  • How can I copy a iPhoto album onto a flashdrive along with the photo information?

    How can i copy an iPhoto album to a flashdrive along with photo information, in order to send it to a friend please?

    File -> Export. In the resulting dialogue you can choose to export the Original. Or, if you choose to export a Jpeg you can get the edited version. Check the boxes at 'Keywords and Descriptions' and 'Places Information' and you'll get the metadata, if that's what you mean by "photo information"

  • How do I movie an iphoto album onto a memory card.

    I need step by step instructions on how to put an iphoto album or pic's from my library onto a memory card for a digital picture frame. Also how to make sure the pics are all the same size and will fit the full frame. I need this asap please, It's for my son-in-law in Iraq. Thank you for you time. Miss Kathy

    Thank you so much for your help. I am pretty illiterate when it comes to computers. That is why I love my apple. I can usually figure things out because apple makes it simple. However now that I have the pic's to a folder on my desktop, per your great directions, how do I get the folder to the memory card?
    Thanks, misskathy

    How to get photos from iPhoto back onto a SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with built in SD card slot. I have tried "Export" but this does not work.

    It's best to export the photos to a folder and then drag the folder onto the memory card.  Memory cards are usually formatted for PCs, FAT 32, which doesn't permit more than a limited number of files in the root directory. Putting the photos in a folder gets around that limitation.

  • How to I copy my iTunes library onto an SD card in the same format such as artists, albums playlists etc on a Mac?

    HHi,
    i am trying to copy my iTunes library onto an SD card so that I can put it in my Audi A4 with the MMI. Is there any way of doing the transfer on iTunes but keeping the structure of iTunes, such as with albums, artists, playlists etc?
    THanks in advane

    Files are not copied to drives in a particular order. How they appear on a card depends upon how you have your computer set to display them. If I view a card with files and I have clicked the column header for "file modified date" then it will display in that order. The only time the copying of the files across to a flash drive will influence how your music appears in your player is if the player uses the file names to display the file order, with possibly some extra structure added using folders.  If it reads the data inside the files then it will display them pretty much as iTunes would use them and how exactly they are displayed will depend upon how the player actually works.  The other way (as I have already said) is if the player uses a special file to tell it how it should order the files on the display. When I last rented a new car it simple read the data inside the files as iTunes does and if a humble Ford Focus can do that then I suspect that is how Audi does it.  If it is not doing this then maybe your files do not contain the data, or your simply have not read the special manual for the MMI that I see on Audi's website it provides to its owners and discovered how to set the view order.
    Since nobody has seen to it I have been bestowed with an Audi you may have to wait for another Audi owner to answer this, or perhaps do some investigating yourself.  If you type "Audi MMI A4" into a web search it will lead you to a bunch of videos on Audi's web site on how to use the MMI. My computer is old and my connection speed is slow so I absolutely hate instructional videos online and I will let you plow through them to see if any provide the information you need.
    My understanding from Phil0124 statement is it is simply telling you to copy all the files in the Media folder to the card.
    When I cut and paste the iTunes library onto my SD card, it put all of songs in a strange order. It had all of some number 1 from all the albums, then song 2, etc. It didn't keep them in album / artist setup. For some reason it won't copy over in the same structure.
    Is this how you are seeing it when viewed on your computer, or is this how you are seeing it in the MMI?  If that is how you are seeing it on the computer, forget it, or do as Phil01234 says and drag across folders from the main Media folder in the iTunes folder.
    By the way, on a Mac to copy files from one drive to another you simply drag them, no copy and paste.

  • How do i copy a iphoto album to a disc?

    Hi Y'all,  I tried highlighting the ' album'  then burning. What I get is the order of the pictures that is in the 'events' .  I want the photos organized the way they are arranged in the 'album'.  iPhoto '11,  Lion OS,  iMac.  All up to date.  Thanks./

    Files do not have an order - the program that displays them sorts according to the users settings - often an alpha sort
    So to control the order that files will be displayed you have to know the setting that the user looking at the files will use and then create the files so that sore will work - if the display order is Alpha then you can use the sequential names option whtn exporting

  • I just backed up my photos by copying my iPhoto Library onto an external drive. Now the Library on my MacBook won't open. I can only open the photos if the external is plugged in. How can I resolve this issue?

    I just backed up my photos by copying my iPhoto Library onto an external drive. Now the Library on my MacBook won't open. I can only open the photos if the external is plugged in. How can I resolve this issue?

    Exactly what did you do?
    The correct steps are
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
    My guess is that that you have not switched iphoto to use the external drive yet - opttion launch and select libary

  • How do I save an IPhoto library onto a new hard drive while it's open? It is a miracle I got it open, and it has refused to be copied the usual way (by dragging its icon to destination drive).  i want to save those photos!

    How do I save an IPhoto library onto a new hard drive while library is open? It is a miracle I got it open, and it has refused to be copied the usual way (by dragging its icon to destination drive).  i want to save those photos!

    My external Lacie Hard drive that contains the IPhoto library is a "locked volume."  Wow, now it is suddenly letting me copy it. I dragged the library's icon to the new destination (a 3T hard drive) and it is working so far. 
    I have also had problems copying my IMovie events from this drive, whose data I'm trying to save.  It reaches a certain video and stops.  I will delete that video and try again.

  • I use Time Machine to back up my iMac.  How can I copy some iPhoto events from my external hard drive to my MacBook?

    I back up my iMac on my external hard drive.  When trying to copy the iPhoto Library onto my MacBook, I get the message "Cannot use TM backup as main library".  I don't even see an option to choose certain Events to copy.  Is there any way I can choose particular Events in iPhoto to copy to my MacBook?  How can I get the photos on my MacBook?

    If you're on Leopard or Snow Leopard, or Lion with iPhoto '08 or earlier, see the gray box at the end of Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #15.
    If not, you cannot restore individual photos; just the entire iPhoto library.  A workaround is to restore it to an alternate location, such as your desktop, then export the selected photos from there.  See the pink box in the same article.

  • How to export iPhoto Album in iMAC and have similar folder structure(with Timestamps) which can be viewed in finder

    How to export iPhoto Album in iMAC and have similar folder structure(with Timestamps) which can be viewed in finder
    In simple terms, I wanted to view the photos in Windows system, similar strcture of iPhotos

    If you want to copy all of your photos to a Windows machine and have them in folders representing the iPhoto Events the were in quickly and easily just do the following:
    1  - open the library with the Finder as shown in this screenshot:
    2 - COPY the Originals/Masters folder to the Desktop.
    3 - copy the Originals/Masters folder to the Windows machine.
    This will give you all of your original image file in their Event folder on the Windows machine.
    NOTE:  With iPhoto 8 or newer the Event folders in the Masters folder will be titled by date (EXIF) if imported from a camera.  If imported from a folder the event folder will have the same title as the source folder.  If imported singularly or in a group without a folder the title will be a date, either the EXIF date or import date.
    With iPhoto 7 (08) and earlier the Event folders in the Originals folder will have the same title as the Event has in the library.
    This method would be quicker but not provide the additional metadata you might have added in iPhoto like keywords, titles, descriptions that exporting out of iPhoto with Format=JPEG and the checkboxes selected to include keywords, titles, places, etc, checked.

  • How do i transfer existing iphoto albums to a new computer

    how do i transfer existing iphoto albums to a new computer?
    thanks

    Are you asking about transfering iPhoto Libraries from one Mac to another Mac? Or about transferring iPhoto albums from an IOS device to a computer? And what is your iPhoto version?
    If you are talking about your Mac, simply transfer the iPhoto Library to the new computer. You can copy it using the network, by copying to a portable disk, or by connecting your old mac to the new mac in target disk mode. After copying the iPhoto Library to your Home folder on the new mac, double click it to open it in iPhoto and to point iPhoto to it.
    If you are asking about transfering albums from an IOS device; the albums you create on your IOS device are not synced back to your computer. You share the photos by adding them to the Photo Stream, creating shared Photo streams, sending them by email, or publishing web journals.

  • I own a MacBook Pro and an iMac. How can I copy my iPhoto library from my MacBook to the iMac?

    I own a 13" MacBook Pro and a 27" iMac and I have different iPhoto libraries for each one of them.
    How can I copy the iPhoto library from the MacBook to the iMac without losing the pictures I have on the iMac library?
    Is it possible to merge the libraries?
    Can I do this without using an external HDD? (e.g. connecting them through an ethernet cable?)
    Thanks for your help!

    1. By eirher a: renaming one of the Libraries or b: copying them to another folder
    2. 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
    3. Yes.

  • How do you copy your iphoto library to ext. hard drive?

    I am sorry to ask this lame question, but: How do you copy your iPhoto library to an external hard drive, just to back it up? I'm confused, because of three things: a) I can't seem to find, in iPhoto pref's, where you select what the "path" is to the library; b) in the iPhoto library folder on my computer (which is NOT on my boot drive, but a different internal drive..) the newest "year" folder in there says 2005, yet we have imported many newly-taken photos for the last 3 years, AND c) in the user>Pictures folder there is a "file" called iPhoto Library, but I can't quite figure out exactly what that is, what it does, etc.
    So, I apologize, but if someone can help me figure what I would like to think should be a very simple backup, I would be grateful. Thank you very much.

    I am sorry to ask this lame question, but: How do you copy your iPhoto library to an external hard drive, just to back it up?
    Drag it to the external drive
    a) I can't seem to find, in iPhoto pref's, where you select what the "path" is to the library;
    There not one - you change the path by launching iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key and using the select library option to repoint to a different libary - however you would not do this to a backup library - it would just be a copy
    b) in the iPhoto library folder on my computer (which is NOT on my boot drive, but a different internal drive..) the newest "year" folder in there says 2005, yet we have imported many newly-taken photos for the last 3 years,
    This is probably an unused older library - a backup for a previous version
    c) in the user>Pictures folder there is a "file" called iPhoto Library, but I can't quite figure out exactly what that is,
    That probably is your iPhoto library and it is probably not a file but a Unix style "package"
    Launch iPhoto and in events view select a photo and right click (control click) on it and select the show file option to see the path to the currently active library - I find the column view the easiest to see the path

    That's a proprietary interface.
    Odds are there is no adapter. Ask Sony.
