HT4889 How can I transfer my iPhoto photos and iTunes library to my new iMac?

How can I transfer my iPhoto photos and iTunes library to my new iMac?

If the Migration Assistant won't do it, move them over as you would any other folder; they're located in the Pictures and Music folders of your home folder by default. The iPhoto library needs to be transferred via a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended or through an AFP network share.

Can no longer print selected iPhoto photo with HP printer

iPhoto 09. Cannot print selected iPhoto photo with HP printer. I select the photo from iPhoto Library, go to File>print. The screen for Print comes up with another one on top of it that is blank but with text "Print...Processing 1..OK". Clicking OK prints from that screen "Print, Processing page 1" (on correct 3x6 photo paper in black!).
I have run Apple Software Update. Run Permissions with problems (one: "Permissions differ on Library/Printers/h...". Have reinstalled iPhoto which has left one icon on Dock and 3 on desktop: iPhoto 07-27-19.app; iPhoto.app; iPhoto Library that I don't know what to do with with them, so just use the one on the dock which opens iPhoto Library.
Believe I read that after reinstalling iPhoto, a plug-in (possibly third party plug-in for HP?) must be installed. I have updated my HP printer to latest driver.
Would you advise how I can print photos in my iPhoto Library again, and also get those iPhoto icons off my desktop which only confuse me. Thank you for your prompt attention.

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

Editing iPhoto photos in Photoshop Elements 4--5+ photos in the bin?

Hi,
PSE4 is my preferred photo editor in iPhoto. When I attempt to edit/open more than 4 iPhoto photos at a time (which, given my preferred photo editor setting, automatically opens the photos for editing in PSE4), only a maximum of 4 photos appear at a time in the PSE4 Photo Bin. Why is this? I have opened many dozens of photos simultaneously in PSE4 before, all stored without a problem in the photo bin... Please help!
Thanks,
Maine

iPhoto will send no more than 4 pics at a time to an external editor. This is to avoid inexperienced users inadvertently opening their entire library in their editor. There is no way around this.

IPhoto photo stream time zone/ duplicates issue

I've got a bunch of duplicate photos in my iPhoto library on my Macbook from both manually importing photos from iPhone when connected and from syncing via Photo Stream.
I've since disactivated Photo Stream, but still had duplicate photos on my computer.
I've merged all the albums called "October Photo Stream" with the other imports into one big list sorted by date.
The problem is, I was travelling quite a bit across different time zones, so they're not all really in order. It seems the Photo Stream copy of the photo (the one with the keyword attached) has the time and date as my "home" timezone, not as the "local" timezone as per the time where the photo was taken.
Is this by design?
I'd now like to remove all the duplicates and was thinking I'd just search for Photo Stream keyword, then select all those pics and delete.... the problem is I'm not sure which ones actually have duplicates as they don't all have duplicates! I really can't figure out how/why some exist as duplicates and others don't... perhaps something to do with when I was/wasn't near a wifi network (applicable while I was travelling but less so for pictures at home as my wifi is always on at home).
This photo stream "feature" is confusing as ****, and don't even get me started on the other iCloud services like docs... could they have designed it any more counter intuitive if they tried?
Any advice/ assistance appreciated.
Further, if I reactivate photo stream in future, how do I stop this behaviour from happening again?

I've noticed this same problem. I just got back from a trip overseas and the time on all my iPhone photos imported from the photo stream is wrong by two hours (the time difference). It seems a bit stupid to have the photos time stamped with your home time zone, and it means that when I imported the photos from my camera they're all out of order and I need to adjust the time on all the iPhoto photos. That's not particulary hard, it just seems unncessary. I hope someone form Apple notices this and fixes the problem.

How do I delete photos in iphoto photo stream

I cannot access my iPhoto photo stream to delete photos

What is your iPhoto version?
Have you perhaps the "Shared" section in the Library sidebar hidden? Hover with the mouse to the right of the title "shared" to reveal the hidden Show/Hide control and click "Show" to reveal the iCloud in the source list.

Moving iPhoto, Photo Booth, & iMovie library to an external drive

I've search through most of the support community and still havent found a concrete answer. Like most my current internal harddrive is about full. Mostly filled with photos and movies. I have a external harddrive that Time Machine is enabled. I also backed u my iphoto & photo booth library to the external drive. I have yet to move over any imovie data until I am sure that process will work.
How do I move all data over so that iphoto, photo booth, & imovie can be ran fom my external harddrive. Also how can I ensure that imovie will direct itself to the iphoto library on my external because all movies from the past use the iphoto library as its directory. Once this is done I would like to delete all previous data off of my nternal drive
Thank you

Do you want to store your movies and photos on your Time Machine drive? That is not recommended, since you will not have a backup, if the media are only on your backup volume. You will need a second drive in addition to your backup drive, and this drive needs to be formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled), otherwise you cannot store photo libraries (iPhoto, Aperture) or iMovie events on that drive, see: Format external drives to Mac OS Extended before using with Aperture (remember, thta formatting erases a drive, you have to save any contents to another drive before formatting).
For iPhoto: Once your external drive has the correct file system, simply select your iPhoto library in the Finder and drag it to that drive. Then double click the copied library to open it in iPhoto.
For iMovie: To move your iMovie events to an external drive, use the event browser in iMovie - don't use the Finder!
See this Help page: Copy or move video from your Event Library to an external ... http://support.apple.com/kb/ph2302
I don't use Photo Booth, so I do not know how to move your Photo Booth photos.

Each time I create a new album in IPhoto, photos from another album or from photo stream are automatically dumped into the new album.. how do I create a blank album and then import photos from a flash drive into the new album?

just import the iPhoto
Surely you meant "just import the photo"? The Spell checker is dangerously creative !

I've bought my 1st Mac, since than I've replaced my old disk to a new one - and at the lab they created my new admin's name as admin.. I've changed it after 'root'ing - and now I can't find my photos either at iPhoto/photo booth,what can I do to restore ?

Please I'll be thankfull.

I stated that I did try to do all of this when I first set up the new computer...I did do the Setup Assistant numerous times but my old computer kept freezing half way through. Even if I did it when I first got the new computer back in Septemeber, I would have had the same issue b/c my old computer has been 'broken' for a while. My old computer can't handle doing too much at once and I think the setup and then migration functions I tried were too much. That's why I was hoping I could use the migration function piecemeal. I wish I could just check off the exact files and folders I want vs. having to choose it at the 'user' level...that's too much for my old computer to have to transfer.

How do you eliminate duplicate iphoto photos?

There are two apps, actually one app and one Applescript script, for finding and removing duplicate photos from iPhoto. They are:

Is this external drive a Time Machine backup?
Then find what you want using Time Machine (or whatever application you used to make the backup).
Your iPhoto pictures are in the iPhoto library in Users/Pictures.

IPhoto/photo stream

I am new to iMac. I plugged in my iPhone to upload all my trip pictures into an event in iPhoto. Only some of them came and the others seem to be in photo stream album. I wanted to move them from photo stream and put them into an event. I dont think I am understanding photo stream very well.

Hello RossSE,
Thank you for your question. It sounds like you are trying to organize your photos in iPhoto, but Photo Stream has imported some of your photos and you manually imported some photos.
When you enable Photo Stream in iPhoto, photos on the iCloud server are imported to your library in an event for that month by default. My Photo Stream stores up to 1000 photos for up to 30 days, so you may need to connect your iPhone to import videos or photos that did not make it to My Photo Stream because of the 1000 photo limit or the 30 day limit.
You can learn more about Photo Stream here:
My Photo Stream overview
http://help.apple.com/iphoto/mac/9.5/#phtac7ec5f4
If you would like to turn off the automatic import of photos and only manually import photos by connecting your iPhone to the computer, you can disable the automatic import in iPhoto > Preferences > iCloud:
Turn on My Photo Stream in iPhoto
http://help.apple.com/iphoto/mac/9.5/#pht7aaadf50
Alternatively, you can rearrange the photos in Events using the steps in this article:
Move photos between events
http://help.apple.com/iphoto/mac/9.5/#pht6d6094b4
Additionally, you may want organize your photos using Albums. Personally, I prefer organizing my iPhoto library with Albums:
A photo album in iPhoto is just like one you would create with printed photos: It’s a collection of photos you select from your library and arrange in the order you want.
You can create photo albums to:
Focus on a particular subject, such as your favorite nature photos
Group pictures that you want to send to a friend, post on a webpage, or burn to a CD or DVD
Gather a decade of anniversary photos
Find more information about organizing your library using standard Albums or Smart Albums at the following link:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Clarification of iPhoto/Photo Stream

Hi,
I am having difficulty understanding how iPhoto handles photos taken on an iOS device(iPhone or iPad). Currently I have my iPhoto set to do an automatic import when taking picture. I take picture on iPhone, it shows up on iPad photo stream. It shows up in iPhoto photo stream file. Now I delete the photo in the photo stream on iPhone. It deletes on iPad photo stream and in iPhoto photo stream. However the photo is in iPhoto in pHotos and events. So what is the best way to manage this. Should I turn off the 'Automatic import' in iPhoto or have it save the photo in iPhoto photos/events? If so I suspect the photo will not be saved to photos and events. So the photo will only be in the photo stream. Whcih leads to my question 'when will the photo be saved in the photos or events in iPhoto. If it sits in the Photo Stream is there any risk of losing the picture?
Thanks and I look forward to your reply.

Apples instruction are here - http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
PS is not a storage place - it is a transmission place - it holds the lessor last 30 days or 1000 photos - if you want to keep photos you eed to import them into iPhoto - this can be automatic or manual as you choose - if it is manual then only the photos you manually import are saved in iPhoto - if it is automatic then eveny photo in PS is saved
It is pretty simple
So what is the best way to manage this. Should I turn off the 'Automatic import' in iPhoto or have it save the photo in iPhoto photos/events?
That totally depends on what you want

Uploading custom pages to iPhoto photo books

I am trying to upload a custom page with photos and text to my iPhoto photo book. I am a digital scrapbooker. But I need to know the exact size with bleed to make sure that the text and photos appear the way I have designed. Is it possible to find out the size of the photo books with bleeds?
I am using version 9.5.1 of iPhoto.

I've not seen that in iPhoto '08 - iPhoto '09 does have a thumbnail bug like that that has not been fixed yet
Try clicking on the blank thumbnail and seeing what it shows in the main window
And remember the sure way to know what is going to print is to preview it according to this article - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference
