Easiest way. Make a new folder on your desktop. Depending on the OS, use the keys Command N or Shift Command N for a new folder. Title the folder. The Apple key immediately to the left and right of the space bar is the Command Key.
Insert the CD into the tray. When it opens drag the folder or files on the CD to your newly-created desktop folder. Remove the CD. You may now move the photos to IPhoto or any other location of your own choosing and edit them, turn them into a slide show or do with them what you will.
Using the same technique you can also transfer files ( any files, not just photos) from a USB device.
If your CD tray does not work or cannot read the CD (wrong format, etc) you have to progress to more ingenious solutions. Worst case, the screen will state "disk unreadable by this computer." Possibly formatted for Windows or some unreadable DAT format. Then you will have to go back to the source and reformat the files to JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG or some format your Imac will recognize.
<p>The iPod Touch was the sister device to the iPhone, and
shares most features for running applications, playing music and videos and
photos showing. Like the iPhone, it relies on iTunes to sync your media library
and portable device and for photos, iTunes bind to a separate program for
administration of photos like iPhoto on a Mac or Adobe Photoshop Elements on
Windows. <br />
<p><br />
<p>1. Gather your photos in iPhoto or Photoshop Elements or, or
in a folder you want to copy them on your computer. Organize your photos in
this process makes it so much easier. If you rename your photo collection in
iPhoto or Photoshop Elements, it will sync and stay organized on your iPod
touch much easier. <br />
<p><br />
<p>2. Connect your iPod Touch to your computer via the USB
cable. <br />
<p><br />
<p>3. Open iTunes if it does not start automatically when you
connect your iPod to your computer. <br />
<p><br />
<p>4. Click the Photos tab in iTunes. In the top panel is a
drop-down menu where you are the source of the photos you want to sync select.
If you have iPhoto or Photoshop Elements installed, the default option. You can
then specify the name of collections of photos you want to copy to the iPod
Touch. If you do not have iPhoto or Photoshop Elements installed, you can
navigate to a folder of image files in it. <br />
<p><br />
<p>5. Click Apply. The photos are synced to the iPod Touch. <br />
The pros do it this way....they use a card reader to download to a folder they create on the desktop. From there, it's easy to send the pics to iPhoto.
When you get the popup from iPhoto don't click on any iPhoto buttons. Instead, click on command+tab and change to your Finder application (leaving iPhoto open in the background).
1) Create a new folder on your Desktop or in your Pictures folder. This is where you will copy your photo files.
2) Click on File, then New Finder window. Size these finder windows so you can see both of them at the same time. In the second window, go to your computer, and then to the drive that represents the memory card in your camera.
3) Drag and drop to copy the files from the camera's memory card Finder window to the new folder Finder window, dropping the files into the new folder on your computer's hard drive.
4) Use command+tab to change back to iPhoto. Cancel from the import warning window. In iPhoto click on File then Import to Library
5) In the import dialog tell iPhoto to move the photos (not to import them in their current location) so that iPhoto puts the photos in the same place it put your other photos when it imported them directly from the camera.
If you can't do all of these steps, tell me how far you got, and what happened.
