How do I transfer photos from my iPhone to iPhoto?

I have a MAC desktop and have always transfered my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto with no problem. After several weeks of not transfering photos, I sat down to do so today. However, iPhoto does not show my iPhone in the "devices" menu as it usually did. I waited for quite some time assuming maybe I had too many pictures ... but it never showed up. I disconnected and tried two more times, each time with no success. I have not changed any of my settings and my phone was unlocked prior to being connected to the desktop. Any other suggestions?

Does your phone show up in iTunes? If yes, try to start iTunes first, after the phone is recognized close it again, then launch iPhoto and see if it is recognized.

  • How can I transfer photos from my iPhone to iPhoto without iCloud getting involved?

    Hi All:
    I would like to transfer photos to iphoto without iCloud synching.  Last time I synched my iphone to my laptop icloud changed my .mail account setting and moved/added folders within .mail.  It took me a very long time to figure out what happened.  I do not wish to fool around in Terminal either.

    Yes that is correct, thank you.  I knew how to do that, I was concerned iCloud would would then do some mojo to my lap top.  Apparently after syncing with iCloud once it's happy for a while.

    The devices are not designed for transfer of that kind.  Use Photo Stream as suggested by another poster, or transfer photos to your computer (a good idea anyway since they will be lost if your device needs to be reset), then use iTunes to sync them to the other devices.

    Photos can be retrieved from an iPhone like any other external storage device - connect it to your PC, open "My Computer", access the files. Otherwise you can also use iTunes.

  • How do i transfer photos from my iphone to icloud to free up space?

    How do I transfer photos from my iphone to the icloud so I can free up space?

    You can't use iCloud to store your photos in order to free up space on your phone.  The only photos in iCloud other than the ones stored in your backup are photo stream photos.   And when you use photo stream your photo stream photos will still be stored on your phone.  In other words, you can't post your photos in iCloud and view them from there without having them stored on your phone.  There are many other photo hosting services that provide this (such as Flikr, Smugmug, Picassa and others).

    You can send photos from your iPhone via email, drag the photos from the email window to the desktop then open in iPhoto.

  • How do we transfer photos from our iPhone to our larger 32g iPad mini while travelling?

    How do we transfer photos from our iPhone to our larger capacity iPad while travelling ?
    ANY INFO please,

    One way would be via a 3rd party app such as http://www.photosync-app.com  One advantage of that is that it claims to be able to transfer via Bluetooth so if you wouldn't have to find free wi-fi or use a lot of cellular data while traveling. PhotoSync seems to have a good reputation but there are probably other similar 3rd party apps.

    Anyone know how to transfer photos from ios7 iphone into iPhoto or Aperture on my OS 10.8 iMac?

    Thx.  I thought that was what the various manuals were telling me to do but it wasn't working.  Your confirmation was useful in that it prompted me to double check (again) my usb connection (in its highly inconvenient location in the back of my iMac).  Voila.  "Always suspect operator error."
