Error message when importing photos from iPhoto

I have been trying to import pictures from iPhoto and when I try to set the duration to about 7 seconds with 240 photos, it says
ERROR DURING IMPORT
The file could not be imported: There is not enough disk space left to import Macintosh HD/Users/........../Pictures/iPhoto Library/2005/07/11/030_30.JPG
Is there anyway I can import all of these files with a duration of around 7 seconds?

Hi Seth:
Welcome to the forum!
You might want to run a disk and permissions repair to find that extra space.

  • Image Capture sends error message when importing photos from my camera

    I tried to import photos from my Fuji FinePix JX600 using Iphoto. Received an error notice and was unable to import. Tried Image Capture and it imported 220 of 407 pictures and then sent an error notice. Very frustrated. It's a new camera and I never had any problem with my old camera. Can anyone tell me what the issue may be and how to resolve it?
    Thanks

    Good afternoon
    There seem to be a number of possibilities.
    Here is a thread that conatins a number of solutions.  The most common one is to load 50 pics at a time.

  • When importing photos from iphoto to Aperture....

    When importing photos from iphoto to Aperture 3 it shows two versions of each image. One is original and one is iphoto edited.  It shows this for every picture even if it was never edited in iphoto.  Has anyone ever experienced this?  Is so, what image should I use to edit in iphoto?

    This is asked and covered a lot here, a search of the list will bring up numerous other threads covering this. Also the More Like This box on the right side of the page will show you other posts on this topic.
    This post, Duplicates when importing from iPhoto is the most recent example.
    Briefly iPhoto took even the most trivial change to an image as an edit and created a new image. The most common reason for this is rotated images.
    As for which image of the two you want to keep, that's entirely up to you. If there is really no difference between the two then you can keep either it makes no difference.
    The thread I linked to above will explain how to use Aperture's filters to gather up all of one or the other.

  • My iphoto has an error message when transfer photos from my iphone?

    I have a MacBook Pro Mac OS X Version 10.6.8. Processor 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7. 4 GB memory  and an iPhone 4 - iOS 7.1.1 with 13.53 GB.
    I am due to upgrade to 7.1.2 now but developed problems with my iphoto and wanted to correct that first. I had a DVD running when I connected my iPhone for synching. I received an error message and my photos will not transfer. I tried several things: ejecting my iPhone and disconnecting and turning off and on my computer. 
    I have never had problems with the iphoto transferring my photos but now I get an error message. This is the message I get: "iPhoto quit unexpectedly." Then OK or Reopen.

  • Unknown error (-50) when synching photos from iPhoto

    Hi all,
    I got a new iMac couple of weeks ago. Everything works fine except for the synchronization of photos from iPhoto to my iPhone 4S and my iPad 4.
    When I select a folder to sync it works fine. When I select iPhoto as source (all, album, event, face) iTunes shows an error message that the iPad/iPhone could not be synced and the an 'Unknown error occured (-50)'.
    I am up to date with iPhoto, iTunes and Mac OS X.
    Any idea what the problem could be?
    Thanks,
    Tobias

    I don't want to know anything. You need to tell people that if they follow your advice they lose data - any edits or changes made to photos in iPhoto, any albums, books, slideshows etc they have made, any additional metadata they have added - places, faces, keywords, and, unless you're quite careful exporting, possibly some of the metadata added by your camera too.
    The very least you might do is explain the options in the Export dialogue, the implications of the choices made there and how they contrast with drag and drop.
    An iPhoto installation is made up of two quite distinct parts - the app and the Library. I know of no issue that has ever required nuking both. As you don't tell us what efforts you made to solve your problem I won't comment futher.

  • Error Message When Importing Bookmarks From A Network Share

    An error message is generated whenever I try to import bookmarks.html from a network share on kubuntu. This same operation is sucessful on the windows version of firefox.
    To replicate:
    The bookmarks.html is created by Firefox 3.68 on windows 7. And is saved to a network share location. When trying to import this file into firefox 3.6.8 on my kubuntu 10.04 machine, I get the error message/window titled: remote files not accepted. The message states: You can only select local files.
    If I copy bookmarks.html local to the kubuntu machine, it imports without error.
    On windows, I can import bookmarks.html from the network share without error.
    Does anyone know why I can't import across the network on the kubuntu version?
    browser being run on windows 7:
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8
    browser being run on kubuntu 10.04:
    Firefox 3.6.8 Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0.

    It appears to be any remote file, not just the bookmarks file. When trying to upload a file to a website, firefox threw up the same error:
    error message/window titled: remote files not accepted. The message states: You can only select local files.
    So what is it about files that are sitting on a server, firefox and kubuntu that causes this? I don't get the error message when using win7 on the same files.

  • Duplicates when importing photos from iPhoto to Aperture 3

    I have recently purchased Aperture 3 & am trying to import my events from Iphoto to A3 but each event I import has duplicates of EVERY image. Even if I have never edited the photo in Iphoto it always shows 2 photos of every shot? Any solutions to avoid this as it will be too hard to go thru each event & delete the duplicates. Too many!!

    When I check my system info it reads that I have  2 memory slots x 2GB (don't really know what that means) and I am running MacOS 10.7.4 yes. I have 63GB of 499GB free so nowhere near 30%. Explains why it is running slow I guess :-)
    So you have 4GB RAM, that should do if you do not run many applications in parallel, and you really need to free some disk space! There is a nice utility in the Applications > Utilities folder: Activity Monitor. Launc it and look at the runtime and memory usage. That will tell you if your system is running low on RAM. My MBP profited considerably from an upgrade to 8GB.
    I am trying to back up on a WD external drive USB.  I don't understand what a firewire port is?
    Firewire is a fast connection to external devices, and many external disks offer a firewire cable connection; the port usually is marked by a Y-Symbol:
    Leonie, I have read something about duplicate annihalitor (or something like that). Would it pay to run that on my Iphoto first and delete duplicates? Have u used that programme?
    I have never used it myself, but Terence Devlin recommends it frequently. It will find exact duplicates, if you imported the same image twice or made copies, but it will not remove the original masters of a version, afaik. Check it out here:
    Duplicate Annihilator:
    Can I store my library on my external HD and just access it each time I enter Aperture so that my Mac HD doesnt get overloaded?
    There is a better way in Aperture:
    What I do on my MBP with limited space is to keep the Aperture library on the System volume, but (most of) the original master image files on an external drive. This is what is called a referenced Aperture library. I set the Aperture preferences to enable the creation of Previews. THis way I can browse my images, tag them, and rate them with stars even if I am on the road. The images can be accessed from the Media Browser and used in other iApps or the screen saver. Only when I want to edit an image I need to connect the external volume and to mount it.
    To turn an image into a referenced image select it (or select several images at once) and from the main menu bar select: File -> Relocate master(s).  Then select a location where to store your masters on the external volume.
    I usually import the new images as managed (stored inside the Aperture library) and relocate them to the external volume when I am through with editing. Perhaps this kind of workflow will be suitable for you too. Bt do not forget to backup the master images on the external volume as well.

  • Error message when opening photo from Camera Roll

    I just updated to iOS 4.3
    Now, when I open a photo from camera roll it says "El formato de esta pelicula es incompatible", which means something like "The format of this movie is not compatible" (it doesn't matter if I try to open a photo or a movie).
    So I tap the "OK" button below the message and then I can see the photo.
    Any idea of what this means?
    Thank you!

  • Help - sporadic corrupted data when importing photos from iPhoto

    I am importing photos for a slide show, and every once in a while (frequency varies but sometimes as much as every other photo), I have a strange problem. Several frames will just be mixed up colors, nothing discernible at all, as if some of the data has been corrupted. Re-importing the photos usually solves the problem so I don't think it is any problem with specific photos. Any ideas? Thanks!
    Using iMovie HD 6.0.2, all other software is also up to date per Software Update

    ok, next idea:
    you're using an iBook => harddrive space is limited...
    tell us, how much free space is on your hd...
    you shouldn't "overcrowd" your drive, 80% filled should be max,
    because all apps use widely socalled "temp-files" - never seen in Finder, but neccessary (you probably have heard of that rule: iDVD needs 10 - 15GB to work smoothly...)

  • Error Message when importing songs from CD

    I am a newbie with a 30gb iPod video. I have been able to import multiple cd's to the iPod without any problem. I am now receiving the message "Some of the songs in the Itunes music library including the song "xxxx" were not copied to the iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod."
