How do I export photos or video to external hard drive

How do I export photos or video from my ipad3 to external hard drive?

You can copy photos and videos from the camera roll in the iPad's Photos app to an external drive via your computer - on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard, on a Mac you can use Image Capture, iPhoto or Aperture

  • How do I export photos/music to an external hard drive?

    I want to free up space in my SSD.I know there are many answers already for this question. However, being techno-impaired, could I have a step-by-step answer to include explanation of acronyms, file partitions, disk image, and the third toe of The Beast in the Book of Revelation. Thank you!!

    Our iTunes guru Terence Devlin advises the following:
    1. Quit iTunes
    2. Drag the iTunes folder from your internal hd - located in ~/Music folder - to your external hd (which has to be formatted as HFS Extended (Journaled)). DO NOT delete the original one from your internal hd... yet!
    3. When the transfer is complete, press and hold the Option(alt) key and fire up iTunes.
    4. A "Choose iTunes Library" window will come up. Click on the "Choose Library" button.
    5. Navigate to where the iTunes folder is located in the external hd.
    6. Within the iTunes folder, select the iTunes Library file and click Choose...
    That's it. iTunes will now display all your playlists, songs, movies, podcasts etc. At this point, should you wish, you can delete the iTunes folder from the internal hd to free up space.

    You can also move your iPhoto Library to an external disk or new Mac:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

    How do I export itunes library onto an external hard drive so i can put the music on my new mac book?

    do not confuse moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in
    iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449
    Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

  • How to move i photo events to an external hard drive

    My Mac is nearly full so i need to move some old i photo events to an external hard drive, how do i do this?

    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    Now you have two full versions of the Library.
    3. On the Internal library, trash the Events you don't want there
    Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
    Some Notes:
    As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
    You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using iPhoto Library Manager

  • How to export photos from iPhoto to external hard drive keeping Events structure (files and titles)

    Hello!
    I’ve been looking for a Automator application that does this for quite a while now.
    Basically I want to have an Automator application that saves a copy of my iPhoto pictures in a folder, inside Finder. Like a backup. Later on, I can save those “folders and files” on my external hard drive.
    What I want it to do is this:
    1) Export photos from a selected Album or Event on iPhoto. Using as title: “Event name” – “number” (I mean the number of the file: 1, 2, 3 …)
    2) Save them in a folder in Finder that I want.
    3) Organize the photos in different folders, the same way they are in iPhoto.
    The idea I had, was that it would do this automatically every time I launch iPhoto, as if it was synchronizing the photos into that folder.
    And then, every time I connect my hard drive, it copies these “real” folders into my hard drive.
    Is that possible? If yes, could you help me creating it, or tell me how I can do so myself, or where to download something like it?
    Thank you a lot! Kind regards,
    xanacarfran2008

    Is this waht you want to do?
    It's built into the File Export function of iPhoto 9 (11).  Select what every photos you want and use that option to put each photo in a folder with the Event title it came from as in this test of six randomly picked photos:

  • How do I backup photos in iPhoto to external hard drive?

    How do I backup iPhoto photos to an external hard drive (not a Time Machine drive)?

    The iPhoto Library?
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • How do I transfer photos from mac to external hard drive please

    How do I transfer photos to a external hard drive please?

    This answer may need to be expanded a bit. If your photos are in iPhoto and you are moving iPhoto's library to an external drive, once you've dragged the library to the external drive you'll need to let iPhoto know the library has moved. Hold the option key and double-click iPhoto (or click on the iPhoto icon on the Dock). You'll get a fileselector menu to select the library - point it to the external drive. Once you've established that the copied library has copied correctly you may drag the library on your computer to the trash and empty the trash.
    Warning: You do have a backup of your entire computer, right? Just in case something goes awry with the process having a backup is always a good idea.

  • How can I move photos from iphoto to external hard drive?

    My internal is full and I'm getting those messages to clean up the drive.  I've determined that my photos need to leave!  Can I move photos from my Air to the hard drive external and still view them?
    Thanks

    Make sure the external drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and is connected with a wired connection, quit iPhoto, drag the iPhoto library to the EHD intact as a single entity and launch iPhoto while depressing to option key. Use the resulting select library window to select the new location. Be sure the EHD is available prior to launching iPhoto

  • Unable to free up hard disc capacity by transferring photos and videos to external hard drive.

    Have copied files to external hard drive and sent them to trash/empty on hard drive, but can't free up space on hard drive.

    Reboot and see if the free space is reported correctly.  If not reindex your hard drive by adding it to Spotlight's Exlcude list in its preferences and then remove from the Exclude list to begin the indexing.

  • How can I archive photos in iPhoto to a hard drive and retain the Album folders and the Events?

    How can I archive photos in iPhoto to a hard drive and retain the Album folders and the Events?  I tried to Export the Albums but just transferred the files individually.

    If you want to maintain the iPhoto organisation then back up the iPhoto Library.
    If you want to export to the Finder, well you need to create a folder for the contents of an Album and expot to that.
    If you have an older version of iPhoto: Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events. This feature is built in to iPhoto 11.

  • How do i import my library from an external hard drive. Exported it as had to wipe pc and reinstal windows but when i try to import nothing happens

    How do i import my library from an external hard drive. Had to export it as had to reinstal windows due to a conflict between windows and i-tunes. Wen i try to import nothing happens despite selecting the file. Can you import from an i-phone to i-tunes?

    What do you mean bye exported the library? 
    There is nothing to export or import.
    The correct process to backup the iTunes library would be to copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the computer to the external drive.

    The larger the library and the more playlists you have the longer it takes to process each change in the database.
