Cousin's PC won't read all photos off copied DVD

Yesterday, a cousin and I swapped photo libraries, his off of an external USB HD plugged into my 15" MBP Core 2 Duo late 2007. And mine that I copied to DVD and gave to him. When he inserted the DVD in his PC, some of the files did not have any information. The files were listed just as the library showed them (right clicked on my library to verify info), but as he navigated through the files, they showed empty.
His files off of his external HD copied to my desktop and seemed to all be there and available for me to view on my MBP.
What did I do wrong?

TD,
Does the PC method export albums, too? I have 3313 photos in my library, and I hope that they would at least have some order to them, album wise that is.
Just looked at the exported info and only the photos (minus the albums) were exported. And, curiously only 2316 were transferred. What happened to the other 993?
TD,
Is there a way to export with album data intact?

How to copy ALL photos off of IPhone 4S with IOS 6

Hey Guys,
Here's the issue:
On the IPhone 4S with IOS 6 certain photos end up outside of the "sandbox" (the MAIN album) and the only way to transfer those is to either "jailbreak" your IPhone which I do NOT recommend or MANUALLY transfer them picture by picture on IOS 6 for an Iphonne 4S.
SEVERAL of my customers and on my IPhone 4's had that limitation.
Is there ANY other app or COMPLETELY verified procedure to get ALL (please note I said ALL) photos off of an IPhone 4S with IOS 6? Without having to spend hours manually moving them into the main album.
Thanks in advance (smile)

Please explain to me what kind of photos end up outside the sandbox. Photos taken or saved with the phone are in the Camera Roll. Other photos on the iPhone would be synced via iTunes from the computer. Those pictures are already on the computer and can be removed from the phone via another sync. Importing the photos with import utility on the computer, like a digital camera is how to get the pictures. I'm not sure what these other photos are that you are referring to, or where they are coming from.

I cannot sync all my photos from mac ti iPhone. The sync finishes before all photos arte copied to The iPhone so in my iPhone I have albums with less photos than Mac!

I cannot sync all my photos from mac to iPhone. The sync finishes before all photos are copied to The iPhone so in my iPhone I have albums with less photos than Mac! I select The album that I want to sync on The iPhone on iTunes but the syncronization finishes before all the photos of the selected albums are copied on The phone.

You should erase all contents and setting before giving your iphone away.

ITunes won't sync all photos across from iPhoto to my iPad, either when using 'all photos' or manually selecting the events. All the rest sync normally

Can anyone suggest a workround or reason why I can't sync a batch of about 300 photos in 5 events on consecutive days across from iPhoto 09 to my iPad 2? All the rest (>1000 frames mainly before and some after) go over, including some shot on the same digital camera (before and after). I've tried using 'all photos' and also manually selecting the events individually, they won't go. An album containing some of these photos goes across without them included, and converting the whole album on iPhoto to a movie and then dropping that into my videos won't go either. I've cleared the sync history as advised by the support line, and all software is updated. Loads of room on the iPad

Started having the same issue with my iPad 2 just this week. Tried deleting the iPod Photo Cache, disabling then re-enabling photo sync through iTunes, but keep getting the error: "Some of your photos, including the photo “XXX.jpg”, were not copied to the iPad “XXX” because they cannot be displayed on your iPad." This is with iOS 4.3.5, iTunes 10.4, and Mac OS 10.7 Lion.
Interestingly enough, I have no issues syncing the same exact set of photos to my iPhone 4 (also running 4.3.5). This seems to be an iPad-only issue.

IPhone won't sync all photos

Photo syncing has worked perfectly for over a year then suddenly my iPhone doesn't sync all my photos. Everything in iTunes is set to sync all, there is space on the device and sync'ing seems successful. But I have about 1000 more photos in iPhoto than now appear on my iPhone. I have tried deleting all photos and starting again, but to no avail.
Anyone got any thoughts - this is seriously annoying!
iTunes v.9.1.1 iPhone OS 3.1.3 (3G)

Try this: Launch isync from your applications folder, make sure that itunes is NOT running, under preferences, reset sync history. Give it a minute to run, once complete, re-boot your computer. Launch itunes, connect your phone, the photos that won't sync, are they in a separate album or lumped together with all the other photos? If they are in a separate album, un-check that album in itunes followed by hitting apply. Once itunes does its thing, re-check that album, followed by hitting apply. See if they sync now. If they are all lumped together, just try syncing again...although without deleting the cache again that might not work, but give it a go anyway.

My new imac won't read all the data on my dvd r

I burned some photos onto a DVD R using Nero on Windows XP.
My new mac will read the disk and some of it's contents but not all???
Any ideas?

It could depend on what format the content is that is not readable - if you have access to the Windows machine, you could check on the format (and/or know the format if you burned it)? Is it just .jpeg's? Or did you make a slideshow resulting in an mpg2 possibly? In that case, you'd need to buy the MPEG2 Playback Component from the Apple Store (less than $20) because Quicktime can't read that format without the playback component.
Can the DVD be played in a regular DVD player?

Aperture won't export all photos to Mail

Most of the time, Aperture won't export all my chosen photos to Mail. If I chose 8 photos, it may only export 4 of them and no matter what I do, nothing changes. Tried it on Entourage and it was exactly the same. Size is not the issue, I'm sending them in small sizes and the total attachment is about 1 MB. Anyone had this issue and know what to do? I do have NIK plug ins installed if that helps any.

I would suggest you do a library repair to see if that clears it up.

Aperture won't detect all photos from Camera

Hi everyone, i have got an annoying problem when trying to use aperture
My system: 27inch iMac, Snow Leopard 10.6.2, Aperture 2.1.4
Camera: Canon 5D MK2
I went out to film a wedding, and took about 1000 photos, when i came home and connect my camera to iMac via USB, and click IMPORT, aperture starts to show the pics from the camera..
However, it only found about 400 pics in the camera..
I have to unplug USB, quit aperture, and restart.. it found about 700
again, it found all that 1000 photos
why is this? anyone had this problem before? Thanks

Can't offer you a solution, but I can keep you company.
Had this issue myself with a 400d since I converted to Mac. Always takes 2 attempts to import all photos. Installed SN before I installed Ap so can't give you a before and after scenario. However, I have tried different memory cards, USB cables and USB ports on my MBP to no effect.
All photos will import from the camera to Paint Shop Pro or to proprietary Canon s/ware on a PC & I have no issues importing from USB sticks. So to my mind that narrows it down to an Ap specific issue. I've endured the problem as I've been saving to upgrade my cam body for 10 months & hoped to buy my way out of the extra step in my workflow. However, guess which cam body I was going to go for?!

ITunes won't sync all photos in album

I've got an iPhoto album with 280 photos in it. iTunes will only sync 10 of those photos - any ideas or solutions appreciated. iTunes nor iPhoto is displaying any error messages during sync.
Im trying to sync to an iPad2 with OSX 10.7 through iTunes 10.4.
Thanks, Paul

I managed to solve this myself - not sure how exactly, but I did the following -
deleted 'albumdata.xml' and 'albumdata2.xml' from the iPhoto library
deleted the iPod photo cache from the iPhoto library
reopened iPhoto which recreated the albumdata xml files
synced the iPad to remove all photos
synced the iPad to add all the selected photo albums
Weird process but fixed my problems.

ITunes won't sync all photos

Well, i keep my iPhone photos backuped on my mac with iPhone and delete them from my camera roll after the download.
I have now 524 photos/videos in the library and thats what it says in iTunes too, but whenever I sync my device there are only 432 photos on my iPhone.
It is really frustrating, because I want to have all my photos with me on my iPhone all the time.
What to do?
Is it a problem of my iPhone or my Mac or even with the photos/videos in my library?

How to get ALL photos off iPhone and into iMac?

I hope I can describe this clearly.
I have close to 1000 photos on my iPhone 5s, all in different albums. I want to get ALL of them off the iPhone and backed up into my iMac so I don't lose them when I upgrade (which has happened before.) The albums I seem to have the biggest problem with are the ones that came over when I went from a PC to a Mac about 2 years ago and were in albums in my Kodak Easy Share. I can't get iPhoto to recognize these photos/albums so I can move them from the iPhone. Honestly, I'm not even sure how I got them from where they originated into my iPhone. I'd thought I'd lost them so when they popped up on my iPhone I refused to even update my phone for a while, I was so afraid to lose them.
I tried using Image Capture and it only recognized 176 photos on the iPhone.
I went into settings on my iPhone, into camera and photos, and saw that iCloud Photo Library (Beta) was "OFF." I clicked "ON" and got the message "Photos synced from iTunes will be removed. Syncing photos via iTunes is not supported when include Photo Library is turned on. 833 photos will be removed."
I hit cancel.
If I connect my iPhone to my Mac, and check off "Sync Photos" it appears that it's going to put photo's in iPhoto on my computer on my phone, so that isn't what I want either. I've tried Googling this, and searching on the Apple site and I can't find anything like this. Similar but not quite the same.
I also read (I think) that the iCloud would delete my photos in 30 days so I'm not sure what the value of backing them up to the iCloud is.
I've used Finder to search Kodak, Easy Share, Kodak Easy Share, in case these photos are somewhere else on the iMac that I'm not aware of, most likely due to user ignorance.
My screen is cracked, I'm going to need to upgrade soon, and I don't want to lose valuable photos again.
Thank you!

Thank you to all for this info. Discouraging, but finally I can stop banging my head on the desk trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong.
I do believe that when I synced my iPhone at some point in the last 2 years, I pulled all the photos OUT of iPhoto and then it deleted them. Which is most likely why the older Kodak photos that I am almost 100% certain were in iPhoto are now gone. How/when they ended up on my iPhone I don't know because I swear they suddenly appeared there a few weeks ago.
Since the old PC is gone (accessible but wiped clean & restored to original factory settings) and Easy Share is no more, I will have to explore outside options to get those photos off the iPhone somewhere. Online photo storage sites have been suggested. Archaic as it is, I wish I'd just put them all on cd's.
Using the info provided, I did SUCCESSFULLY get all 237 photos off of my iPhone 3. (yes, I still have it.) Now I know better and will never ever sync my photo's in iTunes again.
Thank you all again!!
***Addendum: ALL answers helped, but apparently I can't indicate that.

SONY DVD-RW DW-U10A not reading SOME DVDs, reads ALL CDs and other DVDs

I have a SONY DVD-RW DW-U10A. It reads and writes all CDs, and reads commercial DVDs, like movies. HOWEVER, I am trying to install a new application (Halion Symphony Orchestra) and it won't read the Install DVD, nor will it read an old Data DVD it used to read ALL the time.... is there new firmware after the 2005 update they did? I REALLY don't want to have to replace. I seriously doubt it needs cleaning since the DVDs/CDs it reads are so specific, and I don't really think it needs replacement for the same reason. What's going on?

Is your problem with a Mac Pro, or a MacBook? Your profile says Mac Pro, yet you posted to the MacBook forum.

HT201317 I need to get all photos off old iphone

I need to get all my off my old iphone. i got a new one today

Save any photo stream photos to the camera roll, then import the camera roll photos to your computer, as explained here so they are backed up: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
Then back up your old phone, either to iCloud (if it still has service) or to your computer using iTunes. Then restore this backup to your new phone to transfer your camera roll photos, text messages, app data, settings, apps and other purchased media, etc. More details here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.

Drive won't read ANY cd's or dvd's; only ejects them!!

Help! My Cd-Rom drive will not read any cd's or dvd's. However, it will allow blank cd's to stay in and be burned onto...sometimes.
When I put in a disc, it tries to read it and then spits it back out. I have tried all forms of cd's and dvd's (even discs with other programs) and the same thing happens. I can hear the disc spinning, and the laser moving, but the noise stops and the disc gets spit out. _Any suggestions????_

Hi, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I;m hoping it might just be a corrupt file or something... since it accepts blanks occasionally.
What are the settings in Sts Prefs>CDs/DVDs? I think I'd change the settings for a try.
If you haven't done any maintenance latly...
Could be many things, but it's best to start with these two steps, which may fix it also...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, *you must select your language first.)*
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
Then Safe Boot off the HD & use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, reboot once more.
Safe Boot... holding Shift key down at bootup.
It'll be a god test whether it's the drive or the OS if it can or can't boot with the C key down.

Mi Superdrive won't read any Audio CDs or DVD-R

Hello, i have read that many users may experience same problem as i. My Macbook Pro mid 2009 suddenly stopped reading any audio cds or dvd-r,it just reads DVD movies or programs, i wonder how can i fix this trouble.
Does my superdrive needs to be replaced?
Does anyone have found a way to get this solved?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers

If you are under AppleCare, ask for them to fix it.
If you are not under AppleCare, it may just need a drive cleaning. I can't recommend any specific cleaners, but do know some work, at least as long as they meet these requirements:
