IPhone connection to imac iphoto

I have an imac running Snow Leopard.  I also have an iphone 5 with ios 7.0.3.
Previously I could connect the phone to the mac and it would be available as a device in iphoto.  No longer!
Any tips to get this going agin please?  Very frustrating having to email all photos from the phone to load them onto the mac.

It may not be the case for all iPhone users after upgrading to iOS 7.x.x, but I had to authorize my MacBook Pro after installing the new iOS version. Maybe you should go to the Store menu in iTunes, and check if your Mac is authorized or not. If not, well, then, authorize it...
After that, you may have to restart iTunes.

  • IPhone photos to iMac iPhoto

    I have a new 3GS. It will not email my iPhone photos nor can I import them into my iMac running iLife 08 and OS 10.5.7. The iPhone shows up in iPhoto on the iMac but it says there are no photos on it when there are. I did not have this problem with either my previous 3G or 2G.

    How are you attempting to email the photos? The mot direct way is the Share function in the Photos app .. though that will give you 800x600 version. Or you can copy them there and paste them into an email. But there are known problems emailing photos via Yahoo.
    If I open iPhoto and plug in my 3GS, the photos appear in iPhoto. If not operator error, perhaps your 3GS has a problem.

  • My wife received a new iPad Mini for Christmas-- when connected to iMac, icon appears in iPhoto sidebar; however, there appears to be no option to "unmount." Also, unlike my iPhone 4S whose icon appears in iTunes sidebar, the Mini does not. Any insights?

    First open iTunes (version 11). Then connect the iPad. Now is it recognized?
    If not .............

  • Can iTunes open and not iPhoto when iPhone connected?

    When I connect my iPhone 5 to my iMac, iPhoto opens and I have to manually open iTunes. Is it possible to have iTunes open automatically and not iPhoto when I connect the iPhone?

    Go to preferences of each program and set it up however you like.

  • How to connect my iPhone to my iMac trough bluetooth?

    How to connect my iPhone to my iMac trough bluetooth?

    If you have a wifi router you can set up/turn on the wifi... set the user name and password wifi in your router... open wifi in general settings on the iPhone... log into your router, user name and password. (If your don't know how to turn on the router wifi. Google the router make and model and you will find instructions on how to do this.)
    If you don't have a wifi router and your Mac has wifi capabilities you can hookup to the internet over wifi from your Mac to your iPhone.
    System Preferences on the Mac... Network... Wifi... Advanced tab... Hit the '+' to add a user name and password...
    Make sure you use WPA2 Personal for Security... Hit ok... Turn on the wifi... Same as above with the iPhone, log into your wifi settings on the iPhone.
    *Important point... Use WPA2 for the encryption/Security setting. If you use anything else for this setting, your wifi can be hacked.

  • HT201302 Old iphone 3g has photos on it. When I plug into my imac iphoto and image capture only bring up photos in the camera roll. There were more photos on albums and photo library on the iphone that arent showing up in iphoto and icapture.

    My old iphone 3g has photos on it. When I try to get the photos off and onto my imac iphoto and image capture only bring up the camera roll. I have more pictures that arent on the camera roll there are albums and a photo library full of pictures that I want off of this dang phone. I have tried everything and I cant email them to myself because the service has been cut off of the phone. They are stuck on the phone there is there any way to get them off? Am I missing something.

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  It simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.
    Again, the photo sync is one way.
    Did you fail to maintain a backup copy of your old computer?
    Not good.  You can e-mail the photos from your iphone.  You do not need to have phoe service for this.  The iphone uses wi-fi.  The photos will never be of the original quality, as they are reduced when synced to iphone.

  • How do you get iPhone 5 to connect to iMac through bluetooth?

    How do you get iPhone 5 to connect to iMac through bluetooth?
    I know the basic steps, but all I get is pairing unsuccessful. I'm using an older bluetooth, would that make a difference? I got connected once with a Motorola bluetooth, but can't reconnect. TIA!

    Try the Bluetooth Troubleshooting steps here:

    Note that you need to have Personal Hotspot set up with your carrier and on your iPhone before you can connect the computer.

  • Connecting an Iphone to an Imac

    I download ICreate mag to my Iphone. How can I connect my Iphone to my Imac so I can read it on my Imac. There is a mini DVI port on my Imac is it possible? What would I need to connect the Iphone to my television? I would prefer to use my Imac.
    Thanks

    Are you talking about this app:

    If so, you can only use it to read on your phone or ipad.

  • When i connect my iphone to my imac itunes opens but my itunes is not there.  My wife has recently added herself to the computer

    When i connect my iphone to my imac, itunes opens but my itunes is not there.  My wife has recently added herself to the computer
    and her itunes appears but i cannot find my itunes?

    Not really! Anyhow, what do you want to achieve. The only things you can access in your iPad outside of using iTunes are photos and videos. [Locate the iPad as any other external device through Windows Eplorer or Finder and dig through the folders.]
    You are fortunate that iTunes opens when you connect the iPad since many other users have difficulty in achieving this. It is from there that you can manage what you want synced to the iPad.

  • Connecting iphone 3gs to imac using bluetooth

    How can i connect my iphone 3gs to imac using bluetooth. On the mac it displays that my iphone does not have the "necessary services". On the iphone it just has the loading circling and not even recognizing a device. Plz Help.

    For what purpose are you trying to connect the two?
    The only thing you can connect a Mac to an iOS device for is Internet Tethering (Personal Hotspot) - nothing else.

  • My iphone freezes up frequently and i have to connect to Imac to restart. Any easire fixes?

    My Iphone frequently freezes up, especially after a download. To get it working I need to connect to Imac. Any easier way to fix or avoid?

    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
    Have you tried ALL the troubleshooting steps?  If you have and you're still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and possible exchange.

  • HT201317 How do I upload photos in my iPad/iPhone 5 photostream more than 30 days old to my brand new iMac iPhoto?

    I just bought a new iMac 21.5" and am uploading all my music and pics from my external, iPad and iPhone 5.  My iPhoto in my iMac only uploaded the last 30 days of pictures in my photostream, and I've got like 5 months worth of pictures in there that I want on my iMac.  Is there a way to load all of them at once by adjusting the time limit of how far back it loads, or do I somehow have to transfer each picture individually to my iMac from my iPhone/iPad?

    Hello!
    I would recommend you enable Shared Photo Streams on all your devices, then on your iOS device(s), go to Photos > Camera Roll > Edit, and tap all the photos you want to send to the Mac. Then hit the Share button and choose Photo Stream. Enter in your own email address and complete the steps. Then open iPhoto on the Mac and click Photo Stream in the sidebar. You will see the album you just created appear, double click it and your photos will begin to download. Once they're all there, select them all, right click, and choose Import. All your photos are now stored locally in iPhoto, and you can delete that Shared Photo Stream.
    Or you could plug your iOS into your comuter which will open iPhoto and will allow you to import the photos, if you don't mind not doing it wirelessly.
    Hope that helps!

  • When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically

    When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically, even though I have the "open iTunes when this phone is connected" option checked. I'm on the latest Snow Leopard with iTunes 10.4 and use an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.4.  I think the problem began with the latest iTunes update.

    Found the answer in another discussion! Here's what worked:
    "I also had the same problem, iTunes 10.4 wouldn't launch when connecting iPhone 3GS.
    I unchecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected", restarted, launched iTunes and connected iPhone, rechecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected".  I was asked if I wanted to install iTunes helper and said yes.  All works again."

  • What will happen after disabling iCloud and connecting my iPhone to my iMac?

    Now that I disabled iCloud on my iPhone, indeed the data is still available on my iPhone.
    But now I tried to disable iCloud on my iMac, the data is lost.
    Is it safe to connect my iPhone to my iMac and will my data (from my iPhone) be restored on my iMac? Or will I los all data?
    Thanks in advance for your advice!

    The other 2 applications open like normal. All three give me info.
    Pages     ver.4.1          265.8MB
    Numbers ver. 2.1          89.5MB
    Keynote ver. 5.1.1        238.1MB
    They all list Apr 3 as the last time opened. That was when I upgraded to Mavericks. I certainly used pages and numbers since then as I have alot of my work files on this computer?
    Just very odd. I did find my original iWorks disc from when I bought the computer. I'm assuming i can reinstall it. Will try that. Thank you for all your help. Would still like to know what did happen?
