I cannot import into iphoto my pictures due to an error like "it's importing photos" but it's not

thanks a lot for your help

- What version of iPhoto. --> the newest (i bought my macbook air three weeks ago)
- What version of the Operating System. --> OS X mavericks (i bought my macbook air three weeks ago)
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on. --> i import them in the iphoto...like, i connect my iphone5 to my macbook air, the iphoto opens automatically...then i select the pictures and click import...but it doenst create a new event and doesnt import any picture...and if i try again, there is a warning pop up that appears and it tells me that i have to wait because the pictures are importing (but they're not)...i also disconnected the iphone, made a reboot etc. but it appeary again and again..
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages? --> since yesterday...nothing has been changed
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue. --> reboot of iphone5, macbook air, update of the iphone5
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto? --> i use it normally, connect my iphone to my mac and until yesterday i had no problems
i hope those information can help you and me..

  • My iPhoto won't quit/close which will then not allow me to turn my computer off- how to I get iPhoto to close? It keeps saying that it is still importing photos- but it's not! help!

    Hi-
    My iPhoto will not quit/close as it keeps saying that it's "importing" photos however, there isn't anything connected to the laptop that it would be importing photos from. How can I "force" the program to shut down? Due to it not closing, it wont permit me to turn the computer off.
    please help!
    Thank you!

  • I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter.  If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
    How large a date change are you putting in?  iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time.  If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
    If that is not the case:
    Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
    ---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
    Let me know the results.

  • I've just upgraded to Iphoto v9.4.1 and cannot import photos from my hard drive

    I've just upgraded to Iphoto v9.4.1 and cannot import photos from my hard drive. no matter what method I use, either click and drag or through the File menu. All I get is a message 'Preparing to import' - file size is less than 300 kb

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

    I have detele the iPhoto cache from user/library/caches/com.apple.iPhoto but it made no difference.
    Any advice is welcome.

    Yes, I did solved the problem. It was not with iPhoto but with the iTunes. Once I delete my phone profile all worked. I did not write the steps down but if you do it please post it here.

  • Cannot import photos or video into fcp x

    I have the newest version of FCP X and cannot import photos from iphoto or video...anyone, anyone?

    By clicking on the Photo Browser I assume that you mean the highlighted button in the screeen shot below:
    As you can see, on my system a view of the iPhoto collection does appear. If/when you find the photo(s) you want, drag them into the the event.
    So why doesn't this happen for you? Don't know. Where is your iPhoto library? Some location that Final Cut isn't expecting? Maybe searching for other posts re iPhoto in this community?

  • I cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5v or photoshop

    i cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5 or photoshop

    Launch Lightroom and from the menu go to:
    Lightroom >> Preferences >> general (tab)
    Ensure there is a checkmark in the box “show import dialog when a memory card is detected”
    Then quit Lightroom and insert the card again. Does LR launch ready for import?
    If not, check that your card is mounted. You should see an icon on the desktop.
    Launch Lightroom and click the import button (bottom left)
    Expand the tree in the left-hand column of the import dialog e.g. from Mac HD >> Users….down to desktop.
    Highlight your card.
    Choose “Copy” at the top and either a named folder on the right or automatic dated folders.
    Then start the import.

    I cannot import photos from my camera card into light room 5 or photoshop

    There is no "into". LR and PS just reference your photos on the hard drive.
    When you import your photos "into" the LR catalog, LR can copy the images off your memory cards to the hard drive if you have not already copied them, but the photos are referenced by the LR catalog by the path and filename for the files.
    If you are having problems getting the images off the cards, what steps are you using and what error messages are you getting?

  • I cannot import photos from my cell to iPhoto 9.6

    After upgrading to Yosemite on my Macbook, I had to update iPhoto to 9.6. Since doing this, iPhoto will not import photos from my phones. Anyone have similiar problem and solution?

    MBP early 2011/10.10
    iphone 4S 8.1
    iCloud drive
    This has really been annoying me too.  The problem cropped up with the last Mavericks update.  Since then my phone never mounts in iPhoto.  It used to mount just like any camera, when I plugged it into a usb port.  Now, nothing.   Getting photos into iPhoto by sending them to iCloud and then down into iPhoto is very indirect and frankly isn't working worth a darn.  I'm not blaming anything in particular because I do not know for certain what is causing the problem.  I really like things to work though.  And, I really like having all my photos on my computer.

I cannot see larger images as again I get the search bookmarks and history page etc. Happens on all options that should open new page.

  • (Lightroom 5.2 in MacBook Pro) Cannot Import Photos.

    Hi,
    I have just purchased, downloaded and installed adobe lightroom 5.2 online. I was trying to discover it since it's my first time using lightroom. So I tried clicking on the "Import" button and it showed me different folders from my library. However, I cannot find the folders that I 've created in iPhoto. I saw various online tutorials about importing photos but it's only for those photos that are coming directly from either an inserted memory card or direclty from a camera.
    Please help.
    Cheers!

  • Message cannot be transferred to node SMTP due to connection error (final)

    HI Gurus,
    we are gewtting the following error inour test client in SOST transaction. Can someboyd please thriw soem light on how to resolve this?
    Message cannot be transferred to node SMTP due to connection error (final)
    Message no. XS816
    Diagnosis
    Due to a technical fault, the system could not set up a connection to the RFC destination Check port and mail server for SMTP nodes. Therefore, the message could not be transferred to node SMTP.
    System Response
    The system was unable to transfer the message.
    Additional information of the node used (in the system language of the node):
    Procedure
    Check the connection from SAP system to node SMTP. Perhaps the node is not assigned to the correct RFC destination. If so, correct this in Customizing.
    Otherwise use RFC destination management to check the RFC connection to destination Check port and mail server for SMTP nodes.
    If R/3 is in productive operation, it is advisable to reroute provisionally to another node.
    You should therefore notify your system administrator.
    Thanks
    Anusa

    Yes i completely agree, but we wanted to test this process by putting our own email addresses in the vendor master and then also maintinaing the condition records to make sure that the email are coming fine. I guess it was working until some time, but then yesterday i noticed this error message in our test client. Somehow we need tthis to get working so that we can get the signoff from the business and that this can be moved to production
    Thanks
