How to export photos from iPhoto to memory card SanDisk

Hi;
I am trying to move photos from iPhoto to a flash drive. In the flash drive I have a SanDisk memory card in a Kodak 50-IN-1 Card reader and I put it into the drive. I have tried to open iphoto click on the photo, go to file click on export and it. The photo shows up in the flash drive port, I can click on it and see it but when I take the disk and try to re-upload the disk the photo will not show up on iphoto nor will it show up in the camera.
The second way I tried was to create a folder, copy to the folder and the drag folder to the device. I again ended up with the same results.
Why will it show up in the device when I click on the device but the photo will no show up in iphoto or when I put the disk into the camera?
Tom

Most cameras expect photos to be in specific folder(s) on the card and to have file names in specific formats. My Canon G12, for example, uses a structure like this:
CANON_DC
....DCIM
........100___01
............IMG_0001.CR2
............IMG_0001.JPG
............more photos
........100___02
............IMG_0007.CR2
............IMG_0007.JPG
.............more photos
(My camera is set to create a new folder every month, but there are other options. One of my previous cameras went to a new folder every hundred photos.)
Examine a card formatted by your camera with some pictures taken by your camera to discover what sort of file structure and filenames your camera creates, then mimic that.
On the re-import side, iPhoto and Image Capture know about the common file structures and filenames, so it recognizes them when it sees them. Dropping long, random names in the top level of the card as illustrated in the video is likely only to work when you view the card on another system with a general file structure with an application that makes full use of it (like Finder or Windows Explorer).

    You can't upload to a memory card.
    You can connect the iPad with your computer and then go to (this) Computer see there your iPad as external drive, open it and look for the maps with photos to copy them to your computer.
    Otherwise you can use free Dropbox to transfer and share your photos wireless to your computer and others;

  • How to export photos from ipad to sd card

    For some reason my ipad doesn't recongize readers attached.  Or maybe a better question is how do I know if ipad recognizes reader? How do I export photos from ipd to SD card?

    You can only use the kit to copy photos from a card (or direct from a camera) to the iPad's Photos app, you can't use it to copy content off the iPad.
    To copy photos to the iPad via the kit, then if you are copying the photos onto the card yourself from your computer then you will need to create a DCIM directory off the root of the card, with the photos underneath it, and the photo filenames need to be exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension i.e. in a similar format as if a camera had created/written them

  • 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 to export photos from iphoto'11 to portable drive for download?

    I have 2 macs in different locations and a 500gb portable drive. I am about to leave one location for the second location and want to take my photos from iPhoto with me on my portable drive.
    What is the best way to do this? I do have time capsule on the 1st iMac.
    I use Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 for editing on my iMac. I have a backup catalog Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and the folder 'my pictures' from my PC (on way to recycle - at last) on the portable drive.
    I am not currently using organizer from Adobe Photoshop 9 -but using events from iPhoto.

    Depends on what you want
    If your want your iPhoto library then drag it to the external drive - in the new location depress the option key and launch iPhoto and use the select library command to choose the library you want - the local one or the one on the EHD
    If you want to merge them then use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to merge the library on the EHD with the local library
    If you want just the photos then select them and export them to the external drive and import them into the other library
    Explain exactly what you want if none of these help

  • How to export photos from iPhoto Library to normal folders?

    Hi,
    I have been using iPhoto for a long time now, and I have many many thousands of photos well organised with albums and folders in my iPhoto library. However I find some things difficult and inefficient to do in iPhoto and I'm trying to move into other softwares like Photo Mechanics and Lightroom.
    One of these things I find hard to do is to backup, I don't want to keep something like three libraries and import from camera into one library and do the same to the other two, switching external drives and computers. Nor do I want to copy a 250GB library once every couple of days, since it takes a while with non-SSD drives. Is there a more effective way to do this?
    In the iPhoto "package contents" all my photos are organised by date, which is not really great since I have albums in my library filled with photos from all around my library organised in folders, if that made any sense. Is there a way to export my iPhoto library keeping all my folders and albums intact (also ratings)? Like folders containing photos within folders with the names that were used inside iPhoto? I've already tried using the normal export tool, it doesn't work since it goes by dates or "events".
    I have tried the "iPhoto to Disk" software, but I'm curious if there is a better way? Will it be easier to do this in Aperture?
    Thanks in advance

    export using the option for "subfolder format" - Exporting From iPhoto
    Backing up - simplest use TimeMachine - or software like Carbon Copy Cloner that can update only the new portions of the iPhoto library
    As to "better than iPhoto to disk" - it is a rest program - what is it that you  want to do "better"
    And for Aperture questions you will get better answers in the Aperture forum as that is where Aperture uses hang out
    And with regards to going into the iPhoto library package contents - don't - it is not supported and is very dangerous - a small mistake there can wipe out your library - there never is a reason to be in it unless instructed by an expert - there simply are no user serviceable parts in it

  • How to export photos from iPhoto on a MacBook Pro to an iPhone 5s?

    I'd like to be able to sync all my photos on iPhoto with my new iPhone 5s.  I'm missing a significant amount of photos after switching from 4s to 5s (I lost my 4s so I didn't have a chance to back up right before I lost it, however I did back it up within a few weeks of losing it).
    Thanks for your help.

    How to get photos from iPhoto back onto a SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with built in SD card slot. I have tried "Export" but this does not work.

    It's best to export the photos to a folder and then drag the folder onto the memory card.  Memory cards are usually formatted for PCs, FAT 32, which doesn't permit more than a limited number of files in the root directory. Putting the photos in a folder gets around that limitation.
