How do you export or attach an edited photo from iPhoto?

I have tried to use the 'current' version but it always exports or attaches the raw version.

How do you save and email an edited photo in iPhoto 08?

I've been using 08 since the beginning with no problems. I want to mail an edited photo but when I try the process fails. A normal photo mails fine, but there is no "save as" option with non-destructive editing. Surely there is a work-around.

Is this for all edited photos or just that one? If it's for all try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists.
If the problem dissappears with the new library then it's your old library that the problem. If that's the case make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

How do you export video to an external drive from iPhoto?

Hi, I have been trying to export video footage from iphoto onto an external hard drive only to find it no longer plays and is only a single image. What am I doing wrong...
Karen

Unless you exported the files using the Kind = Original option all you'll get for each item, photo or video, will be a jpeg file.
If you want to export only the videos do a search in the library for keyword = movie as iPhoto adds that keyword to all movies/videos imported. Then you can export them to a folder on the Destkop as Originals.
Or create a Smart Album like this:
Then you can select the contents of the album and export.

How do I export a folder containing multiple photos from iPhoto? I can't get it to export anywhere- no matter what I try!

I'm having trouble exporting a folder containing many folders out of iPhoto. How do you do it?
I just get error messages...

Re-sync your device to iTunes and uncheck Sync under Photos.

I can't get elements 10 to edit photos from Iphoto?

I have not been able to edit photos from iphoto in elements 10. When I press the edit key in iphoto the edit program opens in elements10 but no photo to edit appears.
The Preference selection to Advanced for Editing has elements 10 editor selected. Why is it not accepting the image to edit?

Are you sure? You are using the PSE file inside the support folder and not the file at the top level of the PSE 10 folder in applications as your external editor? I've never known of any other reason for your photo not to appear in the PSE editor. Does the editor open?
Usually this happens when you've set the welcome screen to automatically open the editor so that you don't see the welcome screen anymore. Did you ever change that setting in the PSE welcome screen?

How to restore the option to sync recent photos from iPhoto to iPad?

How to restore the option to sync recent photos from iPhoto to iPad?
I have Yosemite 10.10.2 running on a 2008 iMac
I have an iPad MD513B/A running version 8.1.2
On the iMac iPhoto is version 9.5.1, and iTunes is 12.0.1.26
I used to be able to sync photos from iPhoto (last 3 Events) through iTunes to iPad.
Where has that option gone? iTunes now only allows me to do now is to get pictures from the cloud to the iPad and I haven't prepared for that. So I don't have any pictures on my iPad to show my folks.
I can sync from iPhoto to my Classic iPod but that option has been removed from iTunes for the iPad by the look of it. I want it back so I can manage what I download to my iPAD.
Please can someone advise me how to restore the option to sync my recent photos from iPhoto to iPad.

Where has that option gone? iTunes now only allows me to do now is to get pictures from the cloud to the iPad and I haven't prepared for that. So I don't have any pictures on my iPad to show my folks.
Have you enabled iCloud Photo Library (Beta) on your iPad? Switching on the iCloud Photo Library (Beta) disables the syncing of Photos with iTunes.
On your iPad check the Settings > Photos&Camera. Disable "iCloud Photo Library (Beta)", if you want to sync your photos with iTunes or upload your photos using "My Photo Stream".
On the iMac iPhoto is version 9.5.1,
Is there a reason why you did not update to iPhoto 9.6? That is the version, that includes the compatibility updates for Yosemite.

How do I export a video clip to iMovie from iPhoto?

My video clips and photos were imported from my iPhone 5 to iPhoto on my macbook pro. Using iMovie, I can import the photos from iPhoto but am unable to import the video clips from iPhoto into iMovie.
Is there a way that this can be done?

How are you trying to import from iPhoto to iMovie? The movies in your iPhoto Library should appear in iMovie in the Event Library in the section for your system drive as event "iPhoto Videos".
Here the videos from your iPhoto library should be shown, that you last opened in iPhoto; for example with my version of iMovie (9.0.8) the event library looks like this:
Don't you see the videos there? What is your iPhoto version and iMovie version?
As a workaround to import to iMovie you can always select the video in iPhoto and use "File > Reveal in Finder" to show the movie file and then import to iMovie using the Finder. Caution: When importing from the iPhoto library using the Finder, be sure to import to iMovie using the option "Copy files", not "Move files". Otherwise they will vanish from your iPhoto library.

Importing edited photos from iPhoto

What settings do I need to change in order to import only my edited versions of photos from iPhoto into aperture 3?

thanks for the reply,
I certainly understand your point of course.
Well, I thought since they were already in iPhotos original library, why have them saved twice. I do understand that they would be easily retrieved and used if in Aperture for sure. However, I guess when Aperture imports them or iPhoto exports them to Aperture, they are sent with edited version along with the original. I then figured out how to use the stacks in Aperture. I was going to make a slideshow and noticed that when I pressed the slide show that it was adding both the edited and orignal version to the slide show, so all I had to do was to close all Stacks and it worked as I wanted.
But I quess I would like to know if there are now two versions of the originals taking up space on my HDs, one in iPhotos library and one in Aperture. I have 16,000 photos and want to save space on my hard drives. So the next question would be what happens to the orignal library in iPhoto when you export your iPhoto library into Apertures library?
Thanks,

Importing edited photos from iphotos to typepad

Hi
I'm a complete Mac newbie, currently with growing pains as I move from Linux & Windows to Mac...
Using an ipod to take pics for my web site. Before getting my mac, I used to update them in photoshop, edit them for size & quality, and import the saved edited file from my PC to the typepad-hosted web site.
Now, I plug my ipod into my new mac, import the photos into iphoto and crop, touch-up colors for the photos etc using iphoto. When trying to import the edited photo into typepad, I select my photo from a list of files under Media -> Photos. The thumbnail photo shows up as the edited version - ok, that's what i want. So I import it into typepad, but what gets imported is the original version of the photo, not the edited one that's been cropped, enhanced, renamed etc.
I understand that iphoto is "non-destructive" but how do I get the edited files into my web site. I am looking to create a streamlined process as I'll be doing this a whole lot.
Thank you for your help.

My web browser is Chrome version 36.0.1985.125.
From within Typepad, I try to upload a photo into my web page. Insert Images -> Choose file which pops up a dialog that lets me pick files from my computer.
I've gone two ways here.
1. When I go to Media -> Photos and select the edited photo I want, the photo shows up as a thumbnail, with the edits I made and the changed name. However, when I then select it and load it into the Typepad post, the original un-edited photo gets imported up with its original name. Not what i want.
2. When I instead select Favorite -> Documents and select the edited photo which I previously exported out of iPhoto into this Doc folder, the edited photo gets imported with its changed name. So now I have a workaround or maybe it is by design: export the pics if you want them loaded in Typepad.
Now iPhoto has tighter integration with Flickr, so I can simply Share the photo from iPhoto to my Flickr account and the edited version of the file gets uploaded to Flickr. No need to do an export. That's nice, but what I'm looking for is better integration with Typepad/Wordpress.
By the way, the same applies to Google Drive. If I select Upload from within Google Drive and go to Media -> Photos, the edited photo shows up as a tumbnail with the new name I gave it during my edits. When I select it to upload, the original un-edited photo gets uploaded.
Your earlier explanation made me better understand why this is. The iPhoto Previewer tricks us into thinking the edited file is there for us/apps to upload, but it's a virtual update. There's no file behind it to serve up to the app, be-it to Typepad or Google or whatever. iPhoto integrated with Flickr b/c I imagine the demand was there - it's a pain to have to export edits in order to use them. That's why I was asking if a "plug-in" exists that would essentially export the file I selected. But I can't find them anywhere so I'll have to use a workaround for now.
I'm having another issue with exporting a group of edited pics... not all the changes get exported. But I'll wrestle it on my own for now and post if I get stuck.

Can you delete "Originals" folder after importing photos from iPhoto to LR3?

Hello,
I just imported all my photos from iPhoto to LR3 by making an Alias folder (copy) of my iPhoto Originals folder. Shortly after that I received a message that my Start-up disk is nearly full, which I presume is because I duplicated my iPhoto library. I want to free up my storage and curious if it's okay to delete my iPhoto Originals folder. Or will that delete or cause problems with the Alias folder that LR3 is reading?
Any insight would be appreciated.
Cheers
Bill

Bill,
I wouldn't do anything rash, if I were you. "Alias" sounds like not a real copy, but some kind of virtual copy, with just pointers to the originals. In that case, deleting the originals will leave you without any images. Try renaming one of the images in the folder you want to delete. If that image shows up in Lightroom with a "?" on its thumbnail, then you most definitely don't want to delete that folder.

Transfer edited photos from iPhoto app on my iPad back to the iMac

Dear all,
I've edited some photos on my ipad using the iPhoto app and I would like to have them transferred back to my iMac. Can anyone please show me the required steps? Thanks.
Note: I've tried plugging in my ipad to my iMac and opened iPhoto on my iMac but it seemd like I could only transfer non-edited photos from the iPad.
Million Thanks,

How 2 get edited photo from iphoto app back into iPhoto?

I have the new iPhoto app.
I can't seem to get my edit photos back into iPhoto on my imac.
I thought save to iTunes would do it but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Sure would like to just go back to my mac and find the photo updated.
I have the photo stream turned off and just sync with a cable.
Problem 2
The photos and albums seem to be in random order. This makes it almost impossible to find the photo I want to edit.
Can anybody please help?

<If you are using the cable: Connect your iPad > open iPhoto > select your iPad on the left under devices > Import <button top right of iPhoto (blue button).
<
<Do not import through iTunes.
Sorry - that was no help.
If I edit a photo in e iPhoto app then connect and bring up iPhoto on my mac the iPad device has no photos to import.
I have imported hundreds of photos from iPhones and iPads - I know how to import.
Even if there was a photo laying there to import - that is not what I want because...
Imagine if I had 100 photos then edited all 100 photos on my iPad.
Then if I imported them I would now have 200 photos in iPhoto on my mac.
I want the edited photo to update the original just as tho I edited it in iPhoto on my mac.
So I could "Revert to Original" if I needed to but probably never would.
So the question is when you share to iTunes where does it go?
Also the new album it creates "Edited" - What's the story on that?

How do i edit photos from iPhoto?

whenever i try to open a new picture from the photo folder, i get sent directly to iPhoto. what do i to open and edit a picture that is saved to iPhoto? I have a macbook pro if this helps.

what do i to open and edit a picture that is saved to iPhoto?
Assuming you have Photoshop and Bridge (because you are in an Adobe forum, not Apple iPhoto) there has probably gone something wrong with your install. After you have installed Photoshop in a proper way the files should automatically open in PS. But in your case go to Finder, select the file type you want to open in PS for editing and use the 'get info' command.
Somewhere halfway you should see the option for 'Open With'. Choose your installed version of photoshop and also include 'change all' to apply on all files of this type. Repeat this for other file types (jpeg, tiff, PSD etc) you want to open in PS.

Missing edited photos from iPhoto after Force Quit

I just lost about 50 photos. I'm using a separate application to edit my photos before transferring them to my iPhoto Library. A couple hours in to editing I received an error message and had to force quit both iPhoto and my other photo editing app. I had been adding each photo I edited to iPhoto as I went along, then deleted the unedited version (emptying my trashcan also). After reopening iPhoto, all the pictures I had edited were gone and the original versions were back in the library.
Any clues as to how this happened and if it's possible to retrieve my edited photos?

Why are you deleting the unedited versions?
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
