IPhone does not open in iPhoto 08!

Neither my previous iPhone 3GS og my iPhone 4 opens or mounts in iPhoto 08.
Come on now please get it fixed!
It only mounts after 5 minutes or so.

Yes, I'm having the same issue in iPhoto '09. The iPhone 4 is very slow in showing up in iPhoto, regardless of whether the preference setting to open iPhoto upon connecting a camera is active or not. It can take minutes for the iPhone to show, but eventually it will show up in iPhoto. Connecting the phone to my Mac will cause iPhoto to open immediately, but the iPhone device will not show up in the iPhoto listing bar on the left for some time.
Not sure if this is due to the number of images on the phone that I've already uploaded to iPhoto but not removed from the phone. Thus iPhoto has to take the time to discern which are "new" and which have already been shown (note the checkbox setting in bottom of iPhone images window that asks if you want to show photos already downloaded in iPhoto).

    Thanks

    Simply copy the iPhoto Library Folder from the Pictures Folder on your old machine to the same location on the new one. The launch iPhoto. That's all.

  • When I insert a SD card in the side of my Mac it does not open in IPhoto it opens in desktop.  it used to open in IPhoto..what gives?

    When I insert a SD card in the side of my Mac it does not open in IPhoto it opens in desktop.  it used to open in IPhoto..what gives?

    Same thing is happening to me but I am using a card reader. Can't get any explanation besides checking the preferences. I can import by downloading to desktop then importing to iphoto but never had to do that before.

  • Mail does not open after IPhoto compose.

    I want to email photos from IPhoto 7.1.3
    I hit the email button, make the appropiate choices, hit the compose button.
    The application prepares the photos for email and then... nothing.
    The mail application (3.2) does not open on a new message page with photos attached.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If resetting the email preferences to Mail try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. Launch iPhoto and try again.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger 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.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • IPhone does not appear on iPhoto

    I have a problem with a couple of iPhones in combination with iPhoto. When I plug the iPhone in my iMac (late 2009), it gets recognized with iTunes and the synchronisation process starts. Everything is fine, however iPhoto does NOT notice that an iPhone is connected. Also the "Image Capture" app does NOT see the iPhone. A quick search showed me that a lot of people have the same problem, f.e.: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2251952?start=45&tstart=0
    I was wondering is more people are facing the same problems and what the correct solution would be?

    Hmmm.... interesting conundrum.. try restarting all devices, computer, iphone, etc. and give it another go.  Other than that, try going to finder and seeing if it recognizes the device, and see if you can get the photos that way.

  • Why my pictures does not open on iphoto?

    hi , i can't open my photos on iphoto

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • HT4236 Ever since I got the iTunes upgrade, iPhoto does not open and take the photos from my iPhone.  I have the older version of iPhoto, so Photo Stream does not work.  Can you please help?

    Ever since I got the iTunes upgrade, iPhoto does not open and get pictures from my iPhone.  How do I fix this?  Thanks.

    You can stop new photos being automatically added to Photostream in iPhoto from iPhoto preferences > Photostream.

  • I got a new Macbook pro in March and transferred all of my old files into the new macbook from my old one. But ever since then, my iPhoto just does not open up. It says 'error' every time I try to open it, but I am still able to attach the iPhotos saved

    I got a new Macbook pro in March and transferred all of my old files into the new macbook from my old one. But ever since then, my iPhoto just does not open up. It says 'error' every time I try to open it, but I am still able to attach the iPhotos saved to emails. Help! How do I get my iPhoto back?

    Thanks, Sig.
    The old computer is a 2.6 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
    The new one is a 2.3 GHz intel core i7
    In going over this, thanks to "tallking it out" with you, I did discover the Text Edit problem.  Because I've still been unable to get the new computer text size (fonts or whatever) to match the old computer, I did not notice that the curser is now different--the line midway down the curser has to be placed on the line I am working upon, otherwise the edits go elsewhere on the page.  Now, with a bit of difficulty, I am able to get Text Edit to work correctly.
    If you have any ideas as to why my menu bar and Text Edit type are still so slow, I'd love to have them. 
    (I went through the process you suggested earlier, re my Trackpad preferences, and found no improvement.)

    I tried hard reset on my iPhone. I tried restarting laptop and iPhone. I tried a different laptop. I tried removing driver and reinstalling from Device Manager but did not find a driver other than "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" under "Universal Serial Bus controllers" which I heard shouldn't be uninstalled.
    Anything I haven't tried?
    HELP!

    Are you seeing your music listed in the iPod screen, or in Win explorer as in your earlier post?
    I can see all the songs in my Edrive>al's Ipod> Ipod Control> Music folder.
    A corrupted iPod database, will report zero music used, and have your music size reported as others, so you wont see the music in the iPod screen. Sorry, I thought there was some hope for you with iPodAccess, in recovery of the corrupted iPod database with your ratings.
    You can try to borrow and  use the Mac Disk Utility ->First Aid ->Repair.
    Of course, if your iPod Hardisk is in a bad state, from the Disk Diagnostic report, then all my suggestion are futile.

  • HT2638 since updating iPhoto it has ceased to open.  i have tried to Hold down the Command and Option keys on the keyboard but it does not work.  iPhoto still does not open

    thank you

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
        Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache folder(s):
    Home/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    and, if there is one, the
    Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    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:

  • SMS does not open in iphone 3g after installing os4

    After installing OS4, the SMS box does not open for hours. I end up trying 80-100 times before it opens. I have tried restoring the phone and re-installing. Also notified apple help desk. I bought this phone in India for USD800. The so called upgrade has rendered my phone useless. Never again will ever buy an Iphone. Feel like smashing this trash on jobs' head......

    It's funny how multitasking doesn't work on the 3G iPhone with iOS 4, but it works PERFECTLY on a jailbroken iPhone running OS 3 (and with previews!) Pathetic.
