IPhoto does not recognize recent imports

Some weeks ago iPhoto started to not to display last downloads correctly.
Yesterday I imported all (iPhone 4 ios7) images and today I have all of them to import.
It seems it is stucked at certain date and it always "lose" imports from that date
What's going on?
Thank you

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 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.

IPhoto does not recognize formate of photos after lost os x 10.9 update

I have a macbook pro after last update iphoto does not recognize the formate of a lot of my pictures.

What version of iPhoto and system are you running? What do you mean by :does not recognize the formate of a lot of my pictures."? Are these photos already imported into the library? What do you see when you open iPhoto?

I am trying to copy photos from an iPad to a Mac Air, but iPhoto does not recognize them. Please forgive the ignorance, but we have just started moving to apple products and I know nothing about them. Do you have to use PhotoStream to do this?

How did the photos that you want to copy off get on the iPad ? To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a Mac you should be able to use iPhoto, Aperture or Image Capture
To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

Importer does not recognize already imported photos

Hello,
I have a really annoying problem with Aperture 3.0.3. The importer does not recognize already imported photos and wants to import them again and again. This is true for photos from my iPhoneand also for photos from my Nikon. If I enable "Do not import duplicates" then some photos vanish from the importer, when I the iPhone view is open. In the Nikon view not even one photo is recognized as already imported.
Also very strange is that when I have the iPhone (iOS 4.1 installed) attached to the Mac, Aperture opens the importer automatically and shows all photos correctly - but strangely, both iMac CPUs are at 100% until I click either "Cancel" or "Start import" or I disconnect the iPhone.
I tried the following without success:
- Correct permissions on media library
- Repair media library
- Rebuild media library
Imports from my iPhone last very long and seem to hang most of the time. I have to kill Aperture to make it work again all the time.
To me, it looks like there is something really messed up at the base of this program.
I have about 20000 files in my library - face recognition is not turned off - most of the preferences are at their default, I think. Did not play around very much.
Does anybody know what to do? I don't want to lose all my Projects (sorted all pictures into their own projects). But I want to work with Aperture again. When its working, it's a great tool.
Regards
Alex

I've had the same problem. For some things, like videos and photos on my iPhone, I've found as many as 5 copies of the images despite keeping the 'do not import duplicates' checked.
I've also found a bug with the import function, where if I'm importing from folders on my hard drive, sometimes it finds no images at all (even if they don't exist in my library). Simply cancelling and going back into import and the miraculously appear (including images that have already been imported despite having 'do not import duplicates' checked.).
I've been going through my library deleting all the duplicates, and managed to free about 10GB of space.
Having moved from Lightroom the 'technical side' of Aperture seems very antiquated. For example, if I remove a duplicate video - then try clicking on that video in Aperture, it literally takes about 10-15 minutes of spinning disc before Aperture becomes responsive. It also often hangs up on the 'updating previews' when I quit.
Such a shame aperture is so bad. I really like the functionality - eg. having my photos automatically sync with my Apple TV, but it seems to be absolutely full of bugs.

IPhoto does not show last import

iPhoto does not show last import. When I try to re-import photos from a desktop file it says the photos are already in the iphoto library and cannot be imported. What do I do? I've already re-installed iPhoto 09 and run updates.

Are you saying that the last import is not showing in the last import section of the source pane or is not in the Events in the library window? If you do not see the event then your camera has the wrong date - look in the last import album and find the date and then go to that date in the events - it will be there - if you want you can then slelect the photos and use the adjust time and date command to fix it - check change original files

Iphoto does not recognize email/password combo

I'm trying to email some pictures but it keeps saying that iphoto does not recognize my email or password combinations for both mine and my husbands accounts.

Have you got iPhoto as the email client or Mail? If iPhoto go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, deelete the email account, reboot, relaunch iPhoto and add the account back. Then try again.
Or, set Mail as the email client in iPhoto's General preference pane. It's a better way to go, IMO, as you have better access to Contacts, get a sent copy automatically and also have photo layouts to use in the Stationary/Photos section of Mail.

IPhoto does not recognize old backup of library

I have a iPhoto library backup disk (dvd) that dates back to 2006. Iphoto does not recognize the photos and they will not open. How do I get to see the photo's?
Iphoto 11
iMac 2.4 ghz intel core duo
OS 10.6.8

The only thing I can think of is that the Library is corrupted in some way. Unusual that the main computer can access it - though it rebuilds the thumbs each time, whiile the other two cannot. I suspect that the permissions warnings are bogus.
Neither of the other machines would be able to read that library without updating it, and in fact, once the 9.5.1 version updates it, the 9.4.3 version wouldn't be able to read it either.
But either way, each library should ask to upgrade it upon opening, that the don't suggests that the Library is damaged.
You need to decide what version you want to want to view this library with - as you can't view it with either of the other two once you upgrade it. Then from that machine rebuild the Library with iPhoto Library Manager.
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.

IPhoto does not recognize iPhone4/Does not download Camera Roll

I have tried to download my photos and videos from Camera Roll on my iPhone 4 (iOS 5.1.1) into my iPhoto '09. It used to do it automatically a year ago, but now iPhoto does not respond when I plug in my phone through the USB connector cable.
1. I have tried this: http://leimobile.com/faq-how-to-fix-ios-5-photo-sync-issues/ by deleting the iPod Photo Cache, but iPhoto still does not respond when I plug my iPhone into my Mac.
2. I have tried Image Capture, but it did not recognize my iPhone 4 either. It does "download" the JPG files but the program stalls as it waits to detect a camera device.
3. I have turned off Photo Stream in my iPhone Settings menu.
Please help, because I need to have many photos from Camera Roll onto my computer for work... I am sending the important ones one by one through email!

Restarted my computer... iPhoto now recognizes my iPhone.

IPhoto does not recognize Tiff format

I am trying to import my photos in TIFF ext however I get a response from iPhoto that it does not recognize the format.
What I am doing wrong?
thank You!

Did this test in the begging, and it doies not give me the option to create a new library.... : /
Then you're not holding the correct key or not holding it long enough while launching.
But I could import all to Aperture and then from iPhoto import the pictures......however when in the iPhoto library they have been "converted" to JPEG file and lost all quality...the same picture in Aperture (TIFF) has 36MB while in the iPhoto after I imported 684KB!!
You need to understand how to use Aperture. You're getting the Aperture Previews, not the original files.

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.

Iphoto does not recognize jpg

After my latest upgrade, iphoto says it does not recognize jpg format. Help!

Search the forum. There are lots of posts from Kodak owners with a similar issue. Workaround: use a USB Card Reader, Reformat the card with your Camera.

Iphoto does not recognize .jpg format

Any advice on why iphoto will not recognize a format that it has in the past

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?
Post back with the result.

IPhoto does not recognize iPhone

I need help with iPhoto and my albums on my iPhone 4. iPhoto does not seem to recognzie the iPhone.

Just solved this. I had to turn on PhotoStream. I turned it on, in both iPhotos and my iPhone 4. Now my iPhotos recognized my iPhone 4.

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.
