IPhone5 no longer importing pictures and videos correctly

I have been able to import pictures and videos from my iPhone 5 to my Windows 7 Pro computer for the last 2 years.  However, a few months ago, I couldn't get the iPhone to appear on the computer, so I went into Device Manager and Uninstalled the driver, then plugged the phone in again to let it reinstall the driver.  That worked, but now when I try to download again, everything on my computer (browsing on windows, windows import manager, Sony Play Memories) says that there are no files to import.  I can take pictures and videos and when I try again, I get the same message, so it's certainly not true.  If I browse to the files using explorer, I go to Computer >> Apple iPhone  and Internal Storage shows 383 MB free of 14.7 GB.  When I browse further down to Internal Storage >> DCIM, the folder is blank.  I tried the same trick of deleting and reinstalling the drivers with the same results.  I don't know what else to try.

I solved my own problem.  Apparently, you now have to log into (unlock) the phone for it to work.  That was not the case on some earlier version of IOS.

  • How do I import pictures and videos from my iphone4 to my computer and/or itunes?

    how do i import pictures and videos to itunes and/or computer?

    If for photos/videos in the Camera Roll, iTunes has nothing whatsoever to do with importing photos/videos from the Camera Roll.
    I don't believe it is an unreasonable in the least to assume that someone with an iPhone has used a digital camera before and has imported photos from a digital camera at least once with their computer.
    And a little advice - people that answer questions here do so voluntarily. It is not a good idea to tell someone who volunteers their time that they didn't answer the question. You may not understand the answer and if not, say so along with I've never imported photos from a digital camera before and/or describe the problem you are having so maybe someone can help you. It is a good idea when asking for help not to assume that someone can read your mind and knows what "I too have problems with this" means exactly.
    You're welcome.

  • Import pictures and videos

    Hi.
    I noticed that since I deactivated the "Video" app in my Xperia Z1 Compact (running stock Android 5.0.2), the Movie Creator app doesn't include videos in the created videos, and if I try to edit a created one  and replace a photo with a video I get a failure message. That's apparently because those two apps are connected and the Movie Creator uses the Video app to import videos. That didn't happen in the past.
    Could you please make the Movie Creator import videos in some other way, so it's not depended on the Video app? It should have its own mechanism of importing photos and videos, like most other apps do.

    Both are Sony's apps which makes sense that Sony wants you to use their apps, but you should contact Sony directly with your suggestion

  • HT201302 Using a windows 8 at question 5 at "right click logo" there is no option of "import pictures and videos" HELP!!!!!!

    I'm using a windows 8 and an Iphone 5 and am trying to download photos from my phone to my computer. I found the link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 from another question but when I get to question 5 where it says "right click logo" it's an unidentified logo that says iphone and even when I right click it there is no option of "import photos and videos". HELP!!!!! been working on this for weeks and cannot acomplish a thing. help please!!!

    Alright, if you go to computer and right click on the iPhone, import is not an option? If you go to Control Panel and go to AutoPlay, can you change the settings for the phone? It should recognize it as a digital camera. Also, if the iPhone has a passcode and is locked when you connect it, you will not be able to import the photos either. If it has a passcode, unlock it, then connect to the computer and see if you can see the choice to import then.

  • HT201302 Trying to download my videos from camera roll onto pc but auto play only says import pictures not import pictures and videos

    Hi trying to download videos from my camera roll to my pc.pictures have all downloaded but not the videos

    Can you see the Canon EOS camera and image files using Windows Explorer? If not disconnect the camera, close all applications' shutdown Windows, and TURN OFF the power to your system and ALL connected devices. Disconnect all phones, iPads, and any other USB devices and restart your system.
    Retry Windows Explorer and see if your camera is showing. If so try LR import again.

  • IPhoto takes long time to import Photos and Videos

    From a software standpoint why iPhoto sometimes takes so long to import Pictures and Videos?
    Example Scenario:
    on the iPhone 5 - iOS 7 there are:
    2851 Photos in Camera Roll
    1000 Photos in Photo Stream
    51 Videos (each videos average of 3 minutes long)
    on the MAC - OS X 10.9
    iPhoto start to import photo, and more or less, after importing almost 500 photos, just get stop at one particular photo and thats it.
    What are the reason?
    Thank you

    Thank you leonie,
    so my question is why a photo became corrupted in the iPhone?
    Step 1
    Take a Photo
    Step 2
    The taken photo goes into Cameral Roll
    What are the reason that became corrupted?
    Thanks

  • How do I save pictures and videos taken on my i-phone to my pc or backup storage device?

    Hello, I am trying to save my pictures and videos that I have taken on my i-phone to my computer or some sort of backup device.  I am afraid in case my i-phone is lost or broken that I will have no permanent record of precious family footage.  What about saving these to a jump drive or disc as well. Thanks for your help.

    You can connect your iPhone to your computer and a Autoplay dialogue box will pop up, select 'import pictures and videos'.  Follow the prompts and this will transfer your pictures and videos to your computer.
    Alternatively, if your iPhone is updated with IOS 5, you can activate iCloud account on your iPhone, turn on 'Photo Stream', then install iCloud control panel onto your computer and sign in with your iCloud account and turn on photo stream.

  • How can i re-import pics and videos from my iPhone after i have deleted them on my PC?

    I imported all of my pictures and videos on to my PC into a folder. I accidently deleted the folder. So when i try to import everything again, it says iPhone has no new pictures or videos to import. How can I import everything again?
    (I imported everything by right-clicking the iphone on 'My Computer' and clicking 'import pictures and videos').

    To import photos on iPhone to computer, you can try these ways:
    1. You can use iTunes to transfer the photos on iPhone to your computer. Install the latest iTunes and connect iPhone to the computer. Then, you'll see your device on the "Computer (disk)" list , click it, you can see all your pictures on the iPad and you can copy it to the PC.
    2. If you have enable iCloud, you can see and copy/transfer the photos you took in the last 30 days on Windows iCloud panel which you have installed on your computer. However, there is an shortcoming that you can not import all photos.
    3. Use a third-party tool.
    Really hope one of them can help you. If you need more details, please let me know.

  • I can no longer import pictures to my ibook (OSX version 10.6.8) using iphoto 09 version 8.1.2 and now get message that file is in an unrecognizable format.  What is wrong?  Same camera as before.

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Insert pictures and video

    Hello,
    How can I insert videocuts into a show I recorded myself? I am in the studio, presenting a show and during the presentation I want to show pictures and video to the audience.
    * I wil first record the show in our studio
    * And then I insert pictures and video on certain places in the recorded show.
    Is this possible in Imovie 8 or in one of the older imovies.
    Or must I use finalcut for this?
    Thanks! Richard - The Netherlands

    Hello, Richard,
    I have not used iMovie 8 much, so don't know about doing this in that version, but you can easily do this in iMovie HD 6.
    I am not sure exactly how you want to do this. It depends on whether you want to place those photos and other video clips OVER the recorded show, so that the audio from the recorded show plays while the photos and videos are displayed, or if you want to have them ADDED in the midst of the recorded show.
    If you just want to insert photos and videos in the midst of your recorded show, first import your recorded show into iMovie6. Put it in the timeline. Move the playhead to the point where you want the first photo, and do a 'split video at playhead' command, drag the photos/videos to the time line there. They will be added between the split video clips. Repeat for all the photos/videos.
    It sounds as if the option you want is 'Paste Over at Playhead' which allows the photos and videos you add to be seen over the recorded show, so that the audio plays continually. In tv and movies this is done when someone is talking about something and then there is a 'cut-away' to a photo or video clip of whatever the person is describing so the audience can visualize what he is saying while he is speaking.
    Here are instructions for doing that from iMovie HD6 Help:
    *Inserting video clips or photos in a passage while maintaining running audio*
    +You can paste a new video clip or photo over an existing clip while retaining the audio from the original clip. The video cuts away to a new picture, but you continue to hear the sound from the original clip.+
    +To replace images in a clip while maintaining running audio:+
    +Choose iMovie HD > Preferences, and then click General.+
    +Select the "Extract audio when using Paste Over at Playhead" checkbox.+
    +Select the video or photo that you want to insert.+
    +Choose Edit > Cut or Copy.+
    +Do one of the following:+
    +To paste the entire video you selected in step 3, position the playhead at the first frame to be replaced. When you paste the clip, it will replace a portion of video equal to its length.+
    +To paste over a specific segment of your movie, select the part of the video clip you want to paste over. (To learn more about selecting part of a video clip, see Related Topics below.)+
    +If the video you're pasting is longer than the selected frame range, the excess video will not be pasted. If the video you're pasting is shorter than the selected frame range, the extra space will be filled with a color clip (or the still image, if you paste a still image).+
    +Choose Advanced > "Paste Over at Playhead."+
    +The audio track of the original video is retained and appears in audio track 1 of the timeline viewer.+
    Post back if this does not address what you are trying to do.
