How do i scan a photo into iphoto

I have a brother DCP-7020 printer scanner and I would like to scan photos into my iphoto, how do I do this?

I don't think you can scan directly into iPhoto.  I just did a search and found this on iPhoto FAQ:
Question 10: Does iPhoto work with flatbed scanners or film scanners?
Answer: Yes. To use iPhoto with your flatbed or film scanner, simply scan your negative, slide, or print with the scanner and save the resulting files to a folder on your Mac. You can import the images directly into iPhoto with the Import command. You can also drag the folder of images directly onto the iPhoto interface and add photos that way.
I also found this thread on these forums, which does verify what I said above ... hope it helps.

  • 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.

  • Trying to scan a photo into iPhoto

    I have iPhoto 6.0.6. I cannot import a photo from my HP scanner directly into iPhoto. I must open Photoshop first, then import into Photoshop and then put on desktop, and then drag into iPhoto. I have looked into Applications -> Image Capture, and it just mentions camera, nothing about a scanner. Can anyone suggest how I can scan directly into iPhoto? Step by step if possible. Many thanks, Gerry

    Yes it is there. The following is what it looks like. I am lost from here on. What do it click on and what do I look for. Thanks, Gerry

  • Help-how do you move iphone photos into iphoto on iMac??

    I have 4,814 photos in my iphoto library (categorized into 114 events). On my iphone 4, I have 1,028 photos taken exclusively with the phone. Can someone tell me how to get all of my iphone photos into my iphoto library on my iMac?
    Thanks----

    Never mind..figured it out. Just in case anyone else is dense like me, just plug iphone into iMac, then launch iphoto. In iphoto, the iphone will be listed on the left as a device and all your iphone photos will show up to the right. Simply click import at the bottom of the screen and you're on your way.

  • I am scanning printed photos into iPhoto as jpeg files but they are not showing as jpegs and I can't move them to another document - any ideas??

    Ultimately, I am using these photos in a document I am writing and for some reason, some of the photos I have scanned in to iPhoto are not showing as jpeg files . . . the file type is blank and when I try to move them, I get a circle with a slash through it indicating NO instead of the green circle with a + indicating that the photo can be moved and dropped elsewhere.  I am using an Epson scanner and am scanning as jpeg images.  I also have an option to scan as a jpeg2000 image but am not sure of the difference in the files so continue to scan as just jpeg.  Does anybody have an idea as to  why these particular files are scanning in as jpegs but apparently there is something not registering correctly.  Could it be that they were scanned without doing an overview scan first?  I know it can't be that simple . . any help would be appreciated. 

    What scanner format settings dis you use?  Are these color photos? If they are B/W did you scan as grayscale images?  That could be the problem.  
    Are you able to open them with Preview?  If so do a Save As, select full quality and save as a jpeg with a new file name.  See if that file will import and work as intended.

  • How do I import RAW photos into iPhoto?  I cannot import RAW photos from my Olympus EPL-2 camera.  I am using iPhoto 7.1.5.

    I cannot import RAW photos from my Olympus EPL-2 camera.  I am using iPhoto 7.1.5.  I read that iPhoto has to update their system and add each camera to be able to import RAW photos from it.  If this is true, how can I let Apple know to add my camera.  Thanks in advance.

    The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
    Therefore the Raw for every camera model needs to be added individually. If yours is not supported then let them know you want it:
    iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback
    When support is added I also expect that you'll need iPhoto 09 or 11.

  • How do I move a freeze frame from iMovie 11 as a photo into iPhoto?

    In prior versions of iMovie, I could isolate a freeze frame or still from the movie clip and then move it somewhere and it would become a regular photo to be manipulated in iPhoto.  How do I do that in iMovie 11?

    First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (google MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5)
    Open MPEG Streamclip.
    In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
    Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
    In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
    In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
    Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
    You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.

  • How to scan multiple photos into separate

    I have a hp envy 5660.  I often have to scan multiple photos and on my old printer it would show them as individual files on the scan page.  I can't figure out how to do that with this printer.  I want to scan multiple photos, have them save as individual phhotos so I can print them out on 4 x 6 photo paper.  Any ideas? Thanks!

  • Problem with importing scanned photos into iPhoto

    I have an Epson scanner that scans photos into the JPEG format. However, when I try to import these photos into iPhoto I am told that the file format is incompatible with iPhoto. This is odd since photos in iPhoto ARE in JPEG format.
    Can anybody help?
    Many thanks in advance for any assistance.
    Sir Leicester

    Did you scan these photos as grayscale b/w photos? If so that's the reason. iPhoto does not support the grayscale mode when it has the *+Dot Gain 20%+* profile added to it and that's what scanners use.
    Rescan all b/w images as color and they will be accepted by iPhoto. Or you can download the Automator workflow application, Convert to JPG and Embed sRGB profile, from Toad's Cellar and drop the files onto the application. This will batch convert them to jpegs in the RGB mode with the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 color profile.
