Load some iphoto events onto macbook air

Having bought a MBA with limited storage I can access all my iphto events via an external hard disk and via home sharing BUT if I want to carry say all the events from 2011/12 on my MBA how can I sort of split or copy part of my library stored on my EHD
Thnaks

Just importing won't work. You would need to Export from the Library on the External to the Finder and then import.
You need two Libraries, one on the External, one on the Internal
Use iPhoto Library Manager to move the selected Events/ Albums/ Photo between them

Will not down load some music cd onto macbook air using super drive

I can not down load some music from my cds onto macbook air via super drive. These cds can be down loaded onto other computers but they are rejected by my computer.

I'm sorry to hear that . I was lucky that mine was under warranty. It was a bad drive and the replacement drive that was sent by HP works perfectly. My experience with HP support was very good. It took a bit of time to work through all the questions, but once we determined that it was bad, they promptly sent a new one out.
Since Geek squad gave you bad information, i.e., the DVD/CD drive really was bad, can you speak to them? They may be able to help with a good drive in the interest of good customer service. The only other option that I can think of that might work is to try to find an inexpensive used drive from one of the local computer shops in your area or on the net.

Hi there, my photos from Iphone wont upload onto Macbook Air Iphoto. It says it's loading but never does, Anyone have a solution?

hi there, I am trying to upload my photos from my Iphone 5s to my Iphoto on my macbook air, but they wont load. \
It says "loading" but it's not.... does anyone have a solution? Thanks in advance.

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

Problem is with my iPhoto on my Macbook air. I am trying to move my library from my airbag onto my passport drive. I did it and deleted it from the airbag but it simply re appeared possibly from the cloud. Not sure what to do next.

Sorry - we can not see you
what do you have? Version of iPhoto? Of the OS? How is the passport connected to your Mac? What format is the passport (for the iphoto library it must be Mac OS extended (journaled) )? The iPhoto library is not and can not be on the cloud (maybe later with the Photos Application)

Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

I have deleted iPhoto from my MacBook Air. When I try to reinstall it, itunes tries to charge me. Is there a way to reinstall the old version for free?

I have deleted iPhoto from my MacBook Air. When I try to reinstall it, itunes tries to charge me. Is there a way to reinstall the old version for free?

depening on what OS you're running you should be able to reinstall it without charge since it's part of the operating system. if running 10.6.8 or earlier you will need to use the applications install disc if there is one or if you only have one disc you can put it in and do a reinstall of the OS which will put the iphoto back on. if running 10.7 or 10.8 can sign into the app store w/ the same apple id that is associated w/ the mac and it should show in your purchases for you to reinstall it. you may need to click on the accept button if it appears next to the iphoto in your purchase listing.

What can i do if i accidentally deleted my iPhoto from my macbook air and the App Store couldn't recognize that i have bought it before and required me to buy it again ... should i buy it again or what ? i can't manage my photos now ...

Log into the app store using the Apple ID you used to set your computer up. Look under purchases. If it is not there you may need to accept it or to unhide it

I am having problems updating my iPhoto on my MacBook Air, please help?

I started to update iPhoto on my MacBook Air, but I had bad wifi at home so I paused it. But now that I have good and fast wifi, I press Resume and it asks for my apple ID, so I put it, but then it says that the connection failed, can someone please help!

Back up all data.
Quit the App Store application if it's running. Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
open $TMPDIR../C
Press return. A folder should open. From that folder, delete the subfolder named "com.apple.appstore".
Launch the App Store and try again.

If your MacBook Air model originally shipped with an install thumbdrive, reinstall it from there. Otherwise, open the Mac App Store, sign in with the Apple ID you registered the computer under, choose the Purchases tab, click on Accept if prompted, and download it.

I accidentally moved all my iPhoto events onto one. I have a recent backup. How do I go about recovering my events?

You could try Events -> Autosplit Selected Event
And you always need a back up. Always.

HT1199 Can't access iphoto on my MacBook Air

I can't access iphoto on my MacBook Air. I went to move photos to make more room on my disk (kept getting message that disk was almost full) and it won't bring up any photos. What do I do now?

Hold the Option or alt key when starting iPhoto.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when you try to start it.

How do I install from superdrive onto macbook air

I am trying to install adobe photoshop onto macbook air with superdrive. How do I do this?

Connect the superdrive and insert the disc, it should start the installer.
If not, Go to Finder > Preferences > General tab > check CDs, DVDs and iPods under Show these items on the desktop. This should give you an icon on the desktop of the Superdrive. Double click the icon and choose the installer app on the DVD.
Regards,
Captfred
