How do I get photos from my pc to my iCloud Photo Library?

How can I get all my pictures on iCloud from my pc? (Windows 8)or at least selected ones that I want to share in an album? I have iCloud photo Library turned on on both my iPhone and iPad and I have iCloud for windows installed. I have direct iTunes installed updates of iOS 8.3 on all my iOS devices and iTunes 12.1.2.27

Another way.
You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import.
 Cheers, Tom

Help...How to I get files from my external hard drive into my Library!

I ran out of space on my PC's hard drive, so I bought an external drive, and copied everything over there. I deleted the files on my PC's hard drive, and changed the setting in iTunes to look for files on the external drive. The trouble is, there are no files in my library now. If I search for an individual song and double click on it, it starts to play, and shows up in my iTunes library.
Is there a quick way to get all the songs into my library?
Many thanks,

I advised to uncheck the option to copy files to iTunes Music Folder when adding to library simply because it creates 2 copies of a given file.
If you have your files on the external drive, and you uncheck that option, and then add the files into the library, no copies are going to be made, so you don't want to delete anything.
If you want to see if the files are on your external, I'd suggest looking at it through Windows Explorer. Just open up My Computer and open up the drive icon representing your external. If you see the files on there, and they're on your internal as well, you can go ahead and delete them from whichever volume you don't want them stored on.
If the files are on your local drive and you want to move them to the external, you can do this with iTunes. Click Edit > Preferences, click the Advanced tab, click the General tab beneath it. Set the iTunes Music folder location to your external drive (where you want the files to end up). Make sure that the option to copy files IS CHECKED. Then, click OK. Then, from the Advanced menu, click on Consolidate Library. This will basically create a copy of every file in your library in the destination specified as your iTunes Music folder location.
Sorry if all this adds to the confusion. Sometimes it's a little difficult to know what options affect what actions within iTunes. Post back if you have any other questions and I'll do my best to help you out.

How to transfer old photos from iMac to iPad using iCloud Photo Library

iMac with Yosemite, iPad with iOS 8.1. New photos taken on any device are shared automatically with all other devices. But, older photos on iMac are not being shared with iPad or iPhone. The options to synch selected photos on iMac with iPad don't seem to be there any more now that iCloud Photo Library is enabled on iPad.
I imagine that iCloud Photo Library's capabilities only apply to new photos. Is there a way to move old photos over for viewing on other devices?

John,
You can share selected photos to your Photo Stream, if you enable the iCloud features, or create an album of the selected photos and transfer them using iTunes Photo sync.
For iCloud see: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ, iCloud: Using and troubleshooting Shared Photo Streams
For iTunes see: iTunes: Syncing photos
Or, simply mail them in high quality and save them from your Mail to your camera roll, if it are only a few photos.
Regards
Léonie

How do you get two apple ID's to share iCloud, photo stream?

We both have iphone's with iCloud, and two macbooks with iCloud, and want to be able to share the photostream, sync each of our calanders on both computers?
I don't think i did a good job asking that question, but does anyone have any ideas on how to get multiple apple ID's to sync on a macbook pro or two, but remain separate on the iphone?
thanks

Yes. You can sync multipl iDevices on the same computer using the same Apple ID. You can each have different configurations of apps, books, music, etc. or have identical configurations. In this way, however, your common data - contacts, mail, calendar will be the same on both iDevices.
The Apple ID doesn't distinguish one phone from another, only how the phone will sync to a computer. The Apple ID is how iTunes knows to which computer a phone syncs. And, the Apple ID determines who is the registered owner of downloaded and purchased items via iTunes.

HT4910 How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream?

How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream? It seems it is supposed to do it automatically , but it does not.

Photos are normally uploaded automatically as long as you are connected to wifi, have the camera app closed and have at least 20% battery life remaining. (It doesn't require a manual iCloud backup first.)
If yours are working, if you haven't already done so, try turning off photo stream, then turn it back on.
Sometimes people have issues getting photo stream to work on their home wifi, even if other devices in the home seem to work fine. To troubleshoot this as a possible cause, some things to try include:
Power-cycling your router (unplug for 15 seconds, then plug back in), then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings, then rejoin your wifi network.
See if there is a firmware update available for your router.
Change the DNS settings in your router to Google's Public DNS (see https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using)
As a diagnostic step, go to a public wifi hotspot and take a photo, then wait a minute or so to see if it appears in your My Photo Stream album on your phone. If it does, this confirms that the problem is with your home wifi.

How do I get songs from iPod(video) to iTunes(7 and using VISTA).

How do I get songs from iPod(video) to iTunes(i'm using iTunes7 and Vista).
I don't have the disc, cause i can't find it. But my computer downloaded the ipod, it just cant find the files?
i've been looking through the topics for the past hour and none of them helped. Maybe i'm stupid i dont really know, but i've restored my old computer a couple times and i found a post and it helped both times. now i can't find it anymore.
THIS IS THE ONE I'VE BEEN SEEING AND IT DOESN'T HELP ME ONE BIT:
Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.
Can someone give me a link, or tell me one that shows step by step.

Here is a way of doing it, for another take on this, search the forum for posts by Zevoneer.
Copy from iPod to PC
It is important not to allow your iPod to sync with an empty library. If it is set to synchronise automatically you will get a message saying your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to sync – it is important to press cancel as syncing with an empty library erases all music from your iPod.
You can also prevent auto sync by holding down shift & ctrl as you plug in your iPod and keeping the keys held down until the iPod appears in iTunes.
Once you are connected, you need to set your iPod to manage music manually.

If you have an iPod with iTunes Store purchases on it, you can use it to copy your purchases to other authorized computers.

However this is not allowed for other music.
This MacMuse tip tells you how to copy music from your iPod using Windows Explorer, but it is a bit fiddly:

Otherwise you can use third party software to manage the transfer, there are a variety of programs out there, some free and some that will copy ratings and counts as well as the music files. Here is a selection, check them out and see what suits you.

How do I get music from my iPod to computer

My desktop computer crashed and needed to be re-formatted. Luckily, I had backed up all of my downloaded music on an external hard drive. Unfortunately, I did not have all of the music from CD's on my iTunes backed up.
So in other words, I have an iPod with ALL of my songs...both downloaded and from music CD's. I have a computer with my downloaded songs. How can I get music (from cd's) from my iPod back to my computer? I no longer have all of the music CD's to just put them back on.

iTunes will only let you copy your purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

How do i get pictures from iphone to mac?

How do i get pictures from iphone to mac?

If you want your photos to end up in iPhoto, just do a normal sync. If you don't want to use iPhoto, or if you just want to put your phone photos in a normal visible folder on the desktop, luckily when you plug in the iPhone a Mac sees it like a camera or card reader. This means the iPhone will show up in common applications that have an import-from-camera feature. I've copied photos off my iPhone using Apple Image Capture, PhoneView, and Adobe Lightroom, for example.

While you are viewing a photo in Preview, and want to import it into iPhoto, select the document icon in the toolbar of the preview window and drag this icon onto the iPhoto icon in the Dock or in the applications folder.

Getting photos from my iDisk to my iPad (Photos)

I have loaded a batch of photos from my camera up to my iDisk. How can I get them down onto my iPad, into the Photos app?
I have wifi - I do not have my notebook (or iTunes) with me. I have the iDisk app on my iPad and it will let me open and view the photo files ... but not copy them onto the iPad.
This doesn't seem like it should be difficult, but I can't figure it out.

Have you tried pressing on the photo with your finger to see if a save photo dialog box opens? I do not have the iDisk app, but the iPad usually will allow saving a photo it is displaying.

How do I get images from Aperture into print shop for mac?

Friends,
I have Print Shop for Mac and Aperture. How do I get images from Aperture into Print Shop? I'musing managed images with previews. Is there any option besides exporting to the desktop and importing?
Thanks!
Steve

if you have previews turned on in Aperture and they're all genereated, you can simply drag-n-drop them into any application (just about). drag-n-drop is essentially the same as copy/paste as long as the application is setup to accept "drops" onto its windows.
otherwise, if you're running Leopard (10.5) as your version of Mac OS X, when you import (or whatever it is in PrintShop), you should get a file selection dialog. from here, scroll down the left-hand side bar set of icons. near the bottom is a group called "Media". click on the triangle to open the group, choose Photos, and from here you should see an Aperture icon. click this and you'll see your whole library (or at least the portion of it that you have previews generated for. select the photo you want and viola!
