How to get photos on a CD

I am new to the MAC world. I am trying to backup my pictures from iPhoto to a CD. I can't seem to find much information out there for this. I did find one site that showed how to do this and store them as a JPEG, but it meant placing the photo on the desktop first. I now have over 500 pictures on my desktop individually. Are these copies? If I place these in the "trash", will I completely remove them from iPhoto? ARGH
I use to regularly copy pictures from my Windows computer to CD in case something happened to the computer. These are mostly pictures of my precious children, so I would be devastated if they got wiped from the computer.
What is the easiest(and quickest) way to store all the pictures in iPhoto or a folder in iPhoto to a disk without loosing image quality and without doing it one at a time?
Thank you so much.
Briana

The  key is the Command key, it;s the one just to the left of the Space bar.
I thought it would all go into one folder, but each picture is its own ICON on my desktop(over 500 pics!!!)
Well did you tell it to put them in a folder?

    how to get photos from mac to iPhone 6? when i try it just comes up iCloud instead of my photos

    Make sure Settings > iCloud > Photos > iCloud Photo Library (Beta) = "Off"
    Then sync your iPhone using iTunes and make sure your sync settings for photos are set correctly in iTunes.

  • How to get photos from an email message into iPhoto?

    Not sure if this is for the iPhoto forum or the Mail forum, but here we go:
    I'm trying to figure out how to get photos I've received by email (through Mail) into iPhoto. I seem to remember seeing Jobs demonstrate it onstage a year or two ago but I can't remember what he did. I recall it was a simple one or two step process.
    Any help?

    Still works for me
    on an e-mail with photos attached go to the Save button next to the attachments list, point to the triangle to the right of Save inside the button and hold the left mouse button down - a menu will appear with save all at the top entry, a list of photos below that and "add to iPhoto" as the bottom entry - move your pointer down to the "add to iPhoto" and release and your photo will be a new event in iPhoto

    How to get photos from iPhoto back onto a SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with built in SD card slot. I have tried "Export" but this does not work.

    It's best to export the photos to a folder and then drag the folder onto the memory card.  Memory cards are usually formatted for PCs, FAT 32, which doesn't permit more than a limited number of files in the root directory. Putting the photos in a folder gets around that limitation.

    And to diversify the use of that port, you could get this specialized adapter:

    how to get photos from pc to iphone?

    1. Connect your iDevice to your computer with the USB connector. Open iTunes and select your device from the left sidebar. Then, select the photos tab from the top menu.
    2. Organize and sync.
    First choose where you’d like to sync your photos from. I use iPhoto, but you can use any photo management system.
    Check the box next to each album &/or event you’d like to sync.
    Alternatively, you could put all the photos you want to transfer into a separate folder on your computer, and choose to sync just that folder from the drop down menu.
    Notice that I’ve checked the box “Include videos” so any included videos will also sync.
    When your selections are made, click “Apply” and the photos will sync to the photo library on your device.

  • How to get photos on ipod onto pc

    my computer recently crashed and i lost all of my photos that were saved on my computer. fortunately i have them all saved on my photo ipod. i was just wondering how to get photos off of my ipod and back onto my computer. thanks!

    That is a link to get your songs back, in case you lost those too.
    As for your pictures, this may or may not work, but it's worth a shot.
    Also, unless you put the full picture onto the iPod (there is a setting to only put what would be viewable on the ipod onto the ipod), they may turn out smaller.
    1. Open iTunes, open Preferences (in the Edit menu). This will stop iTunes from seeing the iPod, so it won't try to update it. You can see the above link for more inforation about that.
    2. Open the iPod in My Computer. (may show up as a removable disk or as the name of your iPod, funess' iPd, for example.
    This is where I become unsure of how this will work
    Try finding the photos in the iPod's folder that you just opened. See if you can drag them to another place on your computer. That may or may not work, but it's worth a shot, in my opinion
    I hope this helps!

  • How to get photos off my Windows 7 PC to my iPhone and iPad Mini?

    How do I get photos off of my Windows 7 PC to my iPhone 4S and iPad Mini automatically through iCloud?

    On a Windows PC the easiest way to get pictures from your iPhone is to just use Windows Explorer.
    1) Plugin your iPhone to your PC
    2) Open “My Computer”
    3) Find your iPhone, it will appear as any other camera would
    4) Open iPhone to find your Photos
    5) Select the pictures you want to copy to your computer and copy/ paste them into the desired location on your PC.

  • How to get photos in the correct order on the Ipad

    I am sure many people ask this but I have tried many methods and am unable to get my Ipad photos to be in the correct order in my albums. I have over 800 pictures and 4 folders and when I sync them they end up jumbled within my albums. On my windows PC in they are in the correct order i want them to be. I renamed all of them in the order. I also changed the date taken (They are set to the same date and time). Is there a way to fix these jumbled, out of order photos? It is just extremely frusterating... Seriously apple, you can create siri but you cant let us arrange our pictures, let alone delete them without hooking up to itunes??? Quite a disappointment! Anyway thanks for answering and your help! P.S. I have an Ipad 3

  • How to get photos into photo stream?

    How do you get photos from your iPhone camera roll into photo stream?

    OK, after a bit of Googling I managed to get my photos from the iPhone to my PC without iTunes or a desktop app. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-pictures/i-cannot -download-pictures-from-my-iphone-to-my-pc/94f5c656-c1d9-48e6-9b6f-796ae048b75e
    When I plug my iPhone into the PC as well as iTunes coming up the Windows AutoPlay popup appears. If I choose Open device to view files in Windows Explorer, I can then see the folder containing the photos and copy them to my PC. This worked fine for me, although from Google others have had problems.
    I suppose I could now put these back into the Photo Stream on my iPhone via iCloud by putting them into the Photo Stream/Uploads folder on the PC.

    I have no problem getting photos from Gallery into my home PC (Windows 7) using the USB cord.  I cannot figure out how to save a photo which has been sent to me via txt msg.  tried the bottom left menu, and nothing there to help.

    Try doing a long press directly over photo, see if it brings up a menu of options to do to the attachment/photo. One should be  "Save to storage" or something like that.
