Transfer videos from iPhoto to AppleTV??

Hi Everyone,
How do I transfer videos imported into iPhoto to AppleTV? I have a Sony Cybershot that takes stills and video. When I import the media from my camera...both video and pictures transfer to iPhoto. I have a smart album created to pull all videos from my videos event. Now, how do I transfer them to AppleTV. I can do this with pictures with no problems. I just sync my picture albums to AppleTV.
Thanks in advance.
Michael

Michael,
Apple TV will only synch photos from iPhoto, not movies. In order to synch movies, you must first convert them to an Apple TV compatible format, then import them into iTunes. It is kind of a pain.
The way I do it is to copy (drag and drop) the movies into iMovie, then use the File > Share, Expert Settings option to export to Apple TV version. Then in iTunes use File > Add to Library and select the files. Once they are in iTunes, you could delete them from iPhoto and/or delete the exported file from your HD, if you are concerned about space. However I would recommend burning them to disc or something for backup.
It would sure be nice if Apple automated this more. If anyone has any shortcuts better than what I am doing would love to hear them.
Hope this helps,
Rod

  • How to transfer videos from iPhoto to iMovie '11

    I can't seem to understand how to put my videos from iphoto over to imovie.

    Hi,
    Can you say what you have tried?
    I do it this way:
    - after importing the videos into iphoto, close iphoto
    - close imovie if you have it open
    - reopen imovie
    you should see a dialog box saying imovie is generating thumbnails. Allow it to do so.
    I don't know why closing the applications, then restarting imovie works, but it may help you. 

  • Why can't I transfer video from iphoto onto an external HD?

    Can anyone tell me why I cannot transfer my iphoto video onto an external hard drive from imovie? Basically I am trying to transfer all my video from imovie onto an external hard drive to clear up space, but I cannot seem to find a way to do the video under iphoto. It let's me transfer all other video, but not the video under iphoto.

    Have you tried the Export function in iPhoto? Since there is one with choices including Quicktime, I would guess that it has to be rendered first. So, you could try that and save it to your desktop and then copy it over (or, if available, directly to the external).

  • Transferring video from iPhoto

    Can someone please tell me how to transfer video from iPhoto onto my iPod Touch? I have some video of my children that I'd like to put on my iPod, but can't figure it out. In iTunes, under Photos tab, I have selected "transfer photos from iPhoto" and the box for "include videos" is checked. Yet, not one video is showing up when I sync. Any other ideas? Thank you!

    if the video is in your iTunes library and plays fine in iTunes, try this:
    select the video in iTunes and, from the advanced menu, select +create iPod or iPhone version+.
    sync the newly created file to the device.
    does that work ?

  • Transfer of video from IPhoto

    I made a video on my Iphone 4S uploaded it to my Imac via direct connection. When I try to share the video Email it says you can not share videos in IPhoto.
    I posted it to FaceBook and it is fine. Any help with other ways to transfer would be much appreciated.
    Thanks M

    Well you can't email the video from iPhoto.
    So, export the video from iPhoto (File -> Export, set the Kind to Original) to the Finder and attach it to an email from there.
    That said, the person on the other end may not be delighte to receive a large file via Email. It can cause all sorts of problems at the other end. Most people would upload the large file somewhere and send a link so the person could download themselves.

  • How to transfer video from macbook to ipad2

    How to transfer video from macbook to ipad2

    Haryati-
    I found your question while researching another one on the same topic.  I found it hard to believe that iPad videos could not be transfered to a computer!
    I made a short video on my iPad 2.  It showed up in the Photos camera roll.
    Running iPhoto and connecting the iPad to my Mac Pro, I selected the iPad under DEVICES.  The video was at the end of the photos, I selected it and clicked on "Import Selected".  I then dragged the imported video to my desktop and it played in QuickTime Player when I double-clicked it.
    Then I tried it with Aperture.  The dragged copy appeared to play in QuickTime Player, but the screen was black.  However an Exported Version played correctly.

  • When i import movies from my iPhoto app to my iMovie app does it make a copy (thereby using double the hard disk space) or does it link to my iPhoto app? The reason i ask is i want to archive all my videos from iPhoto/iMovie. HELP!

    When i import movies from my iPhoto app to my iMovie app does it make a copy (thereby using double the hard disk space) or does it link to my iPhoto app? The reason i ask is i want to archive all my videos from iPhoto/iMovie. Do i need to archive the movies in iPhoto AND iMovie? HELP!

    Hi - I'm having the same problem with freeing up space on the HD. If I can't free space if I'm using any part of the clip, how can I split up the clips so that I can discard the part I won't use? This is crazy! I have only 4 GB of free space left!
    Also, I've tried to transfer the project file to my external HD but I keep getting an error saying I can't transfer it. I've been told this is because I don't have enough space on the HD for the transfer. I tried a similar transfer with another computer with plenty of HD space but the same error occurred. Is there a way to break up the project file into small pieces for the transfer (I'm thinking the whole movie file is just too big)?
    Thanks for any info!

    Hello folks

    from iphoto to an external HD?
    Thanks

    just move your iPhoto library to the extrnal drive being sure it is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) -
    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

  • Transfer video from ipad2 to macbook pro?

    Is there a way to transfer video from ipad2 to macbook pro?  I took some videos and would like to transfer it so I can edit it on imovie.  I'm surprised that iphoto doesn't recognize videos to transfer from ipad2 to macbook pro.   It seems like it only does it for photos.   Videos should be included. 

    Sunflower5-
    Reading your question, I made a short video on my iPad 2.  It showed up in the Photos camera roll.
