How to Put Dropbox Pictures on Shutterfly: A Step-by-Step Guide
Are you looking to transfer your Dropbox photos to Shutterfly for printing or sharing? It’s a straightforward process that can be completed in a few simple steps. Follow this guide to ensure a seamless transition of your images from Dropbox to Shutterfly.
Step 1: Log in to Your Dropbox Account
Before you begin, make sure you have access to your Dropbox account. Open your web browser and navigate to dropbox.com. Enter your email address and password to log in.
Step 2: Select the Photos You Want to Transfer
Once logged in, you’ll see a list of your Dropbox folders and files. Navigate to the folder where your photos are stored. You can use the search bar at the top to quickly find specific photos or folders.
Click on the first photo you want to transfer, then hold down the Shift key and click on the last photo in the sequence. This will select all the photos in between as well. If you want to select multiple non-adjacent photos, hold down the Ctrl key (or Command key on a Mac) and click on each photo individually.
Step 3: Copy the Selected Photos
With the photos selected, right-click on them and choose “Copy” from the context menu. Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+C (or Command+C on a Mac) to copy the selected photos.
Step 4: Log in to Your Shutterfly Account
Open a new tab in your web browser and navigate to shutterfly.com. Click on “Sign In” in the top-right corner and enter your email address and password to log in to your Shutterfly account.
Step 5: Create a New Album
After logging in, you’ll be taken to your Shutterfly dashboard. Click on the “Albums” tab on the left-hand side of the screen. Then, click on the “Create New Album” button to start a new album.
Enter a name for your album and choose a cover photo if desired. Click “Create” to create the new album.
Step 6: Paste the Photos into Your Shutterfly Album
Return to the tab with your Dropbox account open. Right-click on the first photo you copied and choose “Paste” from the context menu. Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+V (or Command+V on a Mac) to paste the photos.
Repeat this step for each photo you want to transfer. The photos will be added to your Shutterfly album in the order they were pasted.
Step 7: Adjust the Photo Settings (Optional)
Once all the photos are in your Shutterfly album, you can adjust the settings to your preference. Click on each photo to view its options. You can rotate, crop, or apply filters to the photos as needed.
Step 8: Share or Order Prints
After you’ve added and adjusted your photos, you can share your Shutterfly album with friends and family or order prints. To share, click on the “Share” button in the top-right corner of the album and choose your preferred sharing method.
To order prints, click on the “Order Prints” button in the top-right corner of the album. Select the print size, quantity, and other options, then proceed to checkout.
Step 9: Save and Backup Your Shutterfly Album
Once you’re done sharing or ordering prints, it’s a good idea to save and backup your Shutterfly album. Click on the “Save” button in the top-right corner of the album to save it to your Shutterfly account.
Additionally, you can download a copy of your album to your computer by clicking on the “Download” button in the top-right corner of the album. This will ensure that you have a local backup of your photos.
By following these steps, you can easily transfer your Dropbox photos to Shutterfly for printing or sharing. Enjoy your new Shutterfly album!
