Want to move iphone device from iphoto to itunes

new laptop (macbook pro) and was worked w/ Genius bar person today to move everything from my old hard drive to my new one. didn't discover until tonight that he did something so that my iphone doesn't launch itunes, it launches iphoto -- so the device only shows up in iphoto not itunes. I need to get it back to itunes so that I can manage syncing, etc. How do it get it back to itunes? thanks.

It doesn't show up in iTunes when I open iTunes manually -- and it never shows up even after a while. I went to Applications/Image Capture and under "Connecting this iPhone opens..." iPhoto was selected in the pulldown. I didn't see an option for selecting no application, but when I clicked on "other" I could select iTunes. I did that, but nothing happened and there was no way to "save" that preference. When I plugged in my iPhone again, it still didn't show up in iTunes.

I want to move my photos from iPhoto to Time Capsule to make space on my computer. What's the best means of doing this?

I want to move my photos from iPhoto to Time Capsule to make space on my computer. What's the best means of doing this?

Please do not do this.
The Time Capsule was designed for your backups.....not as an everyday hard drive. Access to the Time Capsule is slow.
If there is any loss of connection between iPhoto and the iPhoto library when you are reading or writing, the entire iPhoto library is easily corrupted.
The chances of corruption are even more likely if you are using wireless on the computer.
And....even if you decide to risk this....if you move your "original" iPhoto library to the Time Capsule.....how will you make backups of the library?
The only copy of the library will be on the Time Capsule....you have no backups.....when, not if, the Time Capsule has a problem.
Simply stated, I would never do this with any important data that you cannot afford to lose. Please post in the iPhoto support area if you need to confirm this.

If you do want an idea of how to move your iPhoto library correctly, post back and we can help.

Movies short clips from iPhoto to iTunes

I have some short movie clips in my iPhoto from my digital camera, how do I move these into iTunes to put on my iPod?

Hi.
No. iTunes is match is for music (and music videos purchased from iTunes Store) only. There is no equivalent for movies.

I want to move voice memos from iPhone to PC (not just sync to itunes)

Hi,
I want to move voice memos from my iPhone to Windows desktop. I saw several posts about syncing them to iTunes. Thats not what i want. I want to copy them to my desktop not just sync to iTunes. Unable to copy - paste from iTunes either.

impossible to do anything simple on iTunes, I managed to wipe all my recorded voice memos when I tried to move my files from iphone to desktop, instead they just "sync" I never got the point with sync, why can't you just export files and import files from desktop, simple as that why make it so complicated

Transfer movie metadata from iphoto to itunes?

Short version:
Does anyone know a good way to transfer the iPhoto metadata associated with a movie in the iPhoto Library to iTunes? IE: I want to import a movie stored in my iphoto library to itunes so I can watch it on my apple tv. But I want the description, title, and keywords that I associated with that movie when I organized it in iphoto to come over to the itunes entry for that movie as well. Any way to do that?
Long version:
So I have a bunch of movies that are organized in the iphoto library. These are movies that come in from my point-and-shoot camera, my iphone 4, and my digital SLR. I want to watch these movies on my apple TV (2nd Generation).
I know that I can option+drag these movies into itunes, and that will make them viewable on the ATV2. However, when I drag them over to itunes, none of the metadata that I added to the movies in iPhoto transfers. I'm talking about the "description", title, keyword information that I can add/edit in iPhoto. Apparently iTunes just grabs the actual filename from the movie file, but otherwise doesn't take in any metadata, and definitely doesn't take the info from the iPhoto library.
That means I have to fill in this information twice: once to organize the movies in my iPhoto Library (where the actual movie files are stored), and once to organize the movies in my iTunes library (where the movies are viewed from when using Home Sharing on ATV2. I find myself copy-pasting the description from the iPhoto interface into the description field in iTunes for each movie file, one by one. Got to be a way to automate this.
I understand that the metadata is stored in an iPhoto database somehow, and not actually written to the movie files themselves, but you would think that iTunes would be able to access the iPhoto database somehow. . .

But the description and title that you enter for a movie in iPhoto are clearly stored in some sort of iPhoto-only database, even if that metadata is not actually inserted into the movie file itself (.mov, .avi, whatever). Why can't iTunes access that database?
I would love for iTunes to be able to access iPhoto's database so that when I drag a movie from iPhoto to iTunes, the description and "title" are still applied. Instead, when I drag it over, iTunes just uses the movies file name as the title (often just some meaningless letter/number combination), and doesn't have anything in the description field. So I have to take the extra step of copy-pasting the description and title over from iphoto to itunes. Annoying.

I want to move my library from one account to another, it is also on a different computer. How can I do this?

I want to move my library from one account to another. However, when I try to sync th old account it is not syncing to my iphone or exporting out. How can I do this? Someone told me that it may be set to WiFi but it was not. My libray is sitting there but I can get it out. Mean while I have changed accounts and down loading to the iphone on my new account (and changing computers as well) How do I make this work so I can get my Library to sync to my iphone or export it from the old account. Is there anyway to move my library from one accont to another from the itunes side?
Thx Rick

Media is permanently tied to whatever account was used to purchase it. There is currently no possible way to change the account it is tied to.
Is there a reason why a new account was created?

How do I load photos & Music to my iPhone 3G from iPhoto /iTunes?

How do I load photos & Music to my iPhone 3G from iPhoto /iTunes?
If I want to use photos as wallpaper on the phone do they have to be resized or can I just load them?

With your iphone plugged into itunes go to the tables for music, photos, etc and set to sync with the album,playlist you want.
Sounds like you might need to read the owners manual:

Thanks pvonk, I will try downloanding the book from the Iphone right now.......
Just tried to download and it wants me to buy it again? Is there some way around this? I guess I thought that was the whole point of the cloud, buy it once and access from any of your devices right?
Also, I have logged into the icloud.com as suggested and will plink around there for a bit and try to understand. It is just all so dang different that what I am used to; Apple's way, that is.
Thanks again for the Icloud tip and if you know of a way to download without making a 2nd purchase I would sure love to hear it!
Geez. one other thing (I guess I am complaining) but I bought more space in the cloud, they took my cash fast enough but have not yet increase the size of my storage space yet? Is Apple sometimes slow to get internal stuff done?

I have Iphoto library in Aperture. Can I move the projects from iPhoto to aperture project by dragging?

I have Iphoto library in Apeture. Can I move the projects from iPhoto to aperture project by dragging (within the apeture program)? Is this making a duplicate of all the photos? It seems to work?? It then leaves my Iphoto library in apeture empty. I would like to do this just to reorganize the photos between the two. I feel that I may have doubles and would like all pictures of one year in same project in Aperture instead of going between both.

Tell us more, please. I am not quite sure, what you want to do and how you are using Aperture and iPhoto?
Which versions of Aperture and iPhoto are you using?
Do you have separate photo libraries for Aperture and iPhoto, or are you opening your iPhoto libraries in Aperture?
I have Iphoto library in Apeture.
Did you import an iPhoto library into Aperture? And now you are seeing a section "iPhoto Library" in the Aperture projects list in the Inspector?
Events and albums you imported from iPhoto (Import > Library > Some iPhoto Library) will be imported as Aperture projects and albums, and they will behave exactly as other Aperture projects and albums.
Can I move the projects from iPhoto to aperture project by dragging (within the aperture program)? Is this making a duplicate of all the photos? It seems to work?? It then leaves my Iphoto library in apeture empty.
You can drag images from any project in Aperture to other projects and that will move (not duplicate) the images and all its versions to that project. And when you drag all images from the project to another project, the remaining project will be empty and can be deleted. (Caution: Photos that you have hidden in iPhoto will not be visible in Aperture. If you are not sure, if you have hidden photos, open the library again in iPhoto and unhide all photos).
I feel that I may have doubles and would like all pictures of one year in same project in Aperture instead of going between both.
There should be no problem with moving all photos from the same years to the same projects. You can also drag projects in "Projects" view on top of each other. That will merge them.
You could also define smart albums in Aperture to search for images taken at a specific period of time:
File > New > Smart album:
Then, in the Smart Settings HUD, click "Add Rule" and add a Date or Calendar rule.
For example, to find all images taken in 2010, use a rule "Date > Capture Year is > 2010"
To search for Photos taken at a specific date or at several dates, use a "calendar" rule. This way, you do nat have to type the date, but can pick it from a mini calendar.

Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; devices running an iOS version prior to 5.0 can't be updated straight from the device. It will be updated to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.

I don't want to import video clips from iPhoto!

iMovie automatically imports video clips from iPhoto, and I don't need or want this to be done. I don't want to delete or move those clips from iPhoto, so is there a way to prevent the automatic transfer?

Go to your Hotmail account on the web (NOT in mail), make a new folder (or folders) for the mail you want to keep and move the messages into it.
Mail (and all other email clients) will download all messages in the inbox unless previously downloaded. That means downloaded with the client you are attaching now.
Until that is done do not setup the account in mail.
