I just tried to import photos from iphone to MacAir  but only some came across, many others as dark space. The app thinks I have transferred them all but I want to redo the process and it is not obvious how to do that. I deleted the dark images  already,

How may I reimport photos from my iphone 4s to the MacAir iPhoto as only some images came across.. It is not obvious to me, like it is with other programs I have used.

Also, you can have Image Capture automatically open when you connect the phone or any camera. To do that you need to open iPhoto on your Mac (yes, the setting is in iPhoto and that is a bit strange).
Why do I have to buy iPhoto to get to a setting so that I don't have to use iPhoto?!?! Not very Apple-like.
If the device is attached and highlighted in Image Capture, the setting is in the bottom left corner.

    Trying to import photos from iPhone 5, windows explorer present many icons of local disks which cannot be deleted
    for some reason there are many folders in the iPhone for pictures

    I have been having the same issues with my devices (iphone4s & Ipad and Ipad mini) NOT importing photos to my PC via windows 7. Too be honest, i am sick and tired of looking for a fix. I have spent days on this and now realise via forums that this issue is widespread. (deja vu - remember notes vanishing?)
    I have tripled checked everything but the platform just simply does not work.
    So, i will get offered various 'hunches' as to how to fix this...but hold on..after paying over £1,000 for the equipment why should i have to go find a fix...basically ...yet again...Apple products not delivering what they promise and are flawed. Gather im pretty p**sed about this...you betya...will i buy Apple again...?? take a guess.

  • IPhoto freezing when trying to import photos from iPhone

    iPhoto has started freezing when trying to import photos from an iPhone. The device is recognised but just get "loading . . . " message with no photos appearing. Has anyone else seen this?

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - 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.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Trying to import photos from iphone 4s to macbook and message shows saying photo is unrecognisable format

    For some reason, now when i try to import photos to Iphoto from my iphone 4s a message pops up saying the file is an unrecognisable format. Anybody know how to change this??
    Help!

    Is it for one photo or for all photos?
    Try using Image Capture rather than iPhoto, hopefully that fixes things.

  • Lightroom 5.7.1 stops responding when trying to import photos from iPhone.

    As the title says, when trying to import the photos from my phone which I've done with Lightroom for a couple years now, the program stops responding entirely. This happens with both mine and my wife's phones. We did leave hers plugged in over night and it eventually started responding again and I was able to import her photos. But I can account for at least 5 hours during which it was not responding first. I'm not sure what changed over night that finally let it work again.
    Any ideas? Thanks!

    You're sure you want to stop using iphoto? Then I would try it this way instead:
    Export each event in your iphoto library separately, put the photos where you want to keep them and use "from files and folders". If there's an event that the organizer chokes on, then you'll have to go into that one photo by photo to see where the problem lies. (You are aware that using "from iphoto" is duplicating your entire iphoto library, so you don't want to do that AND keep using iphoto, right?)

  • Everytime I open my laptop, Lightroom tries to import photos from my hard drive. Does anyone know how to stop this?Is there a default I need to change?

    Everytime I open my laptop, Lightroom opens and tries to import photos from my external drive. Is there a default I need to change?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Error -36 is, as X423424X says, a generic I/O error. It doesn't say anything about what caused the error, or indeed where it occurred (source or target).
    You have to describe exactly your action when the error occurs. Is the ext'l drive you mentioned formatted as NTFS (Win default file system)? Without additional software, Mac OS X cannot write to NTFS, it can only read from it.

  • HT4061 My iphone screen if frozen and grey after I tried to import photos from my phone to my mac in iPhoto.

    My iphone screen has been frozen for about 30 minutes on a grey sceen with a thin white line throught it. I tried to import photos from my phone to my mac. It was working for a while, then it quit and my computer said thre was a error. I looked at my phone and it was frozen. I can't turn it off and my screen does not dim, its just stuck on the grey. I also can'tfind the serial number either. I have imported photos in the past and it has worked. I just don't know what to do or how to fix it .

    Hi ginger1616,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is unresponsive, try resetting it using this method:
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • We are using iPhoto '09 trying to import photos from  a memory card.  We stopped the import and ejected the card over 20 hours ago, but iPhoto says its still importing.  Any idea how long the import should run if there were 5000 photos on the card?

    Don't know how long it would take to import that many photos but if you stopped import and ejected the card ther is something else wrong here.
    I would Force Quit iPhoto. Then Restart your mac. Then restart iphoto to see if any or all of your photos were imported. If they ae you're good to go. If they were not imported I would try importing fewer photos at a time and see what happens.

    what version of iPhoto? Is OS X 10.8 as you state correct for the OS? Has it ever worked? What has changed since it worked? Will Image Capture  ( in your applications folder) import the photos? How are you importing - USB to the camera? USB card reader? built in card reader?
    Any other clues that would help a total stranger who can not see you or your computer assist you?

  • How do i import photos from iphone to windows pc without the autoplay

    My phone doesnt have space anymore for me to upgrade IOS7 and would really appreacite if someone could help. i have to import pictures to my computer and somehow that autoplay option is not coming on and also the phone is not showling under the removable options.

    Hello Lady MC,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone.  It sounds like you are trying to import photos from your iPhone, but the AutoPlay dialogue box doesn't automatically appear. 
    You may need to enable AutoPlay on your computer:
    Connect your iOS device to the computer. If the AutoPlay window appears, click "Import Pictures and Videos using Windows", then skip to step 4. If the "Import Pictures and Video" dialog appears, skip to step 4.
    Note: If the AutoPlay dialog box does not automatically open, you may need to enable the behavior.
    That excerpt is from the section titled "If you have a Windows Vista or Windows 7 PC" in the following article:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

    If your iPhone is not appearing as a connected device at all, I recommend reviewing the following article:

  • I'm trying to import photos from my iphoto library, but keep getting a message saying I cant import from 7.1.5, that I need to upgrade to 7.1.5 or later.  But I have version 8.1.2.  I don't know what to do. I've been able to import in the past.

    I'm trying to import photos from my iphoto library, but keep getting a message saying I cant import from 7.1.5, that I need to upgrade to 7.1.5 or later.  But I have version 8.1.2.  I don't know what to do. I've been able to import in the past.

    Sounds like an issue with the iPhoto Library
    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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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. .
    Regards
    TD

  • I have a MAC 10 and  am trying to import photos from my Kodak Workforce 6 into Photoshop.  Any ideas on how to go about this?

  • I have a MacBook Pro running 10.7.2.  I am trying to import photos from my older Canon EOS-1D for the first time since my OS upgrade.  iPhoto does not see the camera nor does Image Capture.  IC says there is not a camera connected.  Cable is known good.

    I have a MacBook Pro running 10.7.2.  I am trying to import photos from my older Canon EOS-1D for the first time since my OS upgrade.  iPhoto does not see the camera nor does Image Capture.  IC says there is not a camera connected.  Cable is known good.  Has something changed?  Thanks!

    If neither iPhoto not IC can seethe card it might suggest an issue with the card or the ports on the camera/mac.
    Try reformat the card, change the ports and/or use a USB Card Reader.
