IPhoto not detecting iPhone and iPad

I'm using iPhoto 08, ver 7.1.5 (378).
I've been using it with my iPhone 3GS and iPad with no problems until last night.
But starting from this morning, iPhoto would NOT detect any of my devices.
I've tried some tips from the forum -- restarting the system, deleting images from emails in my iPhone, taking picture with my iPhone and reconnect to my Mac. Noe of them worked.
Any help?

Yes you are right, I found image capture app on applications folder, looks like it is an alternative to iPhoto app, however when I connect my devices and open the app I am getting a message "no camera or scanner is connected" so look like whatever is causing the problem for iPhoto also blocks image capture, that app also does not recognise my devices, is there any other way I can transfer photos?? Or what might be the problem for this iPhoto \ image capture issue??
By the way I just realised even iTunes is not detecting my devices now, so I will try a restart after I finish downloading some stuff, meanwhile please let me know if any solutions.
P.S: Is APPLE paying you guys to bombard negative comments?? Almost like once negative comments are detected you guys jump on it, I understand the fanaticism however I am facing a problem that clearly prevents me to upload my photos to my MAC and I am complaing abut it, i believe i have the right to do that as a consumer.
Not sure why you guys take the neative comments and complaints so serious.

I'm aware that all printers are not airprint enabled but since i can print form my imac that should not be a problem right?

Hey Fredrik68,
I would double check and see if you meet all the requirements for AirPrint here, including the printer model:

ITunes for Windows 8 does not see iPhone and iPad

In my HP Envy notebook, iTunes (last version) does not connect to iPhone and iPad. Note that the PC connects to both. Only iTunes does not. I think this version of iTunes for windows does not use the correct USB driver.

Why can I not hide iPhone and iPad app purchases made from my iTunes account using the Mac version of iTunes?

I have applications on my iPhone and iPad that I don't want to show up on the family sharing menu (i.e., kid inappropriate stuff). When I follow the instructions from apple support for hiding apps, my iPhone and iPad apps cannot be "X-ed" out by hovering the mouse over the app icons in iTunes. Why can't I hide these?

You should be able to hide them, it's just that the 'x' is invisible (I assume that it's a bug with the current version of iTunes) - click on the app's top left corner where the 'x' should be, and it should become hidden.

Iphoto not detecting iphone

I plug in my iPhone 4S to iphoto, but it does not detect my phone. Well, it detects it as a camera, but then no photos show up to import.

And do you have unimported photos in the camera roll on it?

IPhoto sync to iPhone and iPad. Memory difference?

I'm not sure where to post this question... I have an iPhone 4S and an iPad 2. I sync both to iPhoto. Both show the same number of photos. Why do the photos take twice as much memory on the iPhone as the iPad? Note this is after sync and again, both devices show the same number of photos and both have the same photos and videos.
Thanks

Make sure you devices are signed into the correct iCloud account in Settings>iCloud, then check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar (in the Calendars section). Here be sure you have selected the calendar under your iCloud account ID as your default. If everything is correct and it still won't sync your calendar, go through the additional troubleshooting steps in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3999.

IPhoto not detecting iPhone 3gs

1. iPhoto isn't detecting my iPhone so i can't get my photos off the phone onto my computer.
2. read previous discussion about deleting pictures off iPhone from emails or web that were saved to it. did that and still no love.
3. in previous discussion it told me to open image capture and tell prefs to look for iPhoto when plugging in a camera.
(a.) there is not a "prefs" drop down on image capture shrug
I know this is probably something really simple. would be quite appreciative of the help.
thanks for listening.

You're welcome.
With the OS X and iPhoto version you are using, the option you mentioned is available at iPhoto > Preferences under the General tab. Under the General tab at "Connecting Camera Opens" is where you can select No Application, iPhoto, or Image Capture. This is for automatically launching your selected application only when a digital camera is connected. This does not automatically import photos - this launches the selected application only if not launched when a digital camera is connected. This has nothing to do with your iPhone not being detected as a digital camera by iPhoto.
3,273 photos? Wow, and you've never imported any of these photos by iPhoto - this is the first time you've tried doing this? That is a lot of photos. As with any other digital camera, photos captured by your iPhone should be imported on a regular basis for a number of reasons - with this being one of them. This also increases your iPhone's backup time with iTunes, which is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
Photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup. There are some 3rd party paid utilities that provide for extracting these photos from your iPhone's backup on your Mac. I'll check for some and report back unless someone here beats me to it.
If you are able to extract these photos from your iPhone's backup on your computer, I suggest restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup and in the future import photos captured by your iPhone on a regular basis - once a week at least followed by deleting the photos from your iPhone's Camera Roll after the import process is complete. iPhoto includes this option after importing photos from any digital camera.
If I want any of the photos I recently imported followed by being deleted from the Camera Roll available on my iPhone for viewing, I add the photos to a new iPhoto album in iPhoto. I select this album under the Photos tab for my iPhone sync preferences followed by a sync.

Icloud sync only works between mac pro and windows outlook, not with iphone and ipad anymore

Hi
Can anyone help me with my problem?
I do have icloud installed on my MacBookPro, on my Windows Outlook computer, on my iPad 2 and on the iPhone 4S.
Now until yesterday everything synchronized perfectly well.
Then I created some groups on my MacBookPro address book and since then (I believe that was when it started) icloud no longer synchs from and to the ipad and the iphone. It still works between the Mac and Windows Outlook.
On the iPad/iPhone I have tried everything but it still won't do. I have even reset the whole iPad and obviously lost all data and tried again. I all sometimes get is a few contacts back into the address book on the ipad. But only a limited number, not all.
Also, to delete the icloud account on the ipad/iphone is sometimes not possible. It just hangs and I can see the message "Deleting..." for ever.
Anyone an idea?
Thanks in advance!

One more comment. Wired connection seem to be stable neither. I have ping running to the Windows computer and after a couple of minutes, it gets broken.
However if I have both WiFi and cable connection to the home router and disconnect from cable (after ping is broken), I get the network to the Windows comptuer back. Nothing serious on the network change, I just get 192.168.1.x instead of 192.168.1.y as IP).
During this network switch I do nothing with the Windows computer.
This is not valid if I want to connect to the Windows computer via Microsoft sharing (smb://192.168.1.x), then it immediately breaks the connection. Can't get it back until Windows is restarted.

Help. I can not get iPad and iPhone calendar to sync

Please also check, if the appointments you already have entered on one device are stored in a iCloud calendar or only local or in another account. Therefor just open the calendar app, then open an existing appointment, click on "Calendar" and then check, if it is really an iCloud calendar where the appointment is stored.

Why am I losing notes from iPhone and ipad can I retrieve

Why am I losing notes from ipad and iPhone. Can I retrieve them?

You can restore from iTune or iCloud backup if you have one.

Since the most recent iPhoto upgrade, I can't sync photos from iPhoto to my iPhone or iPad. This is so frustrating! whereas previously all I had to do was put 'sync' as a keyword,

Why can I no longer export photos from iPhoto to my iPhone and iPad? Previously, when I used 'sync' as a keyword for a photo, it automatically exported to the other devices when they were synced with computer. This no longer happens so I don't know how to get photos from the computer onto my iPhone & iPad. Can anyone help as it's most annoying. So often updating software has really negative side-effects such as this.

I add the keyword 'sync' to any photos I want added to the iPhone/iPad.
Then, during the regular process of syncing the iPhone/iPad with my computer (mac), the photos with that keyword would be copied onto the iPhone, iPad.
I've been doing it this way ever since I was shown how to; ie after I got my iPhone 2 years ago. And every time the process worked - until the last few weeks. Suddenly it doesn't do it any more.
I believe I have upgraded software (either iTunes or iPhoto or both) during this period. I try to keep my software updated but have noticed previously that the new version often is disappointing.
I've not tended to use Smart albums much.

Syncing edited photos to iPhone and iPad

I use the "sync all photos albums events and faces" to sync photos from iPhoto to my iPhone and iPad.
However if I subsequently edit any photos they are not transferred across to my devices when I next sync.
I understand a workaround for this issue is to delete the cache and resync, however with the amount of photos I have, this would be too time consuming.
Edited photographs seem to be updated on my Apple TV (1st generation) and MobileMe galleries, is there any reason why they aren't automatically transferred across to my iPhone/iPad?
Thanks in advance for you help

That may be a better question for the iPad/iPhone forums - or maybe even iTunes since it is doing the sync
