HT1229 How do I transfer photos in iPhoto in one computer to another computer?

I want to move photos from iPhoto on my old computer to my new computer.  How do I do it?  I'm thinking I can do it via flikr and then download the photos.  But, that doesn't make a lot of sense.  Any help?  Thanks

That totally depends on what you are trying to do
To move some photos you could use Flickr or email or many other ways
to move your iPhoto library and keep it the same Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
What is it you want to do?

    How do I transfer photos in iPhoto from my Mac Book to my iMac?

    Depends on exactly what you want to transfer:
    The Original files: Export from iPhoto on the MacBook (File -> Export, set the kind to Original) and copy the files to the iMac. Then import to the Library on the iMac
    The Edited files: Export from iPhoto on the MacBook (File -> Export, set the kind to Jpeg or tiff, note the options for adding metadata to the export) and copy the files to the iMac. Then import to the Library on the iMac
    Both and all the Metadata: Link the two Macs together and use  iPhoto Library Manager

    Again for Aperture questions it is best to ask in the Aperature forum. This has nothing to do with iPhoto. It only involves Aperature

    Hi
    iPhoto is a software application used to import, organize, edit, print, and share digital photos on a Mac OS.
    Elements Organizer 10 supports importing photos from iPhoto '09 (versions 8.0 – 8.1.2) and iPhoto’11 (versions 9.0 – 9.1.3). You cannot import photos from versions previous to iPhoto '09.
    Import photos from iPhoto ‘09
    Elements Organizer 10 supports importing photos, along with their associated captions, tags, and ratings, from iPhoto. You also have the option to import information such as events and albums to maintain the organization of your library
    Select Files > Get Photos And Videos > From iPhoto.
    Note:  The iPhoto option is not displayed if iPhoto is not installed on your computer. 
    The Import From iPhoto dialog 
    (Optional) You can convert events in iPhoto to individual albums in Elements Organizer 10. In the Import From iPhoto dialog, select Convert Events From iPhoto Into Albums.
    When you import an album and event with the same name, a single album is created and all associated photos are added to the album.
    (Optional) Select More options if you want to choose the events and albums for import. Select the events and albums you want to import.
    Click Import.
    Import photos from iPhoto ‘11
              Select File > Get Photos And Videos > From iPhoto. Click Import.
    I also a got an article for a quik reference.

    Do you want to transfer the entire library?  If so just connect the two Macs together and copy the iPhoto Library from Mac A to Mac B and put it in your Pictures folder.  Be sure to rename it if you already have a library in the destination folder so as not to overwrite.
    Under no circumstances should you import a library into another library.

    How do I transfer photos or videos from my Droid to my computer?

    Hello, I had the same question; however, I've got the "black screen o' death" on my Droid Razr (cannot access anything on the phone/no touchscreen...but I DO get incoming calls through my bluetooth device). My new phone is scheduled to arrive this afternoon but I'd like to try and retrieve my photos/videos to save them if possible.
    I've got the phone connected to the Mac via supplied USB cable but all I see is the MotoCast on the desktop and cannot set the phone to mount as a drive...any workarounds?
    Thanks in advance.
