How can i Move pic from internal hdd to an external hdd

hi everyone, i had a new Mac Book Air for a couple months ago, notice my internal hdd is getting full of pic, i would like to move them to an external HDD, how can i do that, i looked at the Iphoto library folder, nothing there, or i can not see them, any help will be appreciate it, and thank you in advance for your help...

If you have a large iPhoto library, you can save space by moving it to an external drive, yes. You will not be able to see the individual pictures in the library file - just move the entire IPhoto Library file to the other drive, then double-click it to open iPhoto and tell the application where your new library is.
If your image collection is not in iPhoto, where is it?

  • How can I move photos from pictures to my Iomega external hard drive?  I have copied all photos, however it won't allow me to paste them.  The paste button is grayed out.

    Do you want to copy some pictures to the external drive, or do you want to move your whole iPhoto library? The latter will free up hard drive space on your start up disk; the procedure is explained here:

    Note this is not the same as a Time Machine backup.
    If on the other hand you want to copy some photos from one drive to another, you can just drag and drop them from one location to another. This is a true copy, the originals will remain intact.

  • How can I move pictures from my computer to my ipad?

    can i move pics from a non apple computer to my ipad?  If so, how?

    Yes - there are instructions on how to sync them via iTunes here : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236 . As only the contents of the last photo sync remain on the iPad, you need to sync all the photos that you want in one go, so if you want to sync multiple folders they will need to be directly off the same parent folder so that they can be selected together. Not including a folder in a subsequent sync is the way that you delete that folder/album from teh iPad.
    You can also use third-party apps which can transfer photos via your wifi network to and from your computer (the photos will only go into the camera roll/saved photos album so you have less control in terms of destination than with syncing) e.g. Simple Transfer, which also has a free 'lite' version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer

    She can choose to either enable the setting on her iPod to Manually manage music and videos.  With setting enabled she can sync content to her iPod from multiple computers without it affecting whats already stored her iPod. For more information on syncing content to an iPod manually see this article.

    However, I would recommend copying whats on her iPod to her iTunes library first.  There are several ways to accomplish this.  See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer discussing the different ways to do it.
