HT201302 Is it better to save photos using windows photo gallery or windows live photo gallery?

Is it better to save photos from iphone 4s to laptop ..windows 7... using windows photo gallery or windows live photo gallery? ive used both and it appears to be adding all photos each time i do it despite which one i use. My laptop is filling up with the same photos 2,3,4,5 times.... Depending what was on my phone at the time.... the older photos have been repeated more often. I thought when importing to laptop only new photos would be added... how do I change this?
Also now I have so many duplicates i dont know which ones to delete as some have been saved as jpg... , imgJPG...., vcm_s_kf.... and vcm_s_kf_repr.... Why? and which ones do I delete?
I have deleted some photos and pictures which look like computers, printers , docket printers etc Since then my Media Gallery does not work. Have I accidently deleted a driver or something? or is Media Gallery just overloaded?

As long as you've backed up your photos, what you use is really a matter of personal preference. To avoid duplicates, pick one program. Getting rid of duplicates that you already have is probably going to mean going through the photos one by one.
For problems with Windows Software, you're probably better off posting on a Windows forum.
Best of luck.

Lighter print out of photos using Photoshop Elements 10 and Windows 7?

When I print directly from Elements 10, my photos come out much darker than when I print directly from my computer on Windows 7??
Is there a MAIN adjustment (not each photo) in the program which lightens all print-outs? My printer is fine. It copies photos properly and prints out from Windows (My Pictures) properly.

Donna,
While you read up on color management (!!!), you may want to check the following:
Reduce the brightness of your computer screen. The default setting may be sub-optimal.
In Elements, go to Edit>color settings, and tick the option to optimize for computer screens
In Elements, open a picture, then go to File>print. Look for "More options", go to the color management tab, and under color handling drop-down, select "printer manages colors"
Suggest that you print from Editor, not from Organizer.

EPrint prints photo using my main tray and not the photo tray

Hello,
Thanks for reviewing my question. I just bought the HP Photosmart C410 printer and setup the ePrint. When I print a photo from my iPhone it prints on the photo on the 8.5 x 11 paper instead of the photo tray. What gives?
Many Thanks
Peter

Hey PDonstant,
1. You can go into the setup menu on the printer and go into preferences. In preferences you can go to Device Printer Tray Select and choose prompt for tray. This will give you the option to print to photo paper or Legal size.
2. You can try downloading the HP ePrint Home & Biz app and printing from there. You have the option to select the paper size and type from the app.
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.
If I have resolved your issue, feel free to provide Kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided.

How can I use my backup external hard drive to sync into Lightroom and still work on the same photos I was working on and get rid of the ?. The photos are on a folder so I need to someone sync the folder into Lightroom. Please help!

When I right click on an image, then went to Go to Folder in Library, it pulls up the new external hard drive where I made the new link. When I try to work on the photos, the image still says file image is offline or missing. When I right click on the image to Show in Finder, it says the image could not be used because the original file could not be found. I eventually did click on their locate and found the image.

That was weird!
Hope this helps someone else in my predicament.

Sending photos using Photoshop Elements 12 and Windows 8?

I did everything according to the instructions, defined e-mail address, got the code and confirmation of the adress, but still when I try to send meile in the end there is symbol that the computer is trying to perform this task, but the minutes passes by, and nothing changes. I have spend a lot of time trying to fix it - with no success. I use Windows 8 and Microsoft OutLook. I have no problems sending other thing. I also have Mozzilla Thunderbird om my computer, but it is synchronised to OutLook (can use both of them, whichever I want).
I bought Photoshop Elements 12 to send and edit photos. I'm close to that to give up this product, despite the fact that the rest of his functions as a judge very successful. It's great that there is a possibility to get a refund of the purchase of this product for 30 days from the purchase over the internet.
Please, help me.

Do I need an iOS or Android device to both create and view Live Photos?
Yes. Currently Live Photos may only be created and viewed on iOS or Android devices at this time.
Can I use any video in Live Photo?
You may use any video recorded on your mobile device using the video function, up to 45 seconds in length. If the video is longer than 45s, the HP Live Photo app will allow you to select a 45 second or less segment from the video.
Where are the Live Photo videos saved when I create a Live Photo?
The videos for your Live Photos are saved over the internet to the cloud. The original video on your device is not affected or modified in any way. HP Live Photo is not a video backup solution, so be sure to save images and videos using your own storage solutions. The live photo videos are not saved to your Facebook account.
When I share a Live Photo via email or Facebook is the video included in the email or post?
No. Only the Live Photo is included in the email or Facebook post. The video is only accessed from the cloud when the HP Live Photo app is used to scan a Live Photo.
If I print a Live Photo to give to family/friends, how will the recipient know how to view it?
The HP Live Photo app allows you to choose between printing just the Live Photo itself, or printing the Live Photo and a set of simple instructions for your recipient on 4x6 or 5x7 photo paper. The instructions explain how to install the HP Live Photo app and view the Live Photo.
Can I share my Live Photos with anyone?
Yes. You can share with any friends/family using a live photo nametag. Even easier, if you log into Facebook from the Live Photo app your Facebook friends are automatically enabled to view any live photos you share with them without having to enter your Live Photo nametag.
What is a Live Photo Nametag?
A Live Photo nametag allows you to share live photos with friends and family who are not a Facebook friend. The Live Photo app will prompt you to create your own custom nametag. This nametag allows Live Photo users who are not your Facebook friends to view your live photos.
Your nametag is printed on the bottom right corner of all your live photos. When you share your live photo with someone who is not a Facebook friend, they can simply enter your nametag in the nametag field on the View screen of the Live Photo app, and then view any of your live photos you share with them. This is a one-time operation - once your friend or family member enters your live photo nametag they will be able to view any of your live photos. Anyone who is a Facebook friends can view your live photos w/out having to enter your nametag.
How do I print a Live Photo from an iOS device?
You can print Live Photos from the Live Photo app on your iOS device in the same way you print other photos on iOS, using the built-in iOS Airprint feature. Airprint supports a range of printers from HP and other companies. If you need help with Airprint, follow the steps in “How do I send a print job using Apple AirPrint?” section in these instructions.
How do I print a Live Photo from an Android device?
Printing from Android devices is supported via the HP ePrint app, and is currently only enabled for HP printers. (See the next section for printing to non-HP printers or printers not supported by the HP ePrint app.) The ePrint app must be installed separately from the Live Photo app, and supports all web-connected HP printers released in the past several years and many legacy HP printers. If the HP ePrint app is not installed on your Android device you will be prompted to install it when you select the Print option in the Live Photo app. For more information see the HP ePrint app in the Google Play store.
Note on HP ePrint app Activation: After the HP ePrint app completes installing you will be prompted by the HP ePrint app to Activate it. You do not have to complete the “Activation” step in the HP ePrint app to print to your local wi-fi connected HP printers. HP ePrint app Activation is only required if you wish to print to HP web-connected printers on your HP Connected or HP ePrintCenter account, over an internet connection.
Once the HP ePrint app is installed, when you select Print from the Live Photo app the HP ePrint app will be automatically launched w/the live photo displayed and ready to print. All you have to do is select an HP printer on your wi-fi network, ensure you have photo paper inserted, and hit print.
Can I print from my Android device to non-HP printers and HP printers that the ePrint app does not support?
Yes. There are some third-party printing apps available for Android devices in the Google Play store (one example is Printershare). If your HP printer is not supported by the HP ePrint app, or if your HP printer compatible is not compatible with the HP ePrint app, you may be able to use a third-party print app to print your HP live photos.
Send the photo to yourself via the Share via email option from Live Photo. Then open the email on your phone and tap on the photo when it displays after downloading. Select the Android Menu option and choose Share. Your print app should appear on the Share list. Select the print app and complete your print as you normally do using that app.
Can I print Live Photos from my computer?
Yes. Simply share your photo via email from the Live Photo app to your own email address and then open the email and print the live photo as you normally do from your computer. You can print live photos from your computer to any printer you have attached to it that supports photo printing.
Can I print Live Photos on plain paper?
Always print Live Photos on photo paper to provide the necessary color, saturation, and depth for the best Live Photo experience. You may have success printing on plain paper, but results will be much less predictable.
Do I need a Facebook account to use HP Live Photo?
Viewing: No. A Facebook account is not required to view live photos using the Live Photo app.
Creating: No. A Facebook account is not required to create Live Photos. You can create and share them using your Live Photo Nametag. However: If you create live photos without logging into Facebook, we cannot make your live photos available to you in the Live Photo app on other devices. Any live photos you create on a device using just a Live Photo nametag will be added to your Live Photo gallery and available on other devices if you sign into the app using Facebook.
Do I need an internet connection to use this app?
Yes, HP Live photo requires an internet connection for launch/use.
I played the introduction video in the app but why is there no sound – what’s wrong?
Make sure that you have sound enabled on your iOS device...if you are set to virbrate mode you will not hear audio with the video.
How can I provide feedback on Live Photo features that I’d like added or changed?
In the HP Live Photo app, select Settings and scroll down to the Send Feedback option. We would love to hear from you! Note that this option is for feedback and is not monitored for support questions. For support questions see the

TROUBLESHOOTING
Create:
Can I change the images that the app pulled from the video for the Live Photo?
It is not possible to directly select a specific frame of the video to print as the Live Photo. You can try the refresh button in the upper-right corner of the “Choose Image” screen to re-scan your video.
What can I do if the HP Live Photo app is unable to find an image in my video for the Live Photo?
The most likely reason for not finding an appropriate image to print for the Live Photo is that the content of the video does not provide enough contrast. For example, a video of a white dog walking on the sidewalk, or black dog walking on asphalt. The best way to try to resolve this issue is to shoot the video with more lighting to increase the contrast. You can also try to include a few “still shots” in the video where camera and subject movement is minimized.
What if I don’t want to share the entire video?
After you select your video, you can use standard iOS video trim functions within the HP Live Photo app to choose your desired begin and end points.
What if my video is longer than 45 seconds?
The HP Live Photo app will display the video trim controls automatically with a 45 second segment selected so you can choose what portion of the video to include.
Can I use a video from another source?
HP Live Photo currently only supports videos created on your iOS device.
It’s taking a very long time to save my Live Photo project. What can I do to speed it up?
Saving the project requires uploading both the video clip and the photo, and completing several tasks in the cloud to link the Live Photo to the video. Depending on the length of your video and the speed of your internet upload connection (which can vary significantly over time), this can take several minutes.
If you are on Wi-Fi and the save is taking more than five minutes or not completing, try changing to 3G or 4G, which usually have faster upload speeds than home or public Wi-Fi connections. (Data charges may apply.) You can also try using a shorter video clip.   (If you are interested, you can use services like www.speedtest.net to test your Wi-Fi and 3G/4G upload speeds.)
How do I view or share Live Photos I’ve already created?
Select the Live Photos option (icon looks like a small stack of photos) in the Live Photo app to view the Live Photos you have created. Select one of them to view the photo and choose a print or share option.
How do I delete a Live Photo from my list of saved Live Photos?
iOS: Go to the Live Photo tab and slide your finger left-to-right on the Live Photo you want to delete. A “Delete” button will appear – select it to delete the photo.
Android: Select the Live Photo icon (at the top of the Live Photo app, looks like a stack of photos) to view your live photos. Long press on a live photo a context menu will appear with Delete and Share options. Select the Delete option.
Share
I’m having problems printing a Live Photo that was shared to me.
See the Printing Live Photos section above for general information and assistance with printing HP Live Photos.
Can I use the app to view a Live Photo on my computer screen?
Yes. If you share the Live Photo via email or Facebook, recipients can use the HP Live Photo app to view the Live Photo on screen and see the video. Results can be affected by the monitor display resolution and type, as well as ambient lighting.
My friend doesn’t have an iOS or Android device. Can I share my Live Photo with her?
At this time an iOS or Android device is required to view the videos associated with your Live Photos.
I just need the viewing instruction sheet – how can I print that?
Go into app Settings and scroll down and select the “Print Instructions” option. If you prefer not to print the instructions on 4x6 or 5x7 media, remove photo media from the photo tray before you send the print.
View:
I have a Live Photo that does not play when I view it through the HP Live Photo app. What’s wrong?
Below are some reasons why this could occur:
The photo is not an HP Live Photo. Look for the small blue icon of a bird in the lower-right corner of the photo to confirm it is a Live Photo.
The person who created the Live Photo must be either one of your Facebook friends, or you must connect to them by entering their nametag (printed on the bottom-right of the live photo) in the View screen in the Live Photo app.
The Live Photo needs to be printed on photo paper for best results.
Ensure sufficient light is available for viewing, and minimize any glare or shadows on the photo.
The creator of the Live Photo may have deleted the Live Photo project from their app. Contact them to confirm it is still available.
An internet connection that is too slow/unstable.
Can I view Live Photos with other augmented reality apps?
No. HP Live Photo requires the HP Live Photo app to view the images and display the video.

When I zoom in on photo using iPhoto, how can I save the zoomed in photo please? I would like a screen shot of my zoomed in photo - is this possible?. Cropping doesn't give the same effect as zooming in and magnifying the photo. Any help would be appreciated thank you. I have an iMac

To take a screenshot of the zoomed photo, press either the key combination
⇧⌘3 for a screenshot of the full screen, or

I have lightroom 5.7. Now I have apple TV to connect my Mac to the TV scree. I wish to do a slide show on the TV. However, on the Mac, using ITunes to share photos with the TV, I cannot locate all photo files. What is the best way to save the slide show and put it where the Mac sharing can find it? So far, I made on one folder in Lightroom, put some photos there and I found them easily. Can this be done with a slide show? Please help quickly! Also worried that the photos I put on the new folder are hard to find afterwards, when the show is done. Where do they go when I delete from from the new folder?I am not alone

Not that I'm aware of. You just export JPEG copies to a folder that you can point iTunes to. For instance, I have created a folder in my Pictures folder called Apple TV. And within that folder I have other folders of pictures that I can choose from in iTunes to share with Apple TV. But there doesn't seem to be any way to share a Lightroom slideshow. If you have laid to create a video file that would probably work. Apple TV is a little clunky in my opinion. Some things are a little more difficult to do now than they were a while back. I probably haven't provided you with much help, but just keep experimenting and I think you will figure it out.

How Do I Create a Screen Saver That Uses Shared Photos??

I have a pretty simple request here, or at least I think it should be pretty simple. My family uses a shared photo stream so that we can all see what everybody is up to without sending a bunch of individual messages.
I'm going to use a screen saver that displays photos but the tricky part is...I'd like the family's shared stream to be the source for all the photos.
Previously, I went into iPhoto and just selected all of the photos from the stream, dragged them into a desktop folder, and set this as the source for the screen saver. The only problem with this method is that whenever a new photo is added, it won't show up in the screen saver (obviously). That's why I'd like to set the shared photos as the source.
Is there a simple way to do this and set the shared photos as the screen saver source?? I would even settle for doing the alternate method that I described in the last paragraph, but I can't even figure out how to do this with the new "Photos" app...
PLEASE HELP!! Thanks in advance...
Pete

Pete, setting the screensaver is a matter of patience, the menus are very slow, if you just set up the system and the spotlight index has still to be recreated.
But you should be able to it this way:
Open the Desktop&Screensaver System preferences, select the Screensaver tab.
In the left pane select a screensaver template for slideshows.
In the right pane select the Source menu.
Now wait and have a cup of coffee, while "Loading is showing"
Then select the last item "Photo Library".
Wait again, until your current photo libraries are shown.
Select the Photos library,
Select the Shared section and your shared family stream.

I have an older version of imovie. After I change the photos using the Ken Burns effect and save them, the next time I open the file and click 'show photo settings' to change the zoom, the picture appears black and I can't change the zoom?

I have a five year old version of imovie that generally works fine. However, when I add a photo using the 'Ken Burns' effect then save the movie, the next time I open the file and click 'show photo settings' the picture appears black and I cannot change the zoom. Any suggestions?

Have you rendered both iOS 7 and iOS 8 (both of which will work on your iPhone 5) out of the question entirely without trying every possible configuration? The animations can be disabled entirely, if that's the problem. And if the whiter-brighter user interface is the problem, there's reverse-contrast modes that darken everything. You can expose accessibility controls to gain immediate access to these functions to toggle them on and off. I guess my point is you may have decided against upgrading the OS based on an early experience with iOS 7 when Apple has since made changes in later revisions to address some of the usability complaints.
Now, Apple's instructions for downloading older versions of apps is to do so from the Purchased list, not from the app's product page.
See here:
Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X - Apple Support
Let us know how that works for you.

Now I can't send a photo because i get an error message saying the user name and password do not match.
How do i save a new gmail user name and password??

iPhoto Menu ->
Preferences ->
Accounts ->
Delete and recreate your email settings.
Alternatively, use Apple's Mail for the job. It has Templates too - and more of them.

Hello there, Jeanne2919.
There is a great Knowledge Base article that is right up your alley:
iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
Specifically this section:
To delete synced photos and videos
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply.
To delete Camera Roll photos and videos
There are two methods to delete items from the Camera Roll:
Import the Camera Roll to your computer, choosing to delete items after import.
or
Delete photos and videos from your device manually. Open the Photos application, open the Camera Roll, tap the Action button, tap each photo to select it, and tap the Delete button.
Note: For photos and videos you want to save for later, import them to your computer before deleting them from the Camera Roll.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,

HT201302 Pictures taken with iPhone 5 cannot rotate once saved in Windows Live Photo Gallery please help

Having a problem after taking a picture. When I email it and cc myself the picture needs rotated. I use Windows Live Picture Gallery and it will not let me rotate them either.Can anyone help.

As long as you've backed up your photos, what you use is really a matter of personal preference. To avoid duplicates, pick one program. Getting rid of duplicates that you already have is probably going to mean going through the photos one by one.
For problems with Windows Software, you're probably better off posting on a Windows forum.
Best of luck.

HT201302 Is it better to save photos using windows photo gallery or windows live photo gallery?
