How do I export an elements organiser album to iPhoto or hard drive?

May 12, 2012 6:25 AM

I have created albums on my elements organizer using the brilliant 'search for duplicates' feature thereby sorting out all unwanted repeated photos.  I now would like to export these newly organized albums to either iphoto or hard drive from the elements organizer.  How do I do this?

    'File' when I am in elements organizer doesn't give me the option to File->Export->As New Files. (as per screen shot below)

    Oh ... Mac version ... nevermind, it's not there (a major omission, in my opinion)

     

    A Mac person will have to jump in and advise you.

    Thanks anyway, and yes it is a major omission if there is no alternative.

    I'm sure there's a way to do it, I just don't know as I don't have a Mac

    That is a stunning ommission if it is an ommission. I was just about to ask the same question. Did anyone else come back to you?

    It’s never a good idea to use both Organizer and iPhoto otherwise you will end up with file duplication on your hard drive. For a one-off batch use File >>Process Multiple Files and choose a new destination folder.

     

    It is possible to use iPhoto with PSE set up as your external editing app.

    I'm not using iPhoto. I've been using Lightroom but decided to try out Elements.
