Dropping unedited RAW files as jpegs from iPhoto to USB drive

Hi, I would like to share some RAW format pictures from iPhoto by dropping them onto a USB thumb drive. How do I make sure the files are jpegs as they go onto the USB drive?
The photos I have edited in iPhoto go on as jpegs fine but those that haven't been edited remain as RAW files when dragged onto the USB drive. A batch drag and drop and non-duplicating process would be preferable.
Sam

Sam,
Select the photos you want in the iPhoto Window and do File > Export > File Export. In the export dialog choose Format: JPG. Export to a Desktop folder, then use the Finder to drop that folder onto your thumb drive. If you'd like the files renamed based on their iPhoto titles or album, you can do that, too. You can delete the exports when done, since your files remain inside the iPhoto Library.
By the way, iPhoto always makes a jpeg version of each RAW file - it has to in order to display them on your screen.
Regards.

  • HT3825 so how do you convert the raw files to jpeg in iphoto?

    how do you convert the raw files to jpeg in iphoto?

    Many thanks Barbara and dj_paige.
    What I didn't mention is that I'm using PSE 5 with ACR 4.6, if its relevant.  I'm thinking of updating to the next version when its out in the hope that it will run with Windows 7 64 bit or I may go to Lightroom.
    I can now see that I can batch convert a whole folder of files using "process multiple files" as dj_paige suggested but that is too many at once as the settings I choose won't be relevant for all the pics in the folder. 
    I was hoping to batch convert say 5 or 6 similar photos at a time with the same settings. I'm not quite clear what you're suggesting but I'm hoping that its a "work round" using two stages to achieve this. 
    I can't see a list of open files within ACR to ensure that they are all selected as you suggest. 
    What does clicking Open rather than Done mean?  Does this amend the original RAW file to the settings selected so that if I then "process multiple files" on the whole folder to convert from RAW to JPEG they will in fact have already been processed in smaller groups so I can convert without applying any further changes?
    If so, what settings should I apply to "process multiple files" to ensure a simple conversion of file type rather than any further adjustments?
    Any further help on this would be much appreciated.

  • Why does aperture convert my raw files to jpegs when I import them from iPhoto?

    Why does aperture convert my raw files to jpegs when I import them from iPhoto?

    It doesn't.
    When you import  Raw to iPhoto the app makes a jpeg preview of the Raw automatically. When you import from iPhoto then Aperture brings over both versions.

  • HOW TO CONVERT RAW FILES TO JPEG RGB 8 BIT in iphoto

    Can someone please tell me how to convert RAW files to jpeg RGB 8 bit in iphoto on an iMac?

    How are you trying to "export to Mypics"? The only way to get a Raw out of iPhoto is to export with the Kind set to Original.

  • Cannot drag and drop photos into folder on desktop from iphoto

    Hope you can help.  I was backing up a lot of photos onto an external disk yesterday, both from iPhoto and Bridge.
    The photos that are now left in iPhoto cannot be dragged and dropped into a folder on my desktop.  I had been doing this yesterday and it was working fine.
    I also seem to have lost the RAW information from all the Photos and they will now only open in Photoshop if I drag them to the Photoshop icon on my desktop but they are only opening as JPEGs.  Before that I could right click the Photo and choose open in external editor, it won't let me do that anymore.
    Thanks in advance.

    Maybe your  iPhoto > Preferences > Advanced > Importing  settings aren't set to "Copy items to the iPhoto Library"? If that's the case, iPhoto only references the photos from their containing folder without duplicating them, and if you move or delete that folder iPhoto looses the link to the originals photos.
    If your  iPhoto > Preferences > Advanced > Importing  settings are set to "Copy items to the iPhoto Library" then the problem may also be related to what I consider a user interface bug in Mac OS X which allows you to access the content of the the iPhoto Library very easily from the Finder, which shouldn't happen (the iPhoto Library has been made into a monolitic file package in the latest versions of iLife specifically to prevent this):
    Just search for any JPEG file into your hard disk and presto, every photo contained into that iPhoto Library file package appears in the Finder ready to be easily moved and deleted by the user, corrupting the iPhoto Library!
    Maybe the new photos come up as JPEGs because iPhoto converts the RAW files to JPEG as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2297?viewlocale=en_US#one

  • Export a raw file to jpeg losses lens information

    When I export a raw file to jpeg it losses the lens information.

    Ernie,
    I have never paid attention to those tags on exported JPGs before, but I have recreated the scenario you described.  I have a Canon XTi, and my CR2 master files have about 12 more EXIF tags than the JPG versions.  Excluded in the JPG is the lens model. 
    However, the lens information for my camera is Canon proprietary tags.  That is, the general EXIF lens tags are not populated by my camera, so I would not expect them to be translated to regular EXIF tags by Aperture in a JPG.  I.e., I don't think Aperture will take metadata from one proprietary tag and put it in the place of another standard tag.  I suspect that is the same is true in your case.

  • How can I process raw files in Aperture from a Sony RX1?

    How can I process raw files in Aperture from my Sony RX1?

    Here is a list of supported cameras
    <http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html>
    Your Sony RX1 is not listed. Your best bet would be to use the software, that came with your camera to convert the raw files to tiff and to import the tiff to Aperture. Or to shoot raw+jpeg and to import the pairs and to work with the jpeg versions as original master files, until Aperture supports your camera.

    HHi Barbara, thanks for replying to my post.
    No there's nothing wrong with the Jpegs, but I want to srart uploading images for sale in Alamy, but they say they must be a minimum of 17mb un compressed. Does that mean that at 6mb compressed from 90mb they'd be acceptable?
    thanks,

  • Lightroom wont allow me to convert RAW file to JPEG

    Hi
    I have tried and failed to export a RAW file to JPEG. When i highlight the RAW images to export i get a message, "source file are offline or missing". Does anyone know what this means and how can i save RAW images to JPEG?

    I chose to move the images to a different file when they were exported to jpeg
    Do you mean "I chose to move the images to a different file  FOLDER when they BEFORE I TRIED to export to jpeg"?
    If so, this is an unnecessary step in Lightroom, that actually interferes with you using the photos in Lightroom. Best to not move the files any more using your operating system, and use Lightroom tools such as keywords, captions and other metadata to help you segregate and organize your photos.
    To fix this problem now, either use your operating system to move the photos back to their original location, or use this: http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm

  • Hello- I am a Canon photographer.  I use Bridge (CS5) to process my raw files to jpegs.  I am taking on a second photographer who shoots Nikon (D800) and i am not currenty able to see or process his images.  Can you please help?  thankyou!

    Hello- I am a Canon photographer.  I use Bridge (CS5) to process my raw files to jpegs.  I am taking on a second photographer who shoots Nikon (D800) and i am not currently able to see or process his images.  Can you please help?  thank you!

    According to Adobe:
    D800
    NEF
    6.7, 7.1
    4.1
    D800E
    NEF
    6.7, 7.1
    4.1
    The fact that they have 2 versions of ACR means that initial support for the D800 was added in 6.7  but that complete support was finalized in 7.1 (the 4.1 in the chart is for Lightroom)
    I'm not sure that this means there are missing features, but rather refinements and optimized settings were added in 7.1
    However, ACR 7.1 requires CS6.
    As Dag mentioned, you can also use the latest version of DNG Converter to convert the D800 files to DNGs which will be able to be opened in older versions of ACR.
    The DNG converter only works on folders of files, not individual files. So just select the folder and convert. All the files in the folder will be converted.

  • How do you convert Raw files into jpeg.

      I have never shot in Raw before and I have a huge project due tomorrow. I need help Asap. What is the easiest way to convert Raw files into jpeg, can Light Room convert the files. I have tried so many different ways and nothing seems to work.

    It depends on the sofware you have.  ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) hosted by Bridge or by Photoshop can convert ("open") raw files, as can Lightroom.
    However, not all camera models are supported by all versions of the software.  We need to know the make and exact model of the camera that generated the raw files to advice you further.
    We can also assist you with the conversion through ACR hosted by Photoshop.
    Olease note that there are dedicated forums for Lightroom, for Adobe Camera Raw and for Bridge.
    Here's the list of which cameras are supported by each version of ACR.  Note that later versions supporte all camera models supported in previous versions of ACR.
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
    Note that the latest version of ACR to run in CS4 is ACR 5.3;
    CS3 runs ACR 4.6;
    CS2 runs ACR 3.7;
    CS runs 2.4.
