How to Import Photos into iPhoto

For the next entries, I will be giving you a few helpful hints for importing, organizing, and editing your photos. These can be pictures you take with your digital camera or ones that you take using photo booth.
First, we need to get these beginning of the year shots off of your camera and onto your computer. Follow these easy steps to import your pictures.
1. Connect you digital camera to your laptop.
2. Launch iPhoto (This should happen automatically, but just in case…)
3. Type in a name for this set of pictures.
4. Add a description for the roll if you would like. This can help you find images later on.
5. Click the Import Button
It may prompt you to delete items from the camera. Only do this if you do not want to add these images to another device and you no longer want them on your memory card.
If you have images on a CD, you can insert your CD, wait for the CD image to appear on your desktop, and then drag the CD to the iPhoto icon in your dock.
If you have taken pictures in Photo Booth and you wish to add them to your iPhoto library, open Photo Booth and select the picture you would like to move. Next, click on the second icon from the left which is labeled “iPhoto”. Your Apple will then send it to your iPhoto Library.
Have fun snapping those pictures!
