Can I export images from one open catalogue to a closed one, "on the fly?"

If not, is there a plug in that would do that?  I need to select, then combine photos from different catalogues into a new one. 

There's more than one way, but I think dj_paige's way is the best, unless there are some special requirements you've not mentioned yet.
Is this a regular workflow requirement, or just a one-shot (or infrequent) thing?
If it's not something you'll be doing much, then perhaps enough has been said. If you do intend to do it alot, maybe worth further consideration...

  • Since update to 10.6.8 can't export images from powerpoint and also other programs

    Ever since I updated my software to 10.6.8 I can't export images from Powerpoint or from a graphing software GraphPad Prism.  It's really frustrating.  I had no problems at all until this update. Is there any way to revert my version to the old OS 10.6?
    I can't work when I can't put images into illustrator!
    Thanks, AOH

    I just contacted Final Draft and they helped me with it. If you have FD and are going to upgrade an OS, Deactivate Final Draft first then re-activate it once the new OS is installed.

  • Exporting images from LR

    I want to export images from LR. But when I nominate a size - eg. portrait 5x7", images that are in landscape are resized incorrectly.

    If you set a resize-to  7" width AND 7" height, then landscape aspect images will be made 7" wide (with the height correspondingly less, depending on the shape of your current crop), and portrait aspect images will be made 7" high (with the width correspondngly less, depending on the shape of your current crop). In effect you are defining a "sizing box" that all output must fit inside; like that frame for measuring carry-on bags at the airport. You can alternatively set a 7" dimension to be used for the longer side, which amounts to the same thing; although if you also have selected a filesize limit, this particular selection might not work reliably (apparent bug).

  • How can I export songs from my iTunes to a mail program or laptop?

    How can I export songs from my iTunes to a mail program/computer? The songs in question are originals composed by my boyfriend in Garage Band. We have full rights to them, but they import into iTunes like all the other artists songs. His hard drive crashed and I have the only copies. I have no access to my iMac for 2 months while we tour our show and we need them on the tour. We are in dire straights if we can not access these songs and the iPad will not hook up to our equipment. Plus we need to add a track to a promotional video. So how can we access our own music?
    Thanks.

    If they are in the iPad's Music app then the only way to get them out of it is by connecting the iPad to a computer. As they aren't iTunes purchases you won't be able to copy them back to a computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, instead you will need a third-party program on the computer to copy them off - there are some listed half-way down this page which should work: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

    My Images won't open in Photoshop CS5 when I click on Edit in Lightroom - even though this option has been selected?  To edit in Photoshop I have to export image from Lightroom then import into Photoshop.  I have other programmes such as NIK and if I wish to edit in these everything works fine.

    Same here. I've never had trouble with this function before.
    It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
    I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1  Lightroom is version 5.7  Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
    FWIW, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... . Makes me think Photoshop, not Lightroom, is all wacky. I tried dumping PS preferences

  • Can I export my sidecar files to two or more hard drives at the same time from one computer?

    Can I export my sidecar files to two or more hard drives at the same time from one computer?  How do I do this, if it is possible?

    Each image is imported into the LR Catalog from just one stated location on disk. And that is where the sidecar gets written.
    But if you want, outside of LR, you can have a file sync utility replicate all physical changes within those folders on disk, into other corresponding locations on other drives - which hold a copy of all the same images, and a copy of the sidecars too. This might happen continuously, periodically or on demand depending on the particular tool you use... for example, the Dropbox desktop app.
    If you also want to have your LR Catalog replicated, I think this can only be done when LR is not running and using that.

  • Can't MOVE images from one project to another: must not understand

    Greetings,
    I have two questions as a result of aperture not working the way that I have read on forums etc. and am wondering what i am doing wrong
    1) How do I MOVE images from project to project without duplicating masters or versions
    2) how do I delete versions
    All of my files are referenced.
    *1) moving from project to project*
    I have a blue folder called "NEFs." In it, I have a default project where I just dump all of my images called "00 dump." After I dump them, I organize into other projects. So, I do the following:
    • I create a new project called "2008 Thanksgiving" inside the NEFs blue folder making it a sibling to "00 dump"
    • I go back to "00 dump" select all the images that were shot over thanksgiving, and drag to the "2008 thanksgiving" folder. The images transfer fine, but when I go back to "00 dump" I see that the images have NOT actually moved, they are now sitting in both projects. How can this be? I thought that if I move images from project to project then I am actually moving the master, not replicating a version? That leads me to my next dilemma
    *2) how do I delete versions?*
    Now that I have replicated photos in my "2008 Thanksgiving" project, I want to delete them since I see them still sitting in "00 dump." I do the following:
    • select the "2008 Thanksgiving" project
    • select a number of images
    • press command + delete (this is the only way to delete a file as far as I can tell
    • popup comes up explaining that if I delete this file it will delete the master too and the reference file. So, that's exactly what it does.
    Deleting the referenced file is fine for many junk images, but in this case, I just want to delete the copied version that seems to be in two projects now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really love a full understanding of how this structure works.
    -i

    When you drag images and the drop target is an actual little yellow project box (not a folder, and album or anything else) the images move from one project to another, if your drop target is not the actual project but something else within another project all you do is cause the version to show up there, nothing is duplicated.
    To delete a version or versions selected just use command-delete. This gets rid of the actual version not just removes it from the current album view. If it happens to be the last version of that master it will get rid of the master as well.
    Have a look at this:

    The songs on my iPod Video 5th Gen now, were at one time on my computer, but have since been erased. Why can't I export the songs from my iPod back on to my computer? I have this same problem with my other devices (iPad 3rd Gen and iPod Nano 6th Gen). I am really frustrated now, because it seems as if I have to start all over again. This will be a royal pain in the butt! I don't understand why Apple makes this so hard and impossible to do this. Please help, anybody!!

  • I can't place images from Photos into InDesign since updating to Yosemite 10.10.3. Is this an Apple issue or an Adobe one?

    I can't place images from Photos into InDesign since updating to Yosemite 10.10.3. Is this an Apple issue or an Adobe one? It used to be a simple process with iPhoto but not anymore.

    Thanks Steve. I should have mentioned that I’m still using CS6. Wonder if that’s the difference? All I get in the sidebar is Photo Booth which is useless.

  • Exporting images from the Captivate 5 Library

    I am able to export Captivate 4 images to a folder. I am able to export Captivate 5 images to a folder, but they cannot be opened with Fireworks or any other application I've tried. Although the file is a bmp, Fireworks says, "Could not open the file. Unknown file type." Am I the only one experiencing this problem?
    thomas

    Yes. I can right-click and edit a background in Fireworks, but what I'm talking about here is different. Captivate has long offered the option to export images from the library. This has been, and still is easy. The difference is that it doesn't work. The exported files are not readable.

  • Extract / export image from Pages

    I have an image on a Pages document that I want to extract to save as the image only as a jpg.
    I've found the following link to an answer: Extract/ export images from a Pages document?
    But I can't seem to find this File Info option on Pages 5.5.2.
    Any ideas?
    Regards, Mel

    That instruction is for the version of Pages that works, Pages '09.
    And you are not using Mavericks.
    Before Yosemite it used to be possible to copy anything and create a new file in Preview .app just by going command n, but Yosemite now turns the clipboard into a low res 72dpi file, rasterising all text and vector content.
    Like every thing Apple does lately, Yosemite is a huge step backwards and undoes all the good work that went into OS X in the last 15 years.
    If the multiple items are all bitmap images, you can create a blank bitmap file in Preview:
    1. Make a simple screen grab of a white area anywhere in view with command shift 4 > drag over area
    2. Make that screen grab the size you want it to be under Tools in Preview
    3. Open your original images in Preview and Copy/Paste them one by one into the blank file, positioning and resizing as you go.
    4. Saving will freeze the final design as one image.

    Workaround 2 :
    If images are required in the final Excel document, the user would need to recreate those image links manually in Excel.

  • Can I export photos from iphoto to lightroom?

    can I export photos from iphoto to lightroom?

    Not very knowledgeable on iPhoto are we?
    The problem with iPhoto is it copies and or moves all your photo into it's database structure which is just a pain
    It moves nothing. It can copy, or reference the images.
    Even Picasa is better then iPhoto as it actually displays RAW images.
    As Keith says, iPhoto work with every format that the OS supports - in other words all the same ones as Aperture.
    iPhoto doesn't even support Adobe DNG format.
    Going for 0/3 ?
    As for migrating from iPhoto to Lightroom:  Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.

  • How can i import contacts from another AIM account to this new one

    If you reference my last ichat question, you will see that I have had serious problems and had to create a new account.
    How can I import contacts from another AIM account to this new one??

    Hi,
    Use AIM for Mac and use the Export and Import features.
    Other than that it is a question on making sure every Single Buddy has more than just their Screen name in the IChat Address Card so it is added to the Address Book and dragging them back from there
