You need to Un-Sync them using iTunes on your Computer...

  • Downloading photos from Phone to iPhotos by USB

    My phone is Sony Ericsson K700i, but when linked to iMac by USB, no icon shows on desktop. I thought I would just be able to click on Import in iPhoto to download photos.
    CDs which came with USB cable are only compatible with Windows.
    Do I need software? If so what is it and where can I find it?

    Hi, Rupert. Before spending money on iLIfe 06 in the hope that it will solve your phone problem, repost in the iPhoto 6 forum and ask whether that version of iPhoto will recognize your phone. If your phone's memory card does not appear on the desktop when connected via USB, iPhoto 6 isn't going to change that, and the only way it will improve your situation is if it recognizes the phone and can import directly from it. I don't know whether or not it has that ability, but I'd be surprised.
    For the phone card to appear on the desktop using a USB connection, you would need to install a phone-specific USB driver provided either by the phone maker (and Sony hasn't gotten the word yet that Macs exist, so don't look for any help there) or by a third-party developer. I don't know where to look for a third-party driver, but one may exist. Google may serve you well in searching for it, if it does.
    This thread in another online forum may contain some useful information for you.
    A different approach would be to buy a BlueTooth adapter to plug into one of your USB ports and sync the phone with the Mac via BlueTooth. The S700i is listed as an iSync-compatible device on this Apple page. I have a D-Link DBT-120 BlueTooth adapter to sync my Motorola Razr phone with my Powerbook; it cost me about $20 on sale at CompUSA. There may also be software alternatives to iSync that can be used to facilitate the transfer of data between phone and Mac, with different features available.
    Don't expect iPhoto to be able to import photos directly from the phone via Bluetooth, but you should certainly be able to copy them from the phone to your hard drive and then import them into iPhoto from there.

  • Downloading Photos from Phone

    I took some pics with my phone and I would like to download them to my computer. This should be a very easy process.
    So I hook up the phone to the laptop with a USB cord. To start, Verizon Cloud starts backing up all of my content from my laptop to the cloud, something completely uncalled for. It takes me a while to stop this. Then I finally find my pictures. I can see them but there is no option to download them. I read the help about "Retrieving Photos from your Handset". I do as stated, I have Mac OS X 10.6.8, but, even after reconnecting my phone, the download of pics does not start.
    After half a hour, I have no idea how to get my pics from my phone and I am extremely annoyed that VZW is trying to push down our shove its new product to make us buy Cloud space. Let me add that I have found this new phone poorly designed along many other dimensions. This is just the last straw. Good job, really.

    Yep.
    Dropbox 
      It's a free app, cross platform so it works on Mac, Windows, android and IOS.
    Download on your phone first, it will send email to your Mac to get the free download on the Mac.  It provides 5GB of free storage and will automatically download daily, over your home wifi.
    You have access anytime to photos with your smartphone, computer and any other device you put Dropbox on.
    I have been using it as the bridge and storage for my IOS, Mac and Android for over a year and have earned extra storage of 1.4 GB, total 6.4 GB
    It can store more than photos and video.   Documents, contact lists, it syncs my passwords between IOS and android phone.
    As. I mentioned it will auto download photo and video, you can choose to un-link, and do this on demand if you like.
    Give it a try, hope you like it.

  • Still cannot delete albums photos from phone

    Is any one able to help?

    You can delete photos from Camera Rolls Album but you cannot delete photo(s) from Albums that are synced from your computer.  You have to remove those photos from your PC synced folder and sync your device, then iTunes will remove them from your device.

  • Downloading photos from phone to PC

    Have a 2730 classic phone.  I've several pics I've taken over time on the phone and was thinking I should download them to my PC.  Haven't a clue how to do this.  I have no USB connector or anything like that, as far as I know, all I have in the original box are the earphones.  Can anyone help please like do I need to purchase anything or is the process quite simple.  I probably sound a complete idiot as everybody seems to download them ok - I had asked my son in law and he said to use my camera USB to download them but it wouldn't recognise the format or whatever.
    Any help greatly appreciated. 
    Solved!

    You can connect the phone to PC by buying a compatible USB Cable (CA-101) or an USB Bluetooth Dongle ( to make your PC Bluetooth enabled if its not already..) Then you can browse the phone drives thru' Windows Explorer..Copy-Paste the photos to PC..You may also use the Sync function in OVI Suite to do that..
    One more option is to send the photos thru' e-mail..( may be expensive if you do not have unlimited data plan..).. and also required will be setting up e-mail mailbox.. on the phone..

  • What is wrong when my computer says there is an error downloading photos from phone?

    When I connect Iphone to computer to download images it says there is an error and it won't download them.  What is wrong?

    As long as that junk is installed you really can't begin to figure out what's wrong.
    You wrote you tried to repair the startup volume using Disk Utility. Did you do that after starting your Mac with OS X Recovery, and did it report any errors? Random freezes associated with disk access such as playing iTunes music would be a symptom of disk failure. Make sure you have adequate backups.

  • I cannot download photos from my digital camera to Iphoto (version '09). I have been able to successfully do this up to 4 days ago but not yesterday. My camera/device is recognized in the Source List but photos won't download for me to import to library.

    I cannot download photos from my digital camera (via a cable) to Iphoto (version '09). I have been able to do this successfully up til 4 days ago but not yesterday (Dec. 25th). My camera/device is recognized in the Source List, but when it tries to download the photos, all I get are the words "Loading Photos" in the area where the thumbnail pictures usually display. The little "gear" symbol next to the words but it just goes round and round. Nothing ever downloads, and instead of showing me how many pictures there are to import it just says "No photos". So therefore I cannot import the photos to my library since they won't even download.
    I was getting an error message a few days ago that my Iphoto library was getting full, so I emptied my trash in both Iphoto and on my computer. I had this same problem back in October and emptying the trash and getting rid of some photos did help (can I really be using that much storage space for the pictures?). But it didn't help this time.
    Any suggestions as to what to do to solve the problem? I would try taking the SD card out and inserting that into the slot on the computer to see if I could load pictures that way; but the last time I did that, they wouldn't load. Not sure if I lost pics from the disc or not.
    Thank you,

    1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
    Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
    How much free space on it now?

  • When I download photos from a flash drive,everything is fine and they show in Events and Pictures, but when I click on the individual pic I get an error message saying that it cannot locate the JPG. Any thoughts?

    It sounds like your iPhoto Advanced preferences are set to not copy photos during import, i.e. a Referenced library:
    Check your Advanced preferences to see if that's the case. If it is the best solution would be to select the checkbox to copy the photos and reimport the photos from the flash drive.  Then check the new import. It it was OK you can delete the previous event with the "missing" photos.

  • Can I download photos from droid phone?

    Can I download photos from a droid phone to iPad?

    Depends. If you have the camera connection kit you can try importing the photos from your phone to your iPad. However, if your phone is like mine, it won't work. The camera connection kit needs a very specific naming protocol. For it to see files, they need to be in a folder named DCIM and have file names of exactly 8 characters.
    What will probably be easier is for you to connect your phone to your computer, get the photos onto your computer and then import them into your ipad. Or perhaps text/mail them off your phone to a mail account you can access on your iPad.
    Or if the photos are on a removable memory card, get that to your computer, pull the photos off that way and then use iTunes to sync them onto your iPad.

  • Is there software that will let me download photos from a Sony Jalou F100i mobile phone?

    Is there software available that will let me download photos from a Sony Jaou F100i mobile phone?  I have a USB cable.

    An external memory card reader.  You can purchase one for as little as $5.
    Contact Sony for software and/or read the user manual.  See if they have one for a Mac.

    You may have to research any newer possibilities in trouble-

    Since I don't use iPhoto as a primary editor or storage, the

    I am new to Lightroom and have also just changed from Apple to PC.  I cannot figure out how to download photos from the Photoshop library to a file that will be sent to MPIX for processing.  Also, does Lightroom have an easy access to a photo processing capability such as MPIX?

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Download photos from old phone, but can't see the screen

    Download photos from a LG Spectrum 2 that quit working, my contacts came over from whenever the last backup was, there were some of them missing as well.  I can't see the screen on Spectrum 2, but the power button light is illuminated if plugged into a charger.  My Spectrum 2 has an internal SD card, so not just as easy as obtaining from the SD card.

        prweaver2,
    I am sorry for the issues you are having. Without having access to the on screen prompts of the phone the media can not be transferred unless it was previously backed up somewhere such as the VZW Cloud or another 3rd party storage. If you would like you can try to gain access to the media by plugging the device into a computer and transfer the media however this many not be possible as you must enable USB Mass Storage on the device.
