How to transfer images from iPHoto on one Ext. HD to another

I have almost 19,000 images in my iPhoto. I backed all of them up to a portable HD for a trip I took last week, so I could use them on my laptop. Of those, there are approximately 1,000 images that are new from the trip,  that I saved onto the iPhoto on the portable HD.
How can I transfer those new images from the portable HD to my main iPhoto Library, which is on a different external HD?
Thanks.

I should have mentioned that my iMac is now updated to 10.8.5, and the laptop is a Macbook Pro using 10.6.8, They both have iPhoto '09. The externals are all formatted correctly for the Macs.

  • How to transfer bookmarks from Safari on one computer over to another?

    I have two computers, both running Safari 1.3.x in OSX 10.3.9. The computers are connected via Ethernet so I can transfer any files I want between them.
    Computer A, my old computer, has all my hundreds of bookmarks in Safari. Computer B, my new computer, has no bookmarks yet. How can I transfer all my bookmarks en masse from the Safari on Computer A to the Safari on Computer B?
    There must be a file or something that contains all the bookmarks, but I can't figure out which one it is.
    Thanks.

    Never mind, I discovered the answer myself after a bit of poking around. The file is called "Bookmarks.plist" and is found in the user's "Library>Safari" under 10.3.9. I simply threw away the "Bookmarks.plist" from my new computer, then copied the old computer's "Bookmarks.plist" to the same location on the new computer, then fired up Safari on the new computer -- voila! All the old bookmarks appeared in the new version of Safari on the new computer.
    Problem solved.

    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.

    Connect the iPad to your MBP and open iTunes.  In the photos section of your iPad in iTunes you can choose selected albums, Events or the entire iPhoto library to sync to your iPad.

  • How to Transfer photo from iPhoto to a windows pc ?

    Hi everybody, I'm looking for how to transfer photo from iphoto to a windows pc. I can't copy photo from iphoto to put in on a USB key ...
    Please help me !!!

    I put the screenshots in order:

    2. File/Export
    3. Select quality and format of export
    4. Choose where, now create a folder or may have created it before

  • If I barrow an image from iPhoto, that is drag it to another file or the desktop it seems to half disappear.  It still shows until I try to enlarge it then I get a triangle exclamation mark in the enlarged field, once I return to Photos or an Album it is

    If I barrow an image from iPhoto, that is drag it to another file or the desktop it seems to half disappear.  It still shows until I try to enlarge it then I get a triangle exclamation mark in the enlarged field, once I return to Photos or an Album it is there.  However it can no longer be dragged into another file.  How can I recover these images?  Is there a better way to duplicate a image to locate in outside of iPhoto?
    I never had this problem in previous versions of iPhoto.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the link to the original file.
    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • EFilm card reader with a fuji film HD card can't transfer images from iphoto to sd card

    I have a MacBook Pro running OSX.  I am using an eFilm card reader with an XD picture card.  I want to transfer my images from iPhoto on my macbook pro to this XD picture card.  iPhoto doesn't recognize the card and photos will not transfer.  Help!  There was one photo on the card and it successfully transfered from the picture card into iphoto but I can't get it to do the reverse.  Thanks so much for the help.

    Select the photo(s) in iPhoto and export (file menu ==> export - see this user tip for export options) to a desktop folder and then drag the photos from that folder to the desired location on your XD card

  • How to transfer photos from iPhoto to external hard drive?, How to transfer photos from iPhoto to external hard drive?

    Hello folks
    My start up disk is full and I've been advised to delete some items
    from my computer. I have too much pix/videos. How do I transfer them
    from iphoto to an external HD?
    Thanks

    just move your iPhoto library to the extrnal drive being sure it is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) -
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • How to transfer images from Recently added in iOS8?

    Hi
    when I used to download images on my iPad or iPhone, they went to camera roll and they were easy to transfer to iMac with Image Capture when connected with USB. Now Camera Roll is gone in iOS 8 and Image Capture does not see the images on Recently Added. How to transfer images to iMac now under iOS8? I am completely at a loss. How can this be so poorly instructed - I find no info on this and I am sure I am not the only one struggling with this.
    Thanks a lot for any help!

  • How can transfer images from lightroom to LaCie external drive?

    How can i export images from lightroom toLaCie external drive?

    Hi welcome!
    It's possible that your description of what you want to do is a bit ambiguous.
    Are you wanting to move your images from an internal drive to an external drive?
    Are you wanitng to actually export images out of Lightroom with the destination being an external drive (a very different propostion to the above option)?
    Is there something else that you are actually wanting to do?
    Also Lightroom does not hold the images themselves.
    Lightroom has a database (called a catalog) that references the location of images that have been imported.

  • How to transfer photos from backup of one iphone to a different iphone.

    I have a iphone5 that was water damaged. It turns on and has display but it does not respond to Swipe in order to unlock the phone: basically useless.  I did have a back up to desktop (Windows 7) a few weeks ago. I got a new iphone 5.  Contacts were restored from iCloud but I cannot figure out how to transfer the photos from the old phone’s backup onto the new phone. Is this possible to do?  Thank you.

    I provided a link in my response to the OP.  Base on your limited information, if you backup prior to restoring, then restore from your backup.
