How to import pictures and Photos files

Hello

From the Finder?

Thanks in advance!

Carolyn

Basically you can drag folders with pictures directly in the window of Photos or the Photos icon in the Dock.

Or use the command "file > import" and select the folder in the file selector Panel.

The Photos appear in the album last import. And pictures will warn of possible duplicates.

But if you want to create albums for folders in the Finder, use an Apple Script.  Can't stand the pictures to match the folder structure in the finder for albums.  See this tip for the user:

Import Image files records into the library in Albums

  • "Import pictures and videos using Windows Live Photo Gallery" option is missing from AutoPlay in Windows 7 64 bit

    I saw this question and answer:

    http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/w7files/thread/5c567ab1-208D-400D-9bce-0598d43a0574

    but I think I have a more serious problem. In Windows 7 RC, when I plugged in my camera or insert a memory card, I could choose "import pictures and videos using Windows Live Photo Gallery", but in my new installation of Windows 7 RTM, on which I have installed Windows Live Photo Gallery, there is no "Import pictures and videos using Windows Live Photo Gallery" option allotted me in the list of Control Panel AutoPlay or on the AutoPlay pop-up that appears when I plug in a camera.

    How can I get that back? Without this option, I have to go through the manual steps tedious to execute WLPG and manually choose to import from there and say what is my camera. It was much better under Vista and Win7RC when I had the simple auto play option.

    My PC is running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, but I also installed WLPG on two new computers Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit my parents, and they have exactly the same problem. Is this a known bug? Is there a solution?

    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!

    Hello bitoclass,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers Site.

    The Windows Live Photo Gallery import Option is not available from the AutoPlay on x 64 systems. Try the underside of work around to see this option.

    Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.

  • 'Import pictures and videos' parameters collapsed at work after the installation of Windows Live Essentials

    Hi guys,.
    Today in the morning, when you import pictures from my Canon EOS Rebel Xti, I tried to change some settings in the dialog box "import pictures and videos" and to my surprise the link (button) Options does not work. I used to change the folder where the files would be saved or if the images would be deleted or no device.
    I think that it has become defective after the instalation of Windows Live Photo (Essentials), have you heard of this issue before? Is there a solution? Should I uninstall the Windows Live?
    I prefer to use the dialog box "Import pictures like videos" for most of my daily imports.
    Thanks in advance

    Do you mean prevent importing photos in a photo library?  Import from where and how?

    With the amount of information you provided that it is impossible to offer a solution.  We cannot see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and the configuration, i.e.:

    • What system version are you running?
    • What exactly is the problem in detail?
    • How much free space on your startup disk?
    • What is your library, i.e. how many photos?
    • What difficulties have tried?
    • where is your library?
    • did you apply the updates or upgrades just before the problem occurs?
    • you run a library "managed" or "referenced"?

    How to import pictures from my sony digital camera to my computer

    Hi skootto58,

    Google may help, or it can take you in many directions different or bad.  I have actually used Bing to get to most of the links posted here - so it is obviously useful, but most of us are trying to be a bit more useful than answering questions (even if lack us critical information).  I have referred you to a more appropriate forum, but since I think I can help with the question, I'll answer anyway.  Next time, unless you think that the problem is caused by malware or MSE (which I doubt is the case here), a question like that should be displayed in the site appropriate in the main forum from here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/hardware?page=1&tab=all&tm=1300700638376.

    I could be more specific, if I had the specific brand and model of the digital camera and the version of Windows you are using (for example, the SP2 32-bit Vista Business - Yes that much detail).  I don't know if your model has a USB transfer cable or if you remove the memory card and use a player to access the photos.  As it is, I can provide only generic information.  If it helps, it's fine.  If not, then provide this information and I'll try to find specific instructions.

    See the following article: http://www.ehow.com/how_5983411_import-pictures-camera.html.

    Here's a simple tutorial if you use Vista (and a camera with a USB connection): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/How-do-I-get-pictures-from-my-camera-to-my-computer.

    Here's a simple tutorial if you use Windows 7 (and a camera with a USB connection): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/How-do-I-get-pictures-from-my-camera-to-my-computer.

    This article deals with transfers of memory flash cards as well as in Windows 7: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Working-with-digital-pictures.

    If using Vista and the problem is that AutoPlay is not enable, see the following set up: http://maximumpcguides.com/windows-vista/change-windows-vista-auto-play-options/.

    To be honest, I think the best bet is to go to the Sony support, enter information about your camera, and I think one of the most frequently asked questions for each of them is to know how to transfer pictures to a computer.  Click on that and you should get specific instructions (even though they may vary depending on your Windows operating system, but will probably provide details for the latest versions or they will be so similar that no additional detail is required).  Start here enter your camera model: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/select-system.pl?PRODTYPE=7&NAVDISP=di# and then just look for the instructions and follow them.

    If the above does not work, try to download the manual of your camera from here: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/select-system.pl?DIRECTOR=DOCS and there is an excellent chance it will cover transfers to computers in every detail.

    If that still doesn't work, try their technical support at: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/support-contacts.pl?mdltype_id=3233637171028026724455847427576110810910389103578487710629503964124158815260451017366768662546770682171881008225288369594924104537922424613105685336519473843437435.  There is a good chance that this may involve a cost if your camera is out of warranty. In any case, chances are that it will cost you are highest with phone average contact with chat contacts and the lowest with contact e-mail (just as the level and speed of charge often decreases the same way).

    If you can't get free technical support from Sony and don't want to pay for it (and I can't blame you for it), then try their Forums (like this but for Sony and products free to use) and ask your questions there. Start here: https://forum.sel.sony.com/viewforum.php?f=69&sid=7d46201819078b814c4a7095f972920b and check to see if your question is already answered - it can be.  If this isn't the case, post and wait.  They seem not very active so it may be a while before you get a useful answer.

    If any of the works above, answer the questions I asked earlier to identify what we deal with, and I'll try to find something a little more precise.  If you have tried to do so but have a certain type of problem, then please also go into detail about what has happened or not happened when you tried.  The system detects the device or memory card?  Be as specific and detailed as possible because more I know, the better I can help you.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • "Import pictures and Vidoes" Routine changes Up...

    When you shoot pictures from an SD card in my camera the routine "import pictures and video ' hang up.  The only way to close it is to use the Task Manager closed down.  Any help?   To my knowledge, I have the latest drivers and updates.

    A little more in detail about what caused the error could have helped.  When an SD card is inserted into the computer, a dialog box appears with an option "Import pictures and videos."  This is the routine that was defective and left the dialog box after YOU import the photos on my computer.

    Section one did not apply.  All the files have been transferred, the question occurred during the copy was completed and the dialog box is not closed.

    Point two was inapplicable because the camera was not connected to the computer, or any application was running when I tried to do.

    The software which provides gun is used only if the camera is connected to the computer.  My local camera store owner told me this often permit lost photos and advised me to directly transfer photos using the SD card.

    However, I was able to find a work around using a different method to draw pictures on the SD card.  I opened the folder of file (rather than the first highlighted option "import pictures and videos" which resulted in the question) and then did a copy and paste files without a hitch.  Obviously, the photos and videos to import program does not work correctly.

    Aargh.  I don't know even what are my questions.  I bought the Premiere Elements: check.  I downloaded my purchase: check.  I'm CONFUSED now.  I am trying to achieve a montage which is the size of the postcard.  I found how to import pictures, but not how to make a collage.  I read the instructions to "seek" how to make a collage.  I am more than 50 years, maybe that's my problem.  Please help me to achieve this simple montage.

    Premiere Elements is a video editor. You try to make something of a video collage of your photos?

    If you try to make a photo montage in Premiere Elements, you use the wrong tool for the job.

    If you try to make a photo montage, there is a number of tools to do this in Photoshop Elements and the elements Organizer. Actually, the organizer has a tools especially designed to create collages of photos on the tab create. Have you tried to use this tool?

    BTW, I said goodbye to 50 a long, long time ago, pamela. It is really not difficult once you know what you want to do and where are the tools. You will want to perhaps by the book "Muvipix.com Guide Photoshop elements & first Elements 14", available on Amazon, which shows you step by step how to use all the tools in the programs as well as the Organizer.
