Is it possible to import images into a specific iPhoto album?

I have an Album in iPhoto I use for great sample images that inspire me.
I'd like to import images straight into that Album from the Finder or my iPhone.
Is there any way to do this, I tried using Automator but could not get it to work.

This is on 10.7 - it may not be on 10.6...
1. Launch Automator
2. Choose to make a Service
3. On the top of the Right Hand Pane: Choose 'Service Receives Selected... Image Files from the Drop Down menu
4. Extreme left hand pane select Photos
5. Middle pane: Select 'Import Files to iPhoto' and drag it to the Right Hand Pane
The option to select an Album is built-in to the Action

  • Is it possible to import data into an existing table?

    Hi.. everyone.
    Is it possible to import data into an existing table
    by using import utility?
    The exported table and the existing table have the same name
    and table schema.
    I want to append "new data(exported from oracle8.0.5)" to
    "an existing partitioned-table" by using "oracle 9i import utility".
    Thanks in advance.
    Have a nice day.

  • When importing images into LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a wide yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images onto my desktop LR and there isn't the streak of colour.   Can someone help?

    When importing images into LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a wide yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images onto my desktop LR and there isn't the streak of colour.   Can someone help?
    This is happening even with photos that were taken on another camera, not just mine.  My daughter told me that the laptop recently fell.  The yellow streak is not anywhere else on the laptop, just on the photos in LR.

    I have had this problem on my desktop.  I have been attempting to reproduce it where it can be debugged. Here are some observations/facts in my environment--no conclusions:
    1. I do not import from camera or memory stick directly into LR.  I copy all images (using Explorer) from camera to two different locations (backup location first); and then my working area. In both cases, after files are copied I mark them Read-only.
    2. Poor observation, but in any event: the issue has only occurred when I do a large number of images. Its a poor observation as I have no exact number.  I suspect when I do less than 50 always works well every time.  However, I have also done some very large imports without issue.
    3. Error only occurs with my RAW images--for me that's NEF.  I have multiple cameras--those that only capture jpg images have never had an issue in LR.
    4. Even if the file is marked Read Only issues can still occur.  I then remove the image from the disk using LR -- and then manually (Explorer) copy in my backup image -- re import again and all is well.  I think one time I exited LR and replaced the bad file with a backup and restarted LR and all was well again.
    5. When it occurs I have performed a HASH value on the broken file and on the backed up file to determine if the file contents has changed--and each time the file contents has changed.
    6. I have had this occur immediately after import, but most often it occurs like this... import large number of images; Make changes in Development Module on random image, export jpg of changes--exit LR. Open up LR and file is corrupted.
    7. I have had this issue on multiple USB drives ( okay just 2 different drives have been tested ).
    What next--fire up Process Monitor and monitor the system (specifically LR) to see if it reports any file open for write access when this occurs.  So, far I have not had process monitor actually running when it occurs--one of these days.

  • Is it possible to import music into iPad without using iTunes?

    Do any of of you know whether or not it is possible to import music into iPad, like when you can import pictures, without the use of iTunes ( I don't have a computer)? I have music on my phone and on USB flash drives. Thnx

    If you are in America then you can download your past iTunes music purchases via the store (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519). But no, you can't import from flash drives (the camera connection kit can only import photos and videos) or from an iPhone.

  • Is it possible to import xml into Adobe Muse to populate content similar to InDesign?

    Is it possible to import xml into Adobe Muse to populate content similar to InDesign?

    The only way I see this would be possible is through using JS that you can insert using the Object -> Insert HTML option, you may grab the XML to HTML code from here - http://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_to_html.asp
    In order to test this out, simply download the sample XML file from the following location - http://www.w3schools.com/xml/cd_catalog.xml and save it somewhere locally. Now add this file to your Muse project using File -> Add Files for Upload option, it would then appear within the Assets panel.
    Add the code to your page and update the path referencing the file cd_catalog.xml to assets/cd_catalog.xml. Now on previewing the page in browser, you should see the populated HTML from the XML.
    Thanks,
    Vinayak

  • Importing images into Flash

    I am importing images into Flash only to discover that the images (1280 x 720) are not centered on the stage.  Most of the time the images are off centre by a few pixel widths or in some cases by an inch or more.   I can't get them to centre unless I clear the stage and import a few times.
    Is there a way to import and have the images framed perfectly within the stage.
    I'm currently using Flash CS5.5
    Thank you.

    You can also click the two blue boxes icon under the Timeline and then drag select the whole timeline and that will let you select all your frames at once. then just position them all where you want them at the same time. I attached a screen cap of the area I'm talking about. It's right after the two white boxes.

  • What is the best format to import images into iBA? How should I compress my images before importing? What is the best file format? PNG? Jpeg?

    What is the best format to import images into iBA? How should I compress my images before importing? What is the best file format? PNG? Jpeg? I'm trying to figure out the best file format / compression for importing images into iBA. Also, does anyone know how iBA will compress the file? Are the assets attached (like a website) or flattened out? Does anyone know how iBA handles this? Many many thanks to anyone with insight into this.

    This question is largely answered by the following thread...

  • Problems with importing images into Lightroom cc

    Problems with importing images into Lightroom cc
    I have installed lightroom cc and having trouble imortera images from my Canon 1DX.
    Lightroom starting the capture, but then nothing happens more, if I turn off the camera, I get error message photo 100-200 could not be loaded.
    Now I have left lightroom 5 and where the input port works fine.
    What happened to the upgrade from Lightroom 5 to lightroom cc?
    The camera has the latest software.

    I've now tested in various ways.
    First, I have images on both memory cards in the camera.
    Test1) Selects Not all of the photos in the camera at the input port bearings, it seems to work fine.
    Test 2) selects all cards in the camera and then get the following, Lightroom starts inportera short but stops and nothing happens (Fig.1).
    I turn the camera off after a while and get the next meddelnade (picture 1)
    Which can be translated:
    "The following files were not imported because they could not read (351)
    Property 1-100
    etc. "

    I know your original pl/sql routine contained a COMMIT, but did you use the same code with the COMMIT? If not, are you checking the table from a different session?
    I ran your same code and it worked without issues. Are saying if you do a SELECT COUNT(*) from test007 it returns zero rows?

  • Auto import images into aperture...and continue importing...

    i know that there is a script to import images into aperture, but i need to use this with a tethered camera....so i use a canon app to shoot files to a folder and as the files come in, i need them to get imported as they keep coming in....i am only referencing them, so they are actually staying within the folder....i can import the files but i don't know how to/which command "keeps checking the folder for new files that came in" hope this makes sense....
    i know that there is a "hot folder" app available which seems to be a automator app, but it is superslow and only brings in every 4th or 5th image (and sometimes just brings everything to a halt...)

  • Importing images into projects

    can any1 please tell me how to import images into my netbeans IDE projects?this should be such that the jar file that is created displays them correctly- i am having this said problem with .jar files.
    plz help!!

    i use a function createImageIcon(ImageIcon icon) wfor which i provide a definition.
    the definition is as given in the java tutorial as follows
    protected static ImageIcon createImageIcon(String path)
    java.net.URL imgURL = LabelDemo.class.getResource(path);
    if (imgURL != null) {
    return new ImageIcon(imgURL, description);
    } else {
    System.err.println("Couldn't find file: " + path);
    return null;
    the program executes perfectly from the IDE when i use the run finction of F6 key. I use netbeans IDE. the images are kept in a folder named images in the 'src' folder of the project. this folder is used to store source files by the IDE. The main thing is i put the images in such a place that the program executes perfectly without errors from the IDE. using the IDE which shows the contents of a .jar file, i verified that the images are indeedd present in the JAR file. however i still continue to get the same error. infact after add ing the images folder and running a 'clean and build' operation , the only difference is that the jar file, which still doesnt display images on buttons, labels etc has increased in size confirming tht the images have been added- i also verified this from the command line.
    but the same problem persists.

  • Importing Images into IDVD for Slidshow

    I am at a loss as to what is the best image size, resolution size, etc. when it comes to importing images into IDVD. I usually size my prints
    4 x 6 @ 300 dpi.. This looks fine in the slideshow preview. After I burn the dvd and view it, the images lose quality, etc..
    Any help would be appreciated

    What you're creating in iPhoto is a movie file that will get cut off in iDVD because of the TV over scan issue. Only stills imported and assembled into a slideshow in iDVD can be scaled to avoid the over scan.
    So to get what you want you'll have to import the stills into iDVD from iPhoto and create the slideshow there.
    If you have Quicktime Pro you can mask the QT movie with a black mask and cause the iPhoto QT movie to be scaled to the TV safe area. The steps are below. You'll have to experiment with the final sizes to get it exact:
    Masking Movies to the TV Safe Area for iDVD
    The mask should be 640 x 480 pixels and the movie at approx. 580 x 386 (I arrived at this figure by making a snapshot of the TV save area of an iDVD project with Snapz). You can set this size after you’ve joined it with the mask movie with Quicktime Player Pro.
    Import the black mask jpg file into iMovie and and export it as a .mov file at the same length as your movie (there may be a way to not have to create a specific length mask for each movie but I haven't found it. If the times do not match the movie file will be synced to the length of the mask movie).
    Open the mask movie in QT Player Pro and then open your regular movie and make it the front window of the two. Now you'll need to run a QT Player AppleScript titled "Merge Movie 1 into Movie 2". You can get it from this Apple site: Quicktime Player Scripts.
    Then run the script. You can then run the merged movie to check it out. Your movie will be located in the upper lefthand corner of the window when played.
    When you open the Movie Properties window from the Window menu for the combined file you’ll see the following:
    Video Track 1: the black mask
    Video Track 2 : you movie file
    Tween track: Have no idea what this is.
    Sound track: self explanaotry
    Black mask.
    To set the size of your movie to the correct size select it in the Properties window and click on Visual Settings pane. Then enter 580 in the first field and hit enter. With the Preserve Aspect Ration box checked the other size will automatically be set.
    To center the video track in the center of the mask select the Video Track 2 item and plug in a offset of about: 70 & 45. You'll probably have to play with that to fine tune the centering. Doing the math and subtracting the movie dimensions from the mask dimensions and dividing by two just didn't get it perfectly centered bit with a little eyeballing and trial and error it got there.
    Now save as a new self contained movie after checking the High Quality box at the bottom right.
    You can now import it into iDVD for preview and burning. One drawback is that you can't invoke the TV save area for a movie in iDVD to check it out. But you can mark it on the monitor screen while viewing a menu or slideshow and then play the movie to see how close you came. I found that the size was still a little under the TV safe area when burned and played on my TV. It may be the difference in normal CRT screens and flat screens, etc.

  • Is it possible to enter events into a specific iCal calendar, then print a list of those events with the name and date on a single sheet?

    Is it possible to enter events into a specific iCal calendar, then print a list of those events with the name and date on a single sheet?  I don't need the calendar grid.  I just want a list of events on a particular calendar, and their dates.  Is that possible? 

    Not easily. Two possibilities:
    1) If all the events have some common feature (eg you have included "XXX" in all the summaries), search for that feature then select and copy the found items at the bottom of the window. You can then paste them into TextEdit or a spreadsheet for printing
    2) You could write an Applescript to locate the events and write them into a text file for printing.
    The first one will probably give you what you want.
