New Macbook won't take pictures Photos

Hi - I have a new Macbook Pro and I want to import all the photos of my trip to facilitate consultation.

However, in my last laptop I only used photos - and had files separated inside the photos section.

I've never used iPhoto and am not eager to try to learn something completely different.

Then I used Picasa for editing.

Should I just delete the Photos and then import the images in the place so I can start installing them and change my usual way?

What is the best way to go about deleting the Photos folder/section so that it is not predicting it is where your photos should go and allows them to go into the folders of photos.

Thank you

iPhoto has been replaced by the Photos app, and I suggest you give it a go because it is very easy to use. It would be a good idea because Google retire at Picasa, so you will have to change eventually.

You can use the screenshot Image of Application, included with OS X, import you the photos to the location you want (Pictures folder). It is also possible, in the Image Capture, so put the connected device (e.g. SD card) don't use Photos (or iPhoto) to import images. It is also possible to put Photos or iPhoto not to import images into the library.

There is no need to delete the Photos or iPhoto.

  • Have a new Macbook and remove the Apple Photo app

    Hello

    I have a new Macbook (El Capitan running) and I use another software Apple Photo of photo editing app. I would like to remove this app from my Mac.

    The programs that I use (affinity and ACDSee Pro 3 for Mac) are not allowed to access the photo library. And anyway I prefer to develop my own photo/file sequence.

    So, I would get around Photo and picture library altogether.

    I would like suggestions.

    Ignore the pictures and what you want - pictures is part of the operating system and removing it may damage or destroy the BONE

    Try to copy the library of Photos directly without Time Machine. Connect the two Macs using your network and copy the old Mac to the new library, well as signed in on your new Mac.

  • New MacBook Pro - photos cannot 'fix' library of Time Machine

    Hello.  I recently got a new Macbook Pro.  I have "" everything from my old macbook pro using my TimeMachine upward.  Everything seems to go well except...  When I opened the Photos I get a message that the library should be "repaired".   When the repair process is 95%, I get another message indicating that the library is not repairable.     I always have backups Time Machine and tried to restore the photo library, but it does the same thing.  I don't have access to the old computer.

    Any suggestions are appreciated.  I have pictures in iCloud, but download here sounds a lot of time.

    Thank you!

    I have pictures in iCloud, but download here sounds a lot of time.

    So, you might start with an empty photo library and let the pictures to download from iCloud. If you restore the library of Photos of Time Machine, Photos will be anyway download the complete library restored to iCloud and sync and compare. It will take the same time to synchronize again restored library.  The difference is, that the restored library will have all your projects - books, calendars, cards and all thumbnails of faces. If you download the library from iCloud, projects will be missing and thumbnails of faces. You will only have keywords searchable faces.

    I always have backups Time Machine and tried to restore the photo library, but it does the same thing.

    Where did you have restored the library? For an external drive or the pictures folder?

  • Cannot open the pictures library after the data transfer to my new macbook

    I transferred all my data from my old MacBook Air to my new MacBook Pro via a restore from time machine.

    My first time to open my library on my News Photos Photos of MacBook says that he must perform the restore procedure (see screenshot in German language).

    After the confirmation of this message Photos responds with a message telling me that it can't open the library (see screenshot in German language). The message to distinguish basically says Photos tried to fix the library, but it was impossible to open it.

    Any ideas that I could do to fix this problem?

  • How can I synchronize my catalog and photos stored on my PC with my new MacBook Pro?

    How can I synchronize my catalog and photos created on my PC with my new MacBook Pro?  I can't find a tutorial on how to do it.  I have the CC of photographers and Lightroom loaded on my MacBook.

    The easiest way to configure things so that you can use the same catalog on both systems is to put the catalog and the files of photos on a single external drive, which then you exchange between systems as needed. If you configure things properly, you can even avoid having to "link" the picture whenever you pass. You do only through pictures stored in the same folder as the catalog and at the same level, for example say you have "yourname Catalog.lrcat" located at the root of a folder called "Lightroom Sync", then you would need to have all your photos in the same folder "Lightroom Sync", once again to the root, so that the photos to sit at the same level as the catalog (paste all files under a single parent at the level folder of) catalog is easier). Installation like this, Lightroom can use the relative path of the catalog of photos and avoid any need to worry about the convention of naming/lettering of the operating system. Obviously, the hard drive must be formatted such as Windows and OSX have permissions of read/write on the disc, for example FAT32.

    There are other more complex methods, (for example using something like Dropbox), but the method 'all on one disc"is by far the simplest (and probably).

    Could not copy a file at the location requested. Mac OS 10, Version 10.10 [1].

    I JUST bought this new macbook pro and Lightroom installed, imported 2 lots of pictures, but all of a sudden he kept denying my imports with "could not read the file" or "couldn't copy file at the location requested.  Help, please!

    Your use of the word "files" (in the plural) still makes me believe that you have not checked the permissions on the folder that is appropriate (in the singular).

    You must determine the Destination of the Lightroom Import dialog window Panel and see which folder Lightroom is really tr6ing to copy photos in (which may have been accidentally changed and is not what you may have used in the past) and change the permissions to write to this folder.

  • Software to insert text in a photo and then take pictures of Windows to copy on an external USB to print at the pharmacy. Thank you

    You know a software product to insert text in the photo and then take pictures of Windows and copy on an external USB to print at the pharmacy. Thank you

    To achieve this product is Adobe Photoshop http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/family/.  This not only allows you to do, but allows you to manipulate pictures in almost any way you choose above all.

    If you are looking for a less expensive solution (although nowhere near as functional), then Microsoft Photo Editor free http://www.brothersoft.com/downloads/microsoft-photo-editor.html will probably do the job for you.  In addition, you can try the free Microsoft Office Picture Manager 2003 to http://www.brothersoft.com/microsoft-office-picture-manager-171868.html.  I suggest that you try the free options to determine if it meets your needs before you spend money on Adobe Photoshop (as good as Photoshop is).

    All these programs have the ability to record in a variety of formats - certainly, including that which can be handled by your local drug store (call them to check to determine what types of extensions that they can support and don't forget to use this format when you are working with your photos).

    Good luck and I hope this helps. Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.
