Camera kit: imported photos bug

Hi
I use to import all my photo to the ipad (hundreds), then once cleaned (I keep only the best) I plug to my computer and import from the ipad the few remaining
Since 1 or 2 weeks I have a big bug. All the photos I import go to "imported" but the "last imported" doesn't exist any more and I can't see them with my computer.
Worst, I can't even send them by email, I have the red cross (unexisting file) when I try.
I used to see the file system on my PC, but now I only see the picture I took via screen shot or with any application.
I restored backup many times, trying some different things, nothing changes. If I restore without using any backup, it works again, but I really don't want to lose all my applications settings.
Any idea ?

The iOS 4.2 update noticed the Photo Library was incorrect and proposed (successfully) to fix it.
I got every single picture back.

Iphoto 11 import problem. My camera is importing photos as 4x4. I see a single image in the preview window, but the import is 4x4. I just imported from a different camera and that one was OK. I can't find any setting to change to fix this problem

I am having a new problem in IPhoto'11. An older camera is importing photos as 4x4 (16 copies to a single image). In the preview pane the photos are fine (single copy per image). I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting but the problem repeats. Earlier I had a successful import from a different camera.
I can't find any settings to change this. Help!

Sorry but I do not understand your question
As to importing iPhoto simply copies the photos to the iPhoto llibrary - no changes of any sort are made

What update are you referring to? If you do a search for "Kodak" in the iPhoto community you'll find numerous posts regarding problems with Kodak cameras.
So far there's no known fix. The best workaround is to use a card reader with the memory card of the camera.

Connection of camera and importing photos

I seem to be having trouble importing photos .My Mac doent seem to want to recognise my camera(Fuji), which has been set to USB , so I cant import anything. Always worked fine before but since I erased my volume by mistake it doesnt work, Any ideas anyone?Thanks

Thanks for the reply.I only use a printer ,which I connect with Usb, and occasionally connect a camcorder via firewire. Neither have given me problems. I checked that link and my G5 has a serial number beginning with w8544 and was bought in November so would fall outside the mentioned period.Image capture preferences is also set on iPhoto . The only thing I can think of is some time ago I had some problmes downloading an office software( forget the name) which meant that when I clicked on the icon I got the applications alright but my desktop disappeared(all grey no icons) which meant I had to switch the mains off and restart.Stupidly in my frustration I did this 4 times. Anyway someone suggested I redownload the operating system and run a repair. Unfortunately I didnt follow the procedure too well and ended up erasing my volume so everything had to be redownloaded. So far everything has worked ok until this business with iPhoto.
Thanks

Computer does not recognise camera to import photos

I have always imported photos from this camera without any problems, on this computer.
Today it will not import/show up on the computer or iphoto.
I have nearly 10,000 photos in iphoto.
Have also tried image capture, which does not regognise the cam, please help
g4 Mac OS X (10.4.9) iphoto 5

I have a panasonic DMC-LX2.
I seem to have solved the problem.
The power save button was on '5 minutes', when I turned it off the images were able to be imported!
I have been deleting items from my library to cut down on any future problems.
I now have around 8,600 photos.
I am going to remove all to an external Lacie hardrive.
Thankyou so much for your help.
I have found it invaluable finding the site and will continue to search it!!!

Camera connection kit import photo limit of 16GB fixed?

Last fall there was a discussion of a limitation of 16GB on photos in the iPad.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12297747
I haven't been able to find out whether this was resolved with an iOS 4.x update or the problem persists. This might not be a limitation of the camera connector kit itself, but rather the photos app, either for total number or data size of photos, but regardless this is critical for me.
I was planning on a 64GB iPad 2 with the idea of being able to backup two cameras for at least 6 weeks of travel, which will easily go over the 16GB with raw imports and possibly with JPG imports as well.
My alternative would be a MacBook Air, but that's at least an extra pound and obviously has a different usability and cost profile.

I am also very interested in the answer to this question. Does the iPad 2 remove the iPad 1 photo limitations?
I have a 64GB iPad 2 on order, but I want to know if I can use the camera connection kit to backup a 32GB SDHC card filled with jpeg images on it from a point and shoot camera. Will the software and hardware be able to handle moving around 40-50GB of images to the platform, browse them on the iPad, and then ultimately move them from the iPad to my primary machine back home? If it works - great! If it crashes and doesn't work due to the volume and size of photos (14 mega pixel), I would like to know now so I can figure out a work-around storage solution.
Has anyone tried this with their iPad 2 yet??
Thanks in advance!

Lightroom mobile cannot import from the imported from camera kit.

Hi,
I am new to Lightroom mobile and trying to make a new collection from the camera kit.
1.I have imported photos using my camera kit from an sd card. (file format is raw)
2.There are the imported photos on my ipad visible.
3.On Lightroom mobile, I made a collection.
4.On the menu, I could see "Add From Camera Roll".
5.As I clicked "Add From Camera Roll", I can see "All Imported","Last Import" and "Magazine".
6.I could see one of the imported photos as the thumb nail photos of "All Imported" and "Last Import".
7.So, I clicked "All Imported", but it shows no photos with the massage "There are currently no photos to show".
8.I tried "Last Import", and it was same.
The question is :
Did I do something wrong or camera kit imported photos are not yet supported on Lightroom mobile?
Thank you for reading and
thank you in advance for the answerers.

For the version 1.0 we don't support the direct raw import on the device. Only jpg, png etc. - Guido

Can not import photos from camera to iPhoto

When I connect my camera to import photos, I get a message with a red stop sign that has an exclamation mark in the center saying, "The disk inserted was not readable by this computer". It then asks if I want to initialize, ignore, or eject the disk.
I have a Panasonic DMC-FX33 Lumix camera and it worked fine until I updated my Intel Mac Pro to Snow Leopard and iPhoto 09. It still works fine on my Intel laptop that has OSX 10.5.8 and iPhoto 6 (6.0.6).
Does anyone know the solution to this problem?

That is a bit odd.
_Import all the picture off the camera using the other computer (you can transfer them to the other computer later).
_Using the camera, reformat the media card
_Take a snap shot and test with the new computer again
__If it works there was something off in the formatting of the media card

IPhoto will no longer import photos from any of my another cameras.

iPhoto will no longer import photos from any of my another cameras after importing photos from my iTouch.

Does the camera mount to the desktop so you can look to see what is there? Have you tried Image capture (in your applications folder) to import the photos? Have you tried unchecking hide previously imported to see what that shows? Do you have a USB card reader to try? When did you last reformat your memory card?
If you can get the photo off the card using any method do so and tehn use yoru camera's format command to reformat the card

Sd photo import camera kit not working with iOS 8

I bought an Apple brand sd card photo import camera kit for the iPhone 5 (lightning cable) a couple years ago. It no longer works with iOS 8.x. I now have an iPhone 6 Plus and it still does not work. I get the error "This accessory is not supported by this iPhone." Since it is Apple brand it should work.
I have googled and searched the forums and found no leads on this. I was hoping with the latest 8.3 release it would be addressed. Does anyone know how to get this to work or is it an apple bug?

One article that might be helpful is here (suggesting you need HUB if it's drawing too much power):
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4106
@ rotorcraft:
It has to have a DCIM folder, but the directory after the DCIM folder, and the files themselves, have to follow DCF rules (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Designrule_for_Camera_Filesystem)..if it's the structure created by the camera it should be fine but if you change the folder to something other than DSC_xxxx and you change the image filename to something other than ABCD1234.whatever then it won't show up.
You can double check if the kit is being recognized at all in Settings -> About, then scroll to the bottom, it should say like Apple Card reader or something I forget. If it isn't, I would just reboot

Import photos from iPhone to iPad with Camera kit

I want to import photos and videos from a concert from my iPhone to my iPad. I took the photos and videos back in October and i had to do a full restore on my iPhone and stared new becuase when i restored from a back up the same issues where still there. So i imported them in iPhoto and imported them back on my iPhone. Now when i connect the iPad camera kit only my camera roll shows up. I transfered all my photos via Photo Stream but i would like the videos too. I know i can import them from iPhoto on my iPad but i want to be able to delete them right on the iPad, like i can if i import them via the camera connector. Is there any way I can do this? I can email them too but i want to have the best quallity. Please help me out!

You most likely can't, as such is not supported by Apple.

Importing photos to my ipad 2 on iOS 4.3.2 using camera connection kit causes photo app to crash

Importing photos to my ipad 2 on iOS 4.3.2 using camera connection kit causes photo app to crash. Tried importing photo from an iPhone 4/ Panasonic DMC-FX50 via USB and SD card but without success. However, importing video from a Flip Mino HD is ok. Can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong

Have you tried a reset by holding the power and home buttons for ten seconds until the apple appears?
Since it's multiple different import devices not working with the CCK, it appears to be on the iPad side...
If the reset doesn't help, try a restore from within iTunes on the computer.

Importing photos to my ipad via the camera connector kit How do I do this

I cannot import photos to my ipad via the camera connector kit The photo app does not say import anywhere How do I do this

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

Does the camera connection kit rename imported photos?

If I use the camera connection kit to transfer photos from the SD card used in my Sony RX-100 camera, will the photos, whose names always begin with "DSC_", be renamed according to the iOS covention "IMG_"?
This renaming *does* occur when I transfer photos to my iOS devices using Eye-Fi cards.

You can also use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).

HT4101 Get No Photos to Import on New Camera Kit New SD Card whcih took many before. What happened ?

New IPad 2; bought Apple Camera Kit; use SD Card - copied pictures on it then Imported to iPad Photos.
Then when I placed more on SD and try to import I get message "No New Photos to Add" Over and Over Again .
I tell you if this is about these pics/vids wwere not taken with i_device, Apple needs to be sued - again.
This company was borne out of Openness - I still remember. Now it appears to be closed except iTunes and dollars, but yo don;t get that when you buy the device. This IS highly proprietary !!!!

Friend, you say "The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces)" What if one has several hundred photos/files. Renameing them on my computer each 8 characters long adds an extension (1), (2), (3), and so on. For example, "JUNE2014(1). The connection kit won't read the photos due to the extra (1). How can I fix this without having to rename each of the hundreds of photos one by one?
Thank you, Cisco.
