I am in my icloud on a pc
signed in etc.
Where are the photo's that are supposed to be in icloud

You can't view photo stream photos on icloud.com. They can only be viewed on an iOS device or computer that is signed into your account with photo stream enabled. To set this up on your PC, see http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html. Note: when you first enable photo stream on your PC you will only get photos from the last 30 days as older photos are no longer in iCloud.

HT201317 where are my photos stored on icloude

how do i access my photos on icloude

Photo Stream "pushes" image files (not videos) to your other devices for 30 days. Maximum of 1,000 files.
If you've enabled an iCloud backup of your iPhone and included your image files, you can restore the files using that backup.

Where are the photos in the organizer located?

When I put photos in the organizer, does the organizer make copies of the originals? Where are they located on the hard drive?

You don't put any photo in the organizer : the location on the drive of the media files and their properties are written in the catalog database together with a small thumbnail. The photos stay where you have put them.
If you are 'getting photos or videos' from camera or card reader, you are using an accessory module (the downloader) to upload from your camera card to your computer before the photos are registered in the organizer catalog. You can check the location where the files are written in your computer in the Edit / preference menu of the organizer. You can specify where you want the photos to be stored on your computer.
After the photos are downloaded from your card, the organizer automatically reads the location and properties of those files and writes that info in the database.
If you are 'getting photos from files or folders', there is no copy, the updating of the database is made from the already present files on your computer.
It's up to you to chose if you want to use the downloader or simply use other ways to get the photos from your card to your computer.

Where are the photos I'm taking for my contact list?

I took a few pics of people for my contact list but I cannot for the life of me find out where they are being stored...I checked the camera roll but no luck..also how do I create new albums? everything is going into camera roll

Greetings Darren. When you take a photo for a contact using the camera and then add it to a contact, it is stored in your camera roll, and the photo also becomes part of the .vcf file for that contact. When you take a photo for a contact in the edit contact screen, it is only added to the .vcf for that particular contact.
Hope this helps!

Where are the photos gone? Help!

Hi, maybe this is a known topic, but stilll...
I have iPhoto 7.1.1
I wanted to have some photos in a separate iPhoto library
I duplicated the actual iPhoto Library
I opened the original iPhoto Library and deleted the some photos and web gallery albums
Then I opened the copy of the iPhoto Library. It isempty!
Then I opened a backup of the original iPhoto Library on an external volume. This was empty too!
The same gose for anothe iPhoto Library I used to order calendars, it is now empty.
How can I recover the original Photos?
Thanks,
Andre

Andre:
How did you duplicate your original library? Open the duplicate library package like this, look inside the Originals folder and see if your photos are there.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Where are the photos?

When I want to import a picture in InDesign I can't find my pictures on the harddisc. I used to do it this way: make a frame in InDesign, press command-d to open the window to choose the file, go to "pictures - iphoto library" and navigate to the photo I want to place in InDesign. But that's not possible in iphoto8. I can't open the iphoto library anymore. What happened here? iPhoto is useless if I can't use the files in other programs. With drag and drop it's 1) not comfortable for me and 2) the photos that are imported are in a low resolution. When I export the photos to Photoshop and save them on the desktop, import to InDesign works - of course. But doing this with every photo is very annoying.
Does anyone know how to navigate to the fotos via the finder?
thx

There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.

Where are the photos stored?

I'm currently storing my photos in folders in finder.
I'm editing them a lot in photshop, using them for both print and web.
I like the way Iphoto gives me a way to overerwiev the pictures.
Is there anyone that know where Iphoto stores "the originals"?
I looked into the pakage of Iphoto-library and found some pics in
"masters" but every single pic was in different folders..
anyone?

By default, iPhoto stores the photos in the iPhoto Library in your Pictures Folder.
How they are stored there (and it's by date and time of import, btw) is of no interest as you never access them there.
The point of iPhoto is that it manages the photos. Everything you need to do with them can be done either with or via iPhoto.
So, if you want to use iPhoto and Photoshop:
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
As an FYI
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Where are the photos stored on the computer?

When I used the camera software to import my photos, the photos wind up in the Pictures folder. But the photos in iPhoto are nowhere to be found on my hard disk. Where are they except in the program itself?

By default, the photos are stored in the iPhoto Library in your Pictures Folder.
With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
Want to see inside? Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
Want to access your files?
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.

HT201317 where are my photos?

I have photo stream turned on and photos are being pushed to all my devises but I cant find any photos on icloud.com?

You know a photo has made it as far as Photo Stream if it appears in the Photo Stream collection, on that device or any other. (Test: Stick device in airplane mode and press the home & power buttons for a screencap. Image appears in Photos but not Photo Stream until it makes the round trip via Wi-Fi after coming out of airplane mode.)
From the article...
"You can delete photos from your Photo Stream the same way you delete other photos from your device. Just select the photo you want to remove and tap or click Delete. When you delete a photo from Photo Stream on one device, iCloud will automatically delete it from the Photo Stream album or view on your other devices."
Once they are in Photo Stream I guess you can delete the copy from the main Camera Roll, but they only way you can be certain your computer has a copy would be to check with a remote control tool. Again only an issue if you expect to be away for an extended period. Note extracting photos from anywhere other than the Camera Roll on the device is not a trivial task.
The article also says that devices hold the last 1000 images but "Since your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, they automatically download and keep every photo from your Photo Stream by default." The earlier text implies that deleting from Photo Stream also deletes any copy successfully delivered to your computer, but that is a slight contradiction with "keep every" I think it probably deletes on demand but I will check when I'm at home. (Windows 7 box in receipt of Photo Stream collection.)
As it stands it seems you need to leave at least one copy in either the Camera Roll (Photos) or Photo Stream to be certain that you can access it from your computer when you get back.

Lost my most recent upload - where are the photos?

I had been having lots of problems with my iMac and Time Machine so I backed everything up and took it in around Christmas. I am only now getting back to using iPhoto again, so my most recent upload was 3+ months of photos, mostly of my sweet young children. When I opened iPhoto the other day, it didn't have an associated library (as I had copied it to my Time Machine external hard-drive and then deleted the one from ~Pictures) so I copied and pasted the one from my drive back in there. I believe that I reopened iPhoto and it just found the library at that point. Anyway, I saw all my old photos in there. I then uploaded the new ones from my camera and, of course, deleted them from the camera....Sigh....
Anyway, today I was doing software updates and synching my new iPhone so everything got shut down. When iPhoto opened up, it asked me which library to use, so I selected the iPhotoLibrary option it gave me, assuming it had everything in it, but when iPhoto opened, I didn't have any of the photos from my last update. Can anyone tell me where on earth they went and where I should look for them? I am incredibly sad to not know where three months of my children's lives has disappeared, especially since it was Christmas and birthdays in there! Please please please tell me the photos are living somewhere and I can get them. I tried searching for the next photo name my camera would have created but oddly that seems to have taken me back to photos from 2007 (I guess my camera is re-using names?).
Thanks in advance.

First, open the library package with the Finder
Click to view full size
and look in the subfolders in the Originals folder to see if your image files are still there. If they are make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in the Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select last three options.
Click to view full size
Fix #3
Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->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.

Where are the photo editing options on the iPad 1?

I have the ipad1 with ios5 and I was looking forward to the new photo editing features, but I don't seem to have them. Can anyone tell me where they are? I looked in the manual and followed directions but there is no edit button when viewing a photo full screen.

GravGuy-
I have the iPad 2, if that matters. When I first open a photo, there is an Edit option at the top, to the right of center. After a few seconds the option disappears if it has not been selected. Pressing at the top of the photo brings it back.

Loaded information from hard drive to new computer without iphoto. where are the photos i had in iphoto?

Hi there,
I spilled beer on an older macbook and it was too pricey to repair. I had the Apple store save all files and information from the harddrive to an external hard drive. I moved all the files and information onto a refurbished macbook. The refurbished macbook does not have ilife, particularly iphoto. All of the photos that I had in iphoto on the old computer are gone. Are they still available someplace? How do I get to them? If I can not access them on my new computer without iphoto can I exchange the old hard drive for the new one? Thank you very much.
e

The iPhoto library that was on the hard drive of the damaged Macbook will still be there.
I suggest you take the hard drive out of the dead MB and install it in an inexpensive external enclosure. Something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/Vantec-NexStar-2-5-Inch-External-Enclosure/dp/B002JQNXZC
Once you have the drive in the enclosure you can connect it to your new Mac, install iPhoto on the new Mac, and access the library. This step can be tricky, so post back when you are ready.

Photos iTunes Apple tv issue - where are the photos?

Hi - We've just installed Apple tv. In iTunes, I went to File/Home Sharing/Choose Photos to share with Apple tv. Followed the instructions, hit "Apply", and it appeared to work (I'd chosen an iPhoto Event with only 3 photos in it, and the window under "Home Sharing" now says 3Photos). So all looks fine, except I have no idea where to find the photos in iTunes. (I'd expected an icon would turn up under the iTunes Library list)
If anyone can help me out I'd really appreciate it - thanks!
Lynne

Oh gosh thanks so much, it never occurred to me to go to the Apple TV screen - this has much more to it than I'd imagined - I'd only heard that people watched things and played games etc that we have no interest in, and we only got it because I found out about the mirroring, and that I could use the tv as a 2nd monitor - which I'd love to do when in iPhoto and iMovie. It appears to either store copies of the photos or keep the link intact...I'm wondering what its capacity is if it stores.
But - I'm not going to bother you or anybody else with more questions, until I've spent a lot more time on this myself. For the moment, I'll use the mirroring - just once, to review my very old photos inherited from grandparents - when my cousins who did the initial research come over we can all look at them on the tv screen - I scanned them all, and they show SO much better than the real photos do - we'll be able to see them as we never have before.
Then I'll give this Apple TV to our son and his family, and replace it when I have more time than I do at the moment to enjoy learning all about it.
Thank you so much for your help -
Lynne

Where are the photos I uploaded through web gallery?

G'day people
People have uploaded photos to my web galleries but they never appear in iPhoto and never make it into the web gallery either.
I just tried to upload a photo into an event on the web gallery. Everything looked fine and it appeared to accept the upload. However, the photo is not appearing in the event on the web gallery let alone iPhoto itself.
Any ideas?
Al

I had someone upload photos to my web gallery and they would show up when I used Safari to look at the gallery page. When looking at the gallery page in iPhoto only the original photos appeared and didn't include the ones my friend uploaded. The problem was finding out how to get them into iPhoto's library.
I found, somewhere in the "help", a statement that you had to start iPhoto, then highlight the web gallery album, then click on the publish/sync icon (just to the right of the gallery album). This synced
my source gallery page to the published page.
However, I did have a problem arise. My friend uploaded a couple of duplicates. I was able to delete one of the duped shots but cannot get rid of the other one. No matter what I do, each time I click on the "publish icon" the dup shot comes back!
One last thing, to get the new uploaded photos into iPhoto, you have to select them and add them to the appropriate Event, otherwise they exist only on the web gallery and do not reside permanently in iPhoto. At least I think this is how it is working!!!!
