How can i import photos from iphoto 9.2.3 to 9.6

I am migrating from a 2009 ibook to a Macbook pro 13.3 retina. How can  can I import photos from iPhoto 9.2.3 library to  the 9.6 iPhoto.
I am running 10.6.8 snow leopard on the ibook which has 4Gb of memory.
I tried but it just loaded icons to the 9.6 library.
I am reluctant to go to Yosimite on the ibook and it seems this would not solve it anyway.

You don't import one library to another.  Just copy the library from the iBook to the Pictures folder on shout new MacBook Pro. If you have another library already on the MBP rename it so you don't overwrite it with the old library.
Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the newly copied library and let iPhoto convert it to the new version.
Do you have photos in the library on the new MacBook Pro that you want to combine with the older library?

    How can I import photos from iPhoto-library to edit in Photoshop CC? - and save it back to the iPhoto-library?

    How to access iPhoto images for use in Photoshop
    1. In the Finder, navigate to Users > [user name} > Pictures > iPhoto Library. 
    2. Control-click the iPhoto Library file and choose Show Package Contents.
    3. A Finder window opens that shows the contents. The Masters folder (or called Originals folder) contains all of the photographs that are in iPhoto. 
    Photoshop cannot access this folder, but if you make a duplicate of the folder, the dupe will be accessible -- so:
    4. Control-click the folder named Masters (or Originals) and choose Duplicate. 
    5, Drag the duplicate folder which is named "Masters copy" or “Originals copy” from the iPhoto Library Finder window to the Desktop.
    6. Open images in Photoshop from file on desktop.
    7  Rename the folder and move it elsewhere (probably to the Pictures folder), if desired.  

  • How can I import photos from iPhoto into a power point presentation

    I would like to take a group of photos from iphoto and import them into a power point(for mac) presentation- the PP for windows allows you to take a large number of pics and make a "photo album presentation" but can figure how to do it in Mac.

    If you don't know how to use iPhoto, launch iPhoto on your Mac, and select iPhoto Help from the help drop down menu.
    Read the article that KP has posted above and take a look at this below.
    In the photo below, I have a checkmark next to sync photos. The folder from which the photos are syncing is iPhoto on my Mac. You can also see that I have clicked - selected albums, events, and faces automatically. These events, albums, etc will sync every time the way I have this set up.
    I can also add new events or albums when I sync if I choose to do so. You have to select the other albums, events, etc. that you want to sync by putting a checkmark in the box next to the event and then click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes and they will transfer to your iPad.

  • How can I import photos from iPhoto '09 to Elements Organizer 10 while keeping the tags attached?

    I have spent a ridiculously long time tagging photos in my iPhotos but I would now like to transfer all my photos to Elements Organizer and preserve all the work I had done.
    From Adobe's help website (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/elementsorganizer/using/WS73c05ee9864270ea-417df45c129593bfa05 -8000.html) it says I can import the tags along with the photos but does not explain how:
    "Elements Organizer 10 supports importing photos, along with their associated captions, tags, and ratings, from iPhoto. You also have the option to import information such as events and albums to maintain the organization of your library"
    When I follow the steps outlined on the website my photos are imported but there are no tags attached to them. I am particularly interested in keeping my facial tags but I suppose it would be useful to know how to keep other keyword tags and ratings as well.
    There was a previous question put out on the forums similar to this but it was unresolved and the person decided to just leave everything in iPhoto. I really would prefer to transfer all my photos to Elements Organizer. I don't like the way iPhoto organizes photos but I had to deal with it for several years before I bought Elements Photoshop with built-in Organizer.
    Please Please help!
    Many thanks

  • How can I import photos from Iphoto into my Ipad

    I tried to import photos I have on Iphoto into my new Ipad, but there is no import feature on Ipad to do so unless you put them in some sort of a folder, which I do not know how to do.
    Can anyone help?

  • How can I import images from iphoto with the albums and folders?

    How can I import images from iphoto without losing the albums and folders I already created?

    In Organizer, you can choose File>get Photos and Videos>From iPhoto.
    Importing from iPhoto'09: If in iPhoto, you organize your media using photo references, that is, the media actually does not reside inside iPhoto library package, and are referenced through original locations, Organizer does not create new copies of those media and just refer to the original location. but if your iPhoto media reside inside iPhoto library, Organizer creates a copy all media in your pictures folder, also imports albums and tags and other metadata.
    Importing from iPhoto'011: In this case, Organizer always creates a copy of your photos in your pictures folder which resides inside iPohto package. It does not import the albums and other metadata like star rating, caption etc.
    Hope this information helps!

    How can I import photos from my iPhone?
    I was able to use iPhoto to import from my iPhone on my old MacPro, but iPhoto does not seem to work on my new iMac.

    How are you trying? There are two ways: by hooking it up with a USB cord, or by photo streaming.

    It is better to export (file menu ==> export) since when you export you control exactly what you get - see the user tip on exporting for details

  • How can i import photos from ipad to itunes, how can i import photos from ipad to itunes

    How can I import photos from my iPad to iTunes on my Windows Vista PC?

    I'm puzzled!  I had received a set of jpg files through an e-mail on my ipad.  For reasons unknown to me, they got saved to my (only) album, that had an irrelevant name.  When I tried to change the name of the album, I received a message that I could only change the name of the album after importing them to the computer where (as I recall) iTunes resided.  After much huffing and puffing, I managed to import the photos, to the Windows computer, but they wound up in a Windows Photo Gallery directory, where I put them into an appropriately named album.  Now, how do I get them back to the iPad.  (I also learned, I think, that iTunes will have nothing to do with the photos.

  • HT201302 how can i import photos from iphone to pc

    how can i import photos from iphone to pc?

    For photos taken with the iPhone or saved from emails/websites then on a PC you should be able to use the Windows Camera Wizard or just copy them via Windows Explorer (there is more info on this page).
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPhone, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • How can I import photos from camera to computer?

    The "Get Photos" selection has disappeared from my Elements 9 screen. How can I import photos from my camera to my computer?

    Yes, the entire top bar disappeared. I no longer see the place to click to
    initiate the import, and I don't see the place to select the camera from
    which to import or the place where I used to select a file or create a new
    file in which to save the pictures when they are imported. I clicked
    Organize when I entered the program, but everything looks slightly
    different. What can I do. I certainly don't want to jeopardize over 3,000
    photos installed.
    Thanks.
