How do I send the iPhoto events from my iMac to my iPad when the two devices are connected by USB port?

I connected my iPad to my iMac via USB port. I want to send my iPhoto events/files to my iPad. I cannot find the right instructions. It appears to me that the iPad sync only transmits data from the iPad to the iMac, but I am trying to send iPhotos from the iMac to the iPad. Do I use export or sync?

You need to use iTunes to sync photos.
Connect your iPad to your computer. Launch iTunes. Select Photos from the menu. Click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.

How can I sync my iPhoto Library from my iMac to my iPad?

How can I sync my iPhoto Library from my iMac to my iPad?

Thanks so much. As always with Apple products---it was super easy. Who would have guessed to open iTunes?
Thanks again for the magic first step!

How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process?

How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process? The source Macbook (OS 10.4.11 and iPhoto 6.0.6 (3.2.2.)) is with my husband in Germany, the target MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5, iPhoto 11) is with me in Japan. Thanks for your help.

I copied the iPhoto Library to a CD and from there to the new MacBook
If you copied the library to the CD via the Finder it would be no different than the methods Terence suggested. If you used the Share ➙ Burn menu option from inside iDVD you'll get a mini library that has to be accessed from the open library and the events/alubums copied into the destination library. Not the same as the other methods.
The Share ➙ Burn method is no longer supported with iPhoto 9 and later.

How do i transfer my iphoto events to an external hard drive and have the pictures remain within their original events?

How do i transfer my iphoto events to an external hard drive and have the pictures remain within their original events? Every time i try it splits up all of my pictures one by one. You'd think you'd be able to just drag and drop the event, but no such luck. Help!!

What version of iPhtoo do you have?
To export the photos in an event use the file menu == export command - see the user tip on exporting for the available options
TO use your iPhoto library on an external drive
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

How do I export an iPhoto slideshow from my iMac to my iBook?

How do I export an iPhoto slideshow from my iMac to my iBook?

For the slideshow in the form of an Quicktime movie just export the slideshow via the export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window
and select the size to be created
If you want to have the slideshow in your iBook's iPhoto Library as it is in your iMac's library you'll need to copy the entire library from your iMac to your iBook.
A 3rd option is to export the photos used in the slideshow to a folder on the Desktop, copy that folder to the iBook, import into the iBooks library and recreate the slideshow.

How do i transfer the same video from my phone to my ipad with the same id account

How do i transfer the same video from my phone to my ipad with the same Apple ID .

Your question doesn't make a lot of sense without a little more information. You can't transfer a video from the phone to the iPad by connecting the devices. There are WiFi transfer apps that will let you send a video from one device to another one. I get the feeling that isn't what you are really asking though because that has absolutely nothing to do with your Apple ID.
If you want to download the same purchased movie to the iPad that you downloaded to the phone, go to the purchased tab of the iTunes Store on the iPad. Tap the Movies Button. Tap Not on this iPad. Find the movie and tP the cloud icon next to the movie icon and start downloading.
You must be signed into the same ID on the iPad that you bought the movie with on the iPhone.

How can I get my ical events from my iMac to my iPhone? Anything I entered into ical on my iPhone will transfer to ical on iMac when plugged in, but not vice versa.

How can I get my ical events from my iMac to my iPhone? Anything I entered into ical on my iPhone will transfer to ical on iMac when plugged in, but not vice versa. I think I have changed my iPhone (after looking at similar questions) to iCloud, but it's still not syncing.

You need to sign into your iCloud account on your Mac, and check the Calendar option. System Preferences>iCloud, sign on your iCloud account, check the apps you want to sync with your device.

How do I get a .mov file from my iMac to my iPad?

How do I get a .mov file from my iMac to my iPad?

Hi Mike in CoS,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
What app did you use to create the .mov file? Apps like iMove or Final Cut Pro X have options to Share to iTunes to create a compatible version for the iPad. If you don't have the option to export the file again, then try the steps outlined in this article:
iTunes: Videos may be unable to sync to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1497
Here is some more general information about syncing videos:

I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Can you send files via bluetooth from a imac to an ipad mini

Just purchased an ipad mini and was wanting to transfer some pictures via bluetooth from my Imac to my Ipad mini? Is this possible?
They are paired but when it goes to transfer files, it says connection lost. Is there another way of transfering files from the computer to the ipad mini?
Any help is much appreciated.

No, Bluetooth on the iPad is aimed at devices such as keyboards and heapphones : supported Bluetooth profiles.
You can sync photos to the iPad via your comptuer's iTunes. Connect and select your iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (with iTunes 11 you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders/albums to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
There are also third-party iPad apps such as Simple Transfer which allow you to copy photos to (and from) the iPad via your wifi network.
For documents you can use the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.

I use Time Machine to back up my iMac. How can I copy some iPhoto events from my external hard drive to my MacBook?

I back up my iMac on my external hard drive. When trying to copy the iPhoto Library onto my MacBook, I get the message "Cannot use TM backup as main library". I don't even see an option to choose certain Events to copy. Is there any way I can choose particular Events in iPhoto to copy to my MacBook? How can I get the photos on my MacBook?

If you're on Leopard or Snow Leopard, or Lion with iPhoto '08 or earlier, see the gray box at the end of Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #15.
If not, you cannot restore individual photos; just the entire iPhoto library. A workaround is to restore it to an alternate location, such as your desktop, then export the selected photos from there. See the pink box in the same article.

How do I copy just 1 album from my iMac to my iPad mini? I already have many albums there, but do NOT want to sync. don't want All of my pix there.

how do I add just 1 more album to my iPad mini from my iMac (10.8)?

You still have to sync the photos. Just select the photo albums that you want to sync to the iPad. You can include as many albums as you want and remove whichever ones you don't want to sync.
Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
Select the folder from which you want to sync your photos - usually iPhoto on a Mac
Click on all of the albums that you want to include in the sync
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
Any albums that you don't include in the sync preferences will be removed when you sync. So if you want to keep the albums that are already on the iPad, make sure that stay selected to sync.
If you are running iTunes 11 and do not see the sidebar and the iPad name under the devices heading - go to View>Show Sidebar from the menu at the top.
