Download fb photo to iPhoto

Hi guys,
is it possible to download all facebook photo at once to iphoto? Is there any plugin, app, etc that may do this task?
Regards,
Filippo

Did you set up our MMe gallery so as to be able to download the photos as shown here:
Click to view full size
If so then there should be a link in the gallery to download the files and the files will be downloaded with their file names intact.
Click to view full size
Inside the gallery folder will be multiple subfolders, one for each photo. In each of those subfolders will be two image files, large.jpg and web.jpg. The large.jpg file will be the file you want. But all of the files are titled large so you won't know what their original file name is if you didn't set the gallery up to download the file.
If you *didn't setup the gallery to download* the photos you will be out of luck. The only image file for each photo will be one titled web.jpg and will be a maximum of 1024 x 768. I did a test with a couple of 4000 x 3000 files and 1024 x768 was what was available. The problem with this is that all of the photos will be titled web.jpg. The folder they are in will have the file name leaving you with the job of renaming all of the web.jpg files to their respective original file names.

Yes - you need a min of 10 GB just to operate - with just 1 you certainly can lose photos and other critical things - you need to make space immediately - probably by moving your iPhoto library to a volume formatted Mac OS extended -
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

If i download my photos into iPhoto does that use up more hard drive space?

If I download my photos into iPhoto does that use up more hard drive space on my mac?

iPhoto and Lightroom are similar apps - although LR is a far more capable app - and that the price it should be, of course. But the two apps are similar in that they both offer
Photo Management
Non-Destructive Processing
So, essentially, they both play the same part in the workflow.
The procedure would be to
Download the images from the camera into the Photo Manager (regardless of which one you choose)
Review and select in the Manager
Trash the unwanted with the Manager
Process the images - that is, in most cases edit them.
It is at this point - and only this point - that Photoshop might come into play. Both of these apps can act as a 'front-end' for Photoshop - after all, they're the Managers. But in truth, if you're using Lightroom then you very likely do not need Photoshop at all, and for anything that does require layers you can use one of the many - much less expensive - alternatives. But I think the common experience is that with Lightroom (like Aperture) the requirement for the sledgehammer that is Photoshop really fades away.
So pick one horse and ride it. Choose between LR and iPhoto. Use it like it's intended. Don't get involved in other necessary apps. Don't review before bringing the photo into the manager - that's what the manager is for.

Ive downloaded my photos into iphoto and cannot find them. I inadvertantly deleted photos from my camera. Any chance to recover or find them?

Ive downloaded my photos into iphoto from my Canon G10 and cannot find them. I inadvertantly deleted photos from my camera. Any chance to recover or find them?

Do they show in "last import" or in photos view?
You give us nothing to go on so we can only make really wild guesses
you may be able to recover them on the camera card using software like media recover

How can I download my photos from iphoto to the external hard disk? thanks!

How can I download my photos from iphoto to the external hard disk? thanks!

This is our resident iPhoto guru, Terence Devlin's, advice:
You can move your iPhoto Library to an external disk or new Mac:
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

I just purchased elements 13 and downloaded my photos from iPhoto (I have a new iMac) and

when I click on a photo it says it is a missing file and can't find it. any solution to this problem?

skyjacob
If all you are seeing is "Elements 13", please take another look. The program is designated Photoshop Elements 13 or Premiere Elements 13. Essentially the former is for photo editing and the latter is for video editing.
What you are aiming at is probably the Elements Organizer 13 which comes with these programs as I have described the situation in my post numbered 2. But, I cannot be sure that you are not trying to get photos from iPhotos by using Premiere Elements 13 Editor instead, with Add Media/"Photos from cameras or devices"/Adobe Premiere Elements - Photo Downloader".
And, if you do not have Premiere Elements in the first place, that possibility is out of consideration.
The answers will be in the details. And the troubleshooting rules in or out factors involved which are part of the problem description that you supply.

I cannot download new photos to iPhoto because I have only limited space left in iPhoto. That is the message each time when I want to download.

After I transferred most of my photos and videos to an external hard drive and afterward to the trash can, that I have emtied, I still get the same message from iPhoto that I have only limites space left. What should I do? I read that the photos are being stored still on the computer's hard drive ( I have never used Time Machine) but I cannot find them? I would like to know where they are being stored so I could delete them. I would appreciate your comments on this issue.

How big is your HD? How much free space on it?
You delete photos from iPhoto via the iPhoto Window.

I downloaded my photos into iPhoto, now they are gone. Where did they go?, I downloaded my photos into iPhoto, now they are gone. Where did they go?

I dowloaded pictures from my camera card onto my computer like I've done dozens of time before.
IPhoto immediately opens.
I imported them.
I put them into an album.
I even began editing them.
While I was editing.....
i got the dreaded circle of color.
Error message that iphoto stopped working, I clicked report.
And, now my photos in that last download are gone.
They aren't in my last download folder.
They aren't on my card. I of course, presssed delete when it asked if I wanted to save them.
They aren't in my trash.
I still see the album I created. It just is now empty
Please, please help.
I'm working on a MacBook Pro.
Purchased in October 2012
Os X Version 10.8.5
Currently in the hallway at my daughter basketball tournament trying not to cry. I know that there are bigger problems in the world than me losing 500 pictures. But, I'd really like them back.
Please.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

How to download internet photos to iphoto?

How do I download photos from the internet to iphotos?

It completely depends on the copyright protections in place on that particular site and/or the photo(s); if they are not protected, there should be instructions on how to download. If they are, you probably can't and, if there was a way, we are not allowed to discuss that per the terms of use here:

I have downloaded RAW photos into IPhoto but they show up as JPEG, please help

Why do my RAW photos show up as JPEG when I download to IPhoto 11?

Betty,
do you have a camera with supported raw format? What is your MacOS X version?

And where exactly do you see your raw files as jpeg? When exporting? After editing?

Transferring RAW photos to Iphoto

I know this has been asked a lot before, but there's an ocean of variations of answers out there. I can't make any sense out of it so I'm hoping somebody can give me a fundamental answer without overwhelming me with hi-tech stuff.
I have a Canon EOS Rebel T2i. It comes with their software for downloading and importing the photos but it won't send them to Iphoto. I tried to download the photos using Iphoto. I noticed they preview them first. However, these photos are very large files (RAW in camera). I tested one photo in a transfer to Iphoto and it is a .jpeg but it is 5.5MB too. That seems too large to store in Iphoto, and if I download all 250 photos I will surely fiill my HD space on my computer.
Isn't there a simple way to download these pictures as smaller files to Iphoto? Or do I have to download a few at a time and resize them one by one? If that is the case, then some "hi-tech" thinker out there is not so bright. I just want to download my family photos to Iphoto and share them but 5.5mb is too big to send out.

When iPhoto imports a RAW file it creates a JPEG preview file for iPhoto to use to display in thumbnails, slideshows, etc. RAW files are just sensor dumps from the camera's image sensor and need to be processed before they can be viewed. That's what the preview files are for. When you edit a RAW file the edit must be saved as a new, jpeg or tiff file leaving the RAW file untouched.
To reduce the file size for sharing export the files out of iPhoto via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option. Select Kind = JPEG. The file size is determined by the Quality setting (i.e. JPEG compression). Large is usually only a big smaller than the original file. Medium is about 40% smaller. I'm referring to the file size here and not the image size. The image size will remain the same size in pixels as the original.
If you want to reduce the pixel dimension of the exported photos set the Size option to the maximum dimension (width or length) you want.

Duplicating large size (7 MB) photos in IPhoto 08

I am using IPhoto 08 with Leopard OS. I have a new camera and when I download 7MB photos to IPhoto and duplicate the photo, IPhoto reduces the size of the duplicated photo to about half (3.9 MB in this case).
When I download and dublicate photos of 4 MB, the size of the duplicated photo remains the same as the original.

What size is the original photo in the info pane of iPhoto?
My 7 meg photos are 3072 by 2304 - 6,248,448 but as imported jpegs (fine resolution) their size in iphoto is typically 2.8 to 3.0 meg

Problems downloading photos from iPhoto to iPod 5G classic

Until recently I had no problems downloading my photo library to my iPod (~250 photos). However, the last couple of groups of photos I've gotten I cannot transfer. I get an error message that reads "The iPod cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to." My last 3 rolls do not transfer to the iPod, although all the other photos do as well as all songs, movies, calendars, etc. Everything else is OK just the last 3 photo rolls. 2 of the 3 problem rolls were gathered from emails, but so were others that load fine. The last roll was downloaded from the BART website and will not transfer.
Anybody know what's up with this?

Thanks again TD
I will check on the formating when I get home, I am pretty sure that I haven't used any no-ascii characters, but will double check.
Before I download iphoto library manager, I just wanted to report an interesting experiment that I tried last night that may point in a different direction:
I keep my iphoto library on a second internal HD, so I thought I would just try making a complete copy of my iphoto library onto my desktop. Once I did this, I started up iPhoto with alt and choose the desktop version of the library and all worked perfectly, my iphoto albums showed instantly in my photo tab in itunes when I selected to sync with iphoto.
My next move was to rename my old library and then copy my desktop version into the folder where the old library is. Once I did this the problem was back again.
I have no reason to believe that it is the second disc that is causing the problem, as that is where I have always kept my itunes and iphoto libraries and they have worked without problem.
(As I am writing this, it dawned upon me that I missed one important test, I should have tried the old library after I had renamed it, but stil in the same place.)
I am now suspecting that the problem may be linked to an external drive that I addded to the system at Christmas. This was a WD My Book which I use for backup, the link being that I use the software that came with it to do autobackups that includes my iphoto library folder. I am wondering if this software does something to the folder.
Thoughts welcome.

I am trying to download my photos from my iphone to my mac-iphoto. It keeps trying but about halfway through it says there is an error with a photo therefore it wont download any of my pictures or videos. It wont tell me which picture is the issue.

I took a lot of pictures and video on my recent trip to Ireland. Now I am trying to download the photos and videos from my iphone to my mac - iphoto. I have tried 3 times and each time (at a different point) I get a message telling me that there was an error with one of my photos and it wont load the pictures. Help!!

Try using Image Capture to download to a folder on the Desktop. If there's a damaged file on the iPhone that's preventing the download you can isolate it with Image Capture and then delete it from the iPhone.

I downloaded some photos that were from an older version of iPhoto. i installed the application to upgrade. i opened iphoto,

I downloaded some photos that were from an older version of iPhoto,I was asked to install the application to upgrade/. (Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete.) I clicked ok, & iphoto will now not open or close. It continues to search, even when I turn computer off & back on. Please, HELP??? I NNED my photos!

Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database
