Cannot upload photos from iphone to iphoto

Since upgrading my Mac to OS Mavericks I have lost the facility of uploading photos from my iPhone to iPhoto.
I have iPhoto 8.1.2 and my phone runs iOS7 with iCloud.
Some advice has said refer to iPhoto Preferences and use the iCloud link there, but there is no iCloud link in my Preferences.  I have tried to upgrade iPhoto, but discovered that it is only possible through iLife and I don't need all of that.
Any help would be appreciated.

Give this a try:

This solved my questionRe: ios update problem - 7.1 11D167 iphoto not picking up new photos
Mar 20, 2014 7:15 AM (in response to JdinPa)
I figured out the fix for the Mac users having this problem. I connected my iPhone to my iMac and started iTunes. A dialogue came up in iTunes, I OK'd that and then OK'd the usual "Do you trust this Mac" that comes up on my iPhone.
Suddenly Image Capture launched itself and there were all my photos, ready to be downloaded.

  • Cannot upload photos from iPhone to iPhoto (NOT Camera Roll)

    I just came back from vacation and stored all the photos I took with my digital camera on my iPhone so I could clear out the camera and continue using it. I have ovr 1,000 pics and videos combined on my iPhone that I cannot seem to import onto iPhoto. I have no problem uploading to iPhoto the pics from my iPhone that I take using my iPhone but cannot figure out how to get the other pictures off. Can anyone help? Thanks!

    Also, if you stored them by syncing in iTunes, that was a bad idea. The pictures are downsized when they are synced to the phone, and all you can recover are low-res copies of the originals. The iPhone is NOT a good backup mechanism.
    If for some reason you have no access to the computer where you originally downloaded the photos from the camera, there are third-party programs that will recover (low-res, downsized) photos from the phone. Google PhoneView or TouchCopy.

    I have detele the iPhoto cache from user/library/caches/com.apple.iPhoto but it made no difference.
    Any advice is welcome.

    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.

  • Cannot transfer photos from iPhone into iPhoto 9

    So I was transferring vacation pictures and had no problem uploading pictures from my memory card into iPhoto but when I plugged in my iPhone and clicked 'import selected', a box came up saying "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem writing to the volume containing your iPhoto library". Does anyone know whats going on and how I fix this problem? I have uploaded photos from my iPhone many times before this and have never had a problem. 

    And it's  iphoto '09.  I'm not quite sure what that means though.  Do you mean on the hard drive? Sorry, not super computer savy.

  • Cannot import photos from iPhone to iPhoto

    For some reason I'm unable to download photos from my iPhone to IPhoto on my MacBook Pro.  iPhoto doesn't seem to recognize it as a device conected to the computer while iTunes does so it's not giving me the option to import them.  What the heck is going on and how can I import them into iPhoto?

    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.

  • 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!

  • I cannot upload photos from iPhoto 9 to Flikr. When I attempt to do so, I get the message "the login details or auth token passed were invalid." Please help.

    I cannot upload photos from iPhoto 9 to Flikr. When I try, I get the message "the login details or auth token passed were invalid."  I am using iPhoto 9 version 8.1.2, and my OS is 10.9.5. My computer is a MacBook Pro. I do not have this trouble with my iMac.  This trouble started before I updated to OS10.9.5.  I do not have this problem when uploading to FaceBook or sending by e-mail.
    This problem started when I tried to upload some photos after hitting the "use other account" tab. This took me to a Flikr site asking me for permission to make my iPhoto information available to others.  I clicked "yes," and then I changed my mind and clicked "no." I haven't been able to upload to Flikr since.
    I searched Flikr and Yahoo for a solution, and Yahoo says the trouble is in iPhoto.  I checked my Flikr account, and iPhoto extensions are enabled.
    I need to upload some school and alumni photos, so I sure could use some help. I am Not computer proficient.  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?

  • Suddenly cannot upload photos from iPhoto to websites like ebay

    I am attempting to create listings on Ebay and cannot upload photos from Iphoto like I used to.  This happened on another website as well where I attempted to upload photos from Iphoto onto the site and it wouldn't work.  I was able to upload to Facebook and use the pictures that way, but cannot do that for Ebay.
    With the Ebay issue, I'm able to get to Iphoto by clicking on the browse button in Ebay, but when Iphoto comes up, it's frozen and I can't move the page at all. I'm have to "force quit" Safari to even be able to continue using the computer.
    I am using a Mac Mini, Mac OS X Lion (Version 10.7.5).  Safari is Version 6.1 (7537.71).  All software is up to date.
    Thanks in advance!!

  • I recently updated my iphone software and now I can't upload photos from iphone to mac computer. Help please.

    I recently updated my iphone software and now I can't upload photos from iphone to mac computer. Help please.

    The following link has 2 methods for importing photos to a Mac (not counting Photo Stream). Are you using iPhoto or Image Capture? If you follow the steps in the link for that method, what exactly happens that doesn't allow the upload? iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

  • Sync Photos from iPhone to iPhoto

  • Cannot delete photos from  iphone 5 downloaded from pc.  Tried all solutions using Itunes and it doesn't delete them from iphone

    Cannot delete photos from iphone 5 downloaded from pc.  Tried the ITunes solution and it does not delete the photos.  Try a second time and Sync doesn't even start

    I see the photos tab and "My Pictures" folder shows.  Sync is unselected.  It asks if I want to delete the photos when I click on sync and I said yes but it didn't work.  It does seem that some photos are removed based on available storage left (decreases).  If I select individual folders, subfolders of "My Pictures" then hit Sync deselected Sync doesn't even start.

  • Has anyone noticed how much slower it is to import photos from iphone to iphoto

    has anyone noticed how much slower it is to import photos from iphone to iphoto in Mac OS.?

    How many photos do you have in your iPhoto library? As your library grows, it will take more time to load when the app launches.Personally, I have not noticed any slowdown.
    And my question was meant to find out whether you import process had gotten slower than...a year ago, a month ago, compared to other photo apps? Running Mountain Lion..since you upgraded? In the end..what? Hence, I asked.
    Try being clearer next time. That way we don't have to beat around the bush when trying to help you.

  • Can't finish importing photos from iPhone to iPhoto

    I have about 2,000 pictures in my iPhone 4.
    When I try to import my photos from iPhone to iPhoto Library, it stops importing after about 250 photos. Keeps saying 1,489 remaining(something like that) photos and the picture image on your iPhoto stops or freeze there. (Normally you can see what's importing into your iPhoto)
    Tried rebooting the MacPro Tower and iPhone. My computer is up to date.
    I was not sure if I had corrupted photo images, so I deleted bunch of photos around where iPhoto would stall.
    I have no idea what's going on. Could someone please help me?
    Thanks,

    Try use Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) to move the files to the Desktop and import from there.
    Regards
    TD

  • I was trying to sync my latest photos from iphone onto iphoto but pressed restore instead of sync. Now it's deleted my latest photos taken a week ago. Is there a way to get back those photos via backup somehow?

    I was trying to sync my latest photos from iphone onto iphoto but pressed "restore" instead of "sync". Now it's erased my latest photos taken on my iphone a week ago and erased music saved in itunes library. Is there a way to find these photos and music via backup?

    Thanks so much Meg. Unfortunately, iTunes is the program I use to perform syncing. I don't really have other outside options. It is also the location of the backup I would use to restore my phone, and my only way to reclaim important data. I am concerned that, since the last backup occurred when the "other" bar was only moderately huge (around 29G I think), that a backup would replicate the problem back onto my phone. 
    My contacts, etc. are all in address book and the calendar app on my Mac.  As far as I know, iTunes is the way to get them back, but iTunes is where the problem is. 
    Any thoughts on this?
