Transfer to iPhoto

WHen transferring from PC program to iPad IPhoto, all photos in group are then NOT in the order I want them.  How do I download to iPad in order I have them on PC?

The iPad photo apps order the photos differently than the analogous programs on the PC.  I think the iPad version orders the photos by the date they were taken.  To change this, you'll have to get into the EXIF info on each photo and change the dates -- which is a hassle.  This has been a recurring issue since IOS 5 came out, and I do not believe there has been a good solution yet.

  • How can I transfer my iphoto library from a Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) harddrive to a Mac OS Extended (Journaled) hard drive?

    Community,
    Every time I try to transfer my iphoto library from a Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) harddrive to a Mac OS Extended (Journaled) hard drive, I receive the attached message: "You can't copy 'iPhoto Library' because it has the same name as another ideon on the destination volume, and that volume doesn't destinguish between upper- and lowercase letters in filenames."
    My theory is, if I am able to unpackage my iphoto library, I can transfer each folder one at a time so that I can trouble shoot any "duplicates." Will this work?
    Let's say that works. How can I repackage the library so iphoto recognizes it?
    Is there a better way?
    Thank you,
    Jonathan

    Can we assume that I don't have any naming conflicts? Clearly there are or else I wouldn't get the error I'm getting.
    The error doesn't mean you have name conflicts. It means that the Finder won't take the chance that you might have them.
    You're suggesting that all I would need to do would be to use Carbon Copy Cloner to transfer the files from the case-sensative harddrive to my Extended Journaled harddrive?
    Yes. But I would just use the built-in rsync shell command. First, back up all data if you haven't already done so. Launch the Terminal application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the Terminal window, then press the space bar:
    rsync -aE --delete
    Now drag the iPhoto library you want to copy into the window. You should have something like this:
    rsync -aE --delete /Users/you/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library
    Drag the Pictures folder on the destination volume into the window. Now you have this (line will wrap on the page):
    rsync -aE --delete /Users/you/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library /Volumes/something/Users/you/Pictures
    Press return. The copying operation will start. When it finishes, you'll see a new dollar-sign ("$") prompt below what you entered. If there were no errors, you're done.

  • HT4889 How can I transfer my iPhoto photos and iTunes library to my new iMac?

    How can I transfer my iPhoto photos and iTunes library to my new iMac?

    If the Migration Assistant won't do it, move them over as you would any other folder; they're located in the Pictures and Music folders of your home folder by default. The iPhoto library needs to be transferred via a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended or through an AFP network share.

  • How do I transfer my iPhoto library from my old Mac Book to my new Mac Book Pro?

    I took delivery of my new mac Book Pro at the weekend and was unable to transfer all my data from my old machine at the time of set-up. Can someone tell me how I can transfer my iPhoto library to my new machine while keeping all photos in the events categories I have?
    thanks

    Quit iPhoto if open.
    Open your Pictures folder and select the iPhoto Library.
    Copy the iPhoto Library folder or package to your new computer.

  • How can i transfer a iphoto book created on one mac to another mac.

    how can i transfer an iphoto book created on one mac to another mac. i am aware of pdf saving but it doesn't help! need to see the iphoto book on other mac.
    and how can i view in slide-show double pages instead of single pages?
    anybody has an idea?

    Stephan:
    If you want to be able to view the book with iPhoto on the other Mac you'll have to copy the library containing the book to the other Mac. You won't be able to import that book into the other library.
    Make a duplicate copy of the library containing the book and rename the folder "Book Library". Open it with iPhoto and delete all of the files that are not in the book. Then copy the Book Library folder to the other Mac and open. You can also burn the Book Library folder to a CD as a way to archive the book in case you decide to order another copy at a later date. I create a separate library for each book I create and order and archive it to CD when I've ordered.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • What is the best way to transfer my iphoto library from old imac to new imac. both have iphoto 9.2.1

    What is the best way to transfer my iphoto library from current imac to my new imac.  Both imacs have iphoto 9.2.1
    os on old imac is 10.6.8.   os on new imac is 10.7.2.   I want the albums  and events to stay intact.  I have 4500 photos and 79 videos. 14.9 gb. looking for some advice here. Thanks so much.

    Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) 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.

  • I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto?

    I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto? Even if there are duplicates, I'd like to make sure I get all the photos from my phone into iphoto.  Thanks

    To see all the photos on the phone, including photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, deselect the "Hide Photos Already Imported" checkbox. If the camera contains photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, those photos are hidden by default.

  • Can i transfer my iPhoto file from old mac to new mac using iCloud?

    I got a new mac and want transfer my Iphotos to my new mac using icloud.  Is this possible?  How?  I registered both computers with Icloud. 

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately you can't use iCloud for this.
    You can do this over a network, using an external HD, USB memory stick or DVD.

  • I want to transfer my iPhoto from my old MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Pro. I have a firewire or I could also do it from my TimeCapsule. Would one be a better method than the other?

    I want to transfer my iPhoto from my old MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Pro. I have a firewire or I could also do it from my TimeCapsule. Would one be a better method than the other?

    Hi brotherbrown,
    A direct FireWire transfer (especially if it's 800 to 800) is going to be the fastest method. TimeCapsule would work, if you connect to it via Ethernet, via wireless it would be quite slow (especially if you have a large library).

  • How do i transfer my iphoto events to an external hard drive and have the pictures remain within their original events?

    How do i transfer my iphoto events to an external hard drive and have the pictures remain within their original events? Every time i try it splits up all of my pictures one by one. You'd think you'd be able to just drag and drop the event, but no such luck. Help!!

    What version of iPhtoo do you have?
    To export the photos in an event use the file menu == export command - see the user tip on exporting for the available options
    TO use your iPhoto library on 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

  • Is it possible to transfer my iPhoto library to an external Hard Drive?

    I have noticed that my fairly new iMac computer's hard drive is almost completely full.
    Is it possible to transfer my iPhoto library to an external hard drive (that I have plugged constantly into my iMac computer), and still have full functionality of all parts of iPhoto e.g. Faces, etc.?

    Hey TD,
    After much reading in these posts and others you seem to be the guru on this topic. I recently bought a 1tb buffalo link station pro NAS (Network Attached Storage) drive that I copied my iphoto library to as described in previous post. I was then able to tell iphoto where the new library was, however when iphoto opens where the pic thumbnails should be are little dotted line boxes and when I scroll the mouse the pics then show up (instead of the dotted boxes) but then they slowly disappear back to dotted boxes. However if I double click on a dotted box the pic comes up normal in screen view.........any thoughts on why the dotted boxes and can't view the pics as thumbnails

  • HT201413 I keep getting error-36 when I try and transfer my iPhoto library to my hard drive. Can anyone help me please.

    When I try and transfer my iphoto library from my computer to my harddrive, I keep getting error message "error-36". Can anyone help me please?

    Odd, it seems.  In the Finder "Get Info" display, you are seeing something like this?
    Click the "Details" triangle and then the little padlock, and you should be able to change the permissions.  Click the lock when you are done and close the Info window.

  • HT201302 Can I transfer my iPhoto journal to my new ipad?

    How can I transfer my iPhoto journals from my old ipad to my new one ?

    Try the following to jumpstart the photo streams:
    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • How do I transfer my iPhoto library from iPhone to my new computer?

    How do I transfer my iPhoto library from iPhone to my computer?
    My photos that I lost from my computer at the weekend are still on my iphone but I don't want to lose them and would like them back on my computer.
    Help very welcome.

    The photo sync is one way only - computer to iphone.
    Copy them from your backup copy of your computer.
    When pics are synced to iphone they are reduced in size/quality.  You can e-mail them to yourself, but they will never be of the original quality.

  • How do i transfer existing iphoto albums to a new computer

    how do i transfer existing iphoto albums to a new computer?
    thanks

    Are you asking about transfering iPhoto Libraries from one Mac to another Mac? Or about transferring iPhoto albums from an IOS device to a computer? And what is your iPhoto version?
    If you are talking about your Mac, simply transfer the iPhoto Library to the new computer. You can copy it using the network, by copying to a portable disk, or by connecting your old mac to the new mac in target disk mode. After copying the iPhoto Library to your Home folder on the new mac, double click it to open it in iPhoto and to point iPhoto to it.
    If you are asking about transfering albums from an IOS device; the albums you create on your IOS device are not synced back to your computer. You share the photos by adding them to the Photo Stream, creating shared Photo streams, sending them by email, or publishing web journals.
    Regards

  • How do I merge or transfer an iPhoto library on my macbook to my iPhoto library on my mac mini

    I have a MacBook Air which I take with me when I travel and I regularly import the photos and videos from my cameras into iPhoto on my MacBook Air while traveling.
    When I return home, I want to merge or transfer the iPhoto content from my "traveling" MacBook Air to my "home base" Mac Mini Server, which is my "main" storage point for all my content.
    How do I do this? 

    the only way to merge iPhoto libraries (and a very helpful tool for managing multiple libraries) is iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -
