How do I save photos from Picmonkey into iPhoto??

I'm editing pics on Picmonkey but when I go to save them to my computer, there is no option to save them back into it's folder in iPhoto. There must be a way right?? Help please, new to Mac!

Of course it is. But on a PC you're using the file manager to manage your photos. You can do this on a Mac too. But you're using iPhoto which is a database, which works differently. If you don't want that, use the file manager. Or use an editor actually on your machine...
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • How do I consolidate photos from Finder into iPhoto Library?

    I would like to tidy up my photos on my iMac to save space and ensure that all is secure.
    Iam using iPhoto 08 on my iMac v10.8.5. My preference is to consolidate all my photos into my iphoto library so that I can manage my collection through iPhoto. I seem to have the same photos showing in Finder -> pictures as I do when I open iphoto. In addition photo files are also stored under My Pictures folder too. I'm guessing they are managed by iphoto but I don't know why they are saving in Finder as well as the iphoto library. I generally upload photos from either an iPhone or iPad. 
    I have the iphoto preferences set to 'copy items to the iPhoto library' so I'm not sure why they also appear in replicated album structures in Finder and as single images in Finder. Do I just import them again and delete from Finder? Any suggestions? (same for my .MOV files too).
    I've taken a screen shot but don't know how to add to this post.

    Thanks Larry. I tested that for one photo by deleting (placing in trash) one image and then reopening iphoto to make sure the photo was still there and it was.
    However, I was going to select all the images to delete them noticed that the first 4 are not showing in iPhoto (I search by image number as well as sort by image title to double check). These are photos of my daughter at school so would not want to accidentally delete them.
    Is there a way to compare what is in iphoto and what is in Finder? Any suggestions on how to ensure I don't miss any? I'm guessing I just import them all and then run the duplicate cleaner file (not perfect but I just deleted 1.5 GB of photos that were duplicated i iphoto). My operating system is old (2008) and needs all the grunt it can get.
    Not sure if this may be related but iPhoto seems to randomly duplicate my photos and movies within iPhoto and I have no idea why this is happening. The photo and its title is repeated twice but the .jpg is dropped off the file title. Does the same for movies and drops the .MOV from the title when duplicating.
    Regards, Suzanna
    PS I have just tried to import those 4 photos and they are in iPhoto but the photo name is date and time instead of image number as in Finder. That will make it really hard to find?

  • How do i import photos from dropbox into iphoto?

    I have several photos in Dropbox that I am trying to import into iPhoto and use in a iPhoto book.  Is there a way to do this and bring in batch photos at one time?

    To get them into iPhoto you must Import them from a physical location on your drive. If they are "in the cloud" them you need to download them to your computer such as the Desktop. Or they may be in a folder in the Dropbox folder in your Home folder or in your Pictures folder.

  • How do I restore photos from backup into iPhoto 2?

    I tried to create a backup of only one roll of photos in my Photo Library, but when I dragged it to an external hard drive, instead of copying it, it moved it, so that afterwards I could no longer use iPhoto in my computer to open any of the pictures in that roll (the number of the roll still shows in my Photo Library, but when I click on it, it appears empty). I then tried to restore the roll by copying it from the external hard drive into the Library/Pictures folder in my computer, but the pictures still do not show up in iPhoto (I'm using version 2). What am I doing wrong?

    There must be more to it than that. Simply dragging images from the iPhoto application window does not move (or remove) files. The only way I can reproduce what you've described is to command-drag files or folders directly from the iPhoto Library folder using the Finder. Anyway, if your photo database wasn't corrupted at first, then dragging files directly back into the iPhoto Library folder would have done it for sure.
    To rebuild your photo database, start iPhoto while holding the shift+option keys. Don't release them until you're prompted to confirm the intent to rebuild. Click "Yes", then click "Save".
    Check iPhoto Help to see how to safely import/export pictures, and how to backup your iPhoto Library.

  • How do you save photos from import or Photo Stream to an album?

    How do you save photos from import or photo stream to an album?  I have a MacBook Air (which keeps telling me my start-up disk is full) and I am trying to organize photos so there aren't duplicates and triples.  I have photos in events, last import, photos and albums....I feel like they are all taking up space.  If I move a photo from photo stream to an album, then delete the photo from photo steam its deleted from the album.  That doesn't make sense to me.  There should be a way to clean up photo stream, and events, and last import by putting photos into albums.  Even more bizarre; I imported photos from my 4S, and only a fraction of them transferred over. 
    I am completely lost.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you!
    sarah

    and I am trying to organize photos so there aren't duplicates and triples.  I have photos in events, last import, photos and albums....I feel like they are all taking up space.
    Sarah,
    Only the photos you are seeing in the events and the Photo Stream will take up space. iPhoto stores each photo only one. After you import it, it will be assigned to one event.
    Then you can use it in many albums and projects. Using the photo this way will only reference the one single copy of the photo in the event. The albums don't store the photos and do not require additional space. If you delete a photo from an event, it will be removed from all albums that have been using the this photos.
    What you are seing are not actually duplicate photos but different ways to access the same photos.
    The "Last event" is the same event as the last one you imported. It is there for a quick access to your recently imported photos.  Photos is a quick access to all photos in your library as an endless stream of photos. These are also no duplicates.
    So if you want to save space and delete photos, do that by browsing your events. Deleting a photo from an event will delete the original image file and remove the photo from all albums, books, and other products. You have only duplicate photos, if you are seing the same photo twice in an event.
    Even more bizarre; I imported photos from my 4S, and only a fraction of them transferred over.
    That is a different problem, but it may be related to to fact that you need to free space.
    If you get a warning, that the system needs space, don't do anything but update the backup of your mac and move files to an external disk to free space.
    It is not save to keep working, when the system is running out of space.
    How much free space do you have? Anything below 15GB free space is really critical.

  • How do I save photos from email to the photo library?

    How do I save photos from email to the photo library? I've seen an online demo of users that hold their finger or thumb over the image for a few seconds and a "save photo" window option appears. That doesn't work on my 6-month old iphone. It's version 1.1.4 (4a102) ???? Help! Anybody with an answer?

    Never mind. I figured out the 2.0 update. My system wasn't updating I-tunes...and the I-phone update option window was hidden behind some other system information. I figured it out. The download, install and re-synch took about an hour. Lots of horror stories out there about people trying to activate their new I-phones. Glad this worked for me!

  • How do I save photos from messenger

    How can I save photos from messenger

    I'm sorry, but are you referring to another app other than the native Messages App? I'm thinking that is what you are referring to, since I'm not aware of any setting like that in the native Messages app. If that is the case, it could be that you do not have Messages set to access the Camera Roll in Privacy. The app may not have access to the Camera Roll. Check that in Settings>Privacy and see if the Messages app is listed there. I'm guessing that you are referring to Facebook Messenger?
