Are images uploaded from desktop to iPhoto duplicated?

I just used Migration Assistant to move data from Windows laptop to my new iMac... The photos that were saved to my desktop were imported into iPhoto. Does this duplicate the images? Can I delete the desktop files?
Relative Newbie to OS X so thanks!

If you're using iPhoto in the default, managed library mode, then yes.
Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

Why duplicate images uploaded from iPhoto to Elements?

Uploading images from iPhoto to PS Elements 13 created duplicates of every image. I have a MAC with Maverick OS. Is this a problem for others? How does one organize in Elements with twice the number of images to handle? Very frustrating!!

Thanks for your reply, Barbara B.
iPhoto is slated to be discontinued in January 2015. I didn't mention that because of this, Elements will be my photo organizing software of choice, thus the upload.
Specifically, the issue I am having is that when uploading my 'unique' images from iPhoto to Elements, Elements duplicated each image, so now I have twice the number of images than were actually in iPhoto. There is no change in metadata, these are true duplicate images.
This seems to be an issue with Elements, and I wondered if anyone else has noticed the same problem?

Flex drag-n-drop upload from desktop

Is there a way to upload a file from the desktop by drag and
dropping the file a flex application running purely on the browser;
not using AIR. The examples that have seen from my research so far,
drag files/images which are already within the browser to another
location within the same browser.
I would be most grateful for quick anwer to my
question

Drag and drop from desktop to Flex App is neat, but I wonder
if this is possible:
<mx:TextInput ... />
<mx:Button label="Browse" click="openFileBrowser()" ...
/>
Someone says you can't drag and drop from desktop to browser:

HT201317 Photostream not uploading from iPhone to iPhoto

iPhone photos not uploading to my iMac iPhoto app. Everything is set to on for Photostream on both devices. Camera is shut down on phone. Wi-fi is set on for both devices. Phone shows in Photostream album. Nothing online in Photostream or iPhoto on Mac.

Same problem here! Just upgraded my iMac (Version 10.8 | 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo | 4 GB 1067 MHz RAM) to Mountain Lion this morning and all of a sudden my photostream will not sync photos from my iPad2 or iPhone4S to my iPhoto (fully updated) on the iMac.
Yes. iPhoto has been fully updated.
Yes. iPhone4S and iPad2 are also fully updated.
Yes. Wifi is good on all devices.
Yes. iPhone4S shows photostream working on it.
Yes. iPad2 shows photostream working on it.
Yes. iPhoto is enabled and signed in with iTunes account on my iMac.
And...
No. iPhoto on iMac will not bring the photos in from iPhone4S or iPad2.
Anyone have any ideas or know of any info regarding this? Thanks!

Safari/Firefox crashes on upload from Desktop

Hello, Safari crashes when i try to upload something from desktop. Also happened to firefox. Seem like finder have problem. Any idea how to fix it ?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report — they're very long and not helpful.

Image upload from Elements 11 Organizer

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone can tell me how to upload images from an album in Elements 11 Organizer to an online print service? I am using a Mac OSX 10.9.2.
Many thanks,
Graham

That's because Folders created in Bridge are folders at the operating system level. The equivalent in Organizer would be Folder you create in the Folder Hierarchy view.
Organizer Albums are closer in concept to Bridge Collections rather than folders, except in Organizer you don't need to use a search to create the Album.
Cheers,
Neale

Not all images uploading from camera..

When I upload images from my camera it will load some of them and then it acts like upload is complete. I have to hit upload several times to get a session uploaded that was shot all at the same time, anyone know what may cause this ? I didnt realize it did this and it just cost me a session that I have to reshoot now bc I thought all the images were uploaded but they werent.

Hi Michael sorry for your troubles - a really irritating issue to have!
This is usually a hardware issue.
You don't mention how you are downloading images.
In general most folks would strongly recommend not downloading straight from the camera because of the number of issues that occur.
If you are using a card-reader then it is likely that it is still a hardware issue.
It may be the card reader, the USB cable, or the USB controller (rarer but still possible).
If there is more to this let us know!

Why are photos uploaded from my iMac Photo Library to my family tree rotated 90 degrees?

I installed the new Photos software update for OS X 10.10.3 last week and have enabled iCloud Photo Library. I LOVE having the same interface to my Photos regardless of which Apple device I'm using and having any updates reflected everywhere but I'm running into a problem that I did not encounter with the previous iPhoto software.
I frequently take photos of other old family photos and documents of genealogical interest. I may make simple edits to those photos in iPhoto (now Photos) to enhance, rotate, crop, etc. and then upload them to my family tree on ancestry.com I've never had a problem with this in the past but with the most recent photos I've attempted to upload are all rotated 90 degrees left. The photos are all right side up in Photos regardless of which album I'm viewing them from. I've even tried exporting the photo (looking at it in preview, yes it's still right side up) but after uploading to ancestry.com, it's rotated. Have I found a glitch or am I doing something wrong? Can anyone suggest a workaround or something I could try to fix this?

If you use Screen Sharing you can run iPhoto on the iMac's library from your Mac Air just as if you were on the iMac itself. Even dropouts wouldn't hurt as they would only show up a momentary curser lapses because everything was being performed on the iMac.
However, I am able to do everything but edit photos even though I'm logged in as the admin user for the Mac. Give it a try and see if you can make it work. Here's what I have setup under sharing:

Image upload from HTML5 and Javascript

I have been struggling with this since a week.
No tutorial on the web was able to help me.
Here is what i am trying to do. I am trying to upload an image via HTML5 . I am confused on how i should send the image as. Should i send it directly the response from HTML5 File reader API or i should convert it to a blob and send it? I am able to upload
text data. But when i upload image data. They won't turn up .

You should send the data you read from File API. So in your code above, you should send the data in "requestData" variable. I wrote a blog post some time ago about uploading large files using HTML 5, jQuery and Shared Access Signature which you
may find useful:
http://gauravmantri.com/2013/02/16/uploading-large-files-in-windows-azure-blob-storage-using-shared-access-signature-html-and-javascript/
Relevant code from that blog post:
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onloadend = function (evt) {
if (evt.target.readyState == FileReader.DONE) { // DONE == 2
var uri = submitUri + '&comp=block&blockid=' + blockIds[blockIds.length - 1];
var requestData = new Uint8Array(evt.target.result);
$.ajax({
url: uri,
type: "PUT",
data: requestData,
processData: false,
beforeSend: function(xhr) {
xhr.setRequestHeader('x-ms-blob-type', 'BlockBlob');
xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Length', requestData.length);
success: function (data, status) {
console.log(data);
console.log(status);
bytesUploaded += requestData.length;
var percentComplete = ((parseFloat(bytesUploaded) / parseFloat(selectedFile.size)) * 100).toFixed(2);
$("#fileUploadProgress").text(percentComplete + " %");
uploadFileInBlocks();
error: function(xhr, desc, err) {
console.log(desc);
console.log(err);
Hope this helps.

How do I verify that bookmarks are sync'ed from Desktop Fx29 to Android Fx 29 ?

I have installed Fx 29 on my Android cell phone and on my WinXP/Ubuntu 14.04 Laptop.
I sync from the Desktop to the Mozilla server and , then, from Mozilla servers to my Mobile Android Fx.
The whole process is completely opaque. I.e. I don't see a progress bar or anything that shows the process being conducted.
After that I look for my bookmarks on my Android mobile Fx.... I cannot find them.
What I am doing wrong ?
Cheers,
-ced

Sorry to hear that Seething Sage.
It sems that Sync is not what mozilla.org wants it to be just yet. I have gotten some attention with my 2 or 3 posts on the matter. 2 were definitely a little on the hot side of cool and I regret that, but in the end I was referred to the same 2 or 3 old stickies on how to sync and a pretty video extolling the beauty of the new Sync and ... have gotten exactly 0 solution so far.
I can sync now (after dwiddling endlessly with the thing) between my Lx desktop and my Android mobile, but there is nothin' doin' for Sync between my Win-xp desktop and the server, even though I have the same set up for Fx 29.x under both Win and Lx boots....
I will report on how long it takes to propagate a sync change from one platform to another, so you may have something to comprare your case to. Stay tuned.
For the rest, I remain stumped. Cheers.
