Image file location, deletion without iPhoto

I moved my iPhoto library to an external hard drive for space.  After verifying that the external libraray was ok, i deleted the mac hd iphoto library.  However, I failed to delete all the images first.  However, I realized that after I deleted the library, the photos were all still on Mac HD.  How do i find those image files and delete them, without iPhoto?

Which is it, Managed or Referenced?
Also what version of iPhoto and system are you running?

  • How to send image file through mail without   any attachment

    Plz tell  me how to send image file through mail without any attachment  ( i mean not converting  that image into pdf or any format )  i want to send that text or image  through mail .

    Hi Sandeep,
    I think you can setup the type of email in Shared office Settings in transaction S016.
    There is an option called <Preset document classes>
    You choose this pushbutton to branch to the maintenance screen for the document classes that are directly displayed to users in the Business Workplace for selection when they use the Create function. The name under which the documents are displayed can also be maintained.

  • MacBook Air, can I partition my Mac external drive to have an ISO image file location for Windows downloads?

    Hi, in preparation for installing bootcamp and windows 7, and in the absence of a DVD drive on my MacBook Air, can I partition my Mac external drive to have an ISO image file location for Windows downloads?

  • Image File Location

    I haven't used iPhoto much in the past except for the Calender feature; I order once a year. I just got a new machine and do not want the actual image files stored on the boot drive, but instead on an external. How do I set this up?
    Thanks

    How do I get thumbs to show up?
    Content needs to be added to the library before it will display anything.
    If I go Import doesn't that actually copy them to my internal HDD?
    Not if you've created the library on the external drive. Every component of the library is stored in the location where you created it unless you set iPhoto not to copy items to the library when imported from the Advanced section of its preferences, in which case they're stored where they were placed prior to being imported.

  • Where are the image files located?

    hey guys, my book is 75 mb and I can only guess that it's because my images are Too big. I don't know how to get the file sizes down because I replaced them but they must still be retained in the image folder because when I look at the size its 75mb. Does anyone know where the images are located?

    Finding out where the images are held doesn't really help – here's why:
    iBA a files aren't really document files – they're more like zipped folders. iBA does a whole heap of background stuff to make the book work. When you drag an or import an image into iBA, it gets filed into a certain place within that folder structure, and presumably 'logs' that location in some xml-type wizardry somewhere else in that folder structure.
    Because of this, it's not a great idea to muck around with any of that stuff - it often makes things worse, not better.
    As for image size - as Vinny said - all you can do is make the images 2048 x 1536 if you want view them full screen. That looks best on a Retina display, as almost all iPads being sold now are.
    I don't know what your intentions are with the project, but in my experience, 75Mb pretty small. Is 75Mb the iBA file or an exported .ibooks file? Once a book gets exported to .ibooks format, the file size comes down. The iBA files I have worked on are much larger – the smallest being about 975Mb, going up to about 3.25Gb.

  • Where is the user image file located?

    So, I know this has been discussed before, but I can't find a sollution that works in Mountain Lion.
    I'd like to be able to locate the image file which I'm using for my user account icon. It also appears in iMessage and Contacts, but I can't drag it to the the desktop. Because I don't know the file name, I can't search for it.
    Does anyone know where it is stored? Or how I can extract it?

    Hi,
    Previously in iChat the "Recent Pics" were stored and shown in the Drop down in the Buddy list.
    The place was ~/Library/Images
    In Mountain Lion it appears that the Drop Down shows "Recent Pics" but is pulling them from several sources.
    The Messages Drop down
    The Recent Picture Folder has these:-
    Some Match and some don't.
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook holds the Zebra and copies of my Sig and thre Union Flag.
    At present I cannot find the ones the System Preferences > User and Groups > your account has as Pic are stored.
    Some of the pics are the Apple Default ones.  (Hardrive Name/Library/User Pictures)
    You can also take a Snap Shot on Macs with cameras  and I guess it is this that you are after ?

  • HELP! How come I can see images I've deleted in iPhoto library folder on iMovie?

    I've deleted these images off my iPhoto library as well a emptied my trash. Although when i go onto iMovie the images are there supposably in the iPhoto library folder but are unable to be located but are able to be viewed. How do I erase this? Do I have to erase the cached iPhoto library and if so how?
    Thanks!

    MIDI loops (green) are not sounds, so there is no waveform, they are merely instructions for a synth. audio loops (blue) will show the waveform.
    and I can't get them so they will be sound waves.
    if you option drag a MIDI loop from the browser into the timeline, it's pre-rendered audio sample will be used instead and you will see a sound wave.

  • If I delete photos from "all images" will they delete in iPhoto ?

    I am looking for a way to delete unwanted photos from the HD.
    I have duplicates and superfluous photos all over the HD in various locations so I would like to delete them from whatever master location will clear them from the HD.

    Never make any changes of any sort to the structure or content of the iPhoto library - doing so will corrupt the iPhoto library and you will lose data
    This specifically included deleting photos from the all images display
    If you want to delete photos in the iPhoto library do it in iPhoto ONLY

  • How can I transfer images from digital camera without iPhoto?

    The thing is that I wish to see my camera's card as an external storage device, as it happens when I connect it to my PC, so I can manually choose which to transfer and where.
    But when I plug my camera it automatically opens iPhoto. At first,, this was fun, because I didn't even have to load any device drivers. But if you're using pro-camera equipment and manage and photoshop many images, like I do, an application like iPhoto isn't the way to do it.
    Any feedback?
    Thanks

    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Hi Panos,
    I started using Image Capture to download all my images and Movie clips. I actually like doing it this way a lot better. My movie clips are downloaded into my Movies folder where I then put them in a dated folder.
    My photos are downloaded into my Pictures folder, where I then put them in a dated folder. I import the dated folder into iPhoto. I also keep all dated folders from photo downloads in the Pictures folder till I get enough Movie folders and Photo folders to fill a DVD. I burn them and then delete them from the hard drive.
    This way I have the photos in iPhoto and I also have just the photos backed up to DVD.
    The Movies I keep on the hard drive in their dated folders until I use all the clips for my iMovie projects for the Year. I then make sure they are all burned to DVD, then I delete those from my hard drive.
    Using Image Capture to download images and video clips:
    Open up Image Capture which is found in the Applications folder.
    When it is opened, go to Image Capture/Preferences
    Under the General button choose
    Camera: When a camera is connected, open Image Capture.
    The next time you connect your camera Image Capture will open.
    In the window that opens you will see an Options button. Click on that button to set your options.
    To find out more about Image Capture (it can do a lot more) Click on Help in the menu bar when Image Capture is open.
    iPhoto: How to Change the "Open Automatically" Preference
    If you find you can't change any of Image Captures preferences or can't access any drop down menus or they are greyed out, check to make sure Image Capture is loose in the Applications folder and not within a sub folder.

  • Irritating Tool Tip on image file location

    My complied web help (RoboHelp Word) shows an irritating tool
    tip on the location and file name of the images when the mouse is
    placed over the images. How do I disable this?

    Hi jothi21 and welcome to our community
    Personally, I try like heck to avoid mixing Word and
    RoboHelp, but it does appear here that you actually LIKE this
    combination.
    If this were RoboHelp HTML. I'd tell you to double-click the
    offending image and look in the
    Screen tip field. I'm hopeful here that Word might offer the
    same thing if you double click your image there. If not, try right
    clicking the image and see what options you have. The goal is to
    see if RoboHelp will offer some option to insert the same thing in
    the RoboHelp for Word version.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Trouble downloading some images from CF card to iPhoto

    My iMac was full - no space left on it. I did not know this until I tried to download a 16GB card that was almost full of RAW images from my 50D.
    There were approximately 600 images on the card. Around 450 of them downloaded fine to iPhoto. Then I got an error message saying that my hard disk was full, and that I would not be able to download the remaining 150 images until I created room on my computer.
    So, I went thru my image files and deleted about 200 photos, figuring that would create plenty of room for the remaining 150 that I still had on the card (the images I deleted were the same file size as the ones I was trying to download, so it should have freed up enough space).
    When I tried to download the remaining 150 images, only about 5 or 10 downloaded successfully, then I got the same error message saying that my hard disk was full.
    So, I again deleted more images, then tried to download the remaining images. This time, my computer wouldn't accept any of the images. I didn't even get the error message - iPhoto simply froze up when I tried to download the images remaining on the card.
    I later deleted a few thousand images - to ensure that there would be plenty of room on my computer for new images. I then downloaded another card with about 600 images on it (from the same 50D). I had no problem downloading all 600+ of the images on this card. However, when I went and put the other card back in the card reader and tried to download those remaining 140 images, iPhoto simply froze up again and I couldn't download any of them.
    WHen I put the CF card in my 50D, I can view those 140 images on my LCD screen without any problems. In fact, all of the info is intact for each of the images. But when I try to download to iPhoto, iPhoto freezes up and won't accept them.
    I do not use any other photo program, so importing them into something like Lightroom or Aperture is not an option. I am also not interested in paying money to upgrade to a newer version of iPhoto, so I want to keep this within the iPhoto 08 that I currently use.
    What I want to know is, does anyone know how I can get these images downloaded into iPhoto? Is there some type of software recovery program that is free, that will work directly with iPhoto?
    Any help that anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.
    +PS: I will be away from my computer for most of the weekend, so if I don't respond to anyone's post promptly, my apologies. I'll review all posts and respond to them when I again have internet access in a couple days.+

    Thank you, Terrance.
    I have cleared a ton of space on my hard drive. This is evidenced by the fact that I have recently uploaded about 2,000 photos onto my iPhoto app. Each photo is from a Canon 50D, and is a RAW file, so each image is right around the 20mb sie. These are huge files, and yet I've been able to download a couple thousand recently. Yet I still cannot download the 140+- images from that Compact Flash memory card that gave me trouble previously. It seems to me like somehow iPhoto and that particular card are having trouble "talking to" each other ever since I tried to "force" iPhoto to accept more than it could hold at that time.
    Also, you mention using an external hard drive. I shoot only in RAW. When I import a photo into iPhoto, and edit it in iPhoto, iPhoto remembers what the original photo was like before I edited it. So, I can always go back to an image and simply ask iPhoto to revert the image to the original RAW file, and it does so.
    My fear with using an external hard drive is that when I export an image from iPhoto to the external, that the external drive won't "remember" what the photo looked like before I edited it. Can I save the actual RAW file to the external, or do I need to export the photos as jPegs? If I can only export a jPeg, then I will lose much of the extremely detailed information that the original RAW image file contains.

  • IWeb without iPhoto

    I'm new to iWeb and want to use iWeb 2009 to create a family web page with photos, video clips, blog, etc. I'm a little confused as to how iWeb & iPhoto work together. I have a mac.com acct. (now mobileme) and want to use that to serve my web page. After publishing my the web page, to my mobileme accout, I want to delete the photos and videos from iPhoto on my MacPro laptop to free up hard drive space. 1). Can I delete the photos from iPhoto without losing them on my published iWeb web page if I published the site to my mobileme acct.?
    2). If not, is there a way to do so?
    3). I can't find an iWeb manual online (just Apple's video tutorials and a pdf file for old version of iWeb using soon to be obsolete mac.com. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    The photos added to iWeb photo pages, even those that are setup to let the viewer download full sized versions, are not the quality of the original file. What with how inexpensive external hard drives are they are a much better solution of backing up your original image files or running your iPhoto library k(and iTunes if desired) from there to free up the boot drive.

  • Lightroom workflow - HD setup and file locations

    Has anyone waxed poetic about catalog and image file locations or workflow? How do you go about conceptualizing a drive and file storage strategy for a Lightroom workflow? Of course this will vary depending on the equipment you have, but I'd appreciate and links to stories that run through various configuration setups and the possible workflows and locations for catalog, master files and backup locations. Here's my setup:
    - Mac Pro (3GHz 8 Core) with two 750GB internal drives (one for OS X) the other for Apps and content storage); two empty drive bays for now.
    - PowerBook G4 1.2GHz w/160GB internal drive that I use on location, or as an in-lab Flash card reader if the Addonics external, Firewire card reader attached to the Mac Pro fails to see a camera card (as it sometimes does). This second in-lab scenario adds some complexity to the workflow, although the machines are linked with Cat 6, gigabit Ethernet.
    - OWC Mercury Elite Pro with two 750GB drives configured as a mirrored, software RAID on Firewire 800 for backups.
    Should I set up the Lightroom catalog on the internal "content" drive and store all the actual image files there, reserving the RAID drive strictly for backups? This would mean that the RAID would only be used a redundant backup system (which is fine and what I originally planned) since it's probably slower than the single, internal drive. The problem is this: remembering to back up the files from the main content drive to the software RAID drive.
    Or should I be using the slower, mirrored RAID for main content (master image file and catalog) storage.

    John, Andrew and others:
    Thanks for your thoughts. Do you also use Lightroom to manage all "working" versions of Photoshop files (multiple version - edits - of files in progress)?
    During my first couple of projects, I ended up creating a "Working" folder for each project outside the Nikon folder-oriented hierarchy of the original image files. I did this only out of habit rather than workflow planning, but ended up with a second workflow outside of Lightroom.
    Does anyone think it's better to simply save these files (with or without the "working" folders) into the same folder hierarchy with all the Nikon originals? I'm just trying to figure out how to organize the workflow for the in-progress files.
    Again, before Lightroom, I managed these files in separate folders on the hard drive, and usually moved them to a new location for final storage. Clearly, that won't work for Lightroom, but what does? I'm getting into a bit of trouble trying to manage file (and working folder) locations as I try to transition to a new, database-driven workflow.
