Iphoto 9.5.1 not loading photos from my SD Card?

iPhoto says "loading" but it has been there forever and will not load my photos. I have 690 photos on the Sd card. Originally I hit import on the 690 photos and every since it has says loading and has been stuck on that.
I have quit IPhoto and reopened it three times. I have rebuilt the Library then quit IPhoto 9.5.1 and still when I go to import the photos it says "loading". What can I do? I really need these photos imported to my iMac? Thanks for your help and/or suggestions.

Sounds like it might need to be reformatted - which you would do with the Camera. However, that will erase the card and you'll lose the photos.
Try bring it to another machine - a Windows one for instance, you might get lucky and be able to access the photos there.

IPhoto 9.2.1 not importing photos from iPhone 4S

When I plug in my 4S, or an alternate 4S, iphoto will recognize that there are photos that need to be imported, however when I click import all, it inicates that it cannot read any of the files, and does not import any of the photos or videos. I have also tried importing one photo at a time and got the same results. Any sugestions?

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?

New iPhoto not loading photos from CD or time machine

Our hard drive recently failed and we got it replaced. When they replaced our HD, they upgraded us to Mac OS X 10.6.8 and iPhoto 9.1.5. We hooked time machine up to restore our old photos and they initially showed up on iPhoto, then most disappeared (thumbnails are now black. Photo names are still there, but pictures are gone. When I click on the black thumbnail, I get an exclamation point). SOME of the pictures loaded, at least half are gone. I've tried the tricks of command-option clicking iPhoto and clicking all the boxes and downloading iphoto manager. Nothing. Then we tried importing an old CD of pictures and they aren't showing up at all (it says "no photos").
So... What's going on? I want my pictures back!

HT1338 iMovie will not load photos from iPhoto, how do I fix this?

I am using a brand new MacBook Pro, have read other comments about this problem but found no solution. What's up with this issue? I want to make a slide show using iMovie, like I've done dozens of times with my older macs, am having NO luck with this new iMovie. Paid a lot of $ for this new computer, what's the deal Apple?

I noticed you have a viewer plugin from that site. Could you check whether it is set to "click to play"? If so, you could try having it always activated.
Open the Add-ons page using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins. Look for "Musicnotes Viewer" and if it says "Ask to Activate", change it to "Always Activate". Then return to the site and reload to see whether it works.
While you are on the Add-ons page... I noticed you have an extension named Media Watch that many users consider unwanted software or even a virus.
On the Add-ons page, if you click Extensions in the left column, can you find Media Watch remove it?
If the Remove button is missing, you probably need to remove some software using the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program. Click the "Installed on" column heading to bring the most recent additions to the top. This typically will reveal that a bundle of (undisclosed) programs was installed along with something you actually wanted. Remove as much as possible here.
Then you can supplement your regular security software with the scanners/cleaners listed in this support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].

How can i load photos from iphoto onto camera

Hi,
for some reason I can not load photos from iphoto back onto my canon camera anymore...
situation: canon camera is connected to mac book pro. I have imported photos from the camera into iPhotos.
unfortunately deleted them from the camera.
now i would like to transfer them back onto the camera.
It does not let me drag and drop the photos from iphoto to the camera.
and I can not find a way to more the photos back.
can anyone help?
Thanks.

The folks in the iPhoto community forum wait for questions like this. In any case from iPhoto select your photos. Then select export. Navigate to your USB sick and that's it.

Iphoto 6 will not load photos

Everytime i open Iphoto it says "loading photos" but never does. i hev to close it down. Next time I oen it the same thing happend. This started after I downloaded some photos from a media card through my HP1600 printer. Part way through the download I realised i was not in my account and changed to my own. Then it went wrong. I have deeted all the photos that were downloaded but cannot open the library. Any ideas please.

stambridge:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try download and run BatChmod on both the iPhoto Library folder and the folder with the new photos from the HP 1600 with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to each folder or just drag them one at a time into that field and click on apply.

IPhoto doesn´t work after trying to load photos from iphone with newer version. Help!!!!!

First, I do not have a recent back-up of my iPhoto Library. (But, I learned my lesson for next time). When I tried to load photos from my super duper up to date software I-phone to my outdated iPhoto on the computer (only version 8.1.2), a message came that I cannot open your Mediateck with this version of iPhoto,. You have changed your mediathek with a newer version of iPhoto.
(in German, because I am writing from Germany "Sie konnen ihre aktuelle Mediathek nicht mit dieser Version von iPhoto öffnen. Sie haben Ihre Mediathek mit einer neueren version von iPhoto geändert").
How can I save all the baby pictures of my 3 kids??Help

Did you update iPhoto?
If not:
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new iPhoto 08 library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

IMovie '09 Won't Load Photos from iPhoto

I recently upgraded to iLife '09 at work and at home. My iMac at wok does fine with the up grade but iMovie on my intel based MacBook Pro won't load photos from iPhoto. Anyone else have this problem or can suggest what my problem may be? My software is up to date and other programs are working OK.

Hello, i have also had the same issue. Basically when i click on the photo icon in imovie 09 the library doesn't show,it's just blank but also my itunes library isn't showing up either. The only way i can get photos and music into imovie is by dragging them into imovie but thats not the way the program is meant to work and would also like to fix this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

After loading my photos from my iPhone to my mac iPhotos it prompts me to delete photos from my iPhone. When I agree to this my photos never delete. my iPhone is out of storage due to I can't delete photos. What am I doing wrong?

After loading my photos from my iphone to my mac iphoto it gives me the option to delete photos on my phone. When I click to delete the photos do not delete from my phone. I am out of storage due to I can not delete photos from my iphone.

That problem is probably with your iPhone and not with iPhoto.
But try to download again to your Mac, this time use "Image Capture" instead of iPhoto.
Launch Image Capture from your applications folder.
Connect your phone to a USB port.
Select all the photos in your camera roll to be deleted.
Then press the "delete" key.
If there are photos on your iPhone that have been synced with iTunes, they can only be deleted by syncing again and deselecting the albums:

If even Image Capture cannot wipe your Camera Roll, you need to trouble shoot your iPhone. Try the three R's, reset, restart, restore. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281

IPhoto[v 9.5.1] on MBP won't load photos from iPod touch Gen4 32GB, even if let run overnight

iPhoto [v 9.5.1] on MBP won't load photos from iPod touch Gen4 32GB, even if let run overnight and don't let machine go to sleep.
MBP has 8GB Ram and separate video card using 2.3 Ghx i7 processor ... so i don't think it is a hardware issue.

Hello A_MadDog,
It sounds like you are not able to import photos from your Camera Roll on your iPod touch. I recommend following the steps in the article below for the issue you described:

Did you look in iTunes?

IPhoto says it won't import photos from my Fujifilm Finepix S1000 camera because it's the wrong format (jpeg). It always has before... but I upgraded to Lion then went back to Snow Leopard and now it's not working. Suggestions? Thanks!

Recently I downloaded photos from an sd card. When the download was complete all photos were loaded in a random fashion completely out of order.This is the first time it has ever happened this way. downloaded same card to iPhoto and all photos were in order. Help needed. Am working on a job that needs immediate attention and HDR images out of order are impossible to deal with.

Thanks for your help. The out of numerical order comes before the actual import begins. It happens when first uploaded to Lightroom and prior selection of of photos to imported to the catalog.

Iphoto 9.5 won't import photos from iPhoto 7.5. Library will not update using the iPhoto library upgraded application.

iphoto 9.5 won't import photos from iPhoto 7.5. Library will not update using the iPhoto library upgrader application. Repeatedly says it can't locate photos even when told to cancel. I think the photos in question are in Nikon RAW format.

iPhoto 9.5 immediately tries to "upgrade" my library using the upgrader.
iPhoto 9.5 asks you to run the upgrader to prepare the library for 9.5. It then will update the library to its format.
You need to do the following:
1 - go to your Applications/Utilities folder and double click on the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application.
2 - select Choose Library, navigate to your iPhoto library, select it and let the upgrader do its thing.
3 - launch iPhoto 9.5 to open and finish the conversion of the library.

Why did Photo in iOS 7 start loading duplicates from my SD card even when instructed not to load them?

On a long trip, I would download the photos from my camera to my iPad in Photo. I have done this for years. In the process, I would tell Photo not to load the duplicates. Since I updated to iOS 7, Photo is now loading duplicates from my SD card ignoring the instructions not to do so. When I took my iPad to the Genius Bar, I was told that this is an iOS 7 problem they have reported. I can find no way to report it through Apple Support. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there any way to stop Photo from downloading the duplicates?

Hi canondude!
Thanks for posting.
Ho are you bringing the video clips over to your computer? Are you connecting the camera or are you using a card reader? What program are you using to import the video clips?
