IPhoto 08 Will not recognize a Canon EOS 450D

I am trying to download some photos from a friends camera to my Macbook and it will not recognize the camera, can you please help me. Mac OS10.5.7 with plenty of RAM. The camera was purchased in England and I am in Canada.
Thanks.
Liz

Since there is no detail I'll guess - if the photo is in sRAW mode Canon has not released the specs for sRAW and it can only be processed by their software
If the camera is in normal RAW or JPEG then post back

My iphoto will not recognize my iPhone 5c

My iphoto will not recognize my iPhone 5c, therefore I can't import any of my pictures.
I read that it could be the cable do I went out and bought another but it is still not working?
Neither itunes nor iphoto open when I plug in my phone, however when I open up itunes manually, it recognizes it. Any suggestions?

Launch iTunes, then connect your iPhone to USB. The iPhone will prompt you, if you trust this computer. Confirm that you trust it.
Then try again to import to Photos.
If "trust" was not the reason, try a different USB port on your computer.

Just started. iphoto will not recognize iphone as a camera

frustrated here. All of a sudden, IPhoto will not recognize my iPhone as a camera and therefore will not upload photos taken on the phone. No settings have been changed. Not sure what to do here.

Got any photos in your camera roll that were emailed to you or saved through safari? If so, try deleting them or emailing them to yourself & then deleting them from your camera roll. See if iphoto will then see your phone.

My new MAC 10.10.3 will not recognize my Canon cameras or my Kodak camera. Help from the Geek Squad was useless.

My iMAC 10.10.3 Yosemite will not recognize any of my two Canon cameras or my Kodak camera. What's the solution?

Can you temporarily connect some other USB device to verify that your PowerBook's USB ports are in working order? Do you have another computer to which your camera can be connected to verify that a working USB connection is being made from the camera?
If we can somehow eliminate a hardware issue, then you can focus on software. Have you tried creating a new admin user account? If the new account recognizes your camera, it would narrow the problem down to something within your regular user account.

HT201071 Help! Mavericks will not recognize my Canon 8400 scanner--is there a workaround?

Help!
My Imac 10.9.1 will not recognize my canon8400 scanner! Is there a work-around? Canon no loger provides software or drivers for Mavericks.

I was looking here to post my problem with the 7350 and lo and behold, someone else has the same problem. I have gone through a significant amount more trouble shooting than the original poster with no positive results. The printer worked fine until I upgraded from OS 10.3 to 10.4. Since then I have been unable to print at all. I tried to install the driver via the disk. I tried to download the updated drivers from the website. I have spoken with HP tech support ad nauseum about the issue without any luck. I downloaded the latest GIMP-print version, the driver was not in there. I downloaded GhostPrint and Foomatic, the driver finally appeared in a list as an available selection, but the printer came up with GenericClass:waiting for device. I have used the HP util to install. I have installed via the Printer Browser (printer is connected via USB, direct, no hub). I have gone into the advanced feature of the Printer Setup Utility and add the printer this way with the same results. The printer works on the PC machine that sits on the adjacent desk. I am at wits end! I am this close from going "Office Space" on this machine and buying something else!
Any other thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Photoshop will not recognize my Canon D6 raw photos. Have run update,still not working.Suggestions

Photoshop CS5 will not open my Canon D6 images in raw. Tried both ps and bridge. Have run updates. Have installed Canon utility files. Still does not recognize the format. Any suggestions?

Hi,
Photoshop cs5 won't update to the camera raw plugin required (7.3) for the canon 6d camera raw files.
Other than upgrading to photoshop cs6 you could use the free 7.3 DNG Converter to convert your files to dng copies which cs5 should then open.
Or look at Lightroom which is cheaper than an upgrade to cs6.

TS3988 I have no trouble with email but IPhoto will not recognize my server when I try to send a photo to a friend. Anyone else have this probelm ...a solution??? N

I can email but IPhoto does not recognize my server to enable me to send email photos. Any advice? N

I've been having this problem too, but here's the catch: originally it was only with my dad, and only sometimes. Now it's dad and husband, every time! Pix go through, via imessage, to everyone else, and they go through to dad/husband if I "send as text" after it fails.
And the other annoying thing- the blue bar will run all the way, and it will say "delivered". So I close out of imessage. When I reopen it again, the "delivered" has changed to "not delivered" with the red exclamation point. I just googled "imessage not sending photos" and founds TONS of people with the same problem, but no solutions. (I have rebooted phone, reset network settings, with no luck. I even had to backup/delete/restore my whole phone the other day for a different reason, and hoped that would fix it, but now it won't send to my dad OR my husband (who is on not just the same carrier, but the same family plan as me)

CS4 will not recognize my Canon HV20

CS4 will not recognize my HV20.   CS3 does.   Am I doing something wrong?

Great analogy!!
I have CS4 installed as a trial, with Cineform HD 4.1. Both have current updates.
The HV20 is recognized on CS3, and imports into CS3 without a problem.
The cineform intermediate file clips are not redlined in the timeline/sequence in CS3, but they are in CS4
after using HDLink from Cineform to capture the footage.
HDLink recognizes the camera.
CS3 recognizes the camera.
Project settings are 1920x1080 cineform HD
No matter what settings I use the camera is not recognized.
Firewire cable is good...works in CS3.
Also, Cineform PanZoom effect causes CS4 to crash, other cineform effects
work ok.
Exporting the project using media encoder in CS4 also ends in errors and
crashes with all different types of export settings.
Equipment:
     Core2/quad Q6600
     D974xbx2kr Intel board
     8 g memory
     Separate scratch disc raid 0 array
     Windows 7 64bit
     EVGA 8800GTS
Is Cineform not installed correctly? CS4 project settings menu has Cineform options listed, so its there. All of the Cineform effects are
there. I have not tried all of them, but Pan and Zoom definitely causes a crash, whereas cineform color effects work, cineform 32 bit dissolve
works...
Cineform support says its an Adobe problem......
I appreciate your help.

My Mac and/or iPhoto will not recognize my camera.

So I shot pics in RAW yesterday and when I hook my camera it is not recognized. This happened the other day also when I shot in RAW. What would be the problem?

Did you apply the Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 2.2? If so the following may help:
"Source:http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8142169#8142169
Page Title: Apple - Support - Discussions - Can't import Canon RAW's (400D) to ...
Date: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 7:26:47 PM
This might work (from Clem who figured it out):
Delete the file: System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle then (re)install the previous version.
Get the previous version here:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawcompatibilityupdate21.htm l
Restart your computer. "
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. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Mac will not work with Canon EOS cameras

My imac OS X 10.6 is not working well with my Canon EOS 5d Mark II camera on the tethered mode. The camera works well with other Mac computers, and I have spent hours with Canon tech help. It now seems that the issue may be with the computer. The EOS Utility is working, everything has been updated, all Canon checkpoints look good, but when I use the camera, the image does not transfer. And then everything gets locked into a loop and I have to crash the camera and force quit the program. Is there something in the computer that may be blocking the transfers? any ideas where to look? Canon has done everything on the camera side, but I don't know where to begin with the computer.

OH, ok. So the issue is with transferring the image from the camera to the computer. Since you said you have done everything possible with canon, the camera's firmware is completely up to date, you have the correct software installed. Since you say no cameras work with this computer I am inclined to say the problem is from the computer, which is why the problem exists. I'd do an apple hardware test and see if anything turns up. Clean install of the canon software would also be a good idea.

IMAC, iMovie, iPhoto will not recognize iPhone, won't charge either

Hello All:
I just took some video with my iPhoto 3GS, and connected my iPhone to my iMac only to find that:
iPhone is not recognized by either iTunes, iPhoto or iMovie and what's more it won't charge. That is, my iMAC can't detect iPhone as a connected device. I went to the Apple support page and ran through all of the troubleshooting steps (except clean uninstall and reinstall of iTunes.)
As a control, I connected iPhone to my MacBook and all fine: it charges, iTunes recognizes it as a connected device, as do iPhoto and iMovie.
This is a new thing, as when I got the iPhone a month or so ago, I used my iMac to initialize it.
All software up to date, all USB ports on iMAC work, cable is fine.
The ONLY new software I have loaded since I last used iPhone and iMAC together is Snapz Pro X (trial), so I did a thorough (and I mean thorough) uninstall of that...no change.
I live in Spain, so my closest Genius Bar is London, and I'm not flying up with a 24"iMAC under my arm!
Any help?
Steve

Isn't it always the last place you look for something is where you'll find it?
Last night when I made the post I was just too tired to delete iTunes and go through the Libraries to scrub out the files.
This morning, with a Cappuccino I did it.
Reloaded a fresh copy of iTunes...all better now.
Perhaps Apple support on this topic should change "on rare occasions you will need to reinstall iTunes" to "you will need to reinstall".
Anyway, better now.
BTW: the reason all this happened is because I wanted to transfer iPhone videos to my Mac to work on them in iMovie. iMovie won't recognise the iPhone, but, Image Capture does!! Just offloaded the 10 vids from iPhone in .mov format. I'm good to go.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

IPhoto will not recognize iPad mini

I have an iPad mini running iOS 6.1.3. I need to move pictures from that iPad to an iMac running OSx 10.9.1 and iPhoto 9.5.1. iPhoto on the iMac is not recognizing the iPad. iTunes does recognize it though. I have tried repairing permissions, as well as restarting both the iMac and the iPad. The iPad does have photo stream turned on as well as shared photo streams. I can not turn these options off or I will lose all my picture. Is there another way to get the photos off of the iPad? or Is there another way that I can get iPhoto to recognize the iPad?

Hello RedHots,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Unable to import photos to computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3195
Verify that there is a photo available to be imported:Save a screenshot by pressing the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time (the screen should flash briefly). Manually open your photo-management software to determine if this software can recognize the device and import photos.
Try using the photo-management software built in to your computer's operating system:
Mac OS X: Open Image Capture (located in the Applications folder).
Check for software updates to your photo-management software.
Verify that iTunes and your iOS software are up to date. Download and install any updates that are available.
Check for and install any available operating system updates. (On Mac OS X, select Software Update from the Apple Menu. On a PC, run the Windows Update application.)
Try using a different computer to import your photos.
Email photos to yourself if you wish to keep them. Then, delete them from your device and reconnect the device to your computer.
Note: If you have a large number of these photos on your device, you may delete them from your device a few at a time and reconnect to the computer until the device is recognized.
Best of luck,
Mario

Iphoto will not recognize and import photos from camera.

Have a Kodak camera and never had any problems importing pictures from it directly to Iphoto until I upgraded My Imac to 10.6.8 Am using Iphoto 09 version 8.1.2. This is becoming quite a problem after searching for answers and seeing all the posts all over the place. I think it must be the Mac upgrade. Can't be the camera. Thanks for any help. I can get pics to Iphot but what a hassle.

While some issues have been reported with some Kodak camera's a more likely problem is the format of the memory card - get your photos off and reformat the card using the camera's format command you can also try renewing the iPhoto preference file -
A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

IPhoto will not recognize itunes playlists

I have had this problem for a couple months now where iphoto slideshows and idvd, and imovie cannot find any of the itunes music playlists and the pop-up for slideshows just says "open itunes 6 or higher to populate list" but never does.
I recently upgraded to ilife 08 hoping that that would solve the issue but its still there. After reading some posts online i tried rebuilding my itunes library xml file many times, opened the apps in the correct order, repaired permissions deleted, threw away preference plist files, and even threw away and reinstalled several of the apps. None of them seemed to solve the issue. Anyone have any ideas to get the iapps to see itunes playlists again?? Please help

No, this is a purely diagnostic step. It tells us that both iTunes and iPhoto are okay, there's no need to re-install them and that the issue is somewhere in your main user account.
When the apps interact, iPhoto reads the iTunes xml file, and the problem is in there somewhere, so I would also be posting over there.
All my comments about the iTunes xml file are based on what I've learned about the iPhoto one. They may not necessarily apply.
Where is your iTunes Library? On your start up drive? On an external? If an external, what format is it?
Do you have any non-ascii characters in your mp3 metadata or tags (essentially, anything not a-z or 0-9)
Regards
TD

IPhoto Does Not Recognize File

No search. I have a file that iPhoto will not recognize. I made a jpeg and tiff, and it will open in Preview and Photoshop, but not iPhoto. Says it doesn't exist, or is corrupt. Neither is true. Any help is appreciated.

Claude
Where is the file? Have you put it into the iPhoto Library Folder? iPhoto will not import pics from there - a sensible precaution against duplication.

TD
