Where is my login photo stored?

My login photo turned out to be quite nice so I would like to use it for other things. Where is it saved to?

Weird... I went there but there was no folder... So I took another photo and then went back and miraculously there was a folder with a picture in it.
The login photo is still missing in action though. =P

    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 is a Cleaned up Photo Stored

    After you remove redeye and enhance a photo from a linked folder in iPhoto, where is the cleanup photo stored??  I want to put them on a jump drive.

    The following is from one of Terence Devlin’s posts on file access for use outside of iPhoto.  It’s the definitive treatise on the subject.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    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.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    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.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  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.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Where are my Photos stored if I want to access them through a third party

    Hello!
    I want to be able to back up my photos from the new Photos for OS X using a third party - such as Google+ Auto Backup.  I am trying to point Google+ to the source of my photos, but can not figure out where they are located in the Finder!! The option to point to the Photos app is greyed out and I don't seem to see anywhere else that the actual files could be stored. Are my photos stored anywhere that I can show Google+ Auto Backup? I would like to have it regularly backup my Photos, but can not find them!
    Thanks so much in advance!!!!
    OS X Yosemite 10.10.3
    Photos Version 1.0

    Hi Terence!
    Thanks so much for replying! I was hoping to backup the photos on an ongoing basis - something I'm pretty sure I was doing with iPhoto. As I would add new photos to my iPhoto library they would automatically backup for me through the Google+ app on my laptop (like an iCloud). If I export them, as you suggested, I would have to do that manually. Is there anyway to use a third party to backup Photos? I hope I'm making sense!!!
    Thanks again - I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge with me!

  • Where should I store the collatoral files that are associated with photos stored in lightroom?

    Where should I store the collatoral files that are associated with photos stored in lightroom? Items such as pdf files, word documents, etc. How should I connect them to each other so I can find both the photo and the related data?

    Lightroom itself will not help you with pdf, word, etc.
    However, there is a plugin you can use called AnyFile which will allow you to manage these documents in Lightroom (by assigning keywords and other metadata) so that you can search for all documents (photos, pdf, word, music, powerpoint, etc.) with given metadata.
    Because you do this via metadata, it doesn't matter where you put these files. Put them anywhere you want.

  • Where are my photos stored?

    When I import pictures in iphoto from my SD memory card where do the pictures get stored?  Another words, what directory do I look under in Finder to find them?  Same thing with movies download from my SD card.

    Standard Warning:
    Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things,, deleting them or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.

  • I have my wallpaper/screensaver pointed at my iPhoto album. why does a photo of half dome pop up occasionally? where is the photo stored?

    i have an late '09 27" iMac upgraded to yosemite (I've accepted all upgrades from apple along the way). i have my alternating backgrounds & screensaver pointed at my iPhoto album. so why does a photo of half dome pop up occasionally? where is the photo stored? i have been to yosemite many times and do love the scenery there, but i'd like to be in charge of my screensaver. i've tried looking for the photo by name/name fragment,  but of course, if apple doesn't want us to find it, we won't find it. i don't like apple preventing me from setting up background/screensaver to my liking. apple makes the computer for the rest of us.

    You're welcome.
    have you noticed for yourself if these photos are always mixed with one's selection via system preferences?
    Actually no.  What I have always done was this:  I have a collection of custom desktop pictures   I made a custom folder for the pictures & placed them inside the Machintosh>Library>Desktop Pictures folder.
    Then I went into System Preferences>Desktop & Screensaver>Desktop, clicked on the plus sign to add my custom picture folder. 
    Restarted my comp.
    Never had any issues by doing the above.  I have always done it this way since the Tiger OS.

  • I don't know where to find my photos that are supposed to be stored on the "cloud".  I don;t want to erase them until I can locate them.

    I don't know where to find my photos that are supposed to be stored on the "cloud".  I don't want to erase them from my iPhone until I can locate them.  I'm out of storage.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Only photos in photostream are kept in the cloud and only for 30 days. To save your photos before deleting them, sync them to a computer or an online storage solution such as Dropbox.

  • HT4137 When I back up my iPhone using iTunes, where does the information get stored?

    I have a problem. 
    I have an iPhone that has already been synced with an HP laptop.  This PC is now in need of repair but the price of repair was too costly so I bought a MacBook Pro to replace it.
    I would like to now sync my iPhone with my new MacBook using iTunes but when I attempt this I get a message stating that all the information in my iPhone will be replaced by all the information in iTunes (which is nothing).  I cannot afford to lose all the information in my iPhone but also I cannot update my iPhone using iTunes because it has not been paired with my new MacBook and I am told that it can only be paired with one computer at a time.  I cannot unpair it with my old PC because my old PC doesn't even boot up anymore.
    I was told that I could Backup the information in my iPhone by control clicking on the icon in the toolbar to the left of the iTunes screen which would then let me sync safely.  I have now done this but I still have nothing to show for this in the iTunes library (no music, photos, notes, contacts etc.) and I have no idea where this backup has been stored.
    Also in the help menu in iTunes it says that media files such as songs, videos and some photos AREN'T backed up but can be restored by syncing with iTunes (how is this possible to restore something that hasn't been backed up in the first place?).
    I am really stuck with this and hope that someone out there can help.
    Leigh

    The first step in the sync process is to create a backup.  On a mac this backup is located at
    ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup.  The backup does not included iTunes media as it is assumed to be in the iTunes library you are syncing with.  Also, as you have discovered, when you first sync with a new iTunes library iTunes will erase all iTunes media on the phone (music, videos, etc.) and replace it with the media in the library you are syncing with.  Photos from Camera Roll (which are taken by the phone) are part of the backup.  Photos in Photo Library (which were synced to your phone from your computer) are not; again, because it is assumed they are already on your computer as that is how they were synced to your phone in the first place.
    What, exactly, is still on your phone at this point?

  • How can I get my photos stored on iPad back if I do not own iOS device anymore?

    Hi,
    I need to get my photos stored on iPad back.
    I do not own iOS device anymore.
    I think I have been synced the photos with the cloud but not sure. The same with updating to iOS5. It was iPad 2.
    I have installed the iCloud for Windows, but do not see the photos downloaded back to my windows notebook. Maybe I should turn on syncing somehow or it should start automatically after I run iClpud app and set photo syncing option on?
    If it's not help, do you have any other ideas?
    For example, could it be helpful if I try to get someones else iPad and login to app store with my account to see my old photo?
    Thanks.

    In iTunes I see I hade a backup in Dec'11, so I gues I had used iCloud. Any ideas why my photos are not downloading back via iCloud for Windows?

  • Where is iPhoto Location information stored for third-party plug-ins/export

    I use Smugmug for my photos. There is a standalone Smugmug uploader called MacDaddy that can upload photos from iPhoto and a plug-in that adds to the Export menu and uploads straight from iPhoto. Neither of these manages to get the GPS information, though. Does the built-in Flickr uploader successfully include GPS information? If I export photos from iPhoto and check Include Location Info, and then upload it works fine. So where is the Places info stored and how would a third-party uploader access it so that I could directly upload from iPhoto without having to first export?
    I sent them the AlbumData.xml and it didn't seem to be available there. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Ernie

    I just today went through this with Picasa Web Albums. I'll tell you how I got that to work.
    First in iPhoto if you select your photos (I'd use an album or smart album to collect them) you can click on File > Export > and choose File Export in the bar on the Export window. At that point you can choose to include Location Information. Export your photos to some file of your choice. At that point they are normal jpeg files with L/L info.
    Now I presume Smugmug has an uploader you can use from there.
    This isn't slick but it seems to give me more freedom than the Picasa add-on for iPhoto. Of course I don't have the synchronization I understand the Flickr built in uploader gives but I don't believe I want that anyway.

  • HT4858 What about number of days. How long is a photo stored in shared photo stream? 30 days?

    What about number of days. How long is a photo stored in shared photo stream? 30 days?
    Also, do photos in a photo stream (shared or personal) get backed up on a pc if the icloud panel is there?
    Regards               

    I've adapted this from a function on my blog. you will need to add set the YourTicketTable to where ever your tickets are stored.
    CREATE
    FUNCTION [dbo].[CalcWorkDaysBetween](@StartDate
    As DateTime,@EndDate
    AS DateTime)
    RETURNS
    INT AS
    BEGIN
    SET @EndDate
    =DATEADD(DAY,1,@EndDate)
    DECLARE @Count
    AS Int= 0
    DECLARE @Date
    As Date=@StartDate
    WHILE @Date
    < @EndDate
    BEGIN
    IF (DATEPART(WEEKDAY,@Date)IN(1,7)
    OR (SELECT
    Count(*)
    FROM YourTicketTable WHERE TicketDate=@Date)=1)
    BEGIN
    SELECT @Count = @Count
    + 1
    END
    SELECT @Date=DATEADD(Day,

  • Can I load photos stored on a pc backup hardrive onto my Mac IPhoto?

    Can I load photos stored on a pc backup hardrive onto my Mac IPhoto?

    You can indeed.  Simply drag the folder containing the images (or the images themselves) from the hard drive to the iPhoto icon in the dock (same one you click on to open iPhoto.  This will cause iPhoto to start importing whatever you drag in.
    Two suggestions:
    Have a backup of your current library before you do the import just in case iPhoto encounters a corrupt file during import which might damage your existing library of images:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553
    Import the images in small batches if there are many of them.  That way if there is an error with one of the images during import you can easily identify where the bad image is coming from.
    Cheers.

  • Where is the printer queue stored - and how to delete all queue jobs?

    I ran into a problem after I installed the Roll paper feeder on my Epson R1800. All of a sudden files will not print anymore.
    One thing that may cause a problem is that there are two previous files (pdf I think) that someone else tried to print yesterday looking for a different printer on regular Letter size paper that are still in the queue because they did not print successfully. Everytime I tell Photoshop to print my photo on the Roll paper, those two old jobs pop back up on the printer queue gui and the system stops saying "wrong paper type for this job". Then I delete those two old jobs so there is only the Roll paper one left but it just sits there and wont print. When I launch the utility to check is all is kosher, sometimes it will give me the ink cartridge levels without a problem but sometimes it claims a communication error. I have re-checked the connection and everything and all is OK. When I launch the printer utility and tell it to print a Nozzle Check test, it prints it without a problem so there really is no prob with the communication.
    When I restart the computer and the printer and try again, the two old jobs that I deleted in the previous step always reappear. So I wonder if, those two pdf jobs are kinda screwing with the system and should be deleted. But as i said, everytime I delete them, they look like they disappear from the list but my photo job just sits there on the queue without printing. The jobs are not stopped and there is no Hold on this one. If I quit and re-launch the print job, the old ones re-appear in the queue. So they must be stored someplace and are not deleting correctly. Does anyone know where this cue file is stored and what it is called? I have looked in Application Support and in Preferences but I can't see anything that looks like it.
    I have downloaded the drivers from Epson for this printer again but that doesn't do anything either. I am using 10.4.11 on an 24 inch iMac intel 2.4Ghz. I only use the stock Apple utilities, no funky third party addon except for the Epson drivers. The printer utilities are:
    Epson Printer Utility v3.01
    Stylus R1800 utility v4.7(161.10)
    Thank you for any help.

    Hooray, we found the problem! BOO, we already found the problem elsewhere!
    Sooo, it seems we have some kind of Permission problem, have you Repaired Permissions ad rebooted?
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 5 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files!
    Disconnect the USB cable from any UPS so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.
    Or we could maybe go back to that window, click on Printers, remove it? (Thinking perhaps the jobs will go away with the printer!?)
    Or would you like to delve into the hidden folders/files to try to handle this?

  • Where is the account picture stored after initial setup?

    where is the account picture stored after initial setup?

    Are you looking to change the image? If so go to system prefs, go to accounts. You'll see the image that you see at login, by clicking on it you'll be given a drop down with all the images which you can select a different right there. If you go to the root directory in the libray folder you'll see a folder user pictures they are in there. The root directory is the main device on your hardrive, you can open finder and see it listed in the sidebar. Hope this helps!
