IPhoto recognizes my iPhone, but not the photos on it.

The iPhone is a 3gs running iOS 5.1, the iMac is running OS X 10.6.8.
When I connect the iPhone using USB, I open iTunes and it Syncs automatically.  I have to manually open it, and iPhoto too.  When I open iPhoto, it shows me the phone but with 0 pictures, even though there are .5 GB of pictures, including brand new ones, on the iPhone.
I have powered off and back on the iPhone and rebooted the iMac, both did not fix the issue.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Actually, all I had to do was reboot my iphone. It got updated today, so maybe it just neded a fresh start. All of my photos uploaded!

  • My calander and contacts are syncing on ipad and iphone but not my photos.

    my calander and contacts are syncing on ipad and iphone but not my photos.

    Make sure you are entering the contacts and calendar events on your iCloud account.  On your iPad, check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar.  Here make sure you have selected an iCloud calendar as your default, and not something else like On My iPad, Google Calendar, and exchange account calendar, etc.
    Then go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the contacts section) and make sure you have selected iCloud as your default.  (If you don't see this settings, this isn't the problem).
    If your settings for your calendar is correct on your iPad and it still won't sync new calendar events to your phone, go to icloud.com from your computer and enter any missing calendar events on your iPad that are not on your calendar on icloud.com.  Once your iCloud calendar is up to date, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Calendars to Off, choose Delete from My iPad when prompted, then after a minute or so turn Calendars back to On to sync your iCloud calendars back to your phone.  Then enter a new event on your iPad and confirm that it syncs to icloud.com now.
    If your settings for your contacts are correct on your iPad and it still won't sync new contacts to your phone, do the same thing for Contacts (add any missing contacts to icloud.com, turn iCloud syncing off, choose Delete from My iPhone, after a minute turn contact syncing back on, try adding a new contacts to confirm that it syncs).

    Hope you can help.
    I have added a new email address but kept my Id, but I get busy when trying from iPhone to iPad as they are clashing. Like find my iPhone app hence trying to keep them all on one account

    IOS: using facetime http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4319
    using an ipad will use the email address since you can't make a phone call.  see the link.
    Your basically calling/emailing yourself that's why your getting a busy signal.

  • A certain real estate web site loads, but not the photos. IE does it OK.

    www.domain.com.au is a real estate sales page. Most of the site loads but not the photos, just a word 'House' in its place. I tried same site on IE and it all loaded correctly.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.
    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions<br />
    See [[Options window - Content panel]]
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (<i>Site Identification</i> icon) on the left side of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Open the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

    If you haven't tried re syncing the apps using iTunes..
    Connect the iPad to your computer. Select it under Devices left side of the iTunes window. Select Apps from the menu, make sure the boxes next to those apps are selected then click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.

    My ical will synch to my iphone, but not the reverse. Whats up with that?

    An iPod can only sync with one iTunes library. The iPod sees the rebuilt computer as a new iTunes library. To make this computer the syncing computer
    - Transfer iTunes purchases:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    newer copy
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music.

  • Photoshop opens from the finder but not the photo.

    When I click on a photo in the finder, photoshop will open but not the photo. I have to open the photo THROUGH PHOTOSHOP. Not a big deal but terribly annoying and time consuming. Not sure what changed recently to cause this issue. I have jpegs and psds set to open with Photoshop—no problem there, just no photo when Photoshop boots up.

    Select the photo then press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With section select Photoshop from the Default drop down menu. If you wish to apply this to all such files then click on the Change All button.

  • Computer will recognize my iphone but not my wifes

    My wife and I both have Iphone 4's that have been set up on the same computer.  Recently the computer will recognize my phone but not my wifes.  When I plug her's in, I get a double chime and that is it.  Plug mine in, get a single Chime, and Itunes opens and syncs.  I have removed Itunes and the supporting programs, including Bonjour, and reinstalled.  It did not work.  Also I took her phone to the Apple store, it recoginzed on their computer there and they installed IOS 5 for us.  Got home and still nothing.
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks

    Hello: Thanks to all who replied or read my concern. I was able to solve the issue on my own. What I forgot to mention in the original post was that both my wife and I were attempting to use the Free App " Find My iPhone" from the App Store to set up Find My iPhone which I'm not certain if that was the source of the headache.
    At any rate, I simply deleted the app from both iPhones and set up them up in iCloud using the same AppleID account and password which is what it said all along-but I was not getting it. After doing so, both my iPhone and my wife's iPhone are listed in My Devices.
    Best Regards,

  • Syncing of calendar works only from icloud to iphone but not the other way round

    My iphone is suddenly not syncing with icloud anymore. I sync only the Calendar (ical). From the icloud calendar to the iPhone calendar syncing is working but not the other way round. I was at a genius bar but they could not solve the problem. Apple phone support suggested nothing I haven't tried like reboot etc. Any ideas how to solve the problem?

    Go to Settings>Mails, Contacts, Calendars, scroll down to Calendars section and check the Default Calendar. Must be the iCloud calendar. If you don't see this option it means that you have only the iCloud calendar in your iPhone. In that case try to turn off the Calendar from iCloud settings and turn it back on after few seconds.

  • Removing old photos from iPhoto to external HD but not the library

    Hi I have just purchased a new external HD.  I already have one which is used with Time Machine for backing up my mac.  My problem is the mac HD is not that big and my extrenal with time machine is also getting full and after reading around I discovered that it will start to erase old backups to replace with new ones.  My problem with this is that I have used Time MAchine as a way of storing home movies and films exteranally as they take up to much space and therefore are no longer on the mac itself.  I bought a new disk so that rather than being a backup i can simply store files there and when needed plug it in if i want to use them ie videos old photos etc.
    I currently have smart albums set up in iPhoto for each year so photos automatically drop into these depending on when they were taken. 
    I would like to move the older albums straight to an external and delete from my mac.  How do I go about this as deleting the smart folder wont delete the originals and can I drag a smart folder to an external drive?  If not how do I find photos taken by year move them across to the external and delete the original.
    Thanks

    Hello there MrCoates14,
    You are correct, deleting the photos from the Smart Album will not remove the originals from the computer, and based on what else you want to do with iPhoto, heres what I recommend.
    First you can export the photos in the Smart Album to an external drive, as outlined in this article iPhoto '11: Export a photo found here http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2438. Note: At step 1, you want to highlight ALL the photos in the album, not just 1.
    To export photos:
    Select the photo or photos you want to export.
    Choose File > Export.
    At the top of the Export Photos window, click the File Export button.
    To specify the file type for the exported photo, choose an option from the Kind pop-up menu:Original: Exports the photo as it was originally imported into iPhoto, before editing.Current: Exports the photo in its current format. If you imported a RAW-format photo and then edited it in iPhoto, the photo is exported as a JPEG file.JPEG: If you choose this format, choose an option from the JPEG Quality pop-up menu. The higher the quality, the bigger the photo. For example, if the photo will be used on a website where optimal quality for printing isn’t required, you could choose Low to save storage space on the website.TIFF: A lossless file format that works well for transferring photos between computers and applications.PNG: Another lossless file format popular for web images.
    To change the size (resolution), choose an option from the Size pop-up menu:
    For photos to be emailed or mainly viewed onscreen, these settings compress the photos (making them smaller):
    Small: Use for photos you email or publish to websites where you don’t expect anyone to download and print your photos.
    Medium: Use when you or your recipients have a reasonably fast Internet connection, such as DSL. This setting is not suitable for making prints.
    Large: Use this setting when you and your recipients have a very fast connection. This size can be used to print small to standard-size photos (2 by 3, 3 by 5, and 4 by 6 inches).
    For photos to be printed or published for download, these settings provide maximum detail for final prints:
    Optimized: Use for larger prints and for publishing photos to websites for others to download and print. With this setting, photos are slightly compressed to a smaller file size so that they download faster without compromising quality.
    Actual Size/Full Size: Use to make high-quality prints in small to large sizes, or to upload photos to websites so that others can download and print them. This setting matches the actual size of your photo, so it may take longer to upload or download.
    Specify your other options:Include checkboxes: If you choose JPEG or TIFF from the Kind pop-up menu, you can include titles, keywords, and location information with the exported photos by selecting the checkboxes.File Name: Choose whether to export photos in sequence, or by their filenames, iPhoto titles, or album name.Prefix for sequential: If you choose Sequential from the File Name pop-up menu, you can specify text to appear before each number (for example, Birthday01, Birthday02, and so on). This step is optional.
    Click Export.
    Choose where to save the exported photo files, and then click OK.
    Then when they are all exported you can Create a New Event from the photos in each album to group them all together in Events, so that when you delete the new event with all the photos in the album in it, they will be deleted from the library. Here is the article for that named iPhoto '11: Create a new Event found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2364.
    You also have the option to iPhoto '11: Move your iPhoto library to a new location if you just want to move the entire library to the external drive and use the library from the drive directly: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2506
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • How to delete an event, but not the photos

    hello. i imported a few photos from my iphone 4 to iphoto and it created an event. i dragged and dropped those photos to a specific album on iphoto which is the only place i want them. i then deleted the newly created event but the photos disappeared from that album i put them in as as well. how can i prevent this from happening? thanks.

    You can not, of course, do that
    Events is one view of the photos in your library. Photos is another
    Albums are pointers to photos in your library. You can remove photos from albums without removing the photo but you can not remove the photo without removing it. Removing a photo obviously removes it from all views

  • Can I delete an "event" but not the photos? Turn album in2 an event....how?

    If I get this right, an event basically equals every unique import of photos. Yet what am I to do if I dont want an event for every import, most especially when people email me one photo that i save to iphoto, that to me isnt a event. I spent hours upon hours creating 'albums' of what have now been coined my events.....so how do i take all the contents of one album that i created in iLife '07 and turn it into an event, even if the photos could have come from various imports along the way? iLife is telling me it's impossible, but there has to be a work around.
    So basically I want to be able to delete events, but not it's photos.
    And how do I turn my previous albums from iLife '07 & that include photos from various imports to one event in iLife '08.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Not quite. Events are NOT albums, they are an updated version of the Rolls feature in v6. As with v6, every import created a Roll, but you can move pics between Events, create and edit them and so on, just like you could with Rolls. Your albums are not affected by this activity.

  • Windows 7 will recognize one ipod but not the other?

    I previously owned a 2nd gen iTouch, which would not be recognized by Windows or iTunes. The funny thing is, iTunes would recognize a 4th generation ipod nano that I also had. So I thought there was something wrong with my iTouch, so I went and bought a 4th generation iTouch.
    I came home with it 2 days ago, and found that the same issue occurred. Windows 7 and iTunes will recognize my ipod nano, but not my new iTouch. I have attempted to use a friend's laptop, and both the Windows 7 and the iTunes will recognize both the nano and the iTouch, so I'm assuming that there's something wrong with either my laptop or the configurations in Windows 7.
    I have already completed the uninstall and reinstall of iTunes and related programs as per the Apple Support instructions, to no avail. I've also checked to see that all my USB ports and devices are up to date. I was on the phone with Apple support for 4 times and in the Apple store today. I found that iTunes will recognize the new iTouch when I put it in recovery mode. (At which time it requests that I Restore my brand new iTouch. Then gives me a 'hardware error 1611', and the iTouch goes missing again.)
    It would be very much appreciated if somebody would be able to give me a push in the right direction? Thank you so much!

    They are different devices.
    The ipod supports disk mode, the ipod touch does not.
    The ipod can be use like a flash drive the ipod touch cannot.
