Q: How do I mport my recovered pictures into iPhoto?
- Start PhotoRescue.
- Press "OK" to close the introductory message. Your drive should be automatically selected. Make sure it corresponds to your real photo media, by comparing their size.

You can now close PhotoRescue.
- Start iPhoto.
- Choose the "Import" option from the "File" menu.
- Now it's time to find the folder we just created in step 8. It should be located in the "Documents" folder.
- Select it and then press "Import". Just wait a few seconds, while iPhoto is loading your pictures. Once it has been finished, you should see your pictures.
