Import photos and videos from Facebook straight to your Library January 27th, 2014 / Comments: 0 In “End the media clutter” we gave you a preview of our expanded universal import capability. So now we thought it would be helpful to walk you through just how easy it is to import all of your media from around the web. With our new web uploader, you can record from your webcam, import photos and videos from your computer and also from a whole slew of other devices, sites, and social networks. Import media from Facebook, Google Drive, Instagram, Gmail, Picasa, Dropbox, and Flickr. One of our favorite places to upload from is Facebook. When you connect the uploader to your Facebook not only does it pull in photos from your albums, but any photo you are tagged in is also accessible. After logging into your Library, click Upload Media to launch the web uploader. From this, menu you can choose where to import photos and videos from. Select Facebook and connect by clicking Connect to Facebook This will launch Facebook in another tab of your browser, you will be prompted to allow Filepicker.io to recieve access to your Facebook content. Filepicker or Pixorial will never post on your behalf without your permission. Next, you’ll be asked if Filepicker can post privately to Facebook for you. Select Allow or Skip to continue. Once you have completed that you will be redirected back to the uploader in the Library which will now be full of you photos! Select the photos you would like to add to your library, after a bit of processing they will be ready for editing, sorting or resharing. The easiest thing to do once you’ve brought in pictures from multiple places, is to sort them into Albums. All Albums are easily shareable and once you send them to friends they can add their own content!
