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.

How to download pictures from the web with their URLs?

How do you download pictures from the Web so that they automatically have their URL addresses in their "Comments" section of the Get Info window? I thought Safari did this automatically, but it's not happening for me.

Graham--
When you say to open the image in another window, do you mean another Safari window? When I do and right click on the image, I don't get the "Inspect Element" option. I have tried your other suggestion, and that doesn't work either.
So.... I'm still puzzled...
I am also working in the same version of Safari (4.0.4) but this may be because I have the "Develop" menu (between Bookmarks and Window). If you do not, that will not be available to you. I can tell you how to get this, but as a newer user, this may be (for now) more information than you want.
However, if you do open that image in a new window, the toolbar will display the URL of the image.
As to the other solution, I may not have explained this clearly enough. Let me suggest another route to the same idea. With an image in a web page, drag it to the desktop. When it is on the desktop, highlight the image (click once) and then use the Finder > File menu and the item, Get Info. The large panel that opens will give the URL and this works for any file downloaded from the internet, which makes it a useful security check too.
All the best.

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.

I can't copy and paste pictures from the web to my email like I could with Explorer?

With IE you can copy a picture from the web and paste in to an email, with Firefox I have not been able to do this?

In Firefox, right click over the image you want to copy and select "Copy Image".
Go to your email application and then right-click and "Paste".
This should work.
I notice that you are using an older version of Firefox, so it might be worth upgrading to the newest version Firefox 6.0.2.

I'm having trouble importing pictures from the internet....when I drag the picture to the icon, it gives me the option to import all duplicates. Even when I click "NO", it STILL imports every picture I have imported AGAIN, including the new one! WHY??

How do I import pictures from the internet? Which tutorial tells how?

I've got this great computer that I absolutely love but I still don't know how to use so many things and I can''t seem to find what I need to know in the tutorials and manuals.
I am still trying to figure out how to import pictures from web sources so that I can save them for reference or to share.
How do I do this and where can I find the printed info?
The only thing I can figure out right now is to print out the pic and then scan it back onto the desktop. I hope this is not the only way.
Thanks for your help...

itzamirakul,
In most cases, it is much simpler than you would think.
In this case, all you need to do is click on the image and drag it out of the browser window to some location... your Desktop, or a folder on your Desktop.

Import pages from the web

Here is the situation I have a 1st Gen Mac Mini and a MacBook. I created the iWeb site on my Mini. I have an older copy on my MacBook. (I do have dotmac/mobleme) Is there a way to import from the web into my MacBook so it will match what is on the web and on my Mini?

How can you import pictures from the iphoto app to your mac book pro into iphoto on a mac book pro using mavericks?

I've tried to look this up on the app, and it tells me to use the iTunes file sharing and I can see anything with this trying to use both. I'm trying to keep my pictures in chronological order. Does in know how I can use this? Any help I would greatly appreciate. Thank you!

OK. This is two separate issues. To import pictures on your iPhone into your MBP, you can use iPhoto or the Image Capture app (in the Applications folder).
To use iPhoto, connect your iPhone to your Mac with its USB cable & launch iPhoto. Your iPhone will be listed it in the "Devices" panel on the left. Choose it & you will get a window where you can import all or selected photos as either "split events" or as a single event. If you need help with this, try opening iPhoto's built-in help & selecting the "Import Photos" item. That will open the Import photos from iPhone or other mobile phone help topic. Expand the Import photos from iPhone section & study it. It should answer all your questions about this better than I can!
To use the Image Capture app, you connect the iPhone & select it just like above. The app has several options for importing images, but what you may find useful if you do not want to import directly into iPhoto is that you can just drag any of the iPhone's displayed items onto the desktop or into a folder like you would any other file & they will be copied to that location.
As for organization of items in iPhoto, there are four ways they can be grouped for display (by event, by photo, by face, & by place). All except by faces offers a "By date" sort choice in the iPhoto View > Sort Photos menu item.

LR 5.2 hangs when importing pictures from the SD reader (Macbook)

Hi, I'm experiencing problems when importing pictures in Lightroom. The context is
- Lightroom 5.2
- Nikon D600 (always RAW files)
- SDHC SanDisk Extreme Pro 32GB (UHS-I, 95MB/s)
- Macbook pro 15" early 2011 (high def matte screen) running Mac OS 10.7
I have a recurrent problem when importing pictures in Lightroom using the built-in SD reader. LR starts the process ok but a few seconds later it seems to stop. If I click on a picture I get "preview not available". Even when (after a long long time) the importing finishes, the pictures are corrupted and I have to start it again.
The only solution I've found so far: try once and again (ejecting the card doesn't work, so I get several messages: 'disk not unmounted cleanly' or something similar) until it works smoothly. Usually 3 or 4 re-tries are needed. It goes worse with the number of pictures: the more pictures I have in my SD card, the more likely it will hang repeatedly. Very disappointing...
Any help would be welcome. Thanks!
Cheers, German

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. Be sure to not delete the photos after importing into the library.
If you are able to import into the new library try repairing your current library as follows: make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

I cannot save (to desktop) or send (to another computer), a certain important document from the web. Can I have a back and forth discussion with someone about my issues?

Technically, I'm just trying to print my online pay stub, and am having an impossible time with the options given to me!!
Since my printer isn't working, I'd like to save document to my desktop ("save as" is the only option given to me) and send it as an attachment to a friend's computer and working printer. I'm given 2 options for the format when trying to "save as", neither work, because when I open the saved icon on my desk top, sometimes there is an empty page that states something like, there is no webpage here, or there is nothing there at all!
Now, I am currently trying to send the document directly (via email, an option given under "file") the pay stub from my employer (who uses ADP online payroll services), to that computer and working printer ....and I'm receiving a window (with apple mail logo on it) that begins with "To view this page, you must log in to this area on agateway.adp.com:443:" and asks for "name" and "password". I've put in both ADP's information, and what I believe (could be very wrong) to be apple mail's information, and either/neither/nothing seems to work!
[back story] About 5 years ago, I attempted to set-up apple mail (4.5) on my MacBook (OS X 10.6.8), didn't appreciate the process and abandoned my efforts. Since then I've always used different email applications (yahoo, go daddy, and currently, gmail). I've been successfully able to avoid apple mail up until this point.
Can anyone help me save or send this document?
Please someone ....help me!

What browser are you using?
Are you trying to print or to save the doc? Whether you have a working printer or not is really immaterial. If you're trying to print, then File > Print > PDF > Save as PDF…. If the resulting PDF is small enough (<5MB, though my preference is <1MB), e-mail it to your pal. If it's too big, transfer it using a chat programme or a file service (MediaFire, RapidShare, etc).

I don't understand any of this. You need to explain better—or perhaps just post a screen shot (blank any private or confidential info on it prior to posting).

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 am fairly new to MacBook. I want to copy a picture from a web site to Word and i can't select it using the usual command. What am I doing wrong? With windows it was very simple

Why can't a copy a picture from the web in MS word using the available commands?

Saving pictures off the web? help!

Hi,
I just got this new mac book pro so I'm very inexperienced with all the photo options.
I'm trying to save some pictures off of websites, like Facebook in particular, to add to my photo library. However, when I click on a particular picture it will only save it as a web archive and not as a .jpg. I know why it's doing that, but I don't know how to change the extension or highlight the picture and save JUST the picture, not the entire web page. I used to have a windows computer, and I could right click and save as a .jpg. I was wondering if there is any option to save pictures from the web with a mac as a .jpg?'
Thanks!

Yes, you can right click (Ctrl + Click). OR, you can drag the photo to the iPhoto icon in the dock and it will import it (if you want it in iPhoto; it will make a jpg under username > photos > iPhoto library > year > month > day).

Importing pictures from camera roll while maintaining folders

Hello, I am wondering if there is a way to import pictures from the I have on my iPhone (that are in folders) and put them on my pc while keeing them in those folders?
Example:
After having some 2000+ pictures on my iphone, when IOS 5 came out i started putting them in folders...
I have Folder 1, Folder 2, and Folder 3, etc on my iPhone.
Is there a way that I can import those folders with their contents onto my pc without importing all the pictures seperately, sorting them, and remaking all the folders?
Thanks in advance for your help!

You can use the app PhotoSync to wirelessly transfer the pictures to your computer while maintaining your folder structure.

I try to import pictures from aperture in to a new themed project in iMovie (the one with voyages) and it won't let me

I try to import pictures from aperture in to a new themed project in iMovie (the one with voyages) and it won't let me. Any ideea?

A wag at this. A port issue?
"Apple Push Notification network setup
When MDM servers and iOS devices are behind a firewall, some network configuration may need to take place in order for the MDM service to function properly. To send notifications from an MDM server to Apple Push Notification service, TCP port 2195 needs to be open. To reach the feedback service, TCP port 2196 will need to be open as well. For devices connecting to the push service over Wi-Fi, TCP port 5223 should
be open."

Try it on your home network where there isn't a lot of 'controls' -- network filtering , firewalls, etc.
