After LR 3.5 upgrade "Import Photos" aborts LR

This week I upgraded to LR3.5. I am using Windows 7. Today when I started a new import, the screen went gray and LR aborted. Other import modes work fine including tethered importing. I can move a file into a LR catalog but it takes forever and I can't use any import features. I didn't find any discussions on this in the forum.Before the upgrade I imported several thousand photos. I am using an external disk. Any ideas

Hi,

After downloading yosemite, can't import photos from camera to iPhoto

After downloading Yosemite 10.10.1 to my Macbook Air, I can't import photos from camera to iPhoto. Had no problem before. It recognizes camera and says loading, but it never does load photos.

That's the latest version.

After using Photostream, I cannot import photos taken by itouch when photostream is off

Before having photostream, I import photo to mac from ipod using iphoto. But after updated photostream, ipod nolonger apprear in iphoto!
Then all photos that is not uploaded into photostream cannot be imported to mac. For PC it may probably be done in the folders, but for mac, no way.
So do I only have one choice: to send them one by one by email? Thanks.

Hye zhwilla, mabey you should sign out of icloud on the devices selected. then turn back on.
Also something to remember, iPhoto automatically downloads photos to events called photostream dec. 2011, etc. so when you do try to copy photos, iPhoto will say it already has downloaded them. Also make sure itunes is running. I assume you have everything updated.

After update, iPhoto won't import photos

I've updated my computer with the latest OS X 10.7 and iPhoto updates. Now, whenever I try to import photos, either directly from a camera or from my hard drive, iPhoto crashes. When I relaunch, I get a message that says that a photo has been found in the iPhoto library that has not been imported, would I like to import it. When I click yes it crashes again. If I choose not to import the program comes up and I can manipulate and export photos, send to mail, etc. Any ideas?

Have a read of this thread:
RAW files suddenly show up as "not supported" (Aperture 3.5.1, OS X 10.10)
It explains how to delete the Camera Raw bundle, and then reinstall it. This has worked for other folks with Raw issues.

HT204570 Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable. I the error message from iPhotos after the so called upgrade to Photos which left me with a blank screen

Photos upgrade a disaster. No images appear in Photos. Able to re-establish all images in iPhoto only to have the app crash after uploading new photos from iPhone. Impossible to reload photo library as it needs 161 GB of space. The non functioning Photos library is 107 GB and the original iPhotos library from which it was created is 118 GB. I only have 146 GB available on this 1 TB drive but I am reluctant to trash Photos library in case iPhotos is truly damaged.

And your question is?

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.

Can't import photos after upgrade to Tiger 10.4.8

After upgrading from Panther to Tiger I can no longer import photos to iPhoto 4 from my camera. I get error messages that say "Unreadable files: 240. The following files could not be imported (they may be unrecognized file type or the file may not contain valid data). When I go to the directory they are located in, I see a bunch of JPG files, but when I try to open them I get a message from Preview saying it may be corrup or a file format Preview doesn't recognize.
I can view the photos that were in iPhoto prior to the OS upgrade without any problem.

Hi, hope I've caught this discussion before it's ended.
Been getting "Unreadable files. The following files could not be imported (they may be unrecognized file type or the file may not contain valid data" ... but then ...
Was having problems with my hard drive and was about to back up my iPhoto Library when I checked the folder size with 'Apple i' and the 'lock' option was ticked. I definitely didn't option it. I've added images to iPhoto with this option unchecked and they've all gone in fine. Fantastic.
I too think my problems started after Tiger upgrade back last Autumn, loaded some pics in iPhoto at that time, deleted from camera and went back to iPhoto - none there!
Try this option, hope it works for someone else.

Cant import photos from EOS400D after upgrading on Lightroom 1.2

Hi,
After I upgrade my Lightroom to version 1.2 I cant import photos from my Canon EOS 400D.
If I go File Import from device... this option is grayed and cant be chose.
If I click on Import button on Library panel, window with EOD 400D button shows but after I click on it, message No photos were found to import shows.
Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Richard,
I've checked my Preferences. On Import tab checkbox beside Treat JPEG files next to raw files as separate photoswas unchecked. If checked result is same, Lightroom imports only jpeg's.
Any other suggestion?
Thanks,

After upgrade to IOS8 can't import photos from Aperture

I upgraded to IOS8, reset my iPad to factory settings and reinstalled all my apps from scratch.
When go into iTunes and I select to import photos from Aperture on my Mac it hangs.
I have an old iPhoto library on my Mac and if I select photos from that it works.
I have switched off everything to do with iCloud after seeing some posts that this might be causing the problem, but not a solution for me.
(I have over 28,000 photos in my Aperture library).

Did you turn on iCloud Photo Library? I suspect it may remove the ability to sync photos and videos between Macs and iOS devices.

I can't import photos from iphone4 to Aperture after Yosemite upgrade, aperture is up to date

Aperture stopped recognizing my IPhone4 when I try to import photos. This happened after I upgraded to Yosemite. My phone does show up in ITunes, and I have tried unlocking phone and shutting it off/on. My Aperture is up to date.

I went to Yosemite help page, and found an answer to another problem I was having after OS X upgrade. I was seeing duplicate iMacs under devices (I was checking to see if my phone showed up which it didn't). The fix for that problem took care of the problem I was having with the iPhone import into Aperture.
This leads me to believe the problem was due to the upgrade and some bugs that are still there. Now it's working fine.
Thank again for you help.

If you are having problems we need to know what versions of iPhoto and the OS you have, exactly what you are doing, what happens, what doesn't, what error messages you get, what has recently changed and any thing else that might help

Has anybody lost imported photos after upgrading to Lion? (iphoto11)

Has anybody lost imported photos after upgrading to Lion? (iphoto11)

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Imported Photo colors are purplish/pink/red after upgrade to 3.4

I've recently upgraded to LR 3.4 on Windows. After the upgrade, all photos that I view (new photos and photos taken prior to the upgrade) appear to have a purplish/pink/red tint. If I export the RAW file to a JPG and view it outside of LR, it appears normal. The photos appear like this in at least the library and develop windows. Why is this and how do I fix it? A search of the LR FAQ's didn't yield anything useful.
I didn't change any develop settings, I didn't change any import options, and I didn't apply any auto filters (that I know of). I've tried upgrading to 3.4.1 to fix this issue, but that didn't solve it.
Please note I'm a relative novice with both lightroom and color management, so please don't assume I have prior knowledge when suggesting a fix for this issue!
Thank you in advance,

I got it working myself
Maybe others are dealing with the same problem, so here is what I did:
At Corel's support website I found no information about similar problems, just a description how to set back the current workspace to factory defaults.
This is done by clicking at the program icon to start the software and then holding down the shift key immediately after clicking. Then a message box opens asking for confirmation.
Although I had done some custom settings to the workspace I had nothing to lose and gave it a try. Voila
Not sure what the reason behind is; I think that there are old configuration files existing or settings got mixed up for whatever reason.
Before I did so, I renamed the matching *.plist file at my user's library/preferences folder to *.plist.old - but this did not bring any improvement (in fact, even no new plist file became created).

Cannot import photos from iphone to iphoto after ios6 upgrade

I upgraded to IOS6 a few days ago. Now iphoto does not start up automatically when I attach my phone. When I open the app, my phone is not recognized and the "import photos" button is no where to be found.
I've tried checking off photostream, unchecking photostream; changing the preferences to image capture; rebooting my phone. I really need to get these photos off of my phone as it is full. Please help!!!
Thanks!

Yes, I did solved the problem. It was not with iPhoto but with the iTunes. Once I delete my phone profile all worked. I did not write the steps down but if you do it please post it here.
Cheers
