Can't import photos now

My son received a new camera for Christmas. After successfully importing photos from his camera (an HP), I can no longer import photos from my camera (Cannon Powershot A85) that previously worked fine. When I click the import button it does not recognize the camera. Yesterday I was able to turn the camera on, when plugged into the computer, and trigger Image Capture, but today I cannot even make Image Capture work. HP software was loaded onto my computer so I could access the users manual, but I have since deleted the software. I also tried rebuilding my iPhoto library and was successful, but I am still unable to import photos from my camera (and can still import photos from my son't camera). Any suggestions?
iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   iPhoto 4.0.3

I have the same problem. I use a Fujifilm F30 and a Canon Powershot A530. Both were recogniced bij iPhoto and I could import. Suddenly it didn't work anymore. It isn't even recogniced in the finder. Even a different user account can't see the cameras. If I try to import the SD card from the sony through a card reader I have no problems. But sinds I don't have a cardreader for the XD card I need this to work. If I switch on the option to automatically start iPhoto when the camera is connected, iPhoto does start but can't see the camera. Another mac mini I tried had no problems with the camera's and my ipod doesn't have either (I use the camera connector) Does anyone know what is going on? I am running out of options.

  • Got radio, but can't import photos now

    I have a camera connector which has been importing my photos with no problems until I updated the software for the ipod. I did that so I could use the ipod radio remote I've just bought. The radio remote works fine, but now when I try to use the camera connector I just get a message that "there is no card connected", or something like that.
    I'd really appreciate some help with this because I'm flying to Europe in a week and I want to store my photos on my ipod.

    Yeah I have been using the camera connector in exactly the same way and I do have pictures on the card. It seems that I can use either the camera connector or the radio, but not both. Hopefully there will be another update which fixes this problem?

  • HT202731 I downloaded Yosemite now I can't import photos to IPhoto.

    I downloaded Yosemite now I can't import photos to I Photo with my Canon A40 camera. Does anyone have this problem?

    I always use my SD card reader in my Mac.  Seems to be more reliable and easier to use.  Do you have iPhoto in preferences set to import when camera is attached?

  • I can not import photos from PC to my Ipad, it says iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPad

    I can not import photos from my PC to the iPad, it says  iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPad

    YES Terence!  Thank you. Exporting allowed me to move my photos from iPhoto into the Burn Folder on my desktop.   But that doesn't explain why I'm having to go that route now.   Have I done something (accidentally changed some setting) on my computer that will not allow me to just click and drag anymore?   I really liked the convenience of the click and drag option. 
    I don't have the time tonight to export and burn a lot of CD/DVDs.  I'll try that tomorrow and make sure my photos are moving properly.  I also need to export photos to my external hard drive to make sure that route is working. 
    Wouldn't you know that my Apple Care Plan runs out this Wednesday?!  I need to make sure everything is working properly before that expires. 
    Thank you so much for your help.   I really, really appreciate it.

  • Can't import photos from my iPhone into iLife '08 after upgrade to 10.5.1

    I can't import photos from my iPhone into iLife '08 anymore after upgrade to 10.5.1.
    It used to work great...now this. Sad, sad, sad I am.
    I tried the "FIX" of refreshing phone and sync history, but it DID NOT WORK for me. HELP!
    Please help, somebody.

    I have the exact same issue, but with a standard IMAP account and SMTP.  My iPhone can send out, using the EXACT same settings, from the exact same WiFi connection...but the 10.8 MacBook cannot send at all.  The only account I can send out on is my iCloud account. 
    I have also tried all the steps above...no luck.
    I have also turned off all network filters and firewalls...no luck.  (And as I said above, my iPhone is on the exact same WiFi connection and using the exact same settings, and it can send fine.)
    Other messages I've found via Google have suggested simply forcing the SMTP server to use Port 25, but that didn't work for me either.

  • How can i import photos from ipad to itunes, how can i import photos from ipad to itunes

    How can I import photos from my iPad to iTunes on my Windows Vista PC?

    I'm puzzled!  I had received a set of jpg files through an e-mail on my ipad.  For reasons unknown to me, they got saved to my (only) album, that had an irrelevant name.  When I tried to change the name of the album, I received a message that I could only change the name of the album after importing them to the computer where (as I recall) iTunes resided.  After much huffing and puffing, I managed to import the photos, to the Windows computer, but they wound up in a Windows Photo Gallery directory, where I put them into an appropriately named album.  Now, how do I get them back to the iPad.  (I also learned, I think, that iTunes will have nothing to do with the photos.

  • I can't import photos in Lightroom 3.4.

    I can't import photos in Lightroom 3.4. No problems with Lightroom 3.3, seems to be due to the 3.4 update.
    Connected Nikon D80 directly to laptop (MacBook Pro 2.53 GHz Intel Core i5). Upon import (RAW) get error message "The following files were not imported because they could not be read." Previews show up OK. I'm importing to an Iomega external HD with 321 GB available, and "Make a Second Copy To" a Maxtor external HD with 300 GB available.
    Also tried using a SanDisk card reader (ImageMate SDDR-99 V3) with same results.
    I've tried 3 different SD cards: Kingston 2GB, PNY 4GB, and Lexar 2GB, all with same results.
    I've tried importing JPG photos from Nikon Coolpix S6000, with same results.
    I've even copied JPG files to laptop HD, and tried importing that way. Get same error message.
    I've optimized the catalog, and still won't work. (Catalog contains 14,422 images.)
    JPGs import fine into iPhoto on another computer (Mac G4).
    Also tried different USB ports on laptop, with same results.
    Any suggestions...

    Problem resolved...Ran disk repair on Iomega HD. Disk Utility found and repaired problems. Uploads to Lightroom now function as normal.

  • I can't import photos from a card, file or anything.  I get "could not copy a file to the requested location"..  This has never happened before.

    I can't import photos from a card, file or anything.  I get "could not copy a file to the requested location".  I have never had this happen before.  I use a MacBook Pro

    I also have the exact same issue.  New IMac, installed LR, imported approximately 900 photos no problem, across the network from a Windows PC.   The import stopped when the network connection was lost.   Now I cannot import for the same reason "could not copy a file to the requested location".  I have plenty of disk space and i have permission to the needed folders.   I cannot even import from a folder already on the IMac.   

  • Can't import photos from my iPhone to iPhoto.

    Usually once I connected my iPhone, iPhoto is automatically opened and all the pictures can be imported. However, now the pictures won't show in iPhoto anymore. Can anyone help? Thanks.

    Same problem here: upgraded from 4.3.x to iOS 5.1 (iPhone 3GS), now I can't import photos taken on iPhone. Neither with iPhoto nor with Lightroom - they both do see the connected iPhone tough. However they both claim that there are 0 photos found.
    That's on OS X 10.6.8, iPhoto '11 (latest v 9.2.3), iTunes 10 (10.6.1) - or in other words: all updates installed. However I remember a quick test with the iPhone 4 from my girlfriend also found no photos on her device (also iOS 5.1) (so it can't be a 3GS issue only).
    I do have "sync over WiFi" enabled, but all iCloud services are turned OFF.
    I am pretty sure it must be the fault of iOS 5.1. Off course the phones were unlocked at the time of import. Also re-connecting the USB cable did not show any success. Also made sure that no sync was going on during the photo import attempt.

  • I can't import photos from an external hard drive to aperture

    . Nothing shows up after I select the hard drive in aperture. I can however import photos to iPhoto with this same hard drive. Why is this happening. I have been importing from this hard drive to aperture for a long time now and only had this issue today. I have restarted computer, unplugged harddrive. Any thoughts?

    Don't touch that one !
    I was hoping that in addition to that there should be another device listed, namely the USB External HD you've got plugged into the USB port. It should show up something like this:

  • How can I import photos from photo stream to windows photo gallery? These photos are not on the camera roll on my iPad but are from another iPad on the same iCloud account.

    I work at a Learning Center that has 12 iPads on the same iTunes and iCloud account.  Each classroom uses an iPad assigned to their room to take photos.  Each of these photos then shows up in the Photo Stream in all 11 of the other iPads.  I have no trouble importing photos that are in the Camera Roll of any individual iPad, but I have not been able to import photos from the Photo Stream if the picture was not taken on the specific iPad I am using.  It is not feasible for me to collect all 12 iPads everyday to import everyones photos, so how can I use one "master" iPad that will let me import photos from the Photo Stream since it has all the photos that everyone has taken? 

    You downloaded an iCloud backup to your PC?  I assume you mean you downloaded your photo stream to your PC.  What you may not know is that photo stream only keeps your photos for 30 days.  After that, they are deleted from photo stream but not from any device that already has them (such as your phone).  When you enabled photo stream on your PC you only had access to photos from the last 30 days since the others are no longer there, even though they remain on your phone.
    To transfer these to your computer at this point you have two options:
    Save them to the camera roll on your phone (by opening the my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  (You can only import photos to your computer from the Camera Roll album.)  Then import them to your computer as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083; or
    Use an app like PhotoSync, which can wirelessly transfer photos from any album between your devices/computers, including the my photo stream album.
    In the future, always import your photos from your camera roll to your computer via USB before deleting them.  Don't rely on photo stream or your iCloud backup to save your photos.
