How do I add photos from one iphoto library to another library

I own 2 macs and want to take the photos from one library and add them to a different library on a different Mac.  How do I do it?  I've copied the iphoto library from computer 1 to computer 2 but haven't yet done anything with the file.

Best solution is to use the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager to move photos between libraries
You can move one version of the image with selected metadata by exporting from one library and importing it to the other library - Exporting From iPhoto

  • HT4236 How do I add photos from my iPhoto on my IMac to my IPhone 5?

    I was syncing my Iphone 3 and trying Selecting Photos, but ended up with over 1,000 photos on my phone.  Too many for me.  I am trying to delete all photos from the phone and then adding a select few to show my friends when I am traveling and for my own enjoyment.  I am a 75 year old Granny.....so please bear that in mind when you give me instructions!!

    Plug your phone into itunes, select it under Devices in the list to the left. Across the top you will see a list of items, Apps, Tones, Music, and finally Photos. Click of photos, then on "Selected Albums, Events.
    Here you can choose which photos to sync to your phone.
    Click on "Sync" at the bottom when done and only these photos will show on your phone.
    Good luck and happy viewing.
    The fact that you got to the forums is great, don't sell yourself short on being a 75 year old Granny.

  • How can I move pages from one iphoto book to another?

    I'd apprecate it if anyone could tell me if it's possible to move some pages from one book I've created in iphoto to another book.
    I basically want to split my book in two, but I've done way too much detailed work to want to start again!

    You could make a duplicate of your existing book by control-clicking on it and clicking "Duplicate", then delete the unneeded pages from both books.

  • How do I transfer photos from one icloud account to another?

    I recently switched back to iPhone when the iPhone 6 Plus came out.  I had the iPhone 4s before I got an android so it's been a while since having an iCloud account. I could not think of my password when logging into my iCloud account when starting up my new phone so I created a new iCloud account.  I FINALLY figured out my old password and was able to log in my old 4s phone and see my old photos and thought "WOW I need to save these somewhere." I cannot figure out how to get them off on my old iCloud account... I logged into my old iCloud account on my desktop and did not see those photos though.  I have photos on the old iCloud that cannot be replaced, such as photos of family members who have passed away since, PLEASE HELP.
    Is there a way to transfer photos over to my new iCloud account from my old one?
    Thank you

    If the contents that accumulated on the new phone while the spell of Alzheimer went away is not indispensable, perhaps the quickest way would be to reset and wipe the phone then reregister it to the original iCloud account so you would get all your old content/apps/etc. back.

  • How can I send photos from my iPhoto account to another account?

    Hi,
    I recently got me a new MacBook and thus dumped my old one at my parents.
    They also have an iPad 3 and I configured their MacBook on Mountain Lion to work with their iPad.
    I have a bunch of pictures in my iPhoto library that I want to make available to them. Ideally I would send them an entire album and it would magically appear on their iPad.
    In lieu of that it would be nice if that album would just appear in their iPhoto account. Is there an easy way to do it?
    Thanks!

    If you've used iWeb at all you could get yourself a website and create iWeb album or photo pages with the option to download the photos.  These two demo pages are examples of those iWeb pages.  The secons has the download option activated (just click on one of the thumbnails): Using an iWeb Album Page as an Alternative to MobileMe Galleries and Using an iWeb Photo Page as an Alternate to a MobileMe Gallery.
    This may be of help to you: Life After MobileMe.
    You could also restrict access to those webpages thru the hosting service with passwords and usernames if so desired. The webpage could be access by any computer or mobile device.

  • How do I transfer photos from one flash drive to another?

    I downloaded  original photos to several flash drives before I had enhanced them. I realized I needed to do that before I gave them to my family.
    In Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 I fixed the photos and now I want to put them on the same flash drives without distroying the originals. I would appreciate knowing how to transfer the new photos to the flash drives without replacing the originals.

    You should really have left them in My Pictures. If you use Explorer to drag files you corrupt the file paths in Organizer and end up with missing files.
    It would be best to get the originals from your family and put them and the edits back into My Pictures.
    You can then make duplicates for your family using my method above.
      Edit - if dragging directly to the flash drive made duplicates then you should still have all the photos in My Pictures

  • How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library?  It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library.

    How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library?  It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library.  I watched it upload about 400 photos, one by one.  They're somewhere, but they don't appear in the iPhoto library. As iPhoto was deleting them from my camera, it got hung up, then a message came "you should eject before disconnecting a device."  I hadn't touched the camera.  The message came by itself.  I couldn't get iPhoto to respond, so I disconnected the camera and did a Force Quit.  Opening it back up, the pictures were gone.  Can somebody help me? 

    What version of iPhoto are you running?  Assuming it's iPhoto 9 or later Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • How do i add photos from an iPad to a Wiki Server wiki page?

    How do i add photos from an iPad to a Wiki Server wiki page?
    When i click edit in a wiki page the menu at the top is different than the desktop version and there a no attachment buttons, no image buttons or video.
    I tried copy pasting from photos but it just says Loading and the image does not appear in the text.

    The transfer of photos from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to the iPad. The iPad is not designed or intended to be a backup storage device. Photos transferred from your computer are optimized for viewing on your iPad - the resolution of most or all of these photos is reduced on your iPad, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported.
    There are some 3Rd party paid utilities that provide for transferring these photos in the opposite direction, but such utilities are not supported by Apple and the original resolution of the photos will be lost. Here is one such utility that is Mac compatible.

    How do I move photos from one library to another?
    Currently I Export to a new temporary library which I import to the other library but It feels kind of a hackish way to do it.
    Thanks

    That is the way it is set-up to be done (at least for Projects as Libraries).
    The only other option is to export master or version (depending on what you want) and then import to other library.

  • How do I merge photos from one album to another on my iPad

    How do I merge photos from one album to another.  How do I delete, remove albums.

    If they are albums that you've synced from your computer then they are removed by re-connecting to your computer's iTunes, de-selecting them on the Photos tab, and re-syncing - albums and photos that you've synced can't be deleted (and albums can't be merged) directly on the iPad.
    If they are albums that you've created directly on the iPad then you should be able to delete them on the iPad via the Edit button at the top left of the album selection screen. You can also copy more photos into (via the Edit button when within an album), and delete photos from, those albums.
