How to get scanned photos to open directly in iphoto?

I'm beginning a photo project that requires a lot of scanning. I purchased a new scanner but I can't seem to get the photos to open directly into iphoto. I'm using an Epson scanner - the Epson Perfection V600 - and it offers only options to open into "My Pictures" or on the desktop. I was hoping to have images imported directly from scanner into iphoto, eliminating that extra step for me to have to do manually.
Any suggestions to help me get acquainted with this will be much appreciated!

No - you can not "open" photos in iPhoto - you must scan the photos and then import them into iPhoto
There is an "auto import" folder in the iPhoto library - I have not played with it but I suspect that if you save photos into it they will automatically import into iPhoto

    how do i add photos to my ipod without losing photos that already exist on the ipod but not the computer?
    Well, If you've deleted the photos off your computer, then when you connect your iPod, they'll probably be automatically deleted off of it.
    Try this, though:
    Open iTunes.
    Go to "Edit -> Preferences -> iPod". Without the iPod connected, it should say "No iPod connected". Leave this Preferences windows up and running; I believe this may prevent iTunes from seeing your iPod as a connection.
    Then, if you want to copy photos from your iPod to your computer, then see these programs:
    iPodPhotoCopy
    CopyPod Photo
    Then, move those photos that you have transferred to your computer to a new folder, for example. Name the folder, then add the other photos that you previously were wanting on your iPod into this new folder.
    In Edit -> Preferemces -> iPod -> Photos, select this new folder to sync to your iPod ("Browse" for location).
    I hope this helps,

  • How to get jpg photo into photoshop as jpg wt LR changes

    I can not determine how to get jpg photos from Lightroom into Photoshop CS3 without using the export function. With a raw photo I can simply press "clrl e" and the raw photo is converted into a tif or psd file and sent to photoshop. That is very convenient when you have worked on the photo and wish to make additional adjustments in CS3. When I do the same process with a jpg file, it converts the file from jpg into a tif at a much larger file size then necessary. Is there a way to get a jpg file which I have worked on within Lightroom into CS3 without using the export function? Thanks, Arthur

    Lee Jay, I think you are wrong this time (only)!
    Arthur, to solve your problem you have to do two things:
    1. In LR open preferences and activate to automatically write changes to XMP. This ensures that your JPG pictures are updated with the LR settings in the XMP container within the jpg file.
    2.in PSCS3 open preferences. In the file handling section you will find the option to 'prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG files'. If this option is activated also jpg files are processed with ACR.
    You asked for a way to get a jpg file into CS3 without using export. Now you have that. After you made your adjustments in LR just open the jpg in CS3 and you will see the photo with all changes you have made. I tested this with LR and CS3 beta myself it it works perfectly.

  • I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    Firstly iWeb CAN'T IMPORT any kind of published html code as it has no import facility.  You can however add html code, javascript and css by selecting the html snippet and placing it on your page the entering the code in here and clicking on Apply.  You DO NOT create a shape as you say - you use the html snippet and place your code in there.
    There are not really a lot of ways in which you can write code - if you want to enter small amounts of code, then you would use an ordinary text editor to do this such as Text Edit on a Mac or Text Wrangler.  If you want to add code to iWeb like this, then you would either use the html snippet method in iWeb itself or you would have to publish the site to a local folder from iWeb and open the relevant html page with a text editor and add the additional code in this way and then publish.  However, if he decided to add the code with a text editor, then you would have to upload the pages directly to the server using an ftp client - if you try to upload the site directly from iWeb, all the extra code will be overwritten.
    As for checking whether the site was created using iWeb, all you need do is view the site in Safari and then click on View and then select View Source Code and it will tell you.
    Even thoough extra code was added to the site and he might well have done this by publishing to a local folder and adding the code with a text editor, he should still have the domain file for the site too.
    Ask again.  I'm sure that for adding quick code, most would not want to use programmes such as Dreamweaver, but a simple text editor will suffice.  As OT already said, if he claims that he does not have the domain.sites file, then try Flux 4 which is a web design programme and has full import facilities.  At least this way, if he just gives you the published version of the site, you have some way of opening it.
    You can download a free trial of Flux 4 and you can also purchase the full version from the Mac App Store if you decide you like it.

  • I have an imac 27 inch O SX 10.6.8. using iphoto 11 Version 9.1.5. I have scanned some photos at very high resolution with each photo being about 45MB. They're saved to desktop. How can I reduce the size of the scanned photo's they are crashing iphoto

    I have an imac 27 inch O SX 10.6.8. using iphoto 11 Version 9.1.5. I have scanned some photos at very high resolution with each photo being about 45MB. They're saved to desktop. How can I reduce the size of the scanned photo's they are crashing iphoto.

    What format are they? Tiif? Jpeg? You can compress them with a lot of apps - including Preivew and just about any graphics editor out there. I'm not sure that 45mb would crash iPhoto thogh, are yo sure that's the cause? I know that some folks have mentioned pixel dimensions causing issues, as can color profiles.

  • How to get accurate photo printouts using calibrated FlexScan S1932 , Photoshop CS3 and Canon MX925 ? ALL ARE calibrated with i1Pro . WHO SHOULD GOVERN THE PRINTOUT , THE CS3 OR THE PRINTER ?

    How to get accurate photo printouts using  FlexScan S1932 screen, Photoshop CS3 and Canon MX925 ? ALL ARE calibrated with i1Pro . WHO SHOULD GOVERN THE PRINTOUT , THE CS3 OR THE PRINTER ?

    You need to work with the calibration parameters to get a good match from screen to print. There are no fixed values - basically whatever settings produce a match are the right ones.
    First, set the white point - luminance and color - so that screen white is a visual equivalent to paper white. You can be very specific about this, with a viewing booth right next to the display and a particular paper as target. Or you can take a more generalistic approach. That too will usually work well, as long as you keep the aim in sight: screen white = paper white.
    Don't trust the white point presets. You will usually have to adjust to compensate for your working environment. Make sure you can adjust both along the blue/yellow Kelvin scale and the green/magenta axis. Any given Kelvin value may well be wrong on the green/magenta axis.
    Next set a realistic black point. This is important. Monitor manufacturers throw about completely unrealistic contrast ranges that you will never see on paper. A good glossy inkjet paper will be in the vicinity of 250-300:1, or a black point around 0.4 - 0.5 cd/m² if your white point is at 120. If you have a monitor that goes down to, say, 0.2, which most monitors today will, you're in for an unpleasant surprise.
    Leave gamma at 2.2. Gamma is remapped from profile to profile and is "invisible" - the net result is always linear. You just want to stay close to native so that the monitor behaves at its best.
    If you have a wide gamut monitor soft proofing in Photoshop can be useful. With a standard gamut monitor it's mostly a waste of time since monitor gamut is the limiting one.
    Oh, and let Photoshop manage color. Make sure you have the right paper/ink profile and also make sure you have the right paper selected in the printer driver. This controls the total amount of ink.

  • Mountain Lion won't allow me to save photos from Mail directly to iPhoto (as you could in all other recent OSX).  Tried opening iPhoto and then click/drag each photo onto iPhoto icon on dock (as Help instructed) but the photo will not drag.  Suggestions?

    I have real a lot of posts that say to click Command+Option while opening iPhoto and this will open the Photo Library Repair window, but... this is not happening.
    Be sure you're holding the correct keys and that you're holding them long enough. Depress them before clicking on iPhoto and don't let go until the menu shows up.
    If you don't want to lose those photos, make a back up now. Hopefully it's not too late.

    Restore the backup of your iPhone 5 to your iPhone 4.  It will contain your camera roll photos. 
    To do this, first make sure the iPhone 4 is running the same or higher version of iOS as your iPhone 5 was.  If it isn't, you'll need to update it first.  Then, to restore the iCloud backup, you'll have to begin by erasing the iPhone 4.  If you have any newer data on the iPhone 4 that is not contained in the iPhone 5 backup, you'll need to save that first.  When you're ready, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, then go through the set screens on the iPhone 4 and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud backup and follow the prompt, choosing the backup of your iPhone 5 to restore to.  Be sure it is connected to wifi and your charger as it is restoring the backup.

    Connect your iPhone to your computer. Tp your pc should recognize your iPhone as a camera. Use what ever application you have on the pc to transfer files from a camera to your computer.

  • How do i download photos from a disc to iPhoto

    How do I download photos from a disc to iPhoto on my Mac?

    What kind of disk?  How was the disk created?  Generally speaking if it's a data disk just select the image files on the disk and drag it into the open iPhoto Library window. 
    With a little more detail of what we're dealing with here we can be more specific.
