Do some photos get an album tag at import from iPhone?

I use Smart Album to find photos not organized into albums.  But some freshly imported photos don't show up in it.  Do they get an album from the import from iPhone?  It's weird, about half of the photos in any given import will be this way.

The shouldn't.  If you drag a photo or group of photos into the Album section during import a new album will be create for them as well as an event.  But normal importing shouldn't create any albums.  It could be that the smart album is "stuck" and needs a little push. Try editing the smart album, i.e. add another criteria, remove it and then save to see if that will jump start the newly added photos.

  • HT4858 why am I getting an error message while importing from iPhone photo stream to iMac ?

    I have not shared any photo for a few months.  I tried to import photos into my iMac from iPhone photostream and I get a message saying "an error occurred while importing photo, please try again later".  What am I doing wrong ?

    There's no need to import photos from your iPhone to your iMac. Photostream is synced automatically via iCloud on Wi-Fi.
    On your iPhone, tap Settings > iCloud
    Make sure Photo Stream is switched ON.
    On your iMac, open System Preferences > iCloud
    Make sure Photo Stream is selected.

  • Hi, Does anyone know how to get all album art to import from Itunes.

    My Itunes Library/Media states that all album art is present and accounted for but when I sync with Itunes half of my album art on the Ipad is blank.

    Hi WIll_Maveric
    To get album art to an album on iTunes:
    Go to iTunes
    Right Click on the album you want to get the art for
    Click album artwork
    If the songs/album can be found on the iTunes database it will add automatically
    If the songs/album cannot be found on the iTunes database it will not add automatically, so I would suggest you go to the internet find the image.
    Copy it and then go into iTunes
    Right click on the album/song
    Click on Get Info
    Click on Artwork
    Paste the image into the box (Command v) or (Control v)P
    Then click OK
    Go to your device and sync it again
    You will have the artwork there.
    Many Thanks for your question and allowing me to help you today.

  • Imported photos, transferred some photos to new album, deleted originals, ones in album are gone. How do I retreive them?

    Imported photos, transferred some photos to new album, deleted originals, ones in album are gone. How do I retreive them?

    Check the iPhoto trash - if they are there select them and right click and restore to library
    If they are not there then they are gone
    You really should take the time to learn how to use iPhoto - photos exist only in one place  - in your events - albums, keepsakes, etc are just pointers to the actual photos in the event - deleting from an album does just that - deletes from the album - deleting from an event removes the photo and therefore all albums, keepsakes, etc
    watch the videos as a starter - iPhoto help menu ==> iPhoto help and watch the video
    also more details (for a previous version so some menu items are in different places but the concept is the same) - and it would be a worthwhile investment of time to take the iphoto tutorials - http://www.apple.com/findouthow/photos/ - they are very helpful and will save you a lot of time and frustration.

  • How do I put photos in an album and remove them from the camera roll?

    I would like to be able to move photos into an album and remove them from the camera roll. Is this possible?
    I take many photos of mundane things that I simply want to remember, such as serial number of products. I would like to save these photos for viewing, but I don't want them to appear in my camera roll, where I have to continuously scroll through many such photos to get to the ones that I want to view there.
    I know that Apple has a "hide" feature, but it doesn't actually do anything. When I press-and-hold on individual photos, the photos stay in the camera roll: they aren't hidden at all. It's not clear what the purpose of this function is at all.

    You don't do this, as the photos are in the camera roll.  That is where they live.  When you make an album you are simply making a list of pointer to your photos in camera roll.
    If you remove them from the camera roll, then they are gone. 
    Photos in albums are not in two places.  They are in only one place, the camera roll.  The album merely contains pointers to those pics, so that you can categorize them however you like.
    You should be importing these pics to your computer.  I find it far easier to organize my photos on my computer, then sync them to the iPhone.

    I am considering the purchase of an iMac or Macbook and want to know whether I can import my iTunes library of  +400 albums from my Windows PC over my Home Network?  300 of these albums have been imported from CD's, so would not want to have to do that again.

    Just copy the entire /Musci/iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
    The libraries will be identical (date added, ratings, artwork, etc.).
    You can do this easily over the network.

  • How do you get Photoshop Elements 9 to import from a scanner?

    How do you get Photoshop Elements 9 to import from a scanner?

    In Elements 9, you may need to copy the Adobe TWAIN driver, if your scanner requires it, from the optional plug-ins folder to the Import-Export folder in the main plug-ins folder.
    You will need to copy the plug-in Twain_32.8ba
    Copy from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 9\Optional Plug-Ins\Import-Export
    Copy to:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 9\Locales\en_US\Plug-Ins\Import-Export.
    N.B. on Windows 32 bit systems navigate to Program Files. Replace en_US with your own geographic location if necessary.
    On a Mac, go to Applications à Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 à Support Files à Optional Plug- Ins à ImportModules, and move the TWAIN.plugin from there into Applications à Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 à Support Files à Plug-Ins à Import Modules. For the App Store version, go to Applications and Right- click/Control-click Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Editor and choose Show Package Contents à Contents and move TWAIN.plugin from Optional Plug-ins à ImportModules to Plug-ins à ImportModules. N.B. If you see a message warning that plug-ins can't be modified. Click Authenticate and enter your Mac OS X account password -then move the plug-in.

  • Help! Sometimes CS6 don`t let us paint/draw on some IDs of a 3D Model (DAE imported from 3Ds Max)

    Sometimes CS6 don`t let us paint/draw on some IDs of a 3D Model (DAE imported from 3Ds Max) without any Reason. Is there a Shortcut for freezing IDs on 3D Models?
    We didn`t had that Problem CS4. Its happening without any Reason. While we are painting Textures on a Model its suddenly "freezes" the Polys with certain IDs. The IDs where putted in 3ds Max. Anyone know this Problem or may have a Solution for this? We tried a lot but couldn`t find a Solution. The only Thing we can do is reimporting the 3d Model again. Than it will work for a while till this Problem comes up again.
    HELP! thanks.

  • Get an error message when importing from iPhoto says, "There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need at least 44GB of free space."

    I get an error message when importing from iPhoto that says, "There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need at least 44GB of free space." the drive is empty, I just reformatted it to Mac OSX journaled.

    I'm guessing this is an extrenal drive, correct? If so make sure the library you're importimng into is really located on the external drive. By default Aperture creates its library in your home pictures folder.

  • Lost photo's importing from iPhone to iPhoto

    HELP!
    I imported about 40 photo's of a very precious event with my kids this morning, off my iPhone 4 into iPhoto 09 (version 8.1.2 (424)). I made the stupid mistake of saying "delete photo's off my phone" after the import (I thought I'd make it into an album and re-import).
    Photo's showed they successfully imported, I ejected my iPhone from iTunes and disconnected. I went to the "last import" in iPhoto, but it was very odd. It showed up at the top "Untitled Event - 1 Photo", but then had showed 38 items. Each one showed a thumbnail of the same photo, but was sized, scaled and oriented as per the actual real photo. Several videos on the import showed they were videos. When I clicked on a video, even though the thumbnail was wrong, it showed the correct video.
    Likewise if I clicked on any of the 38 photo's even though they all had the same (wrong) thumbnail, the correct photo came up.
    I tried to switch to the event view, and iPhoto froze. I waited 15 minutes to see if it could "unfreeze" but all I had was the spinning beachball. I had to do a force quit.
    I rebooted my whole mac, and opened iPhoto. Opens fine - but there is no indication of the 1 "event", or any of the photo's at all. On my iPhone, equally weird! The photo roll still shows that there are 38 photo's and videos on it - but they are all blacked out, and cannot be viewed.
    Help - the photo's had to have been imported, as I was able to view them at one stage - how can I find them?
    Cheers,
    Rob

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    Regards
