Incorrectly imported photos - how to move?

I have all my photos organized at the file system level, and have Aperture catalogue reference these photos (not stored into the library).
The structure is:
My Picture (project)
--- Folder 1 (folder)
------>Album 1 (album)
--------->photos
------>Album 2
Recently I imported new set of photos under a new project at the root level (same level as My Pictures), by mistake.
I have already done all my editing of this new set of photos.
I would like to move these new photos in the same structure as illustated above (such as Album 3 and photos in there).
Tried moving but Aperture does not allow. How can I correct it?

Aha. I have figured out the problem. When I drag a version that is part of a stack to an album, the entire stack comes with it. What I want is only to drag the version. Once in the album, I can't delete the other versions in the stack and just keep the one I want. I can only keep or remove the whole stack.
So I guess my question would now be how to move one and only one of several versions of the same master to an album without having all the others come along with it.
Thanks for pointing out the Remove from Album command. I had not seen that before.

Importing photos into i movie (ilife '06)

I am working on my first movie in ilife '06, and am having trouble importing photos from iphoto into the movie. Unaltered clips import fine; but when I use the Ken Burns effect the computer applies the effect, moves it into the clip viewer, then as soon as the photo renders, it disappears with a "puff" from the clip. Has anyone else encountered this? Any tips?
Thanks.

Fred, that's a symptom caused by several of the factors described in this thread:

When importing photos on I-Movie why do I get a green screen on some pictures

Waiting 6 weeks for a reply is just RUBBISH.

New Library, re-imported photos: How to salvage album data etc?

Hi,
I had that problem that seems quite widespread, with iPhoto that wouldn't load anymore (the endlessly rotating loading symbol and, ages later, the "unexpectedly quit" message).
I really wanted to see my new photos, so I moved the iPhoto Library to the desktop and created a new library. My new photos loaded fine from my camera, and I was up and running again.
Since, I have tried reimporting photos from my old library (to do this I clicked and dragged the folders for 2005 and 2006 onto the library in iPhoto under "Source".)
The good news is that it seems that all my photos have loaded without any problem. I did get a message that a number of files (all of them "thumbs") were unreadable, but when I checked them in the new Library folder, they seem to be there...)
Now the problem I face is that, of course, I have lost all my filing information, i.e. albums and photobooks. I have not created any new ones since.
Any chance I can just copy them in ? If so, can you tell me which file(s) I should copy from the old library to the new one ? I don't dare copy them all in case I get back to where I started, i.e. iPhoto won't load...
This is what is in my new Library:
AlbumData.xml
Dir.data
iPhoto.db
iPhoto.ipspot
iPhotoLock.data
Library.iPhoto
Thumb32.data
Thumb64.data
ThumbJPG.data
My old Library has the same list, but also has iPhoto Cache in it, with a lot of folders inside. My new Library has iPhoto Cache alongside it rather than inside it, and it is empty.
Thanks for your patience!

Thanks Lori,
Actually, I found the answer in one of your other posts - I downloaded and used iPhoto Library Manager and rebuilt the original corrupt library. I lost my photobooks but I got all my albums back. And I have now created backups so that I'll be safe in the future!

BlackBox Instead of Picture when Importing Photos from Nikon D5100

We had been able to import photos (and HD movies) into iPhoto '11 in versions before 9.4.3 (720.91) from a Nikon D5100 camera SDHC 16GB memory card with no problem. In the current version however (apparently after the latest update to iPhoto '11) after importing the contents of the SDHC memory card with Nikon D5100 photos and movies, some of the photos (in raw file format) appear as black boxes in iPhoto after the import.
So Note the following:
iPhoto ' 11 Direct Import - does not work
Direct import from Nikon D5100 SDHC (Lexar) memory card results in some photos appearing as opaqe black boxes in iPhoto '11
Nikon, Inc. Nikon Transfer app - works to get files into folder in Mac OS X
using the exact same memory card on the exact same computer (MacBook Pro) to import those same photos and movies using the "Nikon Transfer" application - ALL of the photos import into the MacBook Pro in the same raw file format.
Indirect Method of getting Photos into iPhoto '11 (never had to do this before but this works)
after getting the photos into a folder in the MacBook Pro file system using the "Nikon Transfer" application from Nikon, Inc. - iPhoto '11 is able to import those raw NEF files from the folder in the MacBook Pro file system into iPhoto '11 with no problem and those same black box pictures (observed with direct iPhoto '11 transfer) now look fine after doing an "indirect transfer" as described above ( memory card --> Nikon, Inc. "Nikon Transfer" application --> folder with raw NEF photos in MacOSX --> iPhoto '11
Has something changed in the latest version of iPhoto '11 to prevent import of Nikon D5100 photos in raw-NEF file format?
thanks

Still don't know about the hot pink color issue but I did find I needed to download the Nikon Transfer2, not the first version. Newer Nikon DSLR's require the second version and the disk is included with the camera purchase. Select the option to have Nikon Transfer2 open when attaching your camera or data card to computer, then go directly to iphoto to import... don't bother importing to the View NX2 unless you plan to use it as an edit tool, etc.
So, I believe it's not iphoto's issue.... maybe it's Nikon wishing you to use their program but if you really must use iphoto, you just need to go a little out of your way. ugh.

I figured out how to snap a still photo of a movie clip, but where then does it go, and how can I import it into my iPhoto library?

I was working in iMovie and discovered how to take a still photo of a movie clip. Now I can't find that still photo! Where did it go, and how can I import it to my iPhoto library?

Just found out and it is simple. When you find a frame in your video/movie of which you want a still photo or screen shot, just go to the frame and click on command, shift and the #3 in quick succession. You will hear a "click" like a camera taking a photo. The screen shot will then go to your desktop where you can drag it to iPhoto or an e-mail, or anywhere you like. Also you can rename the screen shot by double clicking on the wording under the screen shot on your desk top. Whew!

In photos how do I move new iphone import into an album

I finally saw my iphone icon when plugged into iMac in new photos app-I had to unplug and replug for it to show up; Now I see the import and can select certain ones and choice to keep or delete button in NEW IMPORT; what I can't find is how to move selected photos from new import into specific album. I tried to highlight and copy, but when go to album there is no PASTE choice.I don't want all pics to go to same album, but selected ones to go to different albums (Yosemite 10.10.3 and Photos 1.0 and iphone6 vs 8.1.3)

Select the photo and then click on the + sign. That should give you album choices.

When I connect my IPAd 2 to my desktop pc via usb cable desktop opens import photo screen. I am trying to copy/move downloaded files from my PC to Ipad 2. How do I correct this issue? Tx.

When I connect my Ipad 2 to my desktop (via USB) import photos screen open on desktop. I am trying to coppy/move files from desktop to Ipad 2. Import photos come up with import error and I cannot do anything else. How do you correct this issue? Tx. New user.

Actually, you can get photos onto an ipad from a PC. Connect them via USB (or wireless sync if you have that set up), go to the photos tab in iTunes, I don't have iTunes in front of me but there will be an option to sync photos from a folder on the PC to the iPad. You can choose an existing folder or make a new folder specifically for this purpose. Put the photos in said folder and then sync.
The photos from that folder will be transferred to your iPad

I have videos saved on my memory stick and I-photo however i want to import them into I-movie how do i convert them?

I have videos saved on my memory stick and I-photo however i want to import them into I-movie how do i convert them?

Hi,
If you have the newest version of iPhoto and iMovie, you can access your iPhoto videos in iMovie directly.
On your iMovie, after creating a new project, on the bottom left hand corner, expand your Hard Drive (Macintosh HD), and then click on "iPhoto Videos."
You can use those clicps by dragging them right into your project on the upper left hand corner and use them.
However, if the videos you took on your camera are not supported by iPhoto, then you'll need some third-party software to help you convert them.

Without proper system info and other technical details nobody can tell you much. This could be something to do with the sync features, so as a start turn that stuff off.

How do I move imported photos into an existing album in photos

I have a large collection of photos in iPhoto, arranged into events and albums.
If I now import from my camera i open up photos, not iPhoto.
After importing images how do I add specific images to one, or more, of my existing albums.
If I close photos and open iPhoto I can still import to iPhoto but the images do not appear in photos.

Enable the Sidebar if it isn't showing (View menu > Show Sidebar), then drag the photos into the album icon on the sidebar.

When importing photos into LR, the year is incorrect. How to fix?

When I first created my Lightroom catalog, each new folder would fall under 2012, and within that folder would be the date, so for New Year's Eve "2012-12-31". Now that it is 2013, when I import photos into my 2013 folder, Lightroom instantly tries to create a subfolder of 2012 and another subfolder in that with today's date. I can't seem to get Lightroom to stop doing this. See the image below to see what I mean.
I'd like it to just put today's importing images into a subfolder under the 2013 folder, called "2013-01-25". It still wants to create this 2012 folder. Sorry if I am not using the correct wording but this is what is happening so everything shot in 2013 keeps getting put into a new 2012 folder each time.
As you can see I want the subfolders to be organized and Lightroom already has the date format correct. Please help me with this.
Thank you very much.
I am running Lightroom 4.3 on a 13" Macbook Air with Mac OSX 10.8.2, 1.8 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 memory, with RAW photos from a Canon EOS 6D.

As far as iOS is concerned naming or labeling your photos is pointless since it's a "visual and tactile" device where you touch or swipe what you see or a folder opens to show you it's entire contents. IPad and iPhone was never intended to search for a picture as such like you would on your desktop or laptop.

How do I add photos to the camera roll that were not taken on my iPad? I imported photos to my iPad from my camera, and now I want to add them to my camera roll which is sync'ed with Dropbox as a back up mechanism.

How do I add photos to my camera roll that were not taken one my iPad? I have iMported photos from my camera to my iPad. Theses photos are in the imported photo album. I want to move these photos to my camera roll but can't figure out how to this. I want them in my camera roll because that is the album that syncs with Dropbox where I want to backup my photos. Thank you for your help.

Consider using sshfs to mount your Pi from your Linux boxes. It's much easier to configure and manage than samba. It sounds like you already have your Windows machines mounting your Pi so Samba is doing its job in that respect.
More info on sshfs in the Wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sshfs
To help get you off the dime, here's a modified line from my fstab that I use to mount my Pi with:
gav@PI:/mnt/backup /mnt/rpi/backup fuse.sshfs rw,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other 0 0
Subsitute my mount points with yours.
For a password-less mount:
ssh-copy-id gav@PI
after you've set up ssh and generated some keys on your client box.
Here are some relevant lines from the smb.conf file on my Pi that I use for my one Windows box in the house that might help you with your write permissions:
security = user
hosts allow = 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
guest account = gav
; And my share setup:
[rpi]
comment = Public Stuff
path = /mnt
writable = yes
; printable = no
; write list = @krb
[torrent_dl]
path = /mnt/video/torrent_dl
writable = yes
create mask = 0770
directory mask = 0770
guest ok = Yes
case sensitive = No
read only = No
Hope this helps.

How do you import photos from a library on an external drive to the current library running in iPhoto?

How do you import photos from a library on an external drive to the current library running in iPhoto? I have a few different pictures in each library and would like to have all my pictures in both libraries. The library on the external drive is my backup. I would appreciate any help.

Depends on exactly what you want to do.
Just move some of the Photos? FIle -> Export from one and export the shots to the Finder. Then import them to the other.
This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
Move the photos and all versions and metadata: use iPhoto Library Manager it's the only way to do this while preserving everything. Merge two Libraries into one?
If you have Aperture 3.3 or later and iPhoto 9.3 or later you can merge libraries with Aperture.
Otherwise the only way to merge Libraries is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager
