  • I can't move photos from iPhoto to my secondary hard drive or to a burn folder.  I have never had a problem with this before.  This is something new.   They will not drop into either folder.  Nothing happens.

    I can't move photos from iPhoto to my secondary hard drive or to a burn folder.  I have never had a problem with this before.  This is something new.   They will not drop into either folder.  Nothing happens. 
    I checked my secondary harddrive and there is plenty of memory.
    I emptied my burn folder but the photos still will not drop into it.
    I created a new burn folder, no luck with this either.
    230 photos is the maximum size of the events I am trying to move from iPhoto to save elsewhere.
    I have shut down and restarted my computer.   No change. The photos still will not drop out of iPhoto.
    My Mac Computer Storage shows that I have 62.2GB free out of 249.2GB (movies, photos and contacts taking up the most space)
    My Lacie External Harddrive (2TB capacity) shows that I have 1.79TB available.  It shows that 207,729,520,640 bytes (207.73 GB on disk) are used.
    I have never had this problem before.  It is usually very easy to move my photos from iPhoto.
    I am not a computer expert (I work in surgery so don't have a need for lots of computer knowledge) so please explain in simple terms.  
    Thank you so much for any help you can provide.
    I really appreciate it.

    YES Terence!  Thank you. Exporting allowed me to move my photos from iPhoto into the Burn Folder on my desktop.   But that doesn't explain why I'm having to go that route now.   Have I done something (accidentally changed some setting) on my computer that will not allow me to just click and drag anymore?   I really liked the convenience of the click and drag option. 
    I don't have the time tonight to export and burn a lot of CD/DVDs.  I'll try that tomorrow and make sure my photos are moving properly.  I also need to export photos to my external hard drive to make sure that route is working. 
    Wouldn't you know that my Apple Care Plan runs out this Wednesday?!  I need to make sure everything is working properly before that expires. 
    Thank you so much for your help.   I really, really appreciate it.

  • How can I move photos from iPhoto to Finder

    How can I move photos from iPhoto to Finder?

    It is better to export (file menu ==> export) since when you export you control exactly what you get - see the user tip on exporting for details
    When you drag and drop you get the current preview with limited Metadata

  • Can you move photos from iphoto to a cd-r disc

    Can you move photos from iphoto onto a blank CD-R disc? If so, how?

    Take the photos you want to burn from iPhoto and put them in a folder on your desktop. Then, insert a blank CD and drag the photos onto the CD icon. Wait for them to finish uploading onto the disk and eject it. Insert it again just to see if this works; double click on the CD icon and ypu should see the same folder, with all of your photos in it. Hope this helps.

  • Hi, I can't email photos from iphoto as the email server doesn't recognise my password / username combination... any ideas how i fix this?

    Hi, I can't email photos from iphoto as the email server doesn't recognise my password / username combination... any ideas how / where i fix this?

    Go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete the email account there.  Then add it back again. 
    If that fails you can set Mail at the email client for iPhoto in iPhoto's General preference pane. Mail is more reliable, gives you a sent copy and has better access to your contacts. It also has photo templates if you need them.  They are in the stationary selection menu.

  • Hi: How do I move photos from iphoto to the "pictures" file?

    Hi: How do I move photos from iphoto into the Pictures file? I just purchased a digital camera and the software is only available for photos in the pictures file. Thanks.

    What camera and software is it and why do you want to use it instead of iPhoto? Is this software that came with the camera?  You don't need to use it as iPhoto is all you need. That software is not compatible with iPhoto so you would have to abandon iPhoto if you want to use the camera's software.

  • How can I move photos from iphoto to external hard drive?

    My internal is full and I'm getting those messages to clean up the drive.  I've determined that my photos need to leave!  Can I move photos from my Air to the hard drive external and still view them?
    Thanks

    Make sure the external drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and is connected with a wired connection, quit iPhoto, drag the iPhoto library to the EHD intact as a single entity and launch iPhoto while depressing to option key. Use the resulting select library window to select the new location. Be sure the EHD is available prior to launching iPhoto

  • How do you transfer photos from iPhoto on your Mac to your iPhone?

    Trying to figure out how to get photos from iphoto on my mac to my iphone

    Hook your phone up to your computer and sync it in iTunes. Before doing the sync, check the Photo tab for your device, and make sure you have selected what photos you want to download. You can do this by Event or Album or a combination of both. Check the appropriate boxes on the Photos tab for what you want to do, and then Sync.
    Also, when you first hook up your phone, iPhoto may open automatically to import any photos on your phone that are not yet imported to iPhoto. You can do that first, then go to iTunes to sync the device.
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • How can I transfer files from iPhoto  on my mac to my iPhone?

    Trying to do the reverse of what's normal.  Thx.

    Connect your phone to iTunes, go to the Photos tab of you sync settings, check Sync Photos from iPhoto, select which photos you want to sync to your phone, sync.  These photos will appear on your phone it Photo Library (which contains all the actual photos) as well as within the individual folders you chose to sync to your phone (which contain links to selected photos in Photo Library, not duplicate photos).

  • Can I move photos from Google to the Camera Roll on my iPad?

    Just bought my first iPad, I would like to import photos from Google+ and put them into albums and the camera roll...is this possible?

    If you are using the Google+ App, you just need to tap on the settings "cog" icon at the top left corner of the opened pciture, and then tap on download.
    This will put the image in your camera roll.

  • HT201317 How do I move photos from iPhoto to the iCloud?

    I just want to get some pictures off of my laptop and I want to ensure that they are in a safe space.  iCloud is different than Photo Stream right?  Is there a way to just store the photos in iCloud?  I don't want to lose the photos in 30 days, if I put them in Photo Stream.
    Thank you!

    iCloud can not do what you want.
    Try a service like DropBox
    You can get 2GB of free storage with the option to purchase more. Your photos will be stored in the cloud and will be available to your internet connected devices.

  • Can i move photos from itv back to mac

    I recently lost all my photos stored in iphoto, this is a new computer to me so I didn't have too much but still quit a bit. I am a new Mac person and am finding it difficult to switch from PC to Mac but I am trying. I've read some of the boards and think it may not be possible but I wanted to ask anyway. These pics still appear on itv...can i move them back to the MAC??? if so...can you please tell me how...keep in mind I am new to this MAC world.

    These pics still appear on itv...can i move them back to the MAC?
    Not without removing the drive or hacking it, both of which void the warranty.

  • How do I transfer a photo from iPhoto or the Desktop onto my Samsung phone GT S5830i ?

    Can anyone please tell me how I can transfer a photo from iPhoto or the Desktop onto my Samsung Galaxy Ace GT S5830i phone ? The phone won't connect to Kies.  I've uninstalled Kies.  I've tried with Bluetooth and USB cable; all to no avail. I'm running Mavericks on a Mac.  Many thanks in anticipation,  Derek.

    You can export the image from iPhoto to the desktop
    File -> Export
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
    Unfortunately, the rest of your query - i.e. - getting it from the desktop to that phone is one more for a Samsung forum.
