How do I get photos from backup external drive on to my new hard drive?

How do I get photos from backup external drive on to my new hard drive on my MacBook

How did you use this backup drive? Was this a Time Machine backup, or just an external drive to which you copied files?
I assume your photos were in iPhoto.  If you're just talking a bunch of JPEG files you can just drag them wherever you like, otherwise:

  • Is there any way to get my photos FROM my iPod Touch back onto a new hard drive?

    My Mac crashed last Friday. First timeIs there any way to get my photos FROM my iPod Touch back into my new hard drive. The iTunes sync only goes one way from the computer to the iPod.
    It syncs the photos taken with the iPod (really an old iPhone 3G without phone service) but not the folders which I synced from the old hard drive to the iPod over the past year.

    thank you for the tip.
    Yes, my computer was backed up. for reasons way too complicated to go into here, these particular folders were not part of the backup.
    Thanks again for the help.

  • How can I get my site back (done with Iweb) on my new hard drive? I had to change my hard drive after droping my computer.

    Can someone help me. I had to change my hard drive few weeks ago and lost everything. I made a site via iweb and my site is still on line but I don't know how can I get my site back on my iweb with my new hard drive.

    Patrick ~ Welcome to the Support Commuities. Here's where iWeb's key Domain file (containing your site data) is usually located:
    ...But rather than backing up just that file, consider using Time Machine and/or SuperDuper.

    How do I get photos from my pc to Itunes to put on my IPAD?

    Hey Sandersincp,
    These are the steps for adding digital photos to an iPad using iTunes:
    Connect your iPod, iPhone, or iPad to your computer and select your device.
    Click the Photos button.
    Select “Sync photos from” and choose an album or folder from the pop-up menu.If you’re using Adobe Photoshop Album or Adobe Photoshop Elements, you can export photos directly from those applications to your device by choosing Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose whether to move all your folders or albums, or only selected folders or albums.
    To also move the full-resolution versions of these photos to your iPod, select “Include full-resolution photos.”Note:   To move the photos from your iPod to another computer, select this option, and also select “Enable disk use” in the Summary pane. This option isn’t available on iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad. For more information, see Use iPod as an external hard drive.
    Click Apply.If it’s the first time you’re adding photos to your iPod, iPhone, or iPad, it might take a while, but subsequent syncs should be faster.

    Hi Hannah,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The article linked below will walk you through restoring the iPhone from a previous iCloud or iTunes backup.
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    Restore from an iCloud backup
    If you have a new iOS device, or if you need to restore your iOS device to resolve an issue, follow these steps.
    Follow the initial steps in the iOS Setup Assistant (select your language, and so on).
    Select Restore from iCloud Backup when the assistant asks you to set up your iPhone (or other iOS device).
    Select the backup you created earlier.
    You can restore a backup only by using the iOS Setup Assistant.
    If you've already set up your device, you can erase all current content to go through the iOS Setup Assistant again. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do this only if you already have a backup, because this step will remove all current content from your device.
    Use iTunes
    Restore from a backup
    If you have a new iOS device, or if you need to restore your device to resolve an issue, follow these steps:
    Connect your iOS device to the computer that has your backup.
    Make sure this computer has the latest version of iTunes.
    Choose File > Devices > Restore from Back up.
    If you're using iTunes 10.7 or earlier, right-click the device from the list and choose Restore from Backup.

    Hi People!
    Please help...I want to know how can i get photos from ipad to the computer, that were synchronized previously to ipad but from another pc that i dont have access anymore and these pics are now only found in this ipad and no other place.

    Hi Alan,
    Thanks for the help, but i've actually done that before.
    It does not help, because it only shows the photos on the camera roll and do not show the photos synchronized with that pc that i dont have access anymore.
    The photos/albums all appear on the ipad, i can see it without problems but i cant get them out of the ipad to save onto pc for backup.
    And i reaaly need it, as it is the only place that i actually have these photos now...

  • How do i get photos from iphoto library over to photoshop elements for editing?

    how do i get photos from iphoto library over to photoshop elements 10 for editing?
    this is an iMac that I just got so its all new to me...
    thank you

    If you set PSE as external editor, be sure you pick the right file, which is not by any means the logical choice. You want this one:
    You can also export the photos from iphoto, edit them and save them under new names and reimport the edited photos as new files. This is more trouble, but lets you save as many different versions of your image as you like (iphoto only remembers the last edited version + original).

  • HT4910 How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream?

    How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream? It seems it is supposed to do it automatically , but it does not.

    Photos are normally uploaded automatically as long as you are connected to wifi, have the camera app closed and have at least 20% battery life remaining.  (It doesn't require a manual iCloud backup first.)
    If yours are working, if you haven't already done so, try turning off photo stream, then turn it back on.
    Sometimes people have issues getting photo stream to work on their home wifi, even if other devices in the home seem to work fine.  To troubleshoot this as a possible cause, some things to try include:
    Power-cycling your router (unplug for 15 seconds, then plug back in), then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings, then rejoin your wifi network.
    See if there is a firmware update available for your router.
    Change the DNS settings in your router to Google's Public DNS (see https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using)
    As a diagnostic step, go to a public wifi hotspot and take a photo, then wait a minute or so to see if it appears in your My Photo Stream album on your phone.  If it does, this confirms that the problem is with your home wifi.

  • How do I get photos from my PC to my I-Pad?

    How do I get photos from my PC to my I-Pad?

    Another way.
    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import.
     Cheers, Tom

  • 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 get photos from laptop to iPad,  can't find photo tab

    How do I get photos from lap top to iPad?

    The photos tab appears on the right-hand side of iTunes when you've selected the device, in the same way as the music, films tabs etc appear for syncing those items to the iPad. You need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from the iPad.

  • How do i get photos from computer to iPhone?

    how do i get photos from my macbook onto my iphone5.  i transferred iphone photos to iphoto, and now they disappeared from my phone!  something went wrong!

    On your Mac: open System Preferences, select iCloud.  Either create an account, or login if you already have one. Ensure that everything you want to synchronise between your Mac and your iPhone is ticked.  In this case especially 'Photo Stream', but I find it useful to synchronise Calendars, Notes, Contacts and Reminders.  If you use an @me.com email address then synchronise Mail as well - I don't.
    On your iPhone: go into Settings, select iCloud.  Login to your account (if necessary).  Ensure that 'Photo Stream' is turned on. 
    That's it, photo's taken on your iPhone will automatically synchronise with your Mac, and photos in the 'Photo Stream' folder of iPhoto on your Mac will automatically synchronise with your iPhone.
    There are other advantages to setting up iCloud if you have both a Mac and an iPhone, e.g. 'Find my Mac' which despite it's name enables you to find your iPhone as well, which let's face it is much more likely to get lost or stolen.
