  • Having trouble importing photos from Panasonic Lumix cameras. No error message 1 just has spinning ball, other can import using menu but ends with spinning ball. using 9.1.5 Mac OSX10.6.8. Have to restart to access iphoto

    Hi I am trying to import photos into iPhoto using two Panasonic cameras both Lumix (DMC TZ3 and DMC FZ30). Worked in the past no problem, I upgrade system when prompted and am running Mac OSX 10.6.8 with iPhoto 9.1.5.  When I attach cable from camera to Mac with the DMC TZ3 I get the spinning ball and nothing else and have to force quite and restart to access iphoto again without the spinning ball, with the DMC FZ30, when I plus in the cable I get an icon on the desktop and can go into iphoto and import the photos that way.  When the photos have been imported I get the spinning ball again and have to restart the Mac to access iphoto without the spinning ball.  Photos do import though.
    Can anyone help, a really stupid, non-techie person who has no idea what she is doing, please?
    Thank you

    Try use a different cable.

  • I am having trouble importing files from file sharing in the same household.  I have followed the tutorials but do not have the tab at the bottom of Itunes "Import to library"

    When I go to file sharing on Itunes, I am unable to import files to my itunes.  I can play them, but am unable to move them to my library.  I have been through the tutorial and when I get to "show menu at the bottom of library" there is no menu.  I do not have the tab "items not in my library" or "import"   I have been through the upper tab and see no option in the view menu and have also consolidated the files.  Any suggestions?

    Error code -36 is an i/o error. That usually means that the computer is having a problem reading or writing the file you're working with, which in turn usually means that the drive has a problem. A sudden slowdown of the magnitude you meantion usually means a severely damaged directory or physical damage to the disk. I'd run a disk fixer such as Disk Utility or Disk Warrior on the slow drive. If it reports problems which can't be fixed, which I suspect it will, I'd back everything up. I just had a LaCie 250GB drive die on me with similar problems (i/o errors, very slow access) and returned it under the warranty.

  • I'm having trouble importing video from my panasonic hdc-tm900 into iPhoto.

    it used to work fine (at 1080p/60) and when i plug it in to the computer it shows the older videos i have already downloaded, but not the new videos. they are all 1080/60. I'm running a new macbook pro with mavericks. i believe this is the first batch i tried to download with mavericks... i can only load the videos in one bunch ono the desktop and open them with quicktime, but can't export or import to iPhoto. curious!

    What version of iPhoto do you have?
    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Try to import some videos from the camera and the Desktop to test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

  • Trouble importing mp3s from Time Capsule

    So here's my problem. I was using a Dell desktop till a couple months ago. I had all my MP3s on this Dell, and had been using iTunes to access it. To migrate to a Mac, I copied my music folder to a new Apple Time Capsule.
    next, when i set up my new MacBook Pro, i told iTunes to import the music folder on the TC. It ground away for about an hour, scanning in all the titles. I also clicked the option in itunes to 'organize music', and under the advanced setting told iTunes to copy files to my local drive.
    now the problem: despite all that, my itunes library shows about 95% of songs are on the TC, not on the local HD, where i want them so i can listen to music while not at home.
    have i messed up this xfer process? any advice on the right steps?

    How did you make that happen?

  • Trouble importing contacts from a tab-delimited file into Contacts on 10.9.5

    I am having Trouble importing contacts from a tab-delimited file into Contacts on MacBook Pro, OS 10.9.5, Intel 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo., 400GB drive, 4GB memory DDR3
    So far I have:
    - Followed closely the help screen in Contacts app
    - Modified my source document meticulously - first in MS Word, then copied and tweaked in Apple's "Text Edit" app
    - The problem arises when I go to access the document for import.  Specifically, the target document, and all others in that file, are "greyed out" and thus can't be "opened" to facilitate the import process
    - Tried changing the extension of the document name to ".txt", ".rtf", and ".rtd". No change or improvement.
    - Searched Apple.com/help and found nothing relevant
    Can anyone offer some advice or tell me what I may be overlooking in this process?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,

    Hi Rammohan,
    Thanks for the effort!
    But I don't need to use GUI upload because my functionality does not require to fetch data from presentation server.
    Moreover, the split command advised by you contains separate fields...f1, f2, f3... and I cannot use it because I have 164 fields.  I will have to split into 164 fields and assign the values back to 164 fields in the work area/header line.
    Moreover I have about 10 such work areas.  so the effort would be ten times the above effort! I want to avoid this! Please help!
    I would be very grateful if you could provide an alternative solution.
    Thanks once again,
    Best Regards,

  • 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.

  • I am having trouble deleting photos from iPad that we're imported from PC  how do I do this to free space on ipad

    I am having trouble deleting photos from iPad that we're ported from PC. Already deleted from PC but still showing up on iPad following sync

    Tap and hold your finger on the X
    You should get a message in some cases that it will delete your stored app data - say OK if you want to proceed
    The wiggle mode should stop with a press of the home button - not a hard reset
    Reset your phone and see if the behavior changes - there is no data loss - Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • HT5294 I am having trouble importing converted .MTS files

    I am having trouble importing .MTS files converted from file not camera.
    Data rates are low and not match 3 camera editing seq. (2 camera HD files imported off camera into iMovie)
    I am using Wondershare Ultimate 3.0 and have tried several options in HD & Editing sections
    with custom selections.
    Codec- Apple Interm. for iMovie files

    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 …

    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.

    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.

  • 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.

    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select

    I am having trouble removing songs from my iPhone.  i have unchecked songs in the library on my mac, but they still show up on phone after syncing.  how do I remove them?

    Hi asims01,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The information below may be able to answer your questions about how to delete songs from your iPhone:
    Deleting songs downloaded to your device
    Tap the Music app.
    Tap More > Songs at the bottom.
    Scroll or search for the song you would like to delete from your device.
    Swipe right to left on the song, and then tap Delete.
    Note: You must be in Artists, Songs, or Albums view to delete songs from your device. Deleting from a playlist won't remove a song from your iOS device.
    Also, this information can be found on page 64 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
    If you have iOS 7, this will delete the song from local storage, but the song will still appear with a cloud symbol in the Music app, as you've noticed. To hide the iTunes in the Cloud purchases, navigate to Settings > iTunes & App Store, and disable "Show All: Music”
    There may be a few orphaned songs on your iPhone that were partially downloaded or corrupted in some way. If that is the case, you can erase all of the music from your phone.  Follow the instructions below and select the Music app under Usage:
    iPhone, iPad, and iPod: Understanding capacity
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1867
    I hope this information helps ....
