Can't complete or cancel photo download

My download of photos (from Canon Power Shot to iphoto version 8.1.2 424) is stuck halfway. Photos do not appear on my photo screen, but when I try to close out my iphoto, the following message appears - PLEASE WAIT FOR IMPORT TO COMPLETE. I can't find any way either to cancel or complete the import. Any Suggestions?

Use the Force Quit command under the Apple Menu.

To transfer your photos:
Transfer and erase the Camera Roll:
Connect the iPad to your computer and launch Image Capture, iPhoto, or Aperture.
Select your iPad in the Devices list and click "Import all".
When the import finishes, you can erase the contents of the Camera Roll, if you want. That would be the quickest way, but deleting it on the iPad in the Photos.app would be safer, but more work.
Delete photos and video clips you synced to your computer using iTunes: Connect your device to your computer and, in iTunes, deselect the photos and video clips you want to remove from your device. Click Apply, and click Sync.
Delete the Photo Stream contents:
How do I delete photos from My Photo Stream?
You can delete photos from your photo stream the same way you delete other photos from your iOS device or Mac. Just select the photos you want to remove, and tap the trash can icon or click Delete. On your PC, select the photos you want to remove from your photo stream, right-click, and then select delete. When you delete a photo from Photo Stream on one device, iCloud will automatically delete it from the Photo Stream album or view on your other devices. Learn more about deleting photos.

I can't complete any PDF downloads with Adobe Reader

I had Adobe Reader X with this problem then uninstalled X, then installed Adobe Reader XI and still I can't complete any PDF file downloads on Explorer with Windows 8 with out the explorer downloader document page crashing. Then some times when I have the option to "save to" the PDF doc to a download file I can open it from there. Most all existing PDF files open fine.

UPDATE!!!!
I had to fix it my self!!!
No more than just one person (thanks) tried to help me out!
I FIXED IT....
The problem was you could say a self conflict of Adobe reader. The software would not shut down any instances. It just would not quit, weather I had turned off my PC or otherwise. If I tried to run a instance of Adobe reader then failed, then tried again, the number of times I tried would still continue and would not stop when trying to "End Task" with the "Task Manager" in the "processes" section, then when I did succeeded inaddition to "Processes" was more in the "Details" section of "Task Manager" that would not stop!!
I down loaded "Acrobat Cleaner" and ran it immediately selecting Adobe Reader to be removed, after startup of my PC and it removed all installations.
I then proceeded to find all other "Adobe Reader" downloaded files and just dragged them to the Recycle bin.
That then gave me the chance to do a very clean install, and it worked with out faltering.
If you are having any major problems, do a clean out of Adobe Reader of all old versions and install the one that suits your computer.
Acrobat Reader now loads very fast, like I mean very fast!!

I have just upgraded to 10.6.7, and was browing the App. Store, I selected a product and it started to download, I cancelled the download, but it still registers in my purchases list, have I purchased that appl. and how can I cancel the purchase?

I have just upgraded to 10.6.7, and was browing the App. Store, I selected a product by mistake and it started to download, I cancelled the download, but it still registers in my purchases list, have I purchased that appl.? and how can I cancel the purchase in my purchases list?

I think that as soon as you click "Buy" and type in your details, the iTunes server is alerted that you have bought the item, even if it hasn't downloaded. Your "purchased" list is based on your account and not your computer so I'm afraid even if you haven't completed the download, you will be charged for it (but if you do now download it, you won't be charged again). This also means that you can't remove items from the purchased list.
Glad to be of help (I hope),

How can I cancel the download of a movie on iTunes?

How can I cancel the download of a movie on iTunes?

Once an item enters the download queue, the user cannot remove it. Either let it complete the download (easiest) or contact the iTunes Store customer support department through the Contact page (select the category and subcategory closest to the issue you're reporting and you'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) and ask them if they'll remove the item(s) from your queue for you.
Regards.

When ever I try to sync my iPad2 to itunes i can never completely "update and download" because after the entire process it says "Error: unable to complete update /download, network timed out"! Why? I have wi-fi in my house

I can't complete my iPad2 update and download, ever. It says my network timed out and I don't know why.

Temporarily turn off any firewall or anti-virus software you have on your PC while downloading.

It was changed in iOS 7. No idea if it was an intentional change or not.
Apple has not stated anything about it.

Can I prevent iPhoto 11 from downloading my Flickr photos?

I'm very pleased to see that uploading photos to Flicker via iPhoto 11 works an awful lot better than it did with iPhoto 9. I still don't like the fact that it's synced - I would prefer it to just upload - but I think I can live with it.
What I can't live with, is iPhoto downloading photos from Flickr that I uploaded by other means in the past (ie via the website and Uploadr on a Windows PC). I noticed it was doing this by hitting the right arrow key while viewing the last photo in the Photos view and all these random old photos (which I haven't imported into iPhoto yet) popped up. When I view the information for these photos all that displays is one sentence: "This photo was downloaded from your Flickr account." (None of the metadata I manually entered on Flickr has been downloaded with the image.)
How do I stop this from happening? I already have the photos iPhoto is downloading from Flickr elsewhere on my SSD. SSD space is valuable so I don't want duplicates of these photos.
I tried deleting one of the offending photos in iPhoto and it disappeared from Flickr. I tried moving the original files out of the iPhoto package file and they don't seem to disappear from Flickr but they show up in iPhoto as errors. Rebuilding the library does not clear these errors.
Only 2 of the 121 sets I uploaded to Flickr before I started using iPhoto have been downloaded so far and my guess is that's because I opened the sets in iPhoto (to see what would happen). Can anyone confirm if this is correct? If I avoid opening any more old Flickr sets in iPhoto will that avoid the photos being downloaded to my SSD?
Otherwise, if iPhoto is slowly but surely going to download all my old Flickr photos, I will end up with about 7-9GB of duplicated files which I absolutely do not want.
If I want to stop syncing because of this issue, is there a way to remove the conncetion between iPhoto 11 and Flickr without losing any photos from Flickr? Including both photos I have uploaded without iPhoto (2006-2012) and with iPhoto (2012 onwards).
Many many thanks in advance for your help!

Welp, evidently I just like the sound of my own voice so here's one last post on the topic.
This whole thing was seriously driving me crazy so here's what I've done:
Went to http://www.flickr.com/account/sharing/ ---> Account links ---> edit
Next to "iPhoto OS X" clicked "Remove permission?" & confirmed at the next step
My understanding is that because I've revoked permission on Flickr's side, iPhoto doesn't have the power to wipe anything from Flickr now. I think this means I can also remove the account on iPhotos's side, and maybe even those duplicate photos it downloaded, but I'm not brave enough to test either of those out yet.
Moving forward, I think I'm going to use Flickery (http://www.flickeryapp.com) to upload my photos to Flickr instead: this means I can edit everything in iPhoto, add all the titles/descriptions/tags in iPhoto, then just do a one way upload using Flickery instead of a two way sync from iPhoto.

After downloading the update I can't get the new photos app to appear in my photo browser when trying to add a photo in excel.

After I downloaded the new update the new photo app will not appear in my photo browser list when I try to insert a picture in my excel document. How can I add the new photo app to my browser list?

After the latest update to IPhoto 9.12 my pictures folder has changed to a package... How can I change Pictures back to a folder instead of a package?
If Preview and Mail’s media browser don’t work, Gary, can you export all the pictures from the new iPhoto package back to folders and use an earlier copy of iPhoto such as 8.1.2?
I have both versions on my system so it may be the Mail and Preview media browsers are not accessing the new iPhoto package. I thought they were the new version but maybe not; I see a single iPhoto Library icon and when I control-click on it it offers to show the package contents...

How can I get rid of photos that were downloaded from my computer?

How can I get rid of photos that were downloaded from my computer? I need to free up space on my iPad

Assuming that you synced the photos from iTunes - or whatever downloaded means - you must use iTunes again in order to remove the songs from the iPad. You have to uncheck the albums in the photos folder that you sync from in the Photos tab of iTunes and follow that with a sync.

That requirement is referring to the need for 2gB of RAM, not hard drive space.

CS4 Photo downloader - can I change the default path?

I'm using Bridge on Windows 7 x64. I have 2 hard drives exclusively for photographs. I never, ever store them in 'C:\Users\Mary\Pictures'. But when I download images with the Photo Downloader, C:\Users\Mary\Pictures' is the folder I'm offered. There's no box in which to paste a folder string - and it takes 9 clicks (including a couple in the scroll bar of the dialog box) to navigate to 'S:\Pictures, Initial\2 - Initial Negative Scans\2010 Initial Scans\[current subfolder]'. Is there any way of making the downloader believe that I always want to download to S:\Pictures, Initial\2 - Initial Negative Scans\2010 Initial Scans\....? I'm used to editing the Registry, but I can't find anything to edit in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Bridge CS4\Preferences. Thanks Mary

Curt You're right, it is something in Win 7.
I remembered that I have CS4 on my laptop, which is still running WinXP, and tried the Photo Downloader there. It had remembered the last folder I pointed it to, way back in September.
I then found a note telling myself what I had done to stop Bridge from using the c:\docs & settings\.....my pictures folder in XP. I'd used a utility that changes your default pictures, videos, etc., folders to whatever you want them to be.
I never keep anything in them, so I used the utility in Win 7 to change the default Pictures folder to 'S:\Z\ Pictures'. When I opened Bridge Photo Downloader, the 'location' folder was now 'S:\Z\ Pictures'. I navigated from there to 'S:\Pictures, Initial\2 - Initial Negative Scans\2010 Initial Scans', created a subfolder, uploaded some raw files from the card reader, closed Bridge, and rebooted.
When I re-opened Bridge and the Photo Downloader, it still pointed to my last used folder. Triumph!
Thanks for your help. I wouldn't have got there without it.
I'll look on the Windows 7 forum to find out whether there's a less drastic way of doing this. After all, some people may want to keep their C:\Users\[user]\Pictures folder for non-Photoshop pix. There should be a way of doing it.

Adobe Photo Downloader stopped working; can't import from a DVD?

I use Premiere Elements 4 (loaded with Adobe Photoshop Elements 6) on Windows Vista.
When I attempt to import video from a DVD (via Get Media > DVD import) I am unable to do so and the message
ADOBE PHOTO DOWNLOADER HAS STOPPED WORKING is produced by Windows.
I would value any help with this problem!
Many thanks, Don Varleyhall

Well, if it was produced in an Adobe program, then it should be 100% DVD-compliant. The menuing structure should not be an issue, as it can with other programs (Roxio and Nero come to mind), or from a DVR-DVD unit. I have never seen one of those that did a DVD-compliant disc.
This might point to something else going on.
As a test, grab, or create a short Project in PrE with Menus, and then Burn it to Disc. Test this back in PrE, and see if it behaves exactly the same way. If not, then something might be odd with your first disc, or there could be some other issue. If the Importer fails again, I'd think about doing a Repair Install.
If the test works, the first thing that I would do would be to Copy your DVD-Video. One can use the free burning utility, ImgBurn to do this, if they do not have Roxio, Nero or some other DVD Copy utility.
As a thought, there are a lot of other programs, that can get in the way of many operations in PrE. You might find some tips on setting up your computer for an editing session, in this ARTICLE. Then, test with your DVD again.
Good luck,
Hunt

Adobe Photo-Downloader, can't reactivate it after changing driveletter of CF-card

Hi all,
I have a problem with the reactivation of the Adobe Photo-Downloader and don't know how to solve it.
After I have changed the driveletter of the CF-Cardreader to drive B the downloader wouldn't recognice the insertion of a CF-Card. When I start it manualy there comes the message "not files found".
In the explorer I see the card and the files; under "computerverwaltung" -> "Datentraegerverwaltung" (sorry, I don't know the english words) I can also see the CF-Card.
It is the same, when I change the driveletter. What can I do to reactivate this ?
System: Windows XP pro
Lightroom 1.0
all windows updates
1 GB memory

That happened to me until I did an Import in LR, then the auto-load worked every time after that.

HT201317 I can't get photostreaming to stop downloading even tho I deleted photos and turned off. It's using my data minutes and I'm over my usage because its always downloading mode

I can't get photostreaming to stop downloading even tho I deleted all photos and turned off. It is always in downloading mode. It's using my data minutes

Okay, I figured it out.
I would clear the cache while the page was still being viewed in a window, and for some reason that didn't actually clear the cache. So that's the browser's being a good little browser, but it's annoying because it should clear everything.
iWeb also has a problem in that is tells pages to cache forever, so the browsers are only doing what they're told.
Close the window, clear the cache, good to go.
