How can I return my photos from my passport backup to my macbook pro?

Somehow I have lost my photo library- hopefully it is all on my passport back up- question is, how do I get it from the passport back to the macbook? Thanks!

Greetings Karynfromcharleston,
Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPhoto library is missing. I know it can be worrying when data can't be located, and there are a few possible methods to recover your photo library from your external hard drive.
If you moved or copied your iPhoto library to your external drive, you can use the steps in this article to copy it back to your MacBook Pro:

If you are backing up your MacBook Pro to your external drive using Time Machine, you can use the steps in this article to restore your backed up photo library.

How can I upload my photos from an sd card to my Macbook Pro? I have done everything I know to do, and yet it still doens't work, I am frustrated and ready to sell this thing.

I am so frustated with this computer, I cannot get it to do anything. I have read all the forums about moving photos from an sd card to this computer and nothing is working..Can anyone please help me before I sell this thing?

put the card in the card reader, open the card (it should appear on your desktop) select the photos you want to copy and drag them to where ever you want to store them, or copy and paste them. it is exceedingly simple.
alternately open image capture and select the card from the list of devices and import them from there. again very easy.

How can I import a movie from sony DCR trv340 tape to Macbook Pro?

I have started using iMovie, I know it's been there quite a while, and I am trying to imort from a tape using Sony DCR-TRV340. I can import tapes created on the TRV340 but other tapes that were created on a different Sony device, from back in late 1980's will not load. When I pllay them on the camcorder they appear and I can watch them in iMove but they will not record. It says NO DATA FROM DEVICE. Is there a way to fix that or a setting that needs to be changed?
Any hel would be appreciated.

A dual mode camcorder with both a photo camera and camcorder function.
While Apple doesn't seem to list these as compatible, have you tried connecting with a firewire cable, and turning on iMovie and seeing if it recognizes your camcorder?
Here is Apple's commentary on trying to get a camcorder to work:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1059#2
What about contacting Samsung, often companies have a knowledge base.
I know this isn't what you were asking, but if you have something recorded you absolutely must have, I have a hunch a friend with an older windows computer might be able to get it downloaded, then you could transfer it by thumbdrive to imovie.
Just a thought.

How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system. Not enough memory to upgrade.

How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system. Not enough memory to upgrade.

You can't. iCloud is not for general file backup from a Mac. It's for backup up and syncing data between mobile devices and and Macs and The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Backup and restore overview.
iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your (mobile) device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
What is backed up
You get unlimited free storage for:
Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
App data
Home screen and app organization
Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
Ringtones
Visual Voicemails
But not from a Mac. If you want to backup your photos and other important files I suggest you get an external hard drive and use it with Time Machine.

How can I get all photos from the camera roll onto the photo stream so they will share between iphone and ipad?

How can I get all photos from the camera roll, and all new pictures taken, to get on the photostream so they can share between iphone and ipad?

When turning PhotoStream on with photos available in the Camera Roll, only photos captured by the iPhone or saved on the iPhone are placed in the PhotoStream.
For all photos that were in the Camera Roll prior to turning PhotoStream on, import the photos with your computer and add the photos to your PhotoStream on your computer.

How can I use a photo from my files as a screen saver?

I have an LG monitor about 10" high and 16" wide. How can I send a photo from my Adobe files to my desktop as a screen saver. Because of the odd dimensions of this monitor, the one I have as a screensaver now does not show the entire photo. I need instructions how to choose one of my photos, send it to the monitor as a screen saver, and make it the correct size to show the entire photo.

You'll need to download the song from your cd to your my music folder, then open Itunes files add files or folder to the library then you find your song from your my music folder. Then you will have to create the ringtone:

How can I move a photo from one project to another

How can I move a photo from one project to another without creating a duplicate so I have the same photo in two projects.
I seems to me in the past when I moved the photo from project 1 to project 2, I would get a number showing the # of photos being moved and you could drag and drop in the 2nd folder and the photos would disappear from project 1 and show up in project 2. is there a setting I am missing. Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
Any suggestion?

The projects are the basic containers. Each image and all its versions are in exactly one project.
You can use an image in many albums, without duplicating it, also in many products like books, screensaver, slideshows. But the projects are the basic structure of the library and you cannot have the same image in two different project, without duplicating it by storing the same original image files twice. Use albums to organize your library thematically.
Sorry, I misread your question. Dragging an image file between projects should move the image and all its versions to the other project. Aperture should only duplicate the image, if you hold down the alt/options key while dragging and move the image otherwise.
Which Aperture version are you using? And which MacOS X version? Is your profile signature "MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS 9.2.x, Aperture 3.5.1" still valid?
In Aperture 3.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 dragging between projects is still working as expected:

How can I move my photos from Mac to iCloud?

I want use my iCloud account but I don't know how can I leave my files in iCloud. I use a MacBook pro and I need leave some pictures just in iCloud...and take off from my Mac.

iCloud is not a photo storage service and Photo Stream is a tool to share photos rather than to back them up. For the most part iCloud is about sharing your data between devices. It does have some back up features such as storing your iOS devices back up but most media should be propperly backed up using your computer's back up routines.
In iPhoto you can send a copy of a photo to your Photo Stream by selecting it and clicking the "Share" button. Photo Stream has a 1000 photo limit and will only store them for 30 days. I have not come close to the 1000 photo limit nor have any of my photos been deleted after 30 days, but I still wouldn't use it for a back up.
