Good evening...I have taken photos of a lot of recipes and house photos on my phone and uploaded them to IPhoto. I would like to now upload or export or sync them all into evernote into a Recipe or Real Estate notebook. Any idea how to do that without having to individually email each one?

Thanks!

If you can export the iPhoto images to individual files, you can then import each image file into Evernote using an AppleScript.
See Venitrope.com Applescript Solution to Import Files to setup a Mac Evernote Import folder.

Hi and welcome to the forum! I export photos from iPhoto to Evernote by simply selecting an event on iPhoto and dragging and dropping the photos into a notebook.

I've attached a screenshot of me exporting the album "misc." into my Evernote notebook "iPhoto test". Each photo goes into Evernote as a separate note. Hope this helps! :)

Hmmmm.. I'm not sure what it could be. I'm using the latest version of both Evernote and iPhoto- maybe try updating both to see if that helps? I'm also using the Evernote desktop client on my Mac. Not sure if that makes a difference.

Other that, I'm really not sure what it could be.. it has worked for me multiple times :/

Drag and drop also works directly into a note, even with multiple items. So if you want one note that contains a number of pictures (for example, all in an event), create a new note, select all pictures, and drag and drop.

I try it and with a big album it won't work. I think because i have not premium
With a small album it works 6 new notes with 1 photo in every note

Even then the files are big 500 Kb per files same size as the photo orginal
Total 3Mb

I personal did't diffrent:
Iphoto > Album > Select all photo's > Print > Contact sheet > Edit > set coloms > print > Save as PDF >
PDF is now 1,3 Mb

I open the pdf and save it with 150 dpi file is now 188KB
If you zoom in you see the diffrent, but for quick search it works perfect for me

A different work flow.
I have a folder with a workflow that make all the pictures in that folder smaller to max 300px Then I move all the picture to evernote in one note for 1 album
Location of the original files in the first line of the note

Orginal picture folder 57 Mb after resize 579 Kb, perfect for quick looking
