for iPad: do you see it on the iPad when it is not coonected to the cloud and not to your mac?

Or do you see it on your Mac.

Lex, there has been iPhoto iOS for iPad, a magnicifent app - the best photo editor for the iPad we ever had (http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/2.0/), but Apple did not provide an upgrade for iOS 8. So, sadly, anybody who upgraded the iPad from iOS 7 to iOS 8 is left in the lurch with just the Photos.app, that is not yet an adequate substitute. Photos supports neither brushed adjustments, nor can the photos be tagged with keywords or titles. There are no longer smart albums based on tags, the Journals can no longer be edited, photo books can no longer be ordered, we can no longer view the metadata of the photos.

redgingeranne,

there did not much being migrated from iPhoto iOS to Photos. This document explains what does migrate:

Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8

iPhoto did not create Faces albums. The faces you had seen in iPhoto iOS have been synced from your Mac. To get them back, sync again with iTunes.

Thank for your explanation Léonie,

So effectively the iPad users should use Iphoto on the Mac or something like that in the cloud.

I never used photo apps on the iPad, but alwys handle everything on the mac (iPhoto but lately mainly Lightroom).

have a wonderful 2015,

Lex

have a wonderful 2015,
