HT201302 How to save a messenger photo

How can I save a photo from an instant message?

What's there for Apple to fix? You have a local glitch
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.  
Printing is the same as in every other app on your Mac - command-p
There's whole button the window that deals with sharing. It's helpfully marked 'Share'.
I gave you a link above that has information on how to access your Photos - here it is again:
For help accessing your photos in iPhoto see this user tip:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4491
and here's one specifically on Exporting:
This User Tip

has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

    How To Save Screen Shot Photo From iPAD to JPEG FORMAT

    The "iPad format" is PNG (which is better quality than JPEG).
    There is no way to choose JPEG at the moment of taking the screen shot. You will need to convert the file using conversion software, probably on your computer. Google "convert PNG to JPEG".

    Use File >> Save As
    Choose a different file name so as not to overwrite the original and don't save any changes when closing the original.

  • HT201302 How do I backup my photos on my iphone after I updated my software?

    How do I backup my photos on my iphone after I updated my software? It is asking me to restore my iphone but I need to back it up first.

    After? If you're being asked to restore you phone, and you didn't previously back it up, it's too late now. You can't back it up once it's in recovery mode.

  • HT201302 how to recover importing personal photo on ipad

    how to recover importing personal photos on ipad

    What do you mean 'recover importing personal photos on iPad' ? The HT4083 page that you posted from tells you how to copy photos/videos in the Photos app that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera kit, and/or saved from email/websites to a computer e.g. you can use the windows camera wizard on a PC, and Image Capture, iPhoto or Aperture on a Mac.
    If you want to copy back photos that were originally synced from a computer then you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them back via your wifi network (but as photo are 'optimised' when they are synced to an iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer).
    If you've deleted photos from your iPad and want to get them back then were they on your iPad when you last backed up ? If they were then you can try restoring your iPad to that backup

  • Iphoto 11 , How to save changes to photos, not saving -/ snow leopard

    Hi , after much ado then discovering the recent "fix" for Iphoto 11 I started using it today. I uploaded new photos , edited them and quickly discovered that Iphoto was NOT saving any of the changes I had made.There  is no longer a  "Done" button so I went back to again check the few  photos I had adjusted , Iphoto only saved changes for one out of 10 of  the photos I had adjusted.
    Is there a "save changes"  function I am missing here? Anyone else experiencing this problem?

    How are you exporting? If you select the photo and export (file menu ==> export) with kind = JPEG or current the edited version will be exported
    if that is not happening try renewing your preference file -
    A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
    This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

  • HT201302 How do I delete a photo from my camera roll and not delete it from a folder

    When I delete photos from my camera roll, it also deletes them from the folder I've saved them in. How do I delete from the camera roll and not lose them from the folder?

    "When I delete photos from my camera roll, it also deletes them from the folder I've saved them in. "
    Correct.  There is only one photo and it is in the camera roll.  The folders you create are just a way to organize the pics.  it does not create a duplicate pic.
    Just as a song is in your library and a playlist, a pic is in the camera roll and the folder.
    If you delete a song from the library, then it is gone.  The same is true of pics.

  • HT201302 How can I remove the photos after they've been imported to my phone?

    I thought I was importing my pictures from my old iphone to my new one and I ended up importing all the pictures that were saved on my computer.  How can I delete the pictures I don't want? 

    Sync your phone to your computer and then deselect sync all photos to your phone and that will delete them.

  • HT201302 how can i recover sync photos back to my pc

    How can I sync photos back to my pc - they were originally synced to the iphone and now are lost on my pc

    You don't. The photos sync is one way: Computer to Phone. To extract these photos from your phone requires third-party software, like this:

    Be aware, photos synced to your phone were reduced in resolution for display on your phone. There is no way to recover their full resolution.

  • HT201302 How can I transfer my photos from my 3 rd gen iPod to my ipad3

    How can I transfer photos from my iPod (3rd gen) to my ipad3

    All photos transferred from your computer to your iPod via the iTunes sync/transfer process should remain on your computer.
    Photos on your computer are transferred to your iPad in the same way - via the iTunes sync/transfer process. This is selected under the Photos tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.

  • HT201302 How do I transfer my photos from my iPhone to my Windows 8 HP computer?

    I've been trying to figure out how to get my photos that are taken from my iPhone onto my computer. Unforturnately, I have Windows 8 so none of the tutorials on the website help. Has anyone got any advice or have done it themselves?

    Easiest way on a Windows based computer is to email the photos on the phone to an email address that you can access on your computer.
