transfer problem from Leopard to Snow Leopard iPhoto library

I have a G4 Mini Leopard (10.5.8).  A year ago I accidentally moved the iPhoto library to a flash drive, instead of just copying what I intended, so after that I could only see my photos in iPhoto via the flash player.

Now, I have an Intel Mini under Snow Leopard.  I want to get my photos in iPhoto on this computer.  I found this answer of discussion on how to do it at this link: 11 iPhoto library: Lion to snow leopard

"- Together to connect the two Macs (network, fashion target firewire, etc.) or use an external hard disk formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder on the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready to move on."

I checked my flash player, and unfortunately it is in MS-DOS (FAT 32), not Mac OS Extended journaled format.  I'm afraid that if I put the i photo library it is about that in the pictures of the Mini Intel folder it will cause a BIG problem.  It will be? I suppose that if I tried to reformat the flash drive, I would lose the content above, right?

If so, the only other place I have my photos on a disk external bootable with OS 10.5.8 I was support of the mini G4 up to it on a regular basis with Time Machine.  Is there a way I can make use of this to get my pics on the Intel mini?  If so, how?  I don't really know how to use Time Machine, so give me the specific steps to be extremely important and very useful.

As a senior, I'm out of my depth here, so all the ideas/help will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

As a start connect the last drive on the new Mac and drag the iPhoto library folder pcitures and launch iPhoto - it works - it could, if it test and you sholud b fine - if it's not then psot for help in restoring the backup TM

BTW - TM is not bootable backups

  • Delete a photo library, now can bring into the iPhoto library

    I have Photos of El Capitan put in place to manage multiple libraries on the same MacBook Pro internal hard drive.  I was trying to create a new additional library, but seem to have screwed things up.

    I created the new photo library, called "BB_Photos", then introduced in photos from iPhoto to Snow Leopard.  I note that the same name iPhoto library is on a second internal hard drive.  The new library seems to have created OK in El Capitan.  However, I was unhappy and trashed the library of Photos of El Capitan, in the hope of re - create.  Now I can't pictures released Photos a second time.

    In Snow Leopard, the library presented as 'BB_Photos.migratedphotolibrary' and I can line up the pictures of El Capitan.  (Even once, note that these are on two separate disks, because I am dual boot.)  Photos I am trying to re-import or something, but I trashed this library.  Are photos ransacked still hiding somewhere in the Photos?

    The iPhoto library is visible from El Capitan pictures inside, but it is grayed out and not available.  However, I can still open and view inside Snow Leopard iPhoto library.

    How can I cancel my original error and get "BB_Photos" in El Capitan pictures?  I can't the library of Snow Leopard to be "not migrated" so Photos can see it again?

    Photos does not open "BB_Photos", because the file name extension ".migratedphotolibrary" shows that the library has already migrated to the Photos.

    Simply restore the file name extension ".photolibrary". You can do this in the Info Panel.

    Select "BB_Photos... migratedphotolibrary" in the Finder, then enter the ⌘I key combination to open the information panel. Change the file name extension in the "Name & Extension" section of the Info Panel.

    You may need to click on, then uncheck "hide the Extension."

  • Unable to connect to peers after upgrade from Leopard to Lion

    Greetings!

    Update from Leopard to Snow Leopard to Lion (must have the cloud!) yesterday. All right.

    Have run the version Version 1.1 (62573) Fusion for more than four years on Leopard. It has always worked fine, never had a single problem, so why just change. Fusion to run Windows XP.

    After the update to Lion, now error message appears: could not connect to peer.

    I've browsed the forum a bit, but can't seem to understand what is the cause.

    I am a user of software, not so much a technical guy...

    All advice is appreciated.

    Thank you very much

    best,

    Marcel.

    If in the shows of the VM settings, the drive hard 100 GB then Windows must also show as 100 GB, however if it is not previously affected and there is no Snapshots and that you ran the VMware Tools shrink function then on Mac in the Finder it should only show the approximate size displays the used space in Windows Explorer.  It will of course grow and take additional host of disk space that the content is added to the guest or snapshots are made etc, etc.

  • How can I transfer photos from the "iPhoto" to 'Photos' without losing info "date of creation"?

    I decided to transfer all the remaining photos, I have always in an old iPhoto Library in pictures. I was able to 'rebuild' the library within the new version of iPhoto (which still exists on my Mac) and then export all the photos in a folder on a hard drive. However, when I then imported in Photos, they all got a new 'creation date' the exact moment where I imported the - missing information about when they were shot. Is there anything I can do to keep this information in Photos? The problem is that I can't even sort the pictures in "Photos" - under the "Sort" in the "View" menu option, there is only one, gray, option: 'Keep sorted by oldest first' if I look 'Photos' or 'Album' 'All the Photos' in the sidebar. Why are there no more options? (For example, sort by title?) Why is "Photos" so clumsy and unwieldy and paradoxical? Why does he use the same generic name ("Photos") for the app and the real thing, he manages a link in the sidebar? What happened to the Mac user interface intuitive but customizable? Augggghhhh!

    TO migrate from keep everything that you migrate the iPhoto for pictures library by dragging the Photos icon in the dock

    If you export you create them new files with metadata selected although the date of the photos should stay in the fields of EXIF/IPTC - assistance to export from iPHoto see - export to iPhoto

    If the metadata is not correct after exporting it's user error - and if you perform the migration instead of export and import, nothing will change-- How Photos handles content and metadata for iPhoto and Aperture - Apple Support

    What about sorting in the Photos - all the photos of the user can be sorted by ascending or descending date or by title - see Photos (years/collections/moments) is always sorted by date of the photo with the oldest first and pictures is always sorted by date added

  • How to transfer pictures from iPhoto photo app /icloud app

    my photos on an external hard drive in iPhoto app, when I switch to camera app, there is no way to sync my pictures with iTunes, what do I do now?

    I want to transfer pictures from iPhoto for photo app, I want to synchronize my phone with iTunes, I have 50 GB iCloud because I don't have enough space for the pictures on the mac pro book / that's the reason why I have external hard drive storage photos in iPhoto app / and finally, iPhoto app is not God to keep photos and synchronize with iTunes no more?

    And finally, iPhoto app is not God to keep photos and sync with iTunes, not more?

    You can use Photos to keep your library and you can use iTunes to sync the photos in your iPhoto library or a library of Photos on your iPhone.

    Only, you can not use iTunes to sync photos to your iPhone, if you use iCloud photo library on your iPhone.

    But what application now do you use on your Mac to store your library of photos - news pictures for Mac application or you use iPhoto?  It's not quite clear to me your question, because you MENTION both applications.

    iTunes can sync photos of two applications for your iPhone, as long as the iPhone is not synchronized with iCloud photo library.

  • Transfer pictures from iPhoto to Photos

    I transferred all my photos in iPhotos pictures when I first put in place. I imported more photos from my iPhone in iPhotos. How can I transfer the of iPhotos Photos?

    You'd better transfer your photos directly in the Photos, when download you them from your iPhone.

    Photos don't have the tools to move photos from an iPhoto library into an already existing photo library.

    Now that the photos in your iPhoto library, export them iPhoto: select all new photos in iPhoto and use the command "file > export". In the export Panel set 'gender' to the 'Original '.

    Then import the photos exported in the Photos app.  Pictures of launch and use "file > import".

  • understand the flow of photos from iPhoto library photos vs vs

    I just transfer a bunch of photos from an external hard drive in my iPhoto library.  I created several new Albums right here.  The problem is that my photos are not displayed when I click on the Photos icon on my menu bar.  Also new albums and photos will appear not on my iPad via the photo stream.  I don't understand how the 3things: I picture library, photos, photo stream, work-sharing app.  How to do all of my albums (and the photos in these albums) duplicate in all (or appear to) all my devices?

    Migrating from iPhoto to a Photos library library affects only the photos in the iPhoto library in time. Photos and albums added to the iPhoto library after that will be in the iPhoto library unless you also import the photos into your photo library and set and fill albums.

    Albums are not spread through my photo stream, only by iCloud photo library.

    The new model is of approximately:

    * Use only the Photos app and the library of Photos on your Mac (s). After the initial migration, ignore iPhoto and its library.

    * Use iCloud photo library as the repository ignoring my photo stream unless you have devices that don't support icloud photo library (for most older iPods). You may need to increase your storage plan iCloud to organize all your photos and videos.

    * Use the Photos app on your iPhone (s) and iPad (s) with iCloud as library active. Again, my photo stream is necessary only if you have devices that don't support icloud photo library. You can use the option "optimize storage' to save the storage space on your iPhone (s) and iPad (s).

  • Transfer videos from iPad to PC (Win7)

    Recently, I had a pretty catastrophic HARD drive failure. Fortunately, I was able to recover most of my data, with the exception of a number of videos that have been in my folder of iTunes - video of my cousin sing, my recently deceased dog, have a wonderful time in the snow, etc.

    I discovered that all those missing videos have been loaded in my iPad 1 Air (128GB, ongoing enforcement 8.1 because I dare not updated and risk losing the videos) in the videos section of my videos App, of course it's new exciting.

    My problem is that I can't transfer files from my iPad to my computer so that I can have backups that are appropriate to them. They are not in the "Photos" application, they are all in 'Videos' - where TV shows and movies are usually kept. If it was as simple as

    Not only that I want to make backups of these videos, but they also have a capacity for about half my iPad, which I really wish rather to aid for other things.

    I'm running Windows 7 on my computer and don't have access to a Mac, would appreciate any help for Windows computers.

    Thanks in advance!

    You will need to get a 3rd party software to be installed on the computer to access these files. TouchCopy is one that works on the Windows platform. It is Wide Angle Software. What you may not be able to do away with the free version, but if they are as important as you say, a minor charge is worth. I used it before you access and save the voicemail messages and it will do several other tasks as well.
