How do I transfer photos from my older MacbookAir to my new iMac?

Copy them to an external hard drive or flash drive. Then restore them from the external drive to the new computer.
Or if you use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant they will be transferred along with everything else in your Home folder.
Connect the two to your local network, enable File Sharing, copy the files over the network. You may need to do this in order to use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant.

How do you transfer photos from an old iPhone to your new one??

Photos in your camera roll are included in the iPhone backup, & restoring your new phone from the backup of your old phone, as described here, will restore these photos to your new phone:

Photos synced to your phone are not included in any iPhone backup. If you're talking about photos that were synced to your old phone, just sync them to your new phone.

How do you transfer photos from an older version of Aperture to 2.1?

I used to have Aperture 1.5, and then got 2.0 when it came out.
I still have 1.5(or whatever the exact version is) on my computer separate from 2.1, and with it, all of its photos.
How do I transfer them to the current Aperture, which I frequently use?
Thanks in advance for replies.

I was about to post to ask Paul what advantage there is in Exporting/Importing Projects over simply converting the Library as kbeat suggests.
Then I reread the original post and realized that what you are trying to do is combine the two libraries.
If that's the case, Paul has given you the answer.

My sister has a windows based laptop that has data and pictures stored in it. How does she transfer that to her new iMac? Or, can she? I will also be purchasing a MacBook Pro in a few months and will want to transfer some pictures from an old windows laptop onto that and will face the same problem.

How do I transfer data from a hard drive to my new Imac

Hello,
First off, I don't know much about computers, so please forgive me if I sound stupid... Anyways, I had a PowerMac G5 that took a dump. The hard drive is still good and so is the info on it. I want to transfer the pictures, itunes library, and word docs to my new Imac. I thought I had this info backed up to EXTERNAL HD, but I think I did it wrong and the info is not there. Is there a way to transfer the info from my old G5 HD to my new Imac. Genius Bar guy already removed my HD from my G5. My G5 will not start up past the grey apple screen. Thanks for any help you can provide.

What Larry means is buy something similar to OWC Neptune 3.5" Oxford 934 FireWire 400 (1394A) Enclosure Kit for SATA Hard Drives up to 1TB. All Cables Included http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/NP35SFW/ and then connect your old hard drive to your new iMac with FireWire 400. Mount the disk and transfer the data.
A good solution for only $48 USD.

How do I transfer photos from my external HD to my new MacBook Pro?

I can't find the photos in my HD but I used Time Machine so they have to be there somewhere... All I can find is under Users --> Pictures --> iPhoto Library, which I can't upload/import into my new iPhoto. (I used to use a regular MacBook and now I'm on a MacBook Pro, so it should be compatible...)

If you used TM to backup your iPhoto library you must us TM to restore it to the pictures folder and launch iPhoto
If you simply copied it to the EHD then just copy it back to the pictures folder and launch iPhoto

Import them to your computer and then sync them to the iPad, or use a WiFi transfer app.

How do i transfer photos from icloud to ipad

How do i transfer photos from icloud to ipad

For older photos you could just create a new "Shared Photo Stream" via iCloud on your iPhone and share it with yourself or you could use another cloud storage service (like Dropbox or Flickr etc.) or you could transfer them via iTunes on a PC/Mac.

How can I transfer photos from ipad 1 to pc

I have an ipad 1 - ios 5.1.1
I want to transfer the photos on the ipad to a windows 8 pc.
Should be a really simple operation - yes? wrong.
After visiting 30+ webpages, downloading various 3rd party software (and deleting them again) - I am still unable to transfer photos from my ipad to a windows pc.
I connect the ipad 1 to a pc using cable.
PC shows ipad.
Then you get the option to import photos (Which 20+ websites just repeat).
Contained in the DCIM Folder is 2 thumbnail photos. Yes - just 2. Two.
Stored on the ipad is nearly 3,000 photo's. NOT 2!
So how do you move photos from an ipad to PC?
Next problem.
Someone recommended using Syncios - wonderful.
All photos found.
All photos copied - except they are copied as thumbnails.
It would seem that ipad stores your photos as a thumbnail - but when you email the photo the true size is sent. (Thumbnail is 11kb - when I attach the same photo to an email it shows it as 1.1mb)
So - apart from creating and sending 3000 emails - so that I can transfer photos at their original resolution - HOW DO YOU TRANSFER PHOTOS FROM IPAD 1 TO A PC.
Apple really couldn't have made a 30second operation more difficult - or deliberately impossible.
There is NO option to do this via iTunes.
I can transfer photos from a PC to iPad using iTunes - but not the other way around.
So - please - does anyone have a degree in astro-physics that can explain how a person is supposed to transfer full sized photos, that are stored as thumbnails - from an iPAD 1 to a Win 8 pc?
ps... and yes I am irritated. This has taken me 2 days so far, and still unable.
pps... and no, I really don't need people posting - oh yes I have the same problem... I need answers.

HHow did the photos get on your iPad? since the original iPad does not have a camera, the photos were either received in emails, copied from the web or synced from your computer. If they were copied from emails or the web they should be available to copy off the iPad using whatever Camera or image capture application you have on your computer. Connect your iPad, start the application and transfer the photos.
if the photos were synced from your computer, they should still be on the computer used to sync from.

How can I transfer photos from an IPhone 5 to an IPad 2 using a cable. I have tried using the lightning to firewire adapter with my current lead but this only seems to allow a download from the Ipad to the Iphone and not the other way around.

The devices are not designed for transfer of that kind. Use Photo Stream as suggested by another poster, or transfer photos to your computer (a good idea anyway since they will be lost if your device needs to be reset), then use iTunes to sync them to the other devices.

How can I transfer photos from my iphone to my computer without emailing each one to myself

how can I transfer photos from my iphone to my computer without emailing each one to myself, and I thought they would be in icloud but I can't find them

Pics taken with the iphone are imported to your computer as with any other digital camera ( as explained in the manual).
Pics synced to your iphone from your computer should still be on the computer.

How can you transfer photos from one phone to another

How can you transfer photos from phone to phone

If you are trying to get all the photos from an old phone to your new phone, you could sync the old phone which would create a backup containing your Camera Roll. Then connect the new phone and follow the prompts to register and name your new phone. You will then be given the choice of restoring data to your new phone from a backup of the old phone. This will replace any existing data on the new phone with the data from the backup so it's really the best option if the other phone is new.
Another option would be to connect the phone to your computer and import your photos to iPhoto or the My Pictures folder. Then you could sync the other phone and under the Photos tab in iTunes you could choose the folders/albums of pictures you want on the phone. They will not be in the Camera Roll, but they will be on the phone.
I hope this helps.
