Adding Photos from other folders?

Hi, I just discovered iDVD - ha! - and I use DVDSP/FCP professionally, but for DVDs of the kids I think I want to use this app as it's so much fun (as compared to DVDSP). But the only problem that I see is that I can't use my Photo folders on the network. For movies, I found the preference for add folders, works great, but i don't see the same thing for photos. It looks like things must be in the iPhoto catalogue or Photo Booth?!? thx for your advice!!!

You can drag photos in from any folder. They don't have to be in iPhoto. Just don't move them from their location until after you have burned your disks or a disk image of your iDVD project. If you move, change or rename any media used in the project, iDVD will be unable to locate them and will not burn.
If you are referring to putting a photo file onto the DVD-ROM area so that viewers can put the burned DVD into their computers and download the photos used in your project, follow these directions from iDVD Help:
+Adding photos and movies from slideshows to the DVD-ROM contents+
+Here are ways to add photos to the DVD-ROM portion of a disc:+
+To set iDVD to always add photos automatically:+
+Choose iDVD > Preferences.+
+Click Slideshow.+
+Select the “Always add original photos to DVD-ROM contents” checkbox.+
+To add slideshow images to the DVD-ROM contents on a case-by-case basis:+
+Open the slideshow editor by double-clicking the button for your slideshow on the DVD menu, and then click the Settings button.+
+Select the “Add image files to DVD-ROM” checkbox.+

How do you get Itunes to only sync newly added photos from my phone to the computer and not every photo on my phone each time I try to sync?

HT1338 I have added photos from iPhoto into Photo Stream and enabled my iCloud but I can't see any uploaded photos. Does this sound right?

Enable PhotoStream in iCloud first, then add the photos to PhotoStream in iCloud. Of course, you will need PhotoStream also enabled on your other devices also in order to view them.

What does "Easily import photos from other applications" really mean?

What does "Easily import photos from other applications" really mean in the Lightroom 4 features list? I also see it stated as "...from other software" as well. Yes, I understand the LR can import from Elements libraries but can't find any reference to other applications anywhere, not in the online help, not in the user guide, not in any videos on Adobe TV. It would be nice if LR could see into iPhoto or Aperture libraries but that doesn't appear to be the case. Is that assumption correct? What other applications can LR import from?

Hello bbb34vball,
Since that article didn't help, I would suggest trying the steps in this article next:
iOS: Unable to import photos to computer - Apple Support
If that doesn't resolve your issue, you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources - https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action.

I have Windows7. HOw can I download shared photostream photos from others' shared photostream

I use Windows7. How can I download shared photostream photos from others' shared photosteam photos using ICloud?

How are you doing the downloading?
If you download raw files with iPhoto, iPhoto can only edit the JPEG preview that is embedded with each raw file. iPhoto is not a true raw editor, because it's a consumer-level product, not professional-level.
The files should remain in RAW format if you download any of these ways, by using:
Apple Image Capture (in your Utilities folder)
Canon Digital Photo Professional (comes with your camera, but since the 40D is so old, go to the Canon site and upgrade your copy to the latest version for compatibility with the latest Mac OS X)
Apple Aperture
Adobe Lightroom
Any other professional raw organizer/editor like Capture One

UNABLE TO ACCESS MY PHOTOS FROM OTHER PROGRAMS

Hi new Mac user here. can anyone shed some light on a small problem I am having.
I am trying to upload my images to a photo library, but when i click on the select file button it opens up another window allowing me to navigate to where my images are stored in iphoto. I navigate to pictures etc, but when I get to iphoto it is greyed out and won't let me locate the image I want to upload.
Any ideas why I cannot select my photos which are in seperate folders within iphoto library?

There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
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. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
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.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
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.

Ps cs6 i can open photos in the same folder into layers panel, but how do you open photos from seperate folders into layer panel

what is the method of taking a single photo from 3 different folders and have them all open in the layers panel

Let get the term right. Photoshop has a Layers Palette. The Layers palette show the layers in the current active document your working on in Photoshop. If you have more the one open document they will be in a Tabbed View or Floating Image Windows or Minimized. The list of open documents is in Photoshop menu Windows at the bottom. You can also open more then one image into a single document as a stack of layers and also place, paste and copy in image into a document into a new layer. The layers Palette shows the layers in the current document the one your actively working on. The layers changes as you work on layers and the whole palette changes when you switch between open documents.

How can I move photos from other albums into the camera roll

I have synced photos from my computer onto the iPad. There placed in a different album. How can I move them into the camera roll?

You could do it by setting up a Shared Photo Stream. Select the photos in the Photo app then tap the Shared button selecting Photo Stream. Just don't enter any email address and it will appear on your other devices. Only photos can be added and not albums so you will have to re-organize then on the iPhone.
I would recommend getting the photos to the computer as well though. Create a photo library on the computer and sync then over to the iphone with iTunes. The photo library on the computer can be added to a more reliable backup.

Syncing photos from several folders in iTunes to iOS devices

Hi,
I am trying to set up iTunes to sync photos on my MacBook Pro to my iOS devices (first of all, my iPhone 5, but to my iPad mini and iPad 3 as well).
I happen to store my photos in a folder with a several level hierarchy: in the main photo folder there are folders for each year, in those there are folders for each event, and in those there is a separate folder for the subset of my photos that I want to be synced (photos that I like the most).
Apparently, iTunes allows to select folders for syncing in only 1 level of hierarchy. That would mean that one must not have separate folders for each year, nor for good and not-so-good photos - only one basic photo folder, and inside that folders for each event, and so every photo from selected events would be synced.
I tried a workaround: I created a specific new folder especially for syncing purposes, and I defined Smart Folders inside it. These Smart Folders would contain my desired photos virtually. (I didn't want to make physical copies of my photos, because I did not want to waste disc space.) But then it turned out that iTunes does not recognize photos in Smart Folders, only those in physical folders.
Can you give me a solution, how could I sync photos in iTunes to my iOS devices, if these photos are not in folders that are only one but more level deep in hierarchy?
Thanks a lot,
Mikulka

It works the way it works. I'd recommend you create a separate folder for any photos that you want to put on your devices, with one layer of subfolders as separate albums. Each device can sync with a different selection of those album folders.

Syncing Photos from different folders...?

I know it never worked in the beginning-but has someone found a way to sync photos not from only one folder but from different folders to the ipod?
something like a photo playlist...?

You can sync from different folders if they are all sub-folders beneath a main one. If the main folder you are syncing from has sub folders they will show in the box below "Sync photos from folder". For example you may choose to sync from My Pictures and inside My Pictures you have folders for different subjects. You can choose which of those subject folders you want to update to the iPod or you might want to make a folder in there especially for iPod photos. You can drag these folders into an order of your choice.
Here's a simple "How To" on downloading photos from a folder and sub folders on your hard disk to an iPod:
1 Create a folder on your hard drive to hold the photos you want on your iPod. Call it iPod Photos for example
2 Inside this folder create as many other folders as you want (or drag and drop existing ones from other locations on your hard drive)
3 Drag the photos you want from your usual picture folder into the appropriate folders you just created. (not necessary if you are using pre-existing folders already containing photos)
4 Open iTunes, select your iPod in the iTunes Source list.
5 Click the Photos tab and select “Synch photos from.”
6 Choose “Choose Folder” from the pop-up menu and select the iPod photos folder you created.
7 Choose the radio button "Selected folders"
8 Tick the folders you want to go on the iPod and click Apply
When you go to Photos on your iPod you'll see each of the folders you have chosen in the menu and you can choose whichever one you want to view.

How to Interleave photos from different folders to Create a Slideshow.

I have LR 1.4.1 and am trying to create a slide show from photos collected in folders marked by the day they were taken. In addition there is a folder loaded with jpeg Title Pages intended to be inserted to mark the beginning of a new day in the slide show.
I am having trouble figuring out whether I should be in Library to interleave all these photos and title pages or in Slideshow. I am not able to reorder or compile into a new order in any mode I can detect. Should I be in a Quick Collection or just a Collection or somewhere else to order all the slides. Should I be in Grid view or Loupe view? Can I see the order and alter it in the Film Strip perhaps? I need to be able to SEE the slides from a source and the resulting ordered slides for a slide show to accomplish this.
Has anyone had this problem and solved it? I tried to accomplish this in iPhoto with no luck. Is what I am trying to do outside the norm for creating slide shows?
Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
Raymond Zachary

Ray,
It sounds like you tried to open a new catalog, not create a collection.
Go under the file menu and click open recent. You should see your old catalog listed. Once you have that opened, go through and mark all the photos you want. You can use color labels, or some nonsence keyword, like qwqw or any method you like. Once you have them all marked, be sure you have all photos selected, then filter for your keyword or color lable, or whatever you marked them with. Then select all those photos. Then go down the right panel until you see Collections. Click on the + icon. In the dialog box that opens, give your collection a name and be sure the box "Add selected photos to this collection" is checked. Then click OK. Now you'll have a collection of the photos you want to use. If you want to add any to the collection, you can just drag them into the collection name. Be sure you're dragging from the thumbnail, and not from the border around the thumbnail. If you want to remove a photo from the collection, just right click it and check remove selected photo from collection.
You can then take your collection, and reorder them anyway you like. And then go to the slideshow module and there you go.
Hope this makes sense.

I want to delete photos from my folders that I already deleted from LR

I didn't realize I was not removing photos from disc. Now I want to remove the unwanted files from my folders but I can't figure out a way to mass delete them. Please help!

There is no way to mass delete the photos that have been removed from Lr.
Win Explorer / Mac Finder don't recognize what's been in Lr and been removed.
And once they're removed from Lr that's it. For Lr they're non-existent.
But you could re-import them folder by folder by doing <Synchronize folder>. Lr will display them under <Previous Import> in the Catalog panel (left side in Library Module). Highlight them all by doing Ctrl./Cmd. + "A", then right-click, select <delete> and then select <Delete from disk>.
Next time, when you don't want to delete images from disk right away, create a special folder (call it "candidates for deletion") and drag the images in there, That way the images remain in Lr and you can later on <delete from disk> from within Lr.

Adding photos from iphoto to ipod nano 6th generation

I want to take photos from iphoto (mac os x 10.6.8) and put them on my ipod nano 6th generation. I can't find anything on itunes that mentions photos and my ipod doesn't show up in iphoto or applications.

Thanks. I followed through with those instructions. Now when I go to sync, I don't want everybody else's music to show up on my ipod. How do I sync? And if I check sync only checked songs, will it sync ALL checked songs? We have alot of songs, but I don't want all of them. How can I manually sync?
Thanks!
