IPhoto on iMac doesn't import all photos from my iPad

My iPad iPhoto contains approximately 4,500 photos. When I connect with a cable to my iMac, and attempt to import my photos from the iPad to the iMac, it displays that "All 165 photos have been imported." How do I get the other ~ 4,300 photos onto the iMac?
Thnks for any help!

to import they I believe must be in the camera roll
Try the iPad forum - maybe someone there has a suggestion

Iphoto 09' will no longer import the photos from my ipad

Hi,
I have iphoto 09' and it will no longer import photos from my ipad. The ipad is 2nd gen and run ios 7 (it is updated as of Dec. 13'). It says it does not support jpg. files, though it always has before. I have tried using image capture as well as preview, neither works. Image capture and preview say something about an image capture error -9129 or something. I have also tried to bypass completely by copying and drag/dropping onto a USB key and into a desktop folder. Neither of these work either. I have aslo tried using a new library in iphoto and it doesn't work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks and cheers, Dori

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
Happy New Year

The iPad and related software is designed to sync with only one computer. I suggest transferring the photos from one of your iMacs to the other so that all photos are on one Mac. Same for all other files you want to sync over.
To get those AppleWorks files to the iPad you'll have to determine if Pages will open them. If it will then use the file sharing feature of iTunes to copy them to Pages on your pad.
If Pages will not open the AppleWorks files directly you'll have to save them in some format that Pages will read. These include but may not be limited to Pages and Word formats.

Aperture 3.2.1 not importing all photos from card reader

Aperture is not importing all photos from the card reader, i tried importing 720 photos and it was only seeing 480 photos, the card reader stopped reading, aperture was saying "loading assets", still, like if it was still reading the card. and the first time it loaded the pictures the import button was not availllable once not all the photos were not all loaded when the loading assets message stopped.
i had to force quit aperture, ejecting the card from the reader, aperture, on relaunch was still seeing the card as present but it was ejected from the finder , and physicaly on the desk.
i had to go in Apple Acticity monitor to find a process that was still active , someting called mass media and had to stop it.
my work around was manually copying the content of the card on the external hard drive about 9 gig of photos on the external HDD where i keep my aperture photos. copying 9 gig of photos over usb2 took an 50 minutes.
i had jpegs raw and some videos in 720p
i have a MBP 2.26 ghz 13"
a Canon 7D and a Lexar 16 gig compact flash card.

I'm sorry, but I can't understand this paragraph. It seems like the "loading assets" message stopped but not all the photos were showing up in the import window. Were any of the photos duplicates? How long did you wait until you forced quit?
When you say "the first time it loadedthe pictures" you mean you attempted before and got the same result?
It does seem like it is either getting stuck on an image or is taking a long time to read the images off the card since the import button is not available...
When you copied the files to your external drive, you were then able to import to Aperture?
Thanks

Why can I no longer import EDITED photo from my iPad to my Mac using Image Capture from Snapseed app?

Why can I no longer import EDITED photo from my iPad to my Mac using Image Capture? This is farcical and a real problem having to email them individually to myself and is totally inefficient time wise compared to previously using image capture! Why change this when it was working well and very quickly until the latest change. Now I have to move files from downloads into an appropriate folder, after emailing each individual edited image to myself, then I have to open in Photoshop and rename the file. This is ludicrous and takes forever to do!

Thank you! I suppected it would be in the settings somewhere. I' ve much to learn...get myself into trouble pushing buttons I don't really understand.

There has been a change in where Firefox searches for plugins and the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder is no longer scanned for plugins, so Firefox won't find them anymore if they are installed in the plugins folder instead of the "browser\plugins" folder that Firefox now scans.
You can set the plugins.load_appdir_plugins pref to true on the about:config page to make Firefox scan the "<install>/plugins/" directory for plugins like the WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll).
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
You can alternatively move plugins from "<install directory>\plugins\" to "<install directory>\browser\plugins\" (create this folder when missing) to make Firefox find them again.

If I remove all photos from my iPad, does it remove them from the photo stream also?

If I remove all photos from my iPad, does it remove them from the photo stream also?

I don't think so, I think it stores them on the cloud. I just did a test on my own iPad and although I deleted the source image in the Photos app the image remains in the Photo Stream

How can I import all photos from iPhoto and delete all the ones currently on my iPad?

I uploaded all of my iPad's photos to iPhoto('08) thinking it would be easier to delete and organize them. Now that I've done that in iPhoto I need help finding out how to delete all the photos from the iPad and have the iPhoto photos imported from iPhoto back to the iPad.

This workflow may do what you want:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new library.
2 - connect the iPad to your Mac with the new library open.
3 - import all of the photos from the iPad into the new library.
4 - select the option to delete all of the photos from the iPad.
5 - disconnect the iPad and delete the new library.
6 - launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select your original library.
7 - assemble the photos destined for the iPad so you can easily identify them by album or event which you alread have done.
8 - launch iTunes and connect the iPad to your Mac.
9 - go to the photos section for you iPad and synce those particular albums or Events with the iPad.
That will get those specific iPad photos back into the iPad.

IPad doesn't import all photos

My ipad won't import all photos to iphoto. The photos from photostream wonÄt get imported at all. Any ideas what the problem could be?

How did the photos get onto the iPad originally ? Your Mac won't see photos that were originally synced from a computer, if you want to copy those photos back to a computer then you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi-network.
If they are not synced photos then have you tried Image Capture or Aperture to see if they see them ?

LR5 after crashing doesn't import all folders from backed up catalog

Hello,
yesterday my LR crashed and not surer why. Just came to my mac and for some reason LR CC quit itself and when I press to launch it it asked me to import files from the catalogue as if you would start fresh install.
I used last Lightroom backup file, but for some reason it imports all photos apart of one HD and that one has most recent photos on it. Not sure why it is not including that HD. I tried to import images manually, via import photos dialog. Works fine apart that I have lost all edits on them. It just imports them as fresh photos without previews. There are quiet few weddings on it and I really don't want to reedit all this.
When I tried to import photos from different catalogue, nothing happens, it doesn't allow me to add those photos from that one HD. Everything is just greyed out and I can't do any selections.
How to get my edits back? Was thinking to do a clean install and try again my last backed up lrcat file. Just afraid that I would loose all my edits.
Thank you,
Regards,
Armands

+I didn't rename the movie file inside of the iPhoto Library for fear of corrupting the library structure.+
Good thinking! The only way to change the filename in iPhoto is to export the movie file, import it back in, copy over comments, keywords from the old to the new movie, and then delete the old movie.

I'm trying to import "old" photos from my iPad to my MacBook.

I'm trying to import all of the photos from my iPad to my laptop. Although I can clearly see TONS of photos on my iPad, when I plug it into my laptop all that are showing as available for import are two that I already imported and 86 "new" ones.
How can I import other "old" ones?
Not sure how much difference this makes, but my iPad is an older one (first iPad) as is my MacBook, although my MacBook has all of the updates available for it.
Thanks,
Kim

Import all photos from iPhoto library

With Yosemite 10.10.3, I was able to import and upload all my photos from current iPhoto Library 2014 onto iCloud and into Photos App. But I have another iPhoto Library called iPhoto Library 2013 which contains all my 2013 photos. I had to stop that as earlier I had only 128GB SSD on my mac. Now, is there a way to get all those photos into the new Photos App?
I mean, 2014 library alone took me 2 weeks to get it all uploaded. If I switch library, it will start all over again I am afraid and it may eventually never merge into one library.
If answer is no, is there a utility that can open up my older iPhoto Library and pull all my photos out by events ? That way I can extract all the photos to external drive and then import them into my current library.
I even asked at apple store and the so called Genius said "Google it" !
Please let me know if you faced such a problem and if so what you recommend is the best solution!

It may indeed be better to start again with an empty iMac, but i am suggesting this for additional reasons. Do you need another identical iPhoto Library eating up space on your new Mac. Aperture is well able to better organise the library than iPhoto ever was.
Getting started in Aperture in a way you can continue to build on is the hardest thing to get correct at the beginning. When you do, it is a very easy matter to bring in new work in to Aperture from the camera, to build it forward in to the future, or bring in old stuff to organise retrospectively in to the past, and combine both in a way that works for you. Rather than having the trouble that seems to occur frequently here, when folks transfer to Aperture with iPhoto. Don't bring too much iPhoto baggage and forget the term Event.
Aperture is a whole new world and may be a little alien at first, and this frustrates quite a few people when switching. Try out some library structures without images. When it is to your liking then start to populate it with some images in to a nice new and powerful photo library that you know works, and in the way you want, and have got familiar with. The transition should be much easier that way.
This little snippet of information is critical to start with:
Folders hold Projects. ie Folder: 2010. Sub Folders by Season or Month. Project: Vacation, Birthday, Children, etc... Now you want the best children images together in one place, from birth to present. Albums and smart Albums do this, with the aid Powerful search tools.
I hope this helps a little. Allan

IMovie doesn't import all movies from iPhoto - at least one solution

I noticed that iMovie 08 imported my movies from iPhoto, but strangely not all of them. A quick search of the support forums indicated many others were having the same issue.
After comparing file attributes of movies that were importing successfully into iMovie versus movies that didn't show up, I found that a rogue character ("&") was preventing iMovie from importing the file properly.
Renaming the title in iPhoto does not resolve the issue, since the file name (in Finder) remains the same. However, if I make a copy of that file outside of the iPhoto Library, rename it in Finder, then re-import it back into iPhoto, then iMovie will see it. I didn't rename the movie file inside of the iPhoto Library for fear of corrupting the library structure.
I found this to work at least with my .avi files. I still have the same issue as everyone else with iMovie not importing .mpg files that play properly in iPhoto.

IPhoto 6.06 won't import recent photos from iphone

I've been importing photos from my iPhone for over a year, and suddenly now iPhoto 6.06 doesn't seem to see the most recent pictures on the iPhone, and won't import them. iPhoto simply seems to ignore the last 18 photos on the iPhone. If I repeat the process, it imports the same 44 photos again.
Does anybody know what's going on, and how to fix it? I think something like this happened several months ago, and just when I was about to bring it to the Genius Bar, it started working correctly again. I'm not confident that it will fix itself this time, and even if it does, I want to know what's happening.

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?
