IOS4 photos do not appear in iphoto

HI!!
I have an iphone 3g with iOS4. After upgrading, photos taken from my iphone camera or even downloaded from the internet do not appear in iPhoto when I try to sync. I get a blank space with an outlined frame. Any fix? I have all updated software.

Greetings,
Ensure all your software is up to date (Apple Menu > Software Update).
Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
Home > Library > Caches (I remove the whole folder. It will be re-generated upon restart.)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
If the issue persists try importing using the Image Capture program found in the Applications folder.
If image capture works then try rebuilding your iPhoto Library following this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638. Use the bottom 3 rebuild options.
If Image Capture does not work then there may be an unreadable picture in the camera roll which is blocking import. See this article for suggestions: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3195
Hope that helps.

Why do videos from a shared photo stream not appear in iPhoto?

why do videos from a shared photo stream not appear in iPhoto? Within iMovie, it appears as though videos can be imported from the iPhoto library. However, within iPhoto there are no videos that appear within the Library. Is it possible to import photos into iPhoto from a shared photo stream? if not, how can videos be imported into iPhoto?

Hello BrJL,
Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.

Deleted videos or photos do not appear in iPhoto trash, Deleted videos or photos do not appear in iPhoto trash

Hello,
I'm trying to free up space on my MacBook Air by deleting videos & photos, but when I attempt to do so, the supposed deleted items do not appear in the iPhoto trash. Even if I drag to the trashcan in the list. What am I doing wrong? I delete manually the items, and they do disappear from view, but...where do they go/?
THanks!
Jacqueline

You need to restart your Mac after deleting data in order to see a difference in storage space on the hard drive.

Trashed photos do not appear in iPhoto trash

First time user, please be patient. I found this same question 30 minutes ago and now have lost it. I hate to ask again. I am using iP6. When I drag and drop photos into my trash, they are gone but do not appear in the trash? This just started about a month ago. One day it works a couple of times and then not? I am obviously doing something wrong.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
If you have an album selected from your Source Pane and delete photos (from the album) then the photos disappear from that one album, yet remain in your Library. This would explain why you don't see them in the iPhoto Trash Can. Choose Library from the Source Pane and you will find them somewhere. The photos will also remain in every other album, slideshow, book, etc. to which they were assigned. If you wish to place them into the Trash directly from the album, you can type Option-Delete or Option-Drag them to the Trash. Once you've placed them in the Trash and emptied the trash, they are gone from every occurrence in your library.
In contrast, when the Library is selected as your source, photos will go directly into the iPhoto Trash. Removing items from the Library will delete them from every instance - that is, every album, book, etc, as stated above.
The exception to the rule is that Smart Albums behave differently. Because assignment to a smart album is determined by meeting the criteria for the album, as long as the photo remains in your library it will remain in the smart album. (Unless you change the criteria.) As a result, deleting from a smart album will delete the item from the entire library.
Regards.

Imported photos are not appearing in iPhoto...

Beginning in late August, all of my newly imported photos are not showing up in iPhoto. However, I see them within the iPhoto directory. Everything imported prior to late August is just as it should be. Does anyone know the cause of this and how to fix it? Thanks!

Damaged database.
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. .

Black & White Photos to not appear in iPhoto

I added several black & white photos into the library of iPhoto along with many color photos, but none of the black & white show.
Each of the B & W have a black place holder but it is totally black. If I click a photo, it displays as a ghost image lacking detail.
I originally edited these photo scans in Photoshop and saved them as a jpeg image without layers.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

I had same problem. I scanned and saved as greyscale, imported and then they show up as black in preview, etc. Is there any way to change the photos that I have already scanned and saved without having to scan all of them again under the new profile?

IPad saved photos do not appear in iPhoto*

I have about 20 photos (screenshots) saved in my iPad photo album but when I open image capture or iPhoto they both say that there are no photos available for import. How do I transfer these images over? I also have photo sync on in my iPad settings but its not syncing to my desktop.
I am using a first generation iPad.

They were automatically saved to my 'Saved Photos' album. Id really love to not have to email myself every pic one by one. Seems like it should be easy to do??
It is very easy to do when it works - I have done it quite a few times.
and @Demo, I do have iPad clicked in both iPhoto and Image Capture. Both say I have no photos.
The usual route that I take when these things happen is to quit both apps on the Mac, reboot the Mac, restart the iPad and then try again.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
See if that helps at all.
If you do have to email the photos - you can do it in 4 emails - but I realize that you want to resolve this issue and I don't blame you!

Photos do not appear in iPhoto after upgrade

Hi,
I have searched around and no one else seems to have encountered this problem. I upgraded my apple to a iMac with Leopard and iPhoto 08, from an old Tiger machine. I moved the iPhoto library into Pictures and then loaded iPhoto. I agreed to allow iPhoto to upgrade my library. I didn't notice at that point whether all the photos were in the library. I have imported 38 pictures from my camera and now, for some reason, these are the only photos in the library.
When I look inside the library package, it has all of my photos in various places, and is almost 5GB in size, so I know the data is there. I have rebuilt the library, using cmd-option-iPhoto, but this has not changed anything.
Does anyone have any idea as to what is happening, and what I might to do rectify the problem?
Many thanks in advance.

Do you still have a copy of the old library on the other machine? If so you can try the following;
1 - move your current library to the desktop.
2 - copy the old library into the Pictures folder.
3 - run iRepair on the library as described below.
4 - launch iPhoto and convert the library to the iPhoto 08 format.
If that goes correctly you can then locate those 30 photos in the library on the desktop and import them into the new library. This will let you maintain your keywords, comments, slideshows, etc. from the old library.
Here's how to run iRepair:
Run iRepair on your iPhoto LIbrary package as follows:
1 - download iRepair and launch.
2 - click on the lock and enter your admin password
3 - click on the Select button and navigate to and select the iPhoto library.
5 - set the owner to your short admin name with read, write and execute privileges.
6 - set group to staff or the current group with read, write and execute privileges
7 - set others to read only
6 - click on the Apply button.
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 created 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Shared Photo Streams not appearing in iPhoto.

I have a few Photo Streams that were recently shared with me. I can access them fine on my iPhone. When I am on my MacBook Air however, these Photo Stream folders are no where to be found.
I followed this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3989 and more specifically double checked these instructions:
I don't see any photos or shared photo streams in the Photo Stream view of iPhoto or Aperture.
Check the following:
From your Mac, choose System Preferences > iCloud, and make sure the Photo Stream checkbox is enabled.
Open iPhoto or Aperture, choose Preferences > Photo Stream.
If you are using iPhoto 9.4 or later, or Aperture 3.4 or later, make sure that both the My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams checkboxes are selected. If you'd like all new photos that you've uploaded to your iPhoto or Aperture library to be uploaded to My Photo Stream, make sure that the Automatic Upload checkbox is selected as well.
If you are using iPhoto 9.2.2 through 9.3.2, or Aperture 3.2.3 through 3.3.2, make sure that Enable Photo Stream and Automatic Import are selected.
Make sure your Mac has an an active Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection.
Everything was set up as suggested above.
My Macbook is on iPhoto 9.2.3, with OS 10.7.5
My iPhone is on 6.1.3
Additionally, when i view photos from a shared photo stream folder on my phone and then select to save one of the photos to my Camera roll, the photo is still not syncing to my Photo stream on the Mac.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Larry,
Having a similar issue as the one described by kmacd... I'm trying to set up Shared Photo Streams between my MacBook Pro (Late 2009 13") and my iPhone 4, to essentially use them as streaming albums. Both devices are set up with iCloud with the same account, and both have all settings enabled for Shared Photo Streams, as I can create and modify streams in both. The problem is that when I create a new stream on one, it never shows up on the other! I never receive an invite, which I assume I wouldn't since it's all the same account. Just not sure why the Shared Streams don't sync over multiple devices when the normal My Photo Stream works perfectly fine. Any thoughts?? Thanks!
Hardware/Software Specs:
MacBook Pro 5,5 (Late 2009 13")
OS X Mavericks 10.9.1
iPhoto v9.5.1 (902.17)
Aperture 3.5.1
iPhone 4iOS 7.0.4
Note: I am currently in the process of downloading iPhoto 2.0 for iOS to see if there's any way to access the streams through that. Figured it's worth a shot!!

New Photos not appearing in iPhoto but are in Show Contents

Hello,
I am have a few issues with iPhoto.
1. My last two imports of photos do not appear. the Last import is showing photos from back in 2013. If I Show Contents I can drill down and see in Master, Original a 2014/04/12 & 13 folder with sub folders and all the pictures. I made a not of the file names and back in Iphoto I tried to search for the image name but it did not retrn any results
2. I have had to force quit iPhoto 2-3 times in the past two days
3. Today when I open iPhoto, the Events do not show photo is is a black box. If I scroll up and down it then shows some photos, like I would nomally see.
Do this issue seem to indicate a problem with iPhoto, is there an index type issuse.. can I rebuild iPhoto in some way
For point 1, can i delete the folders in the "Show Content" option and reimport them?
Thanks

For point 1, can i delete the folders in the "Show Content" option and reimport them?
No. If you know the file name of the photos that are not showing do a search form them with the search tool:
If the image shows up Control (right) - click on it and select Show Event from the contextual menu.
If it does'nt kdo the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

Organizer photos not appearing on iPhoto after I downloaded them

I have Elements 12 and some photos I downloaded from iPhoto to Organizer now are not appearing on iPhoto, and are grouped together as a folder in Organizer, instead of appearing individually in Organizer

Memory is getting small
By memory do you mean free disk space? How much free space do you have? It's strongly recommended that a minimum of 10GB free space be maintained (20 GB if you use iDVD a lot) for optimal system and application performance.
By searching for thumbnails can you explain further? Do you get a message?

HT1338 I have a problem with the aspect ratio of photos as they appear on iPhoto. They are not correct. On the original photo people were fat and squat. I tried rotating and they became long and narrow. Neither correct.

Sounds more like a problem with your Display Resolution than iPhoto.
Go to: Apple / System Preferences / Displays and in the Resolutions list select,
1280 x 800 if you have a 13" MacBook Pro
1400 x 900 if you have a 15" MacBook Pro
1920 x 1200 if you have a 17" Macbook Pro

Photos do not appear in imovie 11. black screen with frozen movie clip

Imovie 11 Photos do not appear in the movie a black screen for picture in picture or a frozen screen with sound and no photo

Yes
There is one possibility
• AVI or .avi is no Video Format/Codec - it is a container and usually contains something iMovie can not use OK.
Open it with QuickTime-player and then open inspector (cmd+I) and read
• Video Format/Codec: nnnnnnnnnnnnn
What does it read ? (all of it)
from wife Nikon D300s I read
Yours the same ?
Either I would
• import it into iPhoto and in iMovie import from title iPhoto Movies at top in Events window - or
• convert it into streamingDV .dv or AIC and use this.
AND - my read 24fps - I would convert this to PAL 25fps or to NTSC 29.97 (if for US) by JES_Deinterlacer.

Photos do not appear properly on MyWay homepage.

When I do a restart of my laptop and open Firefox, my homepage (MyWay.com) opens properly showing photos. See attachment. After closing Firefox, and then reopening it, the photo do not appear, and the wheel in the upper left hand corner goes round and round like it is attempting to download something. Something is happening after I close the Firefox browser that seems to be causing this problem.
