PIcttures and photos from a PC

Is there any way to unlock photos and documents that came from a PC via External hard drive to a macbook?  I have several files that are "locked" and I can go individually to each file and allow myself permission...but I have a lot of files and would like allow them all at the same time.  Please Help!

Not completely sure this will work, but try this:
Move photo files to a temp folder if they are not already in a folder by themselves.
Do a Get Info for that folder.
Unlock folder by clicking on lock icon at bottom right of Get Info Dialog.
Enter administrator password when asked.
Change Sharing & Permissions as desired.
Click on Gear Icon and select Apply to enclosed items.
Click on lock icon to relock folder.
Did that work?

  • How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read below that you can't. Really? Is that correct?

    How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read that you can't. Really? Is that true?

    You can delete photo stream photos from iCloud by just deleting them on your iPod.  My photo stream photos are automatically deleted from iCloud after 30 days anyway.  Just so you are aware, deleting photo stream photos doesn't free up any space in your account as they don't use your personal iCloud account storage.
    You can't delete music from iCloud because the music isn't stored in your account; it's stored in the iTunes store.  What you are seeing are links to your previously purchased music in the iTuens store, allowing you to redownload them if you want to.  You can't remove anything from your list of previous purchases.  If you don't want to see these "iTunes in the Cloud" purchases in your song list, go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and turn off Music under Show All.  LIke photo stream photos, this music doesn't use any of your personal iCloud account storage.

    I don't see an issue, but if you mean why didn't you get most of your memory back you need to see what else is using storage. Go to Settings/General/Usage. Wait a bit for it to calculate storage allocation, then when it finishes you can see how much storage each app uses.

  • How can I get music (not purchased from iTunes) and photos from my iPad onto my MacBook?

    I just recently had my hard drive replaced and lost all of my music and photos from it. I have all of my music and photos backed up onto my iPad and iPhone via iCloud.
    I was able to download all of my purchased music from iTunes, back onto my MacBook. The problem is, how do I get the other music and photos from my iPad, back onto my MacBook?

    Is there any possible way to backup music that I did not purchase from iTunes on to iCloud?
    No.
    ... if I happened to break my iPad, or if something happened to my Laptop.
    If you like your music library, back up your laptop.
    If you lose or break your iPad, you can sync your iTunes music library to a brand new one. You will lose nothing.
    If you lose your laptop, or it crashes, or becomes virus-infested, you can restore your iTunes music library from your backup. You will lose nothing. Without a backup though, your music resides only on the iPad, and extracting it will require the assistance of third party (paid) utilities. Worse, there is no guarantee they will continue to function after some future iOS upgrade, since the iPad is not designed to work that way.
    There are dozens of questions every day from people who lost their iTunes music when their laptop crashed. Your laptop will crash - it's only a question of when.

  • How do I transfer contacts and photos from my IPhone 5 (version 7.1.2) to my computer (Windows 8.1)?

    How do I transfer, move, back up, upload or whatever the correct terminology is, my contacts and photos from my IPhone 5 to my Windows computer?

    You can transfer photos in several different ways:
    via USB cord: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    via Photo Stream: iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
    via a number of 3rd party apps such as http://www.photosync-app.com
    You can transfer contacts via:
    iCloud: https://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
    iTunes sync: iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    and there may also be 3rd party apps.
    Note that you can also backup to iCloud or to a computer, but that is only designed to be used for a restore back to the phone and you won't see usable photos or contacts on the computer.

  • I want to move a PSE 5 catalog and photos from an old Dell Dimension desktop to already installed PSE 13 on a new Dell XPS. Can it be done?

    I want to move a PSE 5 catalog and photos from an old Dell Dimension desktop to already installed PSE 13 on a new Dell XPS8700. Can it be done? If so, how? Link to any clear cut instructions?

    Hi,
    You can visit Common catalog upgrade issues | Organizer | Elements 6 or later and see if it works.
    You can also visit Converting a catalog from previous versions | Learn Photoshop Elements 11 | Adobe TV  for visual help.

  • I made an iMovie, 6.0.3 using music from iTunes and photos from the Internet. It looked fine on iMovie, but when I uploaded it to youtube,some of the photo near the beginning was corrupted.What steps should I take to export iMovie for youtube?

    I made an iMovie, 6.0.3 using music from iTunes and photos from the Internet. It looked fine on iMovie, but when I uploaded it to youtube, some of the photo near the beginning were corrupted on youtube. I tried a different photo, and the corruption took place at the same moment of the video. How do I prepare the video for export to get it ready for youtube? I wasn't sure whether to clik web or web streaming. Am I supposed to clik Quick Time after I clik Share?

    I unfortunately cannot remember where I got the 'trrndlines' plugin... I assume that it must have been from CFX (as it is located under /Users/Dom/Library/iMovie/Plug-ins/cfx/XXXtrrndlines.bundle).
    As for what it does, I also do not know, as I do not think I ever used it in my previous video projects.
    At this stage, I think I just need to uninstall it so that iMovie doesnt try to use it.
    Do you know how to uninstall a CFX plugin in iMovie?
    NOTE: I have re-installed iMovie 6.0.4 (instead of iMovie 6.0.3), but still encounter the same issue.

  • I have a new iMac - how do file share my music and photos from my old mac to my new mac?

    I want to transfer my music and photos from one Mac to another - but I don't want to transfer anything else - what is the best way to do this?
    Thanks

    the simplest way would be to connect the two Macs with a firewire cable, boot the source Mac in Target Disk Mode, and copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder) from /users//music on the source to /users//music on the target (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).
    do the same with your iPhoto library. see this support article for more information (except, you won't have to option-launch iPhoto)

  • Why is my Mac storing graphics and photos from the web in iPhoto?

    How can I prevent my Mac from downloading graphics and photos from the web?   How do I remove the thousands of images that the Mac moved into iPhoto when I browse the web? 

    This has been reported a few time with no definitive cause. It probably is caused by dragging things to iPhoto. Best solution is to load the back up from just before it occurred. Otherwise you neen to use iPhoto to delete them emptying the iPhoto trash every 100 or so

    my wife just got the new macbook air. What cable do I need to copy music and photos from my 2007 macbook to the new macbook air?

    Try doing it without a cable!
    Use AirDrop, described here:

    UPDATE - Oh, sorry, I see the article points out the MacBook is too old for AirDrop.

    No, there are no gurantees. The capabilitty exists to retrive deleted data from an iPhone, but like many things in life it is not 100% successful all the time. Be careful, there are a lot of scam artists out there. They take your money & retrive nothing. This guy is one of the best in the business, but he does not work for people in the private sector. Perhaps he can recommend a service to you. But, as already pointed out, you're looking at thousands of dollars out of pocket whether these folks are successful or not:

  • Transfering calendar and photos from on iPad to another iPad

    Need to transfer calendar and photos from one iPad to another iPad.  I backed up the original iPad 2 to my PC using my iTunes account but when I restored the backup from my PC onto the new iPad 2, the calendar and photos where not transferred.

    If you haven't already set up iCloud on the iPads and turn it on to sync Calendars.
    Copy your photos from one iPad to the computer and sync them to the other iPad.
