AppleScript based solutions become excruciatingly slow when assigning and removing keywords from a large amount of photos. Keyword Manager taps directly into iPhoto's own keywording system, for optimal performance. - Intelligent solutions for fast keywording
Smart auto-completion helps you increase the rate at which you keyword your photos. Non-obtrusive auto-correction suggestions helps you avoid creating similar duplicate keywords. - Assign keywords while in full-screen mode
With Keyword Manager you can still assign keywords to your photos, even when viewing them in full-screen mode.

"Some of you may remember that we posted a beta version of Keyword Manager 1.6 earlier this year, which was compatible with iPhoto 9.1.1. However, when version 9.1.2 was released, the beta version no longer functioned. This is because a number of the functions that Keyword Manager uses to do its work were removed from iPhoto in that update.
"Each version of iPhoto that is released requires us to rewrite the entire interface between Keyword Manager and iPhoto, due to the changes that Apple makes to the internal structure of the program. We'd like to stress that this is not unexpected nor in any way Apple's fault. It is just the nature of writing a plug-in for a program without a supported plug-in architecture.
"The economics of keeping Keyword Manager up to date has caught up with us and making the plug-in work reliably in the current version of iPhoto, and then the next one after that, would require a substantial investment in time and resources from our side, and even then it is not certain that we would get Keyword Manager working as well as we'd like."
Sorry to hear that - but thanks nevertheless to the developers for all the good work they did and the time they invested.

"Unfortunately, in the latest iPhoto update, Apple removed key components in the iPhoto code which allowed us to hook in and do our magic. This means we need to re-write big parts of our iPhoto connector. Sadly, this is also possibly the biggest change in iPhoto (for our purposes) since we released KM the first time - which indirectly means we need even more time to complete this update."

Now if only Apple could fix all the functions they frustratingly deleted or broke in iPhoto '11...

Look in /Library/InputManagers/ and ~/Library/InputManagers and delete SIMBL.
Re-download the latest SIMBL from http://www.culater.net/software/SIMBL/SIMBL.php and let it install.
Re-install Keyword Manager.
If you have anything in ~/Library/InputManagers, move them to /Library/InputManagers.
Leopard will only run InputManager plugins from the all-users Library.

I'm somewhat ambivalent about relocating all my InputManagers to /Library though - I'm inclined to not trust injectable code further than I can throw it.

Q: How do I uninstall Keyword Manager?
A: The easiest way to uninstall Keyword Manager is to use the installer program that you used to install the plug-in. If you don't have the installer on your computer, you can download it again from this website. You can also uninstall Keyword Manager manually by deleting the file KeywordManagerPlugin.bundle in the folder ~/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/.
Q: Will Keyword Manager work with iPhoto 9 (iLife '11)?
A: We are currently looking into that. We'll let you know.

iPhoto '11 does not load Keyword Manager as "untested." Removing the Keyword Manager folder from Applications Support, however, does not un-install the plug-in completely, so iPhoto issues the warning every time it's launched. Need a compatible version of KM or to know where all the pieces of it are so I can manually uninstall it.
I have iPhoto '09. When I'm in the 'Photos' section, I have it set up so that the Event Title appears; with all the photos showing, they are still split up by events.
When we click on the keyword to for it to show us all the photos with that keyword, is there a way for the results to be grouped by event, and for it to show our event title? Just like it would if I were to search the keyword?
Thanks.

Any idea when it'll be fixed? It has become second nature to me by now, I can't work without it!
