Disconnected iPhone from iPhoto during import. Can't close window now

I recently accidently imported some of my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto on my MacBook Pro. During that process, I wasn't aware that I was actually importing my photos until I disconected my device. I tried closing the window for iPhoto, but it said: 'Please wait for import to complete.' I tried shutting down, logging off, and even restarting. The same windows keep on popping up. Once I connect my device, the whole window is frozen, and my iPhone won't import my photos anymore. What should I do?

try Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

Force Quit the application from the Apple menu.

Trying to import pics from iphoto to imovie- can't import the PSE modified pictures. I see them in iphoto.

Drag the PSE modified pictures from iPhoto to the Desktop. Open them in Preview then save as jpegs (File > Export - then choose Format JPEG). They may already be .jpg files, but are not readable by iMovie. Exporting them from Preview may fix this. Import the saved files to iPhoto - they should now work in iMovie.

Transfer Video to iphone from iphoto

what is the easiest way to get video clips onto the iphone from iphoto? keeps on saying cannot play video on iphone. tried putting in itunes and that didnt work either. video is from a flipvideo, goes automatically into iphoto, can easily put into imovie or itunes if that helps, any other suggestions would be great. iphone is a 3GS

It needs to be converted to a format that's playable on the iphone. These are the only supported formats:
Video formats supported: H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats.
Once converted, add it to your itunes library & from there you can sync to your phone. Handbrake can do the conversion for you automatically & has presets for the iphone:

Portrait-mode images from iPhoto get imported unrotated as landscape

hi there
when i imported my iphoto library i noticed that portrait-mode (upright) images from iPhoto get imported unrotated as landscape.
if i had edited them in iPhoto i get in aperture a stack with the original wrongly in landscape and the edited one correctly upright.
seems to be the case that aperture does not handle the EXIF orientation tag properly.
anybody an idea what i can do?
thanks, olli

So, iPhoto *does not* respect the Exif tag, just like I said. When it imports a photo so tagged it creates a new version and that's what you are seeing - tagged iPhoto Edited. The Original file (including the Exif rotation instructions) is not actually touched - non-rotated.
This is by design.
Apps like iPhoto and Aperture don't respect these tags because of the apps that integrate with them. If, for instance, you pulled a Rotate-Tagged image from your Library to a Pages document then the result would be the wrong way round in Pages, as it, and most other applications, are not aware of Exif display tags.

I need to make space on my Mac. If I copy a folder from iPhoto on to a hard drive, then delete it from iphoto then import it again, does it retain all my editing? It does not seem to retain Faces info and I have spent hours and days naming people :(

There is no way to export Faces information.
I'm not sure why you would do this:
If I copy a folder from iPhoto on to a hard drive, then delete it from iphoto then import it again,
If space is an issue then move the whole Library to an external drive:
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

I can't trasfer music from my library in itunes to my iphone 3GS. A black ring with a line through it comes up when i try to move music onto my iphone from itunes. How can I fix this so that I can load my phone with music?

How are you trying to transfer it and what are your setting on iTunes. I'm not on a computer that has iTunes at the moment so I'm going from memory and similar issue. If iTunes is set to sync music then I don't think you can select and drag, if set to manual manage music then you can. Also make sure you are dragging to music on the iPhone.
Hope this helps

You can buy a factory unlocked on direct from Apple sim free, make sure you get the right one and not just a contract free one. I am sure one of our US members will be able to give you the price.

How to disconnect iPhone from iPad

Settings -> Messages -> Send and Receive -> uncheck your email which is likely the Apple ID with which you are signed into your other iDevices
This will stop your iMessages to your devices
However if you are referring to SMS texts alone - are they forwarded by any chance?

I bought a new computer running Lion 10.7.3 and transferred my applications and files from my old Mac using migration assistant but I can't find/transfer my photos from iPhoto and I can't find my old documents such as previous tax returns.

Look for them on your old computer, when found copy the files to a USB drive and move them to the new computer.

As long as it is sim free with no subsiby to a carrier, then yes you can slot any sim in and use it anywhere. And yes the Apple stores in the UK sell factory unlocked phones as long as they are not connected to a carrier as Apple sell those as well.

Get SIM from the carrier who sold the iPhone.
Or Get it unlocked from them if they offer unlocking service.
If it is from SoftBank, they don't.
