Why can't I "add photos to photo.app" from Safari?

I only use Safari for the ability to grab and "add" photos or images directly from Safari into (previously - iphoto) but now it's Photo.app. Why does this feature cease to work? Why are there so many more steps to using Photo.app. I do not think this is an improvement to download to my drive then go to the Photo.app to then import the image. 
My OS is 10.10.3. Am I the only one having this issue? Anyone find a workaround because Firefox is the clear winner if this little feature has been stripped away in Photo.app.

My irritations and query is because that option no longer works for me. The option is "available" but does nothing to right click for the menu options to "add to photo". It produces no action whereas it use to direct right into iphoto where I could make quick notes or the reference regarding why I wanted the image.
I can only download the image then go and import into Photo.app. I can't even drag the image over in order to make quick notes while I remember why I was collecting the image in the first place.
I am not sure if there are enough users of Photo.app at this time having this issue or at least not enough powerusers who relied on this once handy feature to note the disappearance in Photo.a
I wrote this up as a feature request. I hope others do too. Or tell me how to resolve this because I don't think Apple software engineers have considered the break in communication between Safari and Photo.app. Maybe it's intentional. IDK

    Why can I not add the audiobooks I purchased from itunes to my ipod. My ipod is 60 gb version 1.3. I think a 5th generation

    Kristy,
    Is your iPod configured to sync audiobooks?  To check, plug your iPod in and when it appears in iTunes locate it's audibooks tab and make sure it is set to them.

  • Why can't i add playlists to my iPhone from my mac while they are connected? I keep getting the following message "some items (meaning all of them) were not transferred because iTunes match is enabled." This is incredibly frustrating.

    I keep getting the following message "some items (meaning all of them) were not transferred because iTunes match is enabled." when I try to drag and drop a playlist, song, or album to my iPhone. This was NEVER a problem before iTunes match or the last iOS update. So what is the deal? Why can't i just add music to my phone from the mac? There is space on the phone. The only way I have found to get the music i want to the phone is to have it download from the phone. This is not something i want to have to do: go through and manually add every album and recreate a playlist on the phone when its there on the mac. And, even more irritating, since the new update, when the phone is plugged into the mac i can't actually view from the mac what music is on the phone. This is incredibly frustrating and any help would be much appreciated in managing my music libraries for each device.

    Hi,
    You cannot manually manage music with match turned on on your iOS device. If you want to manage music manually, you will need to turn off match on your iPhone.

  • Why can't print to Xerox Splash or HP from Safari or Apple Mail?

    I copy pasted this from the Printing and Faxing forum since it seems no one can answer my questions there. Maybe someone here has an answer.
    From yesterday:
    I just updated my computer from a G4 running 10.3.9 to a G5 running 10.4.5. I used the migrate wizard so I didn't need to install anything new. All my applications even seem to work well. The only thing I can't do is print from Safari or Mail to an HP LaserJet 1320 or a Xerox Docucolor G630. I reinstalled the drivers for both printers and I still can't print. I can print from Quark and Acrobat Reader just fine. A few months ago, I set up a G5 workstation but with that one I needed to install everything from scratch and I'm able to print from Safari and Mail fine from that computer. What do I need to do?
    One more thing, I tried printing a page from my System Profile and I can't. I click on the print button and nothing happens. I'm at a loss here. Where do I begin?
    I hate to be persistant but I really need some help. Let me tell you what I've done so far.
    I've gone to the HP site and downloaded the latest driver for the 1320n series printer and I reinstalled and set up the printer in the print center like I've always done with any of the printers I've set up before. I still can't print from Mail, Safari, and from the system. I see on the HP site that there is a fix in the Tiger system already (I think I'm reading that right) and I shouldn't be worrying about this.
    I found in one of the other forum listings about a Foomatic/hpijs and I installed that one. Nothing printed. I tried using a Generic PPD. Nothing happened.
    I reinstalled the Xerox Splash printer drivers from the disk and that didn't make a difference.
    In the print window, I can't make a PDF, won't let me Preview, and won't let me Print. I click on the buttons and they won't even react. It doesn't do anything. But even with the new drivers I've set up since I started all this, I can still print from Quark and Acrobat Reader. So it seems it's got something to do with the system.
    I'm really frustrated here. Can someone please give me a clue if they have one? Anything would be appreciated.

    Thanks a million for your input. I really appreciate it. I found the fix though in the troubleshooting section in the book I purchased from Dr. Smoke from the Forums. It's his X Lab for Tiger book. Dr. Smoke is THE BOMB! :~D I have to thank him again for his guru abilities!
    There was a plugin that was afoul. The Xerox Accounting plugin was causing my print option not to respond along with the other buttons in the print window. I removed it from the plugin folder and now I can print. I'm glad that's all it was.
    Thanks again!

  • Why Can't I Add Songs To My Ipod From Another Computer Without Erasing The Ones I Already Have?

    I have an "Ipod Touch 4 generation" and I have two computers located in my home. I have authorized both computers for my ipod. Why is that when I go to a computer and authorize it, it will not let me download the songs on that computer, without erasing the ones I have already on my Ipod?

    Hi
    This is because your iPod can only be synced with one computer, not just one iTunes account.

  • Why can't I download Free iPod Touch Apps from Apps Store w/Shopping Cart?

    I have an 8GB iPod Touch (original model) with the current 2.1 software. I also have iTunes v. 8.0. The behavior I am seeing started about 3 weeks ago and continues with these updates - it was not like this when I first downloaded the 2.0 software and began installing Apps.
    I prefer to manage my iPod Touch applications in iTunes. I have my iTunes account set up for a Shopping Cart, not 1-Click Buy. This is because for Music, I prefer to add songs I will want to my shopping cart, then buy them when I want to.
    When iTunes 7.7 first came out with v2.0 software, even though I have a Shopping Cart for my iTunes, I could "buy" a Free App just by clicking on it, and it would be automatically downloaded and added to my Applications folder on iTunes. Then, when I synced with my iPod Touch, it would install the app on my iPod Touch. This was true for either new Apps or upgrades to existing Apps.
    For the last few weeks, every time I try to update even an existing App for my iPod Touch, if I do it through the iTunes store, I get the following message:
    "Applications cannot be purchased with Shopping Cart.
    Your preferences are currently set to buy using Shopping Cart. Application purchases cannot be placed in Shopping Cart: they must be purchase by 1-Click. Select Buy if you'd like to purchase [NAME OF APPLICATION} by using 1-Click and your credit card will be charged immediately."
    The [NAME OF APPLICATION] is filled in with whatever application I am dealing with at that time.
    Why is it that even with a Free application, and an update for it at that, it will not let me obtain it with iTunes if I have a Shopping Cart? So far, I have solved the problem by doing all of my Applications management on my iPod Touch. I use the iTunes Store on my iPod Touch to search for and download the application. Then, when I sync, it places it in my Applications folder on iTunes on my PC.
    This is very strange behavior for iTunes. Why would it want to charge my credit card for a Free Application?
    Many thanks.
    Joe

    Hi Steve,
    Thanks for your reply. I do have a valid Credit Card on the account. In addition, I also have about a $5 credit from an iTunes gift card in my iTunes account.
    In any event, I'm actually NOT purchasing anything. All I'm trying to do is download a FREE App for my iPod Touch. It simply won't let me do it.
    This is extremely frustrating.
    Best regards.
    Joe

  • Why can't I receive and download my app from Testflight/iTunes connect?

    This problem just started during the switch from Test Flight to iTunes connect last week.
    I've been receiving the email invite but when I go to download the app TestFlight says:
    "You aren't currently testing any apps. To accept an invitation, you must tap the link in the invitation email."
    I do that and it takes me back to this screen.
    Please advise.

    Me too... and now I have a build just sitting in the Processing state on the Prerelease -> Builds screen.
    When iTunes Connect was having huge problems last weekend, (March 14 - 15, 2015) at least the Apple systems status page was showing problems at the iTunes Store. but everything is green now.  https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/

    For a transition to work, you need handles... basically, enough footage to overlap each other so that the transition can grab from both sides... your clip is merely 7 frames, way too short to be able to add a transition...
    I've used the "joining two pieces of fabric" analogy before, but I think it was too girly.. Perhaps another way to think about it, is to think of a "dovetail joint" used in wood working... the two pieces of wood need to grab onto each other in order to hold together...
    Anyhow, doing a quick search to perhaps better explain, I found this:

    Why can't I add a location to a photo in the new Photos app?  Apple appears to have taken away a feature without asking. 

    I have an iPhone and occasionally use it for photos, but my main camera is NOT an iPhone.  To be forced to go outside Apple for a product when Apple had perfectly good products available is ludicrous.  But it is what it is, apparently.

  • Why can I no longer import EDITED photo from my iPad to my Mac using Image Capture from Snapseed app?

    Why can I no longer import EDITED photo from my iPad to my Mac using Image Capture? This is farcical and a real problem having to email them individually to myself and is totally inefficient time wise compared to previously using image capture! Why change this when it was working well and very quickly until the latest change. Now I have to move files from downloads into an appropriate folder, after emailing each individual edited image to myself, then I have to open in Photoshop and rename the file. This is ludicrous and takes forever to do!

    Thank you! I suppected it would be in the settings somewhere. I' ve much to learn...get myself into trouble pushing buttons I don't really understand.
