Drag/Drop Pictures from iPhone to MackBook

I'm having a heck of a time figuring out how to get pictures off my iPhone. (I've never used the camera before, so I know almost nothing about the workflow).
I tethered my iPhone to my MacBook. I then opened iPhoto on my MacBook. Once opened, it showed the 20 or so pictures that were taken on the iPhone. I pressed COMMAND+A (Select All), and then dragged the pictures to the destination folder on the MacBook. I'm fairly certain OSX picks up the action since there's a small badge by the cursor with the picture count as I drag around the screen.
Lo and behold, nothing gets transferred. I'm absolutely befuddled at the hardships the world's most advanced operating system is creating for such a simple operation.
Does anyone know how to put pictures where I want them?
Thanks in advance.

So I found I could Drag and Drop using iImage Capture.
Unfortuantely, I cannot delete the no-longer-needed photos using either iImage Capture or iPhoto.
How the **** does somebody delete the photos on the iPhone? Why the **** is Apple making this **** so difficult?

  • How to get pictures from iphone 4s to iphoto?

    I am unable to get the pictures from my new iPhone 4s transfered to iPhoto on my iMac (version 10.5.8).
    It does sync via iCloud to my iPad, but it will not transfer pictures to iPhoto when connecting the phone to my iMac. The phone doesn't appear on iPhoto... I don't have iCloud on my older iMac. It is not very impressive if you must have iCloud to be able to get pictures from iPhone 4s to iPhoto!
    Any ideas?

    I'm having the same problem.  I know that doesn't help you, but at least you know you're not alone.

  • HT1296 how can i sync every day pictures from iphone to mac?

    how can i sync every day pictures from iphone to mac?
    i can only sync my app via itunes, and the pictures from my mac to iphone, and not the opposite

    Which Mac OS do you have adn which iPhoto do you have?
    Do you see Photo Stream on the left side of iPhoto?
    Appletini6
    im pretty sure iphoto is for importing. icloud is for photo stream.
    Yes but iPhoto can import directly via Photo Stream.

    As an added note, if you are trying to use photo stream, that will only work on newly taken photos.  Existing photos when photo stream is turned on will not sync to the stream.  Use the connection to your computer as descibed in the link as the way to get photos to your computer.

  • How do i get pictures from iphone to mac?

    How do i get pictures from iphone to mac?

    If you want your photos to end up in iPhoto, just do a normal sync. If you don't want to use iPhoto, or if you just want to put your phone photos in a normal visible folder on the desktop, luckily when you plug in the iPhone a Mac sees it like a camera or card reader. This means the iPhone will show up in common applications that have an import-from-camera feature. I've copied photos off my iPhone using Apple Image Capture, PhoneView, and Adobe Lightroom, for example.

  • HT1420 how to transfer music and pictures from iphone to computer

    how to transfer music and pictures from iphone to computer

    If the music was purchased from iTunes then you should be able to copy them over to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases if you have iTunes 11 on your computer). If the music came from other sources and you don't have a copy of them anywhere else, then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which might be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    For photos taken with the phone then on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard, and on a Mac you can use Image Capture, iPhoto or Aperture : copying photos. To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • Drag & drop images from Finder into new Photoshop layer?

    Is it possible to drag & drop images from Finder into a new Photoshop layer?
    I can do it from a web browser, but not the Finder.

    >I couldn't find a way to do so in Bridge, but also I never use that program. Never got into Bridge's workflow. >
    I really do suggest that you re-visit Bridge especially the CS4 version.
    I just cannot conceive of trying to use a Digital camera, a Scanner or the Creative Suite programs without using Bridge and ACR.
    I can even use it to read PDFs and inDesign documents (all pages!) without opening Acrobat or InD..
    >I usually keep a "work" window open with all the files I am using for a project, so it would be far more handy to be able to skim them in the Finder.
    It is now far more effective and efficient to do that in Bridge than in the Finder.
    This is where you would find the new Collections feature to be invaluable:
    Just select all the images and other files connected to a project from any folder and drag their icons into the same Collection.
    You then have all aliases (previewable at full-screen slide-view size with one click of the space bar in CS4) to ALL of your files which are now visible in. and openable from, a single panel.

  • Can't drag & drop photos from iPhoto to Finder.

    (I'm using iPhoto 9.4.2, mac OS 10.8.3)
    I can drag & drop photos from iPhoto to the Finder once. It successfully copies however many photos I had selected to the folder I wanted them copied to. But then if I try to drag and drop any more photos, it won't let me - the cursor has a red bubble for qty. of photos and a gray NO symbol (circle with a line through it) where the Copy symbol should be (green bubble with plus sign in it).
    Don't want to do the "Export" feature - I want to drag & drop.
    Tried restarting iPhoto. Tried restarting my computer. Software is all up to date.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you!

    Sorry - but that is not currently an option - drag and drop (which is not a good way under any conditions since you have no control and simply get the preview of the photo) is either broken or has been removed - in any case no matter what you want it is not an option
    The only current option (maybe the only long term option - no one here knows) is to export - this is equally as easy and gives you total control of the quality of the exported photos, the metadata included and is much easier to place photos within a finder folder structure

  • HT201317 how do i restore a deleted picture from iphone

    How do I restore deleted picture from iphone 4s

    If you've previously synced the pictures to a computer (as is generally advised to archive them), then they are gone, unless you have backed up the device to itunes or icloud.  If so, you need to perform a restore:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your phone.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
    Note that you cannot restore just one file, it's all or nothing.

  • Spot on the photos- while taking pictures from Iphone 4s against bright light.

    Hello, 
    I am using the iPhone 4s.. n i have noticed lately that i get a spot on the photos while taking pictures from iphone 4s against light/bright light.  If I take a normal photo with the lens not facing directly to the light, I dont get the spot.  I have attached some of d pics taken by me both against the direct sunlight and one against the night street lights.  Please let me know if this is a minor issue or shall I get it replcaed..
    Appreciate your help in advance.
    Happy New Year 2012.
    Thanks
    Prakash

    There may be something corrupt in your camera roll, or a photo you saved from an email, text message or from the internet preventing them from importing.  You might try transferring them wirelessly to your computer using an app like PhotoSync.  If they transfer successfully, delete them from camera roll then take a new photo and see if iPhoto will import it now.
