New photos from my iPhone are not appearing in new OS X photos app. Why not?
Do you have the Photos/iCloud preference pane setup for My Photo Stream and Photo Sharing?

When importing photos from my iPhone black boxes appear in place of random photos in the iPhoto library and in Photostream. It has no apparent pattern, the photos are just blank. It's not just icons, when I go to edit the photos externally in Photoshop it opens an image filled with nothing but black.
This is more than annoying. It's effectively deleting photos I'm taking on vacation and so forth.
Anyone?The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, 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.

photos from my iphone are not going over in icloud to my ipad? both have photostream on any ideas?
Are these photos that were on your iphone before you set up photo stream? If so, too late. Only photos taken after setting up photo stream are synced.

My iphone storage is full due to my large photo library. As I want to go on taking more photos, if I back up my phone to icloud, can I then delete all my photos from my iphone to make room for new photos? Or will the next time I back up lose all those previously backed up as it is a 'new' set of data?
I just want to find the easiest and safest way of not losing all my photos while being able to take more than my iPhones storage worth as it is already full - can someone help me please? I thought icloud was the solution to not uploading my photos to the mac but I'm not sure if the way it's going is working and don't want to delete photos or lose my phone and then find out what I'm doing isn't actually storing my photos permanently. ThanksHey EmilyEliza,
As you are clearly aware, it is important for you to have backups of your important data, including all of these photos you are currently keeping on your iPhone. While it is possible to use iTunes or iCloud to do backups of your iPhone, the problem becomes how to access those backups if you have deleted the photos from your iPhone. Once you have done the backup and then removed the photos from the iPhone, the only way to access the photos is by restoring the backups to the phone. See this article for information about backups made from the iPhone -
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
If you want to easily access the photos once they are off of the iPhone, another approach to this would be to import your photos from the iPhone into an application on your Mac, such as iPhoto. To learn how to do this, use the steps in this article -
Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
Once those photos are on your computer, it is still important to back up those photos to somewhere else, so you can be sure of their safety before removing them from the iPhone. Your Mac’s Time Machine application is one method of doing this -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Happy computing,

How do you email photos from an iphone to a business email so that the photo shows up as an attachment vs. a part of the body of the email?
Eric, thanks for the info about the pictures, it worked. The mail icon is not the one that came with the mac(it looks like a stamp with an eagle) this appears at a notepad with a ruler,paintbrush and pencil. I can not open it, I did not download it and now I can not turn off the computer with shutdown I have to manually turn if off by pressing the power button. This can not be normal. Any suggestions. thanks, Ellen

When I try to purchase Mountain Lion i get an error message: "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed."
I can purchase other apps, why not Mountain Lion. I get the same message on my wife's IMAC.The only thing that worked for me was to boot in safe mode.
Power down. Then press power button and hold 'shift' key until grey screen with progress bar appears... Once booted and logged in just open safari and browse to applestore.
No trouble at all once I did this.
Hope it helps. -
Having had an iPhone for some time, I recently purchased an iPad. Everthing has been set up correctly in terms of iCloud, this was checked by Apple today, the set up in iTunes relating to photos says sync all, again I think this is correct.
However, some photos from my iPhone taken before I purchased the iPad are sinking to the iPad and others are not. I have no idea why and would be really greatful for any insights on this matter.
Furthermore, I have since deleted some photos from my iPhone but these still appear on my iPad and I am unable to delete them.
Thanks for your help! It's driving me nuts!
E.Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want, sync

When transferring photos from my Iphone to my pc = no new photos found on Iphone
I want to transfer my photos from my Iphone to my pc. My computer recognizes the Iphone, but always says that he can't find any new photos on the Iphone. Eventhough there are hundreds of new photo's. Any help?
Currently there's no way to get edited photos from an iPhone to a Mac except to email them to yourself. With the introduction of the iCloud Photo Library then edited versions can be synced between devices.

If my photos from my iphone are on icloud, do i need to keep them on my phone?
I can't download OS7 because I don't have enough storage on my phone. If my photos from my iphone on on icloud - do I need to keep them on my phone?
You can delete any tracks you do not wish to have on the iPad and redownload them at any time. There is a setting you should be aware of, as well as a quirk (lets say design flaw):
Settings app > Music > Show all Music. This either exposes (if tuen on) or hides (if turned off) the un-downloaded tracks in Match. I have around 17,000 tracks in Match and find it useful to turn this off to facility easily locating albums already on teh device.
If you choose to stream a track rather than downloading first, it will actually download teh track. Once this occurs, you cannot delete it by swiping. teh only way to remove it is to delete all tracks from the device via Settings app > General > Usage > Music. A bit of a pain and my only real complaint with iTunes Match. -
After loading my photos from my iphone to my mac iphoto it gives me the option to delete photos on my phone. When I click to delete the photos do not delete from my phone. I am out of storage due to I can not delete photos from my iphone.
That problem is probably with your iPhone and not with iPhoto.
But try to download again to your Mac, this time use "Image Capture" instead of iPhoto.
Launch Image Capture from your applications folder.
Connect your phone to a USB port.
Select all the photos in your camera roll to be deleted.
Then press the "delete" key.
If there are photos on your iPhone that have been synced with iTunes, they can only be deleted by syncing again and deselecting the albums:

If even Image Capture cannot wipe your Camera Roll, you need to trouble shoot your iPhone. Try the three R's, reset, restart, restore. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281 -

I have iCloud Photo Library Beta on my iPhone 6. Can I delete photos from my iPhone and have them remain in my Photo Library?
Yes, that should be possible.

My computer has changed how it accepts photos from my phone. They used to post into a library by the month and year, e.g., "Feb 2014 photo stream," but now all of the photos from my phone for the past year or so are lumped together into the "Shared" section under "photo stream." I did not put them there (that I know of) and now don't know how to get them out and into a library where I can categorize them.
The monthly events "Feb2014" will show you all photos that have been imported from "My Photo STream", if you have enabled "Automatic Import" in the "Preferences > iCloud" tab.
The albums you are seeing under "iCloud" are the "Shared Photo Streams" and "My Photo Stream". To import from your "Shared Streams" drag the photos frommthe Shared Streams album to the Projects in the library panel. -
Hi, everyone! I don't know if this question has been answered, but I recently lost my photos on my iPhone.
My iPhone memory was full, so I decided to transfer some of the photos on my iPhone onto iPhoto to clear up some space. (In hindsight, I probably should have transferred all of the photos AND I should have backed up my photos on iTunes regularly). Anyway, after transferring some of the photos, I selected the "delete imported photos" option on iPhoto. After unplugging my iPhone from my laptop, my Camera Roll looked like this:
There were only about 5 photos left and these odd video icons that were inaccessible. I was only able to transfer photos from January to March 2013. I'm missing all of my photos from March to December 2013. I also checked the amount of space I had left on my iPhone, and the amount of free space I have now is a few gigabytes more than I had before the photos went missing, so I'm guessing my photos were deleted.
I tried to look for a solution online, and I didn't really find any threads that talked about this specific problem, but I tried the suggestion of one article (albeit the article wasn't exactly about this problem) to delete these three files from my PhotoData. It made the inaccessible video icons disappear, but my photos are still nowhere to be found.
Does anyone know why this could have happened or how I can retrieve my photos? Has anyone encountered this before and has found a solution? I would really like to retrieve my missing photos. Thank you!probably a question for the iPhone forum since restoring photos on the iPhone does not involve iPhoto at all

Since I've transfered all my photos to my computer & added the files that I'd like on my phone in iTunes I'd like to delete the photos from my camera roll on my phone, but there are a lot and I'd like to be able to do it quickly. Is it possible to do this with out having to put each on into the trash on my phone?
*correction*
Arrow in bottom left allows you to multi select. After you choose your photos, you can hit the delete button that appears in the bottom right hand corner. Or, you can hit the cancel button in the rop right and not delete them
