How to export iPhoto Album in iMAC and have similar folder structure(with Timestamps) which can be viewed in finder
In simple terms, I wanted to view the photos in Windows system, similar strcture of iPhotos

If you want to copy all of your photos to a Windows machine and have them in folders representing the iPhoto Events the were in quickly and easily just do the following:
1  - open the library with the Finder as shown in this screenshot:
2 - COPY the Originals/Masters folder to the Desktop.
3 - copy the Originals/Masters folder to the Windows machine.
This will give you all of your original image file in their Event folder on the Windows machine.
NOTE:  With iPhoto 8 or newer the Event folders in the Masters folder will be titled by date (EXIF) if imported from a camera.  If imported from a folder the event folder will have the same title as the source folder.  If imported singularly or in a group without a folder the title will be a date, either the EXIF date or import date.
With iPhoto 7 (08) and earlier the Event folders in the Originals folder will have the same title as the Event has in the library.
This method would be quicker but not provide the additional metadata you might have added in iPhoto like keywords, titles, descriptions that exporting out of iPhoto with Format=JPEG and the checkboxes selected to include keywords, titles, places, etc, checked.

  • How to export iPhoto slideshow to quicktime and then view on video iPod?

    How do you export a slideshow to a Quicktime movie (from iPhoto) so that the resulting Quicktime movie is then viewable on an iPod?
    I've exported slideshows (with transitions, specified Ken Burns effects, music, etc.) to Quicktime movies to try to view these on my iPod. I don't want to view my photo albums since they don't have of the effects that the slideshow has. There is an option to save the slideshow in a small file size that is presumably viewable on an ipod. About 80% of the time, however, the Quicktime movies are then NOT viewable on my iPod. My iPod just freezes when I try to start the movie.
    Here are the steps I use to export
    1. From iPHoto Select the slideshow / File / Export / select small movie
    2. From iTunes / File / Import / select the Quicktime movie that was created from the slideshow
    Background info
    1. Apple G5 purchased in 2003, 2 CPUs, CPU Speed 2 GHz. Memory 2GB. Bus Speed 1 GHZ. CPU TYpe PowerPC 970 (2.2)
    2. iPhoto '08 version 7.1.1 (354)
    3. Video iPod purchased in May 2006. (60 GB). Uses iPod software version 1.2.3 (most current version for this iPod)
    4. Quicktime Player version 7.3.0 Player Version 7.3 (7.3)
    I've tried synchronizing my iTunes with the Quicktime movie to a new iPod and that doesn't work either. I've tried many different approaches but none of these ever work. I'd really appreciate any thoughts or ideas you might have. Thank you!

    You probably will need a 3rd party application to convert the . mov QT file that iPhoto creates into a format for the iPod. Some are VisualHub, ViddyUp, and iSquint. You can find them at VersionTracker.com.

    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 export an album and keep images in the same order in elements 11 mac

    I made an album of my trip to Australia (lots of pictures) and changed the order of the images (not the same as shooting order) and when I export the images in the album to a folder or memorystick, the images are copied to that place but I lost the album order of the images.
    How can I prevent that, without having to renumber al 500 images separatly?

    Thanks for the tip, Michel
    It worked like a charm…

    The order in album is only kept in the organizer database, so the only way not to lose that order is to rename files.
    If you are using the 'export' function, select your album in custom order, select all photos and in the dialog, choose to rename with a common base name.

  • Transferring Albums between iMac and iPad Air iPhoto's

    Just bought an iPad Air and it set up fine and synced with all the old iPad info of my iPad 1. On iPhoto however, it only imported the albumns that I had on the old iPad and I could not import an album I have on my iMac in iPhoto onto the new iPad. Any suggestions.

    Hi
    I have an imac running iphoto 7.1.5 and have updated my itunes to the latest version 11.1.3, my opp system is Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    When i sync my ipad via usb cable, my iphoto 7.1.5 loads and i can transfer files from my ipad to the imac, but not the other way round.  I tried to follow your instructions above by using itunes but after clicking on the ipad tab there is no iphoto tab appearing.  Is it because my iphoto version is so old or am I doing something stupid,  i would appreciate some help
    Thanks

    Create folders - File menu ==> new ==> folder  (you can not "indent" them) - folders can contain albums or other folders
    Suggest the "indentation" to apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

  • Videos become single frame when exporting iPhoto album

    I've gotten the hang of how to organize pix and vids in an "album" and get them renamed. Now I just want to give those renamed reordered photos on discs to other people that will be on Mac and PCs. This apparently means using the "export" feature, as burning an album directly from iPhoto won't produce a disc usable by a PC.
    "Exporting" the album succeeded in making a new folder elsewhere on my computer containing all of the images and it preserved their names. However, I noticed all of the Quicktime and AVI files had very small file sizes. When I double click on a .mov file, for example, it opens in Quicktime but it is now only a single frame. Same is true for the avi files.
    Any suggestions on another export setting tweak I need to do to get this right?

    You shouldn't have to change it to original though. And if it isn't exporting the actual movie, it should show up as a pic, not have the video icon. I lost important footage from hurricane Ike because I was in a hurry, and trusted the app. Then I go to look at the videos in iMovie, and they aren't even recognized. Current should be whatever it is. Currently that was a video, not an image. Sad.

  • HT4906 How do export photos from an iMac to the cloud to access them on an iPad?

    How do export photos from an iMac to the cloud to access them on an iPad?

    You can do it by manually adding those photos to My Photo Stream and let the iPad access them and copy to the iPad's Camera Roll for permanent residence on the iPad. The photos will be viewable in the Ps for 30 days. 
    Or create a Shared Photo Stream which will leave the photos up indefinitely and access the Shared Photo Stream (private or public)  with the iPad. 
    Of course both devices must be signed in to the same iCloud account and have Photo Stream enabled.
    the My Photo Stream is not a permanent situation wereas Shared Photo Streams are.

  • I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account. Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my account every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail. I cannot edit the outgoing server; how can I send emails?

    I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account (3 email addresses). Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my accounts every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail (the message says that the outgoing server was rejected. I cannot edit the outgoing server, and the keychain will not save my passwords (the ports are valid). How can I change the outgoing server to send emails, and how can I avoid having Mail request my passwords every 2 minutes? Verizon, as usual, will not provide support to iMacs.

    Is there an email saved in your drafts or outbox folder?  I suspect that Mail is continually trying to send it, and each time Google is rejecting the email message.
    You can open the message and then delete it from your Outbox folder.  Then try removing all @gmail email addresses from it and seeing whether you can send to the other folks.  I suspect that will work.
    With email, if an SMTP server *can* verify email addresses, sometimes it will and it will refuse to send messages.  If a message has to be relayed across servers, no verification is done, and you'll get a bounce if an email address is bad.

  • Hi, How to export my Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere 8 Elements from my old PC to my new PC

    Hi, How to export my Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere 8 Elements from my old PC to my new one - both are Windows 7???

    Hi Jeff,
    Thanks for reply.
    I want to transfer/export/bring over images and videos to my new PC.
    I have one licence (and disc) in my old PC for Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere Elements 8.
    Separately I have one unused licence (disk) for  Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10.
    I also then need to understand the smartest and easiest approach to:
    Either I export software 8.0 and images and videos from old to  new PC
    - Or
    I install version 10 on the new PC and then  transfer/export/bring over images and videos to my new PC.
    Great if you are able to guide me in this.
    Regards,
    Per S

    Help, please! Any advice on how I link my new iMac and my new itunes software with existing external harddrive containing my entire itunes library?

    Hello!
    It should be a matter of
    Quiting iTunes first if it's running
    Connecting your external harddrive to your Mac, use the Finder to browse to it
    Find your iTunes folder on the ext HDD and double-click on iTunes Library.itl
    If you have any trouble with this, please let us know.

    I have just updated to OS X 10.9 on my iMac and have lost my Startup Disk... how do I get it back?

    The storage level is held on the server so signing out of your iCloud on your Mac wouldn't affect it; and you can't delete an iCloud account from the server.
    Are you absolutely sure that when you signed back in you signed in with the same Apple ID as before, and didn't create a new iCloud account by accident (because it does sound as if that is what has happened).
    If you are sure about this then only Support can unravel it for you. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services', then ' 'iTunes', and then 'iTunes Store', then 'Purchases, Billing & Redemption'.
