Ipad 3 won't read photos from sd card

Tried both inserting card into camera connection and using cable connection from camera. Neither work.

Hello there, Debbyresq.
The following Knowledge Base article provides some great recommendations and additional information on using the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit with your device:
iPad: Using the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4101
Improving performance
For best results and performance, see these guidelines:
Connect the iPad Camera Connector or SD Card Reader directly to the iPad and digital camera.
iPad Camera Connector only supports digital cameras and some USB audio/MIDI devices. Learn about using the iPad Camera Connector with unsupported USB devices.
If your device isn't recognized, verify that it's configured correctly. See the user manual for your device for more information.
Certain devices may be recognized only when used with a powered USB hub.
Here are the supported SD cards and image-transfer protocols:
Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP)
Mass Storage Device protocol
SDSC
SDHC
miniSD
microSD
MMC
SDXC
If your camera supports both PTP and Mass Storage Device modes, you may need to use both modes to import all media content. If some files don't import as expected using one mode, try switching to the other mode and importing again.
Some cameras may refer to PTP as Pictbridge or PTP/Pictbridge.
If you see a message that the "Attached volume appears to be invalid," make sure the SD card or digital media in the camera is correctly formatted.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Ipad will not open photos from sd card

ipad wll not open photos from an sd card

Are the photos on the card taken with a camera? If not, the card must meet all of these requirements...
The SD card must be formatted using MS-DOS (FAT).
Photos must be in a /DCIM folder folder at the thumb drive's root level
Photos must all have 8 character names plus the suffix, usually jpg or jpeg.

My iPad won't sync photos from my pc via iTunes. It did until yesterday.

I have moved my 7000 photos from one drive on my pc to another.
I have selected the sync all photos option with the correct folder in iTunes.
All 160 folders appear as empty albums during sync but then disappear again without being populated with photos.
I have had my ipad2 for about 12 months and have never had this problem before.
Does anybody have any ideas?

I had same problem and after reading these posts also decided to delete the 2 empty folders from my IPad and then tried again. It is now working. It doesn't seem to like to have empty photo albumn.s
I find this ironic because I didn't realize that by unchecking the folders to sync that it would then remove those pictures from my IPad. Don't understand why it doesn't just leave them there.

Ipad won't sync photos from computer although iPhone 5 syncing ok.

I have tried to load some recent photos onto my ipad by syncing with itunes but the syncing gets to step 6 of 7 and does not complete. My iPhone 5 has synced ok. Have tried switching the iPad on and off again and resyncing but no joy. Any ideas?

The message is that the computer is not associated with that account.
Are you trying to sync your iPad on a computer that you do not usually use to connect your iPad to?
You should use the computer with the backup of your iPad.

How can I get my new ipad 4 to read my compact flash cards? If not can I download the images directly from my camera?

how can I get my new ipad 4 to read my compact flash cards? If not, can I download the images directly from my camera?

Tom, thanks for your quick reply. I'm a commerical photographer using Canon 5D mk2's mostly and have in the past just downloaded images to a mac book for backup. I really liked the compact size of the Ipad and just got the retina model with the camera connection kit and seem to be hearing that CF readers can't be used with it b/c they draw too much power. Seems like I remember reading I could use a cord that might have come with my cameras to download directly to the Ipad. I haven't tried it yet as I can't find the connection but then you just said it can't be done?
   I'm COMPLETLY lost as to your "first pluging in a flash drive to my computer, advice. Do you mean Ipad when you say computer? "then put your movie/photo files into the folder." HOW????????
     Then plug it into the Ipad??????     TOTALLY lost.
Also your saying just "do a google search for a reader doesn't work b/c NONE are able to work with the newer Ipads b/c they use TOO much power or so everyone says everyone that have tried.
   Hope you can help a little more b/c I'm really getting frustrated with all the conflicting advice!
Thanks, Dennis [email protected]

All of a sudden my photostream on my iPad is down to 102 photos from 900, and it won't retrieve photos from my phone anymore

All of a sudden my photostream on my iPad is down to 102 photos from 900, and it won't retrieve photos from my phone anymore.
Does anyone know what's going on? TIA

PhotoStream is a convenient way to have photos available on multiple devices but it is not a long term storage or backup site for photos. There is a limit to the number of photos that will be kept on your photostresm and a 30 limit for photos. If you haven't already done so back up your photos to your computer.

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over correctly - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

IPhoto won't download photos from camera.

iPhoto won't download photos from camera. iMac 10.6.8; iPhoto updated. No Name comes up, says "downloading," but color wheel only goes round and round. I've let it go on for 20" to no avail. Only way to get out of iPhoto then is to Force Quit. Tried downloading pictures through a Card Reader with same results.
Same camera, same procedure for last 5 years and never had this problem. Thanks for any advice.

Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder:
User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

IPhoto[v 9.5.1] on MBP won't load photos from iPod touch Gen4 32GB, even if let run overnight

iPhoto [v 9.5.1] on MBP won't load photos from iPod touch Gen4 32GB, even if let run overnight and don't let machine go to sleep.
MBP has 8GB Ram and separate video card using 2.3 Ghx i7 processor ... so i don't think it is a hardware issue.

Hello A_MadDog,
It sounds like you are not able to import photos from your Camera Roll on your iPod touch. I recommend following the steps in the article below for the issue you described:
iOS: Unable to import photos to computer

My ipad won't sync photos, need help please

my ipad won't sync photos anymore, anyone out there can help

You could try clearing the photo cache.
You could also try a reset of the iPad and see if photos sync after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

IPhoto says it won't import photos from my Fujifilm Finepix S1000 camera because it's the wrong format (jpeg). It always has before... but I upgraded to Lion then went back to Snow Leopard and now it's not working. Suggestions? Thanks!

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?

I can't import photos from a card, file or anything. I get "could not copy a file to the requested location".. This has never happened before.

I can't import photos from a card, file or anything. I get "could not copy a file to the requested location". I have never had this happen before. I use a MacBook Pro

I also have the exact same issue. New IMac, installed LR, imported approximately 900 photos no problem, across the network from a Windows PC. The import stopped when the network connection was lost. Now I cannot import for the same reason "could not copy a file to the requested location". I have plenty of disk space and i have permission to the needed folders. I cannot even import from a folder already on the IMac.

hello everyone. I have recently installed a Samsung SSD (solid state hard drive) into my destop PC. For some reason Lightroom does not see it ? So i cannot ingest photos from it, or copy photos from a card to it. It is not listed as a drive option. LR sees every other drive. My computer sees it fine, so i was able to create a catalogue there. Im running windows 8.1. Any ideas ? I will also add that this drive became corrupt and was repaired by Samsung. Maybe they didn't do a very good job.. ..

Yes pretty much that, but to clarify sorry
Opened Lightroom.
Create new catalogue.
This opened the Windows 8 file explorer window and Windows recognises the drive. So I was able to create a catalogue there and save.
I then inserted my memory card into my card reader which LR recognised. I selected it, chose all the photos within and then navigated to the right side of the Lr import dialogue window to locate this problem drive as on this occasion i want the RAW files on the same drive as the lrcat. However all my other drives are listed but not this Samsung SSD.
In addition this Samsung SSD is not listed a drive to import from in the same dialogue window.

If I switch iPhoto libraries, will my iPad still keep the photos from the old library?

I have two iPhoto libraries. If I switch libraries will my iPad still keep the photos from the old library?

No. All photos must be included in every sync - each time that you sync. If you copy the photos from the one library into the other library - and then select the new photos along with the current photos to sync - then they will all sync to the iPad.
if you simply choose the new library to sync, it will replace the photos currently on the iPad.

IMovie '09 Won't Load Photos from iPhoto

I recently upgraded to iLife '09 at work and at home. My iMac at wok does fine with the up grade but iMovie on my intel based MacBook Pro won't load photos from iPhoto. Anyone else have this problem or can suggest what my problem may be? My software is up to date and other programs are working OK.

Hello, i have also had the same issue. Basically when i click on the photo icon in imovie 09 the library doesn't show,it's just blank but also my itunes library isn't showing up either. The only way i can get photos and music into imovie is by dragging them into imovie but thats not the way the program is meant to work and would also like to fix this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
