How to import photos into new Photos beta app

I am trying to figure out how to import photos from an auxiliary (i.e., not my main)  iPhoto library into the new beta Photos app. Has anyone been able to do this?  Thanks.

You can't import a one library into another library with either Photos or iPhoto.  You could with iPhoto if the library to be imported was created by iPhoto 6 or earlier and still had a normal folder for the library.  Since iPhoto 7 libraries became packages and  can't be imported into another library.

    In iPhoto 9.4.3 the following works:
    If you have not auto imported the photos from the Photo Stream, as Larry suugests, select the photos that you want to import in the Photo Stream, and drag them to the "Events" view in the Source List. They will be imported as new events, auto split with respect to your preferences.

    What program and version do you have on your Mac computer - Photoshop Elements and its Elements Organizer or Premiere Elements and its Elements Organizer?
    The nature of your question suggests that you may be dealing with Photoshop Elements and its Elements Organizer. If that is the case, please post your question in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum.

  • HT204414 how to merge my iPhoto Library into my Photos System Library or how to import photos from iPhoto to Photos?

    Can anyone tell me how to merge my iPhoto Library into my Photos System Library or how to import photos from iPhoto to Photos?

    How many did you trash at one go? iPhoto will baulk and possibly corrupt if you try trash too many at one go. Expereinced users recommend getting rid of them in batches of about 100 or so.
    What's your plan for the remaining images in the iPhoto Library (the 2k photos and 4 videos)?

    How to import photo from album in Iphone into computer?

    You can't. You can import from the Camera Roll only.
    Photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process should remain on your computer. Photos transferred from your computer are optimized for viewing on your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process - the original resolution of these photos is reduced, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported. These photos should remain on your computer and be included with your computer's backup.
    There are some 3rd party paid utilities that provide for transferring these photos in the opposite direction but such utilities are not supported by Apple and the original resolution of these photos will be lost.
    Here is one such utility.

  • How to import Photos into Active Directory

    Hi -
    IT Director asked me to import employees pictures into Active Directory so that we can use them in Outlook, SharePoint, Lync etc.
    Do you know how to import pictures into Active Directory?

    Thumbnailphoto Attribute in active directory is responsible for adding photos to Active directory.
    By Default Replication of this attribute will be disabled to Global catalog server. To make use of this facility we will have to enable replication of this attribute to Global Catalog. ( To accomplish this you will have to edit the schema using Active directory
    schema snap in).
    Refer Below link which explains about enabling the replication of Thumbnailphoto attribute to Global catalog.
    http://www.msexchange.org/articles_tutorials/exchange-server-2010/management-administration/configuring-using-display-picture-exchange-server-2010.html
    Requirements
    Minimum requirement for your exchange enviornment to use this - Exchange 2010.
    Exchange 2007 Don't support uploading photos AFAIK.
    Domain controller should be running with atleast windows server 2008 or later. And
    schema has to be windows server 2008

    How to remove the uploaded photos?
    Either You can edit the Thumbnailphoto attribute using ADSIedit and remove the entry which is assocaited with Thumbnailphoto attribute.
    Or,
    Try this.
    The Import-RecipientDataProperty and Export-RecipientDataProperty cmdlets allow you to import and export the photo blob to and from
    thumbnailPhoto attribute, but there's no Remove-RecipientDataProperty cmdlet to remove it. You can use the
    RemovePicture switch of Set-Mailbox cmdlet to remove a user's photo. For example:
    Set-Mailbox "Bharat Suneja" -RemovePicture

    Hi Barbara,
    Your information has been very helpful and I do appreciate your kind assistance
    I have contacted iTunes and they are going to refund my money which is great.
    I went to store and purchased Adobe Photoshop and Premier (single package) Elements 10 s. I am using a new iMac with OS 10.7.4
    The Photoshop installed OK but she I chose to import photos from my camera and chose to create new folder named as the date shot a new folder is created but it totally shows the wrong date, I am sure we are not in 1970 or 1999 LOL. This happened with both a Canon Powershot and a Canon EOS camera. This problem does not occur with Picasa which works perfectly and does beg the question why I am persisting with Adobe products!
    The Premiere (on the same disk as Photoshop) will not install and I get the following error message
    Exit Code: 7

    You'll have to do that manually, i.e. export each album of photos to a folder with the same name located on your hard drive via  the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option.

  • How to import photos from iphone

    I can not import my photos from my iphone6 to my Macbook pro. I have plugged it in and clicked import and nothing happens. It's very frustrating. I've tried unplugging and re-plugging the phone. I've tried restarting the computer but it will not let me saying "photos are being imported". Though at this point my phone is no longer plugged in.

    Hey Adysnow,
    Thanks for the question. What application are you using to import the photos on your Mac? iPhoto? Image Capture? Whichever you are using, let’s try to isolate the issue by using the other:

    Tags are keywords.
    Other metadata:
    There is no way to share Faces from one system to another. Places will happen automatically if your photos have the gps co-ordinates in the Metadata. Events are populted depending on the choices you make in the iPhoto Preferences.
    Again, I'm not sure exactly what you're hoping for here, sorry.

    how to import photo from laptop to iphone? is it possible to do so?

    You're welcome.
    The photos are imported from the Camera Roll, not synced.
    Mac or Windoze PC?
    Which application on your computer are you using for the import?
    With a Mac, both iPhoto and the Image Capture application include an option and a prompt to delete the photos from the Camera Roll are the import process is complete - as when importing photos from any other digital camera.
    The Windoze Scanner and Camera Wizard includes the same.
