I do not see the jpg files in Finder?

I need to be able to see the pictures as files in Finder. I only see the IPHOTO Library. But when I click on it, it does not display the individual files as it used to. Without this feature, I can not upload them to Shutterfly. Can someone help me with this?

The iPhoto Library Folder is now a Unix style package file.
There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
For Shutterfly and many other photosites check out PictureSync.
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser. Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.

  • When I add an artwork to a song on iTunes, it is only on iTunes, I mean, When I see the song file on Finder, it does not have the artwork. What Can I do?

    If I open the file on Windows or in a SmartPhone, it does not have the artwork. How can I "paste" the artwork to the song file?

  • Still see the RAW files in Finder?

    Hi, I'm new to Mac and Lightroom, and there is one thing I'm trying to understand. I imported some images. I converted the RAW files to DNG files. Everything is ok in LR. But I just looked in Finder under ALL DOCUMENTS,  and see those RAW files sitting there, they are not in LR nor my PIctures folder only ALL DOCUMENTS. What did I do wrong? I don't want to keep the original RAW files.
    THANKS FOR THE HELP.

    The other times I have imported RAW and converted to DNG on import, the RAW files were never saved, like it should be.
    Well, this depends if you Added or Moved the raw files in question. If they were converted directly from the SD card or camera, they will not be copied to the target directory you specify. But if you are just making a DNG reference to files already on the filesystem, Lr will rightly not delete them.
    I think the "convert to DNG" gesture you can do to existing imported raw imges has an option to trash the originals. Not sure about that, though.

  • Aperture does not import Nikon JPG files when RAW and JPG

    I own a Nikon D2x that I download files to a Sony 40GB portable HD. When I shoot in RAW + JPG only the RAW file is imported when I connect the Sony HD to my Mac and import to Aperture.
    If I open the Sony disk Icon on the Desktop, I can see both the RAW and the JPG. In fact I can finder copy both files to the Desktop with no problem.
    Even when I connect the camera itself, the jpg files are not imported.
    This makes me think I should just shoot in RAW and save the space on the memory card.
    Why does Aperture not import the JPG files?

    it does import them ... but only displays the RAW file ... if you drill down into the library package you will see them ...
    here are threads dealiing with same issue ...

  • Elements 11 not seeing/downloading RAW files.  HELP!!!

    Hello,
    Just got Elements 11 and when I put the card into my pc the download box pops up and it reads the card, but it does not see the raw files, only the jpg files. If I use windows explorer to view the card it sees the raw files fine. I can open raw files from the card into elements 11 editor fine. It just will not see the raw file in the downloader box. I had Elements 7 before 11 and it worked fine.
    I have windows 7 and Elements 11 is updated to the latest version.
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks,
    David

    Thanks for the reply.
    Thats right, not seeing any raw thumbnails. If I just have raw files on the card and put it into the PC's card reader or a USB exturnal card reader all it says is"This divice does not have any supported media". It will show the jpg and tif files. It's a really weird problem. Elements 7 worked fine. All my cameras are old, D700, D3, D300s, D1x so it's not a problem being a new camera thats not supported yet.
    I'll try the organizer way and see if it works or I may just use the Nikon transfer software.

  • DW 4 not seeing GoLive .site file!

    I have several sites created in GoLive 7. I downloaded the GoLive 9 free trial, brought them over into GL9. Then I did the "Convert Site to New Structure" command as I have seen suggested. Downloaded the GoLive to DW migration extension and installed it. So far so good.
    But when I go to Import GoLive Site, and navigate to the folder where the site file is (there are actually several, only one is the current one), Dreamweaver does not "see" the .site files, even though when I look in the window in explorer, they are there. All I see are the web-content, web-data, and web-settings folders, but no .site files at all.

    This is an issue that I have never come across before. You're
    using a
    non-standard filename extension, so it doesn't particularly
    surprise me
    that Dreamweaver ignored it. Have you tried entering
    .properties in the
    list of filename extensions, as I suggested? If that works,
    your problem
    is solved. All that's needed is for the documentation to be
    made more
    explicit.
    On the other hand, if your filename extension is likely to be
    in
    widespread use, perhaps it's something that should be added
    to the
    standard list of files that Dreamweaver handles. Submit a
    feature
    request to the Dreamweaver team.

  • I can not see my JPGs when i run my JSP

    Hello,
    I have a JSP which is called by servlet by RequestDispatcher. However
    when this JSP is run in browser I can not see the jpgs i put inside
    as banner or logo. (By the way, i can see them in JSP viewer, I mean inside tool) Those are all static images. Is there a procedure I should do in servlet or JSP to make them appear?
    Thank you very much..

    the only reason you don't see them is because the browser can't find them (in that case they'll appear as red crosses). Remember that the ultimate output is HTML and that should be correct.

  • I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4) and attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file.  I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and need assistance

    I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4).  The installation to my hard drive went fine so I attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file.  I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and am uncertain as to how to "add" the Elemnts to my existing filter choices.  Please advise.

    I'm sorry but it's very hard to understand what you mean. What filter menu? In which program? Do you mean you're trying to use PSE as an external editor with some other asset management program? Which one?

  • I just purchased Time Capsule today.  I ONLY want to use it as an external drive.  I do not need it for Time Machine. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please

    I just purchased Time Capsule today.  I ONLY want to use it as an external drive.  I do not need it for Time Machine. I need to free up room on my computer. As of now, I can't even load updates. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please!

    I agree with Kappy.. passing files and especially via wireless is slow as slow.
    Just need to be sure your TC is the new AC model??
    And the OS on the computer is Lion?
    Have you completed the setup of the TC via the utility? You do still need to get internet via the TC so it has to be plugged into the main router..
    Give us the full picture of the network.
    Then we can help you get into it.. whether you should put your files on it is another question.

  • I'm attempting to transfer files, address book, etc from an external hard drive to my new Mac-mini using migration assistant.  The external drive is showing up on my desktop but Migration Assistant is not seeing the drive when searching for devices

    I'm attempting to migrate files, address book, maile, etc to my new Mac Mini using an external hard drive and Migration assistant.  I followed the instructions on using Migration Assistant to do this but Migration Assistant is not seeing the external drive, which is displayed on my desktop

    I've been chasing this problem all afternoon. I had to reformat my internal drive on my MBP and reinstall Mountain Lion   Start up assistant wouldn't see my extrnal drive with the Time Machine files on it.  After many tries, I skipped the restore there and let the system boot.  I could see my external drive from Finder and the files looked OK.  I was told to use Migration Assistant and it had the same problem.
    I saw a hint on one of these posts that the icon that you see and is label Macintosh HD is actually your backup disk and it is telling you that it has a copy of your internal Macintosh HD.  I went ahead and told it to continue and it started to restore my apps, settings, and documents.  It's been going for a couple of hours, and is close to being done.  I expect to see my old system restored when it is finished.
    Wish that Apple would put some type of note that it is seeing the backup. That is most confusing and seems to be a problem for lots of users.
    It's been a month or so since your post  Did your get it to work?

    I can tell you that this is some of the absolutely worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I found out from a store employee that when they are really busy with calls, they have third party companies taking overflow calls. One of those companies is Xerox. What can a Xerox call center rep possibly be able to authorize on a Verizon account?  I'm Sure there is a ton of misinformation out there due to this. They don't note the accounts properly or so everyone can see them. I have been transferred before and have asked if they work for Verizon or a third party also and was refused an answer so, apparently they aren't required to disclose that information. I spent a long time in the store on my last visit and it's not just customers that get the runaround. It happens to the store employees as well and it's beyond frustrating.

    When I have video clips on my timeline, they do not play in the monitor screen. I hear the sound track but can not see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but do not see any video. Have I changed some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

    Thanks for the follow up.
    Missing in this equation were the version of Premiere Elements that you were using and the computer operating system on which it was running. But...
    The deed is done. But.....Until now and after you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what version of Premiere Elements you were using. We still do not know the computer operating system involved.
    You just said Premiere Elements 10. Premiere Elements 10 is hit by a serious known display issue if the computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. In this issue, the only remedy is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. The description of the problem and how to do the roll back are described in one of the Announcements at the top of this forum. What video card/graphics card does your computer use?
    On another front, Adobe will be releasing a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. That type of information is announced at the moment of release of the new version.
    So the remedy to the problem that you presented in this thread could have been...
    1. Rolling back the NVIDIA GeForce driver version to about May 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, may not be possible)
    2. Move to another version of Premiere Elements (which you did)
    I offer the above for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that Premiere Elements 12/12.1 works for you.
    Please do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarifications, but remember that the answers are in the details.
    Best wishes,

  • How do I create a photo in jpg or other photo format from a frame within iMovie11.  The suggestion I have found from earlier versions of iMovie does not create a jpg file that can be revealed in Finder. Help please.

    How do I create a photo in jpg or other photo format from a frame in iMovie. The previous suggestions on here do not create a jpg file when you chose reveal in finder when using iMovie11 and OS X

    First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (google MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5)
    Open MPEG Streamclip.
    In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
    Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
    In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
    In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
    Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
    You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.
    Here is a video I made that steps through this...
    I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.
