Where are my scanned photos now that I'm in iPhoto 6?

Hey there,
Can anyone give me a clue about where my scanned photos get stored so I can find and import them? I've looked everywhere. (What happened to the ease of iPhoto just leaving them on the screen to be dragged onto the library page?)
Thanks! Ann

Ann:
What scanner are you using?
The scanner was set to scan "jpeg to iPhoto
By that do you mean it was set to save the file in a folder named iPhoto? If that's the case then that's not what you want to do. Scan photos to a folder outside of the iPhoto Library folder and then import them from that folder. Putting files directly into the iPhoto Library folder from the Finder or another application will not get them imported into iPhoto.
If that's the case look inside your Pictures/iPhoto Library folder for any jpgs in the top level of that folder and move them to the desktop. Then import them from there.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • HT201317 I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos

    I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos???

    When photos are added to the photo stream album on a device (either due to a new photo having been taken or having been synced from another device using the stream) they remain in the album.  However, the syncing process involves copying the photos to the photo stream server where they are kept for a maximum of 30 days, up to 1000 photos.  If a device is reset or the stream is turned off or turned back on again (or in your case, the device was repaired), the photos that were on the device's photo stream album are gone and the only ones to appear are those that are currently on the servers (recall the 30 day limit).
    If some of your photos are older than 30 days, then they are no longer stored on the cloud and hence are not synced down to the iphone.
    Recall, photo stream is just a syncing service, it is not designed as a storage service for photos.  Always sync photos to a computer for archiving.

    after several years of taking photos(thousands) I seem to have many duplicate photos in iPhoto. How do find them all without going through 10,000 photos? they are mostly scanned photos that I have reused over the years not ones that I have recently uploaded from my camera.
    Thanks whoever can help

    Where are you seeing these duplicates?  In the iPhoto window or in the Finder?

  • I opened iPhoto and it opened as if i just bought the computer. Where are all my photos and how do I get them back?

    I opened iPhoto and it opened as if I just bought the computer. Where are all my photos and how do I get them back? Luckily for the most part, I backed up photos on my flash drive, but I had just imported dozens of pictures from my phone. I reopen iPhoto soon after and the prompt asking how I would like to start iPhoto and all came up. I selected what brought me to the iPhoto I open up to every day only without any pictures.

    Are you in the correct account that contains the iPhoto Library?
    Did you ever move your iPhoto Library to an external drive?  If so, and you disconnect this drive, iPhoto will create a new blank one in the pictures folder.
    Check your computer to see if the "iPhoto Library" was accidently moved to the trash.
    If you still can't locate your images, launch finder, and select "all images" in the source column.  This will display all images on your computer.  Be carefull not to delete, move or modify the images you see in this manner, as it will cause issues with good iPhoto Libraries, however it may help us locate where the images are.
    Once you locate an image, click it once, then in the top menu bar, select "view / show path".  This will display it's location along the bottom of the finder window.
    Once you know where the image is, this should help you launch iPhoto to the correct library.

  • Where is the resources section now that was in this site now?

    Where is the resources section now that was in this site, which included various videos, books, tutorials or sources of them to learn about Eclipse

    Firefox 4.0 has a combined Reload, Stop, & Go button that appears at the right end of the location bar. Only one function is ever active at any one time, so combining them save UI space was a good idea. When a page is loading, it is a "Stop" button, when it finished loading, it turns into a "Reload" button, and when you start to type something into the Location bar it turns into a "Go" button.
    To restore the Firefox 3 appearance you can use these steps:
    * Open the "View > Toolbars > '''Customize'''" window or right-click a vacant area on a Toolbar, ''except fot the Bookmarks Toolbar''.
    * Then drag'n'drop the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position at the left side of the Location bar.
    # Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
    # Or "Reload - Stop" then put a flexible space in between the two to prevent the buttons from combining.
    # Set the order to "Stop - Reload" to separate them and get two distinct buttons.

  • Where are all my photos you said had been moved

    where are all my photos you said had been moved

    If you had photos in Photoshop.com when the migration happened, then an account would be created for you on Revel using the same Adobe ID unless you had already created one.
    Did you already have a Revel account when your files were migrated?  If you did not, then the photos would move to <YOUR FIRST NAME HERE>'s library. If you already had an account  with an existing library and photos, then migrated files would be moved to a library named "Photoshop.com library". To change libraries, use the menu on the upper left at adoberevel.com or go into Settings, if on an iPad or iPhone.
    Please let me know if that helps.

  • Where are all my photos stored?

    where are all my photoes stored?
    and music btw. I am cleaning my drive and need to back up

    Assuming the default setting, your photos are stored in the iPhoto Library, in your Pictures folder.
    Same assumption with iTunes: The Music folder.

  • Where are the emails you say that I have?

    I show 25 received emails. Three of which are unread, the rest have been read. In the bar at the bottom of the page It says UNREAD: 103 ; TOTAL: 106. Where are all the supposed emails that I have????

    Hello @BellasMa
    If you want to sort your emails by their read state, simply click the circle/star in the toolbar just above the message list. This will sort your messages by read/unread and you should be able to see your unread emails at the top or bottom of the list (depending on wether you choose ascending or descending sorting).
    I hope this helps.

  • Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago. 
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

  • Where are all the Photo and Music files hiding?

    When I "Get Info" for the Music folder in my Home directory it says that the folder contains 7,672 items taking up 34.87 GB of HD space. On the bottom of the iTunes window it says that iTunes includes 3,514 songs using 16.55 GB.
    Similarly, "Get Info" for the Pictures folder in my Home directory says that it includes 24,989 photo files using 28.22 GB of space. However, on the bottom of the iPhoto window it says that there are 5,574 photos in iPhoto.
    The question is, what are and where are all of these extra music files and photos?
    The numbers quoted in the applications themselves look right. I don't have 7,672 tunes and I definitely don't have 24,989 photos.
    I transfered the folders from my iMac to the Macbook Pro by connecting the iMac in Target Disk mode by Firewire. Is it possible that somehow I created many duplicate music and photo files? How do I eliminate the duplicates to free up HD space?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    What Mac do you have? MacBook?
    Version of iLIfe?
    iPhoto stores and uses a package now for the iPhoto LIbrary which if you do get info and show package contents has your files and library you imported.
    Might want to ask in iLife area too.

  • Where are my actual photos??

    Why is it I cannot actually get to the photo files like I could in previous versions?? (iPhoto 7.1.3)
    I'm a big boy and can be trusted to handle MY files the way I want to.
    Where are these stored and how can I access them WITHOUT opening iPhoto?

    Why bother do all that - all of these are faster, easier and safer.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto. With 10.5 you can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • My photostream photos dissapeared - only the last 1000 show...where are my old photos???

    Hi,
    i am totally confused and frustrated with iCloud.
    i had many many photos on my Photostream and am removing all i can from my iphone (after synchroniszing on the cloud) as i run often out of space on the phone. whatever happened, all of a sudden, i can only see the last 1000 images on my Photostream - all of the others are GONE! i havent touched nor deleted anything. on the contrary, i even upgraded my storage to 55GB to be sure i have enough space (iphone reports free 38 GB on my iCloud space). I cant find my older Photostream photos any more neither when connecting from my iphone, nor from my iPhoto and aparently they are nowhere to be found on my iCloud. WHERE are my photos??!!! it will be a huge disaster if i lost them and not sure how to start understanding paying for a reliable cloud and loosing it all? anyone any idea???

    First of all, photo stream storage is separate from regular icloud storage, so buying more space is not necessary.
    When you take a photo on a device that has photo stream turned on, that photo is added to the local photo stream group and uploads to icloud's servers, which then download the pics to other devices where they are also stored in their photo stream group.  After 30 days, the photo is deleted from the server, but not the devices.  (No more than 1000 pics are accepted, after which old ones are delete to make room for new ones.)
    If, however, you turn off photo stream on one device, the photos in the photo stream group will be deleted.  If you later turn it back on, then only photos on the server will download to the group.  Pictures that were deleted from the server due to the 30 day rule will no longer be available.
    It is advised that whenever you have photos appearing in the photo stream group, you move them to a permanent album if you wish to save them.
    In short, photo stream is a conduit for copying photos from one device/computer to another - never treat it as some kind of permanent storage service; it isn't.

    no you said
    I don't expect special treatment, and neither should anyone else.. Apple set the date for the iPhone to be there.  Feb 10 and the way Apple works it will be here on the 10th.  This has happened on EVERY release of iPhone no matter which carrier around the world.
    and
     "I am 99% positive no one will get their devices no earlier than the 9th.
    No one throughout the iPhone pre-orders no matter which version has NEVER gotten it no earlier than 1 day from the release date.  All the iPhones will be held at the distribution center regardless if it is UPS or FedEx.
    I have actually seen where a few devices ended up 2-3 days early and was sent back to the distribution center, and was delivered on release day(I have experienced that personally twice, and a few friends in the 48 states).
    Everyone should just relax and expect their phones no earlier than the 9th."

    You could try the following troubleshoot, It  should help with your problem.
    Select Menu > Applications > SW Update.
    Select "Phone apps update".
    Select Options > Start update.
    Reboot the device after the update has been installed.
    If you cannot install the update with the SW update menu. You should take the device to a Nokia Care point where they will install the seperate fix files for you.
    Before installation, check that date in device is set to ongoing day, otherwise installation may fail
    After that SIS file MdsBlackPhotosFix.sis should be installed to the device (i.e. with Ovi Suite)
    After the file is installed reboot device (do not change language during boot up if asked).

  • HT4946 Where are my Iphone Photos?

    Where are my photos backed up from my iphone? I am using a new macbook pro and cannot locate the MobileSync folder anywhere. They are not located n the Itunes Media folder either.

    Your backup folder is here:
    ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    You will have to turn on "Show All Hidden Files/Folders" to see it. The only photos in that folder are photos from your camera roll. However, nothing in that folder is directly viewable...it's an SQLite database...without the use of third-party software.
