IPhone photos not showing up on Mac

I have an iPhone 6 plus running iOS 8.1.1. I have iCloud Photos beta turned on. When I connect the iPhone to my mac (mavericks, yosemite show same result) (or another mac, haven't tried a PC) it shows only 373 photos & videos when I have 2000. I cannot get any application (iPhoto, Camera import, FCP X) to show the 2000 photos. All the photos/videos are available on iCloud Photos on the web. I have not imported for a while, so I do not know when this issue started. I did have a problem a few weeks ago where the iPhone wouldn't show any photos/videos at all, just black thumbnails with 0:00. Any ideas?

If you want help you’ll need to give us more information. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 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.

New iPhone photos not showing up on new Photos app on iMac

In the past, when I took a photo on my iPhone, within moments it would show up on Aperture on my iMac in the iCloud tab. This is not happening on the new Photos app on my iMac using the latest OS.
In fact, there is not an "iCloud' stream area within the Photos app. Also, under iCloud system preferences, I have selected "iCloud Photo Library, My Photo Stream, and iCloud Photo Sharing."
Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

Same problem.
After USB is connected, iPhoto shows iPhone name with "(0)" photos.
Same whether iPhoto is open or closed before USB is connected.
Same whether iPhone is on or off when USB is connected.
Rebooting iPhone did not help.
Relaunching iPhoto did not help.
Rebooting Mac did not help.

Iphone photos not showing up on iphoto

Hello,
Camera roll is about 4.4GB, and I want to save my pics to the mac pro.
Problem:
First, I connect usb to mac book pro and :
1. Iphoto shows iphone 5 yet displays 'loading' message. No photos are uploaded.
2. Image capture also shows iphone 5, yet no files are displayed.
Second, icloud seems to have uploaded some of the recent pictures so I have them saved. Yet the old ones are still in my iphone.
Does anyone have similar issues? would appreciate some input.
Thank you,
Will

Photos Not Showing up on .mac Website

I'm having trouble with my .mac website. Any album that was originally created using the last version of iWeb...the photos do not show up. You can go to our website here: http://www.bastianwebsite.com
Fall 2007 was the first album that was created using iWeb 08. All other albums prior to that one the photos do not show up. When I open up iWeb the photos are in there. They just do not seem to load or at least they are not viewable via my website. Any help would be great appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom

Hi Tom,
First I'd like to tell you that you might think of reducing the number of photos showing per page as it makes the page load extremely slow if there are too many photos per page. 30 photos per page would be great and iWeb automatically creates 'sub pages'.
Second you might think of making 'Groups' to avoid the menu occupying half of the screen. Thus making having a "B'days" page and on that page have normal text links to the different B'days and a page called "Weddings" and have normal text links to the different weddings... The pages linked from these group-pages (thus particular weddings and B'days) wouldn't show up in the main menu (Inspector, Page tab, uncheck include page in navigation menu) result: the size of the menu is reduced and it does look better.
That said you might try to make a "publish all" in iWeb (File=>Publish all) instead of a simple publish to get the photos appearing on the web. I hope that helps. It may take a while seen the amount of pictures you have on the site...
(I know 'first' and 'second' were not required... But I thought they might be helpful...)
Regards,
Cédric

IPhone photos not showing in places on iPad

If I take photo on iPhone it shows ok in my iPad photostream but does not appear in places. Shows ok in places on iPhone. If I take photo on iPad it shows ok in places on iPad but not iPhone.
This was working ok, noticed it stopped about a week ago. Any ideas?

Update:
Just discovered location info is stored with photo. Uploaded some to Flickr & location was displayed. So it's not showing on iPad for some reason.

IPhone photos not showing up in photostream folder???

Earlier today i took a couple of photos which went into the photo stream folder and showed up in iPhoto on my macbook air the way they were supposed. Then this afternoon i tok a few more and now the photos keep going into the camera roll folder and don't synch. I don't recall changing anything. Any ideas? How do i get them to go into the photo stream folder again?

Greetings Eric,
To ensure the images do indeed have the GPS data embedded, drag one to the desktop and open it with Preview by double-clicking. Go to Tools > Show Inspector.
Click the More Info button, and then click GPS.
If there is no GPS option then this image has no GPS data embedded.
If it does have GPS data but iPhoto does not show the picture in Places (I'm assuming you already have images in iPhoto that DO Show up in Places), try reseting iPhoto to it's factory default state.
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 will may be more than one. Remove them all.)
If you still don't see the pictures in Places, try creating a new iPhoto Library and adding one of the pictures. Hold down option and launch iPhoto and click create new to make a new library.
If the pictures show up in Places fine in the new library then there is something wrong with your original library.
Use the option key to switch back to your original library and then follow http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638 to rebuild your library. Check off the bottom 3 rebuild options.
Hope that helps.

IPhone photos not showing up in places

I recently upgraded to iOS4. I OK'd the camera to store the GPS tag from where the photo was taken. When I pull it up in the photo library, it gives the correct location of the photos I have taken, so I know it's working.
...But it's not showing up in places, in iPhoto 09! It's as if the location data isn't transferring along with the photos when I import into iPhoto.
Any ideas?

Iphone apps not showing up on Mac after Sync

I've synced, but there are apps on my phone that are not showing up on the Mac. When I go to Itunes, the check box for "Sync Apps" is NOT checked. When I check it however, it warns me that all apps on my phone (and their respective data) will be erased and replaced with ones on the Mac. I don't want to lose all the new apps and data for said apps. I just want to get my new apps over to the computer.
Any help?
Thanks

Once I add the new apps to my Mac
An important piece of info there that you neglected to mention in your initial post. Have you never synced with this computer before?

I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto it. I cannot figure out how to do that. The iphone does not show up on my mac laptop as a connected device. Does this kind of download have to run through itunes? Thanks

Yes it is done through iTunes. The iPhone will never show up in Finder as a device. The following is general information on iTunes sync: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386 and the following is a previous discussion where the post by Andreas Junge helped others that had a problem syncing audiobooks: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20052732#20052732

Just updated iPhone 5 to ios7. Now when I plug in, iTunes does not download photos, and iPhone is not showing as a hard drive on my computer. Windows used to have a pop up to download photos, which is no longer there. iTunes is updated and iCloud isoff

I also recently installed Norton 360, but that was eliminated via Norton Help. They remoted in, removed Norton 360 and problem persisted - iPhone did not show on the "Computer" window, and no pop-up to download photos even with no antivirus installed. Norton help advised to uninstall and reinstall iTunes, which seemed a bit excessive. Any other fixes I can try before an uninstall and reinstall?

Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

Please help!! I got my iPhone 4s screen fixed, now in my Photos it shows nothing, although in my memory usage it shows 10.5gb of photos, thats 2000 photos not showing up. What happened?! Where did all my photos go?!

I got my iPhone 4s screen fixed, now in my Photos it shows nothing, although in my memory usage it shows 10.5gb of photos, thats 2000 photos not showing up. What happened?! Where did all my photos go?!

WOOHOO!!! i finaly fixed the problem. Here is what to do:
Chances are if you did the same thing as me you either have
A) No album names at all for ALL your songs in your library
or
B) Have the same name for every album for ALL your songs in your library.
Here is how to fix it (yah it will take a little work but its worth getting your iPod functioning properly).
Unless you dont want to have to go and actualy set al lthe album names for every song here is what you can do:
Go through to iTunes and arange your songs by Artist name. Click the top song for your first artist, hold Shift and click the last song for that same artist (to multi select all the songs for the artist) go into get info and check the Album box. Copy the name of the artist to the Album box and hit ok.
Now when u update your ipod and go into ur Artists section the actual Artist name should show up instead of the song names.
For some reason having the same album name for all your songs messes up the organization of the iPod.
Hope this helps anyone else that is having the same problem

Events entered on iphone not showing up on mac ical

Events entered on my iphone do not show up on my Mac ical.

rastro2,
Open "Settings" on the iPhone>Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks>Accounts>your MobileMe account and turn off "Calendars," when prompted delete data, and wait two minutes, then turn "Calendars" back on. When asked merge the data, make that choice, and wait patiently. If you are able, I recommend using a Wi-Fi connection to make the change.
Hopefully that will correct the problem.

My Photo Not Showing Up in Messages

My photo does not show beside my texts in Messages on my Mac. Only a shadow of a generic person in a rectangle is there. I can see the photos of others who write me, though. I have my photo in Contacts and it does show up in Mail, but not in Messages. My photo also shows up in IMessage on the iPad.
Why is my photo not showing up in Messages and how could I make it visible? Thanks.

HI,
Your Pic is set if you have Buddy list set up/logged in.
Enable the Bonjour account if you do not have Jabber, AIM or Yahoo IDs set up in Messages.
Click on the current Buddy Pic.
You may find it has pulled the Pic from the My Card in the Contacts app (Formerly the Address Book)
In turn this may be picking up on the System Preferences > User and Groups > your account Login pic.
That is to say when you set up the (Mac User) Account it asked you to create/chose a pic from the Login Screen.
Later the process of setting up an Accounts asked for details that create the Contacts/Address Book Card and the Login in pic is dragged across.
AS you then get to set up Messages (Or iChat) then the My Card pic is pulled through.
All three spots can be changed independently of each other.
Some of the Recent Items can be from either of the others.
This is my Buddy list pic and th "Recents" I have.
The Zebra and head in "teeth" pics are from some testing I did with Pics in the Contacts > My Card options rather than Messages.
Finally once you have a pic linked to Messages then it also show up at your end for the Chat window for iMessages (as well as for you in AIM or Jabber)
NOTE
In AIM and Jabber (Or Yahoo) your Pic is Broadcast and is what you Buddy sees next to your Name (They can override this though)
In iMessages though your pic is not sent and your Buddy's Contacts app supplies whatever pic they have for you. (As yours does for them)

New iMovie app for iPhone 4 not showing up in Location Services (Settings)

iMovie app for iPhone 4 not showing up in Location Services (Settings). It apprently needs to be both viaible and turned on in Settings/General/Location Services in order for the app to discover previously taken video (Location Services correctly recognizes other apps of mine that utilize location-aware services).
I think the following is related to and caused by this problem above: iMovie App for iPhone 4 is not recognizing video clips I have made, whether they're in Photo Album, or iPhone 4 native movies that have been throughout this process: [sync with iPhoto on Mac > save to to iPhoto album > sync album to iPhone 4].

Just had this same problem. The solution is to turn Location Services on before launching iPhone iMovie.
Yes, iMovie needing GPS coordinates is crazy, as is the error message that doesn't correctly explain the problem. Looks like a bit of a rush job.
