How do I export my edited images from my iMac to an external hard drive?  Only the originals transfer.

How do I export edited images from my iMac Lightroom 5 programme to an external hard drive?  It seems that only the originals transfer.

In the export dialog don't choose original. Choose specific export settings for your purpose e.g. for a website, emailing or for printing.
You can choose jpeg, tiff etc and also select the size you need, sharpening and quality - click image below which shows an example of exporting jpegs in the sRGB color space.

  • How Do I Transfer Movies From My iMac To My External Hard Drive?

    Silly question, how do i transfer movies from my iMac to my external hard drive? I have read a few blogs about it but it is not very clear.
    If i change the format from - Windows NT File System (NTFS) to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) will it erase everything of my hard drive?

    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!
    Thanks

    Please tell us what Mac you have and what version of OS X.

  • I had to reformat my OSX 10.5.8 and i can't restore my emails from my time machine backup from an external hard drive - only the latest (post backup) time machine back ups are available to restore. Please can any help

    I had to reformat my OSX 10.5.8 and I can't restore my emails from my time machine backup from an external hard drive - only the latest (post backup) time machine back ups are available to restore. Please can any help? I can find the mail folder in my libraries, but the Restore Button is grayed out

    OSX treats the reformatted drive as a different one; it's the same as replacing it, and the old one is no longer connected.
    See #E3 in  Time Machine - Troubleshooting to see and restore from the "old" drive.
    And, you may not want to restore via the Finder; see the blue box in #15 of  Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.

  • How can I move my iTunes movies from my computer to an external hard drive? After I copy them to the drive, do I just delete them from my computer? How will I be able to watch them again?

    Hi,
    I have a MacBook Air (July 2013) with the latest Mavericks OS X. I also have the lastest version of iTunes.
    My computer has very little memory left, so I wanted to free some up. When I looked, movies were taking up a considerable amount of space. I want to move them from my computer, but still be able to watch them if I want to later. I haven't purchased an external drive yet, because I didn't know what size to get. I also have a lot of Photoshop files that are taking up a lot of memory, so I might put some of those on too. Would you recommend a 1 TB one or bigger?
    Can you take me through the exact process of moving my iTunes movies to the external drive? I understand where to find the files (My Name<Music<iTunes Media<Movies), but am stuck from there. Do I simply drag them to the external drive and then delete them? Will this delete them from my iTunes library? How will I go about watching them again? I assumed that I would just plug the external hard drive in, click in the movie and watch. Is it this simple? I only want to move my movies, otherwise I would follow tutorials for backing up the library. Once you back up the movies, can you delete them from your computer?
    Thanks,
    Molly

    iTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first.  Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one?  The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless).  To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes.  To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
    There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
    Realize what you are talking about is not "backup".  Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded.

  • How do I transfer downloaded movies from my iMac to my external hard drive?

    Hi folks
    I am trying to transfer movies downloaded to my iMac 7 on to my external hard drive. How do I go about this. Many thanks in advance

    No not an error message. Whilst I am transferring the document there is "o" with a strike through it and this symbol is carried along with the file that I am transferring (if ya know what I mean). It may actually be my actual hard drive. For example,  I tried to rename the hard drive and right clicked on it and went to the "get info" tab and,  where I should be able to change the title of the hard drive,  it is greyed out and cannot change the name.
    But I am more concerned with transferring files to my hard drive to be honest.
    Thanks

  • I want to move my music and photos to an external hard drive from my iMac. What external hard drive should I get?

    I want to move my music and photos to an external hard drive from my iMac.  What kind of hard drive should I get?  Will it remove it from iMac and only be on external hard drive?

    How to correctly move your media:
    iTunes: How to move the library to an EHD
    iPhoto: How to move the Library to an EHD
    It is important that the External Hard Drive is formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled).
    And also make sure that all is working to your Satisfaction before Deleting anything Off your Mac.

  • I can not transfer files and data from macbook pro to my external hard drive, i can not transfer files and data from macbook pro to my external hard drive , so what should i do ?

    i have an external hard disk but whenever i tried to transfer any file or data from macbook to this ext.disk its failed before that i used to have another hard drive with same problem ,then i thought may  be this hard drive is not support mac then i bought a new one which supports mac but still i have same problem what should i do ?

    Ok.
    Go into Disk Utility, and make sure you select your external hard drive.
    There should be 4 tabs, one being erase. I have taken a screenshot to show you what it should be set to (obviously name it what you like), and set the format to Mac OSX Extended (Journaled) as per the example below & after double checking your in the right drive, you can hit erase. And you're done! *hopefully*

  • I want to create for the first time ever an iPhoto library on my Mac Mini from all of my seperate external hard drives over the years. Instead of filling my Mac Mini hard drive space with all of the pics can I import it to a seperate Apple hard drive.

    I want to creat for the first time on my Mac Mini an iPhoto library. I have many seperate hard drives with pics I want to import but are concerned I will fill the hard drive with pics alone. Can I install the pics on one larg (1TB) external apple hard drive and use iPhoto functions still with the pics being installed on a seperate drive from the iPhoto OS?

    This is our resident iPhoto guru, Terence Devlin's, advice:
    You can move your iPhoto Library to an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Once that is done you can import directly into the iPhoto library on the external HD.

  • In Photos, Why Cant this be simple,but how do I Export a organized backup for my photos to a external hard drive.  I tried exporting them, but now I have to go through thousands of pics

    Ok, I need to reboot my Mac, want to back up my photos to a external drive  in new Photos.  I tried exporting them, but its thousands of pics that I have to go through.  Want them to be in specific folders.  Very time consuming.  Do I try making albums ? is there a software?

    You can go about this in two ways:s
    1 - copy the Photos Library to an external HD that is formatted OS X Extended (journaled) or use Time Machine or one of the backup apps that Larry mentioned.
    2 - Click on the All Photos album in the sidebar, select all of the photos by typing Command+A and exporting the to the EHD using the File ➙ Export Unmodified Original... menu option with the following settings:
    This will give you a folder for each Moment (like iPhoto's Events) with the name of the Moment as a folder title which will be the date of that Moment:
    The first method as described buy Larry is the better one as it will keep your organizational efforts, keywords, titles, projects, etc., intact.

  • How do you restore your playlists on iTunes after moving data to external hard drive and the playlists are deleted?

    after moving everything to an external hard drive, is there a way to restore the playlists you've already created if they're not there anymore?

    If you moved the iTunes folder to your external drive, you moved the iTunes library file - iTunes Library.itl, which is in that folder.
    You need to tell iTunes where it is, start iTunes with the shift key held down and iTunes should ask you to choose a library.

  • How do you set a security password to control access to an external hard drive?

    how do you set a security password to control access to an external hard drive?

    The only way to reliably protect data, especially on an external hard drive, is to encrypt it.  Permissions don't have to be respected.  One way to encrypt data is to create an encrypted sparse bundle disk image with Disk Utility.  See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1578
    (Be sure to use the 256-bit encryption.)
    Alternately, you could use some whole-disk encryption, though I have no experience with any of the software for doing that.  You could try the following:

    I don't know that I would recommend the product being advertised inappropriately by keynesis.

  • How do I export video files from iPhoto to a backup external hard drive for safekeeping?

    How do I export video files from iPhoto to a backup external hard drive for safekeeping?  Each time I try, the video will not play from the external hard drive.

    Use the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = Original.  That should get the original video file exported.  Try to export one to the Desktop first and open it with Quicktime Player.  If all goes well export the rest to a folder on the EHD. How is the EHD formatted?  It should be OS X Extended (journaled).

  • How do I export an iPhoto slideshow from my iMac to my iBook?

    How do I export an iPhoto slideshow from my iMac to my iBook?

    For the slideshow in the form of an Quicktime movie just export the slideshow via the export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window
    and select the size to be created
    If you want to have the slideshow in your iBook's iPhoto Library as it is in your iMac's library you'll need to copy the entire library from your iMac to your iBook. 
    A 3rd option is to export the photos used in the slideshow to a folder on the Desktop, copy that folder to the iBook, import into the iBooks library and recreate the slideshow.

    -= Changing the application used to open all files of a certain kind (written with reference to OSX 10.4 but may not have changed) =-
    1) In a Finder window highlight a file of the kind you want to change the application to open that kind of file.
    2) While that file is highlighted, select File > Get Info or press command (apple or propeller icon) + i to get a file information window.
    3) In the lower part of the info window there is an "open with" menu with a list of applications.
    4) If your application is already in the box then it is the default application for opening that kind of file and you don't need to do anything more.  Close the get info window.
    5) If the application showing in the menu is not the one with which you wish to open the file then select a new application. If your application does not appear there then select the "other..." and track down the application (usually in the Applications folder at the main level of the computer).
    6) If you wish to change all files of this type to open with this application in future, make sure the "change all" button is selected.
    7) Close the get info window.

  • How do i move a file from my mac to an external hard drive?, how do i move a file from my mac to an external hard drive?

    how do i move a file or folder from my mac book pro to an external hard drive? the hard drive is formatted just for the mac.
    i backpacking and taking loads of RAW pics so i need to get them off my mac onto the hard drive. it seems i have to copy them, only some times then some pics dont work!!!!!!!! pain in the arse!!! im quite new to the mac and loving it, but on the old p.c it was easy as!!!!!!!!!!!! help please

    You just drag them and drop them where you want them to go.  If you don't want to keep the original on the source drive, you'll want to delete it afterwards.
    What do you mean "some pics don't work?"  Don't work how?
