How to move photos from a camera to an external hard drive?

I did it before connecting each of them in my iMac, but I don't remember the correct sequence and the steps necessary to transfer the photos from my camera to my external hard drive. Thanks for your suggestions.

The simplest method is to take the SD card out of the camera and then insert it into the SD slot on the side of your 2011 27 "iMac and copy and paste the pictures from the SD card to your DHM.

  • can I import from the camera directly to external hard drive

    I recently joined the mac world... before this I used a windows machine and will import directly on my SD card and my destination was my DHM. I did this strategically by date so that everything would be in order... I have my catalog related to my DHM and things were a lot until I started to import and also export it is said that they pictures cannot be read. However when I bind to the new computer, I used the DHM and LR found them without any problem. I thought that maybe my DHM has not been formatted for Mac and that could be the problem... I was wondering if anyone has any input on this subject. I spoke with someone at Adobe on a chat and screen sharing and they imported 400 + photos on my hard drive and said that I was not able to complete the process I described above. Noted that I had to import to HD and then proceed to SMT. Not sure why I would add another step when I could just import to SMT. So now I have 400 + pictures on one day in April which is very incorrect... I was disappointed with this Adobe chat person.

    I'm not sure I understand exactly what is your problem, but I will try to answer. You can store your photos anywhere you want including an external hard drive. The key is when you import photos into lightroom, to 'say' where are the pictures. When you start the import process on the right side of the screen to import you set the destination for the import. You can set your internal hard drive or an external hard drive as your location as long as do you at the time of importation. If you choose an external hard drive, the pictures do not have to be placed on your internal drive at the beginning. In addition, your catalog of lightroom (record of changes, not the pictures themselves), can be stored on your internal HD or external HD.

  • How can I move music and photos from my MacBook on an external hard drive, files without deleting the existing NTFS files stored on it?

    Hello.

    I am aware that this issue (or different versions of it) will be requested a thousand times before, but after searching on the internet for a solution, I have been unable to find all the information that brings a simple clear answer that is specific to my problem and so thought I would ask the question myself.

    I recently bought a Toshiba 1 TB external hard drive to transfer music, photo files and internal document in front of the memory of my old PC running Windows, as well as files, music and photos from my existing MacBook Pro, so I can "release" the memory on the latter.

    Transfer files from the old PC proved to be easy; success achieved by simple drag / drop the files to the appropriate location on the external HD icon of Toshiba which appears once I connected to a USB port. It is perhaps worth mentioning that the area of States hard drive has been formatted NTFS for Windows, and so I guess that I would not have expected any problems when transferred to a PC.

    Move the files from my MacBook has however proved anything but simple and trying to drag the respective music and photo files and drop them on the HD Toshiba icon (which appears on my desktop once it is plugged), I seem to be affected by the same issues as so much seems to have it before me, in that "forbidden access" / error symbol appears with the cursor , and bounce the files to their original location whenever I try to place them on the Toshiba HD.

    I understand that this is due to the HD is formatted in NTFS, and that I would need to reformat the hard drive to move files from my MacBook, which brings me to my questions:-

    (a) how do I do this, and

    (b) can I do this without losing, damage or remove the NTFS files from my old PC, which are already stored on the external hard drive.

    If one is able to offer any assistance, in the most simple, easy to follow the description, I would be really grateful!

    Never been so thanks in advance!

    1 install software such as Paragon NTFS on the Mac and let the reader in its current form or from the Finder, choose utilities go to menu, open disk utility and reformat.

    2. that by putting a copy on another drive. You should do this anyway, in case of failure of this drive.

    Apparently, I have 35 GB of photos on my Mac mini (end of 2014).   How can I transfer these images on an external hard drive (cloud disk) for a backup?

    You must specify:

    These photos are managed by an app like iPhoto? Photos? Opening? or something else. If so, what app?

    What exactly do you want to do: move/transfer? or save? These are very different things. What your "cloud drive" reference doesn't make reference to?
