Move photo from message and add to contacts

A friend sent a photo as a text message, now I would like to add it to her contact information. I saved it to the "saved file in the text message app, but still can't see how to move it to the contact photo. When I open the contact edit screen and choose the blank photo, it gives me only two choices, Camera or Photos. I choose photos but I can't find the "saved text message photo on my TREO 680.
The other choice is to "add to contact" which creates a new contact and then I would have to move all her information over. I would think there would be a simpler way.
Any hints?
Post relates to: Treo 680 (AT&T)

Those two fields should not be flashing. Do they flash on every contact?
Also if you turn on Airplane mode does it still flash?

Move photos from PC and MacBook to iPhoto 9.5.1 on new iMac

Hello,
I've just bought a new iMac, installed OSX 10.9.1 and updated iPhoto to version 9.5.1.
Prior to getting the iMac, my photos were stored some on a PC and some on a MacBook - for this reason, I didn't run the Migration Assistant as part of my Set Up process. One of the major reasons for getting the iMac was to centralise all of my photos on one machine and with 1TB HD, I thought the iMac ideal. Unfortunately, I am now totally stumped as to how to move the photos from their different locations into iPhoto on the iMac:
I cannot now use Migration Assistant to get the photos from my old MacBook as it insists on setting up another user; I'm not 100% sure where all the photos are stored, even if I knew an alternative method of getting them off the MacBook and onto the iMac
Can I simply copy all my PC photos to e.g. a flash-drive or a separate hard-drive and then copy them to the iMac? The PC photos are all in folders and sub-folders - will they become Events?
Is it even worth the effort or should I put the PC and MacBook photos onto DVDs and then start a new library on the iMac?
I am totally pi**ed of with the whole thing - I bought the iMac because I enjoyed the MacBook so much but I'm beginning to wish I'd gone for a PC where things are so much more transparent.
To use a quote I saw elsewhere on a Community discussion - "I drive a car but I'm not a mechanic" so I would really appreciate any advice or help anyone can offer.
Many thanks.

1. To move the Library from the other Mac;
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network, Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
The photos from the PC:

I updated my 2009 Mac to Mountain Lion yesterday but cannot add photos from my iPhoto library to contacts anymore. Drop down menu only shows "default, recent and camera" but I cannot get to iPhoto library.

When you have iPhoto and Contacts open and try to drag a picture for iPhoto to the Contacts photo frame do you get a + symbol? if not you should! from there the the pop menu should appear and then you can select the picture and click on done

How to move photos from an e-mail message into a PSE-4 catalog.

I have an Earthlink e-mail message with a large number of photographs that I want to move into my PSE4 catalog but I don't know how to do it. I'd appreciate some definative instructions on how to accomplish this. The photos are in my windows XP computer. P.S. I'm not very "computer-wise".

You have to use your e-mail program to save the photos to individual files on your hard disk. Then, in PSE4, File->Get Photos->From Files and Folders and point PSE to your newly saved photos.

Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied? Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied? Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

If you've emptied the trash, ehtn no. However if you have a backup, like Time Machine, or a recent backup copy of your photo library you could recover the photos from the trash.
The answer to getting a snapshot form iMovie depends on what version you have.
I should add it technically may be possible to recover the emptied trash, but if you really want to do that you would need to download a utility software that can attempt to recover deleted files. Do it soon before you start writing more data to that disk. At the moment I don't have a recommendation for such a program. Maybe someone else out there will offer suggestion.

Using iPhoto, I want to move photo from one event to another I export it to desktop and then reimport. Titles and other info vanish; only the original jpg number comes thru. How do I avoid this?

Don't do that - flag the photo and go to the target event and use the add flagged photo to selected event command to move it intact within iPhoto

Open itunes, connect ipad, select what you want, sync

I'm getting a message that my iCloud storage is almost full (5.0 GB, 186 mb remaining). I have transferred all photos from iPad and iPhone to Mac. I've deleted all but 200 photos on each of these devices. Data storage is still same.

I have transferred all photos from iPad and iPhone to Mac. I have deleted almost all photos from both (about 200 remaining on each). I do not store tunes or videos. After making these changes, I still have the same message in iCloud.

Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage > Select your device (listed as 'This iPhone' or 'This iPad') then look at the next backup size. Compare the 'Next Backup Size' to the 'Backup Size' on taht same screen. If the next backup size is smaller, then you have successfully removed some content from your device.
Now the question still lingers as to why your iCloud is still showing so full right? Well, iCloud keeps the last 3 backups from each device. It doesn't duplicate them, but it uses an incremental backup system. So basically your device's backup will take up as much space on iCloud as the largest backup of the last 3 backups. With that being said, your iPhone and ipad will eventually shrink the size of your backup (if that next backup size is smaller) in about 3 days (3 backups assuming your iOS devices backup once as day when you are sleeping).
Can I expedite this? Well of course you can. If you want, you can Delete the backup from both of the devices via that same screen then go back to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup, turn iCloud Backups back on, then backup now. Keep in mind that if you do this, it will clear out your last 3 backups (and cannot be undone), but it may also take a long while for your iPhone and iPad to complete that inital backup after deleting the old backups.
I hope this helps. (My Recommendation: Basically check what's in paragraph one, then it will works itself out in a few days.)

As to iPhoto
Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
For iMovie support please post in the iMovie forum

I can't move photos from iPhoto to my secondary hard drive or to a burn folder. I have never had a problem with this before. This is something new.   They will not drop into either folder. Nothing happens.

I can't move photos from iPhoto to my secondary hard drive or to a burn folder. I have never had a problem with this before. This is something new.   They will not drop into either folder. Nothing happens.
I checked my secondary harddrive and there is plenty of memory.
I emptied my burn folder but the photos still will not drop into it.
I created a new burn folder, no luck with this either.
230 photos is the maximum size of the events I am trying to move from iPhoto to save elsewhere.
I have shut down and restarted my computer.   No change. The photos still will not drop out of iPhoto.
My Mac Computer Storage shows that I have 62.2GB free out of 249.2GB (movies, photos and contacts taking up the most space)
My Lacie External Harddrive (2TB capacity) shows that I have 1.79TB available. It shows that 207,729,520,640 bytes (207.73 GB on disk) are used.
I have never had this problem before. It is usually very easy to move my photos from iPhoto.
I am not a computer expert (I work in surgery so don't have a need for lots of computer knowledge) so please explain in simple terms.
Thank you so much for any help you can provide.
I really appreciate it.

YES Terence! Thank you. Exporting allowed me to move my photos from iPhoto into the Burn Folder on my desktop.   But that doesn't explain why I'm having to go that route now.   Have I done something (accidentally changed some setting) on my computer that will not allow me to just click and drag anymore?   I really liked the convenience of the click and drag option.
I don't have the time tonight to export and burn a lot of CD/DVDs. I'll try that tomorrow and make sure my photos are moving properly. I also need to export photos to my external hard drive to make sure that route is working.
Wouldn't you know that my Apple Care Plan runs out this Wednesday?! I need to make sure everything is working properly before that expires.
Thank you so much for your help.   I really, really appreciate it.

Correct.
Drag and Drop the newly created Event into/onto the Event you wish to add it to.
You will be asked if you want to Merge Events.. click Yes.
