How to move images from Picasa to Lightroom 5 on a mac?

How to import images from Picasa to Lightroom 5 on a mac?

Hi, lnmyers,
I have thousands of pictures stored in Picasa, all of which are stored in my Picasa Web Albums. They are no longer in a directory on my hard-drive, that particular hard-drive having died ages ago. Thank goodness I uploaded them to Picasa's cloud before the hard-drive died. Should that ever darken, I am in trouble. I digress. I downloaded the pictures I wanted from Picasa Web Albums to my new external hard-drive that I set up and attached to my mac. For example:  I had a an album called "California 2013" stored in the Picasa cloud. I downloaded the entire album to a folder on my Seagate external drive that I call Lightroom within which I have a folder called California 2013. It took about twenty minutes to get them all (300+ photos). Then, I pointed LR to the California 2013 folder on the Seagate external drive when I wanted to catalogue the pictures into LR. I did not worry about metadata; I took whatever came with the pictures and didn't worry about it. I added copyright, keywords, and ownership info with LR. 
I hope that helps.

  • I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

    I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

    I am talking about the Ver 3 download link that came with the purchase email.
    That link is no longer available. Use "Migration Assistant" to copy your Applications from your old mac to the new Mac, then immediately run software update. Aperture Version 3.2 will not run on your new mac with Mavericks, you will have to Upgrade to version 3.4.5 at least - you can download this update from the Support page: Aperture 3.4.5
    Then launch Aperture and enter your registration key and try now too update from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 from the AppStore. The AppStore will change your Aperture registration to an AppStore version, so you will able to reinstall by downloading from the AppSTore in future.
    If you want transfer only Aperture and no other applications, do it manually: You will have to copy not only the application but folders from the libraries as well:
    /Applications/Aperture.app
    /Library/Application Support/Aperture/
    ~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/

    How to transfer images from my iPad air  to my mac?
    If I use iphoto software, I can't see the ipad air on the browser...

    You can directly transfer photos and videos via WiFi between the iDevices, PCs, and Macs with an App like Photo Transfer.
    See: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/photo-transfer-app-easily/id365152940?mt=8
    Or you can upload the photos and videos to the Dropbox service using the Dropbox App on the iDevice, PC, or Mac and download them to the another device using the Dropbox App on that device. By the way, once the videos are on Dropbox you can share them with others.

  • How to move image from one hard drive to another - T41

    Hi All
    I have a T41 which has a 30GB hard drive, over the time I have installed quite a few programs which I don't have the cd's for to reinstall. Now that I am almost out of space I need to swap my present Hard Drive with another one. I already bought a 60GB HD for the laptop but I don't want to just swap it, what I want to do is make an image of the existing HD and past it in the new HD and then swap the HD so that I have everything from my previous HD.
    Can I do this with Ghost 2003 or maybe with anyother ghost app. Also what if I just make a backup of the registry and system state through windows backup tools then install windows XP in the new HD and then restore the restore the system state and registry from the backup. In this wall I will loose the hidden partition.
    Please advice whether I can image of the current HD and then move it to the new HD.
    Thanks in advance 

    Thanks for the responses for far, I really appriciate it.
    Ok, I have two question for two response I received:
    To infocatchjp:
    1. I didn't find any connector for "ThinkPad 2nd HDD Adapter for Ultrabay Slim".
    2. Rescue and recovey is a windows tool or built in IBM tool.
    3. Would it tranfer the program as well and also the hidden partition for the laptop.
    To stbigham:
    I went to the website for the given software and checked out its feature. My only question is would the software transfer the existing and hidden partition when it is moved to the new HD.
    thank you both for your support. Hope to hear from you soon.

  • How to save images from Photoshop to Lightroom 5.4?

    I edit images in Photoshop CC, save and I don't see the images in Lightroom. This started happening when I upgraded to version 5.4. I've glanced at other threads that spoke to the same issue and I've tried all of the suggestions to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

    Don't know if this is because I am using IMAP to connect to gmail so it doesn't really see them (but seems to work with other pictures emailed to me) or whether it is due to the iPhone 'embedding' the images rather than attaching them?
    Photos sent as true attachments to the message are not embedded with the iPhone's Mail client. Photos sent as true attachments are displayed inline or viewed in place within the body of the message, which is not the same as being embedded.
    Doing this with an email client on your computer, there should be nothing special or different with the photos emailed by your iPhone with your Gmail account. I regularly send photos with my MobileMe account from my iPhone, and I can save the photos sent with my MobileMe account from the account's server stored Sent mailbox with the Mail.app on my Mac. I haven't tried to save all photos sent from every sent message in my account's Sent mailbox in bulk, but the photos are sent as true attachments to the message.

  • How do I get an image from Picasa and transfer it to photoshop to work on it.?

    how do I obtain an image from picasa and bring it to ps to work on it?

    Are you using a Windows system, and do you have File Explore set to show extensions?  I am wondering if the file name might look like:
    'Starbirds Picture.jpg.tiff'  ?
    The fact that you say the image looks different after reducing its bit depth makes me think you are right about it being 32 bit, but as Chris said, it can't be a JPG.
    Your computer monitor is not capable of displaying the full tonal range of a 32bit image produced by an HDR program like Photomatix or Photoshop, so it has to make compromises.  You have to chose what process to use to reduce its bit depth to give it the look you are after.  I prefer Photomatix for HDR.  If you install a trial version and open your 32 bit image in it, you can then chose one of the options to convert it to 16 or 8 bit.  These might be Tone Mapping, Exposure Fusion, or Tone Compression.   Tone Mapping is the option that produces the typical HDR look.
    But you are using Photoshop.  I haven't noticed what version you are using, but Google Photoshop (your version) HDR processing, and you'll see how to control the end look of the image.

  • Can't MOVE images from one project to another: must not understand

    Greetings,
    I have two questions as a result of aperture not working the way that I have read on forums etc. and am wondering what i am doing wrong
    1) How do I MOVE images from project to project without duplicating masters or versions
    2) how do I delete versions
    All of my files are referenced.
    *1) moving from project to project*
    I have a blue folder called "NEFs." In it, I have a default project where I just dump all of my images called "00 dump." After I dump them, I organize into other projects. So, I do the following:
    • I create a new project called "2008 Thanksgiving" inside the NEFs blue folder making it a sibling to "00 dump"
    • I go back to "00 dump" select all the images that were shot over thanksgiving, and drag to the "2008 thanksgiving" folder. The images transfer fine, but when I go back to "00 dump" I see that the images have NOT actually moved, they are now sitting in both projects. How can this be? I thought that if I move images from project to project then I am actually moving the master, not replicating a version? That leads me to my next dilemma
    *2) how do I delete versions?*
    Now that I have replicated photos in my "2008 Thanksgiving" project, I want to delete them since I see them still sitting in "00 dump." I do the following:
    • select the "2008 Thanksgiving" project
    • select a number of images
    • press command + delete (this is the only way to delete a file as far as I can tell
    • popup comes up explaining that if I delete this file it will delete the master too and the reference file. So, that's exactly what it does.
    Deleting the referenced file is fine for many junk images, but in this case, I just want to delete the copied version that seems to be in two projects now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really love a full understanding of how this structure works.
    -i

    When you drag images and the drop target is an actual little yellow project box (not a folder, and album or anything else) the images move from one project to another, if your drop target is not the actual project but something else within another project all you do is cause the version to show up there, nothing is duplicated.
    To delete a version or versions selected just use command-delete. This gets rid of the actual version not just removes it from the current album view. If it happens to be the last version of that master it will get rid of the master as well.

  • How to copy images from another MC in reversed order??

    Hi everyone,
    I'm new to AS3 and have been fighting and searching for a solution to this problem for a week now, and I'm VERY close!
    I crated a MC holding of a series of images (about 50) and I jump around in it using plenty AS3 scripts (most of which I don't fully understand yet, but I'm working on that to! )
    I had to find a way to "rewind" (= play backwards) the MC. Since there is a stop(); command in almost every frame, prevFrame does not work and if I put that in a loop, it goes WAY to fast (but worked).. So I could think of only one way...
    Create a new (reverserd) MC with the same image sequence ald reverse it manually and play that one.
    This all works fine (very proud of it ).
    Now my question:
    To get this to work for multiple image sequences, I have to load all images twice (once in MC_1 and again in MC_2 and select them and reverse them).
    Not a big one, unless you want to create MANY of those SWF's...
    Is it possible to load the 50 images of the first MC in reverse into the second MC dynamically? JUST the images, noting else.
    extra info: the MC_2 is already in the lib(empty) and placed on the stage.
    something like:
    var pointer:Number=1;
    for (var:i:Number=50;i>=0;i--) {
    get MC_1.picure(var);
    put it in MC_2.frame(pointer);
    pointer = pointer + 1;
    All help is welcome and please take into account that I have little experience and copy most of my scripting from people like you
    T.I.A.
    Melluw

    I tried your advice (thanks for that)
    The event I already have is the mouse leave
    I //-d out the part I removed (what did work)
    The code I ended up with is:
    function Start() {
    stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, cursorHide);
    function cursorHide(evt:Event):void {
    var currFrame = MC_1.currentFrame;
    if (CCW == true) {  //it is true in this case
      movStart = (50 - currFrame);
    else {
      movStart = currFrame;
    if (movStart>25) {
      MC_1.prevFrame();
    // removed swapChildren(MC_1, MC_2); // This is the part I removed
    // removed MC_2.gotoAndPlay(movStart);
    else {
      MC_1.gotoAndPlay (movStart);
    And if I leave the stage on the part where movStart is indeed >25
    Nothing happens,
    So I guess this is not what you meant
    Subject: Action Script 3 how to copy images from another MC in reversed order??
    I cannot direct you in the loading of the images approach, it will be too complicated, and will probably not work anyways... when you move away from a frame that has dynamic content, you lose the content.  So basically, there is nothing practical in taking that approach.
    I do niot understand what the problem will be with the enterFrame/prevFrame approach. If everything you can do with the mouse is already used (which I doubt) by the first mc, then there is nothing else you can do with this file.  You probably just need to rethink your control scheme.  You should search Google for "AS3 slideshow tutorial", and to lighten up your design, add "XML" in that search.

  • Cant' move images from frame to frame inside a Grid in InDesign. Please Help

    When creating a grid in indesign there is an option to move images from frame to frame, and having them rotate around the frames to see where each image is best to be placed. Example I created a grid with 6 images (2 rows and 3 columns) and now i want image 1 to be where image 6 is. I know there's a way by hitting the arrows and some other keys and have all the images start rotating. I did it once I just can't remember. Please help. How do you move the an image from one frame to another frame without having to go to edit place?

  • How to move files between folders within Lightroom 3?

    I would like to move a file from one folder to another within Lightroom 3 (let's not discuss why). I searched the threads but couldn't find the answer (maybe I missed it). When I click on a photo within grid view then drag and drop that file onto a different folder in the folder panel (to do the move), a little plus sign (copy) appears and a copy of the file is placed in the second folder. If I try to delete the photo from the original folder (to get the move), both copies of the file are removed. I've tried holding down all sorts of keys on the imac but cannot get the move to work. Ideally, I'd like to move a group of photos but cannot even move one. Does anyone know how to move files between folders in Lightroom 3?

    Your suggestion works. Thank you for posting it.

  • How to move data from a staging table to three entity tables #2

    Environment: SQL Server 2008 R2
    I have a few questions:
    How would I prevent duplicate records, when/ IF SSIS is executed many times?
    How would I know that all huge volume of data being loaded in the entity tables?
    In reference to "how to move data from a staging table to three entity tables ", since I am loading large volume of data, while using lookup transformation:
    which of the merge components is best suited.
    How to configure merge component correctly. (screen shot is preferred) 
    Please refer to the following link
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/5f2128c8-3ddd-4455-9076-05fa1902a62a/how-to-move-data-from-a-staging-table-to-three-entity-tables?forum=sqlintegrationservices

    You can use RowCount transformation in the path where you want to capture record details. Then inside rowcount transformation pass a integer variable to get count value inside
    the event handler can be configured as below
    Inside Execute SQL task add INSERT statement to add rowcount to your audit table
    Can you also show me how to Check against destination table using key columns inside a lookup task and insert only non
    matched records (No Match output)
    This is explained clearly in below link which Arthur posted
    http://www.sqlis.com/sqlis/post/Get-all-from-Table-A-that-isnt-in-Table-B.aspx
    For large data I would prefer doing this in T-SQL. So what you could do is dump data to staging table and then apply
    T-SQL MERGE between tables (or even a combination of INSERT/UPDATE statements)

    Hi All,
    I have 11gR2 RAC env on Linux.
    As ofnow I have problem with disk group. I have 3 disk group which is almost full - 98%. I have added one NEW disk group and want to move some of the Tablespace(TBS) from OLD disk group to NEW diskgroup and make some free space in OLD disk group.
    Can any one suggest me how to move TBS from one disk group to another disk grup without shutting down the instance.

    Hence I am trying something and findout below steps but not sure how useful it is:

    I had move 240M TBS from OLE to NEW.
    These steps run successfully so I think this is valid for noarchive mode.Hence want to confirm..so inform me please.
    Thanks :)I have doubt in my mind:
    1. You database is in noarchivelog mode
    2. You're taking tablespace offline
    3. Suppose you're moving a file of size 10GB(or any larger filesize) to another disk group
    4. Now after moving the file, you're trying to bring the tablespace online............NOW
    tablespace will need recovery. if the required data is inside the SGA then it is ok. But if the data has been flushed, then?
    if step 2 and 3 has taken significant time, then most probably you'll not be able to bring that tablespace online.
