Import multiple pictures

I would like to make a simple slideshow with about 40 images. How do I import these images in a batch (instead of one at a time?) I'm sure this is pretty simple but I can't find it in Keynote.
Thank you
Siamack

Drag the images all at once onto the slide navigator
(the right side bar that shows your slide thumbnails)
instead of onto a single slide. Keynote will make new
slides, one for each image.
This works great. Except portraits get chopped off. I'm preparing a 1024x768 slide show of about 500 photos. I've organized them and renumbered them in iView MediaPro, but would like to use Keynote as the presenter software.
I dragged in the photos (typically 2560x1920), mostly landscape, but some are cropped to odd sizes and others are portrait. Keynote does fine with the normal landscape photos, but all the others get cropped to fill the frame. How can this be prevented? With this many photos resizing them in Keynote is too tedious unless there is some setting or AppleScript to deal with this.
Thanks for any suggestions.

  • Problem importing new pictures

    I am having trouble importing new pictures on my photoshop elements 10. I have done several projects with multiple pictures per project and thought my memory was full. I cleared all the pictures from my file as well as my backup file and it still will not let me import anything new. Please help! I have more pictures I need to edit and really need this fixed ASAP! And I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program and it did not fix it.

    Are you talking about Elements Organizer?
    You can create a new catalog and then import pictures in there. To make a new catalog, go to File >> Manage Catalogs >> New.

  • Help with importing multiple folders

    Hi,
    I've just bought a new computer which has come with PE9 pre-installed. It looks like it could be a great program but ...
    Two big problems. Firstly, I tried importing all my pictures from "My Pictures". All my pictures are neatly arranged into their various folders so I clicked on "My Pictures" and it imported all 2000+ photos straight away which was great. However, the big problem is that it has copied every picture individually i.e. it hasn't imported the 20 odd individual folders I had those files arranged in. So firstly, and most importantly, how do I import multiple folders at the same time or can't I? Do I need to remove everything and just copy each individual folder across one by one? Because that sounds like an awful lot of work! I'm assuming it should import multiple folders at the same time but, as usual, there's nothing I can find on the forums or the FAQs to answer the question.
    Your help and advice would be gratefully received.
    Many thanks.

      Elements will simply mirror your hard drive making links to each image.
    When using File >> Get Photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders
    You can navigate to your system folders and then check the box to include all sub folders.
     

  • Importing old pictures with wrong date stamp. After adjusting date they are landing in the correct folder of referenced masters.

    I was thrilled to learn that with Aperture I could have one big library and using referenced masters, I can organize the pictures by date so I know where everything is and can backup to the cloud.  I started importing really old photos that were taken with god knows what camera and the date is wrong.  Since I had all these in date structured folders I could make a best guess on the date - not needing it to be exact, just so it shows up close enough in projects and the original lands in the right folder for future use & backup. I have come to learn that changing the metadata is only referring to how Aperture sees it.  In other words, images that were taken on 10/31/04 are still landing in the referenced masters folder on the date the camera said.  I now understand that the metadata date is not the date Aperture needs fixed.  Is the best way to fix this to delete the images from Aperture, find some tool that will adjust to the approximate real date, then reimport.  If so, can someone recommend a utility that does this? If I can fix this inside of Aperture, even better.  I saw on one of the discussions: "it's all about the Exif and IPTC and not about the file metatata."  Please feel free to learn me on that.  Cheers.

    That answers some of it - the relocate files.  That will allow me to put the files in the right year/month folder.  I imported full folders into Aperture so need to edit the metadata date for multiple pictures at the same time.  I understand when you select multiple pictures and then ajust time, it adjusts in relation to the first picture.  In my case these things were taken by all sorts of crappy cameras & re-edited years later (2003 data).  So pictures taken on the same day have 2001, 2003 & 2007 dates. I really do just wnt to set all of them to the same (ballpark) date. 
    So my goals are:
    1) have the pictures land in the right referenced folder - answered
    2) do a mass adjust time to the same date for a folder of images
    3) have the projects then land chronologically inside Aperture - not sure about this one yet
    Thanks for your help, it's very much appreciated.

  • Import multiple folders in one step

    I'm new to PSE and have just installed version 10: is there a way to import multiple folders from my hard disk into Organizer in one step? Selecting each folder and then selecting all the pictures in it is tedious (I have about 50 folders to import into PSE).

    Hi,
    You can import photos from multiple folders.
    Just click File >> Get Photos and Videos >> From Files and Folders
    Now select the folders you want to import photos from (they should be at same level in the directory, say all folders in My Pictures) using Ctrl+Click, tick the checkbox for 'Get Photos from subfolders' if not already checked and then click 'Get Media'.
    Hope that will help
    Thanks

  • How can I choose multiple pictures, on the iPad, to attach in an email using Mail?

    I can easily choose and attach one picture from Photos to an email in Mail. I cannot seem to figure out how to choose multiple pictures, then attach all of them at once. I even tried using a separate folder to attach but that did not work either. Thanks in advance.

    From the Photos app tap Edit.
    Tap to select up to 5 photos. More and the Mail option is not possible.
    Tap Share.
    Tap Mail.

  • Is there a way to delete multiple pictures at the same time from the iphone4s?

    Is there a way to deleter multiple pictures at the same time, from my iphone4s? I know how to delete one at a time. Thanks

    Open your Photos App > Camera Roll > At the top right corner you will see a rectangle with a right arrow, select that. Now you can select as many photos as you want and you can hit the red Delete button on the bottom right.

  • Importing multiple jpeg files from local folder into database LOB column

    I have to programatically save multiple pictures (jpeg) from the folder on my PC into Oracle table LOB column. I have to be able to choose local folder on my PC where are the pictures, and press button on Oracle Forms to save pictures in LOB column in database.
    I'm using Forms 6i and Oracle 10g Rel2 database.
    Is this possible with Oracle Forms or the only way to do that is to use create directory database command and use dbms_lob package which I shouldn't do, because Oracle database directory is not allowed to see my local folder.

    As I said I don't know how to use object data type, I just given a shot as below. I know the following code has errors can you please correct it for me.

  • Questions about using Lightroom to import my pictures..

    Hi.
    My main use for Lightroom is picture import, as it does a superb job on arranging my pictures at import time, but I have a few questions that maybe you guys can answer.
    First and foremost, my camera has that orientation data, but somehow the image file that ends up on my hard drive is always vertical (i.e. 3264x2448) even though there are pictures that are shot horizontal (i.e. 2448x3264). Is Lightroom capable of importing the pictures already rotated, or is there a setting that allows that? (Note that the pictures INSIDE Lightroom are shown rotated, but I'm talking about the JPG file stored in my hard drive)
    Second, how can I set up Windows Vista to display Lightroom as an option to import pictures when I insert my card or connect my camera?
    Thanks..

    Let me see if I understand your rotation issue. It seems that you shoot jpeg (using which camera?) and that the images show correctly rotated in Lightroom but not in another (unspecified) application.
    Does the software that came with the camera show the jpeg properly rotated? (I'm certain that it does.) What software doesn't show proper rotation? Windows Explorer? You would not want Lightroom to physically rotate the image on disk since that would violate it's non-destructive editing rule.
    Lightroom has a preference setting that allows the import dialog to be shown when a memory card is detected. Avoid importing directly from the camera and use a card reader.

  • Print multiple pictures on one page..so frustrating please help

    Just trying to print multiple pictures on a single piece of paper. The drop down menu that says "print multiple pictures on page" is grayed out and wont let me select it. I have read thread after thread , watched tutorial after tutorial and nothing addresses this simple command. What am I missing. Thank you in advance for your help

    Select the pictures and type Command+P to bring up the Print window. Then click on the Contact Sheet option at the left. You can change the number of photos per page and their size by clicking on the Customize button and the changing the number of columns on the page. The size of each photo will automatically be scaled to fit.
    If you want a specific size, then instead of selecting Contact Sheet select a print size. The size you select will determine how many photos of that size you'll get on the paper size selected.

  • How do I sync multiple picture folders to my iPod ?

    How do I sync multiple picture folders to my iPod touch ? I don't want to create another folder and then copy the desired folders to be synced, into this main folder. All of my pictures are about the size of 5-10 MB. Copying them would mean loss of additional space.

    You can only point iTunes at one folder for syncing to the iPod. You can however selectively choose which subfolders of the main folder are included. I use a Photos folder inside iTunes\iTunes Media and move the folders that I want on my device into that, but the parent folder could be anywhere that suits you.

    how can I get rid of multiple pictures at the same time?

    Adobe Bridge, lightroom and your file browser (windows explorer or Mac Finder) can select multiple pictures at once and then delete. If you are looking for more than that for information, you will need to be more specific at what your doing, what OS you have, and version of software your using. If necessary post screen shots so we can see what your doing. The more information we have the more detailed of an explaination can can give back to you.
