IPhoto..How do I copy a photo in one album and paste it into another?

I have IPHOTO 9.5.1 I used to be able to drag and drop but it won't do that anymore.
then something is wrong - drag and drop between albums should work. Itb is working for me without a problem. While viewing an album, select the photos inside that you want to include anither album and drag them to that album in the sidebar of the Source List like this:
Is that, how you have tried it?
If this does not work, repair your iPhoto library.

How do I get my photos and music back into new version iTunes from my iPad?

I have the new version of iTunes (11 0 2 26) for Windows which installed over my old copy. I see none of my music etc even after it claims to have synced and backed up. How do I get my photos and music back into iTunes from my iPad? It syncs OK with calendar and contacts from Outlook and I can force copying of apps and books but why does it not show music and photos in the iTunes library? help please.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to a recent state.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

I want to cut out a head from a photo and insert it into another photo again. In the head hair flying in the wind and the blue sky can be seen between the hairs. This blue sky I want to remove, so I can only use the head with hair flying in another photo.

This blue sky I want to remove, so I can only use the head with hair flying in another photo. Is it possible to simply delete this blue color of the sky?

Make your selection and then use Refine Edge.

Drag the contents of a cell and drop it into another cell

dear frankson,
pls send the source code for drag the contents of a cell and drop it into another cell.

When I drag and Drop on a Mac (OS 10.2.3), the OS
builds a transparent image of the component being
dragged and uses it instead of the default cursors.
This wouldn't be a big problem except that the
component it renders is the ENTIRE spreadsheetThis is the default behavior on Mac. You can manually set the dragimage in startdrag(...) in dragGestureRecognized(). So you just need to create an image of what your are actually dragging.
If you simple want to remove the image just set it to some 1x1 pixel image or a transparent gif...

I tried copying a photo and pasting it in another event/group within iPhoto but the paste feature doesn't work. This wasn't an issue with both Leopard and Snow Leopard. Do you have any solutions or tips?

I bought a new MacBook Pro with OsX Lion as operating system. I use iPhoto a lot and when I tried copying a photo then pasting it to another event/group, the 'paste' feature doesn't work. This wasn't the case with Leopard and Snow Leopard where the 'paste' feature worked. What I did was to paste the photo first to the desktop before transferring it to the new event/group. I brought my Mac to the Apple store where I bought it and the technicians were themselves surprised that the 'paste' feature didn't work. Chalked it up to glitches in the Lion os. So how do we fix this? I just find it absurd that a feature that used to work in Snow Leopard has been disabled in Lion, and the user still has to undergo an additional step to make it work, when new technology is supposed to make things easier for users.
Also, hasn't anyone noticed that it takes longer for the computer to boot upon opening?

Instead of copy and paste drag the photo to the new event. Or flag it and use the add flagged photos to selected event command

How do I copy a photo from one folder to another one in Aperture

I'm old and feeble I cannot figure out how to copy a photo from one folder to another folder and my 13 year old grandson can't figure it out either, so I feel better about it
thanks
canonmick

Um ... that doesn't seem ... like a useful workflow. When you say "folder" do you mean a Folder in Aperture (shown on the Library tab of the Inspector) or a folder in Finder? They are not at all the same thing.
Aperture is an image manager, with the requisite file management built-in. Finder is a file manager.
If you provide a full description of what are doing, and what you are trying to do, someone here can set your straight.
Fwiw, IME, the learning curve if very long and uphill, but gentle. What's unusual (esp. for Apple products) is that the landmass of Aperture is separated from the rest of your computer knowledge by a moat. What I mean is, the first leap is the hardest. After that, you'll be on firm ground, ready to explore.

How do I take one photo and add it onto another?

I want to take the photo of a cheque, and add it to a photo so it looks like the person is holing a large cheque (from shoes to waste sixed cheque)
All assistance appreciated

Easy Photoshop task:
Open both check image and desired target image in Photoshop
Switch to check image, trim out background stuff (possibly making sure the check is on its own layer, to ease background removal)
Select all (control-A), copy (Control-C)
Switch to target image
Paste (Control-V) - This will paste the check image into a new layer of the document
Re-size / transform (Control-T) - This is where you'll be able to tell if the check image was high enough resolution, and if you need another image
Since the target document will have the check on a new layer, it gives you plenty of freedom for other corrections, adjustments, etc.
There's a few other shortcuts to achieve the same effect, but this 'feels' the most straightforward.
Cheers!

How do I upload or drag and drop folders into my website folder content?

Am I limited to uploading or dragging and dropping only files? I have folder content I want to place in these folders in mmy Creative Cloud Accounts websites?

Thank you Manish-Sharma for offering help. I have way too many individual files to upload singly. It would only be opportune to upload the individual folders. Until Adobe creates such to upload folders, there is no reason to upload any content so I will not be able to benefit from displaying any content. I just do not have the time to upload by this means. So, it is a feature that makes no worthwhile availability in Adobe Creative Cloud to me. This really needs attention by Adobe otherwise it is a major point to not continue using Adobe Creative Cloud. It makes no sense to lack the ability. John

How do you copy a group and paste it to another file?

Please answer soon

If this does not work, confirm that the the Modes are in common.
Note that you don't have to Copy & Paste the Source. The drag takes care of that automatically.

I have just updated Photoshop Elements from 12.0 to 12.1 and I am now unable to drag layers from one file and drop them into another. Help!

I was able to do this until I updated. I need help fast as I need this feature to complete daily tasks for my job. I've come to a halt with my work because of this.
I have the two files open as shown below. I'm trying to insert the image in the file on the left to the file on the right but when I drag to drop into the file, it doesn't happen.
The cursor indicates it has picked up the image but it doesn't indicate that it can't be dropped, it just doesn't work. Help!!

Given that you're on XP, we'd better try the following document:

In iPhoto, I want to copy certain photos in an event and then have the copies in another event WITHOUT removing the original photos from their original event; how to do that?

in iPhoto, I want to copy certain photos in an event and then have the copies in another event WITHOUT removing the original photos from their original event; how to do that?

The only way to do that is to export the image to a new file and then re-import it.
It's not really the intended way of working as it uses twice the disk space and is inefficient.
Use Albums instead. A Photo can be in any number of albums and use no extra disk space as it just simply references the image in the Library. Albums can be sorted any way you want - including manaually - and can have image from anywhere in the Library just by drag and drop.

How can I remove all photos and directories from iPhoto?

How can I remove all photos and directories from iPhoto as if it was a brand new install?
I am new to iPhoto and was unaware of how it works, honestly I still am a little confused as to when pics I am using 1/2 the time, some from iPhoto and some from MyPics.
Anyhow, I am looking to remove all photos from iPhoto because during the migration of all my photos from PC to MAC, somehow my timeline became messed up and all my photos that have been logged my dates since 1998 are now all messed up.
Although all my year folders are still in tact, IE 1998-2006, the subfolders and like pics are all intertwined somehow.
And when I search iPhoto for a given year, photos from 2,4, 8 yrs back show up in 2006.
Anyhow, I have selected and deleted all photos and folders within iPhoto, and then import the desired photos from MyPics, only to have the photos double up in the library. ( The old ones that should be deleted and the new imports)
I simply don't get it, they fill the trash and disappear when it's emptied, then reappear when iPhoto re-opens!
Can someone help????
I have completely reworked all my photos so that they are all in the correct folders outside of iPhoto, and now I want to import those and only those pics with that file structure.
IE Structure = YEAR > MONTH > DAY ( or if needed) > DAY/EVENT

Do you want to remove the existing full sized image files also? If so then just drag the iPhoto Library folder from the Pictures folder to the Trash and empty it. But be warned you'll lose all of your image files.
You are dragging the files to the iPhoto Trash bin and then using the iPhoto->Empty Trash menu, right?
In copying your photos to myspace and then back the original capture date may not be retained and then either the created date or modified date will be used by iPhoto. If the files in the current library are the originals from your camera then those have the best chance of retaining the correct Captured Date. You can check that out by dragging the Originals folder from your iPhoto Library folder to the desktop and then trash what remains of the iPhoto Library folder. Then launch iPhoto and it will ask you to create an new library. Then import that Originals folder and it's subfolders by dragging it into iPhoto's open window. You'll keep the same rolls that was. The roll dates may change but you can check the captured date of the files by using the calendar in the Source pane.
You won't be able to keep your folder structure within iPhoto. Each outside folder will result in a roll with the same title as the folder. You'll be able to create folders in the Source pane to put albums inside. You can create a smart album to include all photos in a certain date range, line one month.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

I don't think you need Preview.
Select the image and use File->export and you have full control over the size and compression.
