Open old photos from DVD

Hi,
I've got old photos from iPhoto (2007 and older) saved on DVD and can't open it with the current version(11).
Where is the problem?
Thanks for help!

Hi this is a problem that can be fixed in theses few easy steps: you insert the DVD to you computer. Then you go to some words that say DCIM. Then highlight all of the pictures, then you can drag them into your iphoto.
Thank you for asking apple experts. <Edited by Host> thank you!

Copy photos from DVD to Mac?

I would like to copy photos from DVD to Mac computer anyone know how to do it.

If the DVD was made on a Mac and they're JPEGs they should openable in Preview from the DVD. If so, just select them and drag them into a new folder to copy onto your hard drive. If the Mac doesn't recognize the DVD and it doesn't mount in the finder window or on the desktop, I'd say you're out of luck. But there are work arounds possible and too many to discuss without knowing a lot more about your setup and the DVD.

Cant open old photos!

I have a number of old photos from the system 7-9.x days that for some reason cannot be opened in Mountain Lion in Preview. Is there a way around this, or ws this my mistake that I made in not keeping a older OS 8.x Mac around? I also have some old palm Desktop files that I cannot open and I would like to retrview the TEXT in the documents. Anyone know of a way?

What was the file format of the photos? There might be something that can open them.
There are some online file converters, you might google for something like that and see if they can convert them to something openable.
To get the text, you might just right-click on the file and choose open with, Other...
Browse for TextEdit and see if you can retriev the text out of the file.

Need PCD filter or converter to open old photo disc files

Is there a filter or file converter to open old files from photo CD's
Some files are PCD format and some files are PCT/Quickdraw
The PCD files can be converted with Apple Store's Best Image Converter XV but the resolutions seem low.
The QuickDraw (Some kind of Pict?) image can be opened in Preview but only exported as a pdf which in turn needs another conversion to jpg or tif.
Photoshop seems to have dropped support for both these formats.
Unfortunately I have a few hundred of these files.

Which version of mac os x are you using?
Which version of photoshop do you have?
The mac version of Photoshop cc 2014 stills opens a pict file i transferred over from mac os 9
iphoto should be able to import the pcds off the photo cd
If you don't have the original kodak photo cd, then you could use
pcdmagic
https://sites.google.com/site/pcdmagicsite/
or
Graphic Converter 9, which should handle both pcd and pict

Also, Photoline handles both pcd and pict files

HT201317 i have enabled photostream on my imac but only a small selection of old photos from my iphone have streamed through. How do i get all the existing photos from both my iphone and ipad onto my iMac?

I have enabled photostream on my imac but only a small selection of old photos from my iphone have streamed through. How do i get all the existing photos from both my iphone and ipad onto my iMac?

This usually happens because iCloud only keeps photo stream photos for 30 days (even though your last 1000 photos will remain on your phone until deleted). When you enabled photo stream on your Mac you only received photo stream photos from the last 30 days.
To get older photos to your Mac, create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99). The be sure you check Shared Photo Streams in iPhoto>Preferences>Photo Stream. You can then import them to your iPhoto library by opening the shared photo stream album in iPhoto, then going to Edit>Select All, Control-clicking on any of the selected photos and selecting Import.

I have all my old photos from my PC on a Maxtor external hard drive. How can I transfer them from this to my Macbook Air?

I'd like to transfer my old photos from my PC which are stored on a Maxtor external hard drive to my Macbook Air. Is there an easy way of doing this? I don't know if the Maxtor hard drive is Windows specific or if it's compatible with Mac. Anyone know?

It should be fairly simple. The Maxtor should be recognized as "read only" since it's formatted for windows. Connect it and in iPhoto select, iPhoto > File > Import to Library.. > Point to your external hd.

How can I see or transfer my old photos from my iOS 6 iPod Touch to the 'Years, Collections, Moments' in my iOS 8 iPhone 5S?

How can I see or transfer my old photos from my iOS 6 iPod Touch to the 'Years, Collections, Moments' in my iOS 8 iPhone 5S?
For example, my mom's 'Years, Collections, Moments' in her iPhone 6 has pictures from her old iPhones, even her 3GS

Greetings Yushk,
It seems you would like to transfer photos from your previous device to your iPhone 5S. I have linked to an article which may help you. You can transfer those photos to a Mac or PC, then sync them to your new device:
Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
After you import your photos from your iOS device or Saved Photos, you can use iTunes to sync them back to your device.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Do you have an external drive you can use.

I lose changes in the details when i open my photos from camera raw 7.0 to photoshop cs5, why?

I lose changes that I made with the tools in the "Details" section, just right after I open my photos from camera raw 7.0 to photoshop cs5, why? The changes that I made with the tools in the "Basic" section remain.

First, how and why are you using Camera Raw 7.0 with CS5?
ACR 7.x requires CS6 to run.
Even if that's a typo in your post and you are running CS6 instead of CS5, no one should be running ACR 7.0, but ACR 8.4 —or at the very least 7.4.
Once any given camera model is supported by a version of ACR, it will continue to be supported in all subsequent versions of ACR. Each update to ACR has unannounced, unheralded bug fixes and improvements. Running 7.0 at this point is sheer madness.
Please clarify.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

How can I import the photos from dvd or hard disk?

Hi!
How can I import/export my photos from dvd or hard disk??!

To what? Are you having trouble with a DVD made by a particular device, or a hard disk that was on a particular computer, or is still in that computer, and communicating to your computer? We don't have enough details to answer the question. Are you trying to get photos into an iPhoto certain version, Photoshop certain version, just the Finder of a certain version, or specific operating system on your Mac? We need more details. Is the DVD a standard DVD, such as is indicated on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2446 or something non-standard?

How do I change the default from CS6 to Photoshop CC when I open a photo from Bridge CC?

How do I change the default from CS6 to Photoshop CC when I open a photo from Bridge CC?

Thank you. That works when I double click a RAW image, (opens in ACR then when I open from there it goes to CC) but when I double click a jpg it goes straight to CS6. I'm hoping there is a way to change the default, but haven't found yet. I don't want to remove CS6.

Iphoto on my used mac mini will not open my photos from my new macbook air, it says to update software but there arent any available.. please help

iphoto on my used mac mini will not open my photos from my new macbook air, it says something about updating the software, but i checked and there arent any updates available... please help

Sorry for the second post..
I currently do not have an older version of iPhoto to test this on, but you might also try coping the Originals from the iPhoto Library of iPhoto 11.
To do that;
1. Right (control) click on the iPhoto Library in the Picture Folder on the MacBook Air
2. Select Show Package Content.
3. Click on the Originals Folder
4. Navigate to the disired Event or photos and copy those images to your Flash or External Drive, then copy those to the older version of iPhoto.
Beware do not move, add or delete anything in the iPhoto Library, Apple has intensionally hidden it in later versions to prevent people from messing things up.

Upgrading new phone...want old photos from old one.

I just recieved my new phone today. I still have some photos on my old phone that I would like to save. I need to buy a mico Sd but I will be unable to get to the store for the next few days.
Can I activate my new phone and still get the old photos from my old phone later?

Yes - the phone does not need to be activated to save the photos to an SD card. It just needs to have enough battery charge to turn it on, and browse to and save the pics to the card.

Transferring old photos from Ipad to Imac using usb cable or local wifi?

Can anyone tell me how I transfer old photos from Ipad to Imac? These were originally on a PC (now disposed of). I can see how to transfer new photos from Camera Roll using Iphoto, but my 10 year archive with 1000s of photos appears stuck on my Ipad. I have a very slow internet connection, so I can't send them across by email and would like a solution involving the usb cable if possible.
Worryingly this question appears several times in old threads but appears to be unanswered, but I will be pleased to be referred to the right thread with all the answers - if it exists!
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

Connect the iPad (USB) to your Mac then launch the Image Capture app. It's located in your Applications folder.
You can import photos from the iPad using that application.
You can even designate where you want to the photos stored on your Mac and which app you want to use for editing from the bottom of the Image Capture window.
