• Import iPhoto Library after upgrade of the Sierra

  I upgraded to Sierra and now try to import some of my photos from iPhoto library that I had saved to Time Machine. The Photos App says 'nothing to import' - everyone has figured this out? Thank you!

  Belongs to the iPhoto Library always Time Machine backup?

  Can restore to a different drive. You cannot migrate the library as part of a Time Machine backup or a disk Time Machine.

  To migrate the iPhoto for photo library, drag the Photos icon in the Dock or launch Photos while holding down the button options. That will bring up a panel of library selector. Now select the iPhoto in restored library.

  Photos cannot import libraries and merge them into existing libraries. He can't open a library to create a library of Photos converted.

  If you already have a library of Photos, read the help page on how to switch between several libraries of Photos:

  iPhoto is not removed from your hard drive.  It was just removed from the dock and is always in the Applications folder. In order to get iPhoto 9.6.1 from the App Store, you must first have a version of iPhoto 9.X on your hard drive. If you try following instructions of Terence Devlin this post to get iPhoto 9.6.1 from the App Store:

  Go to the App Store and check out the shopping list. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1

  If iPhoto 9.6.1 is there, close the App Store, drag your existing iPhoto application (not the library, just the app) to the trash and then return to the App Store.

  Install the application on the App Store.

  IPhoto is sometimes not visible on the shopping list. It may be hidden. See this article for more details on how to view it.

  A question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?

  iPhoto, the application and the iPhoto library are two different parts of the iPhoto program. So, reinstall the application should not affect the library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  NOTE: the key of this procedure is to move the existing version of iPhoto 9 to the trash in the Dock (not yet empty) before going to the App Store.

  

• Photos deleted from the Photos app after importing and deleting off iPhone

  As the title says, today I was importing my photos and video of my iPhone for free space and to save my photos of my MacBook Pro. After everything has been imported, I deleted all the photos from my iPhone. Began shortly after the deletion, all the pictures I imported "up-to-date" and by removing themselves from the Photos app (on the macbook) and the iCloud photo library.

  I'm a bit frustrated because it was the exact opposite of why I import me my pictures and video on my computer. What is happening and is there a way I can retrieve media? Thank you.

  iCloud photo library has a single purpose - to share a library among multiple users to keep all the identical libraries so nothing added, it is added, removed or modified in a deleted or changed in all - it is a solution for streaming to the synchronization of all libraries - it is not a backup or a place to store a part of a library

  iCloud Photo library FAQ - Apple Support

  deleted photos should be in the album recently deleted and if you select them here and right click and replace what they should go back to where they were

• Import iPhoto library in Bridge (from mac items)

  Hi, I'm looking for a way to make my iPhoto library in Elements 8 for Mac so that I can browse them in Bridge. The only way I've seen do that here in this forum is ' in PSE 8.0 File > Open. In the side panel of the "Open" window, select Photos in press. Now in the menu that appears, choose iPhoto. Now select the photos you want to import and click Open. Your selection will open in PSE 8.0. "

  I really don't want the items, I want to see my photos in Bridge. I really need to import them first in the elements?

  Thanks in advance for any help in this.

  Firislander

  Well enough, he must choose between iphoto and bridge for general use. You can't browse the iphoto with bridge library. If you use iphoto, it's your browser, no bridge. You can set the PES as external editor for iphoto and send photos from there, if you want to continue to use iPhoto as your main organizer.

• Cannot open iPhoto Library as it says library version is too old - have tried to download the iPhoto library valuation tool - still does not open.

  Hi, I saved my photos on my passport, since I upgraded my phone and now I can't open the photos as it says that the version of the library is too old. I've uploaded my photos from my old laptop to my new office using my passport and still can't open. I tried to download the iPhoto library valuation tool but still does not open. Can someone please?

  Thank you

  I tried to download the iPhoto library valuation tool but still does not open.

  But install you and run the iPhoto Library upgrade?  Just the download is not enough.  You need to open the library in upgrader iPhoto library and let it prepare the library.  After installation, you will find the iPhoto Library upgrade in the "Utilities" folder in the "Applications" folder

• People app; Cannot import contacts

  Hello. I'm not having any luck import my contacts in the people application :-(. I have a lot of contacts in Outlook, and this account (my main account from Microsoft) appears under 'accounts' in the settings. When I opened this account however, it shows that E-mail as content to synchronize. I created an outlook.com account and added that the people app, and when I check the settings for that one, it shows emails, contacts and calendar as "content to synchronize. I've also added my Google gmail account and my Skype account, but the contacts of those who do not appear either. Under 'options' Google, Outlook and Skype are checked in 'display only those contacts '. On the homescreen in the lower right corner, it says that I'm connected to 2 accounts outlook, Skype, and Google. I tried to turn it back on the shelf, the people app and outlook without result. Any ideas?

  Thnx in advance.

• "Import of Aperture library...". "(and"import iPhoto Library... ") options are disabled

  Brand new installation of Lightroom, latest version and opening even perfectly up-to-date.  Catalog new, empty.  Tried to create a second catalog anyway, which made no difference.  Deactivating and reactivating the plugin makes no difference.

  "Opening import Info...". "(equivalent of iPhoto and one) are the only ones available, in this submenu.  And clicking on either just brings up a dialog box indicating falsely that the import has already taken place.

  Capture One stop instead, I guess.

  Please go to the Applications folder and then uninstall Lightroom from the LR folder.

  Install and update the Application from the following link: keeping up-to-date for Lightroom

• I cannot import video from iPhoto to iMovie because the app does not appear under 'movies '.

  OK, so I'm trying to download a video of 4 min 26 s (739 MB 1920 x 1080 29,96 fps H.264) in iMovie & iMovie does not recognize my Nikon D800 as being connected, so I uploaded the video to my iPhoto.  My original iPhoto has been deleted because it was corrupted and the peeps on the Apple Store deleted and created a new.  Now when I go in iMovie, I click on "Import" and then I click 'Movies' and in the window, all I can choose is iMovie, a directory of blue movies, PhotoBooth, & iTunes. Help! I just eventually want to download YouTube : (o)

  In the screenshot you posted, you should see iPhoto in the list between films and photo booth. Also movies iPhoto should appear in the browser. Since you see nor it seems than iMovie and the operating system cannot see iPhoto library. If you click the photo button in the toolbar you see your photos in iPhoto? If this is not the case, this would confirm a problem with iPhoto library. Try opening iPhoto, hold down the command and option keys. In the first aid window trying to repair the library and perhaps rebuild if repair does not fix your problem.

• How can I import my library 'Photos' of mac Lightroom 6, preserving the folders that I created?

  I've scoured the Internet and Adobe sites, but have not found a solution.  The link Adobe How to transfer photos from iPhoto or Aperture for Photoshop Lightroom (Mac OS) suggests using the option options plug-in, but on my lightroom 6, which shows that no defined"»  Instructions copied here from Adobe:

  Note:

  It is recommended that you back up your Lightroom catalog before you continue.

  • In Lightroom, choose file > Options of the plug-in.

  • Select "Import iPhoto Library" or "Import library opening."

  • Your iPhoto or Aperture library will be detected automatically. You have the option to select another library, as appropriate.

  I also tried to install the zip as suggested (https://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/lightroom/help/import-iphoto/_jcr_content/main-par s/procedure_1/proc_par/step_0 /..., ubt ), but it will not open in Lightroom6 for me.

  Can anyone help?  I'm not worried about saving each edition or the mac Photos feature, but the records are really critical.  I won't try to re-organize 9000 photos records 50 +, I created.
