Digital Camera is recognized but no photos are found

I just bought the referenced iMac. The computer recognizes my HP M537 Digital Camera, but does find any pictures. There were clearly 316 pictures on the camera, but iPhoto brought up a download page, and showed "0 Photos" on the screen.
I attached the same camera and cable to our Power PC eMac (1gb/1gb, Fall 2003) and low and behold, there were the pictues. I downloaded them to the eMac, and transfered them via a thumb drive.
Also, the machine does not recognize my laCie multiformat card reader(2004). I am not sure these two problems are the same.
Has anyone had a similar problem? Has anyone any idea what is up?

Did you try to manually "Add to Library" and drill down to the folder the images are stored on the camera?
Only problem I have had that's similar is putting older cd's that had files and only the folders show up and no files. My laptop PC sees them but the new iMac does not. Probably a compatibility issue with the drive and the cd or method the cd was burnt with but that's the only thing I have that's close.
I have had a mobile device not open iphoto and show 0 pictures until I do "Add to Library" and I drill down about 3-4 folders deep to pull my images out, so that's why I ask if you tried that.

  • Camera icon appears but no photos

    When I open iPhoto, the icon for my camera is already there, though not attached. When i do attach the camera the new photos I've taken do not appear for download.

    Launch system information from spotlight in the top right then check the USB catagory under hardware to see if the Camera is recognized at all.  Are yo uhaving trouble with any other USB devices?

    Try updating to iPhoto 9.4.1. If it's not appearing in your Software Update yet, try updating using a .dmg installer downloaded from the following page on the Apple website: 
    iPhoto 9.4.1
    From the release notes for the new version:
    What's New in Version 9.4.1

  • Is the Canon Powershot S2 IS Digital Camera compatible with an ipod photo?

    I'm going on a roadtrip to the northwest next month and was wondering if anyone knows whether the Canon Powershot S2 IS Digital Camera compatible with an ipod photo?

    You cannot, with a PC or a Mac, transfer photos from a camera directly to the iPod. You need to download the images from the camera to your computer first, then move the pictures from the computer to the iPod.
    Not quite sure about that - from the Apple Store (UK):
    Simply plug the iPod Camera Connector into the iPod dock connector, plug your camera’s USB cable and watch your images make their way to the iPod, ready to view in a slide show!
    Compatible with iPod with color display.
    Not compatible with iPod nano.
    Requires iPod software v1.1.
    See http://www.apple.com/ipod/compatibility/cameraconnector.html for supported cameras.

  • Yesterday i bought ipad4 i transfered photos from pc to ipad that it opened in ipad when i click slideshow everything went black. whenever i m opening the application(photos) full screen looking black but all photos are occuping memory.

    I have several thousand photos in several folders. I have noticed that whenever I want to change the folder used as the side show source, it takes the Screen Saver Preference pane a very long time to respond. It is as if it is scanning all the photos in the currently assigned folder in order to display them in the preview window provided, and it gets so dogged down doing that it can't respond to my clicks on the Choose Folder option.
    Assuming you don't want to redistribute your photos into a greater number of folders or subfolders so there would be fewer in each folder to process, you could try a workaround. Try moving your currently-assigned folder to your desktop temporarily, before opening the Screen Saver preference pane. If the preference pane can't find the old folder, it may immediately ask you to choose a new one. You could hopefully then do so, close the preference pane, and then put back the old folder.
    It's my understanding that there will be no future updates to Tiger, only security fixes.

  • I have deleted all my photos and videos from my camera role and all my photos are there and they are safe but my videos they are there but they dont play. it only shows a picture of it there is no way of playing them ... have i lost the videos then?

    someone please help i went to a concert and took tones of videos and pics but then when i got home my camera role was full so i looked on icloud and saw that everything has been saved on there so i didnt worry about deleteing all of my videos and photos but then when i did that ( always the way it goes ya dont reolize until its to late :@ ) all my videos wont play they have almost just turned into photos. you see the start image like on camera role thing but you cant click on it to play the video
    this is on my iphone 5 by the way

    Welcome to the Apple Community Diane.
    I find that shared video can be troublesome, a few haven't appeared to work as you describe but have done when I've looked at a later date. Hopefully they will work if you give them a bit longer. perhaps it would be a good idea if you make sure they are working before deleting them from the camera roll.

  • [solved] Digital Camera not recognized in device-manager

    My digital camera "Canon Powershot SX120 is" is not recognized by the devicemanager. I have read Digital Cameras.
    $ groups
    wheel storage users printadmin
    The "camera"-Group isn't needed anymore and this group doesn't exist on my system.
    The Powershot SX 120 has a  MTP/PTP connection mode (as the manual says). But:
    # mtp-detect
    Unable to open ~/.mtpz-data for reading, MTPZ disabled.libmtp version: 1.1.6
    Listing raw device(s)
    No raw devices found.
    gphoto succeed:
    $ gphoto2 --auto-detect
    Modell Port
    Canon PowerShot SX120 IS usb:002,019
    A gphoto --summary could be found here
    There is no udev-rule for this camera. If i create one while copying a rule from a similar camera from /etc/udev/rules.d/69-libmtp.rules, and store it into /etc/udev/rules.d/69-canon.rules, the device-manager shows up. My udev-rule:
    # Canon PowerShot SX120AX (PTP/MTP mode)
    ATTR{idVendor}=="04a9", ATTR{idProduct}=="31e0", SYMLINK+="libmtp-%k", ENV{ID_MTP_DEVICE}="1", ENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}="1"
    The device-manager shows me only the option to open with a file-manager. Doing so will result in an error:
    The file or folder udi=/org/kde/solid/udev/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8/ do not exist.
    With my udev-rule:
    solid-hardware listen
    Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceAdded(QDBusObjectPath)
    Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceRemoved(QDBusObjectPath)
    Listening to add/remove events:
    Device Added:
    udi = '/org/kde/solid/udev/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8'
    Without the active udev-rule, "solid-hardware listen" produces nothing, but
    udevadm monitor
    monitor will print the received events for:
    UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing
    KERNEL - the kernel uevent
    KERNEL[5077.662572] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8 (usb)
    KERNEL[5077.662655] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8/2-8:1.0 (usb)

    UDEV [5077.693035] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8/2-8:1.0 (usb)
    Don't know what to do ... is a udev-rule necessary to bring up the message from device-manger? Or is the Camera not recognized as a mtp-device (the Camera has no such settings)? How could i figure it out?
    With Digikam i could import Fotos, but i would do so with gwenview. I've tried to check it out with gwenview_importer:
    $ gwenview_importer --udi '/org/kde/solid/udev/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8'
    QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
    gwenview_importer: Missing required source folder argument.
      (don't care about the different udi, i took this example from a former try) but i don't know, how to find out where the "source folder" is ...

    I have solved this by making an extra udev-rule for my camera. See my adventure on forum.kde.org for details

  • Why is my photo storage full but no photos are displayed?

    I just deleted all photos manually from my iPad mini and then unsynced my photo libraries in iTunes but for some reason, under Settings->Usage->Photos and Camera, it states that there is still 3.3 GB of photos in my Photo Library. Does anyone know why my iPad mini is stating this and if so, how do I completely delete photos from my Photo Library?

    Go into photos, choose "albums", then "recently deleted".  Touch "select", then "delete all". Deleted Photos are kept in this folder for 30 days unless you manually delete them.

  • Why does my shutter button not work in tethered capture mode? Camera is recognized, but doesn't fire

    The shutter button does not fire the camera. My Canon 1ds Mark III and its settings are recognized, but the button does NOTHING. 

    Possibly the flex connector of the charging dock, flex ribbon (#4) is not perfectly seated down to the logic board.

  • Camera photos not syncing to photostream over wifi, but other photos are?!

    Hi all,
    I'm running a MacBook Pro 2011 updated to Lion OSX 10.7.2. iPhoto has been updated to 9.2 and my iPhone has iOS 5.
    iCloud is syncing my calendar, mail and iWork items with no problems. The phone and macbook are both connected to wi-fi on the same connection.
    The only thing that's not working is Photo Stream.
    It's turned on in the Mac settings pane and enabled on the phone. The strange thing is that if I take a screenshot on the phone or if I download a photo from the web (like wallpaper from an app), the photo will show in my photostream.
    If I take a photo with the camera on the phone, it isn't being sent to the cloud.
    Find My Mac, Mail, Calendar, iWork etc are all working fine. It's just this problem with the photos.
    Some advice would be very much appreciated.

    Hi yantaialec,
    Once you have insured WiFi is on and Photo Stream is enabled, the only other thing I can think of is to make sure the Camera App is closed for the photo syncing to work.
    From iCloud: Photo Stream Troubleshooting
    "Ensure that Camera app is closed on the device where you took the photo. Photo Stream will not upload photos from an iOS device until the Camera app is closed."
    You may even want to remove it from the Multitasking Bar just to make sure it's quit and see if it streams.
    What does tech support say?

  • Updated to Maverick, had a desktop folder for pictures I had transferred from my PC. That folder is gone, no icons in Pictures in Finder but the photos are still in images in All My Files! How do I get the organized folder back?

    I had transferred all my photo files from my PC when I got my Mac Air. They were in a desktop folder all nicely organized in files (event, dates, etc.) That desktop folder is now gone after the Maverick update. When I click on Pictures in finder it comes up empty (not even a link to Iphoto)  I had not put these pictures in iphoto yet. Before Mavericks when I clicked on Pictures the Iphoto icon and my folder showed up. My Iphoto itself is working fine and and those pictures are still intact. I know the pictures are on my Mac because they are all in Images, but they are no longer organized and are no longer in sequence. I would like to know if I my "intact" folder may still be somewhere on my computer. If not what is the best and most efficient way to get those photos from the images only file to Iphoto?

    I actually just noticed the "media" option is no longer listed along the left side of Finder. I think that is where I accessed iphoto and my other picture folder.
    There is no media option in the Finder. That only turns up in Open... Dialogues like this:

  • Some of my thumbnails disappeared, but the photos are still in the iPhoto L

    Can anyone help me to get my missing thumbnails back to the iPhoto window? Some of them disappeared for no apparent reason. The files themselves are still in the iPhoto Library folder (both original and modified folders), but they are not showing up in the iPhoto window as thumbnails. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks,

    I'm afraid it didn't work. When I launched iPhoto while pressing Option + Command, I was given 4 options:
    1. Rebuild the Photos' small thumbnails
    2. Rebuild all the photos' thumbnails (this may take a while)
    3. Rebuild the iPhoto Library database
    4. Recover orphaned photos in the iPhoto Library folder
    I've tried #s 1 and 2, and they didn't work. I'm not sure what options 3 and 4 mean, so I don't know if I should try them.
    Can anyone help? Thank you very much,

  • My printer -photosmart plus B210a prints but the photos are very very dark HELP please

    I have a Hp photosmart plus B210a just trying to print out some photos and they are very very dark The photos themselves are light and of a high Dpi any suggestions anyone ??? please they are of my son's wedding so are very important to me 

    What program are you printing from? What operating system? What are the printer settings for paper type and quality?
    If you are printing from a program that allows selection of CMYK or RGB printing then select the RGB setting.  Even though the inks are CMYK the driver is expecting RGB data.
