IPhoto 2 and exporting to camera

Got IPhoto 2 and want to export pics to the memory card in the digital camera via usb connection. Is this possible or do I need to upgrade the IPhoto
Thanks

Simple,
I did it many times!
1-create an empty folder on desktop say called "Photocopie"
2- select from iPhoto the pics and drag them onto the empty folder on desktop (Photocopie). ( you will now have duplicates)
3- quit iPhoto. (because next step is connecting camera and you don't want iPhoto to think that you are about to upload pic to the computer)
4- connect your camera and wait for the icon to show on desktop
5- within the camera icon navigate to the appropriate folder where the photos are located. Next to it, open the folder "Photocopie" and you can copy the photos from "Photocopie" to "cam icon folder. This is provided that some of the file names are not the same, because you will have a problem and get a message "same name file....."
Not sure what camera you are using, but I use Sony, and you can create sub folder like 101, 102, 103.... this way if some same name pics show up in 101, you can spread them into a diffferent folder such as 102 or 103. The newer camera allow different folder.
Hope this works. If not post back!
furthermore, you need to prevent iPhoto to launch when you connect you camera. go to application> image capture, and in the preferences, set it to "no applications" and that will allow you to connect your camera without having iPhoto getting in the way!

  • I took a photo class and the tech showed me how to take iPhoto images and export to an external hard drive. However, I do not recall how this was done. Can anyone provide me with step by step instructions? TIA!

  • IPhoto opening and downloading from camera

    Two problems: When I open iPhoto from Applications or from Dock, it doesn't open. I can search for a file and find one that is already in a file but am unable to get into the organize/edit/ library. Also, when downloading from my camera, the files do not go into the library. I can find the photo files by clicking on the camera icon, but i have to open them one by one. They do not just download and open in my iPhoto Library.

    re: "There is nothing in Image Capture! Now?"
    By "nothing in Image Capture", what exactly do you mean?
    Did you open Image Capture and then go to the Image Capture Menu in your top menu bar then select its preferences and click on the "Camera" tab of its preferences and then click on the pop up menu and select which application (iPhoto?) to open when a camera is connected? Or is iPhoto selected and still does not open when you connect your camera?

  • How do I stop my pictures from doubling when I look in the "photo view". This only started with ios7, and im pretty sure its because my photos are both in my iphoto library and on my camera roll. Help!

    Ever since I upgraded to ios 7, i can not look in the photos tab, because every one of my pictures appears twice. I know its because my iphoto library from my computer and my camera roll are being put together, however there must be a way to not have doubles. Help on this issue please!

    Well never figured out how to go around this, but I did just manually do it in photoshop. My middle grey and white cards must not be right.

  • Camera rotation problem when exporting a camera from After Effects CC to Cinema 4D 15

    Looking around, this problem is happening to a few people, with no satisfactory solution.
    Basically, when I export an AE camera / project into C4D, everything looks great... till I notice that the camera's horizon will jump a few times.... so that if it were tilted 20 degrees to the left, it will pop to be tilted 20 degrees to the right.
    It's definitely not in the footage- it's a simple walk down a hallway. The AE track is fine- it's only in the C4D track that the problem arises.
    I've tried creating new AE projects, re-exporting, etc. I'm running AE CC and C4D 15.
    Anyone ever figure out how to fix / get around this?
    Thanks!

    It's 13.2.0.49... I just installed it yesterday.
    C4D is R15.008
    I'm wondering if I would have the same issue with C4D Lite, but I can't figure out how to open it (I assume it downloaded with AE). Rather than launch Lite, AE seems to automatically find C4D 15 and open that.
    I've been using AE and C4D for over 15 years, so I'm quite familiar with both. The bug is odd and quite disappointing, as I bought this version of AE specifically so that I could track footage and export the camera info into C4D.
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!

  • IPhoto won't export cropped iPad and iPhone screen shots

    I started a thread for this thinking it was affecting my whole iPhoto library, when I export a cropped image I get the original. I thought I'd solved it by rebuilding my library, then realized the issue was only manifesting with iPad screen shots. I tested it on iPhone screen shots too, same issue. Photos taken with any camera, even the iPad camera are fine, I can crop and export those. Any iOS screen shot refuses to export a cropped version. I tried all the different choices for "kind" in "export."
    Is this a new feature? You have to be sure to crop a screen shot on the iPad or iPhone before you sync to iPhoto?

    Mac mini 2011, Mavericks 10.9.2, iPhoto 9.5.1, iPad Air iOS 7.0.6, iPhone 5S iOS 7.0.6

    What format is the external drive the Library sits on?
    Rather than trying to move libraries try repair the existing one:
    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.

  • Up until approx 2 months ago I could select video clips downloaded from my camera and e-mail them.Iphoto9.4.3. This no longer works.  I have tried dragging to my desktop and exporting to my desktop.  I am not sure what has changed.  Any ideas?

    Simply, sharing video via email is not advisable.
    Many email services have an attachment limit of 20mb and some a limit of 10mb. As emails are sent through an array of relays, the effective limit is the smallest file size allowed on any of the relays.  That means that video is rarely suitable for emailing.
    Then there's the whole issue of Codecs and not all machines will have the codecs to play all videos. Plus, folks with slower connections can find it very inconvenient to download large video files.
    Finally, sharing video from iPhoto via email is not supported. All that gets you is the Movie thumbnail. If you feel you must share via email then you'll need to export the video first, and attach that. Use the File -> Export command and set the kind  to Original.
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
    Other than that your options include:
    Upload it to a sharing site like YouTube or Vimeo and email a link - these will allow the recipient to view the material online. That will avoid the codec issues mentions, and the person can still download the video file if they wish.
    Upload it to sharing services like Dropbox or YouSendIt and email a link. This will require that they download the material to their machines to view.

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • HT4236 I've run out of room on my hard drive. I bought an external drive and exported all my albums to the external drive then deleted the albums from iPhoto. I want to sync both from my ext drive and new albums in iPhoto. No dice. Help!

    I've run out of room on my hard drive. I bought an external drive and exported all my albums to the external drive then deleted the albums from iPhoto. I want to sync both from my ext drive and new albums in iPhoto. My photos on the devices get wiped out when I sync to iPhoto since I deleted all the albums. But when I sync to my hard drive (where I maintained the album structure) the photos are copied to my iPad but lose all the hierarchy and folder structure. Now I have to scroll through thousands of photos to try to find the one I'm looking for. Before I sync any more devices I want to know the following: 1) can I restore the album structure on my iPad by using the photo cache? 2) is there a way to sync both new iPhoto albums AND pictures in the folders in my hard drive? And 3) how can I keep the photo hierarchy structure from my hard drive intact on my devices?

    Don't do that.
    Copy /Photos/Photo library/ to the external.
    Hold Option and launch iPhoto.
    Select Choose library and select the Photo library you copied to the external.

    Yes
    I've edited and exported an image to a different folder on my desktop. I've realised I still need to do some work on it
    but when I try and open it again in Lightroom ( I see it in Library)  I get a mesaage saying file not found...Please help
    We're going to need a lot more details aobut exactly (EXACTLY) the steps you follow after you do the export, because normally I would say this is one of the easiest things possible in Lightroom. Are any files moved or renamed or disks unplugged in between the time of export and the time when you try to edit again?

  • Can't make a slideshow with iPhoto. Won't play and export Slideshow is gray

    I'm trying to export an album to a slideshow in iPhoto '09 and cannot. Whenever I select the "Slideshow" option, it turns gray like in a click and hold, but stays gray and the the box never flips over to Slideshow.
    Also, when I click the slideshow button at the bottom of an event or album, it just sits there. The program doesn't freeze, but it doesn't start a slideshow. Under the "File" menu, "Close Window" is my only selectable option. When I select it, the screen fades to black, comes back, and then closes the program.
    Has anyone else come across this problem and (preferably) come across a solution?
    Thanks!

    First try the easy fix: delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and try again.

  • IPhoto 6 and Camera Compatibility

    I recently upgraded my OS to 10.5.8 from 10.4... I know very late. I had no intention until the upgrade to my iPhone 3GS required it. Regardless, I am running IPhoto 6.0.6 and it has worked fine. I own a Canon T1i EOS Rebel digital camera. Up until the conversion to Leopard, I would plug the camera into the port and iPhoto would open up and transfer the pics without an issue. Today, I tried to upload pictures, the USB cord was secure on both sides and nothing happened. I turned the camera on and off twice to see if by starting it up connected would change things, nothing did. I ensured that the battery is charged in the camera and that the sleep setting was not tampered with thus not allowing it to transfer.
    I am suspicious about the upgrade to Leopard causing this incompatibility issue with my camera. When I did a search on the apple website, the page about iPhoto 6 and camera compatibility is a dead link. So a couple of questions if someone would be kind enough to help me out with:
    1) Is the import of pictures not occuring because of an incompatibility issue between my camera and iPhoto 6 suddenly? Or is incompatibility between 10.5.8 and iPhoto 6?
    2) What is the best solution? Upgrade to iLife '11? Or will that require upgrading to Snow Leopard as well? Or is it better to buy the $129 bundle of Snow Leopard, iLife and iWork for compatibility issues?
    3) Lastly, is there a webpage on apple that shows these compatibility issues? For instance, if I upgrade one thing in the future, all the other software suites that need updating as well?
    Thanks in advance to whomever can help me.
    Cheers,
    -Tod

    1) Is the import of pictures not occuring because of an incompatibility issue between my camera and iPhoto 6 suddenly? Or is incompatibility between 10.5.8 and iPhoto 6?
    Neither. The usual cause for this issue can be a damaged plist file, a setting on the camera or Mac or minor directory damage on the card.
    Plist file: Can you access the card with Image Capture (in your Applications Folder)? If so, you might try trash the iPhoto plist file, if not try trash the Image Capture plist file as well.
    Settings: What's set to happen when you connect the camera? With iPhoto 6 that's in the Image Capture. Your camera has two modes for talking to the Mac: Mass Storage and PTP. What one are you set to? Try the other one.
    Directory Damage: Have you tried using a USB Card Reader? Can the Mac see the card in that?

  • IPhoto 08 and the missing Shutterfly button for exporting

    Does any know what happened to the shutterfly button that was in iPhoto 06 for exporting, it seems to be gone in the 08 version???
    Help my wife is giving me grief about upgrading to Leopard and iPhoto 08!!

    If shutterfly has an export plugin for iPhoto '08 it typically would need to be installed from Shutterfly (it is not an Apple product) and then would appear as a tab in the file menu ==> export pager
    Check out the Shutterfly page for iPhoto '08 (version 7.x.x) assistance

  • I have a sony hdr td 20ve 3d video camera. Is it possible to import into iMovie 11, edit and export in 3D? I have an iMac 2008 model running Lion 10.7.4

    Is it possible to import 3d from the Sony 3D videocamera,model HDR TD 20VE into iMovie 11, edit and export the files to iDVD and produce a disc that plays on a 3d compatible DVD player?

    Yes, you can purchase Lion as well as iPhoto and iMovie from the App Store. But before you can do that you must update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 by installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 update. Then you can sign into the App Store with your Apple ID and password, locate the items you want, purchase them, and download them to your computer.
