How can I sort photos from two users into one

I have two users on my Mac and I am trying to get all my photos onto my new External hard drive.  I want one user, one photo library stored on my external hard drive.  Help!

If you have Aperture 3.3 or later and iPhoto 9.3 or later you can merge libraries with Aperture.
Otherwise the only way to merge Libraries is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager

  • How can I put photos from two iphones in one library?

    I want to use one family Macbook pro for downloading photos from two iphones with separate apple IDs.  In other words, we'd like to have all our photos stored in one library on the Macbook.  Possible, and if so how does one set it up?

    If you use iPhoto on the Macbook you can merge the photos from multiple cameras (iPhones) into one library. The Apple Id is irrelevant for this.

  • How Can I Combine Podcasts from Two Computers Into One ?

    I download podcasts on two computers - my home PC and my work/travel laptop. My IPod syncs to my home PC. What I would like to be able to do is transfer all the podcasts I have downloaded from my laptop to my home PC (as my internet speed at home isn't great), then sync it all to my IPod. Is this possible ?

    Well it works.....sometimes. It works OK with audio podcasts, but not with *.mov video podcasts. It DOES work with *.M4V video podcasts. I found this out by trying to add all the Tiki Bar TV files, and only the Boomerang episode transferred OK.
    The strange thing is this - while the *.MOV vpodcasts don't show up in the Podcast window in ITunes, they DO transfer over and show up in Library>Genre 'Podcasts'>. How can I force them to appear in the Podcasts window ?
    Cheers

  • How can I move photos from other albums into the camera roll

    I have synced photos from my computer onto the iPad. There placed in a different album. How can I move them into the camera roll?

    You could do it by setting up a Shared Photo Stream. Select the photos in the Photo app then tap the Shared button selecting Photo Stream. Just don't enter any email address and it will appear on your other devices. Only photos can be added and not albums so you will have to re-organize then on the iPhone.
    I would recommend getting the photos to the computer as well though. Create a photo library on the computer and sync then over to the iphone with iTunes. The photo library on the computer can be added to a more reliable backup.

  • How can we transfer music from two iPods onto one new one

    My partner an I have two iPod classics and an iPod touch, can we transfer and edit the content in store when the new nano arrives as we have no access to a PC?

    iPods (that are not iPod touch) need to sync with a computer (Mac or Windows PC) running iTunes.  There is no way to transfer content directly between iPods, or using an iOS device (like your iPod touch).

  • How can I transfer photos from my Imac OS9 to a Macbook Pro OS 10 ? 10

    How can I transfer photos from my Imac OS9 to a Macbook Pro OS 10 ?

    The easiest way is probably to use a USB flash drive (you may have to test whether it is compatible with the Mac OS 9 iMac).
    Somewhat more complicated would be to connect the two computers via Ethernet to (the built-in switch of) a broadband router, and then transfer files over the Internet (or a local network).
    There are other methods as well (FireWire, CD-R, et cetera), depending upon the exact computer models involved.

    How can I move photos from iPhoto to Finder?

    It is better to export (file menu ==> export) since when you export you control exactly what you get - see the user tip on exporting for details
    When you drag and drop you get the current preview with limited Metadata

  • 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 download photos from mac to other hard wear device

    Depends on the actual device.
    If it's an iOS device you can sync via iTunes.
    Other devices: Export from iPhoto to the FInder and send them from there.

  • How can I export photos from Aperture with a new sequence and ignore the embedded JPEG number? Have tried renumbering to no avail.

    How can I export photos from APERTURE with a new sequence and ignore the embedded JPEG number? Have tried renumbering to no avail.
    has anyone resolved this issue?
    This is now the second big Problem with using Apple's Appeture with NO apparent FIX...
    Aperture has NO DIRECT way to Burn to a CD/DVD & apparently NO way to RE-SEQUENCE the numbering system????
    ANYONE... I wish APPLE would address/fix these 2 problems... LIGHTROOM I guess is next?

    Hi David,
    Coming in and whining loudly is rude.  We are all volunteers here, voluntarily sharing our expertise so that users like you can make the most of their time with Aperture.  Speaking just for myself:  although I do care about your success with software (it's why I'm here), I don't care what software you use.  If you want to use Lightroom, do so, and post your questions in an appropriate forum.
    Burning files to a CD is a file operation done at the system level (it is built into OS X).  Aperture lets your create sharable image-format files from your Images.  You then use OS X's tools to burn those files to a CD.  Iirc, you can set up a "Burn Folder" in Finder, into which you can export files created from your Images, and with a single click burn your CD.
    Naming the files you create by exporting your Images can be tricky.  There are _many_ possibilities.  Some things can't be done.  Sequencing can be done in a number of ways (see Léonie's answer above).  What have you tried?  What was the result?  In what way did this differ from what you expected?

  • How can I import photos from my iPhone?

    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.

  • I lost my iPhone 5 how can recover my photos from the iCloud

    I lost my iPhone 5 how can recover my photos from the iCloud?

    The only way photos are stored in icloud is in a backup from an ios device.  This assumes that icloud backup was turned on and that camera roll was turned on.  Note that photo stream is a slightly different service that is used to sync photos from one device to another, it's not really a storage service.
    To retrieve photos that are in a backup, you need to reset a device (wipe all data from it) and perform a restore.  Note that many users have had problems getting their photos back from a backup - for one reason or another.  Remember, the suggested way of storing photos is to sync them to a computer or service like Dropbox.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your device.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

  • How can I download photos from desktop to ipad2

    How can I download photos from desktop to iPad2?

    Not sure what you mean by it seems to have not recognized photos already on iPad 2.
    There are two types of photos on your iPad 2 which are stored and handled completely separate.
    Photos captured by your iPad, photos saved from a received email or from a website, and photos imported from a digital camera or from a digital camera's SD card using the iPad Camera Connection Kit are stored completely separate from photos transferred from your computer to your iPad, which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes.
    Photos transferred from your computer are stored in the iPad's Photo Library. If you transfer a single album or folder of photos or multiple albums or folders or photos, all photos transferred from your computer will appear twice on your iPad - once in the Photo Library where all photos transferred from your computer are stored, and once in the photo album or folder selected to be transferred to your iPad. The photos are not duplicated. Photos in the albums or folders include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. This way you can view all photos transferred from your computer by selecting Photo Library, or you can view the photos in an album or folder only by selecting the album or folder.

  • How can I export photos from my iPad or iPod to my main computer or hard drive. My old computer died and I want to get my photos onto my new computer. Thanks in advance.

    HOw can I export photos from my iPad or iPod to my main computer? My old computer died with my photos on it but I want to move my photo library from my iPad or iPod to the computer I just bought. Thanks for any help you can give.

    Sorry but your iPhoto library is not on an iPad or iPod - you may have photos there (most likely low resolution copies) but not an iPhoto library - dying computers (along with software and human errors) are why you always must have a backup - now is the time to load it
