Hello all 
I designed a book yesterday and saved it. Now I can open it but I couldn't edit it easily. 


The book was created from photo collections and as you know the saved one is located there.
At the moment, and after I open the saved book, whenever I click on any other photo collection it automatically create new book project out of that selected collection! I just click the collection to chose more photos (like I did before) but I couldn't! 
Any advise ?

3) Select individual photos you want to ADD to the Book and drag them to the 'Saved Book Collection'.

4) Re-open the Saved Book Collection. Your 'added' photos will be at the right-end of the Filmstrip.

Thank you, 
I think that does the job for now. Although I wish to be able pick/drag photos from other collections directly to certain places (pages) in the existed book. (Like what I did in the begining before I saved the book).
