One of the most frequent questions about the migration process has been “What is going to happen with my photos? Are they going to my Dell?” The answer is YES!
This migration does provide you with a great opportunity to organize your photos and delete ones you don’t need anymore. I recommend putting your personal photos on a thumb drive and uploading them on your personal computer at home. The more pictures on your new Dell, the slower it will be. Therefore, start fresh and just bring the pictures that are essential for your daily instruction to your new school computer.
How to get your pictures onto your Dell??? There are several ways to do it, but I’ll tell you the easiest and most efficient.
1 – Open your iPhoto on your Mac
2 – Organize your pictures in Albums. This will help you delete the “old” ones.
3 – Once you have created all you Albums in iPhoto, plug in your thumb drive
4 – Drag your Albums onto your thumb drive
5 – Insert your thumb drive into you Dell
6 – On your dell, click Computer -> Libraries -> Pictures ->, My Photos -> and then drag your Albums from your thumb drive into this area.
Boom goes the dynamite! That’s it : – )
If you are looking for online sharing options, I recommend Picasa, Comemories, Mixbook, Flipsnack, and Shutterfly.
