How to use iPhoto two computers?

how can I transfer my slideshows and iPhoto Library to another Computer?

o move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
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.

Hi AndrewHISC
We would need to cancel one of the subscriptions and then you could sign up again using another ID.
Let me know if you wish to proceed with this.

How to sync with two computers not at the same time, I'm registerd with one computer

How to sync with two computers (not at the same time), I'm registered with one computer and am trying to connect with second computer with same iPhone. To sync the first time with the second PC "Firefox Sync Option tells me Create New account or Connect, when I connect it gives me a Passcode and on iPhone it also gives me a Passcode, than how do I connect? Both the iPhone and PC gives me a Passcode and have now idea what to do with them.
Where do I find my Sync Key ? so I can install manually if it works ?

Use the Sync Key ''(Recovery Key)'' from the PC that you used to initially setup your Firefox Sync service, when setting up that 2nd PC with Sync. You need to use '''Add a device''' to setup the 2nd and subsequent devices on a Sync account. <br />

HT5037 How to use iPhoto Library Upgrader

How to use iPhoto Library Upgrader

Hello Terence,
sorry that I come here with a completly different thema but I follow your answers since long and they are always excellent! And I do not know who could help... as I can not find the solution in Apple Support Communities.
I am very afraid with my MacBook Pro: midd. 2012
Prozessor: 2,3 GHz Intel Core i7
4GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 4000 384 MB
Software: OS X 10.8.5 (12F45)
Kernel-Version: Darwin 12.5.0
iPhoto 11, Version: 9.4.3 (720.91)
iPhone 4s, 64GB Version:7.0.2 (11A501),
Symptoms:
1. I have notice three days ago that Spotlight allways answers I should go to the web when I look for data in my computer. It seems that Spotlight can not find anything from my computer.
2. Timemachine has no data before the 28th. January 2014 (!?) No idea why this happens
3. In Finder window when I go to "Alle meine Daten"(= All my data) there is absolutely nothing there...it means 0 objekts are there.
4.In Systemeinformationen (=Systeminformations) if I go to Software and then to Programs... there is nothig there because the Plug-In do not react quick enough (Das Plug-In hat beim Sammeln dieser Informationen nicht schnell genug reagiert). I am asking me which Plug-In it is and where to find it...
5. On my iPhone the Photo-stream suddenly shows only 110 fotos from Dezember on, but in My MacBookPro the iPhoto Stream shows of course the lasts 1000 ones...from 25.01.2013 to 03.02.14 as it did allways before.
I am not going to sync anything until I discover what is going on...
6. On my Contacts suddenly appeared the link address of a "game" in my own card ( both in iCloud and Lokal AddressBook)... and I have never ever played an online game (!?). So I deleted this two links as I discovered them some days ago...
I do not know what is going wrong here but I'm afraid to loose all my data in the computer, so I am making a secure copy in an external drive right now...
Could it be a virus inside... a software problem may be...?
The mayor Problem is how to get the programms to work (Spotlight, etc), or how to repair them.
I'm trying to find something wrong in the Protocols I have here, for example
- the Repair protocol for users from 27.01.2012 ( /Users/Begona/Library/logs/fsck_hfs.log).
- the Datasystem-Reppairprotocol from 01.02. 14 (/var/log/fsck_hfs.log)
- the Installationsprotocol from 04.02.14...
but I am really lost.
Thank you very much for reading this, help would be high appreciated

How to fix the "Two computers using the same IP address" issue on the airport express

I just bought an airport express and got dsl at my apartment, and I haven't been able to set up the wireless connection. My DSL works just fine but whenever I hook up the AX I get an error message saying that there are two computers using the same IP address on the network, but I only have one computer.
I know this is probably a simple fix, but I've never had this issue when I set up the Extreme at my parents house and I haven't been able to find a thread on this.
As of right now I have it set to Factory settings.
Help please!

This modem was designed to connect directly to a computer and you are trying to connect it to a router.
Unfortunately, this is not a simple fix as both the modem and your AirPort Express will need to be configured differently to work together correctly.
Connect the modem directly to your computer.
Open up your browser and type the default IP address for the modem into the address bar. Check your documentation on the modem but it is likely 192.168.1.254
That will bring up the configuration page for the modem.
You may need to enter the modem access code which is on a label on the back or bottom of the device
Look for an Advanced tab, then look for a tab labeled something like PPP Location
Right now, you will see that "PPP is on the modem"
Chance that to "PPP is on the computer or router"
Click to save your new settings and the modem will restart
If you ever need to get the modem back to its original settings, you will need to hold in the reset button on the back of the modem for 5-6 seconds and then enter in the default IP address to be able to access the settings on the modem
Connect the modem to the AirPort Express with an Ethernet cable
Open AirPort Utility on your Mac and click Continue to follow the guided setup to "Create a wireless network"
You may be asked to "switch" networks when you do this. You want to switch
Select the "Connect Using PPPoe" option when it appears
Enter your user name and password with your provider. Leave the Service Name area blank. You want to always stay connected if you see that option
Continue to follow the guided setup and Update to save settings
Pull the power cord from the modem, wait a moment, then restart the modem
Log on to the wireless network that you created during the setup and you should have an Internet connection

ITunes Library on one ext. HD, used by two computers -- is it possible ?

I "dittoed" my iTunes folder to an external FW hard disk. I then changed the location of the "iTunes Music" folder in the Preferences->Advanced. This worked OK for the original user (user "A") that built the library. For other users on the same computer, it only works if I share the library of user A.
Now I thought, if I hook the FW HD to another, regularly authorized Mac, I should be able to use the very same library, at least as a shared library. Alas, no dice. The second computer has no music. If I change the location of the iTunes Music folder for any user, nothing happens. If I turn on "look for shared library" nothing happens either -- well that's expected because the library is supposed to be shared by the other computer, which is off.
So, it's there any way around? I would like to listen to the same music on the two computers, which I use for different purposes, without replicating and synchronizing the library all the time.
Thanks!

Assuming you use the iTunes default settings where iTunes copied added items to your iTunes folder and organizes your library (meaning - everything is all self contained in the iTunes folder), then all you have to do is drag & drop your iTunes folder (not just the iTunes Music folder you find inside the iTunes folder) to the external drive and copy the entire thing.
If you want to test that it worked or would like to actually start using it from that location instead, use these instructions when you start iTunes to point it to the new location...
How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304447
On your OTHER computer, same thing. Plug in the external hard drive, open using the above instructions and point to the external drive to start using it from that location.
Cheers,
Patrick

How to use iPhoto with 1 photo library and 2 user accounts on 1 iMac ?

Title says it all.
I don't want to have a double picture library, it takes enough space from my harddisk already.
My wife and I share the same camera too. We want to see the same pictures when using iPhoto.
Possible solution: Do I have to make a softlink from 1 user account to the photo lib that belongs to the other account ? [in Terminal: ln /Users/.... etc.)
(Yes, I'm an ex-Linux user)
Thnx
Fred4711

If you want to have the same data, do you need separate accounts? A surprising number of people think that must have separate ccounts and they really don't need to.
Anyway:
For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
What you mean by 'share'.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

How to use iPhoto on Mac and iOS in conjunction

I'm using iPhoto on both my Mac, iPhone and iPad. After the new Photo Stream and the new iPhoto iOS app has been released I think it is all started to get a little confusing. Here is some of my thoughts.
1) When I delete a photo from my Photo Stream the photo gets deleted on all my devices. Nice. On my Mac, iPhoto is for instance creating a "mar. 2012 Photo Stream" event, where all photos from the Photo Stream is keept -- also the deleted once. That's OK. On my Mac I can cleanup these events by deleting the unwanted photos. All my photos are synced to iPad but it seems, that I cannot cleanup these events on iPhoto on my iPad. Is that right? I'm able to "hide" the photos from the events, but that does not delete them -- and they are still visible on my Mac after their are synced.
2) I have an "Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit" making me able to import photos from my camera to my iPad, which I do daily when I'm on vacation. I thought that I could just import the photos to my iPad, put them in an event/album, edit/retouch them -- and when my iPad gets near my Mac the events/albums gets synced to my iPhoto on my Mac (without having to import them to the Mac manually). But it seems that the Camera app on my iPad is just putting the imported Photos in the "Last Import" album. How is Apple thinking we should do this? I cannot find a way to move them to an Event.
3) Generally, the difference between Albums and Events in iPhoto iOS seems unclear. After the new iPhoto for iOS was released, I was hoping that I could edit, retouch and choose the best photos from an Events and put them in an Album. I can create a Journal with these photos but that is not always what I want. For instance if I would like to make a slideshow for my TV, it would be nice to have a clean album where only the best photos from an event. How is Apple thinking this should be done?
Please tell me how you are using iPhoto on Mac and iOS. For me it does not work perfectly.

Not only do they not work perfectly, they do not work together at all. Pretty much the only thing they share is a name. They are quite independent apps. Editing history on one can not be carried over to the other, so you can't start working on shots on one device and continue on the other. Events, Albums etc have no relation with each other and so on. Perhaps the next version of iPhoto (for either OS) will move them closer together but at this time they have no relationship at all.

Can Quicktime Pro be used on two computers with one registration code?

I'm asking this on behalf of a friend who uses Windows. If you buy Quicktime Pro, can you put it on two computers? Because she might buy a new computer soon and she wants to know if she would have to buy it twice or not. Thanks
.....Sorry if this has an obvious answer or if it's been asked before, but I've searched and couldn't find anything

While the license is only good on one computer at a time you can delete the Quicktime preferences file on the first (removing the registraion on that machine) and install on a second machine. Of course, that is only if you are installing the same version of QT on the machines. The key will be good for any updates of a given version number but will not work with any subsequent whole version number release.

Using on two computers

Question about using Creative Cloud on two computers: Can I use the Photoshop app while my colleague is using the Premier Pro app on another computer?

Having the software owner working between the two allowed computers (multitasking) is fine. Activation/licensing relates to the installation of the software on the two allowed computers, not the constant usage on those two computers thereafter and really only comes into play if needing to install on a different computer or every 30 days when checking the status of one's subscription. Day in and day out usage of the software on the two computers is not enforced by the software but rather agreed upon through the EULA when installed.
Hope that helps,
-Dave

How to use iphoto library in windows 8

Hi guysI have macbook pro 15", early 2011, 10.8.4 mountain lion OS, and Im using iphoto as my default photo editor/viwer. recently I had problem with macbook pro so temporary I purchased lenovo laptop, windows 8. my question that is there any way I can access my iphoto library (as I put it in external HD) and which software I can use for this purpose.
thanks with regards, wait for your response

You may be able to view your photos from windows if you have special software that allows you to read Mac formatted disks - but you can not properly access your iPhoto library - and finding the photo you want and the correct version of it is difficult - you really can not use the iPhoto library from a PC
the iPhoto library MUST be on a volume formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) which the PC can not even use without special software - be sure that you have not put your iPhoto library on an external drive formatted for the PC or you will have problems

How to use iphoto movies in imovie?

I called apple customer care but they were unfortunately not helpful.
I have imported pictures and videos into iphoto and I would like to use the videos there under imovie.
Some videos (both taken on iPhone and a digital camera) appear in the imovie "iPhoto" section. but some just simply dont appear there.
When I called Apple Care, I was told that only Iphone movies were compatible through iphoto and imovie, but I can see videos i took on a camera in imovie under iphoto.... but only some...
On the apple website, it says that you should be able to access videos on iphoto from imovie.
I have looked up other support forums etc.. but I dont seem to find the right solution for me.
I did try to uninstall both iphoto and imovie, and re-install, but that made no change.
I imported videos into imovie separately, but I assume that takes up twice the space on the SSD. Since its only 256... i would rather avoid any extras...
If anyoneone knows a fix around this issue, please help! Thanx.
Also, is there a way to migrate the whole imovie library onto an external drive as it wil take up a lot of space?

Hello All,
I found out what happened. For some unknown reason, when I imported the movie clips into imovie they were copied within the iphoto folders. Before the import they were just in the Originals folder. After the import they were located in both the Data and Originals folder in the iphoto path. I was speaking to an Apple Care rep when we found them. At first he was sure that imovie would not copy thm and asked me why I thought that my disk space had been reduced by 8GB. I knew because I watched my free space dwindle during the two hour import and noted the space available before and after the import. He said that this was very odd and imovie should not have not have copied the files and he will report it to Apple. Thanks,

Can an iTunes library be copied and used on two computers?

Earlier this month I tried to get an answer to a problem I was having with using iTunes on two different computers. Stubaan, pqh and GregoryBurbidge tried to assist me (thanks, guys) but I did a poor job explaining my issue. I'll try again...
Several years ago, after running short of space on the internal hard drive of my 2003 iMac G4, I purchased a 250 GB iomega ext hard drive and moved the iTunes library to it. No problems, the songs played just fine.
I recently upgraded my old iMac with a 2.8 GHz Intel core 2 Duo. I added a 1TB external drive via Firewire to the new machine. I gave my old G4 and 250 GB to my daughter, but before I did that, I "clicked and dragged" the iTunes library from my old 250 GB hard drive to the new 1TB drive, hoping that all the songs we had on the original iMac/external drive could be used on the new machine/external drive. It appears that the library was copied over successfully, but iTunes in my new iMac can't locate songs when I try to play them (the dreaded ! sign). I've gone into the preferences and tried to choose the iTunes library folder on the new hard drive as the location, but "no go."
Is it even allowable to copy over the iTunes library and be able to play all the songs on both the "old" computer and the "new" one.

Chris, Roaming and Mike:
Thanks for your responses. To answer Chris' question, when I originally moved what I thought was the library from my old iMac G4 to to my first external hard drive, I did it using Preferences -- Advanced--Change Music Folder Location option. I renamed the Music Folder "iTunes Location" and "consolidated the library" onto my old external hard drive. That worked fine. It was that "Music Folder" (what I thought was the "library") that I copied over (clicked and dragged) from the old external hard drive to the new external hard drive. The problem arose when I disconnected the old external hard drive and tried to play songs on my new iMac. The songs came up as not being found.
Is it an "authorization" issue, or something else. Thanks again for your help.
