How to copy photos from g5 ipoto6 to macbook iphoto8

I want to copy my photographs, ratings and keywords from iphoto6 on the G5 PPC to my macbook running iphoto8. What would be ideal is to synchronise iphoto on both machines, but I am not sure If I have to upgrade IP6 to IP8 or not. I have a carbon copy clone of the G5 and time machine copies also.
I just don't know what to copy across can someone point me in the right direction please?

Simply copy the iPhoto Library Folder from the Pictures Folder on the old machine to the same location on the New machine.
Then, in case of permissions issues: Download BatchMod from

And apply it to the iPhoto Library Folder using the settings found here:

(Credit to Old Toad for this one).
The launch iPhoto on the new machine. That's all.
What would be ideal is to synchronise iphoto on both machines
A v6 iPhoto will not open the later version's library format.

    how to copy photo from camera roll to created photo album or to photo library

    I have been trying to figure out a work aroundof this issue too.  It defeats the purpose of photo stream in my eyes.
    You can copy a picture from your photo stream to your camera roll and then crop, etc.  But you can't then file that picture into a folder of your choice!?!?!?!  If I have to file the picture on my computer and then resync to do it then photo stream is mostly pointless!!!

    Hello Lakshminarayanafromgbr,
    Welcome to Apple Support communities.
    I have attached several articles relating to copying photos to your Mac from your iPhone. The first is importing directly from the phone to the Mac. The next two are on setting up and using Photo Stream through iCloud.

  • How to transfer photos from iphone 4s to MacBook Pro

    How to transfer photos from iPhone 4s to MacBook Pro? The sync is not working. The software is upto date on both the phone as well as on the laptop. The 4s uses ios6 and laptop is Snow Lion (latest version).
    Please advise.

    Are you attempting to do this with iTunes? What you ask is a job for iPhoto. Did you try to import the photos to iPhoto?

  • 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.

  • How to copy photos from mac to iphone

    Is there a way I can copy photos from my mac to my iphone

    "Yeah but I cannot fleet them directly form my iphone"
    That is correct.  Photos synced from the computer to iphone are deleted the same way - the sync process.
    " I want the pictures in my camera roll is there any third party app that could do that"
    You can do this from the iphone itself or you can do it when you import them to your computer,  There is no need for an app.

  • How to copy photos from iPad that don't appear when plugged in to PC or in web based Photo Stream?

    Hi all,
    Got a real doozy of a problem.  Had a load of photographs on an iPhone 5 which synchronised via Photo Stream onto our iPad. iPhone 5 has just stopped working due to water damage and we've lost access to the photos.  However, the photos we have lost all come up under Photo Stream on the iPad. We need to copy these photos off so I plugged the iPad into our laptop and navigated to the images through Explorer but they weren't there. So I the added the iCloud control panel to our laptop and browsed to Photos folder and clicked on Photo Stream and there are about 350 photos in there but about 600 on the iPad.  I really need to get these photos back an just can't find a way of getting them back.  Would really appreciate some help please.
    Thanks
    Adam

    The photo stream server only keeps photos up to 30 days.  Once on a device's photo stream album, they stay there until you delete them on the device or turn off photo stream.  In your case, when you turned on photo stream on the PC, you only got what was available from the server, the older ones have been deleted.
    Now, about the ipad.  In it's photo stream, you can view each photo, the icons at the bottom of the view screen includes a box with arrow coming out of it (on my iphone, the icon is at the bottom left).  When you tap that icon, you then get a choice to save to Camera Roll.  What you need to do is save all the photos you no longer have on the PC from the ipad's photo stream to Camera Roll.  This could take time.
    Once these are in camera roll, sync the photos from the ipad to your computer.

    You can email the photos from Photo Booth or from the camera roll in the photos app.
    Tap on the photo to select it and then tap the arrow icon in the upper right corner and select email -  in the photos app ..... or tap email - in Photo Booth - at the bottom of the screen.
    You can also import photos from the camera roll to your Mac using iPhoto, Aperture, or Image Capture.

  • How to transfer photos from blackberry phone to macbook air

    I just got this macbook air and want to upload pictures from my blackberry phone. Is it just as easy as plugging into the USB port and transfering a file?

    iPhoto will import photos from any device that "looks like" a standard digital still camera - consult your manual of Kodak tech support to see if your Kodak Pocket video camera has such a setting -- if it does not then yhou will need to use Kodak software or the finder to get your photos and then import them into iPhoto

  • How to copy photos from PC to PS Touch Using iTunes

    With my iPad connected to my PC I used iTunes to copy selected photos to my iPad. Specifically, I went to Apps and then scrolled down to the File Sharing section, where PS Touch is listed. I used the Add button to actually copy the photos. iTunes shows those photos list for my iPad for PS Touch later on.
    But within the PS Touch on my iPad those photos do not appear. They are not in my Camera Roll.
    Where are they on my iPad and how do I access them?
    TIA.

    Hello, i'm a pstouch user on iPad.
    This feature missing me a lot because I often need to import files from my desktop to pstouch without having to put it first in iPhoto, and then syncronise iPad with iTunes to have this file available in pstouch.
    Of course I go to the other direction to save my work on my computer's desktop, the file appears in iTunes and then I drag it on the desktop to classify it on my computer without the need to syncronise it with iPhoto.... Why do not allow the 2 direction ?
    I don't use Creative Cloud.
    For example, Photoforge2 allow this by showing the "document folder" (where files go when you drag it in the shared folder of this app, in iTunes).
    Is there news about this ?
    Thanks you.

  • How to copy photos from iphoto to windows hard drive

    I wanna back up my iphoto to windows hard drive.
    thanks.

    I share the Mac iPhotos folder \\COUNTERPWN\Pictures\iPhoto Library.photolibrary\Masters and create a shortcut on my windows desktop. If you want you can use Microsoft Synctoy and run it whenever you want to back them up. Kind of reverse order, instead of going from Mac to Windows to backup, go from Windows to Mac and back again. lol hope that made sense.
    Just make sure you have File Sharing selected and Windows Sharing on in prefrence for you iPhoto folder.

  • Copy photos from ipod touch to macbook pro?

    I'm having the most incredibly difficult time trying to do this. When I connect my ipod touch (latest gen) to a windows machine, it opens up a folder with all the files on the ipod, including "camera" videos and photos. But when I hook it up to my mac, there's NOTHING. I can't even manually find a folder with the contents. I have screenshots and downloaded wallpapers on my ipod that I want to get out of the "downloaded" section, save onto my computer, and re-upload them to my ipod in the regular "photos" section.
    Can someone please tell me how to do this? I tried to google it and all I got were "free trial programs" and stuff like that. -_-

    Open iphoto, attach iphone, import photos.
