Importing Photo Trouble

I am having trouble uploading photos to my Ipod. Once connected I select the Ipod options, I sychronize with the Photoshop Album (I have also tried selecting from different folders)once I hit okay, it begins to upload then...the error message: "The Ipod cannot be updated, The disk could not be read from of written to." What am I doing wrong? Can someone please help?

See if anything here helps: "-36 or "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod or "Firmware update failure" error when updating or restoring iPod

Trouble importing photos previously deleted from Elements Organizer

I am having trouble importing photos from iPhoto into Photoshop Elements Organizer. When I try to import, it says "Nothing was imported. The files or folders selected to import did not contain any supported file types or the files are already in this catalog." The photos I want to import, I had previously deleted from the Organizer, so I think they are "already in this catalog" but I don't know how to find them.

How are you attempting to do this? Step by step, what are you doing?

Trouble importing photos to DROBO on new iMac-painfully slow

I have been using LR without trouble for years. After switching from my old MacbookPro to a new iMac, I am unable to import photos. The trouble coincides with the move to the new computer.
LR recognizes the photos when I insert the CF card. I am able to start the import, but the import is ridiculously slow (20 raw images in an hour). I have backed up my catalogue and optimized the catalogue. When this failed to help, I trashed LR (by dragging application to trash) and reinstalled it.
I AM able to import onto my Hard Drive. But not to the DROBO where my LR library is contained.
Also, LR is no longer able to distiguish between new photos and photos already in catalogue. And at times I get a message saying that LR cannot open my catalogue. Rebooting the computer fixes this, but it is a troubling message.
Thank you for your help.

Check the Drobo support pages and third-party sites. The Drobo is infamous for being desperately slow under some circumstances and for some apps. It also appears that the app is having trouble locking the Lr catalogue database on the Drobo device, which is why you are getting errors opening up the app sometimes.
It really sounds like you have some config problems you need to sort out. Start from the basics: how is the Drobo storage physically accessed by the iMac, and what protocol is it using to get the storage to show up in /Volumes/?
Make sure the Drobo firmware is up-to-date, and check the iMac logs (and the Drobo logs, if it has such a thing) to see if there is anything out of the ordinary there. You may also want to verify that the cables and connectors you use to get from the iMac to the Drobo are sound. Swap cables if you have to, just to rule that out. If you are using Firewire or USB, make sure the cables are rated for the highest speed each devices supports, and that you are not going through any dodgy hubs.
Because it sounds like it is sustained bulk transfers that are suffering; typically this indicates that one device or another in the chain is slowing the traffic down in order to satisfy a basic data safety requirement.

Trouble Importing Photos into iMovie

I am trying to import photos into iMovie and am having trouble. They look like they are importing OK, and when the import is through (the red bar has finished loading) the picture disappears and the clip becomes blank. This is happening when I import from the finder, from iPhoto, or from FILE>Import, and with lots of different photo sizes, none seem to work. My iMovie project file is located on an external drive with tons of space. I have plenty of space of the startup disk, so I don't know why this is happening, and it was working fine a few days ago. Any ideas?

I had this problem last year (August-Sept 2007), and I'm having it again now (August 2008). When I import jpeg photos from iPhoto to iMovie, they turn black and are not accessible in iMovie. In addition, this time when I imported several photos, the replay of the iMovie became jerky. When I threw out the photos, the movie became smoother, the way it was originally. There seems to be some sort of bug that has not been fixed in over a year.

Importing photos from Iphone to computer and there is a message it is having trouble with this part way through on a phot and then stops

I am having trouble importing photos onto my Mac book Pro from my Iphone...in the middle of the import I get a message stating that they are having trouble with one of my photos and then stops importing...want to save photos and clear the phone storage

Hello cindysc
Try importing the photos using Image Capture and see if that changes things. If it still gets stuck, try and email the photo to your self and download it that way.

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.

Trouble importing photos from Canon Power Shot SD1300

Until today, my family has had no difficulty importing photos into iPhoto from our Canon Power Shot SD1300 camera. But when I plugged in today to import the most recent few months of shots, the program would not accept the .jpg file format (or so the notice said). Similarly, Image Capture would not import the images.
I'm running iPhoto 8.1.2, Image Capture 6.0.1 on a MacBookPro6,2 with an Intel Core i5/2.4 GHz machine with OS X 10.6.8.
Why is this suddently not working? Did something happen with recent updates of software that screwed everything up? We've tried most of the sensible things from the camera end: deleting old photos so the memory card shouldn't be overloaded, recharging battery....
What's next?
TCC

Unfortunately, the iPhoto error message, which had something to do with "not recognizing the file type" or something (though they were listed as .jpg files) no longer shows up. Now iPhoto thinks there are no photos on the camera, though there are quite a few actually.
Image Capture recognizes that there are image files, but says, "Import Error. An error occurred while importing. 347 items were not imported." And then it begins with a list of the first files on the camera.

Trouble importing photos to iPhoto '11

I import a group of photos - in my albums it shows the album there with 13 photos. I can sweep across the album and see the photos in there. But when I double-click on the album it shows no photos. I sign off, sign back on - the imported album is gone. Is there a new way to import photos successfully with iPhoto '11?

Sounds like a damaged database.
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?

Trouble importing photos into Lightroom 3

I was no longer able to import photos into Light room 3 so I removed everything to "My Pictures" to a folder named Light room Photos and uninstalled and reinstalled Light room, but when I try to import my photos back into Light room from that folder it "no photos found" which was why I tried this to begin with as whenever I tried to import from a memory card it came up with "no photos found. Any ideas?@

I'm having the same problem as you.
Lightroom 5.2 has been running for a year and now it's just stops importing from my CF cards.
Is that the same problem, or a different problem?
What is the error message?
I've got Permissions set to allow me to do anything so, that ain't the issue either.
This is often the first response and when we insist that we see screen captures of the Import dialog box and the permissions on the folder specified under "Destination", it turns out the permissions are not set properly.
So, we need to see screen captures of both your Import dialog box and the permissions on that exact folder specified under Destination

Trouble importing photos to iphoto

When I try to import photos to iphoto, I get this message for each photo, "The volume for DSC.#.JPG can not be found. Insert disk or connect to the server volume and wait for it to appear on the desk top, then try again". It gives me the option to cancel, find photo, or ok; I click cancel and photo is imported. iphoto is recognizing my camera, and it is on the desk top but I can't figure out why this happens. I have reformatted my SD cards but this doesn't help. I've been using iphoto for about 6 months and this is the first time this happens. Im using iphoto 09 and everything is up to date.

This sometimes occurs if you’re importing a file into iPhoto and there’s already a file there with the same name. Digital cameras can produce many, many files with the same name over their lifetime, so it’s not uncommon to have several files called IMG_00543.JPG, for instance. Now you want to import one also called this.
What happens is that iPhoto compares the two files to check for duplicates. However, if iPhoto cannot find the file already in the database for comparison, then you get this message. It suggests that your database is damaged because iPhoto has lost track of this (or these) similarly named files.
A simple test is to rename the file you are importing - just add a character - IMG_00543a.JPG for instance. If this then imports with no issue then you might consider rebuilding your library:
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.

Is anyboby having trouble importing photos in from face book and Adobe Revel

I can not see or import from either of these sites. light room makes a connection but will not import photos
I have turned off firewall and virus blockers. light room authenticates both accounts but will not display any photos. any help would be much app. .

It's not meant to import photos from either of those sites. They're publish services - intended for publishing photos TO those sites.

Trouble importing photos LR4

when try to import a load of photographs i uncheck them all, then try to highlight the ones i want but when i have ticked 5 or 6 the screen just shows the first one in the bunch, whether i have highlighted it or not. the few i have ticked still show up in the develop section but it means i have to import photos in small amounts.
has something got corrupted, how to i go about uninstalling and reinstalling if i need to?

thank for your reply victoria.
what happens is this, if i want to import say 20 photos into the library section, when i try to hightlight photos i want to work on, say 10 through 20, i would tick the little box at the top to highlight them. when i get to number 14/15, all of a sudden the very first photo of the twenty ( not even highlighted at all) fills the screen.
i click back to get rid of it and all the photos i have highlighted are there in the develop section, but it means i have move photos at about 5 at any one time. this is very annoying,before all i did was tick the little box in the top left hand side of the thumbnail as often as necessary and all was well.
i recently updated to window 8.1 i really believe this has something to do with it.
thanks for taking the time to answer.

How can I import photos from photo stream to windows photo gallery? These photos are not on the camera roll on my iPad but are from another iPad on the same iCloud account.

I work at a Learning Center that has 12 iPads on the same iTunes and iCloud account. Each classroom uses an iPad assigned to their room to take photos. Each of these photos then shows up in the Photo Stream in all 11 of the other iPads. I have no trouble importing photos that are in the Camera Roll of any individual iPad, but I have not been able to import photos from the Photo Stream if the picture was not taken on the specific iPad I am using. It is not feasible for me to collect all 12 iPads everyday to import everyones photos, so how can I use one "master" iPad that will let me import photos from the Photo Stream since it has all the photos that everyone has taken?

You downloaded an iCloud backup to your PC? I assume you mean you downloaded your photo stream to your PC. What you may not know is that photo stream only keeps your photos for 30 days. After that, they are deleted from photo stream but not from any device that already has them (such as your phone). When you enabled photo stream on your PC you only had access to photos from the last 30 days since the others are no longer there, even though they remain on your phone.
To transfer these to your computer at this point you have two options:
Save them to the camera roll on your phone (by opening the my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll. (You can only import photos to your computer from the Camera Roll album.) Then import them to your computer as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083; or
Use an app like PhotoSync, which can wirelessly transfer photos from any album between your devices/computers, including the my photo stream album.
In the future, always import your photos from your camera roll to your computer via USB before deleting them. Don't rely on photo stream or your iCloud backup to save your photos.

IPhoto won't allow me to import photos from my iPhone?

I currently am using iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 but I'm having trouble importing photos from my iPhone 6 to my MacBook. I can plug my phone into my computer and it will show up under "devices". However, all of the photos and videos from my iPhone only show up as grey boxes with a white dotted line around them. When I press either "import all" or "import selected", it says that each photo or video is unreadable because it is in an unrecognized format. I tried updating to a newer iPhoto version but I don't have Mac OS X version 10.10 or later on my MacBook. Thanks for the help!

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'

Upgrading iPhone 3GS to iOS4 unable to import photos to iPhoto

After upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS4, I am unable to import photos to iPhoto. Also, iPhone does not turn up in iPhoto. Unable to find other ways to import photos from iPhone. No problems importing before upgrade. Anyone with a god solution?

I too had troubles with iPhoto and the iPhone Photo app. They are solved for now. Problem description and action take are as follows.
Problem 1 - Got a new iPhone 4 and upgrade my wife's iPhone 3GS to iOS 4. For both phones, when I connected them to iTunes to sync and selected on the Photo tab to sync my entire iPhoto library, nothing synced to the iPhones.
Solution 1 - I opened iPhoto to ensure my photo collection was indeed there. I closed iPhoto and tried to sync the phones again. This time, the sync took place, taking a long time since the thumbnail photo collection had to be created.
Problem 2 - I knew the photos were on the phones since the sync was complete. On the new iPhone 4, I could see the photos when I selected events or faces or places. The albums tab was blank. On the 3GS, it still looked like there were no photos.
Solution 2 - I shut down the iPhones holding both home key and the power button. I waited a minutes and restarted. Upon restart, both Photo apps displayed my photo collections properly - at least for now.
