How can I import photo notes from Canon Zoombrowser to iPhoto?

Hi all,
I used Canon Zoombrowser on various PCs before recently changing to a Mac, and have years' worth of photos all painstakingly annotated using the Notes field in Zoombrowser. When I import these photos to iPhoto there is no sign of the content of the Notes field. (In an ideal world, I guess it would automatically appear in the Description field.)
I know the Notes field info is stored with the .jpg file, as it's there when I copy photos to other PCs and view them using Zoombrowser. Just wondering if anyone else has faced this problem, and what to do to fix it? Don't want to lose years' worth of notes!
Thanks
Anna

Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
I have never heard of Cannon Zoombrowser - in doing a google search on it it appears to be a proprietary program for processing movies
iPhoto works with photo standards - if the date is in industry standard EXIF or IPTC fields - http://www.controlledvocabulary.com/imagedatabases/iptc_naa.html - they are correctly processed in iPhoto - if they are in non standard fields then iPhoto will not handle them
So the answer is that it depends on if Cannon Zoombrowser handles the data in a standard way or not

  • How can I import photo's from an older iPod to my new iMac ? I can do "import" in iPhoto, but the system does not "see" my iPod, even if it is connected to the iMac

    I bought a new iMac. All photo's from the old iMac are on my iPod. The old iMac had a problem, due to which I could not transfer photo's. So I am trying to import the photo's from my iPod to my new iMac. But this does not work. The new iMac suggests to replace the content of the iPod with the content of the iMac, but I want to do just the reverse. When the iPod is connected to the iMac, the iMac seems to ignore the iPod. Probably because the iPod was first used on the old iMac ?

    Photos on the iPod are not stored in standard formats, but in formats that are optimised for the space annd screen size of the device. So, unless you have specifically chosen to save full size images on the iPod - and have set up disk access for the job - then it's not going to work.
    There are apps that will recover photos from iPods. Have a search on MacUpdate
    But the best solution is to get the pics from your old Mac somehow.

  • How can I Import photos directly from Mail into iPhoto?

    Prior to updating to Lion, when viewing photo attachments within Apple Mail, I could do a quick preview of attached photo(s) within the email and click an iPhoto icon that would import the photos into iPhoto. Something has changed now when selecting "Quick Look" I do not get an option to send the photo to iPhoto. Am I missing somthing or is this feature no longer available with Lion/Mail?

    Not sure if this helps or not. I recently installed Lion for my mother, and she couldn't figure out how to export photos in an email to iPhoto. Turns out she had to click on Details in the upper right corner of the email message. Then the Save and Quick Look buttons returned. If you click and hold on Save (possibly on the triangle on the right side of the button) there is an option to save to iPhoto.
    I haven't upgraded to Lion myself yet so I can't answer your specific question regarding saving to iPhoto from the Quick Look preview.

  • HT201302 how can i import photos from iphone to pc

    how can i import photos from iphone to pc?

    For photos taken with the iPhone or saved from emails/websites then on a PC you should be able to use the Windows Camera Wizard or just copy them via Windows Explorer (there is more info on this page).
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPhone, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

    How can I import photos from my iPhone?
    I was able to use iPhoto to import from my iPhone on my old MacPro, but iPhoto does not seem to work on my new iMac.

    How are you trying? There are two ways: by hooking it up with a USB cord, or by photo streaming.

    You can't, natively with the iPhone. The photo sync is one way: computer to phone. To do what you want requires third-party software, like this:

  • How can i import photos from ipad to itunes, how can i import photos from ipad to itunes

    How can I import photos from my iPad to iTunes on my Windows Vista PC?

    I'm puzzled!  I had received a set of jpg files through an e-mail on my ipad.  For reasons unknown to me, they got saved to my (only) album, that had an irrelevant name.  When I tried to change the name of the album, I received a message that I could only change the name of the album after importing them to the computer where (as I recall) iTunes resided.  After much huffing and puffing, I managed to import the photos, to the Windows computer, but they wound up in a Windows Photo Gallery directory, where I put them into an appropriately named album.  Now, how do I get them back to the iPad.  (I also learned, I think, that iTunes will have nothing to do with the photos.

  • How can I import photos from iPhoto-library to edit in Photoshop CC? - and save it back to the iPhoto-library?

    How can I import photos from iPhoto-library to edit in Photoshop CC? - and save it back to the iPhoto-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 Raw files from a canon eos 6d?

    How can I import RAW files from a Canon Eos 6D into aperture?

    Doesn;t look like the 6d is supported yet. I'm surprised, thought it would have  been in the latest update, 4.02.
    In the meantime you can shot RAW+JPG and use the JPG's now and then switch to the RAW's once it is supported or else you an convert the RAWs to DNG using Adobe's converter and import the DNGs.
    While I can't say for sure  Canon cameras are usually supported fairly quickly so hopefully you won't have to much longer to wait.
    regards
    And in the meantime let Apple now you want this see Aperture->Provide Aperture Feedback

  • How can I import photos from camera to computer?

    The "Get Photos" selection has disappeared from my Elements 9 screen. How can I import photos from my camera to my computer?

    Yes, the entire top bar disappeared. I no longer see the place to click to
    initiate the import, and I don't see the place to select the camera from
    which to import or the place where I used to select a file or create a new
    file in which to save the pictures when they are imported. I clicked
    Organize when I entered the program, but everything looks slightly
    different. What can I do. I certainly don't want to jeopardize over 3,000
    photos installed.
    Thanks.

  • How can I import HDV-Files from a CF-Card to Final cut Pro 5.1.4

    How can I import HDV-Files from a CF-Card (recorded with the Sony HVR Z 7E) to Final cut Pro Version 5.1.4 – is this possible at all?
    I managed to import the files to Premiere, but it was just a test. I am working at a very huge documentary project with Final cut Pro Version 5.1.4 thats why I would prefere not to change the program or the version.
    Simply exporting from Premiere back to final cut is also very complicated.
    Thanks for any ideas.

    First, copy the card to a hard drive connected to your fcp workstation.  I always back up all card based media at least 2 or three times.  All hard drive will eventually fail.  It's a question of when, not if.
    I'm not familiar with this particular camera, but examine the contents of the copied files and see if you can find any .mov files.  You can try importing these directly into fcp.
    If you don't, you can try something like clipwrap
    http://www.divergentmedia.com/clipwrap
    or
    Magic Bullet Grinder
    http://www.redgiantsoftware.com/
    But, I'd really advise upgrading to at least fcp6 or ideally fcp7 if you can find a copy.  HDV is a problematic format.  Although you can certainly work with it and it's a fcp approved format, converting your media to prores would make your life much easier.

    Time Machine is a back up you have to set up to back up before there is a problem like a hard drive failure.
    It is possible to recover files from a failed drive, but it is an expensive proposition.
    There is a faint hope that an app like Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro might repair the drive. You could try making an appointment at an Apple store and ask a technician there to take a look... the diagnosis will not cost you.
