TS1501 Image Capture does not launch when I connect my iPhone to my iMac and open iPhoto. No "Prefernces" is offered under Image Capture.  I cannot import photos to iPhoto.

Can't import photos from iPhone to iPhoto.  Image Capture does not launch when iPhone is connected to my iMac and iPhoto is open.  There is no "Preferences" option offered to click when in Image Capture.

This helped me. It is advice I found from a user named Carlosmara. First make sure iPhoto is closed and your iPhone is not connected. Then, as Carlosmara stated in his post,
"Go to your Library/preferences and delete the file com.apple.iPhoto.plist
IPhoto should recognized the iPhone again."
The file in question is under your user folder.
I then restarted my mac and plugged in the iPhone so that it would sync. After the sync, when I opened iPhoto, my iPhone was recognized and I could download the photos perfectly.
Hopefully this will help you as it helped me

  • Why my itunes does not launch when i connect my iphone to my mac air?

    why does my iTunes not open automatically when i connect my iphone to my Mac Air?

    OK ... I'm going to answer my own question.  I checked the box in iTunes PREFS "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" then went back to the DEVICES screen, iPhone summary, then unplugged the iPhone, and then back to iTunes PREFS and re-checked that box, then quit iTunes.  Then I plugged the iPhone back into the computer and Voila!  iTunes opens and syncs!  Why?  Who knows?
    This did NOT SOLVE the problem of wireless backup ... still not working ... whether iTunes is open or not.

  • I have downloaded and installed Lion. iTunes does not launch when I connect it to my mac.

    Hi.... i have downloaded and installed Lion. iTunes does not launch when I connect it to my mac. The correct box is ticked in 'Summary'. Any ideas? Thx. The same thing happens with my ipad.

    Hi there Bry,
    If you want to be able with out it syncing automatically, you can disable the automatic syncing feature following the instructions in the article below.

    and her itunes appears but i cannot find my itunes?

    Not really! Anyhow, what do you want to achieve. The only things you can access in your iPad outside of using iTunes are photos and videos. [Locate the iPad as any other external device through Windows Eplorer or Finder and dig through the folders.]
    You are fortunate that iTunes opens when you connect the iPad since many other users have difficulty in achieving this. It is from there that you can manage what you want synced to the iPad.

  • When i connect my iphone to my laptop and open itunes it shows my iphone has nothing on it(no music, no movies, etc...) then when i try to sync it says iphone is is full and can only put in a selected amount of songs

    when i connect my iphone to my laptop and open itunes it shows my iphone has nothing on it(no music, no movies, etc...) then when i try to sync it says iphone is is full and can only put in a selected amount of songs. Take in mind this is my first time to sync with this laptop(HP 15 ENVY) and as well my laptop is just brand new. just got it a week ago. so how do i fix this prob. and also when i open my itunes store and then view my account it says error occurred either debug it through Microsoft visual studio or close program. I tired copying all the .dll files to the itunes folder didn't help

    I cannot address the sync services error right now, but the error that you receive when you change from sync to manually manage music is what happens when you change. Once you change to manually manage music, it erases all of the music and will only put the music that you want on the phone, content that you manually drag over to it. See if this support document helps you out. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535

  • When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically

    When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically, even though I have the "open iTunes when this phone is connected" option checked. I'm on the latest Snow Leopard with iTunes 10.4 and use an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.4.  I think the problem began with the latest iTunes update.

    Found the answer in another discussion! Here's what worked:
    "I also had the same problem, iTunes 10.4 wouldn't launch when connecting iPhone 3GS.
    I unchecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected", restarted, launched iTunes and connected iPhone, rechecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected".  I was asked if I wanted to install iTunes helper and said yes.  All works again."

    You might try talking to the Apple store manager and see if you don't get more help...you might also contact Apple.com/support and see if they can give you a contact with the Apple Italy offices.
    Sounds like you have two levels of failure, the first shop that did the repair and broke a wire, and the second that has disabled something else and isn't helping.
    Apple officially refurbished equipment is usually good quality.  Surprising this has happened but you need to press on with complaints and try for resolution.

  • Sometimes when I connect my iPhone to my iMac to sync, it does not download all my selected photos to my iPhone

    Lately when I connect my iPhone or iPad to my iMac to update files, when I select events and photos to add, iTunes does not import all events or all photos from these events.  It tells me that 672 photos were not imported and to check iTunes.  (10 Where in iTunes do I check to find out what the problem is in not importing these images?  (2) Why is iTunes not importing all selected events from my photos or skipping (not importing) selected photos?

    i figured this out through other posts. simply turn your restrictions off and restart your phone. all apps should be open to you.

  • HT1277 Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my phone and iPad.  Can anyone help me with this?  Is there a setting I need to check?

    Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my iPhone and iPad. Can anyone help me with this?  Is there a setting that I need to check?

    All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
    Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
    Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
    Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then?

  • Why am I getting 2 images of each picture on iPhoto when I connect my iPhone to the iMac?

    I have been experiencing this problem for a while. However, it doesn't happen all the times.
    When I connect my iPhone (4s) to my iMac (running Yosemite), iPhoto pops up on screen, all the pictures from my iPhone displaying under "Devices" (i.e. the iPhone) are all duplicated, meaning each picture has 2 copies displaying. Therefore, I don't feel comfortable uploading them to the iMac, worrying that I may get 2 copies of everything taking up the memory.
    Appreciate if someone could help me resolve this problem. Thank you.

    Before you import unplug the iPhone and plug it back in.  That usually will remove the duplicate photos showing and import just one copy.

    Re: iphoto import creating and importing duplicates/ios8

    [DocumentBodyStart:82156be4-6d1a-4fe9-ac48-11557b932026]
    Thanks for the above input from all. I found, regardless of updates and whatnot... that if I were importing photos from my phone via the USB connection, I had to make sure that in iTunes both "Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected" and Sync this iPhone over wifi were UNCHECKED.
    Open iPhoto after those options in iTunes correspond, and finally the duplicate issue stopped.

  • What does iTunes backup when you connect your iPhone

    Hi,
    Can someone help me to understand the following two folders.
    I have been using the iPhone since when it first came out (2007) and syncing with iTunes, one thing I havent understand is what is iTunes actually backing up when you connect your iPhone, does the backup contains everything in your iPhone?
    In other words does the backup contains your iPhone apps, photos etc.?
    ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    The other folder I don't fully understand is the "Mobile Applications" folder, the reason for this question is because I relocated my default Media folder to an exteranl HD and when I sync my iPhone everything is fine I haven't had any problems but when I go and open this folder it has only a few apps but my iPhone has a lot more.
    Why the amount of apps in my "Mobile Applications" folder doesn't match the amount of apps on my iPhone?
    Can someone tell me what is this folder for?
    ...music/Media/Mobile Applications
    I'm currently running, iOS5
    Thanks a lot!
