Import jpeg formatted photos from files

Hi there,
I am a new MacBook Pro owner with Leopard 10.5.1 and iLife 08. Absolutely impressed by the system, but a bit disappointed that importing JPEG formatted photos from files sometimes results in garbled photos in iPhoto and Aperture, even though the originals are simply fine. Tried to used other software like GIMP, but the issue remains.
Is this a known Mac OS X problem? If so, does anyone have a solution for it?
I would be eternally grateful for any help I can get on the isue.
Lucien

Sorry, forgot to mention that I'm asking for my New iPad

    in addendum to Tom's reply …
    to convert wmv and wma into Mac-friendly formats, you need the PlayerPro from
    http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac/
    for 29$
    The other versions are only needed, if you want to convert TO wmv.
    There're are orther converters avail, some for free, but wmv is a Microsoft-owned format, which costs licences.

  • Unable to import or copy photos from a time machine back up saved from snow leopard into iPhoto now running on lion

    unable to import or copy photos from a time machine back up saved from snow leopard into iPhoto now running on lion

    The correct method of restoring photos from Time Machine is to restore the entire library.
    The way that TM backs up files makes nearly impossible to go into the backup via the Finder and recover individual files. So you will have to restore a library that contains the photos you need being sure to select the option to keep both versions.
    Then open the restored library and export those photos you need.  Open your original library and import those photos.  After that you can delete the recently restored library.

  • My iPhone was stolen last night and I'm trying to recover all my photos from that phone and get them on my mac laptop. The iCloud photo stream only imported 1,000 photos from my stolen phone. How can I retrieve all of my other photos?

    You have to reset the device to Factory Settings in order to restore it from an iCloud backup. You probably want to back it up as is before you do this.
    To do the reset after you have backed up the current device, go to Settings>Reset>Reset all Content & Settings. This will erase the device. If you are signed onto iCloud with Find My iPhone turned on, go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom to sign out of iCloud before you do the reset.
    Once you have reset your device, you will set it up like a new phone. When it asks if you want to restore it from an iCloud backup, select the backup you want to restore it from.

  • Can't load thumbnail photo from file 'BBThumbs.dat'

    Hi everybody,
    I'm developing an application on BB to take and view photo. My problem is can't load the thumbnail photos from file 'BBThumbs.dat'. I'm using code as below:
    public byte[] getThumb(String fileName) {
    String DB = fileName.substring(0, fileName.lastIndexOf('/'))
    + "/BBThumbs.dat";
    fileName = fileName.substring(fileName.lastIndexOf('/') + 1, fileName
    .length());
    if (thumbsMap == null) {
    thumbsMap = new Hashtable();
    byte b[] = null;
    FileConnection fc = null;
    InputStream in = null;
    try {
    fc = (FileConnection) Connector.open(DB, Connector.READ);
    if (!fc.exists()) {
    return null;
    byte[] temp=new byte[(int)fc.fileSize()];
    in = fc.openInputStream();
    DataInputStream is=new DataInputStream(in);
    // b = getThumbNail(first, thumbsMap, fileName, in);
    is.readFully(temp);
    b=readThumbs(temp, fileName);
    } catch (Exception e) {
    } finally {
    if (fc != null) {
    try {
    fc.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    if (in != null) {
    try {
    in.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    return b;
    please give my any idea or suggestions. Thanks 

    Try:
    !Section=Dimensions
    'Name;DimensionClass;DimensionAlias;CustomDimensionID
    SKU;Generic;;
    !Members=SKU
    'Name;DataType
    Brand1;Unspecified
    Brand2;Unspecified
    !Hierarchies=SKU
    'Parent;Child;DataStorage
    #root;Brand1;StoreData
    #root;Brand2;StoreData
    Tho I would add MemberValidForPlan#;Plan#Aggregation, where # is a number of your application which this member is valid for or even has a specific aggregation, as well
    example:
    !Hierarchies=SKU
    'Parent;Child;DataStorage;MemberValidForPlan1;MemberValidForPlan2;MemberValidForPlan3;Plan1Aggregation;Plan2Aggregation;Plan3Aggregation;UDA
    #root;Brand1;StoreData;Y;Y;Y;+;+;+;
    #root;Brand2;StoreData;Y;Y;Y;+;+;+;
    Even more as an idea use pipes, maybe.
    But you will need to say something about Aliases as well if this is a planning application.

  • TS3989 Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    If older photos are missing it may be because photo stream photos are only held in iCloud for 30 days.  After that they are removed from iCloud but will remain (up to 1000 photos) on your device until deleted.  Also, only photos taken after enabling photo stream are added to your photo stream, and only when the camera is closed, your device is connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining.
    To transfer the missing photos you can either create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself to it (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), import the photos to your computer and sync them to your iPad, or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your iPad over wifi.

  • Import contact with photo from google

    How Do I import contact with photos from google to iCloud?
    I uses iPhone6 , 6+ , iPad Air all iOS8.1 and Mac Air Yosemite
    I uses google contact with photo all but I need to export all contacts to iCloud but after I imported the photo not have any more.  How should I do to import all contact with photo from google?

    The thumbnailPhoto attribute is for an octet string, so I can see why that would not work as it should be essentially a byte array (or a binary blob holding the JPG/GIF), and that is what is expected when importing that attribute.

  • When I import Nikon NEF photos from my D3S, it automatically converts them to jpeg. How can I fix this?

    When I import RAW photos from my D3S, iPhoto automatically converts them to jpeg.  I want to edit my images in a RAW format.  I used to be able to save my images as a NEF in iPhoto and edit them in RAW on Photoshop.   Can this be fixed, or do I have to find a new software to manage my RAW photos?

    RAW files are just sensor dumps of the raw data and can't be viewed unless a jpeg version is created. The jpeg version of the photo is created by iPhoto for display purposes.
    Make sure Photoshop is set as the external editor in iPhoto's Advanced preference pane and that RAW files are edited when using the external editor.
    You do know that when editing a RAW photos with Photoshop from within iPhoto the edited version must be saved to the Desktop and imported into iPhoto as a new file.  

  • Does not import all JPG photos from local folders

    Hi,
    Using Lightroom 5.3 under Windows 7.
    Photos are located on local disk.
    I received a selection of photos from our research project which I want to import.
    Most of the photos have been imported correctly.
    However, import of some 500 photos fails.
    "synchronize folder" detects the new photos (501)
    "synchronize" command reports that "no photos or videos were found to import"
    Windows security settings on the files are all the same (inherit from parent folder).
    Disk has enough empty space left (56 GB)
    The photos are in Jpeg format, typically around 500 to 2000 kB each.
    Produced from Photoshop CS5, up to 3267x2244 pixels at 300 dpi.
    Photos open correct in other viewers.
    Are the any limitations to
    - folder and file name length?
    - spaces in file names?
    Thanks in advance,
    Roger.

    JPGs will not import for one of the following reasons
    you have shot JPG+RAW on your camera and the Lightroom option is set only to recognize the RAWs but not the JPGs from the pair
    the JPGs have previously been imported into Lightroom, and so Synchronize or Import will not import them a second time (nor is there a good reason to import them a second time).

  • How to Delete imported JPEGS after matching RAW files are imported as masters

    Using a 5D Mark III and shoot JPEG (SD) and RAW (CF).
    Aperture 3.5.1, using a managed library
    Perviously, using a 7D so new to shooting JPEG and RAWs from an aperture Aperture workflow standpoint.
    I know that i can import the JPEGs > delete images that do not make the cut > then import the matching RAW files in the import dialogue that correspond to the JPEGs in the Aperture Library.
    I use the RAW files as my Camera Master images and once the RAW files are imported, the smaller resolution JPEGs are no longer needed or viewed in my normal edit workflow.  I only need the JPEGs to quickly go through the images to find out which RAW files i need to import at a later time to increase the speed of import > edit > deliver.
    My Assumptions:
    1.  Logic would lead me to believe that after import the user should see a stack like image representation with whatever file type is considered Master to be on top and the viewable secondary file type on the bottom.  clicking on the image stack should allow you to see both file types as you would normally see with image stacks with the same files types.  This is not the case...  What am i missing here?
    2.  Logic again would lead me to believe that when i have the ability to delete one of the 2 image types as i do not need both in the end.  After the import process is complete and RAWs are backed up, I want to delete the JPEG files as they are just taking up more space on my DAS drive array...  There is no need to keep a duplicate of every file in both JPEG and RAW format.  This is not the case as when i delete the JPEG or RAW, both files formats are deleted simultaneously.  What am i missing here?
    Problems: (correspond to Assumptions above)
    1.  I do not seem to have access to both images (JPEG & RAW) in a stack where i can expand and close the stack to see both?  It seems like i only have access to the image type i have selected as Master?  This seems counter intuitive to what the workflow should be as why would aperture 'lock the secondary file types away' so you can't easily view both file types as the same time for comparison?
    2a.  Reality seems to be that i do not have access to the JPEG and RAW image files.  I can only see one at a time by selecting the images and choosing 'make JPEG master’ and then respectively... 'make RAW master', but you can't see both at the same time for file comparison.
    2b.  Also, I can't find a way to delete the JPEG images after the RAW files have been imported.  I would presume most professional photographers shoot RAW and do not shoot JPEG as their camera master or editing master images.  I do not understand why aperture has captured both as a pair in the library that does not allow me to delete the JPEG (in this case) as i have selected the RAW as my master.
    If someone can please help...  The function seems like either i am missing something obvious or that the implemented function of using RAW + JPEGs files for import is broken from a real world workflow standpoint.

    leonie...
    thank you for clearing that up for me.
    I think that at this point it is silly to use the JPEG+RAW import functionality as it seems that it takes longer to do the above steps than to just import only the RAW files and press on from there.
    I seems what i have done in the past of only importing the RAW files and then using the quick preview functionality to reduce image load times is the best thing in can come up with without keeping 'duplicates' in the database.
    That really baffels me that there is no built in functionality to remove the JPEG from a RAW+JPEG pair and i wonder how the real world photographers who help Apple test and implement software to solve real world workflow problems thought the JPEG+RAW import was going to be used.
    I do understand that i can use a smaller JPEG file size to reduce the bloat of the database, but used over hundreds of thousands of images is certainly going to make a dent in my total aperture database size and therefore storage needs down the road.
    If you have any other workflow thoughts, or know of a 3rd party plugin/ etc... to fix this obvious shortcoming then i am all ears..
    thank you again Leonie and have a great week

  • Aperture 2.1.2: Can't import the loaded photos from card reader...

    All of a sudden when loading photos from a card reader into a folder in Aperture 2.1, I fail to "OPEN" neither a NUMBER of them, nor ALL of them...Any suggestions please....Mamster37+

    Hi Tony, thanks again for your readiness to help. Have tried out the suggestion in the second paragraph of your thread, same result as you. That means when first taking the photos from the card reader to the desktop and then IMPORTING them from there into Aperture, there is NO problem. But when from inside Aperture, using Aperture's load/import feature from the card reader, it will NOT work! However, I have found out that the problem seems to be related to RAW-files only (in my case Nikons "NEF-files"), jPEGS open/import fine that way. My possible conclusion: in the light of the rather many recent adjustments/upgrades of various RAW-converters - lately also within Photoshop CS4 - I put myself the question as to whether the latter "Camera Raw-converter" might have overruled the converter of Apples Operating system, or that of Aperture. There seem to be a "collision" somewhere...What do you or other readers of this thread mean about my findings? Oeksen37+

  • How do I import all my photos from my iPhone into iPhoto?

    Following the directions for importing, iPhoto only shows 131 photos for importing which seems to be a random selection from my 21 different files containing almost 1100 photos.  I want to import all my photos and would prefer they import in the labeled files that I have on my iPhone.  Why is this so difficult?
    Thanks for any help provided!!

    see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Note that
    You can import only photo and video content taken with the built-in camera or captured on the device.
    In other words the camera roll photos
    If you have PhotoStream you can add the other photos to PS and import to your Mac from PS
