Automatic upload/view of photos

I was at a professional photo shoot and everytime the photographer shot a pic with his digital camera, the image automatically uploaded to the Powerbook and displayed full screen. The camera was hard-wired to the Powerbook although I don't know if there was any intermediary device. Anyone know how that's done?

It would have been via another application, usually by the camera manufacturer. It's called 'tethered operation'
Canon - look on the CD for Canon RemoteCapture. On newer models, I thing it's been rolled into FileViewer.
Nikon - this is a function of Nikon Capture, which only comes as a demo- you have to purchase it separately.
Medium-format - most older MF backs can only be used when plugged in, as they have no built-in storage. Newer ones can be used tethered or free.
Some newer consumer cameras can be used tethered via Image Capture, but I've never had a chance to try this.
To get the image into Aperture you can set up a hot folder that will import any new images.

  • Automatic upload feature in Photo Stream

    I am confused with the 'Automatic Upload' feature in photo stream within iPhoto.  Hopefully you can help.
    The way I understand this feature is if I import a photo within iPhoto and the automatic upload feature is enabled, it will automatically put the imported photo into the photo stream such that it will be on all my ios devices.  Now this where it gets confusing.  In iPhoto I do not see the photo in my photostream event folder.  I do see it in photo stream on ios devices)iphone and iPad).  In iPhoto the photo is currently in the 'Import' folder.  So where does the photo in the import go when I do another import.  And...when photo stream d/l's pictures to monthstream folder, will there now be 2 copies of that same picture in iPhoto.
    I hope this is clear and you understand what I am trying to decipher.

    Thanks for answering.
    Cause I have some photos want to do some post processing in ipad via some tools like snapspeed.
    It happended to be the recently imported photos. So my work flow  is to get the photo from photostream in ipad.
    After finishing post processing, it automatically creates a new  photo in photostream (which I love that).
    And I can easily get the photo in  my iMac via photo stream.
    That's why I found the resolution changed, cause at first I even want to replace my original one.
    So I think if I want preserver the resolution, maybe I can use your way.
    Thanks agiain.

  • Automatic upload photostream, editing photos

    Do I need to turn off automatic upload to photostream while I import and edit photos in iphoto, then turn it back on to avoid getting unedited versions of these photos in the photostream?

    Yes, with automatic upload enabled, the photos will be uploaded to the photo stream as soon as you import them. If you want more control, add them manually to the photo stream.

  • Hi peeps, I recently had my iPad Air replaced and it automatically uploaded all my photos back from iCloud on to my iPad, taking up an enormous amount of storage. How can I delete them from my iPad, but keep them on my desktop?

  • When I connect my iPad to my PC my pictures don't automaticly upload since I updated iTunes

    do you have a fix for this please?.

    You are talking about the photo stream photos. Take a look at this.
    My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    When do photos upload to My Photo Stream?
    When you turn on My Photo Stream on your devices, all new photos you take or import to those devices will automatically upload.
    iOS devices: New photos that you take automatically upload to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and connect to Wi-Fi. My Photo Stream doesn't push photos over cellular connections.
    Macs: Any new photos you import to iPhoto or Aperture automatically upload when you connect to Wi-Fi or Ethernet. Or you can change your iPhoto or Aperture preferences so that only photos you manually add to My Photo Stream upload.
    PC with iCloud for Windows 4.0 (or iCloud Control Panel 3.1): Open a Windows Explorer window and, under Favorites, select iCloud Photos. Open My Photo Stream. Click the Add photos button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.

  • Auto upload to My Photo Stream

    Is it possible to switch off the automatic upload of all photos taken on my iPhone to My Photo Stream?
    I would still like to use the My Photo Stream function, but manually select the photos to upload.
    It might take 2 or 3 goes to get the photo I want (kids blinking, blurred image etc). Also, sometimes I take a photo as a note to remember something - book title, concert date etc.
    These "notes" don't need to go to my Photo Stream, and nor do the blurred/blinking photos.

    see if the FAQs or trouble shooting tips here help - http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/photo-stream/

  • HT201317 My photos from my iphone won't upload to my photo stream on my mac.

    I turned on iCloud on both devices and it will only upload pictures to my phone from my mac's photo stream, but when I take a picture on my phone, it wont upload to my Mac, even when I have WiFi. Please Help.

    Have you left the camera app? Upload to photo stream should start, when you leave the camera app.
    And when your iPhone is fully charged. The phone will not upload, if the battery has less than 20% left. Then the ipload willwait, unitl the phone is charged.
    On an iOS device, new photos you take will be automatically uploaded to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and are connected to Wi-Fi. Note: My Photo Stream does not push photos over cellular connections.

  • Automatic uploading with Share Online

    Does Share Online allow automatically uploading all your photos? I have half a notion that I considered using such a setting a while ago, and think that it might be enabled, but I can't actually find such an option anywhere. Am I mad?
    Help I'm trapped in a sig factory.

    Hi tjone71, have you solved the problem? Is it still actual?
    Does anyone else have the similar problem?

  • Phone photos not automatically uploading to my pc

    First let me say that photos taken on my and my wife's iPhone 4 have been automatically uploading to my Windows 7 PC for a couple of years.  I depend on the function to get all of our photos off the phones and into our family album.
    Just a few days ago I noticed that no new photos were appearing in the My Picture/My Photostream folder.  After looking around some and finding nothing that seemed out of order I thought it might be related to the only change that I'm aware of and that's the recent iOS7 updates.
    Using the procedure/sequence outlined on Apple's support page I removed all of the apply software, including iCloud, rebooted and then reinstalled everything.  During the installation I changed the new folder default to point to the old Photo Stream folder that it had previously been using.  Still, no photos, old or new, would upload.  They were showing up in the Photo Stream album on the iPhone, just not uploading to the PC.
    I saw a post that said they had what sounded like the same problem and they fixed it by removing/reinstalling iCloud and accepting the default folders.  I did that and it created a new folder called My Pictures/iCloud with a My Photo Stream sub-folder along with the shared photo streams that we use in our family.  It also created a system folder that shows up in My Computer called iCloud Photos that has thumbnails for My Photo Stream, Activity (a folder that I never created) and the shared family folder Family.  The thumbnail for My Photo Stream shows a couple of pictures that were a couple of the ones that last uploaded.  However, when I open the folder it has nothing in it.  When I click on either Activity or Family it appears to freeze but after a minute or so it will show boxes with a small x in the upper left corner.  Down the right hand side are vertically stacked picture thumbnails for the pictures that I "Liked" on my iPhone.  When I click on Info I see that I was invited to share the folder follwed by another line showing that I have subscribed to the folder.
    The control panel iCloud app looks fine -- like I think it always has.
    I'm at a complete loss.  I really want the automatic upload to work again but I don't have a clue what to try next.
    I've seen a lot of posts from folks having problems with this since upgrading to iOS7 but I haven't seen any "aha" revelations and/or solutions.
    Anybody know how I can get this puppy working again?
    Thanks in advance,
    Howard

    Darn, that didn't fix it for long.
    I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues.  Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
    But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem.  …without even a re-boot.
    Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
    Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive.  Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab.  Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
    Open the Users folder.
    Open your user folder
    Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
    Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
    Open the Installer Cache folder
    In Details view sort on Name
    Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
    Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
    When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco.  The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”.  Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
    I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
    For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear.  Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
    Good luck…

  • HT201060 Is there a way to be selective about which photos are automatically uploaded to the Family Sharing photo album?

    Family Sharing is set up, and "My Photo Stream" and "iCloud Photo Sharing" features are enabled on all devices.  However, I would like to limit which photos are shared in the Family Sharing photo album.  Here are two scenarios:
    I'm shopping for a gift for my daughter at the store, and I see the item I think she'll like.  In Messages I want to snap a photo to send to my wife to get her buy-in (authorization), but when I do this, the photo is also automatically uploaded to the Family Sharing album, and my daughter can see it on her iPod Touch until I delete it from iCloud.
    On her iPod Touch, my daughter browses images of kittens and cats, cats and kittens (she's 10), and saves many of them to her camera roll to view later.  In turn, our Family Sharing photo album is full of random pictures of kittens.
    Perhaps all I need to do is turn off "My Photo Stream", to prevent all photos being uploaded to all devices automatically?  And in the event I want to share a photo or an event/moment, I can create a Photo Stream on the spot...?

    Probably the best solution is to put your daughter on her own iCloud ID (but under your name since she's under-aged).  She can continue to use your ID for iTunes store purchases. If you set her up with a separate iCloud ID, then her photo activity and yours will remain separate.
    The Family Sharing feature may not be relevant or helpful in this scenario -- as I understand it, Family Sharing is for the sharing of purchases, not iCloud, and only in situations when family members have separate IDs for purchases but want to also share the purchases from a "central ID" (e.g. Parent's ID)

  • TS3989 I have automatic upload etc. turned on in my iCloud and Photostream but after having just uploaded new photos from my camera to my MacBook Pro, none are getting into. My Photostream, either on my iPad, iPhones or Apple TV. Any suggestions?

    I have automatic upload etc.  activated in Photo Stream.  I just uploaded new photos from my camera to my MacBook Pro, but nothing is sowing up on my iPhones my iMacs iPad or on Apple TV.  Does anyone have. Any suggestions as to what I can. Do?  I am currently on permahold with. apple Help.
    THANKS!

    My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
    Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
    And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
    Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    or http://www.apple.com/contact/
    We are just end users here helping other end users.
    Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
    Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
    Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
    Good luck!

  • TS3989 I can't view the photos in photo stream. When i click on the photo stream, automatically it goes back to home. Why is this happening? How do i resolve?

    I can't view the photos in photo stream. When i click on the photo stream, automatically it goes back to home. Why is this happening? How do i resolve?

    If older photos are missing it may be because photo stream photos are only held in iCloud for 30 days.  After that they are removed from iCloud but will remain (up to 1000 photos) on your device until deleted.  Also, only photos taken after enabling photo stream are added to your photo stream, and only when the camera is closed, your device is connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining.
    To transfer the missing photos you can either create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself to it (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), import the photos to your computer and sync them to your iPad, or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your iPad over wifi.

  • 1520 reframed photos not automatically uploading.

    I just got a 1520 and was previously using the 1020.  Obviously the camera is a bit different.  But with the 1520 if I take a picture it is automatically backed up to OneDrive (per my settings - which are for highest quality backup over wifi).  That works fine.   But if I then select that picture and zoom in/reframe it and save it, the modified photo is not automatically backed up.  I either have to share it or pull it manually via USB connection to my PC.  
    Is this by design?  Or am I doing something wrong?
    Also the reframed picture is of much lower resolution  (file size original:  5MB; reframed 400K).  Is that also by design on the 1520?
    Thanks.

    Hi, classicrokr. We tried this on our end.
    Pictures taken from the Nokia Lumia 1520 are automatically backed up to OneDrive with the same settings. After re-framing the pictures and saving them, they are also automatically uploaded/backed up to OneDrive.
    Original pictures and the reframed ones have almost the same size and quality. However, the quality and size may depend on the capture mode that you have selected.

  • Hello, I recently uploaded about 250 photos from my phone onto iPhoto. However, when I go to view them, they have already been auto-cropped. It seems I must click "Edit," and then "Crop," and then expand the box to the fullest size. Any suggestions?

    @SuperMan
    I noticed this as well when navigating through the photo gallery on my iPhone. 
    If you (and he) are asking about iPhone operation then you are in the wrong place - this is the iPhoto for Mac forum - there are forums for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch as well as iPhoto for IOS -
    I do not see any cropping in iPhoto on the Mac for either camera or iPhone photos (I use PhotoStream with auto import to get my iPhone photos to iPhoto on my Mac) - and given the way iPhoto works it is really not possible to have auto-cropping - the only thing that I see even close to that is that when you select edit ==> drop the default crop is slightly smaller than the photo - but unless you accept that nothing is changed and the photo is exactly as imported
