Difficulty importing from iPhone 3GS
Forgive me if this is a repeated topic...
I have a first-gen MacBook Pro, running iPhoto 6 and OS 10.6.6. Anytime I try to import photos from my iPhone 3GS (running OS 4.2), iPhoto will import a few pictures and then freeze and not import any more.
I read somewhere that the problem may be with photos stored on my iPhone that did not originate there. Is this what is causing the problem and if so, how do I easily tell which ones those are? There's currently almost 2000 photos stored on my iPhone, all but which a handful I've taken myself.
Thanks for your help!
1. iPhoto will only try to import pictures in the Camera Roll on the phone. The fact that you have all those others should not affect it
2. Try using Image Capture to do the import. If that works, then the problem is with iPhoto; if not, it appears the problem is with the phone. Also, if it works, you can then import those pics from your hard disk into iPhoto

Import From iPhone 3GS Directly Into iMovie '09?
I don't think this is possible. Can you import from your iPhone 3GS directly into iMovie '09?
With my iPhone 3GS docked, if I go to File > Import from Camera… the only device I get is my iMac's iSight camera. Why doesn't the iPhone 3GS show up?
Yes, I know you can import videos into the Finder using Image Capture. And you can import them into iPhoto and THEN into iMovie. But how come you can't go directly from your iPhone 3GS into iMovie '09?You right about the iPhone 3Gs work-flow:
_ Connect your iPhone 3Gs to your Mac
_ Launch iPhoto
_ Import the iPhone 3Gs videos using iPhoto
_ Launch iMovie
_ iMovie automatically detects the videos from iPhoto & requests if you want to Generate Thumbnails
_ Then go to the iMovie > Event Library > iPhoto Videos -
Importing from iPhone 3GS issue
When I attach my phone to lightroom 3 it recognizes the device in the import screen but it does not show any thumbnails as available. When I try to import the images it will not do so and says they are unreadable.
I'm sure I'm missing something (hopefuly obvious) here as to how to do this and would apprecciate any help.
Thanks in advance.

How do you transfer music from iPhone 3Gs to Windows PC.
Old windows pc crashed. Do not have back up. How do I tranfers music from iPhone 3Gs 16M to new windows PC. 99% of music was ripped CD's.
The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. This is just a small selection of what's available, you can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
Senuti Mac Only (Currently only the beta version is iPod Touch & iPhone compatible)
PodView Mac Only
PodWorks Mac Only
iPodDisk PPC Mac Only (experimental version available for Intel Macs)
TuneAid Mac only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac & Windows
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
Floola Mac & Windows
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay. -
Importing from iPhone 4 - ORIENTATION
When I import vertically oriented video from my iphone 4, iMovie re-orients it horizontally. Now everything is sideways. I didn't have this problem when importing from my 3GS. Anyone else dealing with this? Any suggestions? Thanks!
To use a printing metafor, iMovie always works in "landscape" mode. So if you shot the video in "portrait" mode it will be turned 90 degrees.
EDIT: I was notified about this thread since I got the following e-mail:
"You have requested mail to be sent to you when messages to the Apple Discussions *forum "iMovie HD 6"* are posted. BigRed27 posted "Importing from iPhone 4 - ORIENTATION" on Oct 17, 2010 9:44:01 AM."
But this thread is in the "iPhone 4" forum, NOT the "iMovie HD 6" forum. What gives???
Anyway, my statement about iMovie is about iMovie 6 (and earlier). -
I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6. Everything converted fine. Yesterday I deleted an app in error. When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion. Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?
Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

I switched from iphone 3GS to an iphone4. Now itunes won't sync my apps, music etc? I'm using the current version of itunes for win7.
I believe you have to authorize the iPhone 4 in iTunes

Transferred from iPhone 3GS to 4. Backed up and restored smoothly. Still getting a "no service" message in the upper left corner of new phone. Help?.....
Sounds like your iPhone was hacked to unlock and now updating locks back to the original carrier.
Where did you get the iPhone? -
Upgrating from iPhone 3gs to ios4
Hey I am upgrating from iPhone 3gs to ios4 but I have noticed that the sim card are not the same . I am living in Lebanon middle east theirs isn t any micro sim card by the company but some friends told me that you can cut the old one to fit the ios4 is this true or theirs is another thing I have to do ?
Rami SabaiOS4 is firmware update 4.0, which will be pre-installed on the iPhone 4 and will be available as a firmware update for the iPhone 3G and 3GS on 6/21.
The iPhone 4 uses a micro-SIM card. I've seen some discussion about cutting a standard size SIM card down to the size of a micro-SIM card to be used with an iPad. If your carrier does not provide a micro-SIM card, they must not be an official carrier for the iPhone and if not, you have no other choice but to cut down a standard size SIM card to the size of a micro-SIM card. -
MMS video from Iphone 3GS to Iphone 3G
I know we can send pictures from Iphone 3GS to Iphone 3G, but can we send videos from 3GS to 3G. I wonder because the 3G doesn't have the video feature and therefore, I suspect it won't be able to play the video. Someone knows anything about this?
Thanks in advancethe 3G doesn't have a video RECORDING feature..... why would that prevent the 3G from being able to play videos? playing videos and capturing/recording videos are two completely different things.
you suspect wrong. -

Syncing Apps from iPhone 3GS to 4S
Hey folks,
I recently upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4S. I synced up my 3GS to iTunes and then connected my new phone. When I synced them I chose the restore from existing option. This worked great and I have all of my messages, email account settings, Photos etc etc. However, None of my Apps have been transferred to the new device. How do I get all of my Apps from the 3GS to the 4S??
Any help would be great!
