I wish to save photos people post on the internet or in Facebook but I don't know how to. I am new to Mac computers. 🙂 Could someone please tell me how to do this and when they are saved, where can I find them? I don't see anything new in iPhoto or iCloud. 😟 Thank you to anyone who can help me with this.
iPhoto '11, iOS 7.1.2
When you save an image the default save location is Downloads. If you have not specified a different location, go to Finder > Downloads and see if the images are in there.
The how do I move them from downloads to iPhoto and put in a folder?
Also how do I specify a specific location so they will go to a folder in iPhoto? I click on a photo in Facebook and I used to right click and save to computer and it would allow me to pick a folder and it only saved the photo, nothing else. On Mac there is no right click and when I select copy it saves the entire page when all I wanted was the picture added to my album in iPhoto.
To move the images to iPhoto, open iPhoto and under File click New Album if that is where you want the images to reside, then drag and drop the images to that new album.
You don't say what Mac you are using, so three approaches to right click:
1. Open System Preferences, then Trackpad if you are using a MacBook Pro or Air and do not have a mouse, then under Point and Click check Secondary Click. That is the right click function:
2. Open System Preferences then Mouse if you are using an iMac or other desktop or have a mouse with a laptop, and under Point & Click check Secondary Click:
3. You can also gain the right click function by doing Control-click on either a mouse or trackpad if you do not want to turn on Secondary Click.
How do I save a picture off the internet and where is it stored?
