I just got an iMac in Oct so bear with me...I am still learning. I want to know if there is a way to view photos on an external hard drive that is hooked up to my mac. I backed up all my photos to an external hard drive but don't necessarily want to transfer all of them to my mac. I can't seem to figure out how to view those photos. It's so easy with a PC.
Got a tip for us?

It's easy on a Mac, too. Just locate the picture(s) you want to see on the external drive and double-click them.
Or instead of double clicking them use Quick Look (hitting the Space Bar while the image file is selected).
