I am having trouble importing jpegs shot on my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi

I have about 1000 jpegs that i need to import into FCP. A few specs to start off with. I am working on FCP 7.0 and a brand new MacBook Pro. I have had this camera for about 4 years and have not had a problem importing the jpegs into my old laptop and old FCP program.
When i try to import the jpegs, the 2 portrait jpegs will import fine, but the 350 landscape jpegs will not. I keep getting the "file unknown" error. The dimensions are exactly the same, just reversed. it is RGB. i am able to open the file in preview and resave and then it will import fine. But, i have 1000 photos and don't want to have to do that for all of them. Plus, i will be taking several thousands more and won't have time to do that to each and every photo.
How to i solve this problem so I can simply import the landscape jpegs as i have always done?
Thanks in advance for all of the help.

Will I have to do that for every picture? I am able to open them in Preview and resave them and they work fine. Is there a camera setting that I need to use to dictate how the pix are imported?
Thanks for your help!

Missing photos after import - Canon EOS Digital Rebel

Hi,
After two calls to Apple Support I have solved this issue for this digital roll of 12 raw format images. Here are details for whoever might be interested.
For some reason, iPhoto 6.0.6 was unable to import all of the images from a Canon EOS Digital Rebel camera. 7 out of 12 downloaded fine, however iPhoto seemed to stall at 5 remaining.
Further efforts to rebuild photo library did not help, and the images were never transferred from the camera to the iPhoto 6.0.6 on MacBook Pro Intel (not in original folder).
Then I tried to import the images to the iPhoto 6.0.6 on MacBook Pro Intel via a different user. Then I deleted the first 7 images from the memory card, and tried to import with iPhoto and with ImageCapture. None of these worked.
Then a new memory card with 4 test images (2 large, 2 raw) did import to iPhoto ok.
Then I used Canon File Viewer Utility to drag the 5 images from the first memory card to the desktop. And then I reformatted that memory card.
Before deleting or reformatting the memory card I was also able to import the 12 images to a 12in PowerBookG4 with iPhoto5 version 5.0.4 ok.
From now on however I will be counting the images from card to iPhoto.

Brand new Imac user having trouble importing photos (jpgs)

I am a brand new iMac user and am having trouble importing some of my photos into my new computer.
Here is my dilemma:
* All of my pics are jpgs that were shot using a sony DSC-W50 digital camera.
* All were backed up on my exteral harddrive from my old Sony PC.
* I loaded all of them onto my new iMac into the "Photos" area
* When I try to import them to the iPhoto library, I get a message that either says "already in the iPhoto library" or 'unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data"
* I can open all of the photos that I get this error msg on in other photo programs so I know the files are photos and are good.
HELP!

iPhoto is not an image viewer, it's a Database with built-in image viewer, lightweight editing and version control, and like any database, data needs to be imported. However, iPhoto will not import from the iPhoto Library Folder.
So, move the photos to the Desktop and then import them from there.
Here's what happens next:
iPhoto will make a copy of them in the iPhoto Library Folder. There they will be put into the Originals Folder. Here's how the iPhoto Library Folder is organised:
In this folder there are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
(ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
This allows the Photos -> Revert to Original command - very useful if you don't like the changes you've made.
(iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss.
If you need any more asistance post more.

Having trouble importing select pictures from a cd to my iphoto library

I am having trouble importing (and viewing) my vacation photos from a cd to my iphoto library. Some of the photos I can view in finder, but when i click on the rest, I get a message that says "Item xxxx.jpg is used by mac os x and cannot be opened". When I tried to import the photos to my library... the ones I could view imported no problem, the ones I couldn't view will not import and I get a message saying "unreadable files: the following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data)". I am just sick that I cannot find these photos!!! =( especially since I had them on iphoto before I cleaned out my computer (so I've had them in my library before). Any ideas? I am in desperate need of help! =(
P.S. When I try to move the pictures to my desktop, I get a notice that says, "you may need to enter the name and pasword for the administrator on this computer to change the item named xxxx.jpg"... when I click continue, another message pops up and says, "the item xxx.jpg contains one or more busy items that cannot be changed"

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What do you have set in the System/CDs and DVDs preferences to do when a disk is inserted? If the option is not set to the Finder do so and see if that will make any difference.
Otherwise boot into Safe Mode and see if you can copy the files from the CD to a folder on the Desktop. Boot back into your normal account and see if you can import. Or import while still in the Safe Mode.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Why am I having trouble importing vCards? I follow the Help Center instructions by dragging and dropping, but some don't sync into the cloud. And why can't I drag multiple vCards? I have over 4,000. Please tell me I don't have to do one at a time?

Apple Mail isn't going to change the format of any of your attachments. it isn't going to corrupt them either.
Exchange is a transport protocol and server. The issue you describe is not related to Exchange.
There are many different versions of Microsoft Outlook in use and they all have e-mail bugs. Different versions have different bugs. Some Apple Mail hack to get around a bug in Outlook 2003 may cause the same message to be problematic in Outlook 2000. Fix them both and another issue will cause trouble in Outlook 2007. You can't fix this. Apple can't fix this. Microsoft can and has but that is irrelevant if your recipients are using older versions.
One specific problem is that Apple Mail always sends image attachments inline, as images, not as iconized files. You can change this with Attachment Tamer. Just be aware that use of this software will break other things such as Stationery. E-mail is just a disaster. To date, no one outside of Apple has ever implemented the e-mail standards from 1993. Apple has continually changed its e-mail software to be more compatible with the de-facto standards that Netscape and Microsoft have unilaterally defined and people documented as "standards" after the fact. The e-mail messages that Apple Mail sends are 100% correct and do not violate any of the original standards from 1993 or the Microsoft/Netscape modifications. The problem is entirely bugs and limitations in various versions of Outlook.

you do have access to the original mts?
then use the free re-wrapper reMux
takes just a few seconds.
on import to FCPX don't forget to optimize for a better editing experience …
most of those free/cheap 'converters' from AppStore abuse the open-source ffmpg-engine (without respecting the GPL) with wrong settings …

I am having trouble importing photos, gets stuck on the same photo each time?!?

I am having trouble importing almost 3000 pics from my phone to my computer. Start up disk should be fine, cleaned it up before I began. Import gets stuck on the same photo each time I try the import. I have had to force quit a few times, and it can't seem to get past that same picture near the end. Please help?!? It never gives me an error, it just keeps spinning and nothing is importing.

Having trouble important my Google contacts via Microsoft Exchange. The Exchange pop up says that I have entered the wrong password.

Having trouble important my Google contacts via Microsoft Exchange. An Exchange pop up says that I have entered the wrong password. Help?

I found a fix!! Refer to this article regarding using Microsoft Exchange for Google accounts: http://www.zdnet.com/with-new-gmail-and-google-maps-ios-apps-the-iphone-5-is-cle arly-the-best-smartphone-available-7000008756/
In a nutshell, the Google/Microsoft Exchange combo will no longer work on apple devices. You will need to delete your Exchange account altogether. I know, scary! After you delete it, add your Gmail account like you would add any other regular email account on your device [Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Gmail > add your info]. That takes care of your email and calendar.
Now to get your google contacts back! Refer to these instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4872?viewlocale=en_US
I promise, these steps worked for me (even though I was wincing while I deleted my Exchange account). Now I have my Gmail, Google contacts, and Google calendars (even the shared calendars!) on both my iPhone and iPad :D

Are you saying that the tick-box shown in my screenshot, isn't there? (Yes, this is iTunes 11 - I've turned on the sidebar and the Menu bar. So you can see, this is a CD in my drive that we're looking at.)
If it isn't, go to Edit/Preferences/General and turn on the tick-box box
You can show the Menu Bar (with Edit on it) by using CTRL + B

I have saved my file three times with the right sequence, but when it converts to captivate ischanges the sequence of the slides. Not all slides have animation.

Hi there,
Can you please tell are you importing the .ppt or .pptx?
Captivate 6 is not tested with PowerPoint 2013, please check the help file link: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/microsoft-powerpoint.html
If the sequencing of slides is not O.K., then are you able to manually change the sequence in captivate? (as a workaround).
Thanks.

I have an older Sony digital camcorder, and I am having trouble importing the movie files. Sometimes I get the audio in iTunes without the picture. I have a Pinnacle Dazzle interface. What am I doing wrong. Is there a way to skip the dazzle device?

I have an older Sony digital camcorder, and I am having trouble importing the movie files. Sometimes I get the audio in iTunes without the picture. I have a Pinnacle Dazzle interface. What am I doing wrong. Is there a way to skip the dazzle device?

Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
Keep copies of the originals.
Another option might be to try to install Perian. Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.
