Iphoto jpeg images and a PC ... HELP!

I was just given a CD with ipeg images from my cousin with a Mac. She mentioned that she used iphoto. The problem is that I have a PC. Will my PC be able to read it? I'm afraid of placing the CD in my PC to find out the truth.
All I need are the images to be printed for my business. Could anyone help me?

But is there a way to convert it so that it can be viewed and used by my PC?<<<</div>
PCs are able to read jpg files. There is no conversion involved.
The only issue that you MIGHT have depends on exactly how your cousin burned the CD. Bad situation #1 is if the CD is not formatted for PCs. (Macs can read PC formatting but PCs can not read Mac formatting.) If that happened, the CD will be unreadable and you'll need to ask your cousin for a replacement with PC formatting.
Bad situation #2 is if your cousin copied the files from the iPhoto library using the finder (think Windows Explorer) instead of using the iPhoto "export" function. If that happened, you will have all the photos and they will all be readable but it might be difficult determining which ones are the correct ones. Post back if you see folders entitled "Originals" and "Modified" and we'll walk you through it.

    hedger,
    How do you expect anyone to help when we don't know a darned thing about the file, abut your setup, exact version of Photoshop and your OS, machine specs, etc.?

  • Help with managing RAW and jpeg images and installing iphoto 9

    Greetings: Fist, let me make the neophyte apology and plea - I'm sorry, I should have come here first; I didn't and now I need your help.
    I have just purchased a macbook pro (still in its box) with updated software for my older imac os x. I have a number of Canon related photo editing programs (that came with my 40D digital SLR) and Adobe photo elements 6 for mac on the imac. Following some erroneous advice I have made a complete mess of the pictures folder's content by trying to delete images directly from that folder (there are now 6000+ images in the folder, many of which are duplicates(?). Most of the images are not tagged or labeled and some have been organized in/by iphoto (I corrupted the iphoto's library structure very early on by disrupting and editing its images - which might explain why iphoto had a difficult time 'finding' and displaying some of my photos). The picture folder now holds jpegs, smallRAW images (a Canon 40D photo format) and various duplicates of the orignal images - (some of the duplicates don't display as images, but as jpeg logos, which, when opened contain duplicate image or are completely black) The first time I downloaded RAW images into iphoto 6 the RAW data displayed as a black image. When shooting in smallRAW on the Canon 40D, the camera produces a jpeg image for 'easy viewing and editing in the camera' but it looks as though iphoto 6 made duplicates of the jpeg and the RAW data and stored them in different locals in the picture file. In an attempt to get the number of images down, I have been trying to delete them from the picture folder. (My daughters both download images rather indiscriminately in hopes of 'editing them on the computer' which inevitably does not happen) and there is a lot of experimental bracketing of images - shooting raw and different Camera formats etc., all of which need to be cleaned up before I proceed.
    Sometime in the not-too-distant future I would like to have iphoto 9 running on my imac with a clean library of images and a seamless way of downloading, editing and storing images (including the RAW data).
    The macbook pro is for my highschool-aged daughter, who will run iphoto 9 but not have any RAW image data on her system. She would like to copy some of the old iMac's images to put into her own iPhoto 9 library (probably using a disk, email or on-line photo service - ideally, I would like to be able to copy and remove a number of those images from my HD and give them to her for the macbook)
    A few questions and queries: Can I 'dis-able' iphoto 6, while I delete images (RAW and jpeg) from the picture file? (and is this even a good idea).
    Once I have edited the # of images down to a reasonable size, should I re-launch iphoto 6, rebuild the iphoto library and then update to iphoto 9 or skip v6 and rebuild with v9?
    And now for the 'how stupid is this guy question' - I really had planned to purchase an external backup; but between new the macbook, car repairs and braces it has never come to fruition. So, I have never properly backed up my images. What is the bare-bones, least expensive method for me to do this? I'd even consider burning everything to disks if that works. I can't afford the $ to purchase a new external hard drive right now (really). Budget is set aside mid-November for one though.
    I've been looking through some other discussion boards and it looks like I'm not the only one having RAW image issues. I know that shooting smallRAW with the companion jpeg is probably not helping things but I take my camera equipment on extended canoe trips - and we like the ease of on-the-spot editing with this format.
    Thanks in advance for your help - Mark

    Terence, Is the picture folder the primary source for the images or does that data reside somewhere else?
    If you gathered them there, then yes.
    I really don't want to have to go through 14,000 images looking for the pictures that I want to keep (or is that my only option?).
    Only you can decide what you want to keep.
    Why does the computer keep making copies of the images and filing them under date and events?
    That's how iPhoto works. It's not a problem usually, only you did go in there and make a problem, and now we are trying to fix it.
    You advise not to muck around in the picture file via preview,
    No I don't. I advise not to much around in the iPhoto Library Folder.
    but if I download images through a program other than iPhotos - image capture or adobe aren't I doing that anyway?
    Adobe what? Adobe is a software manufacturer who make many excellent applications, you need to be more precise. And no, if you import photos with Image Capture or “adobe” no you are not interfering with the iPhoto Library Folder.
    Can you edit a base image file somewhere and remove it from the HD without iphoto making a copy of it and storing it somewhere else?
    This is stunningly easy. Don't use iPhoto. Use an image editor.
    I want to look the negatives, decide which ones I want and throw the rest away. Can that be done or am I way off course?
    Yes, and iPhoto (or similar apps) make this really easy.
    Hook up your camera. Import the pics to iPhoto. Go through the imported pics. Trash the ones you don't want. Then process the ones you do. But you must learn how to use iPhoto to do this successfully
    To trash: put the pic in the iPhoto trash and empty it. This removes the file from iPhoto and the Hard Disk.
    Process it: If you want to use another editor: You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • Re: Java Images and Threads prob Help!!

    Without going through it in detail the problem may be that you're doing the repaint which you hope will draw the image before the image has completed loading.
    Create your ImageIcon (loading the "xxxx.jpeg" files) during program initialisation. And check the load status of the icon, at least in a test version.

    I still cant get the reqd output. Only the 1st image is dispayed and when i click the second code, the 2nd image doesnt come(the first one does not disappear, and even when i click the code 1 i have to minimize/ maximize the screen, to get the image and after that it does not go for the s2nd image 2 come!! )

  • Lost my iPhone 6 Plus images and I need help getting them back.

    I may just have to go to the apple store, but I am going to see if anyone out here can help me out.
    Oct 31st I transferred my SIM from my iPhone 5S to a new iPhone 6 Plus. On December 7th(ish) my new iPhone decided that it would no longer focus on anything that was more than one foot away.
    I was hoping that it would fix itself but it never did. So I went to the Apple Forums and there were some people suggested that wiping out the phone and restoring the system would help.
    Before I wiped out my phone I did a back up. After the phone restored all the images and information came back. The camera started working for a couple clicks then stopped. I wiped out my phone three maybe four more times and it each time the images came back I even wiped out and set it up as a new iPhone and wiped back out and restored with my iCloud and the image still came up!!! ... but the focusing would not work for more than a couple of clicks.
    On December 12 I took it into the iPhone store they said I'd needed a replacement one. Before we removed the "find my phone" and wiped out the device we made sure the phone was backed up. Because I had over  5,500 images on my phone I didn't wait around the store to make sure they all popped up and went home.
    When I got home the phone only showed the 4,200 images I had taken with my iPhone 5S up to October 31st!!! However, under my settings my replacement iPhone 6 Plus shows 5,500 images but I cannot locate them.
    The other thing that is odd is that all my "shared images" from October 31st to December 12th that I took with my 6 Plus are still showing up as well as the ones that I sent via which leads me to think that they are lost out in the iCloud Universe somewhere.
    When logged on to my iCloud.com account it would only allow me to see what is on my current iPhone 6 Plus which includes the images before October 31st and the images I have taken since the iPhone 6 Plus. I cant see any of the images that are on my iPad that are set up under the same account, but it let's me see the icon for the iPad and it also shows me the icon for my other 6 Plus. However, the iCloud website will not allow me to click on the two icons and look at the images.
    I believe that after 30 days from December 12th those images will probably by default be deleted from the iCloud system and I want to make sure that I get them back before they do.
    I understand that apple changed the layout of the images and I did go and look at all my albums... so this not the case.
    I can see my back up from Dec. 9 and Dec 12th and have tried to do the restore on this phone the text and the contacts pull up but the images do not.
    Someone please help me out. I have all the images from our recent Disney World Vacation in there and I would really like to have them back.

    cuz me too same case I have also I lost all my photos 800pics

  • How do I get my iPhoto 4 images and albums into iPhoto5?

    Thought for sure I would find a FAQ listing for this but can't find it anywhere. I copied all my albums and images from CD back up into iPhoto5. But when I log out and log in and open iPhoto5 none of my old images and albums are there. I do see imported libraries for 2002, 2003, 2004 but they are empty. Sorry if this question is redundant (which I'm sure it is) but since I can't find a FAQ file anywhere…
    Also, I have a G5 iMac at home and a dual G5 at work. Any way to specify which is which in profile

    Richard:
    So you only have jpg files on those CDs, right? There are no other data files, album folder, etc. in there.
    I copied all my albums and images from CD back up into iPhoto5.
    By that do you mean you dragged them from the CDs into the open iPhoto window? If you dragged them into the iPhoto Library folder then that's the wrong way to do it. You must import the image files into iPhoto from outside the iPhoto Library folder. Along those lines here are two Apple KB documents that you should be aware of, particularly the second one:
    iPhoto Library Description
    Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto Library folder from the Finder
    What happened to your original iPhoto 4 library folder? Do you still have it intact? If you do then you can place it in your Pictures folder, launch iPhoto 5 and it will find it and tell you it needs to convert the library to version 5. Once done you should have your library converted you'll have everything back up and running, including the albums, rolls, keywords, etc.

  • Jpeg images and color gamuts

    When I make a jpeg image in my camera, it is assigned the adobe rgb gamut.
    What happens when it is imported in LR? Does the gamut change to prophoto automatically?
    When I print the jpeg do I have to specify the color gamut? If it isn't prophoto rgb, there is no place to specify the gamut?
    Can anyone explain?
    Andy

    Yes it is. You might want to read up in the manual about still importing and also about audio sampling rates.

  • Editing JPEG images and PS

    First, I am wondering if Illustrator (CS6) has the ability to manipulate JPEG or raster images in any way, namely erasing pixels with the erase tool.
    I am jumping back and forth between Photoshop and Illustrator and would like to consolidate the process into Illustrator as much as possible.  JPEG images are necessary for this project but the bulk of the work must be done in Illustrator.
    Illustrator and/or PS to AI workflow suggestions are very much welcomed!

    Thanks, emil. "Live-linking" isn't really a term hehe. I just meant use PSD's as image links in your Illy file, edit them in PS all you want and they'll update in Illy, just like emil explains. The Place feature is nice but I typically just drag/drop right into Illy from Windows Explorer, which is perpetually open in my right monitor.
    But if you're just wanted to use bits and peices of an existing PSD, and not the whole PSD, then that's a different story. You then don't want to link in the PSD, of course.
    It's all about knowing what options are at your fringer-tips and choosing the best way, per your worlflow, etc.

  • New t410 image and repair discs help

    First i want to say thanks to everyone for being so helpful.  i've a had a few other questions that you guys have helped me on. 
    i just got my t410 and i am about to make some repair and/or recovery discs.  First of all, when i choose "create system image" from control panel, I get 3 drives to backup:  System_drv, Window 7 os (C, and Lenovo Recovery (Q.  by default, lenovo recovery is NOT selected, should I select it to back that up as well?  What effect will it have on the repair discs that I am going to create afterwards?  And will it effect me reimaging onto a SSD?
    PS. I know some of you guys are on notebookreview, where also posted something similar.  if you've already read this bear with me. 

    "the warranty is still in date, so will getting a new battery be free if i send it in?"
    If your iPod is over 180 days old, they may charge you a $30 handeling fee, but other than that, yes.
    "do they give you just a different ipod mini if you send it in for repair of the battery, if so are they brand new or used?"
    They'll most likely send you a refurbished mini.
    "do they actually ask you?"
    That one, I don't know. Never needed to find out.
    "can you be refused a service of the battery?!!!"
    Yes. If you battery lasts more than half its advertised life, it is within what Apple considers to be acceptable performance and they may refuse service. Also, if your iPod shows signs of excessive physical damage, Apple may refuse service.
    If you're really only getting two hours, I would definately send it in.
    Good luck!

  • Image and table size help

    Hey all:
    I'm obviously new to Dreamweaver MX, and I've been having
    quite a problem with my banner at the top of my site. Using
    photoshop, I made a banner and tried to put it at the top of my
    site. However, when I inserted the image, the image doesn't fit and
    leaves a white space around the image...it doesn't fit into the
    table. So what I had to do is make the background color in that
    specific cell black so it looks like the entire banner fit into the
    table. But I want to change the banner so it's a better designed
    image, but I know that no matter what I do, the image will not fit
    the cell perfectly. How can I do this?
    The site is: www.tudortastic.com
    Thanks!

    A table cell will expand to exactly contain an inserted image
    assuming
    the table's cellpadding and cellspacing are both set to zero
    and you
    have not specified an oversized height or width.

    My friend was working really hard on multiple files - he's been using PS for years - made a mistake by actually saving a psd file that he flattened and then closed the file.
    Is there anyway to get that back? 
    His back up and timemachine are not working... so that is not an option.

  • Image and Jquery issues - help needed

    Let me begin by saying that I have used both of these successfully with pages on my test server and in production.  That said, for whatever reason Dreamweaver is not displaying images called-out in my CSS in either Live View or in browser preview even though they are visible in Design View.  I also can't get jquery slide shows to function in browser preview either - and again the images show up in Design View.  Does this have to do with the fact that I am building this site on my hard-drive and not on a test server?  Has anyone experienced this and then moved their root to a test or production server and had them magically work?

    localhost...
    Image links are (example):
    CSS:
    a.classname {
            width: 60px;
            height: 60px;
            background: transparent url(/images/YouTube_pop.png) no-repeat 0 0;
            float: right;
    HTML:
    <p><a href="http://www.webaddress.com/user/blahblahblah" target="_blank" class="classname"></a></p>
    or
    HTML:
    <img src="images/sld_g04.gif" /> - which shows the images fine in both Live View and browser preview.
