How to burn photos of 2 different cameras

Hallo, I have a question which nobody can answer: when I am in holidays with my wife we both make photos with our cameras. At home I create in iphoto an album with my photos an another album with my wife`s photos. Then I create a third album in which I drop the photos of the 2 albums chronologically. Until now everything is O.K. But when I burn the third album the photos are no more chronologic. First come my photos and then my wife`s photos (or vice versa). Can I anything do to burn the photos chronological ? I hope I explained my problem sufficient enough would be verry happy to get an answer of this problem. Thank you an advance. Peter

On any burned disk that is viewed by OS X the file will be listed alphanumerically. To get your photos in an alphanumeric order that will represent the chronological order that you desire do the following:
1 - put them all in an album and arrange manually in the order you want.
2 - select all and use the Photos->Batch Change->Title to Text option and check the box top append a sequential number. If you put in "Image" the resulting file names will be "Image-01.jpg", "Image-02.jpg", etc.
3 - Export the files to a folder on the desktop with the option to use the Title as the new file name.
NOTE: If you have more than 99 photos this option will not work as the padded sequential numbers would have to start with -001 for them to be listed correctly. iPhoto only puts in one padded zero, -01.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How to upload photos from computer to camera memory card?

    I want to copy a few select photos and AVI files from the Organizer back to a new camera memory card.

    A new message was posted by Colin Walls:
    how to upload photos from computer to camera memory card:
    Open Organizer. Then open Windows Explorer [My Computer] and navigate to the memory card "drive." Drag the images from Organizer to the memory card.
    Dear Colin Walls:
    Thanks for your excellent tip. It works just as you said. The WHY I want to do this is:
    when I want to print a lot of pictures, I take my memory card to Longs Drug store and use their "machine." Naturally, I want to have all the photos I need on the card.
    A few days ago at Longs, I edited about 75 photos of a recent family reunion from my 512MB SD card taken with my Canon PowerShot A510. I ended up ordering 198 4x6 prints. My daughter had several good reunion photos on her digital camera. She e-mailed me seven photos as attachments, thus they were on my computer, but not on my memory card, until I started dragging as per the hint from Colin Walls.
    Windows Explorer shows the file structure on the card as one DCIM folder, with subfolders 155 CANON, 156 CANON, 157 CANON, 158 CANON, and CANONMSC. I proceeded to drag each my daughter's seven photos from PS Elem. 4 Organizer to the folder 158 CANON, except that I dragged one to the folder CANONMS, by mistake.
    The good news is that Longs machine and PS Elem. 4 both see ALL the photos on the card. The bad news is that my camera does not see the added photos, nor does the Canon ZoomBrowser 3.2 and 5.5 programs,nor the Picasa2 program.
    Thanks Colin. Gary Docherty

  • I don't know how transfer my photos from my Sony Camera using USB?

    My MAC doesn't pop up any thing when I connect my Sony Camera model DSC-N1 on USB port? How can I transfer my photos? Thanks ...

    The EXACT answer will depend on which OS and iPhoto you are using, but they all work as follows.
    Provided that your Mac recognizes your camera's memory card, you should be able to use iPhoto's
    FILE > IMPORT TO LIBRARY menu command, even if connecting your camera does not automatically find ("pop up") iPhoto. If you want your Mac to ALWAYS launch one specific app (such as iPhoto) when you connect your camera, you select which app via with your Mac's "Image Capture" application as follows:
    Launch your Mac's "Image Capture" application and search Image Capture > Help for "Transferring items from your camera" (without the quotation marks.)
    If you have trouble with the search, you can find the topic on Apple's website here:
      http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=ImageCapture/6.0/en/5304.html
    When your camera is connected and operating, you can use Image Capture to select whether and which application to launch automatically when you connect your camera in the future. The Image Capture 8 way of setting is shown in the following image:
    For help with the iPhoto part, launch your Mac's "iPhoto" application and search iPhoto > Help for "Importing photos from a digital camera" (without the quotation marks.)
    If you have trouble with the search, you can find the topic on Apple's website here:
      http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iPhoto/7.0/en/6297.html
    The exact steps may be slightly different if you are using some other version of iPhoto. If you cannot find what you need, post back which iPhoto and Mac OS X versions you are using and what specific issue is giving trouble, and we will try to offer tailored links.

  • How do you combine videos from different cameras

    Hi there,
    I would like to be able to combine video clips taken of the same event with different cameras in such a way that they all share the same audio.
    I have recorded my daughter's entire theater play with a camera in the back of the hall connected directly to the theater's audio equipment. Thus, I have the entire audio in high quality in one huge clip. Then I and a couple of other parents have recorded the play with a number of additional cameras. I would now like to put together a project with video clips from the other cameras using the audio of the first. Obviously, the timing is critical here.
    How can I replace part of just the video of a clip with the video of another clip without affecting the audio and making sure that the part that I replace is of the exact same length as the part I insert? How can I then finetune the location of the replacing part so that it fits to the audio?
    Thank you very much for any help you can provide.
    Best regards,
    Marcus

    Hi AppleMan,
    this is also a very helpful hint, thanks!
    This has been quite an experience and wasn't as easy as I had hoped. May I add two additional hints in the hopes that someone else will find them useful:
    * When taping an event with several cameras make sure that all cameras are set to the same time. This makes iMovie sort them in roughly the right order and makes it much easier to find the clips you want.
    * When trying to overlay one short clip over another longer one (using the audio of the longer clip) it is helpful to have several extra frames on the left and right of the clip. With the "Trim" menu item one can then more precisely determine exactly which part of the clip to insert. With the Shift-Arrow Keys one can then easily shift the entire clip by individual frames without changing the length of the clip.
    Best regards,
    Marcus

  • How to copy photos from photostream to camera roll

    How do I copy photos from Photostream to Camera Roll?

    I have found the only way to put a picture back to the Camera Roll if you have already deleted it but its still in the Photo Stream is to edit the picture, even it doesn't need it. Then save it and it will save the edited picture to the camera roll. The original picture will stay unedited in the Photo Stream.  This is just my opinion and the only way I've found to make it work. If there is a better way, I am open to suggestions because this method is cumbersome.

  • Importing photos from 2 different cameras

    I have been importing photos from my partner's and my own Sony Cybershot cameras for months now but only discovered by browsing iPhoto Library that I has created doubles from day one.
    I have 2 DSC0250.JPG and 2 DSC0250.jpg for example.
    I am a bit worried that one set will be crushed. Am I going to lose all those photos? Can I rename one set? How can I register an other camera on iPhoto to stop it from creating doubles all the time?
    Many thanks in advance for your help
    Steph

    Where are you seeing these "doubles" - in the iPhoto window or using the finder?
    you can not change the file names - never make any changes of any sort to the content or structure of the iPhoto library - it will corrupt it and you will lose data
    iPhoto is fine with duplicate file names - it knows that cameras do that
    you can set both cameras to different starting points so they are not the same until later

  • How do I edit together two different camera angles in iMovie '11?

    I've just started using iMovie '11 to put together a little concert footage of my band. I've got two videos of the same concert from two different angles. One is in front of the band and one is next to the drums. Obviously, the video next to the drums has louder audio. Is there a way I can edit these to videos together with iMovie '11 and mix together the audio as well?

    If you do a lot of this you may want to try Final Cut Pro X. However, it is quite possible in iMovie.  In FCP X, there are tools for automatically aligning the clips from the various cameras and audio sources, and it is fairly straightforward to then cut between cameras as part of a compound clip.
    Here is how I did it in iMovie.
    I recently did this for a video of my niece's senior voice recital. (Video is below)
    The key is to use the Cutaway feature of  iMovie. If you are not familiar with Cutaway, here is a good tutorial from Ken Stone.
    I had three audio possibilities. A CD recording, the side camera audio track, and the back camera audio track. I decided to use the side camera audio track with heavy use of muted cutaways from the back camera. So I used the side camera as my base clips, and used the back camera as the cutaway clips. I decided the CD recording had too much noise even after fixing in Audacity. And the back camera audio track was OK but had too much coughing and noise.
    Here are tips for getting it lined up perfectly.
    1) In iMovie/Preferences make sure that you check "Display Time as hh:mm:ss:frames" so you can edit to the frame level. (Also, select "Show Advanced Tools so you get the Cutaway feature)
    2) In the iMovie Project View, set the thumbnail slider to 1/2 second so you have a great deal of control.
    3) Initially, leave the volume at 100% on the Cutaway track, so that both tracks are playing. You can hear when they are off.
    4) Click the "Waveforms" button in the Project view, so you get a visual cue of how to line up the tracks.
    5) Between the audible cues and the visual cues, you can nudge the cutaway back and forth one frame at a time by dragging until you have it perfect.
    6) When it is lined up to your satisfaction, set the volume slider of the Cutaway track to zero, and turn off the waveforms. You can also move the thumbnail slider back to 5 seconds or so.
    7) For some of the fine work, I switched to the "single row timeline view". This slows you down a bit, but lets you see the waveforms more clearly.
    8) I made heavy use of the iMovie Comment Marker feature. I watched the whole base video/audio track and inserted comment markers at the points where I wanted the Cutaway to begin and end. For example, a comment might say "Insert Cutaway 1". I would usually time the cutaway so it started at a distinct audio event, such as when the piano start. This comment marker made it easy to drag my cutaway to a point that was approximately correct.
    9) If you need to do a lot of cutaways, I find that it helps to use the SPLIT CLIP command in your project. This way you can have a single cutaway per clip, and this makes it easier to manage and is less processor and memory intensive for iMovie. I would use the comments to mark the entry and exit points of the cutaway as described above. I would then select that portion of the clip that included these markers plus a little more, so that a yellow border is around the selection. Then right-click/SPLIT CLIP (or CLIP/SPLIT CLIP in the top menu). This does not physically splt the clip within the Event. It only virtually splits the clip in the project.

  • How To Burn Photos OUTSIDE of iPhoto?

    Im tired of iPhoto, the whole program is just a mess. Every time i burn a disc from there it puts that whole mess of a puzzel of folders just to get to the photos. How do you burn discs outside of iphoto? I tried the burn folder, but it did nothing. every time i hit the burn button it told me to insert a disc (which I had already done, brand new, enough space, everything was fine about the disc) Why does apple make it so complicated to do such a normal task, almost want to go back to my PC. Same thing goes for DVDs, I cant burn a DVD for the life of me. Ive read the instructions on their support page, and follow them pecicly, and nothing. always just spaces out on me.

    Can you explain again the exact steps you are going through to burn a CD/DVD.
    What do you want to burn on the DVD?
    this is what i am doing right now...
    Create a burn folder. It should be listed in the left column of the finder window.
    Drag the files/folders you want to burn on top of the burn folder in the left hand column.
    Highlight the burn folder in the left hand column.
    In the window on the right will be the folders/files you dragged into the burn folder. there will also be a burn button in that window.
    Click the burn button.
    You will be asked to insert a disc.
    Insert a disc.
    the little window will go away and another window will pop up and you will be asked to type in a name for the disc.
    Type in a name.
    Follow instructions from there and the burning will start

  • How to download photos from LG Spectrum camera?

    How do I download the photos from my LG Spectrum phone to my computer? When I had a Blackberry I could connect to my laptop and it was easy. Help, please!!??

    It is just as easy as your old device. Take your USB cable plug into the computer. You will see two drive letters appear (one if you don't have a SD card in your device) double click the new drive letter to open it. If internal phone storage the photos are in a folder called DCIM you double click that folder and you will see your photos there.
    If you have an SD card double click to open the drive, search for a folder called photos/pictures and double click to open and view.
    I would make a new folder on the desktop and call it something like Transferred from spectrum and you need only select the photos from either storage and paste them into the new folder you created. If they all transferred OK then go back in a remove the pictures or music media to free up space.
    When all done I like to make CDR copies for safe keeping. If you have a DVD burner in the computer you can burn them to there.
    Good Luck

  • How to transfer photo back to iphone camera roll?

    I accidentally click delete after import while importing photo from iPhone to iPhoto. All photos in my iPhone's camera roll were gone.
    I have tried to sync photo back to iPhone but it only created a new folder rather than putting photo back to camera roll.
    Is there any way to transfer photos to camera roll folder?

    You don't - not without a paid 3rd party utility.
    All photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process are optimized for viewing on the iPhone - the original resolution is reduced, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported.
    Transfer the photos from your previous computer to your new computer from your computer's backup along with all other important data.

  • How to get photos from my new camera to my computer

    I am missing a step somewhere please help. New canon powershot elph 135.  I can't get the photos from the camera to go to the computer.  What am I missing?  I have downloaded several things but ??? And support isn't open on weekends.

    Canon camera use a standard mini USB cable (not Micro USB, mini), you can get them just about anywhere.  For best results get one with a filter on it - that cylinder you see here:
    They work without it, but I've had sporadic results when tethering with a cable that doesn't have a filter.
    All that said, I highly recommend getting an SD Card reader (available anywhere) and simply taking the card out of the camera and putting it into the reader.  Any operating system, such as Windows, can read the files on the card directly without using Canon software (may be required if connecting the camera to the computer).
