Iphone only wants to import pictures to computer

When I connected my phone to the computer the other day it asked me what I wanted to do when the phone is connected. I thought I just closed it but I must have chose import pictures because that's all my phone wants to do now. When I connect it to the computer a window pops up asking me if I want to import the pictures and I click no or close and it just closes and that's it. I'm not given any other options. Since I'm trying to work with music and not pictures, I'm wondering if there's a way to change what the phone does when it's connected. It used to automatically open ITunes whenever it was connected and I could just go ahead and sync it but it's not even showing up in ITunes. I've been to the forum and tried everything that was suggested. I uninstalled and reinstalled ITunes, I restarted my computer with the phone connected, the apple mobile device driver is there, nothing helps. I have a feeling it all has to do with what the computer wants to do with the phone when it's connected, and that's pictures. If I don't want to import pictures then it doesn't do anything. Where do I change this?

Check that your preferences are correct, under iTunes preferences check that under devices this is unticked, this should mean that iTunes opens when a device is connected
For photos go to iPhoto preferences and choose this option under the general tab 
Hope this helps

  • HT4915 How do you stop syncing address and calendar to iCloud? I only want to sync  from my computer to iPhone.

    How do you stop syncing address and calendar to iCloud? I only want to sync  from my computer to iPhone.  This is because I cannont upgrade to Lion and I do not want to get duplicate contacts when I sync from the computer 10.6.8 to my iPhone iOS5.  You should not upgrade to Lion upless you have 4GB of ram. Lion does not support rosita so all your old programs will not funtion and you have to repurchase all old software the is working fine.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Settings > iCloud, turn off contact and calendar syncing.

  • How import pictures from Computer To itunes??

    How import pictures from Computer To itunes??

    I'd like to add some personal photos to my iTunes account, library...WHATEVER!...so that I can attempt to use them as screensaver pics for my Apple TV component. Screensaver takes to the screen while playing music from my iTunes library that displays on the TV screen. Understandable....but if I can transfer some of my personal photos into my iTunes library/account...whatever...I'm sure there's a way to use them on my screensaver, rather than looking at friggin' ducks, fish, and trees, etc. seems like a simple and obvious concept to me! How do I do it?

  • I bought a new iphone and want to import my photos that were on my other phone

    I bought a new iphone and want to import my photos that were on my old iphone; hoping they are on the icloud somewhere

    I am assuming that if it was done at the Verizon store that it was an iCloud backup.
    On the phone, go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
    When the phone reboots it will be back to factory. Go through the setup and when it asks if you want to setup as a new phone or from a backup, choose to restore from iCloud Backup.
    The screen will look like this:
    Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
    If you are not sure if it is backed up and you have anything worth while on there now then you should backup before you start.

  • How do I import pictures from computer files more than one at a time ?

    I recieved the adobe photoshop elements 10 for x mas and no problems with downloading the program but i am having a time importing pictures from my computer files taken from various camaras. the problem is that i can only import pictures from my files 1 at a time. what do i do ? is there a specific tutoral i need to watch ? I know i'm doing something wrong i just don't know, please help Kev

    Welcome to the forum.
    You should be able to use the Shift, or Ctrl modifier keys, to select multiple files, and Import them.
    Now, for Stills, I would strongly suggest that you Scale those Still Images to about the Frame Size of the Project, prior to Import.
    Good luck,

  • ITunes asks me to authorize my computer but after I do, when syncing my iPhone, it wants me to authorize the computer

    I want to sync my stuff on iTunes from my iPhone 4S, (iOS version 7.0.4) but it wants me to authorize my computer. I did that and it said this computer is already authorized. When I try to sync the iPhone again, it said the computer is no longer authorized for purchaced items that are in this iPhone. It proceeds to intruct me on how to authorize the computer. I authorized the computer 7 times and the error shows up all the time. I even restarted iTunes (losing what I edited) and it still did not work. Why?

  • Import pictures from computer

    does anyone know how to get a jpeg or gif file into the phone from a windows computer to use as wallpaper?

    This thread might help
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1096620&tstart=0
    And e-mailing photos to yourself does not help, you can just view them on the iPhone, you cannot save them on the phone or use them as wallpaper

  • IPhone 5 - want to upload only a few pictures to my computer

    Am looking for a way just to upload a few of my pictures from my iPhone 5 to my computer. I don't wan them all - only a few! Is there a way to do this? Using Windows 7.
    Thanks!

    Thank you but this did not help - it only wants to import ALL pictures and there is nowhere that I can specify that I only want to import some. I looked at the Import Settings and there is no mention of this anywhere.
    I went to My Computer and right clicked and that is where I found the import section...

  • What is the best way to import pictures from iPhoto without compression?

    I'm trying to create a slide show using Final Cut Pro. No, I'm not interested in using iDVD slide show function because it doesn't allow me to do a whole lot. I would like to add titles and music for certain segments with video inserted here and there.
    Anyway, when I used the slide show function in iPhoto, exported it out as a quick movie file, and then imported it into Final Cut Pro, I noticed a significant downgrade in quality of images. It obviously looks different from when I play the slide show in iPhoto. What would be the best way to import pictures into Final Cut Pro without any compression?
    Thanks in advance.

    I only see Share > Export.
    Some versions of iPhoto work that way -it's just Apple moving things around.
    what's the difference between exporting it from iPhoto then import it into FCP vs. just importing directly from FCP?
    Your first post mentioned exporting a slide show from iPhoto -I assumed that is where your images are stored.
    I do not want to import pictures one by one...
    You don't have to. iPhoto will let you select as many as you want, or if the images are elsewhere, you can also select multiple files from FCP's Import dialog.
    ...and stick them together manually.
    Editing is an art and involves some effort on your part. It is not an automated process. This method opens up far more possibilities, access to filters and color correction and the opportunity to use Motion for even more sophisticated animation.
    But, it only allows me to export it as 720 x 480. The original size of my photos is 3872 x 2592. Is there any way I can create a quicktime file in the original size?
    You should be aware that 3872 x 2592 is not a standard pixel aspect ratio that is used in video. The images will be resized to the Sequence settings that you set up in Final Cut Pro.
    I have never used iPhoto to make a slideshow before, but I just gave it a try and was able to export one with the images in their native size, simply by typing the pixel dimensions into the boxes in the dialog window:
    I don't have PhotoMagico myself, but it comes highly recommended by several of the forum regulars.
    Perhaps one of them will see this discussion and help with your last question.

  • Importing pictures into the item master data

    Hello, everyone,
    I want to import pictures into the items master data - does anyone know which size the picture should have?
    The problem is - i just tested it with some pics of 640x480, but the placeholder in the item data must be smaller, so the picture is scaled down and as result of that it doesn't look good (the colors are falsified and there are also some artifacts). If I double-click the picture and it's opened in an own window in its original resolution - everything is fine..but i want a good quality of the picture in the item data already.
    So my first idea was to make pictures of the resolution of that placeholder in SBO, but i don't know how to get this. Any ideas?
    Best Regards,
    Leon Detzel

    Hi Ulrich
    The picture size does not matter, but rather a setting in Administration > System Initialization > General settings > Display TAB. On this tab you will find a setting with a drop down called "Ext. Image Processing". Set this to full and the full quality of any pictures will be used, but of course resized to fit the field. Bear in mind that images are not embedded in the tables but only the file name of the image is stored in the table.
    Kind regards

  • IPhone only syncs to my girlfriend's Macbook Air

    Some how along the way, my iPhone syncing transfered from my Macbook Pro to my girlfriend's MBA. When I plug in my phone to my computer, iTunes does not automatically start and when I manually start it, my phone does not appear in the Devices sidebar. When I try to Wifi Sync, my iPhone only wants to sync to her laptop, not mine.
    Note, I had the iPhone before the girlfriend (and thus her MBA) so it was syncing to my laptop at one point.
    How do I fix this? I want my iPhone to sync to my laptop and her iPhone to sync to hers.

    If you have been using wifi syncing with her laptop you first need to disable this by unchecking this on the Info tab of the sync settings on her computer, followed by syncing.  Then when you attempt to sync with your MBP, if not done carefully, you will losing everything on your phone.  You first need to copy your iTunes library from her computer to yours (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527) unless your music and other media is already in the iTunes library on your MBP.  Once done, carefully follow the steps in wjosten's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/13356770#13356770 (substitute Outlook for iCal and Address Book in step 2).

  • My music only wants to play in wifi area?

    My music on my iPhone only wants to play in a wifi zone. When I leave the wifi area only half of them are lite up, the other half doesnt have color but they are there. I seriously dont know what is going on! I even try going onto itunes and syncing the songs but they dont want to sync either! Any ideas on what to do?

    As explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3819, with home sharing you are stream music over your wifi network from the iTunes library you are sharing to your device.   As such, as soon as you leave the wifi network the music is no longer available.  You should be able to sync the music to your device with iTunes so it is available wherever you go.  If it is not all in the library you sync with, you would have to use home sharing to copy it from the other library to your library prior to syncing it to your phone.

  • Import pictures using SD adapter

    I have a SD card adapter & want to import pictures, but the photo app says no pictures available, but they are on the SD card.

    If you copied the photos onto the card yourself, then you need a DCIM directory off the root of the card, with the photos underneath it with filenames exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus their file extension i.e. in the same format as if a digital camera had written them to it.
