What are the best ways to share photos from iPhoto?

What are the best ways to share photos from iPhoto?

If you use Adobe Photoshop, or even Adobe Photoshop Elements, stay as far away from iPhoto as possible.
iPhoto does not play nice with Adobe software or with software from any other third party developer.
iPhoto will hide your image files in a library paradigm where you have no access to them other than through iPhoto.

What's the best way to export Photos from Aperture to iPhoto

Hi,
so heres the deal:
My father has a really old/slow mac and whenever he tries to export more than like 3 photos from aperture the computer freezes.
So to get his photos i thaught i could just copy his aperture library onto my external hd.
but will i be able to import the photos into iphoto? and i'd like to not have the originals but the edited photos.
or will i have to export the photos from aperture (e.g. with my brothers, faster mac...)

Paul, do your father and you have compatible versions of iPhoto and Aperture? Aperture 3.3 and iPhoto 9.3 or later?
Aperture 3.3: Using a unified photo library with iPhoto and Aperture
With the new, unified library architecture you can simply open an Aperture library in iPhoto - no need to import anything.
If the Aperture library is not compatible, from an older Aperture version, you can try to export the versions on your brother's mac (file > Export > Versions).
My father has a really old/slow mac and whenever he tries to export more than like 3 photos from aperture the computer freezes.
That is not normal, however old the mac is.
Either his hard drive is too full and needs freeing disk space, or he has imported corrupted images, or his Aperture library needs repairing or rebuilding. He should try to repair his library, if he has used "force quit" on Aperture. See: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual

What's the best way to share footage from FCPX with an Editor still on FCP7?

I have a lot of footage that I've been organizing & logging in FCPX. But soon I'm handing the footage off to an editor that works mainly in FCP7.
Yes, I'm aware of the plugins 7toX and Xto7 that we should have, respectively, to share XML files. That way I can send them xmls for a rough cut.
But first, I want to share the raw footage with them in a way that'll ensure that the plug-ins work, etc.
Any thoughts/recommendations? Greatly appreciated.

I'm sure you know that the same plug-ins that work on FCP7 won't work in X and vice versa. So' Im not sure what you're trying to achieve by first sharing the raw footage.
Depending on the codec, the raw footage may or may not work in both. Or to ut it another way, X may be able to work natively with clips that require transcoding to Pro Res in 7.
At the end of the day, unless you are OK collaborating with flattened files, I imagine the third party XML solutions will be your friend.

What's the best way to share photos?

Now that MobileMe Gallery is gone, what's the best way to share photos over the internet?
Is there some simple method where I can upload an entire album from iPhoto and then send a link to others so they can view them?
I've tried both Flickr and Shutterfly and did not like either.

Why can't iPhoto just pull the images from a media browser or something over the network?
I don't know. Part of the issue has to be that iPhoto is not a HD browser. Another part is what you mean by " ... just pull the images".
Any tips on creating a locally hosted web gallery?
My greatest single tip of all time: try it! The tools available to use for just a few hundred dollars are astoundingly powerful.
Or... does anyone have any Automator magic they'd like to share?
No need. Web galleries are built into Aperture 3. Put the images you want to be in the gallery in one Album (Smart or otherwise). Select all the images. Click "New→Web Page". Select a theme. Change some of the text. Make some other changes. Click "Export Web Pages ... ". Make some more decisions. Give the folder a name. Save it somewhere with access to those whom you wish to see it. Select "Tell me when done". Check your email (have a coffee). Click "Show in Finder". Open the folder. Double-click the file "index.html". Brilliant! Enjoy.
The trick to sharing this is to make the folder available. The index file will always open the web site pages in a web browser.

What is the best way to transfer photos from old laptop to new laptop?

What is the best way to transfer photos from old Macbook Pro to new Macbook Pro?

If you only need to transfer photos, connect the two Macs to the same network. Enable file sharing on both, and copy the iPhoto folder from your old Mac to the new one. Put it in your Pictures folder. This assumes you have no photos on your new MacBook Pro you wish to keep. If you do then let me know.
The first time you launch the new version of iPhoto with a Library created by an older version, it will most likely want to "upgrade your iPhoto Library". This is normal.

How can I export photos from Aperture with a new sequence and ignore the embedded JPEG number? Have tried renumbering to no avail.

How can I export photos from APERTURE with a new sequence and ignore the embedded JPEG number? Have tried renumbering to no avail.
has anyone resolved this issue?
This is now the second big Problem with using Apple's Appeture with NO apparent FIX...
Aperture has NO DIRECT way to Burn to a CD/DVD & apparently NO way to RE-SEQUENCE the numbering system????
ANYONE... I wish APPLE would address/fix these 2 problems... LIGHTROOM I guess is next?

Hi David,
Coming in and whining loudly is rude. We are all volunteers here, voluntarily sharing our expertise so that users like you can make the most of their time with Aperture. Speaking just for myself: although I do care about your success with software (it's why I'm here), I don't care what software you use. If you want to use Lightroom, do so, and post your questions in an appropriate forum.
Burning files to a CD is a file operation done at the system level (it is built into OS X). Aperture lets your create sharable image-format files from your Images. You then use OS X's tools to burn those files to a CD. Iirc, you can set up a "Burn Folder" in Finder, into which you can export files created from your Images, and with a single click burn your CD.
Naming the files you create by exporting your Images can be tricky. There are _many_ possibilities. Some things can't be done. Sequencing can be done in a number of ways (see Léonie's answer above). What have you tried? What was the result? In what way did this differ from what you expected?

HT3819 what is the best way to share music from my home computers with sonos?

I've always been partial to Numark and Audio-Technica. Have several DJ friends and a client who runs a DJ business, and they use Audio-Technica stuff almost exclusively.
You may be surprised at how easy it is...
With the exception of cameras (webcams especially) Macs are pretty much "Plug &Play" with anything USB, and even though I've never used one, reviews say you just plug the turntable in and it reads as a drive.

The best way to import photos from Picasa to iPhoto

Hi,
Many of my friends share their pictures online using picasa. Sometimes, I'd like to copy these pictures to keep a backup offline. As a software, I use iPhoto; not picasa. What is the best way to import pictures from picasa to iPhoto?
I first tried to subscribe to the RSS feed using iPhoto and then copy the pictures from there to my library, but then the dates of the pictures are set wrong: instead of indicating when the picture was shot, it indicates some other date (I guess it indicates the date when the picture was uploaded to picasa).
Then I decided to install the software picasa.app. From the webalbum of my friends, I could download the pictures directly to picasa.app. Then I exported them to the desktop, and from there imported them to iPhoto. The dates where set correctly, but I lost all the titles and comments of the pictures.
Do you have any method to download the pictures while keeping both the dates and the titles correctly?
Thanx!

There is a direct option in Organizer which lets you import from iPhoto. This is under Import dropdown menu in left panel.
If you are importing from iPhoto'09, your Tags, Albums Events, captions, star rating would also get imported apart from your media. This works differently for iPhoto'011 where you can get only the media to the Organizer,
Just a couple of things to know:
1. If in iPhoto preferences, you have chosen to create copies of your photos in iPhoto library and your library hence refers to the media store inside the library package, then on importing from iPhoto, Organizer would create copies of all those media under your pictures folder. That means, it would not corrupt your iPhoto package or modify it in any way.
2. However, if in iPhoto, you are organizing by using references to original location on your Hard drive i.e. you are not creating copies of media in iPhoto library then on importing from iPhoto to Organizer, the Organizer would also use the same references and would not create copies of the media.
Hope that helps!

What is the best way to aggregate photos from multiple family users into a single iCloud photo library?

My wife and I currently have a iPhone and iPad each.
We share my apple ID account for apps and I also use this as my main icloud account on my devices.
My wifes devices have a different main icloud account.
We also have a iMac with separate users configures, which are tied to our individual icloud accounts.
Now that OSX photos has been released we want to make use of it including icloud photo library.
We take photos. Lots of them.
And we want the photos from all our devices to be aggregated automatically into a single osx photos/iCloud photo library.
1 - because we want a single library which includes all our photos from the last 15 yrs
2 - because we don't want to pay twice for storage
Seems to me there are two options - but I would be happy to hear any others.
1) The family sharing route
This seems to be the official solution, but it has major limitations.
Set up family sharing. I'll be the organiser since its my apple id thats used for app purchases already
Add my wife to the family
Ah... but now she has to manually share every photo or moment from he device
And it seems that these moments are not incorporated into the photos database in same way as the icloud library account users (me) are
2) Family iCloud account
I didn't test it yet, but no reason that I can see why it should not work
Create a new icloud account for the family
Make this family account the primary icloud account on all devices (could be a big disruption for icloud enabled apps)
Add our personal apple ids as mail/contact/calendar account
Make a new user on OSX for photos which has the family icloud account configured
No all devices should share the same photo library
Unfortunately:
We lose bookmark, keychain, etc sync between devices and osx accounts
We lose imessage (maybe).
We lose the new ios8/yosemite features like handoff
Or worse we get crazy imessage/handoff between all devices from all accounts
Both methods have major downsides.
Anyone know of a better way?
Why doesnt apple allow multiple separate icloud accounts to be configured and select which features each can use (where some features may have to be unique to a single account). To me this would seem to be the best option...

What is the best way to import photos from an Android phone?

Hi. I'm running Adobe Photoshop Lightroom v. 4.3 to edit and organize my photos. So, after having shot a few photos with my camera - a Samsung Galaxy s4 - I will plug my S4 to my PC (USB), open APL, click "import" and start going, as I always do with my DLS. However, on the import page there will appear all sorts of stuff, not only my recently taken photos named Bestfit, Large, and so on, but also quite a lot of photos I could swear I never have taken, some of them looking like screenshots of some sort. Obviously, this isn't how things should be. So my question is, a) how do I get rid of all those pictures that of some reason seemed to already be on my camera, and b) what should I do to see only one version (the best) of those recently taken? Should I start using a third-party program? In case, which?
As this was the case also with my former HTC Desire, I suppose this is may be an Android case, but on the other hand, I guess several of you may have encountered this.
Thanks in advance.
Ole K

I had the same problem. To prevent that, I change the import source from the default source that's already selected under "Devices" on the left panel, to the source lower in that same panel, under "Files" where you will see the Windows drive letter that the Android's storage was mounted under, expand that, expand the DCIM folder, and then select Camera. So mine is typically F:\DCIM\Camera. If you have a Mac, I have no idea how the import screen presents files vs devices, but I suspect you'll find it there too.
Sometimes I find that Windows takes a little while to list the Files drive letters, even though it already lists the Android under Devices. If you don't see anything but your computer's normal drive letters, try canceling the import, waiting a few seconds, and then clicking import again. That usually enough time for it to finish mounting/recognizing. I think this is a Windows process, not a Lightroom one, as the drive letters aren't fully accessible in Windows Exporer immediately either.

What is the best way to transfer libraries from Aperture?

Hi,
Apologies for what must be an increasingly common question. I've searched the forum but all I could get were returns from early 2013 and previous. I am asking this question because the offered tool on this site has an appalling rating after 37 reviews so I will not be using that.
Any "quick fix" tool recommendations would be appreciated, tools which have been proven to work well. Also, in regard to losing saved edits which were made in Aperture (I understand they will be transferred as finalised Jpegs), I'm not overly concerned with this since I am at a place where I have finalised most, if not all, my photos which deserved the attention anyway, so even a quick way for me to get the actual files from the folder structure may be helpful, so I can import afresh?
Any other suggestions very welcome, and thank you.

If you can get it to work, most folks should use the Adobe Plugin. Although the manual method is good, especially if you tag data beforehand, you have the ability to transfer more information, more automatically, with the plugin. For example, stacks can be transferred. Adobe says Faces should work, but that piece still has bugs.
Most importantly, the plugin will allow you to copy both masters and previews (at the ore-specified, generated resolution). The manual method makes combining these difficult two, especially stacking the two.
