Check the iPhoto preferences:
From the main menu bar: iPhoto > Preferences > General:
"Connecting camera opens" : Set this option to "iPhoto".
If that does not help, disconnect your iPhone and reset your iPhone.
To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

HT204291 Airplay Icon lost from both my iPhone and Macbook Air

I've lost the Airplay Icon from both my iPhone and Macbook Air, so I assume there's something up with my AppleTV setup (connected via LAN ).
Airplay was working fine until recently.I've checked all settings and they seem ok. Anyone any further ideas?
All other functions work ok, streaming video off the net , playing iTunes (installed on Macbook Air) from AppleTV etc
I've just lost Airplay from 2 devices.
AppleTV was updated in the last few days, but the Icon was lost before that.
Thanks in anticipation.

OK. Solved !
A simple reboot of my modem/router (the fibre one from BT - BT Infinity) fixed this for
both my iPhone and Macbook Air.
I can also mirror my iPhone screen to the AppleTV now too.
(mirroring only worked from my Macbook Air before)
That must be a new feature. Excellent !
I guess I should have tried that before, but maybe this will help someone
Happy Easter

Airport Express 802.11n keeps disconnecting Airplay with iPhone and Macbook Air

I purchased this Airport Express on Jan 7, 2012. It was working fine.
I used it for airplay only to play my itunes music to my speakers. My speakers are connected to an amplifier that is inturn connected to the Airport Express via an optical cable. I have not use it with a printer. I do not use it as a wifi to access the internet.
It was working fine until about a month or so ago when after playing a few songs it would disconnect. Now after less than 2-3mins it would disconnect. When I try to manually reconnect with my iPhone or Macbook Air, it would say that is unable to connect to the Airport.
If I keep trying, eventually it will connect and then after 2-3 mins it would cut off again. The amber light would show contineously.
I am at wits end. I have not changed the arrangement at all since Jan. What could have happened?
About a month ago there were an update to Airport Utility. I ran that update. Could that be the problem?
I'd appreciate if someone could help me. The warranty will run out a less than a month. How timely isn't it.
Is the router broken. If so why does it still allow me to use Airplay but only for a few minutes (less than a song)?
Thanks in advance for any help and or advice.
Mike

Unfortunately there could be any number of possible causes. Your router could be at fault, or the Express, or something else that is affecting both. To troubleshoot this issue you would have to eliminate or significantly reduce one or more of these possibilities.
Try performing a "hard reset" of the Express and configure it anew. Sometimes an internal parameter becomes corrupted that only a "hard reset" can fix.
The following is an excerpt from:
Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule FAQ
Hard reset
Press and hold the reset button with a pen or pencil until you see the status light (LED) start to flash amber rapidly, which should occur after about five seconds.
Release the button, and the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule will hard reset.
... but read the entire document to ensure you do it correctly. An Express that has been "hard reset" will create an open network with the name "Apple Network nnnnnn" where nnnnnn = the last few digits of its MAC address.
If you do not see the network with that name, the "hard reset" did not take effect, which will happen if you do not hold its little reset button long enough. In that case do it again.
Following the "hard reset", reconfigure your Express.
Failing that, position the Express closer to your wireless router. This may not be a practicable long term solution for you but it will minimize the possibility that wireless interference is causing the problem.
Consider substituting another router, to eliminate that as the cause.
Finally, you could take your Express to Apple who may simply offer you an exchanged unit. It will most likely operate perfectly well for them so you will not be able to demonstrate this failure mode, but you can explain you did all that I suggested above without success.

We have an "old school" DVD player (Sony dvp-nc80v) that plays music throughout our home. Is there a connector that we can purchase to hook-up our iPhone or MacBook Air to also play music until we buy some new equipment?

We have an "old school" DVD player (Sony dvp-nc80v) that plays music throughout our home via connection to multiple embedded speakers. Is there a connector/piece of hardware that we can purchase to hook-up our iPhone or MacBook Air to also play music until we buy some new equipment?

A crude but effective way would ,assuming the Sony has an AUX in ,
is a stereo bluetooth receiver
plugs into aux and recives music over B/T from
the iPhone etc ,as used by many in vehicle
For instance as an example

Can you help me solve ical synch problem going from iPhone to MacBook Air?

My iPhone calendar contains a lot of important meetings. I am about to migrate from my 3GS to iPhone 5 but since I cannot seem to properly synchronize my iCal from my iPhone to to my MacBook Air, i.e. I cannot see any events from my iPhone in my Mac's calendar. I am thus afraid to activate and jump to my iPhone 5, which is collecting dust at this point, because if this calendar fails to reemerge from the "Cloud" I am in deep horsedung.
I have all of the iCloud settings turned on for synching. I have gone to Storage and Backup and hit Synch Now and that update seems to occur via any feedback my iPhone is giving me.
I have a suspicion that since I was forced to create a 2nd account in order to synch "Notes" to the iCloud that such may be causing some of the problems, but honestly, prior to doing that I synched to iCloud so this inability to see my iPhone calendar on my Mac is more longstanding.
I also cannot seemingly log out of iCloud with one ID on my MacBook Air and sign in with another without iCloud telling me that I am going to lose all of my Contacts and previous data that I synched up with the current ID. What's that all about? That does not seem like typically brilliant Apple Design to me. Most of end up with more than one Apple ID, especially since the "Notes" synch forces you to sign up for yet another iCloud ID. I thoroughly researched that problem online at many forums before reluctantly adding another Apple ID.
My environment is MacBook Air OS X 10.7.4 and 3GS with IOS 5 (iPhone 5 with undoubtedly IOS 6 sitting in the hangar)
Thanks for any insight in advance.

I just moved to Germany, I want to know if an adapter and converter is needed to charge my iPod, iPhone and MacBook Air is needed or can I simply use an adapter? Will the voltage automatically change?

I am having a really hard time with keeping my charger on the adapter/converter that I bought for my trip but I also bought an adapter and with that my charger doen't fall and my apple products would be able to charge withought me having to hold the charger in place. I want to know if the converter is needed or if I only need the adapter. I do not want to blowout my iPhone, iPod or my MacBook Air.

All that is requried is an inexpensive plug adapter. Apple's power adapters themselves will work with any utility power on Earth. Non-Apple power adapters may not.
I don't understand what you mean by having to hold the charger in place though.

Try resetting your NVRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Can't connect my iphone with macbook air

Updated both my iphone 5s and my MacBook Air with latest software and was so excited to start using handoff, but it´s just not working.
Maybe there´s someone who can help me and guide through all this.

The following may help (although many are still having issues): Get help using Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite
One thing that has been a source of confusion is people are attempting to pair the phone and Mac via Bluetooth. You cannot do that. Bluetooth needs to be on for both devices and they need to be in range but you cannot pair them. Here is an excellent article about that: Bluetooth: Why can't I pair my iPhone or iPad with my computer?

Using iphone with macbook air to access internet away from home

Can I use the iphone as a dongle to access internet on Macbook air. I find using the iphone fiddly and would prefer the laptop when away from home.

You can, but you have to pay an additional fee to AT&T. I think it's about $20/month for tethering.

Storing the contact of iPhone in Macbook Air

I have Macbook Air and Iphone 4S. I do not find any means to store my Iphone contacts in Macbook Air. Please inform how I can store my Iphone contacts in Macbook Air. I do not want to use icloud. Because I want to see the contact when I do not have iphone with me and also when there is no internet available.

Use icloud.
It will sync them to your macbook air. They will be there even when you have no internet.

Can't pair iphone with macbook (air)

I haven't been able to pair my iphone 3GS with my macbook. I want to pair it via bluetooth to use an app that I purchased to control keynote.
I have had this problem with a macbook and macbook air. Two weeks ago my main computer was an older black macbook and my iphone would not pair with my macbook, I thought maybe because the macbook was just getting on; as my (bad) luck would have it I was foced to purchase a new computer, and purchased a macbook air and I am just finding that it still doesn't work.
When I go to pair it, I can get to the point where I accept the pair but then when I click on pair from the iphone, it says my macbook is not supported.
I have searched these forums and have not found an answer that works for me. Thanks in advance for any help that you can give.

This is a problem with the bluetooth and the macbook air. I mentioned the reason behind my need to pair - as it is not to share music, internet, etc. which I understand may be an issue. I cannot find how to get support from the app maker, which is apple from my understanding. This app, keynote, only controls the keynote app on my mac. I haven't had any problem pairing the iphone and keynote but I need to control my keynote using bluetooth, as I have no garuntee that I will always be in a place with wifi or be able to access the wifi.

Installing pages from iPhone to macbook air...

I bought Pages on my iPhone and I want install this app to my new macbook air now for free. Is it possible install this app for free to macbook air? Thanks.

No they are 2 separate purchases for 2 separate OSes.
One for iOS bought from the iTunes store and,
One for Mac OSX bought from the Mac App Store.
They can then be used on as many of your iGadgets, or Macs using the same Apple I.D. and OS.
