Cant export photos to SD Card

I am trying to export pictures from the library to a card for a photo frame. I can’t seem to get them there. I keep getting “unable to create” message. Do all the photos need to be renamed? is there a sharing issue with photos having the same name?
imac

I have a frame also and had problems putting files into the root folder. I was able to finally get them in there by adding a few at a time, particularly after I hit a particular number, in my case it was 79. From there I had to add 1-3 at a time but did finally get up to 102 files. My frame could not view them in a folder.
Do you Twango?

E72 - Cant view photos on memory card

Hey,
Any photos or backgrounds I put on my memory card are not viewable in the image gallery and If I move a image from the phone memory to my memory card in the image gallery It just disappears. I tested the memory card in another phone and it works fine. What am I doing wrong?

I face a similar problem. Heres the history.
There was a virus on my cell phone, because of which a folder by the name 'RECYCLER' appeared on my phone. I did a hard reset (Format). Since then, I believe the virus is gone (since I cant see the Recycler folder any more), but my images cant be viewed in the Gallery. If I use my phone in mass storage mode, I can see the pictures that I had taken. But they dont appear in my Gallery. Any ideas how to solve this problem.
Also, if I take my phone to a Nokia Service Center, can they format and reinstall the entire software, so that the phone is just like it was on the day I purchased it?

Traveling - export photo to SD card

Is there a LIGHTWEIGHT hardware solution to export videos and photos from an iPhone to an external device like an SD card, or a small usb drive?
I would them delete them from the iPhone to free some space and get more shots.
ps: traveling; no internet access.
thanks!

Why would you set the devie to manage music and videos manually? This has no affect on the abiltiy to copy pictures/videos taken with the device to a computer.
Simply plug the iDevice in, copy the pictures to the computer or directly to a flash drive. This is assuming that the computer you connect to is not locked down to prevent such things.

Cant export photos from Iphone to Iphoto?

Never an issue until recently. Always just plugged the Iphone into my MacBook and Iphoto would automatically import new photos taken on my Iphone and ask if I wanted to import. Now I cant seem to get any response. I can sync my phone normally, I can put new events etc from the computer to the phone but not the other way. When I click the "import" in Iphoto my Iphone is not an option.

This means your iPhone is no longer recognized by iPhoto at all when connected when your iPhone includes photos in the Camera Roll. Does your iPhone's Camera Roll include any photos saved from a received email or from a website? If so, this has been attributed to causing this problem and I'm not sure why. I haven't experienced the same yet and I've saved some photos from a received email, from a website, or from a received MMS.
If you have any photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll that were not captured by your iPhone, email these photos to yourself for access with the Mail.app on your Mac followed by deleting the photos from your iPhone's Camera Roll. The photos can be saved from the received message with the Mail.app on your Mac into iPhoto.
Check if this resolves it.

I cant copy photo's out of iPhoto, I select them all but if I want to paste them for example to my nas or a folder on my macbook, the paste option wont appear. I tried with export, didnt work either. It used to work, but now all of a sudden it wont.

I cant copy photos out of iphoto (event), I can copy them but if I want to paste them in another folder on my macbook or nas hdd, I dont have the option "paste" If I select some of the pic's it sometimes works.I also tried with export them but didnt work either.
I used to load them into iphoto manged them and then simly copied them and saved them on my nas and/or my macbook's hdd in a folder, but now it wont work. I have now thousents of photo i cant copy, its a mess....
it might be a problem with an update as I had also a mess with my music after updating to the latest itunes.
has anybody an idea how to fix this??

That warning sign comes up when iPhoto has broken the link/file path to the original photos. Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

How to export photos from ipad to sd card

For some reason my ipad doesn't recongize readers attached. Or maybe a better question is how do I know if ipad recognizes reader? How do I export photos from ipd to SD card?

You can only use the kit to copy photos from a card (or direct from a camera) to the iPad's Photos app, you can't use it to copy content off the iPad.
To copy photos to the iPad via the kit, then if you are copying the photos onto the card yourself from your computer then you will need to create a DCIM directory off the root of the card, with the photos underneath it, and the photo filenames need to be exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension i.e. in a similar format as if a camera had created/written them
To copy photos taken with the iPad, copied to via the kit or saved from emails/websites etc from the iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

Backing up photos to external hard drive,and exporting back to CF card on camera

iPhoto 5 on Mac Power PC G4, OS 10.4.11
backing up photos to external hard drive (LaCie) My iPhoto Library contains a number of files (such as 'Library.iPhoto' 'iPhoto.db' 'ThumbJPG.data' etc) and a number of folders with dates such as 2005 etc, containing folders within folders, none of which with any contents.
Is there a way I can organise just the photos on their own so that I can select just those to be backed up on my LaCie hard drive, without all those distracting and (apparently) unnecessary extra files and folders ?
exporting edited photos back to CF card on camera I have tried everything I can think of to export photos from iPhoto back to the CF card on the camera, without success. It must be possible to do ?

Edit: Note: It's been a while but the Export command may be in the Share menu on older versions...
1. To back up an iPhoto Library
Most Simple Back Up
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex:
Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
2. To Back up Just the Photos
Use the File -> Export command to export the images to where you want them.
BTW: there are no user-serviceable parts in the iPhoto Library Folder. Rooting around in there can cause damage.
3. Edited Photos to CF Card is a two part process:
Exporting is just File -> Export. Choosing any setting except 'Original' and you'll get the Edited version.
The CF Card? Just drag and drop there.
But a couple of possible problems: Canon Cameras don't show up in the Finder. So you'll need to stick the card into a USB Card Reader for get them on there
Camera Cards are all formatted FAT. That means there's a limit to the number of items on the top level of the card: Workaround: Export the shots to a folder and drag that over
And, of course, if you want to see the shots in the camera, you'll need to put them in whatever specific folder it uses for the photos.

How do I export photos from iphoto to a memory card?

How do I export photos from iphoto to a memory card?

Not using the correct structure. Camera's use a very exact structure and the only way the camera will see photos on the card is for them to be in that exact structure

How do I export photos back onto a camera SD card? I have created a desktop file for photos and SD card in Finder, dragged photos to card, but when I try to view them in the camera, it says "No valid photo to display"

How do I export photos back onto a camera SD card? I have created desktop files for the photos and the card, dragged photos to the card, but when I replace card in camera, it says "No valid photo to display". I just need to get some prints made and have been struggling with this for hours. Thank you.

No one can help you any more than has been done
Your camera is not a general purpuose photo display system - it is designed to take photos, let you look at those photos and allow you to download them to your computer or other places - if you wnat to use it view photos then you have to put the photos in exactly the correct place with exactly the correct names or it will not see them
And this has absolutely nothing to do with iPhoto in any way - iPhoto sotres and proecesses yoru photos and allows you to export them - once you export them it is totally out of the picture - you can easily get photo prints by using the iPhoto print service, using an internet print service, burning photos to a DVD and taking them to a print service or putting them on a SD card and taking them to a print service - to view them on your camera you have to exactly reporduce what the camera is looking for - not at all sure what the pirnt even is

I cant export my photos from my mac to my ipad , bluetooth wont se

i cant export my photos from my mac - osx - 10.6.8 to my ipad air , bluetooth wont recognise it

That's because Bluetooth is not supported out of the box for the transfer of photos to the iPad from your Mac. There are third party apps that let you transfer over WiFi or Bluetooth. I use this one. There are others in the App Store that you can check out.
Wireless Transfer App - Share, sync & backup photos, pictures ...
You can also sync photos from the Mac to the iPad using iTunes.
iTunes: Syncing photos - Support - Apple

Exporting photos to camera memory card-drag & drop won't work

Hi! I am trying to export photos from IPhoto08 to the memory card on my digital camera. In iPhoto, there is an icon showing for my camera under "devices" but when I try to drag a photo to the camera icon, nothing happens; it just doesn't recognize that there is a camera there, even though it shows my camera by name and number. help! do you think it's the brand of card I'm trying to use?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Unless the memory card/camera can mount on the desktop as removable media you won't be able to move files to the card. Depending on the camera you may be able to change the file transfer mode so that the camera does mount on the desktop. Otherwise you'll need to get a card reader which will do the job.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Since you didn't state your operating system, you should go to your favorite search engine and find instructions on how to change permissions. Follow those instructions.
