HT1338 How do I delete videos from iPhoto?  Dragging photo to trash or pushing delete does not work.

I've transferred all my photos and videos from Iphoto to an external drive and would now like to delete them from my Macbook pro.  I've highlighted the videos and photos and press delete and nothing happens.  Drag it to the trash bin and the trash bin will not accept the phot/video.  Also, pressing the carrot at the bottom of the photo brings up a menu that includes trash, but the trash icon is not highlighted and is not available.  How do I delete these from my mac hard drive in order to free up space?  Btw, brand new macbook with updated software running 10.8.3.

I found the answer to my own question.  For anyone else having these issues:  push control and option keys anf then delete all 3 together and photos and videos will be delted.

    If iphoto is like iphone with Variable Frame Rate, you won't be able to edit in Premiere Pro (or Elements) so you may need to buy Quicktime Pro from Apple

    I need to print from Iphoto , but it ask for a theme , but does not supply a window or a way to apply the theme.

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • After "upgrading" from trial to FCPX 10.0.3 multi cam does not work

    After "upgrading" from trial to FCPX 10.0.3, multi cam does not work anymore. Everything was fine in the trial version, but now the multicam clip I made in trail is shown, but not with the 4 windows, only the first angle can be seen. And I can not find (import) the cuts I made in the trail. The settings are the same in both versions. Am I missing something? Is it possible that I have to start from scratch and all work is lost?
    When I double click the multi cam clip I see all four angles in the timeline, one underneath the other... 
    Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    There is an excellent podcast tutorial series called "Creative COW Final Cut Help Tutorials Podcast (SD)"
    in the iTunes Store.
    The latest three are video podcasts and go into great depth concerning the new Multicam in 10.0.3
    Can't recommend them enough.

  • Deleted videos from iphoto but they are still showing up in the finder?

    I deleted all of my videos from iPhoto and moved them to an external hard drive because I wanted to free up some space on my MacBook Air.  The files are no longer visible in the iPhoto application, but for some reason, when I look at the storage space on my computer, it is still showing that I have 8GB of movies on my computer.  If I search in the Finder, it is showing that a lot of these videos that I deleted from iPhoto are still in a "Masters" folder in iPhoto.  I am confused, though, because if I open iPhoto, the videos are not in there.  I want these video files to be deleted for good - can I just go in to the "Masters" folder in the Finder and delete them there?  I've read not to delete anything from iPhoto in the Finder, though. So, getting very frustrated because I'm not sure why these files aren't fully deleted off my computer. Any suggestions?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Recover deleted video from iphoto

    hi
    i accidentally deleted my recorded videos from iphoto on macbook pro , then i changed the os version from snow leopard to mountain lion , can anyone help me with the procedure of recovering the deleted videos.. they are emotional and personal moments...i captured and i regret not having backed them...and i feel sad to lose them... please help me ..

    With all that you've done, there's a very good chance that the files have been overwritten by new files.
    However, if you wish to attempt to 'rescue' them, I can recommend (because I've used it on drives that are NOT DAMAGED) Data Rescue 3. $100 to ATTEMPT to recover the files, but if they have so much value to you, it may be worth a try.

  • How do I save videos from a shared photo stream to my photo stream

    my friend

    Hi Gtorres7,
    If you are looking for more information on saving videos from Shared Photo Streams, you may find the following article helpful:
    Can photos and videos be saved or downloaded from a shared photo stream?
    Yes. After photos are shared, anyone who can view the shared stream can download and keep them permanently. Videos can only be downloaded to a Mac or PC. On an iOS device, videos are streamed from iCloud and can't be downloaded.
    On a compatible iOS device, you can save photos to the Camera Roll.
    In iPhoto or Aperture for Mac, you can add or copy shared photos or videos to your Library.
    On a Windows PC, you can copy photos and videos from a shared photo stream to any folder.
    On the web, you can download photos and videos directly to your computer from the detail view of each photo or video.

  • How do I move videos from iphoto to imovie

    I've got a new macbook pro 17", Pegasus 12TB, and all manner of photos and videos. Ive recently upgraded from a G5. Hence, I took a variety of USB drives and found all sorts of photos and videos, FCE stuff, and basically did my best to consolidate them into either Aperture 3.x (kept up to date) and iMovie (latest updates). I keep all my software updated as soon as any update is released.
    I am finally learning a bit about how to use a laptop with tons of information (pic/vids mostly). It wasn't as easy as I thought. Needless to say, the laptop is the cruncher of information and the pegasus is a screamer with speed. I am moving all my files (aperture libarary, iphoto library, and FCE stuff) to the pegasus seeing as the cute little internal HD doesn't hold much.
    I've been able to find out how to move iMovie files from my internal drive and various other asundry of external FW800 drive into the pegasus 12TB to consolidate them in one place. All seems well after a few months of figuring this out, getting a quasi-workflow going.
    Now I'm stuck a bit. I have Aperture and iPhoto showing up in my event library as having vidoes. I used to use iPhoto to manage videos that were simple point and shoot camera style vids. I now want to take the many files and do the same as I've done with all other video: move the video files under iMovie control on the Pegasus.
    Problem: I can't seem to make this work except in one fashion: drag each and every individual clip over to an event in iMovie under Pegasus drive. Talk about time consuming!  Not only that, it doesn't move it, it copies it. Then I have to go back and delete it in iphoto.
    I've tried making a smart folder in iPhoto to find videos and then hopefully export them to the desktop. Then I could import into iMovie on the pegasus. No go. Can't find the videos. They are somehow scattered about inside of iPhoto in such a manner that I can't seem to find them unless I open each project and manuall search them out. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong here, has to be an easier way.
    I tried highlighting all the videos on iphoto that show up in the imovie events library and just doing a mass drag/drop. Not go. Just doesn't do it. Ignores me.
    I'm out of ideas.
    How does one get video scattered around inside of iPhoto (and to a lesser extent, aperture) so that I can consolidate them under iMovies control on the pegasus?
    Thanks
    Robert

    iMovie can access those movies that are inside iPhoto. Just look in the Event pane of iMovie and click on the iPhoto icon:
    All of the movies in iPhoto will be displayed at the right where you can access them for whatever project you'd like.
    Otherwilse you'd have to export all of them out of iPhoto using the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option and use the Format = Original option.  Them move them into a folder in the Movies fodler and let iMovie find them there. Then you'd have to do that each time you import a movie into iPhoto or manually upload the photos and movies ot a folder on your Desktop and then import the photos only into iPhoto and move the movie files into the Movie folder.
