Can't Import Dig Photos from 2 Different Dig cameras

Frustrating problem with dig camera uploads to iphotos. I have new Nikon D40X. When I connect to Imac with Leopard 10.5, it sees the photos and brings them up as thumbnails. When I say 'import', however, the Imac says the files are ot recognized and lists all the photo files as JPEG. Same thing happened with a Casio did camera I have. I called for help as I have the APP, but tech said that the camera was not compatible. Yet, new Nikon is compatible. I think this is OS related. Any ideas please?

Not the cheapest solution, but did you try getting a memory card reader and uploading them that way?

I can't import my photos from my digital camera (Sony) this problem is recent. I have imported photos without problem a problem before.

I can't import my photos from my digital camera (Sony) to my iPad, this problem is recent. I have imported photos without problem a problem before. Is this problem due to the IOS 6 update? How can I fix it?

I have the same problem and apple needs to fix this - but in the mean time you can manually select the vertical photos then "import - import selected" and you can get your verticals. We need a better fix. THIS IS A BUG!

I can't import my photos from my iPhone 4 by iPhoto or image capture

i can't import my photos from my iPhone 4 by iPhoto or image capture.
i tried to import but in iphoto or image capture, there is no iphone in device list (they can't reconize iphone)

Hi,

I don't know the best way to resolve this but i tell you how i did it.
1 - I saved my iphone on the mac.
2 - I restaure it with 5.0.1
3 - Itunes have restaured the origin ios 5.0.1 and use the save to restaure the apps, datas, photos...
After the restaure, the iphone was seen on itunes and iphoto and others...
Best regards, Henry.

All I want to know is: HOW CAN I IMPORT A PHOTO FROM MY MAC DESK TOP?

I am sorry to be so ignorant, but I am not sure of WHERE to "post" this question:All I want to know is: HOW CAN I IMPORT A PHOTO FROM MY MAC DESK TOP?

Do you mean you want to import a photo to the organizer? It's easier if you put the photo where you want to keep it before importing, but just go to File>Get Photos>From Files and Folders and import it. If you move it after importing you must move it in folder view in the origanizer.
If you just want to edit the photo, there's no need to import it. Just go to File>Open in the editor.

Can you import video directly from a video camera ?

Can you import video directly from a video camera to the iPad 2 ? If so, what is needed?

I would say no. I have an Ipad2 with the connection kit. A recent Sony camera which works fine in imovie for my 27" imac, but nothing with the Ipad. Only thing that it finds are pictures that can be made with the same video camera. Apple wrote a note aboit probkmes with importing, but i'm very disappointed with what i have right now.

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Can I import catalog photos from a usb drive?

I have imported photos from a catalog into a new catalog. Some of the photos in the catalog are located on a remote drive. The drive is not listed when I select the photos to be imported. Is it possible to import catalog photos from a usb drive?
Howie

Hi Keith,
"Import from another catalog" is a selection found in the Lightroom "File" drop down listing. Sorry I wasn't clear in my reguest. I have used this function to import photos in to my new Catalog from my old Catalog. During the import process, Lightroom creates a working catalog from which photos can be selected. A file list on the left side of the window displays the available hard drive folders. Once the photos to be extracted are selected the source folder is checked. The import button, on the bottom right of the window, is highlited to execute the import function. Since the external USB hard drive is not listed, the import function is not available.
My question: how do I enable the import from my USB drive? Perhaps I will have to move the files back onto my internal hard drive using my Lightroom's old catalog.

Can't import some photos from iPhoto to iPad

I can't import some jpg from iPhoto to iPad. It gives me an error message that the photo can't be displayed on an iPad. There also doesn't seem to be a way to reformat them in iPhoto. They are just jpegs downloaded from a digital camera.

Deleting the photo cache from the computer and then re-trying the photo sync has worked for some people - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is described on this page

How can I consolidate all photos from different users on one computer?

We just enable one computer to be the "Family" computer. I want to be able to consolidate all photos from the different users into one location. That way no matter wich user is login they can see and browse all the family photos. How can I do that? Do I need and external drive?
Thanks in advance?

Move the iPhoto Library to the Users/Shared folder, or you can use an external disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
Merge the Libraries as Larry says, with the paid version of Library Manager.
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Each account will have full access to the library, in fact, each account will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

How can I import the photos from dvd or hard disk?

Hi!
How can I import/export my photos from dvd or hard disk??!

To what? Are you having trouble with a DVD made by a particular device, or a hard disk that was on a particular computer, or is still in that computer, and communicating to your computer? We don't have enough details to answer the question. Are you trying to get photos into an iPhoto certain version, Photoshop certain version, just the Finder of a certain version, or specific operating system on your Mac? We need more details. Is the DVD a standard DVD, such as is indicated on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2446 or something non-standard?

How can I import all photos from iPhoto and delete all the ones currently on my iPad?

I uploaded all of my iPad's photos to iPhoto('08) thinking it would be easier to delete and organize them. Now that I've done that in iPhoto I need help finding out how to delete all the photos from the iPad and have the iPhoto photos imported from iPhoto back to the iPad.

This workflow may do what you want:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new library.
2 - connect the iPad to your Mac with the new library open.
3 - import all of the photos from the iPad into the new library.
4 - select the option to delete all of the photos from the iPad.
5 - disconnect the iPad and delete the new library.
6 - launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select your original library.
7 - assemble the photos destined for the iPad so you can easily identify them by album or event which you alread have done.
8 - launch iTunes and connect the iPad to your Mac.
9 - go to the photos section for you iPad and synce those particular albums or Events with the iPad.
That will get those specific iPad photos back into the iPad.

Can't import/copy photos from disk

Hi,
My friend used her PC to make me CDs of hundreds of photos from out trip to Spain. When I pop in the disk into my MacBook Pro I can see all the images perfectly fine in my Finder but I can't figure out how to copy them or import them to iPhoto or anywhere else on my mac. I'm relatively new to Mac so I'm hoping it's just my lack of skill? All the images have the extension JPG.
How can I transfer them onto my macbook? Please help and thank you!!

Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
In the File menu in iPhoto, you can choose to "Import to Library" and select the disc to be imported. If that doesn't work (due to the Windows format), you can (maybe) open the disc for importing and select all to import.
If that still doesn't work, you can go to the disc in the Finder. Open it, select all the photos (Command + a), and drag them to the iPhoto icon in the Dock.
One way or another, if they're showing up for you in the Finder, it can be done.

HELP I can't import my photos from my Cannon to the Cannon app on my imac on Snow Leopard!

HELP - I just installed Snow Leopard & though I've uploaded photos from my Cannon Power Shot A590, since then ... But today while it opened the Cannon "Camera WIndow" & looks like the photos are being uploaded, an iMac box appears showing a: "failed to initialize program" message!!! Why
I've tried several times & can't import my latest photos from my Cannon to the Cannon app on my iMac, it doesn't recognize it? (I look at them there & often delete photos from the camera, then I import them to iPhoto.)
I've had a number of problems with Snow Leopard - in iPhoto, iWork, etc, since installing it. What gives?

I would also suggest that you check out iPhoto or Image Capture - both already in the Applications folder on your Mac - which should be heaps better than the Canon software. And, for what it's worth, you actually do not need any software to get pics onto your Mac - if you have your preferences set to display external drives on your desktop, the Canon icon should show up as soon as you plug it in. You can simply double click the icon and then look at the pics with Preview to decide if you want to keep or ditch it.
And the problems with your SL install most likely are the result of other apps not being up to date or compatible with SL - that happens every time. You need to check on compatibility of all the apps you have to you'll know what needs to be updated.

How can I import psd photos from Elements into iPhoto?

I cannot import psd photos into iPhoto without saving them to the desktop, which is a real hassle (hundreds of photos). Am I doing something incorrectly? Thanks for any advice.

I may be preaching to the choir here but this might be of help to you:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
Click to view full size
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 3 - however, if you get the navigation window
Click to view full size
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 or later the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
Click to view full size
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Click to view full size
NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (click on the Edit button) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and select "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds.
