I inserted a disk from my camera into my Mac book pro and No "import photos"message appeared. There was no camera icon either. I have eited and turned the computer off to remove the disk and then tried again to no avil. I have not been able to eject the disk at all as is suggested. i have to turn the machine off to eject. Help!
What should I do to be able to import photos? Have I done something to make the camera icon disapper? It worked fine yesterday. Cannot stop airstream.

Just open iPhoto (double click oon iPhoto in your applications) and you should be set. It should show you all available devices that it can import photos from.

Inserted a new hard drive into my Mac Boo Pro 2008 15 inch and don't have the original disks. Wondering if there was a way to purchase them.

Inserted a new hard drive into my Mac Boo Pro 2008 15 inch and don't have the original disks. Wondering if there was a way to purchase them from Apple or if I buy them off ebay will they work? Also its A Macbook Pro 2008 15 inch glossy with 2GB of Ram the serial number is worn off what kind OS do I need?

Wondering if there was a way to purchase them from Apple
Yes. Contact Apple Support using one of the options in the Contact Us below. You will need your MBP's serial number and payment method for a nominal fee. If the exterior serial number is illegible look elsewhere for it: MacBook Pro: How to find the serial number
or if I buy them off ebay will they work?
Probably not. Grey discs are system-specific and will work only for the exact model MBP with which they shipped. It's likely that Apple will charge you less money, and it will be guaranteed to work.

I purchased Microsoft Office for Mac through the Apple website.. I have downloaded all from the disk into my Mac, no problem with all the other Word etc, but Outlook is asking for the key number: I have put it in but its obviously not the right one...????

In the box with the disk came the product key, have put it in and it doesnt work. Please help..x

unfortunately - you can not. you can't even buy outlook by itself at microsoft's own website.
does it have to be outlook? maybe you can get away with using something else that's outlook compatible.
how about trying Thunderbird for Mac OS?
or maybe you can call apple and let them know you purchase the wrong version - they might give you a break and just pay the difference for the home and business version.
good luck

Lost all photos on my iPhoto and get the ERROR WRITING TO DISK when trying to reload from Time Machine. iPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem writing to the volume containing your iPHOTO LIBRARY . Looking for solution.

Can you access the images with Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) ?

Surely you meant "just import the photo"? The Spell checker is dangerously creative !

Try restoring from the backup created at the beginning of the sync process:
Without connecting your phone, open iTunes, go to Preferences, on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically"
Connect your phone, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears on the left sidebar in iTunes
Select Restore from backup, choosing your most recent backup to restore from
Disconnect your phone and confirm that your photos are back
Go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.

I plugged my iPod touch (4th generation) into my computer and when iTunes popped up, there was a notice that read "The iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What does this mean and what do I do?

My ipad wont wake up? When I plug into my mac it shows 100% battery and all my app's? What is going on.

My ipad all of a sudden won't wake up? I plugged it into my mac desktop and it shows it as if it is awake, all my programs are intact, it updated and sinc'd, but no response when not plugged in. How do I wake it up? Do I need to reset it or something or is there a light in it that can be replaced? No idea what is going on. No damage or drop has occurred.

Try the additional infomation section to hard reset the device and see if this resolves it.

Just bought my first Mac. I have 1000s of photos on my PC, well organized into folders independent of any organizing software. I want to do the same on the Mac (i.e., ignore iPhoto) and use basic photo editor. Any suggestions?

Just bought my first Mac. Have 1000s of photos well organized in files I created in the Pictures folder on my Windows PC. I plan to copy everything to the Mac and maintain my "independent" collection rather than dump everything into the iPhoto library. Any suggestions for a basic photo editor similar to MS Photo Gallery that I can use on the Mac?

Finally, yesterday I bought a WD My Book for Mac 3TB external HD.
First thing to do is repartition the drive into 1 new partition and reformat as OS X Extended (journaled). Some WD drives come with software that is not compatible with 10.9 and should not be used. Then follow r4kaufmann87's suggestions.

Went to use Facetime and my MB Pro said there was no camera available.

Hi, I tried to use Face Time and my MBPro said there was no camera available. Same thing happened when I tried to use Photo Booth. Any ideas?
Thanks.

FaceTime and Photo Booth both require the built in iSight camera.

You import then to your computer, then you sync them from computer to iPhone using iTunes. Or, you make a backup of the iPhone 5, then restore that backup to the iPhone 6.

I have a new Nikon S6300 camera and can import photos from the camera to iPhoto without loading camera software program. However, I can't get the photos to go into an event or into the photos part of iPhoto like they have done with my Canon camera.

Is there are problem between Nikon and iPhoto program as I can get photos to go beyond the "last import" stage.

If you have imported the photos then they are in an Event or Photos because every photo is in these places.
Select a pic in Last Import and Right-Click on it. Choose 'Show Event' from the menu. This will bring you to the Event containing the photo.
If the photo is in Last Import, then the photo is in the Library somewhere, just not where you expect it to be. Usual causes: the date on your camera is wrong, and so the date on the photo is wrong, or the sorting of the Events has changed (View Menu -> Sort Events)

Welcome to the Apple Community Diane.
I find that shared video can be troublesome, a few haven't appeared to work as you describe but have done when I've looked at a later date. Hopefully they will work if you give them a bit longer. perhaps it would be a good idea if you make sure they are working before deleting them from the camera roll.
