How can you upload folders into Photos?

I am missing a critical feature: being able to upload pictures and corresponding folders into Photos. I have a vast number of pictures organized in folders. when importing these pictures, the folders and folder names disappear and pictures get randomly sorted as many of the older pictures have no geo tagging or time stamp.
in the past this was no problem as iPhoto as well as folder synchronization between OS X and I OS allowed to import folders.
this feature must be reintroduced, if not years of organizing thousands of pictures have been in vain. Or has anybody found a workaround?

You can't import folders into Photos.
Import a folders worth at a time and use Last import to create a new album from them.

  • Can you upload a single photo to facebook?

    Whenever I highlight a photo and click the Facebook button it wants to create and upload the entire project. How can you upload just the photo you are working on?

    It keeps asking me if I want to create a Facebook Album called "name of project". It seems to want to use all the photos in the project, not just the one I have highlit.
    Also how do I publish a single photo to an already existing facebook album? FB Uploader for Aperture could do all of these things. I could highlight a few shots, and stick them in a pre-existing facebook album. Problem is it's 32 bit.

  • How can you upload photos to FaceBook from iPhoto without using the sync where is deleted in iPhoto it will be deleted in FaceBook

    How can you upload photos from iPhoto to FaceBook without having the sync where if you delete from iPhoto you delete

    I think you have to have the files on your HD. So either put them in iPhoto or copy them to a folder in Finder, and from there you can upload to Facebook.

    How can you just back up photos with Time Machine. 2000 of them

    I am a photographer and trying to backup my photos. I would be using Seagate Backup Plus USB 3.0 , 1TB.
    I am very computer illeriate so please dumb it down so I understand.
    Hook up the Seagate drive (don't use their software) to the Mac and a TimeMachine window should appear, click yes and let it work for hours until completed. Hook up occassionally and it will backup your entire boot drive.
    If you need to format the drive, open Disk Utiltiy in your Applications > Utilities folder, click on your new drive on the left and Partition, 1, Option GUID and OS X Extended Journaled as the format and click apply.
    You should get another external drive, this will be your storage drive for a duplicate of all your photo's.
    Connect it to the Mac, format it the same way as above, then you need to drag and drop your photo's to it.
    If your photo's are in iPhoto, then inside your Pictures folder is a iPhoto Library, drag and drop it onto the icon of the external storage drive every time you want to make a backup.
    The first time you drag and drop, it will copy it.
    The next time you do it, it will ask if you want to replace the iPhoto Library with the new one.
    If your sure you want to do this, then say YES.
    If you want to make multiple dated backups of the iPhoto Library, double click on the external hard drive icon and it will open into a window.
    Use the Finder > New Folder and you can click on the name and change the type to date, then drag the more recent copy of iPhoto Library to that folder.
    This way you can have more than one copy of the iPhoto Library on the external storage drive at the same time as they are in folders. This way you can create a archive of dated photo's.
    Good Luck, and take a class or have someone teach you about basic OS X user interface.

  • How can you upload an image to MYSQL using php?

    Ok this is a joint thread with one of my other ones because no one else  was posting on it, so I did not get what I needed, so, How can you  upload an image to mysql so when some one logs on to my site, they see  or can upload there own avatar, now there are loads of problems with  this, 1) many people don't know how, 2) It's not every day you try to  encode a image into mysql, 3) Letting people upload images into mysql  can cause traffic problem with people trying to log in. So that's it.

    Uploading images into MySQL is a bad idea, for more reasons than you mention. You should store the images in a directory on the server instead. But if you want to learn the hard way, here is the method:
    The mysql data type must be blob.
    The form enctype must be multipart, like this: enctype="multipart/form-data"
    The form input field myst be type file, like this: <input type="file" name="upload"/>
    Here is example code that prepares the variable $photodata to be inserted into the database.
      $uploadfile = $_FILES['upload']['tmp_name'];
      $photoname = $_FILES['upload']['name'];
      $uploadtype = $_FILES['upload']['type'];
      if ($uploadfile != "") {
    $tempfile = fopen($uploadfile, 'rb');
    $filesize=filesize($uploadfile);
    $width=getimagesize($uploadfile);
    $widthx=$width[0];
    $heightx=$width[1];
    if (($widthx > 102) or (heightx > 135)){
    $image_too_big = " but the image size was too large and was not submitted.";
    } else {
    $photodata = fread($tempfile, filesize($uploadfile));
    $photodata = addslashes($photodata);

  • How can I convert imovie into photo's

    How can I convert imovie into photo's

    For iMovie 11, you will need to download a free tool called MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5. (Google it). This is a very handy tool to have if you make videos.
    In iMovie, select the clip that contains the frame that you want. Right-click on the clip and select Reveal in Finder.
    You should see the clip highlighted in the Finder. Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip. Move the playhead to the frame you want. Then click FILE/EXPORT FRAME. You can choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG.

  • We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube?

    We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube? The Moodle upload interface is expecting a file selection dialog box like windows or OSX. I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.
    Thanks!

    It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
    The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

    There are several options to choose from its either you will buy directly from itunes which go directly to movie. Another option is that convert first your movie to mpeg4 by using any converter software, then after converted drga the file (movie) to itunes library. Next thing you will do is to click your account (your ipad device) then look movie tabs then check sync movies.

  • How do you create folders in photo's

    In an IPOD4 (or IPhone for that matter) how do you create folders within Photo's to segregate your pictures in to meanigfull collections, rather than just random bunches.
    Thanks

    Bummer - seems like wasted effort - to move all the photo's to a computer, delete then from the IPOD/IPHONE,  organize them, and then move back to IPOD/IPHONE. Oh well, is what it is.
    Thanks

  • How can we upload file into to OCS Content repository when we are in Apex

    We have installed the Oracle Application Express 2.2.1 into the OCS 10.1.2 database.
    The Apex authentication is set to operate with OCS SSO.
    We have made a form. There is a browse button on the form. We would like if the uploaded file appeared in the OCS content database repository as
    opposed to Apex document repository.
    To put it into another word, how can we upload the file into to OCS Content repository when we are in Apex.
    Generally speaking, how can we reach content from Apex?
    We have found many java based examples to use content sdk, but how can we use them with Apex? We believe that
    content hasn't got plsql interface.
    i would highly appreciate it if you sent me a full example program.
