How do I get a photo into Lightroom if I first opened it in Photoshop for editing

Sometimes I open an image (not in the Lightroom catalog) directly into Photoshop for editing and when I'm done would like to finish editing it in Lightroom. What's the best way to do that?

Any reason why you're not opening it in Lightroom first? RAW converter? "Typical" workflow would be to open everything in Lightroom, do basic development, and then kick it over to Photoshop as needed. Lightroom tracks it the whole time, so when you save your file in Photoshop, so long as you don't rename it, Lightroom will keep track of it as an alternate to the original.

I have alot of loose photos at home (old) and I would love to make a bunch of iphoto books and make the pages like whole page collages? How do I get my photos into iphoto in order to do this? Can I make a DVD at the drugstore and add them to iphoto?

You can make the collages easily if you have iWork. Just open a letter sized page in landscape mode and drag the photos onto the page, rotate and postiion as necessary. Then do a Print ➙ PDF ➙ Save PDF to iPhoto to get a 200 dpi jpeg version of the Pages page into iPhoto. From there you can add it to your book and use a blank page with the option to have an image as the backbround.
If you have a 3rd party image editor that supports layers you can create the collage with it.

How do you get Raw images form a Canon 60D to open up on Photoshop Elements 9!

How do you get Raw images form a Canon 60D to open up on Photoshop Elements 9! I tried downloading the Adobe Camera Raw 6.2 update and Elements is not recognizing the file to install!

Go to Help>Updates in the editor and do it that way instead.

How do I get my photos into my hard drive?

I have 800 photos in the library of the iPhoto application. But when I go to my user file on my hard drive and open the pictures file it is empty. Therefore none of them are saved with Time Machine. Shouldn't there be two sets of m photos: 1 in the iPhoto app and one on my hard drive? If so, how do I get the pbotos into my hard drive so that they are in both places. I want them to be where they are backed up in time machine but don't know how to get them into my user file.
I hope this makes sense....I am not even sure of the terminology I'm using!

If the Pictures folder is empty - no iPhoto Library - then open iPhoto and select iPhoto prefs>Advanced - there is a check box Importing - if it is not selected then this might be why there is nothing in the Pictures folder.
When iPhoto imports or adds content to the iPhoto library it is given the same name as the orginal file. iPhoto is making a copy which it stores on your HD. The default location for iPhoto libraries is in User Account>Pictures>iPhoto Library. This is where the actual files are kept. If you select the iPhoto Library icon and 'control' - click you will get a dialog. From that list choose 'Show Package Contents' - in there you will find where iPhoto has stored the file. You can also get to the file by selecting the file in iPhoto when it is open and from the file menu select 'Reveal in Finder' - In previous versions of iPhoto you could get to the file using 'control' (right) -click.
Anyhow - you want to make sure your library is backed up. I am not a user of TM - I use SuperDuper to clone my HD - regardless you need to tell TM which items to back up - as long as you include the Pictures folder then your iPhoto files (not the app) will be backed up.

I have a photo PDF slide show in an email. How do I get the photos into my camera roll on iPad ?

I have a photo slide show PDF file in an email. How to I transfer the photos in my camera roll on my iPad?

Well I guess you can press cmd + shift + 3 to take a picture of your whole screen or cmd + shift + 4 to take a picture of a selected area, that will create a file called "screen shot yyyy-mm-dd at hh:mm:ss.jpg" on your desktop then you just select those files and drag them into iPhoto.

How to get a photo into photo browser

how do you get a photo into the photo browser box

I have same problem. I could only see a fraction of my project photos if I browse the Aperture lbrary. It is the same problem when I sync the aperture photos to my iPhone or iPad. I still cannot solve it but I know a way to go around it for your iMovie to see the pictures so that you can work on your iMovie.
Here is the work around:
Export the photos from your album to your hard disk and re-import into your iPhoto. Now you should be able to see those photos that you want to work on in iMovie when you browse your iPhot library.

I am adding new photos to my PC windows 7 desktop but they are not syncing to my ipad. how can i get these photos to sync

I am adding new photos to my PC windows 7 desktop but they are not syncing to my ipad when I sync the Ipad. How can I get these photos into my Ipad?

Skydiver.
you and I know that your answer works because that is how I sync my ipad. I don't have a mac, just a PC with itunes. Now this guy might not even have itunes and is using Windows Media Player or something like that.
Or maybe he just do not want his problem fixed. I read these forums and too many of the questions are just way beyond basic computer knowledge, but it seems to happen that they can never resolve a very simple problem. It makes me wonder if people just post bogus stuff.
I would like to see registration to the forums attached to the product serial number of the forum you are posting to. I bet you that the posts would drop dramatically.

How do you get your photos in to different photo albums?

How do you get your photos into different photo albums on a i phone 4

If you are willing to manage your photos in iPhoto and transfer the albums you create in iPhoto to your iPhone (using iTunes), I think you will find that an easy solution is available.
In iPhoto, locate the image that you want to insert into an album (or albums); for example, you may locate the image in an event, or it may be in one or more "Faces" categories, or it may already be in an album, etc. Then, drag the image into any album. Repeat to insert the image into other albums.
I may have misunderstood your question, or the above may not provide what you're looking for, so post again if need be.

Upgraded to Yosemite how do I get my photos from IPhoto to Photos?

I did not realize when I took the Yosemite upgrade that IPhoto would no longer work. How do I get my photos into the new Photos application?
So far no luck.

Actually... you need to hold down the "option" key while starting up Photos... Then follow the steps to select the iPhoto library... You should copy the iPhoto library to the Pictures folder (from the iPhoto folder) and it will convert it and you'll be up and running in a short bit... If your library is large, it can take quite a while to convert and load... be patient.... real patient! but it does work! This method will leave both versions useable, and at some point you'll want to delete the iPhoto stuff (to save space on the hard drive, if nothing else..) I copied my working iPhotos library onto an external hard disk, then used the "App Delete Lite" app to make an archived zip file on the same external drive.... in case I ever need to go back to the iPhotos option... It worked great!

How to get jpg photo into photoshop as jpg wt LR changes

I can not determine how to get jpg photos from Lightroom into Photoshop CS3 without using the export function. With a raw photo I can simply press "clrl e" and the raw photo is converted into a tif or psd file and sent to photoshop. That is very convenient when you have worked on the photo and wish to make additional adjustments in CS3. When I do the same process with a jpg file, it converts the file from jpg into a tif at a much larger file size then necessary. Is there a way to get a jpg file which I have worked on within Lightroom into CS3 without using the export function? Thanks, Arthur

Lee Jay, I think you are wrong this time (only)!
Arthur, to solve your problem you have to do two things:
1. In LR open preferences and activate to automatically write changes to XMP. This ensures that your JPG pictures are updated with the LR settings in the XMP container within the jpg file.
2.in PSCS3 open preferences. In the file handling section you will find the option to 'prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG files'. If this option is activated also jpg files are processed with ACR.
You asked for a way to get a jpg file into CS3 without using export. Now you have that. After you made your adjustments in LR just open the jpg in CS3 and you will see the photo with all changes you have made. I tested this with LR and CS3 beta myself it it works perfectly.

How do i get my photos to stream to my iPad in the events that were oringally created. Right now they are streaming as photos and are not grouped at all. I would like to get them back into the events that were originally created

Hi..
Thanks for the reply..
My original I Phone 5 was running IOS 6.12
My I phone 5S currently runs IOS 8..When I upgraded it, it had IOS 7 on it which made the I Photo app compatible with everything below IOS 8...( which the photo app is not compatible with ) so I just connected the I Phone 5S to my computer and thinking the new phone had IOS 7 on it that these was nothing to worry about..I thought all 900 + pictures in the photo stream would transfer but somewhere in the process, I Tunes decides to just go and install IOS 8 which requires that you run a " Photo Migration App" to transfer photos from IOS 7 & below. The problem was is that I didn't want IOS 8 on my new 5S so I thought I wouldn't have to do that part..
Anyway the phone emerged with IOS 8 on it and the only photos that remained were the ones that were actually on the phone..The 900 + I had in the stream didn't transfer because the Photos that works on IOS 7 and below isn't compatible with IOS 8..I guess you have to use the photo migration app that comes with IOS 8 & I phone 6..But I didn't ask to upgrade to IOS 8...It just did it on it's own!
I still have the I Phone 5 Back up that I did just before giving it back to Verizon but if I try to restore the I Phone 5S running IOS 8 those photos in the stream will not go back on the phone because IOS 8 isn't compatible with the I Photos" that ran on IOS 7 and below..
So I have an I Pad mini that runs IOS 7..should I try and erase it...and put that I Phone 5 backup on it and pray the photos that were in the stream come back on it so I can transfer them back to my computer...then erase the I pad mini again and restore it using it's original backup that I have on the computer and the in the cloud?
I know this sounds confusing but I'm at a loss as to what to do..This is what I found ...http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201386
but it doesn't help me..

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to a recent state.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12?

How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12? Do I restore from a backup? I have over 12,000 pics ( a good portion with multiple versions) and don't want to lose captions and metadata. Thank you in advance for your help.

If this is on the same computer just install PSE 12. It should find your old catalog and upgrade it to PSE 12. If for some reason it doesn't, then go to file>manage catalogs, find your old catalog and tell PSE 12 to convert it.
If this is a new computer, then yes, full backup and restore.

How do I get my photos from Elements 11 into a file folder.

How do I get my photos from Elemtnts 11 into a file folder. I am trying to use Blurb to make a travel book but because of the number of photos I have them in groups and want them to stay in groups for the book. Unfortunately the photos in each grouping are all over the place and will be definitely difficult and time consuming to bring into Blurb.

Thank you. I tried this before I wrote the question as the photos had just disappeared!
I was very nervous to try this again but did with some junk photos and after much trial and error - it worked! I'm not a real pro as you can tell and appreciate your help.

I my harddrive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone. How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

The external drive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone. How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

Are the photos you want to send back to your mac on your iPad, iPod, iPhone saved to the camera roll? If you have photos in other albums (not camera roll) share them to the camera roll.
Then connect your device via USB and lauch iPhoto. You will see your device as a camera in iPhoto. Import those photos like you would import from a camera.
