Can't download RAW photos from EOS30d

I have just started using a Canon EOS 30d, but am unable to download the RAW photos (.cr2) that I have taken. I have tried downloading direct from the camera, and also using a cardreader but no joy. Had no problems downloading RAW from a EOS 300d, but they were .crw files. I'm puzzled!!
Thanks in advance for your help.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What system version are you using. Tiger does support the EOS 30D as shown here.
You might have to convert them to dng files and use that format. You can get it here: Adobe DNG Converter for Macintosh. It might work on the new cr2 files.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Hi, I can't download my photos from my camera onto iPhoto!

Hi, I can't download my photos from my camera into iPhoto! A few months ago I bought iPhoto 9.1.1 (on it's own from iTunes) and it's been working fine till now. When I plug in the camera (Lumix LX3) the flying pizza starts and eventually I have to turn off the camera and force quit iPhoto. I don't think it can be a camera problem as I have successfully dowloaded same photos from same camera onto my laptop (with older version of iPhoto) and it works perfectly. Please help me - what am I doing wrong? Also, is there a limit to the amount of photos i can keep in iPhoto? I have quite a lot, and wonder if it simply is full up and cannot take any more? Thanks!

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

It's strongly recommended that one maintain a minimum of 10 GB of free space on the boot drive for optimal system and application performance. It sounds like you have way too little free space on your hard drive.

import photos using iPhoto on your mac.
plug your phone in, open iphoto if it doesn't open automatically.
your device should open up in iphoto so you can view your pictures. click import all and you can choose to delete from device after import or not.

How can I download my photos from iphoto to the external hard disk? thanks!

How can I download my photos from iphoto to the external hard disk? thanks!

This is our resident iPhoto guru, Terence Devlin's, advice:
You can move your iPhoto Library to an external disk or new Mac:
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

Can't download RAW photos to LR 3

I just purchased LR 3 and I've tried to download RAW pictures from my D80 for processing, but for some some reason the down load does'nt work.
Is DNG the same as RAW? Do I have to convert fron RAW to DNG? Help!!

The D80 RAW format has been supported by LR for several years, already, so you should not have to convert to DNG.
Without more details it is a little hard to say, but perhaps you’re having an issue with LR copying photos from the camera as part of the import process. This could be several things including USB-driers on your computer or USB-settings on your camera or even the camera firmware version. If your camera has more than one setting for connecting to a computer, try all the variations. Settings might be things like Mass Storage mode that makes the camera visible to the computer as a hard-drive or card-reader vs PTP mode which allows the camera to be controlled by the computer for taking pictures. You would want the hard-drive mode so LR can see it as a card-reader.
There could be issues with the cable you’re using, where having LR import from a card-reader is another possibility. Finally, you might have to just copy all the photos from the camera, either via USB cable, or using a card-reader, to your computer’s hard-drive and import from that folder.

My iphone was stolen, how can I download the photos from icloud to my pc?

Hi,
After my iphone got stolen last saturday I've tried to download the photos from the icloud to my pc and it didn't work.
What can I do to gat the photos and my whatsupp backup?

You cannot access Photo Stream from iCloud.com.
Photo Stream is a sync tool, not a backup solution.
You can get the last 30 days of photos from your Photo Stream by installing and signing into iCloud Contol Panel.
To get your Whatsapp and Camera Roll data you will need to restore it from your backup to another iOS device.

Can I download RAW Files from Canon5D (Mk1) in LR4 ?

I have heard reports that LR4 cannot be used to download files from Canon 5D (Mk1).....is this true ?
Also why do I have to upgrade from LR3.6 to LR4 just so I can download RAW files from Canon G1X camera?...... for one who obtains no income from photography the continual costly upgrades are ridiculous !!!

Some people seem to like making Adobe the villain in this dilemma/issue. You don't have to have any version of Lightroom to download or work on your raw files. Software was included with your camera that will do that. The problem is that the camera maker wants to sell cameras, not software. So they don't devote the time to making the software everything that it could be. And since most camera makers insist on using proprietary file formats, it imposes a hardship on Adobe and other third-party developers to keep up with the demand.
Providing support for new cameras isn't the only development that goes on with the Lightroom team. They are constantly looking for ways to improve the process. When a major version of Lightroom is released there has to be an expense to upgrading. Otherwise, there would be no development, no improvement, just stagnation.
But, as has been mentioned, if your camera is not supported in Lightroom 3.6, Adobe provides free of charge the DNG converter. It will convert your images to DNG (Digital negative) files that can be opened in the software that you already have. When a new major version of Lightroom is released, development on the previous version ceases. Support for cameras that are introduced has to be done on a model basis, not just the file format. So if you purchase a new camera and want support from software that you are accustomed to using, you should expect to upgrade to get that support. The move from Lightroom 3.6 to 4.1 will provide you with a lot more than just added support for new cameras. The new process is much more refined and can produce superior results. If that isn't of value to you then simply use the DNG converter.

Hi Blonde in a jag,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on your exact intended usage, but if you are looking to share photos from your Mac to your Windows PC via iCloud, you may want to take a look at the My Photo Stream feature. You may find the information outlined in the following articles helpful:

iphoto no longer downloads raw photos. they are marked unrecognized forman. this started about 3 weeks ago. jpegs download fine.

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
What system are you running and what camera are you using?

I can't see RAW photos (from Nikon D3100) in iPhoto...

Hi!!
I am trying to import photos from mi Nikon D3100 to Iphoto 11, but there is a problem: I can't open the photos; the files are located in the folder of Iphoto Library, but it can´t be open by Iphoto. The extension file is.raw, but i have updated Iphoto to get compatibility with this extension file.
What can I do?

I had import the photos from NikonD3100 with Iphoto; after finishing, appears a message "photos have been imported ok"or something similar. But the events created are empty, there are no photos inside. Then, I thought that the problem was in the import, but I looked for the photos in the Iphoto Library with the finder, and the files were ther. I think that the problem colud be related with the .raw extension file (but I have all updated...)
Thank you for your help from Spain

Can I download raw images from my Panasonic Lumix DMC - FZ45 to my iMac using Aperture3 ?

I want to start using Aperture3 as long as I can handle Raw images from my Panasonic DMC-FZ45 with it but that camera is not on the list - will it work?

If the camera is not on the list then Aperture will not be able to handle the RAW images from the camera.
It's surprising as this is a relatively old camera, so if it's not in Aperture by now I would tend to think it won't be included. You could download the trial version and see what happens just to make sure.
One other thing, you could convert the RAW images to DNG using the Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter for Macintosh and then import those.

How can I transfer RAW photos from iphoto to a separate folder. I want to send RAW photos to someone to process.

Hello I use iphoto as my place of storage of my photos.
I want to take some of my RAW photos out of iphoto and plac e them in a different folder to " send" to someone who wants to " edit".
I am not the one who will process the RAW i just want to get the RAW to the person that needs them. But my RAW are in iphoto
It seems that if i just drag a RAW picture from iphoto to dektop it does not retain its RAW size.
please advise
I just want to be able to send RAW photos that i have in iphoto to someone who will edit them.

Where are my raw photos and how do I get to them (if anyone knows please explain in very simple terms).
File -> New Smart Folder
Photo -> is -> Raw
will find all your Raws.
As described above, exporting with the Kind set to Original will get them to the Finder.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Can't download all photos from phone to mac, should I turn off photo stream?

I took my mac air, iPhone 5, iPad 2 into the Apple store last week. We set up Photo Stream. Now I can't get all photos off my phone so that I can share them on FB. I can see them in the phone but they are only on laptop in the Stream not on hard drive

Make sure you have the iPhoto/Photo Stream preferences set to import all PS photos:
Be aware that many users are having problems with uploading photos to Facebook from inside iPhoto on their Macs. The workaround is to export the photos to the Desktop and upload them to FB with your browser.
