Cannot import photos; albums do not exist after creation and
Using iPhoto '11 - When I create albums and then shut down iPhoto and reopen, the album no longer exists. Also when trying to import photos via firewire, iPhoto displays message that an import is already taking place and I must wait for it to be completed.
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key 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?
Regards

Cannot import photos from iphone to iphoto after ios6 upgrade
I upgraded to IOS6 a few days ago. Now iphoto does not start up automatically when I attach my phone. When I open the app, my phone is not recognized and the "import photos" button is no where to be found.
I've tried checking off photostream, unchecking photostream; changing the preferences to image capture; rebooting my phone. I really need to get these photos off of my phone as it is full. Please help!!!
Thanks!Yes, I did solved the problem. It was not with iPhoto but with the iTunes. Once I delete my phone profile all worked. I did not write the steps down but if you do it please post it here.

HT4236 importing photo albums from device to computer
Can you import complete albums under the album name from the device (ipad) to the computer (imac)?
See this article, referred to in the article you attached above:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
In particular, note these two paragraphs (pay particluar attention to "Camera Roll or Saved Photos" in the first):
After your photos have been imported from your Camera Roll or Saved Photos, you can use iTunes to sync them back to your device.
Additional Information
You can import only photo and video content taken with the built-in camera or captured on the device. You cannot import photo or video content synced from iTunes. -
How do I add photos to my camera roll that were not taken one my iPad? I have iMported photos from my camera to my iPad. Theses photos are in the imported photo album. I want to move these photos to my camera roll but can't figure out how to this. I want them in my camera roll because that is the album that syncs with Dropbox where I want to backup my photos. Thank you for your help.
Consider using sshfs to mount your Pi from your Linux boxes. It's much easier to configure and manage than samba. It sounds like you already have your Windows machines mounting your Pi so Samba is doing its job in that respect.
More info on sshfs in the Wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sshfs
To help get you off the dime, here's a modified line from my fstab that I use to mount my Pi with:
gav@PI:/mnt/backup /mnt/rpi/backup fuse.sshfs rw,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other 0 0
Subsitute my mount points with yours.
For a password-less mount:
ssh-copy-id gav@PI
after you've set up ssh and generated some keys on your client box.
Here are some relevant lines from the smb.conf file on my Pi that I use for my one Windows box in the house that might help you with your write permissions:
security = user
hosts allow = 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
guest account = gav
; And my share setup:
[rpi]
comment = Public Stuff
path = /mnt
writable = yes
; printable = no
; write list = @krb
[torrent_dl]
path = /mnt/video/torrent_dl
writable = yes
create mask = 0770
directory mask = 0770
guest ok = Yes
case sensitive = No
read only = No
Hope this helps. -
Hello,I am in need of some help. I have several large photo albums on my iPod touch 4th generation that I need to syn to iPhoto on my new Mac account. The Camera roll album has been imported but I need to import the rest. I also need to create the contacts on my iPod already.
Thanks for the help in advance!You can only export photos from the camera roll. The other photos were synced to the iPod and you have to get them from the source (the computer they were synced from)..\
Note: You can import only photo and video content taken with the built-in camera or captured on the device. You cannot import photo or video content synced from iTunes.

However, one of the third-party programs discusses here may be able to do that.

How to transfer or backup iPod contents to Mac - Windows mac iPhone iPod software reviews - Software Wiki
It sounds like you are switching syncing computers. You need to move/copy the iPod backup file from your old computer and move it to your new computer. Then restore you iPod from that backup. That file is located:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Then you can set up itunes to sync the Mac address book to your iPod. If you have at least one contact in the Mac's address book, the sync process will fill the Mac's address book. -
Photo albums messed up again after update
Once again, after an iOS update, the last 12 months and last imported photos albums showed up on the phone even though the boxes are not checked in iTunes before or after those updates.
As the with last time, the only way to remove those two albums was to sync an older iPhoto library, then re-sync the current iPhoto library as a replacement.
That clears the two, unwanted albums, but why have the last two iOS updates cause this problem?Hi,
I think the easiest way to fix this is go into iTunes and rename all the tracks in your "Greatest Hits" albums with unique album names, e.g "Black Lace Greatest Hits" and "Greatest Hits - The Sweet" etc. You can even be as subtle as just adding a "." or hyphen or extra space, it will make the name different and your Touch will be able to distinguish different albums.
The Albums should then sort them selves out after a synch.
Good luck,
Dud. -

IPhoto 9.2 photo descriptions will not write - after a few letters words self erase!
iPhoto 9.2 photo descriptions will not write - after a few letters words self erase! Program update downloaded earlier today, 24.10.11. Fine on my laptop, but my desktop is having problems.
Rebuild the main library.
Option 1
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. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "cannot take photo" there's not enough storage, but I have my phone/camera roll hooked up to Icloud and have purchased additional storage???
iCloud storage has nothing to do with remaining memory on the phone - only memory for backups and Photostream. The photo has to first be stored on the phone and copies sent to iCloud. If there is not enough available memory on the phone, the photo can't be taken.
To determine the remaining memory on the phone:
Settings > General > Usage > Storage
The Camera Roll is meant for temporary storage of photos, which should be imported to an app on your computer and deleted from Camera Roll. You can then sync back those photos which you want to keep on the phone.

I cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5v or photoshop
i cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5 or photoshop
Launch Lightroom and from the menu go to:
Lightroom >> Preferences >> general (tab)
Ensure there is a checkmark in the box “show import dialog when a memory card is detected”
Then quit Lightroom and insert the card again. Does LR launch ready for import?
If not, check that your card is mounted. You should see an icon on the desktop.
Launch Lightroom and click the import button (bottom left)
Expand the tree in the left-hand column of the import dialog e.g. from Mac HD >> Users….down to desktop.
Highlight your card.
Choose “Copy” at the top and either a named folder on the right or automatic dated folders.
Then start the import. -

There is no "into". LR and PS just reference your photos on the hard drive.
When you import your photos "into" the LR catalog, LR can copy the images off your memory cards to the hard drive if you have not already copied them, but the photos are referenced by the LR catalog by the path and filename for the files.
If you are having problems getting the images off the cards, what steps are you using and what error messages are you getting? -

I cannot import photos from my Cannon PowerShot A80
I cannot import photos frpm my Cannon PowerShot A80. I have imported many photos from this camera in the past. I get an unrecognized fromat error message.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Sounds like the camera memory card (CompactFlash) contains one or more corrupted image files.
If the images are not important, you may be able to correct the problem by reformatting the memory card with the camera setup menu. Of course that will destroy any images currently on the card.
If you choose to do that, quickly do a few test images and try importing them to verify that the card was successfully reformatted and that the test images can correctly be imported.
There are utility programs designed to recover images from flash memory.
One of my flash cards came with a free one (for Windows) that I use.
Of course there are also paid programs and data recovery services.
A quick search revealed this link. I downloaded, installed it, and recovered a deleted file, but I have not used the free version extensively, so I cannot vouch for it, or the paid upgrade.
