Save as in iPhoto

In Iphoto when I am changing pictures I want to save it as another file. Is there a save as funtion available

Press ⌘D to duplicate. All it does is copy and paste as a new image.

I can't save a photo from facebook directly to iPhoto. I have to put in download and move it. How do I save directly to iPhoto? This is getting frustrating.

I am trying to save directly to iPhoto from Facebook and when I click down load it goes to the downloads and opens in Preview and if I move it from there to iPhoto is still has the preview border. I did find a way to download to my documents and move it to iPhoto but I should be able to save directly to iPhoto and the right click does not give me the option to save iPhoto. Does anyone have a solution?

Right click on the photo in Safari and use the add photo to iPhoto option - if that is not there then your only choice is to save to disk and then import to iPhoto

Try to export using the "File" menu and select "Kind > Original".
Then drag the exported video file to your USB flash drive.

How do i save photos from iPhoto to jpeg

when i import photos from my camera they save in the iphoto section but how do I then save those as jpeg files so that i can upload them to emails or to kodal gallery etc.

Another easy method if you're only dealing with a small number of photos, just drag the best shots from iPhoto to the desktop. Then they're easy to find for uploads. Delete off the desktop when your done. (they're still in iPhoto).

How do I save a still that I have extracted from iMovie and save it to iPhoto?

I'm trying to save a still that I have extracted from imovie. So far, all I can see is that it can be saved in the imovie project. I need to save it to iphoto. Any help would be appreciated. I'm running Lion and have aperture too.

Imovie 11? It isn't that easy. You could navigate to the movie event, drag that into Streamclip, and use MPeg streamclip to make a still from the movie. The freeze frame isn't a photo you can get out of imovie, as far as I know.
Here is a youtube video on how to do it with iMovie 11.

Save PDF to iPhoto...?

I'm trying to save my book by printing / Save PDF to iphoto option but after it is finised by the pages it is not in the Album and on the right corner the little black gear keeps on spinning for hours and nothing happens. Any idea?

The method you're using creates a jpeg image file of each page of the book and imports it into the Album of your choosing. Is that what you want?
If you want a multi page PDF file of your book then do it as Daiya describes.
First make sure you can save it as PDF file as Daiya mentioned. If you can make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and run the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot and the option to rebuild the small thumbnails.
Click to view full size
Now try the Save PDF to iPhoto again.

How to save settings in iPhoto '11 (9.1.3)?

Hello, does everybody know how to save settings in iPhoto '11 (9.1.3)? Always when I change settings, for example when I check "Copy items to the Library", it is after new start up restored to the default. Also every start up appears "Welcome to iPhoto" and I'm not able to switch it off.

Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

How do I save websites to iPhoto?

I'm a freelance writer, including website content. I'd like to post the webpages I wrote in the portfolio section of my website (created in iWeb) as they appear online. How do I do that? I think I need to convert them to jpgs to save them to iPhoto first, right? But I don't know how to do that. I'd appreciate whatever help you can give me.

iPhoto has no ability to import Web sites and this is the first time I recall someone trying to use it for that purpose.
You could print the webite to pdf and then import the pdf to iPhoto.

After I upgrated to os x 10.8.2. Using Iphoto It doesnt save photos to iphoto from attached mails

This is a bug, see this thread:
Re: Add to iPhoto not working from Mail app
For a work-around see wales34 post in the link above:
To save a photo in an email to iPhoto make a detour to Preview:
instead of clicking "Save" photo in the email, click "Quick Look"
Expand the photo to full screen
click the icon for "Add to iPhoto".

Sorry folks, I did something bad, I was looking how to save my current iphoto library to my external drive and I hit a wrong button, lost my current iphoto and now have only the backed up version from 2007, Woops I never was the quick witted one... PLEASE

Depress the option key and launch iPhoto = use teh select library option and select the correct one
yes to move your library to an external drive
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

I am trying to save photos from iphoto to an external hard drive

Help!
I bought a "WD Elements" external hard drive to save photos and make more room on my Macbook Pro. I can't move pics from iphoto to my "WD Elements" hard drive . I've recently gone on a few vacations and have a few thousand pictures to download. I'd like to save them onto my computer and then my external hard drive, but would first like to place old pics from iphoto onto the external hard drive and I am unable to figure out how to do this. I've tried selecting pics and then dragging them into the "Elements" external device, but this is not working (a white circle with a line through it pops up, as if I am unable to do this). When I select pics and click export, a message says that it's unable to export these pics to the hard drive device.
Please help! ~Thanks!

1. What format is the external drive? It sounds like it's ina format that Macs can't write to. Is it a NAS or NTFS?
2. Easiest thing: just move your iPhoto Library to the external
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

How do I save photos from iphoto to external hd without Time Machine?

I have a seagate 320gb freeagent external hard drive and would like to know how to save my iphoto pictures on it. I cant seem to drag & drop folders from the application & Help only mentions using Time Machine which I dont particularly want to do (I had a Lacie hd connected to Time Machine & it made a very loud humming noise then I knocked it over so that was that, so now I'm starting again with the Seagate). Please could someone explain in very simple language how I can achieve this as I need to back up a couple of thousand photos to make room on my imac.
Thankyou
Sara

Sara
Use a back up utility such as DejaVu to make incremental back ups of your Library. The first time you run it it will back up the entire Library, thereafter it will keep the back up up-to-date with the changes in your Library. There are other apps that will do this job. Search on MacUpdate

How do I save journals in iPhoto App

I have the new Iphoto App for my Iphone 4s. I need to do a factory re-set on the phone. When I do that, all the apps will be gone, including the Iphoto App, (I would assume) therefore I will have to re-sync everything to my phone. When the Iphoto App deletes, my other assumption is all the journals I created in it will be gone as well. Where can I save these journals. I don't see journals listed anywhere in my Iphoto App on my Macbook.
Thanks for any help.
