Hi Dan,
You asked: What would be the best way to get lots and lots of
pictures from my i mac to my new lap top. They wont all fit on to one
cd and I dont know where to find the file where all the photos are
stored to divide them to split them onto several cd's. the only thing
I have found is a file to copy an entire i photo library and that will
not fit onto one cd...
TK: If you had a DVD, you could copy them onto it instead of a CD.
The capacity of the DVD is huge in comparison. If that's not an
option, you can go into your home directory, expand the iPhoto Library
and then divide it up onto CDs that way. To do this process, follow
these instructions:
• Go to the Finder.
• Press cmd-shift-h to open your Home directory.
• Navigate to the Pictures folder and open it.
• Locate the item named iPhoto Library.
• Press VO-shift-m to bring up its Contextual menu.
• Choose "Show Package Contents".
This will expand the iPhoto Library so that you'll be able to see the
folders within that contain the jpeg images. You can then fill up
your CDs and burn them.
Later...
