View iMac photos on iPad - How?

Is there any way to view photos residing on an iMac HD (not in iPhoto, but I could put them there, if necessary) using my iPad? (OSX10.9.5, iOS 8.1.3).  I would be using a local wireless network.  I don't want to edit the photos, just view them.
Thank you.
Frank

Thank you for your reply.  As I don't currently use PhotoStream (though I could), I found another solution - an app called 'AirPhotoServer'  It comes with a companion Mac app that sets up a local network photo server to view any/all photos in a users Photos folder - not just in iPhoto.  It works well and has solved my problem.  Thank you again for your reply - your method is one I will try if I ever start using PhotoStream. Thanks.

  • View dSLR photos on iPad mini?

    How can I view dSLR photos on iPad mini?  I have a new Canon dSLR and want to be able to view photos on my iPad Mini while on an upcoming trip.  I have an Apple Camera Connection Kit that worked with my iPad2.  But with the Lightning connector replacing the 30-pin connector on the Mini, this kit no longer works.

    There is this for SDHC cards if Canon uses SDHC

    ... additionally, If the photos are in the Saved Photos album or were imported to the iPad from the CCK, you can import them onto your computer using:
    1) For mac, use iPhoto or Aperature
    2) For PC, use File Explorer or Camera Wizard.

  • Viewing uploaded photos from ipad on PC

    I want to see photos I took with my ipad mini on my laptop PC which is has windows 7.  I have download the icloud feature on it.  And I set up a beta library on my Mini ipad and think it uploaded my photos.  but I don't know what to do now to look at them.

    Hi rutabaga2,
    I understand that you have activated iCloud Photo Library beta and you wish to view your photos on your Windows PC. Here is an article that details how to view these items:
    You can also access all your photos and videos on your Mac or Windows computer, using the Photos app on iCloud.com. All your photos and videos are organized in the same way they are on your iOS devices.

  • Download imac photos to ipad

  • Editing some photos on a MacBook, I get them on the Photo Stream on my iMac. Having set "automatically import Photo Stream to Library" in preferences, I still don't get them in the iMac photo library. How can I achieve this?

    I'm editing my photos on a MacBook Air and then photostreaming. On my iMac, I get the photos in Photo Stream, where they cannot be changed. I've set the Photo Stream preferences to "automatically import to Library" - but that does not happen. How can I get these new photos into my "old" iMac photo library?

    The monthly events "Feb2014" will show you all photos that have been imported from "My Photo STream", if you have enabled "Automatic Import" in the "Preferences > iCloud" tab.
    The albums you are seeing under "iCloud" are the "Shared Photo Streams" and "My Photo Stream". To import from your "Shared Streams" drag the photos frommthe Shared Streams album to the Projects in the library panel.

  • Aperture library corrupted - have photos on iPad; how to get them back on my Mac?

    My Aperture library became corrupted after a Time Machine restore. For some reason, half the photos are missing and videos are all scrambled.
    I still have my complete Aperture library on my new iPad (in iPhoto for iOS). Does anyone know if there is a way to get the photos off my iPad and back onto my Mac so I can restore my complete library? I will never rely on a Time Capsule for Aperture backups again, learned my lesson!

    deepey,
    have you tried the usual trouble shooting after restoring your Aperture Library from Time Machine? If you invested a lot of work into your Aperture library I would try first to fix this, before giving up on it.
    If your Aperture Library is referenced you probably need to reconnect the missing masters (select the images with missing masters and select File->locate referenced file).
    If your Library is managed, the "Aperture Library First Aid Tools "(repairing permissions and repairing/rebuilding the library) may help, see Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
    Transfer from the iPad (sorry, I do not have an iPad available right now to try it, only an iPod): Do you have Photo Stream enabled? You can transfer via PhotoStream or use the sync cable - Aperture can see the iPad as a camera and import like from a camera, see: Re: Importing photos on iPad to Aperture

  • How do i view all photos on ipad that haven't been added to an album yet?

    I have over a thousand pictures on my iPad. I want to sort them into albums. But I am running into difficulties.
    (1) After adding a bunch of images to various albums, I am sure I missed a few. Is there a way to just see ONLY those pictures that have NOT yet been added to any album? Can this be done in Photos app, or do I have to buy iPhoto or something else?
    (2) Is there any app that can overlay on top of each image thumbnail a set of icons where each overlaid icon represents one of the albums that the photo is currently in?
    Thanks.

    No... the whole point of my question is that I want to organize my photos on my iPad prior to putting them on my computer. I have a lot of "dead time" on the bus/train/plane where using iPad for this would be ideal. I find it shocking that it lacks this basic capability in the built-in software.
    Surely there must be an app which can access the images I've already imported to iPad using the Camera Connection Kit, and allow me to sort them out into folders or albums. Photos app already does most of what I'd like it to do, but it does not let you filter images by which albums they don't belong to. I.e. you can't see which images aren't sorted into at least one album yet. Photos app also lacks metadata viewing/filtering/tagging/rating. Heck even my PS3 can show metadata...!
    I am constantly mystified at Apple's lack of what I would consider pretty basic features. There are some ideas, like the classic Mac GUI file/folder desktop analogy, that to me are timeless. I have yet to see the benefit or advantage to iOS's crippling lack of the ability to work with files in a logical or direct way. I do understand how letting the app itself organize its own documents into directories itself helps it keep track of files for the purposes of using CoreData to create more informative views and organizational structures. However in Unix there are abundant ways to have this cake and eat it too -- you can do what TimeMachine does, which is to create hard links to files, so any given file can simultaneously exist in multiple different folders without necessitating duplicated data. Why can't Photos app therefore let me organize my files into folders the way I want to, in a standard, Mac-like way, without disrupting its own DB, simply by usig hard links or symbolic links, or something like this? Why not have file system layer that refers to each file by a UUID instead of by a directory path?
    I am so tired of the gimped file system of iOS. First they said it was for security on iPhone. But then when iPad came out and it was the same way, then the excuse changes to, "People just like it better this way, and so should you." Wait, so 1984-2007 didn't happen...? You can't suddenly act like the Macintosh desktop analogy is suddenly an irrelevant bad idea. Just because people suffer through the lameness that is iTunes File Sharing, doesn't mean they universally would like it better if they could just access their files right in the Finder instead of through a kludge-funnel.

  • How to view dvr cameras on iPad, How to view dvr cameras on iPad, which need actives control to run

    How to install activex control on iPad , so that I can view the dvr cameras over safari ??

    You cannot, for the following reasons:
    ActiveX requires the Windows (95 - Win7; not Windows Mobile), the iPad uses the iOS operating system
    ActiveX requires an 80x86-compatible CPU, the iPad uses an ARM-compatible CPU (the A5)
    ActiveX requires an application to host it, there are no iPad applications the host ActiveX objects
    Also, generally speaking, modern mobile devices (phones and tablets) rarely permit installing global plug-ins or system software (the ActiveX model for plug-ins). They implement a strict security model that essentially sequesters applications from each other (with some APIs for exchanging some data between applications).
    You probably want to contact the vendor of the DVR camera or controlling software and enquire whether there's an app for iOS for viewing the video stream. Vendors of low-end systems may still only support legacy systems (some, for example, still use what is essentially MS-DOS), but vendors of modern equipment may well have an iOS application available. The relative ease of building these applications for iOS makes it a pretty straight-forward thing to do.

    How can I transfer photos from my  iMac to my iPad and not lose the ones already stored on the iPad?  When using iTunes to sync a folder from the iMac to the iPad it always removes anything previously synced.
    Help appreciated

    I've just found out the reason for this behaviour. I am syncing from a computer which is different to the one I first synced with. iTunes can't cope with this situation so deletes anything synced from another source.

    Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.

    See this article: iPad: Using the iPad Camera Connection Kit
    No, this canot be done, afaik. When your camera or card is connected, you will see the thumbnails in the camera pane, but not full size preview. So to browse your photos on the iPad you will need to import them to your camera roll. But you need not delete them from the camera or card after importing, so you might simply import selected photos to your camera roll from the camera grid and then delete them again from the camera roll after importing and browsing, without removing them from the card/camera.

  • How to view streamed photos on an iPad?

    How can I view streamed photos on my new iPad from a Macbook's iPhoto library? (A quick internet search showed PhotoGrab, has anyone used it? Or can anyone suggest something better?)

    Hi buddy,
    Normally its no problem to use an older TV as external monitor. You probably need an adapter, VGA to RCA but this is a common part and usually always been used with such older TVs they dont have a HDMI port.
    On eBay and other places you can purchase such VGA to RCA adapter. Thats everything what you need for this connection.
    After this you can switch between monitors using FN+F5 key combination. :)
