  • How can I copy a Font Book library with "Collections" to my 2nd laptop?

    How can I copy a Font Book library with "Collections" to my 2nd laptop?
    I have a number of fonts (approx. 500) on my work laptop which are sorted to different Collections. I'd like to have a copy of the Font Book library with Collections on the laptop I use at home to work. I'd think there was a more straight forward way to do it, but I haven't found any posts regarding the matter so any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    To anyone who is reading this based on needing to copy their Font Book to another machine as I do, there is a way to make a copy of the fonts in Font Book by going to file/export fonts. Keep in mind that you will need to have all the fonts selected (command A) in your "All Fonts" list for them to be exported. You will then have a new folder saved to where ever you chose, with all your Font Book fonts in it.

  • HT1688 How i could find my I phone 4s which is stolen , and how i get copy of my photos that i stored in i phone it'self ?

    Hi
    please ,How i could find my I phone 4s which is stolen , and how i  could get copy of my photos that i have stored in i phone it'self ?

    Your only chance is with the Find My iPhone option with a free Apple iCloud account.
    Were you accessing an iCloud account on your iPhone with Find My iPhone turned on with the account settings?
    iCloud also includes a PhotoStream feature which can stream the photos in the Camera Roll to your computer as well as to other iOS devices.
    If not being used and you didn't import the photos with your computer as with any other digtial camera nor update your iPhone's backup since the photos were captured, the photos are gone unless your iPhone is re-covered as is.

  • How do i copy and paste photo files

    I have only recently become an iMac user and can't find a way to copy and paste photos which in turn is giving me lots more folders than I want.
    Is there a 'dummies' way of learning?
    Thanks

    I have worked it out!  WooHoo!!
    I was trying to copy and paste 4 photos at a time from one folder to another but instead of going from folder to folder, I was actually going from folder to individual photos column.  Probably doesn't make sense to you, but it's all good now.
    thank you for your help

  • How do I copy & transfer iPhoto library from one mac to another?

    I have a Power mac G5 and want to transfer a complete copy of my iPhoto 6 library (with all the specific albums) from my Power mac G5 to a new mac mini. I have an external drive. Is there a way to do this operation direct, between computers, or do I go through the external drive? Which do you recommend and how do I do this?
    After the copy transfer is completed, in the future, when I add new photos to my iPhoto library on my G5 and I want to transfer a copy of the new photos to the mac mini, do I follow the same process you outline above? Will the future copy transfer require I delete the library on the mac mini, and make a new complete copy transfer, or will a future transfer only pick-up the new photos?
    Thanks,
    HDP

    1 - connect the two machines together (a network or firewire target mode) quit iPhoto and drag the iuPhoto library from the old to th enew machine
    2 - alternatively you can connect the EHD to the old machine, drag the iPhoto library to it, move it to the new machine and drag the iPhoto library to the picturews folde on it
    3 - there is no way to sync the libraries - if the two are on a network you could use iPhoto library manager (only if both use the same version of iPhoto ) or use image capture to move the photo to the desktop from the camera and tehn impor tthem into both - but you can not automatically sync them you have to load the photos twice or use IPLM to do it

  • How do I download my contact photos to my Mac?

    I cannot seem to be able to save my contact photos to my mac. It does not appear on the Camera Roll. The photos were taken as I added new contacts and now I would like to save the whole picture. The contact sync with Address Book only gives a small thumbnail. Is this possible?

    So... is there any way to at least view the contact photos as full-screen images on the iPhone, or do I have to wait for my contact to call me if I want to view their photo as anything other than the thumbnail that appears on the contact screen? I just can't believe that since the photo shows up full-screen when they call that there's no way for me to view it that way outside of a call. Why wouldn't photos taken to be used as contact images be saved in the Camera Roll photo album?

  • How do you view iPhone/iPad Notes on your Mac laptop?

    How do you set up to view the Notes on your iPhone or iPad through iCloud on your Mac laptop?  I'm unable to figure it out.  I am running the latest versions of OS and IOS.  I would like my Notes to always sync through iCloud.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.  - Terry

    On your iPhone and iPad, go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your iCloud account and turn Notes to On (you will also need to set up an iCloud email account in order to sync notes with iCloud, even if you don't use it).  Confirm that in Settings>Notes that the Default Account is set to iCloud.
    On you MBP, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign into your iCloud account and check Notes.  Open the Notes app and confirm that Notes>Default Account is set to iCloud.
    After that new notes should sync between your devices using iCloud as long as you haven't selected a different account to create the note in.  If you have existing notes on your iOS devices that were created prior to setting up iCloud notes syncing, you'll have to copy and paste the text into new notes created in the iCloud account in order to sync them with iCloud.  Any notes on your Mac that are not in the iCloud account can simply be dragged and dropped to iCloud within the Notes app in order to add them to iCloud.

  • How can I copy about 2000 photos off the Ipad 4?

    A friend has a 16gb Ipad 4 which now shows 800mb free space, due to the fact that it's filled with photos, sitting in Iphoto.  He cannot update anything now due to being out of space, so he has asked me to help him move the photos off to another machine and then delete them from the Ipad.  He apparently has no other copies of these shots.
    After reading dozens of posts about this, it appears to me that there really isn't any coherent method of simply marking and copying photos once they're in Iphoto on the Ipad 4.  After connecting it to the Mac via the USB cable, there's not much that is revealed.  And viewed from Windows, the DCIM folder which is where we generally expect to find these things shows only 13 photos.  Where are the rest of them?
    All I have found is that I'll have to use an "external application" to do this; however, installing several of these has led me to being able to only copy the "new pictures" that apparently are on his camera roll.  There are only about 13 of these.  Another app led me to being able to copy albums, but he only has about 177 of the photos identified as being in an album.
    So that leaves the thousands of shots that sit in Iphoto, apparently marooned.  Is it really possible that the only way to get these photos is to go though some sort of sync process with itunes or icloud?
    Seems fairly clunky to me.  I would expect to be able to simply mark a folder, and drag it "somewhere else" rather than going through all the hoops it appears to require to do this.
    Anyone?
    Bueller?
    Thanks,

    How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • How do you copy time machine photos from a G Drive back onto Macbook?

    I have a white Macbook that was loaded with over a thousand photos. I bought a G Drive external harddrive and used time machine to backup the files. However, now that the photos are off of the copy, and on the harddrive, when i plug in the harddrive, i can no longer find the photos.
    Suggestions?

    If you have a Time Machine compatible version of iPhoto, you should be able to just select the Time Machine icon while iPhoto is open to look back in its history.  If you don't have a Time machine compatible version of iPhoto, you'll need to search for the photos you are looking for by file name while viewing your Time Machine backup.  If they don't appear, make sure the hard drive is indexed first by Spotlight by making sure it is not in the Privacy section of Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Spotlight.

  • How do i identify all RAW photos in my Mac and have them removed - taking too much space.

    I have a Macbook Air and I keep getting message that I'm out of space. i have emptied the trash but no difference. I believe it is the photos - I have impoted quite a bit of RAW photo files - how do i identify them and then delete them. I dont want to have 2 formats of the same photos.

    The process is simple - but tedious.
    Select the photos and export them, saving them as Jpegs.
    Trash the Library. Make a new one. Import the Jpegs.
    Alternatively: move the Library:
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    If you're intent on trashing the Raws, you have a couple of bigger questions to consider: why are you shooting raw if you're going to trash them? Why are you using iPhoto, which is designed for a non-destructive workflow, if you want a destrucutve one?
    Regards

  • How can I transfer photos from my Mac laptop to my Iphone5?

    I want to create more storage on my Iphone5 by deleting the photos after importing them, but the easiest way to do so seems to be to delete all of them at once using my laptop. However, I want a handful of them left on my IPhone. How do I transfer some of the imported photos back to the phone?

    In addition to syncing with iTunes you could simply drop the photos that you want back on your iPhone into your Photo Stream to send them back or download them again to the iPhone.Or create a Shared Photo Stream of the photos you want to keep on your iPhone.
