iPhoto Library Manager 3.5 has been released



Photo Library Manager allows you to keep multiple iPhoto libraries in different places on your computer (or even on an external drive or networked volume ) and switch back and forth between them. It also provides at-a-glance information on each of your libraries and allows you to copy photos directly from one library to another, or even merge entire libraries together into one!

Features:
-Create new libraries, and keep track of any number of libraries on your machine
-Switch between libraries, either through the main window or the dock menu
-See what albums are in each of your libraries
-Get information your libraries, such as their version, modification date, and size
-View and change the permissions of your libraries, handy for sharing libraries between users
-Extract the photos from a library, even if the library is corrupted
-Rebuild corrupted libraries based on the information in their AlbumData.xml file
-Create shortcut files, letting you open your libraries directly from the Finder (registered users only)
-Copy photos from one library to another, preserving metadata such as names, dates, ratings, comments (limit 20 photos for unregistered users, requires iPhoto 4.0.3 or greater)
-Merge two or more libraries together, preserving all photo metadata and roll organization (registered users only, requires iPhoto 4.0.3 or greater)
-Import photos directly into a library or album, along with various metadata (registered users only, requires iPhoto 4.0.3 or greater)
-Collect photos from multiple libraries into a single folder for syncing with your iPod (limit 100 photos for unregistered users)

New in this version:
Tagged faces are now transferred along with photos that are copied/merged between libraries in iPhoto '09
Places data is now copied along with photos when performing a copy or a merge in iPhoto '09
iPhoto Library Manager now creates its own log files and logs progress and error information as it copies photos (accessible from the Window menu)
When using the Import Photos menu command, if the user selects an iPhoto library to import, we now perform a merge instead of treating the library like a plain folder
Fixed a crash that could occur when copying photos on a PPC machine
Fixed a bug where copying photos that were imported as aliases could result in an unneeded modified copy of the photo being created in the destination library
A printable version of the help is now available at http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/Help/print/index.html
Removed the preference setting for double clicking a library - double click now always opens the library in iPhoto, and a single click edits the library's name
When the user clicks the Cancel button, we now present a dialog to verify that they do in fact want to cancel the operation
Removed the preference for relaunching iPhoto during a merge. This pref was for working around a bug in iPhoto 6, so we now just relaunch automatically when merging with iPhoto 6.
Photos that were published to a MobileMe gallery are now always included in the main library during a merge, and not just in the gallery itself
Fixed a problem where movies and original versions of photos would not be copied for some users
Added a selection property to the Applescript dictionary so scripters can access the currently selected library
