Can't upload photos from camera

Have 12 pix to upload from camera (Canon Eos 50 D) to my IMac.   Been doing this for over 5 years with no problem till now.  Battery is good,  even tried the plug in battery just in case.   Cable plugs into camera,  then to my keyboard,  turn camera on but nothing happens.   Even turned off my back up,  just in case.   Camera gives no indication that battery is no good,  since all systems work:  menu, slideshow, etc.         
Thanks.

Hello mingdurga,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are unable to import photos from your Canon camera to your Mac because the Mac doesn’t recognize that the camera is connected. There are two different articles that I would suggest reading over in this situation. The first article has information, that you may already be familiar with, explains importing photos from a camera to your Mac. 
Using a camera with your Mac - Apple Support
The next article is one that I would suggest reading over for troubleshooting. Please review the Top troubleshooting tips section of this article for assistance.

Have a great day,
Joe

  • HT4890 Can you move photos from camera roll to photo stream?

    Can you move photos from camera roll to photo stream?

    Photos taken on your device (which are saved to the camera roll) after enabling photo stream are automatically added (when connected to wifi, the camera app is closed, and you have at least 20% battery power remaining).  If you want to add earlier photos you'll have to either email them one by one to yourself, then open the email and save them back to your camera roll (which will now upload to photo stream because it is considered a new photo), or you can send them all at once using an app like PhotoSync.  With this app you can transfer them wirelessly to your computer, then delete them from your camera roll on your phone, the send them back to the camera roll from your computer (which will again cause them to be seen as new photos).  (iTunes will not transfer photos to your camera roll so you can't just import them and sync them back.)

    iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Accounts ->
    Delete and recreate your email settings.
    It's only difficult if you get all emotional over tiny things and don't stop to look for answers first. I find Macs very simple to use.

  • 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.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen. Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take the actions that you're having trouble with. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

    Use iTunes. Download and install iTunes software. Connection iPad to have iTunes installed computer. And then in the iTunes left navigation bar to find the "Device" column, there are "xxx iPad" a. Use the mouse to point xxx iPad ", then the iTunes main screen displays a summary of the iPad. Find in the main interface of the iPad summary information at the top so a row of menu "summary" information "application" music "" video "TV show" The Book "Photo". Then click on "photo". This is the main interface of the iTunes "Sync photos" tick, and click the "from" behind the selection box to select a photo folder in your computer. Selected later in the lower right corner of the iTunes window to find the "Sync" button, click! You're done.

  • Can't upload photos from iPhone or camera disk after installing iPHoto 9

    I installed iPhoto 9 from iLife 11 last week Since the installation (and subsequent installation of 9.0.1), I have not been able to upload photos from my iPhone 4 nor my camera SD card to my iPhoto library. When I plug in my iPhone or camera disk, I just get a spinning beachball plus the spinning spoke wheel in iPhoto and when I go to Force Quit, it always says NOT RESPONDING. Any ideas? I didn't lose any photos on the install just can't add any photos. I'm going to see a Mac Genius tomorrow.

    No, remember this was a test. It tells us that iPhoto is workign correctly, but that your Library isn't.
    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. Include the option to rebuild from automatic back up.

  • 8.2 update - unable to upload photos from Camera app

    I downloaded the 8.2 update, and now I can't seem to upload photos from the Camera app to Facebook when I check-in. It only brings up my videos from the Camera app, not the photos. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    You're welcome.
    It is needed by the FaceBook app in order to upload photos with the app. You need it on for the apps that require location services in order to use the app or to use the location services function included with the app. You don't necessarily need it on for every app - that is up to you.
    The arrow in the menu bar means location services is being actively used by an app.
    The arrow next to an app at Settings > Location Services means the app has requested your location within the last 24 hours.

  • How can I import photos from camera to computer?

    The "Get Photos" selection has disappeared from my Elements 9 screen. How can I import photos from my camera to my computer?

    Yes, the entire top bar disappeared. I no longer see the place to click to
    initiate the import, and I don't see the place to select the camera from
    which to import or the place where I used to select a file or create a new
    file in which to save the pictures when they are imported. I clicked
    Organize when I entered the program, but everything looks slightly
    different. What can I do. I certainly don't want to jeopardize over 3,000
    photos installed.
    Thanks.

  • How can I upload photos from my USB to my ipad

    How can I transfer photos from my computer to my ipad?

    There are several ways.
    iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) 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.)

  • I can't upload photos from my iPhone to my iMac

    Every time I try and upload photos from my iPhone 4s to iPhoto, it goes about halfway and then "quits unexpectedly".  Any suggestions? 

    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Connect your iPhone  and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

  • How can I upload photos from IPhoto to Facebook?

    How do I upload photos from IPhoto into my Facebook account?

    I am unable to upload photos to Facebook on my iPad Air and my iPhone 5s since I updated my devices to iO/S8. I hope Apple comes up with a fix pretty soon. I love iPhoto and would not like to resort to using something like Amizon Cloud Drive. Not unless I had to because iPhoto is not working with Facebook..

  • Can't Import Photos from Camera or iPhone

    This is a recent development. For some reason when I plug in my iPhone or my Canon Power Shot I can't load photos I've taken to iPhoto '09. When I switch users and go to my wife's iPhoto on the same computer, i have no problem loading photos with the same camera (she has no trouble with her Phone). I have had to resort to emailing photos from my wife so that I can then manually load them to iPhoto. I can't even use the pull down menu in email to save photos to iPhoto. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.

    I am having a similar problem. For the last 3 months iPhoto has worked as expected. It automatically starts accessing the pictures from my camera when I plug the USB from the camera into my MacBook. Then I can select which pictures I want to import. The last time I was able to do this function normally was on Sunday of this week.
    Now, however, when I plug the USB into the Mac it does not start to automatically access the pictures. I tried the solutions mentioned in this thread already and they didn't resolve it. When I went to the console, I got the following error message last night:
    10-03-10 10:49:32 PM [0x0-0xe00e].com.apple.iPhoto[117] Face Detecting 3 OKAO_Detection(0x18756370,data=2304-bytes 0x1c64000,48x48) failed with -3
    This morning the error message is:
    10-03-11 6:16:47 AM com.apple.WindowServer[56] Thu Mar 11 06:16:47 MY_NAME'S-MacBook.local WindowServer[56] <Error>: kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch errors as they are logged.
    The process works when I plug it into our PC so it must be something I have done to the Mac this week. I had added a program requested by Facebook when I uploaded pictures earlier this week. I thought that might be causing the problem so I deleted it as well as some other programs I had installed for Twitter use. Still having problems.
    Thanks if anyone can help me.

  • How do I upload photos from camera to computer

    Hi, I have a Macbook with MAC OS X 10.5.2 software, a Sanyo/Sprint phone, and a data cable. I want to transfer photos from my phone onto my computer. I managed to plug the data cable into the phone, and into the USB port on the computer, but I don't know what to do next. There isn't an option on my phone camera to upload or export, so can I do this through the computer somehow? I'm sorta' desperate, it's for an important project.

    Welcome to the Apple boards:
    Don't you need some special Sanyo software? Check their website.
    What does the Sanyo manual say about tranferring data between the phone and a Mac?
