What is the simplest way to automatically move all photos from iPhone to MacOS but not from MacOS to iPhone?

I just want my phone photos to go to my desktop, but I don't want the desktop photos to go to the phone. What is the easiest setup?
Thx

They won't.
Make sure you are signed into iCloud with Photo Stream enabled on both OS X & iOS.
OS X: System Preferences > iCloud > check Photos > Options > check My Photo Stream (Shared too if you choose) > OK
iOS: Settings > iCloud > Photos > My Photo Stream - on (Shared too if you choose)
In iPhoto > Preferences > iCloud > check My Photo Stream (and Photo Sharing if you choose) then check Automatic Import. Leave Automatic Upload unchecked.

I want to load movies in to my iPad through itune in my pc that runs window XP. First of all I am not able to add the movies to the itune ,leave aside sync to iPad .can some one suggest what is the simplest way to load movies in my iPad.

I have plenty of DVD which I load in my laptop and watch the movies while travel, however I am not able to do that in my iPad .
I would appreciate some one guide me the simplest way of loading the movies in to my iPad. I tried the conventional procedure of loading/copying in to itune then sync to the iPad to load all movies in it, but failed to do the first step( not able to load /copy in itune) leave aside the sync to iPad next.
Do I need to sellout some 20 odd $ to buy a conversion software that would help?
Is it that Apple trying to make money by not making this simplest of thing possible by the user.( ref. windows, every thing is possible with little IQ of the user).
If it is so , I would stop many of my friends to restrain from buying a device like this by spending some 1000$ ,rather look at a good Droid that is catching up so well.

If you are the only user on your computer you probably don't have multiple user accounts set up and can disregard that. If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar. Now see if your iPad appears under Devices on the left side when you connect it. If it does, click on the name of your iPad on the left side and your iTunes sync settings options will appear in folders with tabbed headings to the right.
If it doesn't appear on the left side, follow the troubleshooting steps shown in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.

What is the simplest way to make a movie from BufferedImages?

I have a 3d rendered animation from which I can grab BufferedImages of each frame. What is the simplest way I can create a movie from these images?
I've seen the JpegImagesToMovie.java file and not only is it suprisingly overcomplicated, it requires me to change the code so that I can get images from memory rather than from files.
Is there some simple way of creating a movie which requires a few statements? I'm also prepared to use QuickTime for Java. I don't care about the format, since I can just use any video converter to convert it to my desired video format.

I recently came up with a simplified JpegImagesToMovie program. It generates QuickTime movies with a single video track output as a file. Input is a series of jpegs (currently as a list of file names, but easily modified to a take any form of jpeg data.) Since the compression used by the movie is JPEG, if you have an uncompressed image buffer, you'll need to convert that into jpeg data bytes with some quality setting. (Since its a movie file, go with something low if you have a lot of similar images.) This will even run without a full install of jmf--no native code is called (as far as I could tell..)
Here is the source code, sorry about the formatting!

* This program takes a list of JPEG image files and converts them into a

* This was based on Sun's JMF Sample Code JpegImagesToMovie.java 1.3 01/03/13
* This code is an attempt to reduce the complexity to demonstrate a very basic

* stubs, use google. You'll need PermissionID.java and PolicyEngine.java.)
* I tried to get it to generate AVI files without success.
* These output files are could use further compression.
* A Vector of jpeg image paths was one way to do this--the appropriate

There is no automatic way to generate XML documents from an arbitary set of relational tables using the information contained in an XML Schema. Typically the easiest way to generate XML from relational data is to use the SQL/XML operators (XMLElement, XMLAGG, XMLAttribtues, XMLForest). There are many examples of using these operators in the forums You can validate the generated XML against the XML Schema by registering the XML Schema with XML DB and then using the XMLType.SchemaValidate() method

What is the simplest way to remove duplicates on both iMac and iPad2?

What is the simplest way to remove duplicate photos from both iMac & iPad2?

The implication here is that your music is only on the iPod, for if it is in iTunes, you need only do the restore. So you are really asking how you move the music from your iPod back into iTunes, so that when you restore it will go back to the iPod. Take a look at Para. 8 in this summary post I worked up.

What is the simplest way to get video from mini DV tapes into computer

My computer has no firewire connection. What is the simplest way to get the video from my camera (JVC GR-D340EK) ?

Mikeathome
Thanks for the reply.
The reason that I asked if this was a one time thing or not was related to my thoughts about asking you to look at the relative costs of have the DV data capture firewire done professional or by a friend versus going through looking for slots on your computer for a firewire card or purchasing a computer that still comes with a firewire port.
We will be watching for further developments.
Thanks.

What is the simplest way to create slide show

What is the simplest way to create a slide show ? (Premiere Elements 12)

saploe
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? Premiere Elements 12 Mac does not have a Slideshow option in its Elements Organizer 12. So, that situation would not yield the two choices of creating the slideshow in the Elements Organizer and taking it into Premiere Elements OR doing the whole project solely in Premiere Elements.
What is going into this slideshow....photos (how many, original pixel dimensions), videos (formats and duration), etc?
What is a description of your computer resources?
How do you intent to export this slideshow...
a. burn to DVD-VIDEO standard or widescreen on DVD disc
b. burn to AVCHD format on DVD disc
c. burn to Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc
d. to file saved to the computer hard drive?
We will customize a reply based on the information that you supply.

What's the best way to transfer 11,000 photo's from my old mac to my new one?

What's the best way to transfer 11,000 photo's on iphoto to iphoto on my new mac. I've just spent 24 hours importing them onlu for it to say there is not enough space available - BUT I'VE JUST BOUGHT AN NEW UPGRADED MAC?

Don't import them.
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

Note - that no internet backup service has been proven to be safe and effective for backing up the iPhoto library - unless you personally have backup uyp an iPhoto library and restored it sucussfuly form one it should not be recommended - a large number of people have lost their photos trying it

I can print from my iPad 3 but not from my new iPad mini which has a lower spec. What should I do?

Question. Why can I print from my iPad 3 but not from my new iPad mini which has a lower spec?

The "lower specs" have nothing to do at all with why you cannot print. Are you connected to the same Wi-Fi network that the printer & the iPad 3 is on?

What is the proper way to manage movies in iTunes?

I've just been given a new video iPod, and am now considering importing movies into iTunes so that I can have them on my iPod. What I have is a bunch of MPGs (e.g., family movies from a camcorder, etc.); but I noticed that the iPod won't play them, presumably because they're not MP4 format. I know I can convert them all to MP4 with iSquint or a similar utility. But I want to keep the full-resolution versions in iTunes so that I can display them on a bigger screen as well. So, what is the right way to manage this - do I really need to keep and have in iTunes 2 versions of every movie - one scaled down for iPod as MP4, and one in original resolution? Or is there a better way?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

I think two versions is probably the only way. At least the MP4 versions will be small so shouldn't use up much of your hard drive space.
By the way, with the MP4 versions that go on your iPod, try hooking your iPod up to your TV set and setting the TV Out option to ON and with the proper AV cable, you should still be able to see them on the big screen. Try it out and see how it looks.
Since you have a camcorder, you might already have an AV cable you can use. See here...
