How to import images onto iMac from MBP?

I know I've made this work in the past but now, I'm not sure how. Came back from a trip with several hundred photos on iPhoto on my MBP(running SL). i would like to import them into Aperture on my iMac(Leopard).I think that in the past I copied the files into my Public folder on the MBP and would be able to import wirelessly into Aperture on the iMac. I have File Sharing enabled on both machines. Now Aperture on the iMac appears to see the MBP Public Folder but no photos show up in it. I must be missing something here but I'm not sure what. Is there some other straight forward to way to move the files from the MBP to the iMac short of burning them to a dvd or connecting the two via firewire?
Thanks in advance.
Jim

If you simply enable File Sharing on the MBP: Sys prefs -> Sharing -> File Sharing -> On.
And then on your iMac use the Finder sidebar -> Shared -> click on your laptop's name in the list -> choose connect as -> fill in your username/password as it is on the MBP and you should be able to select all partitions on the MBP, and your own user folder (and perhaps public folders).
And you should have read/write permissions so you can copy the files over.

How to import images and keywords from Nikon PictureProject to LR2?

I have several thousand pictures that I have captured with my Nikon cameras (the present being a D300). I have imported those to my Mac (OS X) using the Nikon PictureProject software. This software has now been discontinued by Nikon, and I have switched to using Lightroom 2 instead. But when I try to import my photo library from Nikon PictureProject all the keywords describing the images are eliminated and I only get a date and number. This is obviously creating a big problem. Nikon has replied that they have no solution to propose! Has anyone else been exposed to the same difficulty? And has some creative person found a solution?
Thank you for your assistance!

Thank you for your help! My wife Marianne who has the problem has used PictureProject in a very special way. She has typed in the keywords on the line where PictureProject gives the basic information about the photo DCS3_7325 for example. Where DCS3 shows it is a digital Nikon camera D300 and the 7325 is the camera's (own I imagine) number for the original photo.
In front of this my wife has written the description of the photos e.g. "Paris bridges Pont Neuf". (And not in the place provided by PictureProject for keywords.)
It has been possible to search the photos by typing in the added words.
Do you think that this additional (not intended by PictureProject) information could be imported to Lightroom2?
Thank you for using your experience to see if this can be solved.

How to import songs onto iPod from two computers?

this probably was posted before, but is there anyway to upload songs from two different computers?
i have songs on my mom's computer that i dont have on my dads.

Try turning off auto-update. Right click your iPod, and go to iPod Options. Under music, click 'manually manage songs and playlist.' It should work after that. You will probabl have to do it on both computers.

How do i sign onto iCloud from my android phone

How do I sign onto Icloud from my android phone? ifr i download imail to android, does it remove it from my imac or just send it both places?

Hi Chosen4,
If you are looking for more information on setting up your iCloud account in 3rd party mail applications, you may find the following article helpful:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
iCloud uses the IMAP mail protocol (as opposed to POP), where messages are maintained on the server and should stay uniform across multiple devices:

Can some please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates? I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my Mac

Can someone please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates? I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my new Mac. I ended up getting a bunch of duplicates. My old Mac has an older version of iPhoto while the new Mac has iPhoto '11. Is that the cause of the problem? Please advise. Thanks.

Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

How to import SQLite .db file from AIR project

hi friends..
how to import SQLite.db file from AIR project. and i want use this in my application.
after importing can i update and delete the recordS?

There's no import needed. You just open it using the AIR SQL APIs. If this database file was created outside AIR, it's not necessarily compatible, though. There are SQLite features and extensions that aren't supported in AIR.

import is a bad word to use in this context
it's better to say 'how to load an image' i guess

How do I upgrade my iMac from OSX10.5.8 to Mountain Lion?

How do I upgrade my iMac from OSX10.5.8 to Mountain Lion? I'm guessing I have to first purchase Snow Leopard? Is there anyway to download or upgrade online?

First, determine how high you can upgrade.
SL requires an Intel processor and 1 GB RAM, though more RAM is better.
Lion requires Core2Duo processor and 2 GB RAM, though more RAM is better.
Mountain Lion has higher requirements: http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
Also review applications that do not work under Lion or ML to see if you will lose critical functionality: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Research first, as too many have discovered only after the upgrade that things are lost to them.
You can buy SL or Lion from 1-800-MY-APPLE. SL is a disk ($19 single disk license, $29 for 5-user license). Lion will be a $19 download code to use in App Store that you get with SL.

HT4489 how to import Contacts in iCloud from Exchange?

how to import Contacts in iCloud from Exchange?

This usually works:
Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (they will still be in iCloud).
Download the app My Contacts Backup. Use this to backup the remaining contacts on your phone (from your exchange account) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself. Confirm that you have received the email.
Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), set this to iCloud. (This will cause new contacts added to your phone to be added to the iCloud account.)
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and turn off contacts syncing with your exchange account (otherwise you will end up with duplicates on your phone).
Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from your exchange account back to your phone and to iCloud.

HOW TO IMPORT MY EMAILS (MESSAGES) FROM OUTLOOK 2007?

Into what email program on the Mac?
Mail
Outlook for Mac '11
Entourage '04/'08
Thunderbird
Eudora
... etc
If it's going into Mail you'll need to do a work around, it's not a "straight" transfer unless you buy a 3rd party application called Outlook2Mac.

HELP: How do I use iPhoto 08 to import images onto my iPhone 3G?

Hi,
I was wondering how best to import images into my iPhone 3G for viewing.
Most of my image files are large high quality 2 -4 MB files.
Is there an easy way to downsize the files for viewing on the iPhone 3G? Does iPhoto have a setting specific for import/export use with the iPhone?
How do I set a specific photo as the phone's wallpaper and does it have to be specifically sized to use as wallpaper?
I have read the iPhone 3G manual but it was less than helpful just saying "Use iPhoto to import photos onto your iPhone"...

here is a thread with lots of discussion of this topic - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1618079&tstart=105
In general you make album(s) of the photos you want on the iPhone and sync the album(s)

How to import images from iPhone 5 into Lightroom 4?

After a recent iTunes software update, I can't import images from my iPhone 5 into Lightroom 4. Now Lightroom doesn't even recognize that the iPhone is connected, nor does the Finder, which explains why I can't choose it as an import source. Instead the iPhone only shows up in iTunes when connected. Surely someone else has run into this issue. Any known solutions/suggestions/work-arounds?
