Help! importing troubles

please help.
i've recently received a samsung digimax i5 camera which doesn't come with mac software. i've been using iphoto but am having problems.
my camera is recognised and the programme knows how many photos there are to import. however, when i click import, either none or only a few photos transfer.
I then get a message saying "unreadable files, cannot import etc" with all the files listed being .jpg
However, if i am very persistent, by a process of stopping the importing. removing the camera, plugging it back in and importing again, i eventually get all the photos.
surely this means that they weren't unreadable in the first place?
i know i get there in the end but its so so frustrating as just to import a few photos can take upwards of half an hour.
please please help

Hi Kimbee. I have a Canon digital camera and was always having troubles downloading pictures or movies. Eventually one of the Canon help people suggested I go to a card reader instead. I have a card reader now (not that expensive) and have had no troubles since. Maybe this may help. Good Luck.

    OK, if this is a template file and you are trying to customize a single word, or a list of words that are always in the same places (I was thinking at first that you want to change words in one part of a paragraph if some other trigger word appeared), like a form letter that needs to have the recipients name inserted, then you can use either a custom text variable or Data Merge.
    For one-off production the variable is probably easier -- just redifine the text string  each time you make a new copy, but if you have a list of words and want to make a copy for each one in a single session, Data Merge would be more efficient.

  • LabVIEW Help Important Information Copyright page broken links

    None of the files or folders listed in the LabVIEW Help >> Important Information >>Copyright page are existing in my W7 64 bits LV 2013 installation:

    It's been a while since I installed 2013...
    But since you are mentioning it, I get the same page for LV 2014 Help, and sure enough, none of it matches anything I can find in the Program Files/National Instruments folder (obviously since it is shared by all versions).
    I HAD an installation error when installing 2014.

  • I need help importing navigation bars and rollover buttons from fireworks?

    I need help importing navigation bars and rollover buttons from fireworks, drop down menus and rollover states won't work!
    Thanks

    In my experience, the code created by graphics apps is less than satisfactory. And image based menus are very awkward for several reasons. 
    #1 If you decide to change your menu later, you must go back to your graphics app and re-craft the whole thing.  After 2-3 times of this, it gets old in a hurry.
    #2 Image based menus cannot be "seen" by search engines, screen readers and language translators.
    #3 CSS styled text menus are better for your site's visibility, accessibility and they are a snap to edit in Dreamweaver.
    That said, if you're still married to image based menus, use Fireworks to create images only. Use Dreamweaver's Image Rollover Behaviors to create your rollover scripts.

  • Mail 4.5 import trouble

    Mail 4.5 imports mbox files double up. The mbox files import trouble free into other mail programs, but not Apple mail? Does any one have a solution?

    Actually smaller attachments are downloaded automatically, or perhaps it depends on attachment type? 
    Try the same with say 2MB .PPT file .. email the file to yourself. It will come through as "click to download" icon (see image above). Trash the message (before SAVE or clicking on attachment), now try opening it in the trash or pulling it back to inbox and then open it. Attachment is gone and you get garbage - clearly extra data is there but is non-readable.
    Not a big issue for a single user - potentially very big issue for an admin supporting large number of end-users, some of which are recent Outlook transplants.
    Btw, I'm using IMAP server and I have enabled "Store deleted messages on the server"

  • Page import trouble

    Hi and thanks for previous answers, but my page import trouble continues.
    I have now compiled a class, myBean.class and placed it in this folder ...
    ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/peters/beans/
    when I use ...
    <%@ page import="peters.beans.*" %>
    Tomcat finds the path, but using
    <%@ page import="peters.beans.myBean" %>
    a class not found exception appears.
    I can�t understand why, it it something wrong with the public/private properties in myBean?
    This is the syntax ...
    public class myBean
      ��private String sName="Pette";
       public myBean()
       public String getName()
         return sName;
    Thanks for any answers.
    Have a nice day / reg. PG

    Jippy, I found a solution!
    First I added the line - package pg; - to the testBean class and placed the file in ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/pg
    The I used the following jsp-tags in my .jps-file
    <%@ page import="pg.*" %>
    <jsp:useBean id="theBean" scope="page" class="pg.testBean" />

  • PLEASE HELP! Trouble importing media used in Premiere CS6 into CC

    After infinitely trouble with stability in OSX Premiere CS6, I´ve tried to open my project in CC. I get a dialogue box when importing media with heading "Cannot Link Media" and saying "The selcted file cannot be linked because it has 2 audio channel(s) and the clip was created with 1 audio channel(s). Now, these clips had no issues in CS6, but after installing CC, I cannot open anything in CS6 and CC won´t, as stated, accept my clips. Now, I tried to uninstall CS6 to late reinstall it. But Adobe seems to have removed the installer, anyway I can´t find it. SERIOUSLY!. This is EXTREMELY frustrating. PLEASE HELP!

    I don't have any sure-fire solutions, but I do have a suggestion: rather than opening the whole CS6 project and going through the whole conversion process, try importing just the sequence(s) from the CS6 project into a new CC project. There are a couple of ways to do so: 1) File>Import, select "Import Selected Sequences," then pick the desired ones, or 2) drill down to the project in Media Browser, which will show you it's contents, then drag and drop the sequence(s) into the Project panel.
    I found a few bug reports in the same neighborhood. They were all fixed in the release you're using. But each was specific to a particular file type, so you may have hit on a case that we didn't exercise. It could really help us nail this down if you provided one small clip that CC is balking at and, ideally, a CS6 project containing that clip.

  • IPhoto Importing Troubles Help

    Hi Everyone,
    So I import photos onto iPhoto from my Gopro and the last imports were there. I wasn't thinking and forgot to put them into an album so when I imported more from another camera they replaced the old photos in the last import folder. So now the new photos are there and the others have vanished. Confusing I know but if you can help or have ideas that would be great thanks!
    mrbush_

    Right  --  Last import is obviously the "last import" so each time you import it changes - that is simply a view of the last import and has nothing at all to do with the photos in your library - the photos can always be viewed as events or as photos (at the top of the source pane on the left of iPhoto under "Library"

  • Help! Troubles with updating Lightroom 3.2 to 3.6 in order to import RAW files.

    I am trying to import RAW files into Lightroom 3 from my Nikon D7000.  I read that I need to update my Lightroom, so I downloaded the 3.6 version.  I restarted my computer and reopened Lightroom and it is still showing the 3.2 version.  How do I get Lightroom to update after the new version has been downloaded?  Once this problem is fixed, then will I be able to import my .NEF files from my camera into Lightroom?

    After downloading you have to install it. Did you?
    Cheers.

  • Need help importing Hi8 footage into FCE4

    Hi all,
    I have a Sony Digital 8 TRV310 camcorder. I'd like to be able to import the Sony footage directly into FCE 4 but am having trouble.
    I've successfully imported Hi8 footage from the TRV310 into FCE 4 in the past (it's been a couple years) but for the life of me I cannot remember how I did it (it had something to do with Easy Setup and choosing 'device control = none' or something like that. I can't seem to find that option anymore and the only 'device control none' is 'DV-NTSC DV Converter' and that selection doesn't work for the import).
    Here is the process that I am going through:
    1. I hook my Sony TRV310 up to my Mac Pro via a firewire 400 cable, turn the camera on and switch it to VTR (play) mode. I manually cue to the beginning of the footage I want to capture.
    2. Before attempting to import Sony footage into FCE 4 I go to 'easy setup' and dial in format=NTSC and use=DV-NTSC then click the setup button. I then go to file-->capture and a small window pops up indicating that capture is being initialized.
    3. The the 'capture window' pops up with preview screen indicating that 'preview has been disabled'
    4. I then hit the 'play' button in the capture window and then hit the 'capture now' button.
    A black window with 'Final Cut Express and Apple logo' pops up for a few seconds, then a warning window pops up which states 'this operation could not be completed as there is no video'.
    Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Dennis

    Sounds pretty close to me.
    Try starting a NEW Project the the DV Converter option selected , you may not have initiated the DV Converter option.
    Also there is no device control, so the Capture Now will not work, Start the camera manually and use the Escape key to stop capture.

  • Help importing SD video to FCE4

    I am trying to download SD video from a new Sony HDR-SR10 for editing in FCE. I have two main problems:
    1. It seems like the only way to get the SD video off the camera and into FCE is to go through iMovie. FCE won't let me capture it, and the Log/Transfer function only pulls off the HD video off the camera, not showing the SD video at all. I believe the SD video files are recorded as MPG files. So what I have done is download the SD video in iMovie and then export the clips as an XML file, then open in it FCE. The first question: is there an easier way to do this?
    2. Once I import the XML file with the SD video, I'm having trouble working with it. I have placed the XML sequence in the timeline and rendered it. I can then cut the video using the razor blade, but there doesn't seem to be any way to slice up the clips into independent clips that I can name and manipulate etc. I think this is because the XML file is coming in as a sequence rather than just video, but I am honestly so confused that I don't know what to try next.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    1. You need to convert the media. I don't know what iMovie does to it but it won't work in FCE as it is. You could use MPEG Streamclip to convert the media I think.
    2. XML import is for iMovie projects and brings in a sequence and the media. You should be able to put the clip in the browser, mark In and Out points, use the Blade tool, whatever you want in FCE. The media still may not be in the right format for FCE however. What are the specs of the media? Look in the QT player and get info for the iMovie ingest file. What exactly does it say?

  • Help - Import only new photos?

    IPhoto used to give me the option of doing this....how do I do this again? I would prefer not to have to Import every photo in my digicam everytime I Import new photos. Please help!

    Gee, apparently no one has.
    If it's any consolation, LOst6rL, I've got the same problem. My iPhoto 4 even goes to the trouble of ASKING me if I want to import photos from my camera that have already been imported, but then ignores my answer and re-imports duplicates.
    Then I have to "Select" all the duplicates, and hit "Delete." What a hassle.

  • Need help importing animated gif by ImageIcon in Japplet

    Hello. Im new to Java, but I want to import this animated gif with Java in a Japplet using ImageIcon, but it does not work and I would really appreciate if anyone could help me with this.
    import java.applet.*;                                   
    import java.awt.*;   
    import java.net.*;
         public class Bilder extends Japplet{                               
         public ImageIcon(java.net."http://pixelninja.se/kappawin.gif");
      Image[] bild = new Image[1];                            
      int nr=0;                                                
      public void init(){                                     
        setBackground(Color.black);                         
        bild[0] = getImage(getCodeBase(),"4a.gif");     
      public void paint(Graphics g){
        g.drawImage(bild[0],50,50,212,282,this);
    }

    You cant do animated gifs this way.
    Also you should remember that you cannot load images in to an applet if it is hosted somewere else than the host that hosts the applet.
    Esiast way to display an image icon with a animated gif will be creating a Image Label and adding it to the applet.
    Ex:-
    public class MyImageApplet extends JApplet{
       public void init(){
          getConentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
           URL imageURL = getClass().getResource("/myImage.gif"); 
          // Above image file should be in the code base or in the archive file of the applet
          getConentPane().add(new JLabel(new ImageIcon(imageURL)));
    }

  • Help importing a .swf file from Flash CS5.5 to After Effects CS5.5

    I am working on animating a person in flash.  I have a main timeline and then a timeline inside of a symbol so I can move
    the characters facial features (eyebrows and mouth etc) apart from moving his entire body.
    I want to have multiple scenes so I am importing all of the .swfs into After Effects and putting them together. 
    However, when I import the .swf into After Effects, it only plays what occurs in the main timeline
    and not the timeline inside of the symbol, so it is just the character moving without the facial movements.
    Is there a way to fix this or a better program to import the .swfs into and make the video?
    Thanks in advance.

    Here's the note from After Effects Help aboutt he limitations to SWF import:
    SWF (continuously rasterized) Note:  SWF files are imported with an alpha channel. Audio is not retained. Interactive content and scripted animation are not retained. Animation defined by keyframes in the main, top-level movie is retained.
    The limitation that you noticed---that only animation in the top-level timeline is retained---is not one that can be worked around without changing how your animation is set up in Flash.
