Can't import från iPhoto to Elements Organizer

I want to import my large iPhoto (v9.5.1) archive into my Adobe Elements Organizer (v12.1). I need to get the tags for thousands of photos intact with the transfer.
There is an automatic function for this in Organizer, but when I use it, only a few photos from iCloud actually get imported. It may have something to do with my having set up iPhoto to leave my photos in their original folders and not import the photos themselves into the database.
Is there any way to work around this, to get my photos into Organizer with all their meta-information intact?

Hi Tonyswiss
This is common with all new camera models; not just Canon. Manufacturers continually improve their processors and the way they perform with the sensor in handling and creating images. It takes time for Adobe to catch up so the update of ACR will always lag.
Dual DIGIC 4 processors are used in the EOS 7D and EOS 1D Mk IV. ACR support is provided in version 5.6

Can't import photos from iPhoto to Elements 9 Organizer

I am running Elements 9 Organizer on my MacBook Pro. When I perform the command File/Get photos and videos/from iPhoto, I get the error message, "There is no media to import from iPhoto." In fact I have thousands of photos in iPhoto that I would like to import to Organizer so that I can edit them in Elements 9.
I also cannot edit photos in Elements by setting it as the default editor in iPhoto. When I do this, it opens Elements but does not open the photo from iPhoto.

When I do this, it opens Elements but does not open the photo from iPhoto.
That usually means you have chosen the wrong file as your external editor. In PSE 9, you want this one. The other is an alias to the welcome screen and choosing that one causes the behavior you've described:

Can't import photos from iPhoto or aperture - the me that files are not supported

Export versions to the desktop or create new folders in finder then import into Organizer using:

--First thing to know and remember is this...Do not drag any images, folder of images into the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Images have to be imported into iPhoto within the application. Do not scan images and save them into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Save them to another location such as the Pictures folder or even the desktop. You can then import them into iPhoto.
--You have a folder of images on your hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Drag the folder of images into an open iPhoto Library window and the folder of photos will be copied into the library, resulting in a new roll with the name of the folder. You now have two copies of those photos, the ones in iPhoto's database and the ones on your desktop. You can keep the ones on your desktop that you just imported as backup or you can delete that folder.
-- you scan a picture/pictures and save it in a folder. You cannot scan directly into iPhoto or the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder.
You want all your photos in iPhoto so you import them into iPhoto.
Now you have two copies of that picture/pictures, so you can delete the originals that were in the scanned folder and keep the one/ones that were imported into iPhoto.
-- You download pictures from your camera into iPhoto.
There is now one copy of each of the pictures.
You want to change something about a picture you imported, such as
cropping it or changing the size, or changing the orientation.
Once you do that to a picture, you now have two copies of the picture
in iPhoto, the original and the edited one. The edited one will be in the library organize view. The original is packed away in an Original folder in your iPhoto Library folder under the date of the roll. You can always revert to the original by control clicking on the photo and choose "revert to orginal" You will not have this choice if you used iPhoto Diet to get rid of the Originals.
(a quick note on cropping within iPhoto...when you are in edit mode, you automatically will be in the crop mode with cross hairs to highlight the crop area. To finish cropping you must click the crop button and then go back to library view and your cropped picture will be there.
3.You want to use Photoshop or another graphic program to edit a picture in your iPhoto library.
You can open up prefs for iPhoto and choose "when double clicking on
photo ..do" choose "other" and select Photoshop. Now you can edit all
pictures in your iPhoto library in PhotoShop by double clicking. If you save the photo with the same name and as a flattened file it will be saved right into iPhoto and you will see the changes. If you don't want to save it into iPhoto then do a "save as" and save to the desktop. You will then have the original photo still in iPhoto and your new edited photo on the desktop.
Or, with iPhoto open, you can drag a picture from the library window
to your desktop (you see a + sign on the pic you are dragging). You now
have two of the same picture, one in the iPhoto library and one on your desktop. You can open up the one on your desktop in any graphic program and work on it. The one in iPhoto stays the same. You can also share/export the picture/pictures to your desktop or folder to work on them or do batch processing, etc. You will still have the originals in your iPhoto Library.
Or, you can open up the ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/folders and option drag any
picture out of the folder to your desktop. Notice that you will see a plus sign while dragging the photo. This is copying the file to your desktop
I would advise anyone not to do this as they might forget to use the option key and drag the photo out. Next time you open iPhoto the photo will be missing.

Can't import video from iPhoto or memory card

I just upgraded to iLife'11 but now I can't seem to import my videos from iPhoto. Before, I could download stills and videos to iPhoto (via card reader) and iMovie would automatically import them. Now I can still import video into iPhoto but then can't figure out how to move them into iMovie. Any suggestions?

I get a message saying "the file is and unrecognized format."
It's just a jpeg!!!!
What is the color profile?
Will they open in preview?

How can i import photos from iphoto 9.2.3 to 9.6

I am migrating from a 2009 ibook to a Macbook pro 13.3 retina. How can can I import photos from iPhoto 9.2.3 library to the 9.6 iPhoto.
I am running 10.6.8 snow leopard on the ibook which has 4Gb of memory.
I tried but it just loaded icons to the 9.6 library.
I am reluctant to go to Yosimite on the ibook and it seems this would not solve it anyway.

You don't import one library to another. Just copy the library from the iBook to the Pictures folder on shout new MacBook Pro. If you have another library already on the MBP rename it so you don't overwrite it with the old library.
Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the newly copied library and let iPhoto convert it to the new version.
Do you have photos in the library on the new MacBook Pro that you want to combine with the older library?

How to access iPhoto images for use in Photoshop
1. In the Finder, navigate to Users > [user name} > Pictures > iPhoto Library.
2. Control-click the iPhoto Library file and choose Show Package Contents.
3. A Finder window opens that shows the contents. The Masters folder (or called Originals folder) contains all of the photographs that are in iPhoto.
Photoshop cannot access this folder, but if you make a duplicate of the folder, the dupe will be accessible -- so:
4. Control-click the folder named Masters (or Originals) and choose Duplicate.
5, Drag the duplicate folder which is named "Masters copy" or “Originals copy” from the iPhoto Library Finder window to the Desktop.
6. Open images in Photoshop from file on desktop.
7 Rename the folder and move it elsewhere (probably to the Pictures folder), if desired.

How can I import images from iphoto with the albums and folders?

How can I import images from iphoto without losing the albums and folders I already created?

In Organizer, you can choose File>get Photos and Videos>From iPhoto.
Importing from iPhoto'09: If in iPhoto, you organize your media using photo references, that is, the media actually does not reside inside iPhoto library package, and are referenced through original locations, Organizer does not create new copies of those media and just refer to the original location. but if your iPhoto media reside inside iPhoto library, Organizer creates a copy all media in your pictures folder, also imports albums and tags and other metadata.
Importing from iPhoto'011: In this case, Organizer always creates a copy of your photos in your pictures folder which resides inside iPohto package. It does not import the albums and other metadata like star rating, caption etc.
Hope this information helps!

Can't import pictures to iPhoto.

Can't import pictures to iPhoto. It says I already am, but I'm not.

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.

Can't import photos to iPhoto

I finished importing photos from my camera's compact flash drive (using a fuji card reader) but pulled the USB out before ejecting. Now I can't import pics to iPhoto. When I view pics in IPhoto they all now have a narrow black strip along each of the longer edges. Error msg says file is in unrecognized format, though the file name still has .jpg suffix.
I've tried using a different compact flash drive, I've tried plugging the camera in direct to my Mac instead of using the card reader, and I've tried reinstalling the camera software - all with no effect.
My camera is a Canon EOS Digital Rebel (around 2003)
Can anyone help ?

I reformatted the card in my camera, then used the reader again and get the message "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer"
Then I reformatted it one more time, took another photo, and tried reading it direct from the camera. Now I can view the image using iPhoto, but with the black strips along the edges. When I try importing it I get the mesage saying the file is in an unrecognized format.

I took a 15 minute video clip on my phone and now I can't import it into iphoto. I've been able to import clips to iphoto in the past. How do I fix this? How can I get it imported onto my MacBook and ultimately iMovie?

Maybe try one of the WiFi transfer Apps? There are several to choose from. I use Photosynch quite often to send photos and videos between my computer(s), my iPhone, and iPad.

I can't import my old iPhoto library into 9.51 HELP!!!

I purchased iphoto 9.51 from the app store but it can't import my old iPhoto Library ..please help as it looks like I've lost all my photos..there seems to be no postings on this topic

First of all - you need to open your old iPhoto Library in iPhoto 9.5.1, not to import it.
Which version of iPhoto created your old library? If it was iPhoto '08, version 7.x.y or earlier, then you need first to run the iPhoto Library Upgrader to prepare the library, see this link: iPhoto '11: About the Library Upgrader
If it was a more recent version, simply launch iPhoto with the option-key held down and select your old iPhoto library, when prompted, which library to open.
If you have been trying to open iPhoto this way, what happens? Do you get an error message? Which error message exactly?

One thing to point out, if you are doing this with the trial. While it is 100% (nothing crippled, or omitted), the trial WILL put a watermark on the finished Project. If you are doing this for work, be aware of that watermark. This http://forums.adobe.com/thread/433730?tstart=0 will give you some tips and background.
Good luck, and I do not want you to be surprised and mad, when you get that watermark.

Can I import a menu from Premiere elements 7(the Popcorn menu) into Encore CS4?

Can I import a menu from Premiere elements 7(the Popcorn menu) into Encore CS4?
If so how do I accomplish this act?
Are their additional menus available for Encore CS4?

The Menus in PrE are in Menu Sets. Each set is a Main Menu and a Scene Selection Menu. As PrE does the authoring semi-automatically, there are many "extras" in those PSD's, in the Button Layer Sets. All you have to do is make a Copy of your two Menus into a separate folder, so that you do not worry about messing up your Menu Sets in PrE. I'd do this in a new sub-folder in the Encore Library folder hierarchy. Then, Open each of these two Menus in PS. Go in and clean out all of the other languages for the Text and Button Text. Match the Layer Set/Button Layer Set names to those naming conventions in the Encore Library Menus, as you will not be getting any semi-automation. Where you do not need, say a Next Button, just eliminate that Button's Layer Set. Remember, PrE will do this semi-automatically, plus will give you the number of Scene Selection Menus, that your Project calls for - Encore will not. You must count the Scenes, divide by the number of Buttons on that Scene Selection Menu, and do Copies of that Menu, to accommodate what you require.
As for Encore, it comes with a full compliment of Menus, Buttons, and other Assets, like EM files (Templates), with Motion and Audio Assets. All can be completely customized in PS. Note: in PSElements, I do not believe that you can create Layer Sets, so that will be a limitation. The full PS has no limitations, with the single exception that to change Button Sub-picture Highlight colors, this must be done in Encore's Menu Editor, unless it's been added to PS CS5.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - remember, work on Copies of the two Menus in the PrE Menu Set, and NOT on the originals, or you will be doing a Repair Install to get those back.

Can't see several thumbnails in photoshop elements organizer grid

After opening the image in the editor it appears in the Organizer grid.
