HT4859 Iphone pics downloaded to Mac iphoto

When i sync my phone with my mac & download my pictures into iPhoto, can i delete them off my phone without losing them?

If they are saved in your iPhoto events, yes.  If they are in your photo stream, it depends.  If you checked Automatic Import in iPhoto>Preferences>Photo Stream, yes.  If you didn't, then they would be deleted when you delete them from the photo stream album on your phone.

  • There are 3 users on my iMac.  how does each backup their iPhone and download pictures into iPhoto?

    There are 3 users on my iMac.  How does each backup their iPhone on iTunes and download pictures into iPhoto?

    If they are using three separate Mac accounts, then they have three iTunes libraries and three iPhoto libraries, so it just works.
    If they are trying to share one Mac Account, they probably want to switch to separate accounts.

  • Iphone pics not transferring to iphoto on my mac

    I have an Iphone 4 with iOS 6.1, I have a Mac OS X LION with 10.7.5.  Itunes 11.0.1. Iphoto 11'  9.4.2
    Everything is up to date, iCloud is turned off.  I sync the phone, and when I open up Iphoto is says I have no pics to sync.  It will not let me see my photos at all.

    You use PhotoStream
    As posted above the instructions for setting up and using PhotoStream are in the links I provided - have you read them?
    here are instructions for setting up iCloud on different systems -http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html
    Here are FAQs and troubshooting links for iCloud -http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Once you have set PS up then you may want to click the bos in the iPhoto preferences to automatically imports photos form PS

  • Re Iphoto stream - how to save space on icloud by deleting on iphone but not on mac iphoto?? thanks

    Hi - be great if anyone can help....
    It's unclear to me as to how to save photostream photos from iphone to macbook if I want to delete the same photos from my phone to save space on icloud.
    Thanks in anticipation of any advice

    Hi
    It's a very good idea to use an external hard disk to take load off the Main Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk.
    BUT there are some VERY Important things to know.
    A. NEVER move via DeskTop/Finder or alter any folders named
    • iMovie Events - or -
    • iMovie Projects
    As this will result in disaster (hard to impossibly to mend)
    All moving's of Events and Projects must be done Within the iMovie Application to be done in a Safe Way
    B. The External/Second Hard Disk
    • MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted for VIDEO - UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange works for most things BUT NOT FOR VIDEO - whatever program is used iMovie or FinalCut or iDVD doesn't matter - VERY IMPORTANT ! ! !
    • Should be a FireWire one as USB/USB2 performs badly to me especially when filling up. (Thunderbolt might be even better - have non to test)
    BUT when reg. iPhoto Library.
    • Yes it can be moved
    • Yes iPhoto can be directed to find it
    • BUT - iMovie can not find those out-localized iPhoto libraries (AS FAR AS I Learned up to now 12-April-03 - anyone with more insight may kindly set me into a possibly way to do this)
    So I've outsource my iMovie Event's (most important as they take space) and Projects (not so important as they are very small - no movies in them only text document conducting how the Events are to be viewed) - BUT iPhoto stays - will not touch it.
    Yours Bengt W

  • Can you link 2 photostreams from separate iPhones to the same mac iPhoto via iCloud?

    Myself (iphone 5) and my wife (4S) both have an iphone but share the same Macbook pro.
    I have just set up my photostream to sync to iphoto in our Macbook via the icloud.
    Is there a way of also synching my wife's 4S photostream to the same iphoto.
    I don't want to make extra users or mount the iphoto elsewhere, I'm basically hoping for a quick fix that means we can seamlessly contribute and utilise the same folder with all of our folders!
    Any help much appreciated, thanks!

    only by both using the same Apple ID to log into iCloud or using sahred Photo Streams

  • I am trying to download my photos from my iphone to my mac-iphoto. It keeps trying but about halfway through it says there is an error with a photo therefore it wont download any of my pictures or videos.  It wont tell me which picture is the issue.

    I took a lot of pictures and video on my recent trip to Ireland.  Now I am trying to download the photos and videos from my iphone to my mac - iphoto.  I have tried 3 times and each time (at a different point) I get a message telling me that there was an error with one of my photos and it wont load the pictures.  Help!!

    Try using Image Capture to download to a folder on the Desktop.  If there's a damaged file on the iPhone that's preventing the download you can isolate it with Image Capture and then delete it from the iPhone.

  • TS3195 My mac mini (Snow Leopard, v10.6.8) does not acknowledge my iphone 4, iphone 4s or ipad2 in iPhoto, Image Capture, iSync or Preview but it does in iTunes.  I am at a loss for importing photos, short of emailing them.  Glitch with OS X 10.6.8 ?

    My Mac Mini (v10.6.8) does not acknowledge my iphone as a device in iPhoto, Image Capture, iSync or Preview although, iTunes does.  I am at a loss for importing photos other than emailing them to myself. Same problem with my iphone 4, iphone 4s, ipad2 and New iPad. Is this a problem with OS X 10.6.8 as I read some posts claim? Please help.

    I was able to import photos in iPhoto and Image capture when I was running SL 10.6.8 on my older MacBook.
    Did you try quitting everything, restart the Mac and then try again?
    Are there any updates at all for the Mac? I was helping one user not all that long ago and there were updates for her Mac software that had nothing to do with the OS and when she downloaded the updates - the iPad was then recognized in iTunes.

  • After loading my photos from my iPhone to my mac iPhotos it prompts me to delete photos from my iPhone.  When I agree to this my photos never delete.  my iPhone is out of storage due to I can't delete photos.  What am I doing wrong?

    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 bought a luminex camera but cannot download my pics onto my mac as I don't have windows. Can I download windows on my mac.

    I have bought a luminex camera but cannot download my pics onto my mac as I don't have windows. Can I download windows on my mac.

    (1) You should not need to use Windows on your Mac unless you want to do so.
    I'm unsure what a "luminex camera" is, but you can probably use your Mac's iPhoto app with it.
    Launching iPhoto and search iPhoto > Help for "import" (without the quote marks.)
    If you're still having trouble, this article may give you some ideas:
    iPhoto '11: Import photos or video from a digital camera
    (2) You can only "download Windows"  if you have bought it from a download source.
    Once you have an usable (downloaded or disk-based) Windows installation, Apple's
    Windows on a Mac Support page explains using Windows on your Mac via Boot Camp.
    VMWare, Virtual Box, or Parallels Windows are other alternatives.  This article may be of interest:

  • How to download photos from my iPhone 3GS to my Mac?

    I need to download the photos I took with my iPhone 3GS to my Mac. How do I do this?

    If you just want the photos, and you don't need them in iphoto, you can use image capture. You just go into iphoto, and, under preferences, change the default application that opens when a camera is connected to image capture, and connect you camera, select the images to import, tell where to put them, and click import.

    That's exactly what I tried to do, but the iPhoto librry doesn't show up in the pulldown menu. If I click "Choose Folder", the iPhoto library is greyed out and unable to be selected.
    For some reason, iPhoto is an option in the pulldown library on my older iMac but not on my MacBook Pro. What gives?
