Incremental uploads from camera, possible?

This weekend we took a trip and for the first time used our iPod for the one big reason I finally purchased it for, photo storage. My one gripe was that we often took pictures and uploaded to the iPod to better view the images. Then after inspection, more pictures were taken. A subsequent upload took the new pictures and already imported pictures and put them in a new roll. Thus, when I imported from the iPod to iPhoto, several of my photos were duplicated and I needed to delete the duplicates manually in iPhoto. Is there any way with the iPod to have it do incremental uploads of the photos? Or is it all or nothing?

iPod camera adapter is useless for my uploads as it is. So, the question no longer matters.

How can you select which pictures to upload from camera? plus facebook ?

Is there any way to select which pictures from your digital camera you would like to upload on to iphoto? Or is the only way to upload all of the pictures on your camera? I have 214 pictures on my camera and 210 of them are already in iphoto...i only want to upload the new 4!
Another question..
I am trying to upload my pictures on to Facebook, and they are significantly smaller than the pictures I uploaded via my PC. How can I get them to upload at normal size?
THANKS!

Re: the FaceBook problem
This sounds like you're uploading the Thumbnails that iPhoto uses to display the pics in the iPhoto Window not the pics themselves. Have you been uploading from the Data folder in the iPhoto Library Folder?
There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size.
3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Photo size when uploaded from camera

I have been trying to order prints off of snapfish, and keep getting the resolution warning on every single picture. I have a Canon Powershot camera and have adjusted it so that it is on the highest resolution, so I think the problem comes from uploading to iPhoto. According to snapfish, 4x6 photos need to be 540x360 pixels and all of my pictures seem to be 270x360 pixels. Can I fix this?

1. Where are you getting these measurements from? These 270 x 360 sound like the thumnails that iPhoto creates for display in the iPhoto Window.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 Only*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and 10.5* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Not all images uploading from camera..

When I upload images from my camera it will load some of them and then it acts like upload is complete. I have to hit upload several times to get a session uploaded that was shot all at the same time, anyone know what may cause this ? I didnt realize it did this and it just cost me a session that I have to reshoot now bc I thought all the images were uploaded but they werent.

Hi Michael sorry for your troubles - a really irritating issue to have!
This is usually a hardware issue.
You don't mention how you are downloading images.
In general most folks would strongly recommend not downloading straight from the camera because of the number of issues that occur.
If you are using a card-reader then it is likely that it is still a hardware issue.
It may be the card reader, the USB cable, or the USB controller (rarer but still possible).
If there is more to this let us know!

Raw upload from camera yields magenta screen

I just tried to upload some raw images from my new Nikon D300's memory card to Aperture. The thumbnails are not there and when I clicked on them they yield a magenta screen that says "Unsupported Image Format". I am able to retrieve the images by Clicking "New Version from Master JPEG" in the Image menu, but cannot get the full raw version. This program did not have trouble with my Nikon 200's raw files and this program has handled my D300's JPEG and TIFF files okay. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Bob

Hi,
Have a look at the thread below (see link).
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1756355
I Use a Nikon D2x and only take raw images (.NEF file)
It appears with the Apple digital camera RAW support 2.2 update install older RAW .NEF images/file become useless.
When I went back to Apple digital camera RAW support 2.1 update, all the images/files become fully functioning again.
this is the way I did it:
By deleting the awCamera.bundle file from, System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle
and reinstall the RAW support 2.1 update. (see link to pple digital camera RAW support 2.1 update)
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawcompatibilityupdate21.htm l
it worked for me, but this is just a work around and a bug fix is require. As I can not have the functionality of the newly supported camera’s like the Nikon D700.

Photos erased while uploading from camera

I have a Canon PowerShot SD630 camera. After taking pictures from this weekend I decided to upload them onto my computer using a SanDisk ImageMate 5 in 1 memory card reader. I clicked on the option to not have the duplicates of the older pictures uploaded onto the camera. I also made sure that the option for Iphoto to erase the pictures from the camera after uploading was unchecked. I assume Iphoto froze as it was uploading the pictures or something along those lines because the new pictures never uploaded. Now I don't have these pictures on my computer and they seem to have been erased from the memory card because they no longer show up on my camera as well. Please help!
PowerPC G4 Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Hi, Diana, and welcome to Apple Discussions. Your pictures are almost certainly still on the card, even if your camera can't see them. Download the trial/demo version of PhotoRescue or MediaRecover and see whether it indicates that your photos are recoverable. (The demo version of each program will show you what the full version would be able to recover if you purchased it, and both programs are inexpensive.) If you like what you see, buy and use the full version to recover the images (via your card reader) to a folder on the desktop of your Mac, from which you can then import them into iPhoto. If you are successful, be sure to reformat the memory card in your camera (not in the card reader) before using it again.

Uploading from camera

Next trouble.
When I want to import a fresh movie from my Canon camera I am not able to actually connect to the Canon-camera, the icon stays grey, and this terrible FaceTime camera keeps showing my own annoyance in the most awful light - isn’t there a way to get rid of this camera gun pointing at me for good?! A technical way I mean, not by stabbing his eye.
And even more important: how can I upload a movie from my camera, when I should be able to make a choice according to the manual, but apparently I can’t?!
(Sorry, I hate to be annoyed, but why frustrating users by updates they didn’t ask for, just as they got used to an old version?!!! - or shouldn’t I have updated to Mavericks at all, and what then?, waiting to be disconnected from the great world adventure because not being able to continue the update of life?!)

LB,
When choosing Import don't you see this option at the top left of your import window, where you can choose which camera tot choose ?
I am importing right now. By the way I am using iMovie10 in Mavericks.

Pictures not always uploaded from Camera Roll to Photo Stream

Hi all,
I am experiencing a "not so constant" behavior of Photo Stream.
I noticed that sometimes not all the photos taken with the IPhone are uploaded to Photo Stream. Given that this upload may be poosible only if the iPhone is connected to a Wi-Fi network, is there a way to force the synch between Camera Roll and Photo Stream?
Thanks.

Well, last night I tried to:
disable Photo Stream in iCloud settings on the iPhone
"delete" the whole iCoud account on the iPhone and then log in again
reset Photo Stream in the advanced options of my account on icloud.com
This caused all the pictures of the iPhone Photo Stream gallery and on iCloud.com to be deleted, so I restarted from a clean condition. Then I took three photos, but only the second and the third were uploaded to Photo Stream on iCloud, to the Photo Stream gallery of the iPhone and subsequently downloaded to the Photo Stream folder of my PC.
Still puzzled...

Ipod lost my photos after they were uploaded from camera connector

Hi, i hope someone out there can help. I have used the camera connector with my camera (Olympus mju 700) and ipod (60 Gb Video) many times without any problems but the ipod has just lost the last roll i uploaded onto it. After the upload i went through the menus as usual to delete the card in my camera and then unplugged the camera. only to discover the photos were not on my ipod, in fact there was no photo import menu! This problem was aggrevated by the fact that i no longer have the photos on the camera card!!
I am hoping the photos are on the ipod somewhere and perhaps have lost their file names or whatever it is that tells the ipod that it has photos. Does anyone know of any nifty bits of software i could use to scour the ipod for these photos? Or anyone have any other ideas???
Thanks, much appreciated,
Ross.

I have a similar problem- but I see yours was never answered and you've probably moved on. My photo's where downloading fine like yours when suddenly it dropped a roll. Actually i had downloaded the iPod onto the computer - I put the roll in iPhoto. Which, and why this is really beyond my "imagination" it doesn't import movies. I forgot I had a couple clips on it and went to download them a couple days later. I can only do it with Kodaks software. But the whole roll was missing. And I know I didn't delete it. My guess is this is bug in a software update. But so few people actually use this feature it is undetected. Shoot. Any luck if you are still here????

Can't upload photos from camera

Have 12 pix to upload from camera (Canon Eos 50 D) to my IMac. Been doing this for over 5 years with no problem till now. Battery is good, even tried the plug in battery just in case. Cable plugs into camera, then to my keyboard, turn camera on but nothing happens. Even turned off my back up, just in case. Camera gives no indication that battery is no good, since all systems work: menu, slideshow, etc.
Thanks.

Hello mingdurga,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are unable to import photos from your Canon camera to your Mac because the Mac doesn’t recognize that the camera is connected. There are two different articles that I would suggest reading over in this situation. The first article has information, that you may already be familiar with, explains importing photos from a camera to your Mac.

The next article is one that I would suggest reading over for troubleshooting. Please review the Top troubleshooting tips section of this article for assistance.

How do i get Aperure to reimport photos from cameras

I uploaded some photos from my camera into Aperture but something went wrong and not all the files made it into Aperure.
So I want to try again, but Aperture only lets me import new images that Ive taken since then, how can I get Aperture to show me ALL my photos that are on my camera to let me reimport the missing photos.
(Camera is Powershot SX200 IS)

To prevent such problems and others upload from camera card to computer hard drive using a card reader. Eject the card and then after backing up the pix on the hard drive import into Aperture.

How do I get my videos to upload from my sony handy cam when I get the message The following file could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognized format. I am using a macbook pro version 10.9.3, I have 411 gb free space, it worked before I updated

How do I get my videos to upload from my sony handy cam when I get the message The following file could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognized format. I am using a macbook pro version 10.9.3, I have 411 gb free space, it worked before I downloaded the latest update for iphoto.

You may be able to download and install the update from here: Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 6.01
If I upgrade to Yosemite will I be forced to go to the new Photos program
No. After upgrading (and of course make a back up first) you will need to update iPhoto to v9.6.1 (you won't be able to do this prior to upgrading). Here's how:
Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
Photos is v1 of a new app, as yes it's not as mature as iPhoto. It uses a different technology for working with external editors. That requires Adobe to write an extension to let it hook into the new app. Not done yet, neither has anyone else.
Going forward: iPhoto will run on OS 10.10., but there is no guarantee for subsequent versions of the OS. You might want to factor that into your anger term thinking.
