I can't import images from the web into my iphoto 8

I installed snow leopard a few weeks ago and when I try to click on an image on a website like a friends photo from myspace, and drag it to my Iphoto's icon in my dock it gets rejected, But I was able to do that very same thing before and it would work. I don't know why it won't now unless it is snow leopard. can someone help me fix this problem? Thanks to anyone who can help.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Several people have mentioned this and it seems to be a change with 10.6
If you're using Safari then right click on an image and choose 'Add Image to iPhoto Library'. Otherwise drag the image to the desktop first.

  • I can`t copy image from the web sites to Microsoft Word, since I update firefox ! Why ? How I can fix it ???

    I am tryin to copy image form ZABBIX to Word document. Everything was fine before update and now I am having a problem

    More generally, when you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    (You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these:
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Cannot copy and paste images from the web into Corel Draw

    Attempting to copy and paste a jpg image from a client's website, for use in Corel Draw... Copy appears to work fine, and pasting into other programs like Windows Paint works, but paste to CorelDraw has no result.
    I've seen where others would get the text URL but nothing happens when I hit paste.
    Drag and drop imports the text name of the image.

    Since Firefox 13, when you copy an image, Firefox places both the image data (bitmap data) and the URL of the image on the clipboard. I can see why you would get one or the other, but I can't think of why you would get nothing.
    Did this just start in Firefox 22?
    Some odd interactions have been noted between Firefox 22 and ZoneAlarm: when ''copying'' selected text in Firefox, the clipboard may end up blank a significant percentage of the time . But it sounds as though you have a different issue.
    Do you have the same issue in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?

  • How can I import images from iphoto with the albums and folders?

    How can I import images from iphoto without losing the albums and folders I already created?

    In Organizer, you can choose File>get Photos and Videos>From iPhoto.
    Importing from iPhoto'09: If in iPhoto, you organize your media using photo references, that is, the media actually does not reside inside iPhoto library package, and are referenced through original locations, Organizer does not create new copies of those media and just refer to the original location. but if your iPhoto media reside inside iPhoto library, Organizer creates a copy all media in your pictures folder, also imports albums and tags and other metadata.
    Importing from iPhoto'011: In this case, Organizer always creates a copy of your photos in your pictures folder which resides inside iPohto package. It does not import the albums and other metadata like star rating, caption etc.
    Hope this information helps!

  • Import picture from the web

    how can i import images from google images to make it a clip with that images

    In most cases you should be able to drag images from a website direclty to your Desktop.
    From there, add them to iPhoto or drag them directly into iMovie.
    But (and this could be a big but) many of the images, if not most, that you encounter on web sites are copyrighted and their may be restrictions on how you can legal use them.

  • Illustrator CC (Mavericks) crashes when pasting images from the web.

    I have read many forums of illustrator crashing, and most of them is about the Wacom tablet. I do have a tablet, so I uninstalled the software, but tried pasting an image from the web, and sure enough it crashed again.
    Hope you can help me, because this is very frustrating
    Thanks in advance,
    Alexandra

    Umm, well, have you considered that this is the most rubbish workflow one can imagine? Seriously. Save the images locally from your browser and them import them using the place command and even that only after checking them in Photoshop. There could be any number of issues here like files being damaged or having crooked color profiles attached that make AI go kaboom... Again, it's simply a very, very bad workflow.

  • Getting images from the web

    When I copy an image from the web and paste it in AI the URL is inserted and not the image.  How do I change that?

    I understand the rights issue and I am complying to any rights issue.  The issue that I am having is at home I can copy and paste an image in to AI from the web but at work I cannot do the same thing.  It is an extra step that I am not use to.  I know it is some sort of setting I just cannot find. 
    For example, if you look up "tigers" on Google, take the first image of tiger and paste it in AI are you able to do it?
    When I do this I get the below text instead of the image:
    http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/17/Tiger_in_Ranthambhore.jpg
    Any help will be greatly appreciated, I use a ton of images from my factories that I need to use for my job.

  • Why can't I drag and drop images from the browser into other programs?

    Ever since I upgraded to Firefox 4 (even after I upgraded again to Firefox 5) I have been unable to drag images from the browser into other programs, including MS Paint and IcoFx. I receive an error message stating that the file (the address given lists it as being located in the temporary files folder) cannot be found.
    Prior to this I had always been able to conveniently drag and drop images for easy editing without having to save first and then open them. This feature is important to me, as I work with graphics very often, and is still available in Chrome and Internet Explorer. I love Firefox though, and hope that there is something I can do to fix the problem.

    I had this problem on Windows 8.1.1 and iTunes 11.2.2.3
    To resolve it from within Itunes I did :  Edit, Preferences, Sharing.
    I took the tick out of "Share my library on my local network"
    Click OK.
    Closed iTunes/
    Reopened iTunes and I can drag and drop.
    I went back into Edit, Preferences, Sharing and put the tick back and clicked OK.
    Works fine now.

  • I am trying to import cr2files from the camera into lightroom 5 and keep getting an error message saying Lightroom can not read the files and therefore will not import them.  Has anyone had a similar problem-.thanks

    I am trying to import cr2files from the camera into lightroom 5 and keep getting an error message saying Lightroom can not read the files and therefore will not import them.  Has anyone had a similar problem….thanks

    If you are having the same problem, i.e. a disk permission problem, open your favorite search engine and search on, "change disk permissions", and I think you'll find plenty of information on how to fix the problem. This is a Lightroom forum. Your problem is with your operating system. There is no sense in rewriting instructions that are already available if you do a simple search.

  • Load picture control with png image from the web

    Hi guys,
    Is there an example anywhere for Labview 8.6 for loading a picture control with png image from the web?

    Hi lavalava,
    here you find a note on how to load pictures from the internet. After grabbing the data you could save them to a file, load the file with the picture file functions and then convert it into the image datatype to feed a picture indicator with the data...

  • Import skins from the web

    I am having trouble importing skins from the web for the RoboHelp 10 application.  I have downloaded the skin from the Adobe's website and changed the file name (ie, xp_gov.zkn), but the application is not allowing me to import the skin.  I'm receiving an error "Please insert Disk Volume 1854 of 8225.".  Is there a way to go around that?  I don't know how else to import a skin.
    Thank you!

    Try this:
    Download the file to your PC. It downloads as a .zip file.
    Extract the .zip file.
    Expand your project's Skins folder.
    Right click and select Import Skin.
    Point to the extracted .skn file.
    Make any required skin changes.
    Click OK.
    If required, rename the skin.
    Click OK.
