How could I backup my iPhoto 08 photo library so it can be view in iPhoto 5

I have a 24" iMac with iLife 08 and a 12" iBook G4 with iLive 5 and I´ll like to view my photos when I´m out. I know it is time to by a new MacBook, but I´m on a budget.
Thanks for the advise

oh... I do have a copy of iLife 08 but dont allow me to install it on my iBook. Every where I read it says is a problem with iMovie that needs at least a G5. How could I install only iPhoto from the iLive 08 DVD

  • How do you backup a large photo library?

    My photos library hits 14,000 this month, what's the best way to backup? I have a 250GB Lacie D2 external drive and dvd for my routine backup. I don't want to back up the same old picture every month, know what I mean? Please share you idea..... thanks Alex

    Use a back up utility that will do incremental back ups - Chronosync or DejaVu are two - but there are many others: search on MacUpdate

  • How do I re-download my iphoto library if I can no longer find iphoto on my desktop or in my finder without loosing all of my photos?

    How do I re-download my iphoto library if I can no longer find iphoto on my desktop or in my finder without loosing all of my photos?

    How did you install it in the first place? If it came with your Mac, and the Mac didn't come with Lion installed, then reinstall iLife from the Applications disc that was in the box. If you no longer have that disc, you'll have to order a replacement from Apple customer service. Either that, or restore the iPhoto application from your backups.
    If you got iPhoto from the App Store, you can download it again by launching the App Store application.

  • How do I get my existing photo library from iPhoto to Photoshop?

    How do I get my existing photo library from iPhoto to Photoshop?

    Hello MWWWB,
    Unlike iPhoto, Photoshop is only an editor. It does not store or organize images. In iPhoto preferences, you can choose Photoshop as an editor. You will then get a choice when you double click on an iPhoto thumbnail to use iPhoto or Photoshop to make edits. But Photoshop does not have a library to store images like iPhoto.
    You may want to use Adobe Bridge or Lightroom to help name and organize your pictures. You can Export your iPhoto Library to a folder and manage the exported images there.
    Personally, I hate the arcane manner iPhoto stores and organizes images. I use it only for photos from my iPhone.

  • How do I transfer pictures from Photo library to iPhoto library?

    How do I transfer pictures from Photo library to iPhoto library?

    You do not export to IPhoto - you export to the desktop and then import from there into iPhoto - then delete form the desktop
    two separate steps
    [1] Export from Photos and [2] import into iPhoto

    The memory on my MAC is full. It holds 4GB of RAM of which 79GB are photos. I would like to back up my photos to an external drive but just do not know how. I do not wish to use time machine. How do I back up my photo library, then delete them from my MAC to free up that 79GB? Thank you.

    Hi
    Just to clarify a couple of points in your post.
    RAM (memory) is different from hard drive space. You have 4GB of RAM, but that has no bearing on the amount of drive space you have, of which we know that 79GB are photos.
    If those photos are in iPhoto, you should be able to move the entire iPhoto Library, from the Pictures folder, to your external hard drive. You can just drag and drop. Do not have iPhoto open while you're doing this. Once it's done, you can double-click on the moved iPhoto Library file to associate it with iPhoto, so that the app remembers where the library is for next time.
    One more thing. When you move a file to a different location, and then delete the original, you don't have a backup. You still only have one copy. So if that external drive dies, you will lose all your photos. Time Machine is a very good way to prevent this from happening. You should dedicate a different drive for Time Machine backups.

  • Need to backup and remove photo library form my iphone.  This library was previously backup on a hard drive that crashed.  So these photos are only in the photo library and not in the camera roll.  If I do a full backup, it only takes the camera roll.

    So this is a 2 part question:
    1) how to I backup the Photo Library to my new hard drive (as the last one was unrecoverable but previously backed up)
    2) how do I remove the Photo Library form my phone (preferably after backup in item 1)
    Thanks, Janis

    Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer.  As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
    You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you.  I'm sure you'll pay, however.
    Let this be a very important lesson learned.
    Best.

  • Why aren't photos in iPhoto photo library showing up in iPhoto camera roll?

    Hi,
    I downloaded all the photos on my Camera Roll on my iPhone into my AirBook computer because when I went to take a photo today with my iPhone it told me I had no space left.  But, now there are 300 photos in Photo Library that never showed up in Camera Roll and I can't download into my AirBook.  Those photos are just sitting in Photo Library in my phone.  How do I download them into my AirBook AND why did they not show up in the Camera Roll on my iPhone?
    Thanks!
    Caitlin

    The photos are likely already on your MacBook Air in the iPhoto app there, which I assume you probably have.
    iPhoto on your Mac houses the photo library.
    Photos do not transfer to the Camera Roll on your iPhone (with very few exceptions).  They get transferred from the Camera Roll to your photo library.  You can then clean them off the Camera Roll.
    When you sync the iPhone using iTunes, you can instruct iTunes how to sync your photos.  If, for example, you do not want all the photos in the photo library on your iPhone, that is how to keep them on your computer but not your iPhone.

  • Older (tiger) cd photo library shows no pics when opened in iPhoto 11 (Mt. Lion)

    older (tiger) cd photo library shows no pics when opened in iPhoto 11 (Mt. Lion) how do i get to view those pics ?...thanx

    That library was created by iPhoto via Share ➙ Burn menu, correct?  It's old enough that you may have to drag that library to the desktop and open it with the Finder.  Then drag the subfolders from the Originals folder into your open iPhoto 9 library window to import.

    Download the current version.
    Install it.

    How to make more albums in photo library?

    If you do not have iOS 5, you have to use subfolders in your one photo syncing folder. You can have one level of folders in the syncing folder and each folder is an album.
    With iOS 5 you can create albums in the Photo app.

  • How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library

    How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library in iPhone 3G 16 giga?

    The only way to delete photos from the photo library is by the same way the photos were transferred to your iPhone - via the iTunes sync process.
    Are you saying a photo or all photos transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process are duplicated in your iPhone's Photo Library without being duplicated in the folder on your computer where these photos are stored?

  • I downloaded yosemite and the new version of photos and now i can not find my iPhotos

    I downloaded yosemite and the new photos.  now i can not find my iPhotos.  It won't let me open the old app and it says that its not compatible with yosemite.  HELP!  how do I retrieve my old photos??

    iPhotos has been replaced with a new app called Photos. If it completed migrating your iPhoto Library, all your images are now also in Photos Library(Events are now Albums in a folder named iPhoto Events.
    iPhoto and iPhoto Library remain on your drive and work as before.

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is you library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
