Welcome to the Apple Community.
Are these videos in your camera roll or purchases made from iTunes.

I want to move pictures from my mac to iCloud. Then I want to erase those pictures from my mac and leave them only in iCloud.. Can I do it?

I want to move pictures from my mac to iCloud.com, then I want to erase those pictures from my mac and leave them only in iCloud.. Can I do it?? It looks like it's not possible because if I erase the picture from my mac, then they'll be erased automatically in my iCloud account too!!

If you are using iCloud Photo Library and delete them from any device they will be deleted from iCloud and from all devices using iCloud Photo Library. If you want to reduce the storage space required on your Mac the following quote from iCloud Photo Library FAQ - Apple Support may help:
Can I use iCloud Photo Library to save space on my device?
iCloud Photo Library automatically keeps all your photos and videos in the original, high-resolution version. Follow these steps to choose how you store your photos and videos on your device:
In iOS, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera, then select a storage setting.
In OS X, click Photos > Preferences > iCloud, then select a storage setting.
If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. All of your original, full-resolution photos and videos are stored in iCloud while device-size versions are kept on your device. You can download the original photos and videos over Wi-Fi or cellular when you need them.
If you turn on Download Originals, iCloud Photo Library will keep your original, full-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and on your device. Download Originals is the default setting for iOS devices with the free 5 GB storage plan and for all Mac devices.

How do you move iPhoto from one Mac to another

I recently purchased the new Macbook Pro two weeks ago. I have iPhoto 11 on my old Mac (OS Lion, also). I imported them, but I am wondering if there's any way to do this and maintain my "events folders?" I have 10 years of photos, and they all moved over, but there is no organization. Is there a way to move them over (I did this from an external hard drive) and maintain the same "events folders" that they are organized in? I had them organized by month and year. (Example - 2012 - March, 2012 - Feb).

You want to move the Library:
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

How do I forward eMail from my Mac to iCloud and my iPad

Been using a Mac for many years, but earlier today I activated my first iOS device, an iPad. Am running OS X 10.8.2 and I have an iCloud account. I have multiple eMail accounts on my Mac. How do I get my Mac to automatically forward eMail to iCloud so that it's available for my iPad to receive it?
With kind regards,

The way I have it set up is > Setup the email accounts on your iPad as you have them setup on you Mac, that way they will be delivered to both. On my iMac I have it set to remove emails from server but on the iPad I do not. I reciev all of my emails on both, but if I delete any from my iMac they are removed from my iPad automaticlly. (that way I do not have so much trouble when I get a lot of emails nneded to be deleted from my iPad.

How do i move files from pc to icloud?

I have 2 questions, first of all how do I move files from my PC to icloud? Secondly how do I access icloud from my PC so I can view and grab files in case I need them? I have about 7 GB of photos and videos from my iphone4 that I want to move to icloud and I just bought 100GB of icloud storage so I can store stuff on the cloud. I am sorry for the newbie question.

What is it then? How and what exactly do i use it for? My i pad says there is not enough storage available so i have purchased more in i cloud. I now want to save some TV programmes and films to i cloud to free up some space but don't know how to... When you are told there is not enough space to download you are prompted to go to settings and to purchase more storage - so it is not unreasonable to assume that this will solve the problem - or am I missing something here? Or is this just a way for apple to get money out of me?
If this is not what it is meant for then what is it meant for? Is it just space to back up files to? If so then surely what i need is stored there - so i can delete the TV programmes from my i pad and grab them from i cloud later?
Am rather perplexed...

How can I Move photos from Mac computer to iPhone

I have no problem moving photos from the iPhone to my Mac using 'Image Capture.'
Now, I would like to know how to move pictures from my Mac to the iPhone. I can pretty well imagine that I first need to set the pixel dimensions of whatever I'm going to transfer to the iPhone to the iPhone standard. To do that, I will take an unaltered iPhone pic on my Mac and read the dimensions to get the standard. Past that point I'm not sure what is the best way to move the picture onto the iPhone.
Any recommendations on how to do this?
TIA,
Ken

Here is what I found doing a search of similar topics:
To sync photos from a folder on your hard disk to your device
Drag the images you want into a folder on your computer. If you want images to appear in separate photo albums on your device, create folders inside the main folder and drag images into the new folders.
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left.
Choose "Sync photos from."
Select Choose Folder from the pop-up menu and choose your main image folder.

How do I move photos from iPhoto to new PC or Mac?

We are in the market for a new computer. I want a Mac (of course!) but my husband and our budget are more comfortable with a PC. My question is how do we move photos from our old Mac to a new comp? Can it be done via a network? I assume it is easier from Mac to Mac. We do not have an external hard drive and our old comp is very outdated. The version of iPhoto used is 6.0.6 and OS is OS X, 10.4.11. We cannot do any further updating to either the application or OS. We do have both an iPod and iPad but neither can even be synced with this current computer! Any help is appreciated. Thanks

For a PC select all photos in iPhoto and export to a desktop folder. Move that folder to the PC
For a Mac copy the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the pictures folder of the new Mac
The connection can be a network, a cable or even an external hard drive you move to the new system or a DVD if it will hold everything

This is my first mac i have 2 hard drives installed how do i move photos or documents from one to the other

i just bought my first imac i have 2 seperate drives on it. how do i move photos and documents from one to the other.

This is our resident iPhoto guru, Terence Devlin's, advice:
You can move your iPhoto Library to an external or secondary internal 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.

how do i move photos in iPhoto for iPad from album to album ?

If you want to move a photo, then you need to use a PC or a Mac. In iPad, you can copy, but this is just a link to the original. It's something I've been wanting to do for a while...but it looks like it needs another photo program to do it.
