Exchance (import/export)  photo's (incl hided) between mac's, how to do?

Dear Photo Geniuses
Been on holiday and shot some 1500 pics. We brought a macbook along so we hided (cmd-L) 500 of them and already tweaked some others on the same macbook.
At home I have a iMac and I want to import all the pictures, including the hided.
So far: I seem not be able to import all of the photographs via import or drag and drop (full connection between 2 macs) so I copied all the directories of the events to my iMac. Still had to hide the 500 pics again.
Since I want to tweak the photos and the re-import them to the macbook I hope there is a better way of doing this.
Software for both macs is the same.
Anyone know the trick?
NB: imac and Macbook have different library's and that has to stay that way (Different owners )

The only way to move Files / Albums / Events plus associated metadata and versions between Libraries is with iPhoto Library Manager.
As for the Hidden pics: Give them a keyword, then when you move to the other Library you can find them quickly with a Smart Album and hide them again.

  • My laptop does not recognize my iPhone 3GS as a camera device. I need to import my photos and videos and don't know how

    Hi everyone,
    my laptop does not recognize my iPhone 3GS as a camera device anymore.
    I need to import my photos and videos and don't know how.
    The iPhone does charge when I plus it in the USB hub but it does not ask me to import the photos anymore
    and it also doesn't show it as a device when I click on the "computer" button where an SD card or an Usb stick would normally be displayed..
    I don't know what to do

    Thank you, randers4! I now plugged it directly into the ports of my laptop and it's still not recognized.
    Does the app Photosync work for more than a thousand photos or will this take me forever?
    Thanks a lot

  • After downloading OS X I can't find any of my photos I had on my mac. How do I get them back?

    After downloading OS X I can't find any of my photos I had on my mac. How do I get them back?

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • How to Import/Export Photos AND revisions

    I have Lightroom 1.3.1 installed on my home machine, and that's where I process my RAW photos. I've recently installed Lightroom on a machine at work, and would like to occasionally export pictures from a specific folder on my home machine to my machine at work. In addition to importing my photos, I would also like to retain all of the revisions I've made to them (cropping, WB adjustment, color adjustment, etc.). I don't think that I need to import the ENTIRE catalog, but please correct me if I'm wrong. I just want the ability to move photos and settings on a per folder basis at this time.
    With that said, can someone please provide me with step-by-step instructions on how I should export all photos AND catalog settings from a single folder? I recently tried to do this, and while I was able to bring the photos into my work machine, the revisions were not recognized on my work machine. My picture rotations, crops, WB and color adjustments were all lost, even though I exported (and tried to import) the catalog.
    Thanks for any help you can provide me.

  • Best Way to Export Photos/Videos from iDevice to Mac?

    I recently switched from Windows to a Mac. Honestly, OS X works like a beautifully, and I'm loving it so far.
    However, one thing has been annoying me like crazy. How does one export photos and videos from their iDevice (i.e. iPhone, iPad) WITHOUT iPhoto? Because, quite frankly, iPhoto just (for lack of a better word) *****. Love the idea that it can manage photos for me, but I want to be able to see them individually as files on a drive for sake of easily carrying it around on my external and plugging in to view them on any computer. I've been organizing my photos in Windows in the Photos folder that is created by default for years now. All I had to do was plug in my iDevice and I would simply cut the images to my hard drive. They were there, and I could see them as actual files instead of whatever file system iPhoto uses for its library.
    Please give me solutions that retain all EXIF data in the photos and videos. Not only does iPhoto prevent me from seeing the photos individually as files, but whenever I export the photos to see as actual files, it messes up the dates on the photos, making it look like they were taken on the days I exported them using iPhoto. I can't even understand why it even works like that.

    I see that Image Capture works well for imports, as it doesn't mess up the EXIF data. I guess this is how those of us who want to export the actual files are supposed to do it.
    iPhoto keeps the 'actual' files in the Mac's Pictures folders, just open the iPhoto library (rightclick, choose Show Package Contents), they are in the folder labeled 'Originals'

  • Import edited Photos from iPhone 5s to Mac

    Hello Everyone!
    How can I import several photos from my iPhone 5s (updated to the latest iOS 8.0.2 (12A405)) to my macbook Pro (updated to OS X 10.9.5)?
    I've been searching all over the net, all over support.apple, iPhoto help, iphone help, and I am unable to do this. I found sending email with attachments a very inefficient way, (i've been looking all over for over 4 ridiculous hours). iPhoto would only import originals.
    I also tried iCloud sharing, but besides being a bore, it doesn't save the location when exporting.
    It seems i've once achieved to import edited pictures, after several hours of searching, but now I can't recall how i did it. It -the way i did it that time- created a folder with the event name inside the iphoto library, but now when I try to import with iphoto, it will save only the original file, and save it in some weird named folder, which is inside of another weird named folder and so on. I have to import more than 5gb of photos this time which are already edited on the phone, need a way to do this without making it one by one, and would like to save the location data, since they are from trips in Europe.
    I need a hero! Any help would be kindly appreciated, since i'm running out of ideas, and getting really tired of this (:
    Thanks all!
    Ki

    There is no easy solution, I'm afraid.
    If the shared photo streams are not an option for you, wait with transferring your edited photos for a bug fix.  The current Photos.app in iOS 8.0.2 does not have the option to save a copy of the edited photo to the camera roll, and shared photo streams do no longer transfer the GPS. If you can wait for an iOS 8 update to fix this, wait a bit.
    Dropbox will also transfer the edits, but the GPS is also missing.
    Mailing the photo will remove the GPS.
    You may want to send feedback to Apple with a bug report that edited photos cannot be transferred properly right now. http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto_ios.html

  • Import selected photos button not working, Please tell me how to enable this function.

    in Iphoto on macbook pro, the 'import selected' button blacked out, only 'import all photos' works, pls tell me how to get this to work. i'd like to transfer only selected photos to ipad. Have tried to import by copy/paste method into itunes but still cannot be done, every way i've tried is restricted. I don't want to send all my photos through email. neither do i want to use icloud. all i simply want is to have only selected photos sent through my USB cable connected from my macbook pro to send photos to Ipad. It seems Apple have made these strange restrictions for whatever purpose i don't know.

    If you went through the 5 Rs step by step and you're still having problems, it might be time to find an iPod repair service. Apple will charge you as it's out of warranty. You can probably find third party repair outfits that will do it more cheaply.

  • How to find out import & export path for object migration between D Q & P?

    Hi guys!
    Is there a way, how to find out export and import path for object transport on XI?
    Thanx!
    Olian

    Hi,
    Have a look at these links.
    When we do an export of the IR or the ID Oblects, a typical path at which it gets exported in the XI Server is as follow:
    For IR Objects:
    “C:\usr\sap\PI1\SYS\global\xi\repository_server\export “
    For ID Objects:
    "C:\usr\sap\PI1\SYS\global\xi\directory_server\export"
    Now in case you need to import the ".tpz" that you have.... You need to place it in the path mentioned below and u will be able to do import it from IR or ID...
    For IR Objects:
    “C:\usr\sap\PI1\SYS\global\xi\repository_server\import “
    For ID Objects:
    "C:\usr\sap\PI1\SYS\global\xi\directory_server\import"
    File Level transport in sap xi
    Every SLD related transport details are explained here

  • How to export photos from Elements Organizer on Mac?

    I saw someone asked the same question and it seemed not to be possible with the Mac version. Surely this can't be possible as this must be one of the single most important functions in an Archving system.

    rugfoot wrote:
    The problem is I can't move them to a new folder. If I could I wouldn't have the export problem. I just dragging and dropping but it doesn't work. I have made a selection (15) of photos in Elements Organizer but I can't identify which ones they are (from 300) in the Mac Finder app (= Windows Explorer).
    Sorry, I can't test that on a Mac, but I thought that 'Windows only' features would be stated on the Adobe pdf help file, and moving file is not mentionned as Windows only, whereas 'export' is clearly stated as Windows only.

    By the way, the very useful faq list in the right panel of this forum links to PSE9, not PSE10 for the location of the guides.

  • Exporting photos from ipod to desktop mac....help.

    I had one mac crash and the some of the photos from that computer are on an old ipod (4th gen - I think) and I need to put the photos on our other mac.  Keep getting error messages that other mac does not recognize photo format?

    There are various programs out there for recovering photos from an iPod, have a look at the ones below. If you search the internet you can find more. Just be aware that what you'll be recovering will be photos optimised for the iPod so they won't be the same quality as the original full resolution versions:
    iPodPhotoCopy Windows only
    CopyPodPhoto Windows only
    Tansee iPod Transfer Photo Windows only
    iPod Photo Liberator Mac & Windows
    TouchCopy Mac and Windows Versions (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    If you have full resolution copies of the photos on the iPod have a look here: Apple Knowledge Base article - Use Disk Mode to copy photos from iPod

  • Exporting Photo

    I had a need to upload some photos in the iphone (iphone4, IOS 4.2.1) to a web page. I imported the photos into iPhoto (iPhoto 9, Mac OS X 10.6.6) and then exported them as .jpeg. When I imported them into the web page I was working with they would sometimes show the photo but also show navigation bars at the top and bottom of the iPhone screen. These bars show on the iPhone when you tap on the photo in order to return to the Camera roll, go to next photo, etc.
    Obviously this graphic stuff is being exported with the photo as what? Additional frame, part of the meta data?
    So does anyone know how to process the photo to suppress this stuff?
    Thanks, John Shanks

    o-t j:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I'm sure I've seen this same subject discussed. Do a search in the form for "iPhoto Keynote" and see what you get.
    A workaround might be using the "Save PDF to iPhoto" option under the PDF menu button in the Print window. A jpg of each file will be created and added to iPhoto. You can then drag those jpgs into the Keynote window to add as desired.
    Do you Twango?

  • Import 800K photos (many duplicates) into Aperture from multiple folders in one hard drive.

    I have a hard drive with 800,000+ photos in it, many are duplicates after I have made multiple back-ups to different drives over the years and then transferred all the photos to this new drive. The photos are located in different folders but are all in the same hard-drive. How do a import the photos in the easiest/fastest way? How will they get sorted, by date? Is there anyway that I could delete the duplicates without losing photos? I have many photos with the same file name (but from different cameras), tumbnails, edited photos etc.
    Very thankful for your assistance!

    Hi,
    You can import photos from multiple folders.
    Just click File >> Get Photos and Videos >> From Files and Folders
    Now select the folders you want to import photos from (they should be at same level in the directory, say all folders in My Pictures) using Ctrl+Click, tick the checkbox for 'Get Photos from subfolders' if not already checked and then click 'Get Media'.
    Hope that will help
    Thanks

  • Export photos with original metadata

    I have original photos that states the time taken and all other datas of my camera but once I edited and export from aperture, the new photos do not have the original metadata in it anymore. Is it possible to export photos with the original/master metadata?

    How are you viewing the "metadata time"?
    The file creation date is not the same as the metadata field "Date".
    To view the metadata of an image-format file created by exporting an Image from Aperture, open it in Preview (the app that comes with OS X), run "Tools➞Show Inspector", and click the "Exif" tab.

  • Import of photos from iPad frozen and cannot close i photo or disconnect iPad

    import of photos from i-pad to i-mac has stalled midstream.  Cannot close i-photos or disconnect pad from mac.  How do I proceed please?

    Thank you Nick.  I did a version of that by closing the pad, unplugging then force quit i photos.  I am very new to i Mac but learning fast.  The Mac opened in I photos when I plugged in the pad, not I tunes as normal.  As soon as opened I tunes then plugged in the pad, it all fell into place.
