How can i transfer photos from my macbook to my imac without altering their quality

I am trying to transfer photos from my macbook to my imac, with the same version og iphoto, but it seems that the imac is having trouble to give me clean photos, as if it was putting 2 images, one on the other.... any suggestion for a clean and quick transfer ? and to what may cause that the photos seems blurry ?
thanks
Lau

Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

    how can i transfer photos from my macbook to regular USB plugged in it

    For a few photos, you can select them in the iPhoto library then drag and drop them to the USB key. This is a copy, so the originals will remain in iPhoto.
    To move the whole library, use the procedure described here:

    how can I transfer photos from my iphone to my computer without emailing each one to myself, and I thought they would be in icloud but I can't find them

    Pics taken with the iphone are imported to your computer as with any other digital camera ( as explained in the manual).
    Pics synced to your iphone from your computer should still be on the computer.

  • How can i transfer photos from my macbook to my camera in OSX Lion?

    I am having difficulty transferring some of my photos from my MacBook to my camera. When the camera is connected and i open the DCIM folder then the CASIO100 folder the photos are there. But when i eject the camera the photos aren't on the camera

    I am not familiar with your camera; mine uses SDHC memory cards, so I simply insert the card into either the card slot (if available) or a card reader and then manually move pics to the card. Once I insert it back into the camera, the pics are there.
    You might try to drag 'n drop (copy) the pics from your Mac into the DCIM folder - that would be my first try.

  • How can i transfer music from my macbook to my iphone without my music library contents are all erased?

    i've been trying to transfer music from my macbook to my iphone but it deletes all the music i have on my iphone then adds the music from the macbook what can i do so i ADD music to my iphone without having anything deleted!

    The answer is, "you don't".
    Music other than that purchased from the iTunes store had to be synced to the device using iTunes on a computer. The media should still exist on that computer. She can use the computer to sync the music to the new device.
    An iPad or iPhone is NOT a backup device. In order to set it up to sync to a new computer were she to replace hers, the media on the device would have to be erased before anything could be synced to it. Media synced to the device can not be synced back to a computer (without purchasing 3rd party software). Without a computer and iTunes, it's not possible to transfer media from one iDevice to another, even with 3rd party software.

  • How can I transfer photos from my macbook to my emac

    Hi, I used my Macbook while travelling and downloaded about 6000 photos. I am now home and wish to transfer part of these photos to my desk top eMac. How can i do this quickly?Thanks

    If your MacBook has Firewire, use Target Disk Mode on the eMac:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    Otherwise, you probably will be much better getting a hard drive that combines both USB and Firewire interfaces from http://www.macsales.com/ and put the photos on there.  If your eMac has USB 2, a Flash drive isn't that slow.  By the way, eMacs are not iMacs.  You posted to the eMac forum.  In the future when asking about eMac issues, please post to the link below:

  • How can you transfer photos from iPod Nano to new iMac?

    My friend has an ipod nano. Here's a photo, not sure what gen. it is.
    He had a PC that no longer works and has no data left on it. His original iPod Photos were stored on that PC that no longer works.
    He has since purchased an iMac and is running Lion OS X, all up to date.
    The problem: He NO LONGER has the ORIGINAL PHOTOS, only the ones on his iPod Nano, that used to work with his PC, which no longer functions.
    He would like to copy the photos stored on his iPod Nano, to his new iMac.
    Using finder, he went to Device, then clicked PHOTOS and dragged the folder to his desktop. It said there was 1.43 GB of content.
    However, all that was saved to the desktop was (see other photo) Photo Cache, Photo Database and Thumbs. There are no photos at all. What is he doing wrong? Thanks.

    There are a number 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

  • How can I transfer photos from my iPad to memory stick without a computer? No internet connection.

    Transferring photos from iPad to memory stick.

    That's the truth.
    I went shopping yesterday and bought a £25 lightning adapter to SD card for my iPad. Today I find out I cannot perform the extremely simplistic task of copying my required photos to my SD card using the adapter ...
    Any other tablet or phone would do this.
    I now face an uphill struggle to get these photos off of the iPad and onto an SD card before going to the camera shop to get them printed on photo paper. I am due at my terminally ill mothers house in 1hour20mins. It will take me 1 hour to drive to her town. I then need to get to the camera shop and print these pictures off - I reckon at least 30mins to park and print them. And this does not factor in the wasted time and money I have already spent this morning getting nowhere with this useless adapter. It does not factor in the time wasted now trying to get these photos off my iPad, on to a computer, then on to an SD card - then leaving the house............
    I think me and Android are going to be very good friends.

  • 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 transfer pictures from my MacBook Pro to my iPad mini please?

    How can I transfer pictures from my MacBook Pro to my iPad mini please?

    If you are on iTunes 11 on your Mac then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar, which might make it easier to navigate and may instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

  • How do I transfer photos from my MacBook Pro to my iMac?

    How do I transfer photos from my MacBook Pro to my iMac?

    You can go into your pictures folder in your user folder on your old computer and copy the iPhoto Library file (should be fairly large) either directly to the new computer or to an external drive.  Copy the old iPhoto Library over to the new pictures folder on your new computer.  The old iPhoto Library should overwrite the iPhoto Library on your new machine.  When you fire up iPhoto on your new machine, everything should be there in the same form as it was on your old machine.

    The devices are not designed for transfer of that kind.  Use Photo Stream as suggested by another poster, or transfer photos to your computer (a good idea anyway since they will be lost if your device needs to be reset), then use iTunes to sync them to the other devices.

  • How can you transfer photos from one phone to another

    How can you transfer photos from phone to phone

    If you are trying to get all the photos from an old phone to your new phone, you could sync the old phone which would create a backup containing your Camera Roll. Then connect the new phone and follow the prompts to register and name your new phone. You will then be given the choice of restoring data to your new phone from a backup of the old phone. This will replace any existing data on the new phone with the data from the backup so it's really the best option if the other phone is new.
    Another option would be to connect the phone to your computer and import your photos to iPhoto or the My Pictures folder. Then you could sync the other phone and under the Photos tab in iTunes you could choose the folders/albums of pictures you want on the phone. They will not be in the Camera Roll, but they will be on the phone.
    I hope this helps.
