IPhoto sees double pictures on iPhone

Hi,
I connected my iPhone 5s (iOS 8 latest version) to my Mac (OS Yosemite latest version).
When iPhoto (ver. 9.6) automatically opens it sees a double copy for every pictures stored on the iPhone.
Theres a way to solve this problem?
Thanx.

The same buggy behavior has been reported for iPhoto, since the iOS 8.1 release. It happens in iPhoto, Image Capture, Aperture, but not all are seeing this problem.
For example, see these discussions:
iPhoto Yosemite duplicates Photos while importing from iPhone
iPhoto 9.6 shows duplicate photos present on iPhone
Connecting iPhone duplicates photos in iPhoto
duplicate photos in camera roll on iPhoto
Unfortunately, there is no clear picture yet, what circumstances will make it happen, and how to prevent it.
For some forum members it was the Photo Stream (Duplication upon importation from Iphone to Iphoto), others found it was caused by HDR photos, for some the problem went away after the 8.1.2 update, for others it started with this update.
A few forum members reported, that it helped to dismount the iPhone and plug it in again (iPhoto 9.6 shows duplicate photos present on iPhone), and then the duplicates went away. One member reported, that Apple Support claimed this problem to be caused by iCloud iPhoto libary (Beta), and indeed turning off iCloud iPhoto libary (Beta) made he duplicates vanish for him.

Iphoto wont tranfer pictures from iphone

I cant transfer pictures from my iphone to iphoto because i get an error message saying "Error downloading image.
iPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem downloading an image"

Hi there...
I have had the same problem... I have been using my iphone camera for a few years without a problem. Suddenly one day I could not upload to iphoto. I tried everything you can imagine. Nothing. I even tried to upload to Picassa. No Joy. I called Apple support and they suggested I email to myself whatever photos I wanted to keep and delete the remaining and weed out the offending photo/file... This was not an option. I decided to trawl through my photos one by one and I suddenly noticed that some of my photos on iphone were taken in HD. I remembered I started taking some photos on HD just to try it out. I only had about a dozen of them. I then remembered that these photos were taken about the same time as I started having to upload problems. So I deleted all the HD photos. I re-connected to iphoto and guess what? .... IT WORKED! ..... Happy days! ... Try it and let me know if it works for you! Good luck!

ITunes (nor IPhoto) sees my 1st gen IPhone

I suppose it is traffic issues but...
When I plugged my I phone into my PowerBook (running Tiger 10.4.11) neither IPhoto nor ITunes detected it. I'm running ITunes 8.2
I followed the troubleshooting protocols:
changed UBS ports
restarted both IPhone and Mac
Still nothing.
Could this be volume, ITune issues or IPhone 3.0 problems? Anyone know if 2nd generation IPhones having this problem or is it only with 1st generation.
I'm suppose to pick up my new 3GS on Friday (preordered from Apple Store). Do you think I'm going to have problems sync my stuff with it? I'm especially concerned because I cannot backup anything at this point.
Thanks! And happying IPhoning!

Just killed mine, Same error 11222, Wish I had checked your message before hitting Restore. Guess new iTunes store no longer has access to connection software for Original iPhone.

How to get pictures from iphone 4s to iphoto?

I am unable to get the pictures from my new iPhone 4s transfered to iPhoto on my iMac (version 10.5.8).
It does sync via iCloud to my iPad, but it will not transfer pictures to iPhoto when connecting the phone to my iMac. The phone doesn't appear on iPhoto... I don't have iCloud on my older iMac. It is not very impressive if you must have iCloud to be able to get pictures from iPhone 4s to iPhoto!
Any ideas?

I'm having the same problem. I know that doesn't help you, but at least you know you're not alone.

In the libary of iPhoto I do have double pictures only in the year 2006. Can someone please tell me how to remove the double pictures. I did rebuilt the libary but that solution did not help me any further.

I think the warning is very clear.
What warning? Where do you say that this plan you suggest will lose at least some, and possibly a whole lot of metadata, plus the original files of edited photos. This is significant dataloss. And you should warn people that this is the case.
While your metadata and originals may not be important to you, that is not necessarily the case for other users.
Fourthly, and last, cleaning the iPhoto library should be done at least once per year
This is nonsense. The iPhoto Library has no need of "cleaning" and certainly not in any way that trashes a whole lot of data.
I'm very impressed that you assess the application based on the sound of the name. It's not a common way to review applications, but I'm sure it has some merit.
FWIW it has been recommended on this - and other - sites for many years and has proven safe and effective.

Importing pictures from Iphone 3gs to the Imac (using Iphoto?)

I recently bought an Imac 27". Everything is set up and updated and now I want to import the 2,500 photos I have on my iphone on to my mac. But Im having problems.
The Iphone synchronizes with Itunes fine. But under "pictures" If I check the box "synchronize pictures from Iphoto" (Maybe I shouldnt do this but I though I needed to to get the pictures from my Iphone to Iphoto" it gives me the message "Are you sure you want to synchronize pictures? all the pictures and albums on your Iphone will be replaced with pictures and albums from the current picturegallery"(roughly transelated)
I didnt do this since as I understand it this will cause me to loose all my 2,500 pictures I have on the Iphone.
When I open Iphoto it doesnt detect the Iphone at all.. No Iphone in the left menu at all. Image capture doesnt detect the Iphone either.
*So what can I do to get the pictures from my iphone on to my mac?*
The pictures in the camera roll are
1. Pictures taken with the Iphone
2. Pictures taken with another persons Iphone and that got sent to me
3. Pictures taken with another persons mobile(not an Iphone( and that got sent to me
4.Pictures saved from the net from safari browser
5. Pictures edited in Iphone apps and saved from the apps they where edited in.
if that info helps at all.. Im very confused now and I hopesomeone can help me out here. I though Iphone and Imac where supposed to be easy..

English is not my mother tongue but I will try to answer this the best I can from what I have understood..
The Iphone has synchronized with my pc previously and the apps I had on my Iphone then went to the Itunes I used on that computer.
I got the Imac yesterday and did synchronize the Iphone with the Itunes on the Imac wich caused me to loose over half of my applications and the one album I had on the Iphone. I have checked the boxes on everything so that Itunes synchronizes everything with the Iphone now, I guess this has nothing to do with backup but I thought I had to check the boxes for it to backup all of the things I want backup of.
When I open the adressbook program on the mac I can see my contacts there so I guess the backup is there then...
I dont really understand the Itunes content question.. I have no Itunes content no more except for the apps. I only had one album before wich was lost when I synchronized with the Imac.
The thing you talked about not syncing with an empty adressbook. you mean like after I have reset my Iphone so its blank I have to make a dummy contant before I connect it to the Imac and synchronizes the contacts? and choose merge instead of replace?
how do I actually format and reset the whole Iphone back to fabric condition? and after I have done that and connected it to the Itunes should I uncheck everybox in the sync options except contacts and then sync the Iphone?
After that I would assume I should delete the backup I have on Itunes from before I reset the Iphone so that all the pictures wont get put back in my Iphone?

IPhoto sync's only some pictures from iPhone

Hi,
I'm using iPhoto 9.6 and a iPhone 6 with 8.1.
I have about 600 pictures on my iPhone and 0 in my iPhoto library. When I connect the iPhone to the MAC, iPhoto only allows me to import 95 of the pictures.
How can I import all 600 pictures from the iPhone to iPhoto?

Have the missing photos been taken on the iPhone or have they been synced to the iPhone? If they have been synced to to iPhone using iTunes, you cannot download them using USB. Mail them to your Mac or share them to a Photo Stream. You can only download photos using a USB connection that are in the Camera Roll.

Hallo. My computer can't see my iPhone 4 when I open iTunes. iPhoto sees my iPhone as a device, but can't see its photos, although it recognizes how many photos there are. Some help? Thanks

Did you also read that same link you provided and see this "With iTunes 10.3 or later and iOS 4.3.3 or later, "?
Iphone 3G does not support ios 4.3

I have over 300 pictures on my phone...my question to someone iphone savvy is why, when I plug my phone into the computer is iPhoto showing no pictures? I want to delete them for space issues. Thanks

I've seen this happen when the phone was encrypted... Other than calling apple/deleting passcodes I don't know of any solution.
If you're keen on waiting, upload your photos to dropbox, that's the way I do it.

I can't find my pictures from iphoto. I was downloading Iphone pictures and the library disappeared. How can I recover them?

Restoring a backup is specific to the backup program you are using to do your daily backups - consult it's manual, help file or author's support site
Back up your iPhoto library, Depress the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library starting with the first option and trying others until you are succesful

I get an error message when trying to import pictures from iphone to iphoto(Imac)

I get an error message trying to import photos from phone to imac. have 266 photos to get on my computer. how can i get these pictures off iphone onto my imac.?

Try a couple folders up - a parent folder's permissions can cause problems with a child subfolder.
And don't just rely on the read-only box. Go to c/users/username/music, right-click and get permissions, go to the security tab and make sure your username has full control and ownership.

If you want your photos to end up in iPhoto, just do a normal sync. If you don't want to use iPhoto, or if you just want to put your phone photos in a normal visible folder on the desktop, luckily when you plug in the iPhone a Mac sees it like a camera or card reader. This means the iPhone will show up in common applications that have an import-from-camera feature. I've copied photos off my iPhone using Apple Image Capture, PhoneView, and Adobe Lightroom, for example.

How does iPhoto play a part in this? You're in the iPhoto forum. Shouldn't you be asking your question in the iPhone forum? I'll ask the powers to be to move you question to the iPhone forum.
