Camera kit and iPhoto help

Is there a way to have picture and picture on the ipad? I just got the ipad usb connection kit and want to know if I can view it larger instantly without transferring the whole photo file to my ipad?

Not possible without an import.

  • IPad Camera Kit and Dell SX2210 LCD monitor

    My Dell SX2210 has a built in 3.2 megapixel camera built into the monitor. Any chance if I buy the iPad camera kit and plug it into my iPad the plug and play might work? I have read on forums that some users have success with this monitor's camera on MacBook Pros and Mac minis.
    Any idea if this setup might work?

    I am not sure but I think not.
    The camera connection kit seems to look for image files in a camera type directory structure.
    The monitor camera probably outputs a live video feed. Is this correct?

  • IOS 8 - Disentangling Camera Roll and Photostream - help!

    In iOS 8, Apple removed the “Camera Roll” and “Photostream” albums and collapsed them into a single stream of photos on the camera that can be accessed under “Collections”.  “Collections” also includes all other photos otherwise loaded onto the phone, e.g., via iPhoto. This new arrangement upsets several familiar ways in which I’ve been using my iPhone and its camera, and I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions for how to recapture a few simple functions.  (I have submitted Feedback on the elimination of the Camera Roll, and with this post I am looking for practical solutions to a series of new problems.)
    Question #1.  I maintained my Camera Roll as a reasonably-well curated set of maybe 300 photos & videos, taken on my phone, that I could pull up easily to show to people.  I would like to know if there is a way to restore that functionality in iOS 8.  “Recently added” does not go back far enough (one of my favorites was the very first photo I took with any iPhone, back in 2007); and “Collections” shows way too much – it includes everything in Photostream, as well as photos from Albums of scans, non-iPhone photos and other sources that I’ve synced to the phone with iPhoto.  Thousands of photos.  I also don’t care for the way in which Collections interrupts the thumbnails with date and location information.
    Question #2.  I kept Photostream turned on on my phone, because I liked the idea of automatically uploading photos to the cloud, particularly on trips when I was not in a position to download the photos directly to a computer for backup and safekeeping.  However, now that Apple has eliminated the distinction between “photos in my pocket” and “photos in the cloud”, it appears that whenever I want to delete a photo from my phone (e.g. to save space) I must also delete the corresponding Photostream copy.  Is there a way, with Photostream on, to delete local photos without also deleting the copy that has been uploaded to the cloud?
    Question #3.  I have a few old iOS devices that I let my kids use.  They like to take photos and screenshots.  Most of them are pretty stupid but once in a while they do something great. I’ve left Photostream on on those devices to see what they’re up to, and to capture the occasional gem.  This was fine, when “Photostream” was a separate Album that I could look at, or not, as I chose.  In iOS 8 however, all of their junk photos appear in “Collections” and are as much a part of my phone’s photo repository as the carefully-curated Camera Roll photos used to be.  Is there a way to keep Photostream photos out of my “Collection”?
    Question #4.  I suppose someone could write an app that does nothing but display photos that were captured by, and reside physically, on the device.  Perhaps someone already has, if anyone knows.  Of course I’d prefer to use the native app for this function, but I’d take the function over nativity if I had to choose.
    Question #5. Does anyone know (“know” – please no speculation, and nothing that an NDA forbids) how the iCloud Photo Library, which dropped back to beta in the final release of iOS 8, works? Does it provide the backup and safekeeping function of Photostream, along with the ability to view that set of photos separately?  If so then I could turn off Photostream and at least get rid of that clutter.
    Thanks for any and all help.  And by way of reminder - https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html .

    Here's one, eh, kludgy fix for Question #1.  I don't exactly recommend it - it can be pretty laborious - but in the end it seems to get me back to about where I started with my Camera Roll.
    Go into "Collections" and scroll back to about the date at which you expect to find your first native iPhone photo.  (I have many imported photos that predate iPhone, so I can't just look at the first ones.)  Tap through until you are looking at a single photo.  Look at the bottom.  If it displays a "Favorites" heart, it's physically on your iPhone (and as best I can tell, was taken by the device).  Tag it as a favorite.  Swipe to the next photo.  Skip if it shows no Favorites heart - that means it's not on your phone - and tag it if it does.
    At the end of this process (did I mention it's laborious?), you should have a Favorites album that matches the photos that were on your Camera Roll when you upgraded to iOS 8.

  • Weird issues between iPhone Camera Roll and iPhoto?!?!?

    I just noticed when opening Photos and then my Camera Roll of pics taken with my 3G that there is a large black irregular shape area covering the top 2 rows of pics and part of the third row as well. I have exited and returned to the app, shut down and restarted my iPhone and no change. If I tap in the black area (don't know what I'm tapping) it will bring up whatever photo is actually there, but there is no way to see it in the thumbnail preview screen because of the black overlay. If I connect the iPhone to my Macbook and open iPhoto, it seems to see that there are photos in my Camera Roll, but they are all blank and iPhoto thinks there are 32 photos there but there is not that many because I have deleted some of them :-O Clicking on a blank photo does not bring up the actual photo, just nothing happens.
    So, to try and remedy this I manually deleted all the photos from my Camera Roll on the iPhone, so there were NO PHOTOS in the Camera Roll and then did a sync with my MacBook. iPhoto still thinks there are 32 photos and they are all blank placeholders like before! I tried to "import all" just to see what would happen and 4 were readable and the rest were "unreadable files". I said to delete all the photos after importing but it still lists 32 photos there. Even when the iPhone is disconnected, the iPhone icon stays in iPhoto and I have to manually unmount it. So, there is total disconnect between what is actually on my Camera Roll on the iPhone and what is being seen by iPhoto. It's as though iPhoto is stuck in a particular point in time and can't get rid of some cache or memory of a previous iPhone Camera Roll state. Before updating to OS 3.0, whenever I unplugged the iPhone after a sync, the icon would disappear as a mounted drive in iPhoto so that has changed as well.
    I have no idea where to even begin trying to fix this problem. I'm using iPhoto 7.1.5 and not sure whether this is an iPhoto problem or iPhone problem or both?!?! Any feedback would be extremely appreciated!

    I'm having a similar issues. Every program on my Mac that is capable of acquiring images from a digital camera (iPhoto, Graphics Converter, Image Capture, etc.) thinks that my iPhone is mounted and that there are 77 pictures to download. It doesn't matter whether the phone is actually connected to the computer or not. I've even restored the iPhone to the factory state and it makes no difference. Thus, I believe the problem to be on the Mac itself. I don't know the details on how it works (could anyone enlighten me?) but I'm very surprised that multiple programs are having the same issue. Obviously, there is some layer that is between the actual device and the programs that use the device. That layer must be corrupted. But what is it, where is it, and how can I fix it?

  • Camera Kit and MIDI for iPad 2

    Hi,
    I purchased the Akai LPD8 MIDI controller. I've seen YouTube videos showing people using the camera connection kit and MIDI controller with their iPad. However, I heard that Apple made the camera connection kit unusable for MIDI devices after an update.
    I have the latest version of iOS. Will the camera connection kit still work with my iPad 2 and a MIDI controller?
    If not, is there something that will work?
    Thanks

    Yes, you can "preview" Word documents in Mail or DropBox and then use the "Open in" command (upper right corner; box with arrow) to open in Pages to save or edit. Not all apps will be available to "Open in" but Pages has very good integration from Mail and from DropBox. (Whereas I can't open a Word document from DropBox in Writings but I could, of course, copy the text of the Word document in DropBox and then create a document with that text in Writings.)
    The focus on apps necessary in the iPad IOS can be frustrating at first, but my advice is just to get a few apps and start working. Then you can tune your approach to what works best for you. I'd invest in Pages and also get the free DropBox app and play around. The reason most of what I do revolves around DropBox is because that provides constant syncing of documents in my DropBox folder between my iPad and my MacBook Pro.
    I also read, and annotate, a lot of PDFs  (again storing and syncing via a folder in DropBox) and there are lots of PDF readers out there, including the built in iBooks. I prefer PDF Expert because of its clean interface and robust annotation features, but GoodReader also has lots of fans.
    In the 3+ months I've had my iPad, I've gone from being joined at the hip to my MacBook Pro to doing a large portion of my work on my iPad.
    If you do plan on writing more than a short comment or email on your iPad, I'd also invest in an Apple Wireless keyboard. It's lightweight and portable and will increase your productivity.

  • How do I use Lightning Camera Kit and charge iPad at the same time?

    Well, that's the question. I don't like interrupting my creative work only to charge this device, I'd like to have a charger and any other external device working at the same time. If you know such product which has Lighning feed-through with a charger cable output please tell us.

    That's interesting. So after all they found an engineer in the company to design an adapter for them. I hope some 3rd part company like from China comes with a functioning USB (called "camera") adapter that does have the charger interface built-in.

  • Mavericks and iPhoto, help!

  • Camera RAW and iPhoto integration

    >The panel with the pop-up menu to set Camera RAW when opening a JPG or TIF file from an ordinary Finder Folder I appears to be completely bypassed, when when coming from iPhoto.

    I need this for teaching purposes.
    I run Leopard v10.5.6; iPhoto '08; PSE 6 (Mac) with ACR 5.2.
    By the way, I also run CS4 and I can do the above with CS4 easily, by setting the preferences in
    CS4.

    >But, why on Earth would iPhoto be remotely involved? Personally I don't even know anybody >who uses iPhoto, and, yes, I'm a Mac user.
    I use iPhoto for my >25,000 photo library/organization as well as sharing photo libraries with others on my home network. I use it just about every day. It is also my "gateway" to Photoshop CS3. I find a photo I want to edit/add to a collage/etc. and use iPhoto to launch Photoshop CS3. In addition, its seamless integration with the other iLife tools is perfect for what I need. I even use it with Apple's Aperture.
    >There's no "integration" of iPhoto with Photoshop or Photoshop Elements.
    Not sure which version you're using, but iPhoto 8 works just fine with both Photoshop CS3 and Photoshop Elements 6. For the most part that is how I start either app. In fact, with your instructions above, I am now able to open JPGs with Adobe Camera Raw. I only start Photoshop or Photoshop Elements if I am starting something from scratch.
    >All those applications or utilities you mention in #7 have nothing to do with Photoshop or its functions. They are irrelevant in this context.
    Actually #7, it is very relevant. That is what I mean by seamless integration with the other iLife tools. The only ones listed in #7 that I haven't used is iTunes and Garage Band. All of the others I have used.
    Hope this answers/addresses your question/comments.

  • External drive and iphoto help

    hi i was uploading pictures into iphoto witch is on my external drive and i accidentally unpluged the drive while it was uploading the files and now everything is screwed up this is the massage i get when i try and open iphoto from this drive The iPhoto Library is on a locked volume. Relaunch iPhoto when the volume has read/write accees or relaunch iPhoto with <option> key held down any ideas please help
    imac intel Mac OS X (10.4.4)

    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and point it at the Library on the external.
    If that doesn’t open then you have damaged the Library.
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    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.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • Why- I try to connect my Samsung PL 55 camera to my iPad 1 using the camera kit it tells me this accessory is not supported by iPad.   I have tried restarting etc but nothing works

    I got the camera kit and plug in my Samsung pl55 camera.  The iPad eventually says this accessory is not supported by iPad.    a matte camera asks me if ! want to connect the USB to a computer or a printer.   I select computer but by then it's too late and everything just sits and nothing happens. 

    Are you using Apple's iPad Camera Connection Kit?
    Have you plugged your Samsung PL55 into the kit as shown here:
    Are you trying to send JPEG images from the camera to the iPad?
    Your post has a portion that starts with " a matte".  I don't understand it.  Perhaps the beginning of the sentence got omitted.

  • HT201302 When I travel with my SLR I like to transfer all photos to the iPad so that they are more easily edited and viewed by others, using the camera kit.  Occasionally I would like to export photos - I have not found a way to do this.  Can you help?

    I occasionally have the need to export photos from the iPad to an SD card (photos that were imported using the camera kit). This is useful for e.g. to print photos while travelling.  So far I have not found this functionality anywhere, including in any apps available on iTunes.  Can anyone help?

    The camera connection kit can only be used to import photo/video files from a camera, SD card or USB flash drive. You can't import other types of files. You can't export any type of files using the camera connection kit.

  • IPad and Camera Kit

    I plan on getting the Apple "camera kit" for the iPad, so that I can upload photos and video from a camera while traveling.
    Apple says that you will be able to transfer photos AND video.
    But I had a question.
    I will have a Canon DSLR T2i(rebel) that shoots 1080p HD video as well as 720p as well as 640 x 480 video.
    I am also thinking of getting the smaller FLIP camcorders or the Kodak Zi8. They both shoot HD video, but the flip transfers via usb and the kodak has removable SD cards.
    Basically, does anybody know if you'll be able to transfer 1080p video clips to the ipad? Or at least 720p HD clips?
    Thanks for any and all help or advice concerning this question.
    Also...not a question, but I hope Apple releases a "lite" version of iLife(imovie/iweb/garageband) for the ipad, like they did with iwork.
    Peace out.

    I can't comment on 1080p but 720p videos from my Nikon D90 import and play on the iPad without a problem. RAW files and jpgs also import fine.
    I also have a flip video ultra HD that will connect to the iPad and I can copy the files to the iPad but I cannot view them on the iPad. So with regards to the Flip video camera, the iPad can only be used as a backup device.
    The weird thing is when I connect the flip video to the iPad, in the import screen, iphoto does show thumbnails for the individual clips. Perhaps, the flip video embeds a jpg thumbnail for sorting, preview, etc. or the ipads can view that file format but apple has decided not to include it in the OS.

  • I am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier

    Well I'll guess you're using iPhoto 11:
    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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.
