Can't import JPEG image Unrecognized format

Can't import black and white JPEG to iPhoto. Says unrecognized format. I've imported many black and white JPEG images.

You didn't ask a question.  You must made some statements.
With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
where are the photos from?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?

  • Can't import from camera-unrecognized format

    I've suddenly and unexpectedly encountered a problem importing photos from my camera to iPhoto.
    When I connect my camera to my computer with a USB cable and iPhoto opens, it attempts to show me the thumbnails of the photos to import.  However, all it shows are empty rounded squares where the thumbnails should be.
    When I click one of the import buttons (selected or all), I get an error that says,
    Unreadable files: [number]
    The following file[s] could not be imported. (The file is in an unrecognized format.)
    [List of filenames.  All JPEG format.]
    I reformatted my camera card, took a picture, and tried again.  Same thing.

    Hi Cory,
    I am having the same problem with my Easy Share Z650 as well.   I would tend to agree it was due to a software update, since  it was working fine until after a recent update. If it was not due to a software update, then I would like to know what else the cause would be.
    Using the card reader built into my MBPro is a nice work-around, thanks Terence, for that tip.  However, I would prefer Apple fixed the problem so I can plug the camera in and not take out the card everytime.   I have heard comments that taking the card out all the time is harder on the camera than plugging in the cable and using USB.
    Regards,
    Hugh

  • Getting error message on import that says can't import jpeg files and won't import

    why can't I import from the camera that I always use with my iPhoto? On connecting the camera, error message says "can't import jpeg files."  None of my camera settings have changed.  Is it a problem of connectivity with old camera and new iPhoto '11?

    Not an old camera problem - most likely a memory card format problem - when was the last time you reformated yoru card?
    What camera do you have? Does image capture work?

  • Imported JPEG images are too light

    Imported JPEG images appear lighter/brighter than the scanned image.
    How can I make JPEG images appear with the correct lightness/brightness so they look like the actual book or magazine from which they were scanned?
    Using Apple's "Preview" to look at a JPEG- everything looks fine. But when a JPEG is imported into Motion 4.0.3 (and/or Final Cut Pro 7.0.3), the image appears lighter/brighter, as if it's washed out. To see if this is just the way a JPEG appears in Motion and not how the finished product will be, I exported a Motion project with one or more JPEGs as a QuickTime movie. The QuickTime movie does not bring the JPEG image(s) back to the "correct" lightness/brightness as the scanned image.
    Settings used:
    JPEG image, using a CanoScan LiDE 210 scanner, Color Space: RGB, Color Profile: sRGB IEC61966-2.1, current Monitor Gamma setting on the scanner is set to 1.80
    How can I make JPEG images appear in Motion (and Final Cut Pro) so they are true to the source from which they were scanned?

    Does it do the same thing when you use TIFFs?

  • Can't import still images into a project or create a podcast track

    I'd be grateful if anyone can explain why I can't import still images onto a track like you can easily do in garage band - in garage band you simply create a podcast track, then drag your photos onto it. However in logic, when I open the media browser i can get a photo folder up but it will not allow me to even look at the contents.
    Also, why is it that the manual for logic express has nothing about how to import a movie to produce a movie score - and yet garage band can even do this.
    Thanks for any advice.

    Have you tried "Working with Video" section of the manual? It's somewhere close to the end...
    Logic works with audio, not images. That's why you can't import a photo, because media browser is used to locate audio files, mostly. And sometimes video.
    I guess it works this way, you create a podcast with Logic, bounce it to mp3 or another compressed format. Then import it into GB and insert a photo.

  • When importing jpeg images I am getting 2 dupplicates need fix.

    When I import jpeg images from Sony a77 camera to my windows 7 computer I am getting 2 more dupplicates, the 2nd one has noise that looks like rectangles . Is there a fix for this? It is on elements 10.

    For Importing from Camera, I am guessing you are using 'From Card or card reader'. The media imported in this way is imported via Adobe Photodownloader. Can you please check if the option for 'Automatically fix red eyes' is unchecked? It would be good if you can paste the snapshot of the import dialog you are using. I am guessing some setting in import dialog is causing this issue.

  • I have a acrobat reader, can I import text delimited data format to a PDF Form so that it can auto fill into forms that was created? If not, what about FDF and XML data

    I have a acrobat reader, can I import text delimited data format to a PDF Form so that it can auto fill into forms that was created? If not, what about FDF and XML data

    Yes, you can do all of that via Tools - Forms - More Form Options - Import Data, if you have Acrobat.
    If you only have the free Reader then you can still do it, but it requires a script.

  • Can't import any images into lightroom 5

    Working away in my studio and suddenly I can't import any images into lightroom 5 (version5.5) for macbook pro os x 10.9.5

    Thank you for your response,
    ...my complete goofiness.
    I somehow managed to change my destination folder in Lightroom when importing images and could not copy to the "location" (or as the right panel indicates, the "destination").
    So adjusted my destination folder and am back to importing as usual.

  • On CS5, how can I recover jpeg images that were Batch Renamed prior to removal from my flashcard?

    On CS5, how can you recover JPEG images that were accidentally Batch Renamed prior to removal from a flash card? Is it a total lose or can they be saved somehow?

    If they were renamed on the flash card that is a poor practice.  If renamed in Bridge the old names can be recovered it you have checked "preserve original name in XMP".  If not you are out of luck.  But you still have the images correct?

  • Need Help - Can't Import ANY Images into LR4.4 Since OS Upgrade

    I can't import ANY images to LR 4.4 since upgrading my Mac OS to Mountain Lion 10.8.3 this past week. I downloaded LR5 Beta and all works well. I deleted LR5 Beta to see if it was conflicting with LR4.4 somehow and rebooted. Still no change. I can't import from my card reader (that says it can't even read the files) or from a location on my hard drive. I am beyond lost and frustrated.
    The error message for importing is "Could not copy a file to requested location."
    I need ideas. I am afraid to deleted and reinstall as I don't want to lose all my folders within. I looked all over the web and can't figure it out.
    If you need any other info, please let me know. I am hopeful that someone can help me.

    I added LR5 again and that works perfectly, but LR4 is still not working properly. I opened the preferences and catalog settings to compare...and they all look the same. I am beyond baffled. I don't plan on dropping more money for LR5, so I need LR4 to get back to working properly.

  • I've transferred photos to my ipod classic from my laptop. But how can I transfer JPEG images to ipod?

    I've transferred photos to my ipod classic from my laptop. But how can I transfer JPEG images to ipod?

    Hello, Blondet787. 
    JPEG photos are compatible with your device.  As long as these images are in the same folder as your pictures, then they should sync.  Below, I have included a couple articles that show you how to sync this data to your iPod.

    The article below is a little more detailed and designed more as a storage solution for media on your iPod Classic.

  • How to make Photoshop save Aperture imported JPEG images as JPEGs

    Recently, I upgraded from Photoshop CS 5 to CS 5.1.
    My point and shoot cameras record in JPEG format. Often, I'll import those photos into Aperture and then tweak them in Photoshop using the Edit in External Editor command. My preferences for the external editor in Aperture were set to 8-bit, Photoshop
    With Photoshop CS 5, I would edit the photo and choose Save and the edited photo would be saved back to Aperture as a new version, in a JPEG format.
    Now, using Photoshop CS 5.1, when the imported image from Aperture is converted into a PSD file and when I save back to Aperture, I end up with a PSD file.
    How can I revert to how it was before? JPEG image in Aperture, opened in external editor Photoshop as a JPEG, edited in Photoshop, then saved back to Aperture as a new version JPEG?
    (Though this question is approached in this forum, a solution to my question is never found as each dicussion ends up going off-topic from the original question)

    Any further ideas from anyone who's experienced trying to open a JPEG from Aperture in Photoshop as a JPEG?
    Like I said before, you cannot open a jpeg as a jpeg, the file must be decompressed to open in PS or in Aperture, and that has always been the case.
    I do not know how it used to work, but I tested and you are correct that with PS 12.1 and with Aperture 3.2.2 a JPEG sent to open in external editor (PS) is opened into your choice of lossless format and then goes back to Aperture in the lossless format you chose.
    IMO this is the way it should be, because every save into JPEG loses image data, so such saves should be limited to the final export, in this case when the image actually leaves Aperture. If the file was compressed as a JPEG  when leaving PS, decompressed and edited in Aperture, then compressed again to export as JPEG from Aperture, unnecessary additional image data loss would occur.
    It is always better to save the application of lossy compression until the very last step in a workflow because other usages (printing, for instance) may occur before applying the lossy compression.

  • Can't import CR2 images into PHotoshop Elements 9

    Please could someone help me with importing CR images from my Canon S120 camera...it just says doesn't recognise file type?

    You need camera raw 8.3 for your camera. It is only compatible with PSE12 or PSE13. Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.3
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.3
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:
