IPhoto says "no items" on Canon SD750 though many pictures on Camera

I have a Canon SD750 from which i have imported thousands of photos in the past. I got back from a weekend with a bunch of new photos, and now when i hook up to my iMac to import, iPhoto '09 recognizes the camera as a device, but it says there are no items. I can see the items on the display of the camera while it is plugged in.
Is there any way to browse the camera's contents? I have thousands of photos on the card, many of which I have imported in the past, and its still only about half full.
Any thoughts would be appeciated.
Thanks,

I am concerned that maybe the card or camera is corrupted.
It probably is just the card - The card probably just needs to be re-formatted
Get a USB card reader (mine was about $13.00 at Radio Shack) and mount your card to the desktop and recover what you can (maybe all of the photos) then use the camera to reformat the card

  • Finder shows my pics, but iPhoto says No Items..

    Hello, I hope someone can help me with this problem. I just transferred my photos from my pc to the folder "iPhoto" on my iMac. When I open Finder, my picture files are there, but when I open "iPhoto" and the Library is highlighted, there are no pics. At the bottom of the window it says "no items".
    Why aren't the pics showing up in my Library? I decided to try and Import to Library (from File on menu), but it says cannot import because files are in my Library! lol??
    Appreciate any help. This is my first MAC computer, so I'm just learning my way around it.. Thank you.

    Drag them out of the iPhoto Library folder *in the Finder* and put them in a folder on the desktop. Open iPhoto. Then open the folder on the desktop, select the pictures in the folder, and drag them into the open iPhoto window. They will be imported into the library.
    Pictures that are already inside an iPhoto Library folder can't be imported into that library or any other. Trying to do so will always produce the "unreadable files" error message. It's not a clear message, but this is why you're seeing it.

  • Iphoto froze in the middle of an import. Had to unplug my phone and walk away for a minute while it was still frozen. Now it says it's importing photos even though nothing is plugged in. Now when I plug in my phone it won't import new photos.

    Iphoto froze in the middle of an import. Had to unplug my phone and walk away for a minute while it was still frozen. Now it says it's importing photos even though nothing is plugged in. Now when I plug in my phone it won't import new photos. Also refuses to quit iPhoto, preventing me from shutting down/restarting my laptop and I'm starting to get worried. What do I do???

  • IPhoto says "installing" in app store, on iMac with Yosemite, but it never gets installed.

    I have an older iMac, 24" from the late 2009 era, have upgraded to Yosemite, but now iPhoto won't open.  It says that I need to go to the app store and install the new version.  When I do that very thing, iPhoto says, "Installing" in the gray box that used to say Install, but it never seems to finish installing.  What can I do to fix this?

      What can I do to fix this?
    Start over.
    Find iPhoto on the Launch Pad, hold down on it, till the LaunchPad items start to wiggle, then click the cross to uninstall iPhoto.
    Restart your Mac, then try to install iPhoto again.

  • Corrupted RAW photos in iPhoto 9.6 (Yosemite) from Canon 60D

    Early 2008 iMac, 4GB RAM, Yosemite 10.10.1, iPhoto 9.56 (910.29), Canon 60D. Downloaded images/thumbnails from camera via cable, card reader or backup hard drive are partially to fully blacked out in iPhoto. This does not happen with cable down load to MacAir or on iMac with older Canon camera. Have formatted and changed memory card in camera, reinstalled Yosemite and iPhoto to no avail. I need iPhoto to work seamlessly with my camera the way it used to or find an alternative. No work arounds, please. I can do that. I'd like my system and software to work the way it's supposed to work. Thank you.

    Which version of the RAW support do you have installed?
    If the problem directly started after installing the latest RAW support, try reinstall the RAW support by downloading it from Apple's download page.
    That helped in similar cases, e.g.: Re: Digital Camera Raw Compatibility 6.02 - Nikon D800
    Make a backup of your system and try to downgrade the RAW support to version 6.01
    To downgrade the RAW Support to the last version from before the last update try this:
    To reinstall the 'RAW Compatibility Update' it is necessary to uninstall the currently installed raw support. Otherwise the installer will rightfully say, that you already have the latest version installed.
    If your tests are showing that the problem happens also in a different user account, try this:
    The RAW support files are installed in the System Library in the folder "/System/Library/CoreServices" Folder:
    To open this folder, use the Finder's "Go" menu. Click the smiling Finder icon in the Dock to bring the Finder forward.
    Then type the keyboard shortcut ⇧⌘G  (for "Finder > Go > Go to folder")  and copy and paste "/System/Library/CoreServices" into the text field. Click the "Go" button.
    In the Finder window that will open, delete both the files "RawCamera.bundle" and "RawCameraSupport.bundle". You will have to enter your Administrator password. (don't empty the Trash, so you can put the files back, if need be)
    Download the current RAW support update from Apple's Support Site:
    Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 6.01 http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1777?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    In the Downloads folder you will find the disk image with the installer. Double click it to open and run and the installer.
    Then restart your Mac.

  • Cannot open my library. iPhoto says I opened it before with a newer version which is not true.

    Cannot open my library. iPhoto says I opened it before with a newer version which is not true. I am using Snow Leopard and iPhoto 7.1.5 which seems to be the latest update. How can I reach my photos? I don't particually care for iPhoto anymore since I am using Lightroom now, but I would very much like to reach my picture files, HELP

    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 Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    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. 

  • IPhoto says "unable to connect to Photo Stream"

    So I just re-did my OS on my iMac, so everything was started from a clean slate.
    I started adding user accounts, and had no problems whatsoever setting up my iCloud and PhotoStream in iPhoto. With that being said, after creating my moms user account, adding her iCloud, iPhoto says "unable to connect to photostream"
    Any thoughts or ideas as to why it would say that?
    Thanks!

    Everything is where it should be After giving up last night for a bit I went to bed and decided to try it again this morning and suprisingly it worked. This was after I left all the Keychain Access items with the AppleID deleted.
    Thanks!

  • Apple Watch order status says processing items. Shows delivery date of 4/24-5/8? Is this normal?

    Apple Watch order status says processing items. Shows delivery date of 4/24-5/8? Is this normal?

    I read that Sport Space Grey models (black band) are not among first to be shipped whereas Sport Aluminum White band is shipping. This could also be anecdotal. Time will tell. As said here, no one promised 4/24 delivery.
    Looking forward to it, though.

  • I have a new MBAir 2013 13", and I had a MBPro 2010 13". I've installed iPhoto 9.4.3 but now iPhoto says my library (stored on an external HDD) cannot be read until I update the software because it's made with an updated iPhoto... but it IS updated!

    As the tile says, I've recently bought a MBAir 2013 13". When I installed and updated iPhoto, I wanted to use my library, stored on an external hdd, which I used until the day before on my old MBPro 2010 13", without any problems. Now iPhoto says that this library cannot be opened by my iPhoto but it has to be opened with an updated iPhoto... but I had iPhoto 9.4.3 on my MBPro and I have iPhoto 9.4.3 on my MBAir! What can I do? Thanks a lot (sorry for my english, I'm Italian)

    It's mac os format
    BTW I solved my issue! I repaired my library with the last option... and I did not lost anything thanks anyway!

  • Order status is still saying processing items

    I ordered my IPad 3 on the 16th of March, so it was after the pre-order thing and I was going to just buy it straight away from a apple store but dicided to order online with engraving and the apple smart cover. Both the items are still saying "processing items". I have recieved an order confirmation email but not the shipped confirmation email unless I didn't read it right but the email just said that they can get it deliverered eariler than expected. This is my first time ordering on the apple website although I have an IPhone 4S which i recieved as a christmas present and I think was brought from o2 so I have no idea how long this would take. Why is it still saying "Processing Items"? Surely it doesn't take apple this long to process the items.

    Further to my original post, I received my iPad on the 29th which was a day after the earliest possible delivery date. The order status did not change until the day before it arrived so don't worru about that. I realised that it had dead pixels, rang up on Thursday evening and arranged for it to be picked up, replacement arrived on the Wednesday after (4th). This one also had dead pixels and a new one arrived today which I hope is not going to have dead pixels! I am impressed by the speed in which they ship out replacements but annoyed at the quality control if I'm honest.

  • One of my apps won't update. A message comes up saying "The item you tried to buy is no longer available", but when I open the app, it works.

    I looked at my iphone 4 and I had two apps that needed to be updated. I pressed "Update All", but only one of them updated. The other, which is the HauteLook app, didn't, and has the little red 1 on my app store application. When I open the app store, it says it needs to be updated. When I press update or update all, the little bar shows up, then a message comes up saying "The item you tried to buy is no longer avaliable". I pressed ok, and it still says it has to be updated. I have opened the app and used it, so it's not broken. I have turned off my phone and turned it back on, and the notification that I need to update it is still there. I have tried restarting my phone, and it's still there. I have also tried plugging my phone into my computer to see if the update shows up iTunes, but it doesn't. I have had my phone for almost 2 years and this has never happened to me before. I did just recently get the IOS 6 update, but since having it, I have had to update apps and never got this message until now. If anyone has any idea how to fix this I would really appericate the help!

    I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two.  Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.

  • IPhoto says it cannot import my photos b/c they may be an unrecognized file or the file may not contain valid data. The operation could not be completed. Error code is: ImageCaptureCoreError-9905.

    Unable to download photos from my camera. iPhoto returns an error message that states: The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file or the files may not contain valid data). FILE NAME: 100_0490.JPG      REASON: com.apple.ImageCaptureCoreError- 9905.  WHAT'S UP WITH THAT?  Did not have a problem importing photos under the LEOPARD OS, however, now that I have upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.3 the iPHOTO app is not performing the imports.

    Are you using Photos, or iPhoto? Maybe you've got a corrupt file on your camera. I would try using the image capture application to import the bad picture to my desktop. If it works and the picture looks ok,  then delete that pic from the camera, then try to import into iphoto again. You can then import the pic it was saying was bad from your desktop.
    Or, try downloading all the pics using image capture and then import from the download folder.
