Photos from computer to empty card for digital photo frame?

I've downloaded 1,000 photos from my camera to the computer and want to empty the card and use it afresh. Is it possible to then load a selection of photos from iPhoto 6 onto an empty card so that I can play a short selection in a digital photo frame? and please how do I do it?
Thanks,
Elizabeth

If you want to clear a card simply use your camera to Reformat the card. It takes a couple of seconds to do it. For specific details on doing it on your camera see your manual, or root around in the menus
To put pics on a Card for a digital frame:
Select the pics in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export them to a Folder on the desktop. Then drag that folder of images to the Card.
Most cameras will mount their cards on the Desktop. However some brands (not mentioning Canon and Kodak in particular, just in passing) don't. The only way around this is to pop the card in a USB Card Reader, and it will turn up on the desktop.

  • I cant print a photo from computer.

    I cant print a photo from computer. I can print a photo if I send it to the printer via my computer. The touch screen dont give me a choice of to get photo from computer. Only scan from glass or memory card....Not computer

    What printer model?  Printers generally do not have the capability to access computer's hard drives to access pictures or other files.  You can print from the computer or you could load pictures from the computer to a camera card inserted in the printer nad then print the pictures from the card.

  • How to upload photos from computer to camera memory card?

    I want to copy a few select photos and AVI files from the Organizer back to a new camera memory card.

    A new message was posted by Colin Walls:
    how to upload photos from computer to camera memory card:
    Open Organizer. Then open Windows Explorer [My Computer] and navigate to the memory card "drive." Drag the images from Organizer to the memory card.
    Dear Colin Walls:
    Thanks for your excellent tip. It works just as you said. The WHY I want to do this is:
    when I want to print a lot of pictures, I take my memory card to Longs Drug store and use their "machine." Naturally, I want to have all the photos I need on the card.
    A few days ago at Longs, I edited about 75 photos of a recent family reunion from my 512MB SD card taken with my Canon PowerShot A510. I ended up ordering 198 4x6 prints. My daughter had several good reunion photos on her digital camera. She e-mailed me seven photos as attachments, thus they were on my computer, but not on my memory card, until I started dragging as per the hint from Colin Walls.
    Windows Explorer shows the file structure on the card as one DCIM folder, with subfolders 155 CANON, 156 CANON, 157 CANON, 158 CANON, and CANONMSC. I proceeded to drag each my daughter's seven photos from PS Elem. 4 Organizer to the folder 158 CANON, except that I dragged one to the folder CANONMS, by mistake.
    The good news is that Longs machine and PS Elem. 4 both see ALL the photos on the card. The bad news is that my camera does not see the added photos, nor does the Canon ZoomBrowser 3.2 and 5.5 programs,nor the Picasa2 program.
    Thanks Colin. Gary Docherty

  • Need app. for recovering photos from a reformatted CF card.

    Are there any other apps. for recovering photos from a reformatted CF card besides Lexars Image Rescue?

    Don:
    I've used MediaRECOVER with great success.
    Do you Twango?
    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 written 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • 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
    To copy photos taken with the iPad, copied to via the kit or saved from emails/websites etc from the iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

    And to diversify the use of that port, you could get this specialized adapter:

  • I am unable to download photos from iPhone 4, SD card and SLR camera to iPad 2 using apple accessories. It worked once and then never again. Any ideas ?

    I am unable to download photos from my iphone4 , SD card , SLR camera to my ipad2 using apple accessories , please help , it has worked once and then never again.

    Plumchunks-
    The only accessory I know of that can be used to transfer photos from a camera or SD card to the iPad, is the Apple Camera Connection Kit.  The kit consists of two adapters.  One has an SD card socket.  The other has a USB connector to connect directly to the camera.
    I do not think you can transfer photos from the iPhone to the iPad unless you first transfer them to a computer.  If you then transfer the photos to an SD card, they must have eight character names plus suffix and be stored in a DCIM folder, just as if they came from a camera.
    One thing you can try is to reboot the iPad.  Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes.  Rebootting will not hurt anything and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

    how to upload photos from iPad to memory card or PC

    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;

  • For reasons best left unsaid, in a recent rebuild of my iMac andTime Capsule, I lost all my photos. I do however currently have them on my iPad. Is it possible to retrieve all my photos from the iPad back to iPhotos (now Photos) on my iMac?

    For reasons best left unsaid, in a recent rebuild of my iMac and Time Capsule, I lost all my photos. I do however have them all currently on my iPad. Is it possible to retrieve my photos from the iPad back to iPhotos (now Photos) on my iMac?

    have the photos on the iPad been taken with the iPad camera or imported using the camera connection kit?
    Or have they been synced to the iPad with iTunes?
    You can download any photos to your mac by connecting the iPad by USB to to your Mac and import to Phots, but this way only photos from the Camera Roll will be imported.  If your photos have been synced with iTunes, you can only mail them to your mac.
    See:  iOS: Syncing photos using iTunes
    You can't reimport pictures synced from your computer to your device back to your computer. You can only import pictures taken by your device, or saved to it, from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device, email the photos from the device to yourself. Then download the photos from the emails to your computer.

  • Can I move photos from computer A to computer B by importing them

    I imported photos from computer A onto my I Phone and I would like to move them to Computer B.... can connect my I Phone to computer B and transfer them as I would photos that I actually took from my I Phone... I know how to do this... i thought I could take the photos' from the I Phone that were not taken from the I Phone and move them as well.. but I cannot figure it out... please advise... thanks so much.. I do love the phone!

    No, you cannot. Syncing of photos is one way - from the computer to the iPhone for pics on the computer (and also one way the other way, from the iphone to the computer, for pics taken on the iPhone).
    The iPhone cannot be used as a USB disk drive.
    One workaround is to use one of the file transfer apps from the app store (File Magnet, Air Sharing, DataCase) - those apps do allow transfer of files bi-directionally and with multiple computers. You still could not move the pics from the Photos area of the iPhone - you'd need to transfer the pics using the app, then transfer them to the other computer.

  • Transfer photos from computer to my ipad air

    how to transfer photos from computer to ipad air?

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) 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; DSCN0164.jpg).
    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. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Problem importing photos from Extreme Pro SD Card

    Sorry if this has been covered. I atempted to import photos from my new CF card via a Griffin card reader into my iMAC. Never had a problem before, but iPhoto won't respond and won't recognize the card. Was able to import to my wife's MacBook Pro with no problem. Any thoughts? Thanks

    My appologies for wasting your time. The card reader has given up the ghost!
