How do I get all Photos from iMac to MBP

My iPhoto album has several hundred pictures in several albums.  While on the road, I'd like to put them on CD's or DVD's.  Right now they are all on my iMac and I'd like to move them over to my MBP which I have with me all of the time.  It makes more sense to be able to do the disc media on the road rather than at home.  Any suggestions how I can pair the iMac to the MBP in order to get the pictures onto the MBP would be an enormous help?

Join them with a Firewire cable and then restart the iMac while holding down T so it Boots into Target Disc mode, then it will appear on the MacBook Pro Desktop as a regular volume. Then just drag the iPhoto Library across from one to the other (this would replace any Library on the MBP so if you need that rename it first)

  • How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    You can't.  iCloud is not for general file backup from a Mac. It's for backup up and syncing data between mobile devices and and Macs and  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Backup and restore overview.
    iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your (mobile) device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails
    But not from a Mac.  If you want to backup your photos and other important files I suggest you get an external hard drive and use  it with Time Machine.

  • How can I get all photos from the camera roll onto the photo stream so they will share between iphone and ipad?

    How can I get all photos from the camera roll, and all new pictures taken, to get on the photostream so they can share between iphone and ipad?

    When turning PhotoStream on with photos available in the Camera Roll, only photos captured by the iPhone or saved on the iPhone are placed in the PhotoStream.
    For all photos that were in the Camera Roll prior to turning PhotoStream on, import the photos with your computer and add the photos to your PhotoStream on your computer.

  • How do I transfer all photos from my Imac, IPhoto version 7.1.5, to another Imac, IPhoto version 9.2, but keep the two sets of photos separate

    How do I transfer all photos from my Imac, IPhoto version 7.1.5, to another Imac, IPhoto version 9.2, but keep the two sets of photos separate

    You need to clarify what you are asking.
    An iphoto installation has two major parts: 1. The application or program - that's the software and 2. The Library - that's where your actual pictures are.
    So when you say:
    I want to keep using the old Iphoto program on the new Imac.  There is already an IPhoto program on the new Imac but I do not want to add or delete from that one.
    It sounds like you want to move the application and not the Library. Most folks want to move the Library, and it makes no sense to have two versions of the application on your mac.

  • 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 had photoshop 11, i now have elements 13. how do i get the photos from elements 11 to elements 13 in one easy step

    I had elements 11 and I now have a new pc and elements 13. how do I get the photos from 11 ne easy step?

    When you open the File menu, you should have 19 options, including 'Manage catalogs, Ctrl+Maj+C'.
    All options should be available (not grayed out).
    Using the 'Manage catalogs' option should open a new dialog.
    In the white panel on the bottom you should find one or several catalogs found by the Organizer.
    In the upper right part, two buttons : Open and Convert.
    Click on 'Convert' which should open a new dialog allowing you to find the catalog to convert. The organizer should find most older catalogs in the list on the bottom. If you don't see your catalog to convert, you can tick the checkboxes to 'show previously converted catalogs' or to browse to their location.
    Highlight the catalog to convert and click the convert button.

    My IMac died,  we bought a new one . how can I get my photos from my iPad to my new computer? (iPad and iPhone are my only backups)

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - Make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
    - Restore the iPOd from that backup.

  • HT201077 My Photo Stream is no longer adding photos to my PC.  How do I get my photos from my iPhone 5 to my PC's Photo Stream?

    My Photos Stream is no longer adding photos to my PC.  How do I get my photos from my iPhone 5 ios 7.0.4 to my PC's Photo Stream?

    Hi jmy13,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Try these steps first if the Photo Stream on your PC is not updating:
    you can't connect to the Internet, iCloud Photos will not be able to send or receive updates to My Photo Stream. If necessary, troubleshoot your Internet connection on your PC, Mac, or iOS devices.
    Open the iCloud Control Panel and make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices.
    In Windows 8.1, go to the Start screen, click the down arrow in the lower-left corner, then click the iCloud app.
    In Windows 8, go to the Start screen, and click the iCloud tile.
    In Windows 7, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
    Make sure that iCloud Photos or Photo Stream is turned on in the iCloud Control Panel. Click the Options button and make sure that My Photo Stream is turned on.
    Close and reopen the iCloud Control Panel.
    Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.

  • How can I remove all photos from my iphone?

    How can I remove all photos from my iphone?

    Hi pjdemeo,
    I understand you want to delete all of the photos from your iPhone.  As a precaution, I would suggest importing the photos and videos from your iPhone into your computer.  This will give you a backup for the images, and after import you will be asked if you want to delete the photos.
    Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201302
    The iPhone User Guide has instructions for deleting photos directly from the device:
    Organize photos and videos - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphf14943e
    Delete a photo or video from Photos. Tap the Photos tab, tap the photo or video, tap , then tap Delete Photo or Delete Video. Deleted photos and videos are kept in the Recently Deleted album on iPhone, with a badge showing the remaining days until the item is permanently removed from iPhone. To delete the photo or video permanently before the days expire, tap the item, tap Delete, then tap Delete Photo or Delete Video. If you use iCloud Photo Library beta, deleted photos and videos are permanently removed from all iOS 8.1 devices that use iCloud Photo Library beta with the same Apple ID.
    Cheers,
    - Judy

  • 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.
