IPhoto "stuck" but not importing

I'm a brand new MacBook Air owner.  I plugged my iPhone in to the Air and iPhoto says it's importing photos- but it isn't.
Nothing is happening. I cannot quit the App. I cannot stop the import. I cannot restart my computer. Help!
It's just stuck!

Thank you. So easy! I have much to learn- I haven't been on Mac in a decade.  I've forgotten how easy it is
Thank you LarryHN

  • Since my last software update, my iphoto 11 will not import any photos from any source. The circle just spins...when I go to force quit, it says iphoto not responding. Backed up iphoto library, uninstalled and reinstalled iphoto. Still not working. Help!

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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. .

    LR 5.6 on Mac desktop all of a sudden will not read any card from any reader but will work on my laptop. I can work on previous images but not import new ones. Even if I create a catalog on laptop and import to my desktop on a thumb drive, the images are only accessible as long as the thumb drive is inserted.

    Sounds like you may need to repair the Disk Permissions on your drive where your images are stored.

  • My title and description info on my iPhoto images do not import to Aperture with the image

    My title and description info on my iPhoto images do not import to Aperture 3.2 with the image. Is this just the default setting and if so, is there a way to import all the info?

  • Released but not imported tp orders

    Hi Experts!
    Is there a away to list released (approved in D/Q environment) but not imported transport orders ?
    I read all posts regarding FM's around tms, but couldnt find a away to get that orders !
    Thanks in advance,
    Pedro

    Hi,
    If you want Transport Requests, then,
    Check tables, E070, E07T, E070A.
    Use func modile: 'STRF_READ_COFILE' to get the log for the transports.
    If you are talking abt transport orders, then you need to still explore.

  • I can't load pictures to online site... Iphoto works but not aperture.  I have edited photos that i exported to an external drive but they will still not load to Walgreens for printing.  Does anyone know what I can do?

    I can't load pictures to online site... IPhoto works but not aperture3.  I have edited photos that I exported to an external drive but they will still not load to Walgreens for printing.  Does anyone know what I can do?

    Are you shooting RAW? Are you exporting masters or versions? Is there a size limitation on the Walgreens site?

  • Iphoto albums did not import to photos app

    I updated to OS X 10.10.3 as suggested.  This replaces iPhoto with the Photos app.  The Photos app said it was adapting my iPhoto library to Photos.  I have 15,700 photos.  The process was very slow so I left it running. 
    When I returned several hours later, the Photos app was open but had no library.  I was offered the 4 basic options including import.  When trying to import photos, the finder window showed the old iPhoto library, but it was greyed out.  How do I get my 15,700 iPhoto images into Photos?

    Don't use the import panel, switch to your iPhoto Library.
    Either drag the iPhoto Library to the Photos icon in the Dock,
    or quit Photos, then hold down the alt/options key while double clicking the Photos icon in the Dock.  Select the iPhoto Library from the Library chooser panel.
    Photos should have migrated your library automatically, Either it did not migrate the correct library, because your iPhoto Library could not be found or opened, or your iPhoto Library has a corruption.
    Where is your iPhoto Library stored? In the default location, your Pictures folder, or on an external drive?  If external drive, is the filesystem correct (MacOS Extended (Journaled)) or do you keep the library in a partition that is formatted for Windows?  Is the drive locally mounted or a network volume?

  • Video (mov)  in iPhoto 8 library seen in iPhoto 8 but not iMovie 8.

    After installing iLife 08, I can see my photos and videos in iPhoto 08, and the videos (mov from Kodak V570) play fine in QT. However, in iMovie 08, I cannot see all of my videos in the event library (though the manual leads me to believe I should be able to see them). I can see some of my videos (the ones that I had on the computer when I installed iMovie 08). I cannot see any video that I imported into the iPhoto library after initial install from within the iMovie 08 event library. If I try to import the video, all of the video files within the iPhoto library are grayed out. I can import the videos (mov) just fine into iMovie06.
    Much discussion on this topic within the iMovie08 forum. No solutions, though. A person suggested that the topic be raised in the iPhoto forum, since the iPhoto library in iPhoto08 is the library for iMovie08. Appreciate any help.

    I have exactly the same problem as well... I upgraded from iMovie HD to iMovie'08. I can only see one video clip from my iPhoto library but I have over hundreds of these clips... not sure why. I am using *.AVI video files.

  • Iphoto: find photos not imported in the iPhoto Library

    Hello
    I've got this message from iPhoto since few days, trying to repair the DB with no success, any idea ??
    In English : Photos not imported are find in the iPhoto library.
    I've also tried this terminal command to optimze the DB for dbase in *.db; do sqlite3 $dbase "vacuum;"; done but no success.
    Thanks for your feedback

    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. Make no other changes. Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • Photos in library but not imported

    If the photos are in the library but are not imported then where are they and how do I find them? I keep getting a dialog box when I start iphoto that tells me that iphoto found photos in the library that were not imported and asks if I would like to import them. If I say no it imports them anyway and asks me again the next time i start iphoto so i now have over 400 copies of the same photo. So now every time I start iphoto it finds the same photo and all the copies in the library but they are not imported so I want to go find wherever they are and delete them for good so that dialog box goes away when I start iphoto...help!

    shatton:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Close iPhoto, open the library package like this and look for a folder with "Import" in its title. If you find one move it to the desktop and launch iPhoto. Note if you get that message or not. If not then try importing the contents of the Import folder you moved to the desktop.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Newbie - iPhoto Library Pics not imported

    I always get the message below when opening i Photo:
    71895 photos have been found in the iPhoto Library that were not imported. I always click no and have tried the suggestions on how to solve the problem but it does not work. One of the suggestions says to look in the root directory for recovered photos and move to the desk top.
    Where is the root directory and how do I move the folder? Please take note this is my first Mac.
    Best regards,
    N. Boquiren

    Please take note this is my first Mac.
    If it's less than two or three years old, then I'm guessing your version of iPhoto is newer than iPhoto 4, and you are likely to get more appropriate responses from the discussion forum that corresponds to the iPhoto version you are using.

  • Iphoto stuck trying to import

    I tried importing 2 photos from photobooth onto iphoto, and it ended up causing iphoto to quit unexpectedly. Now, whenever I open iphoto, a message pops up that says, "2 photos have been found in the iPhoto library that were not imported. Would you like to import them?" It doesn't matter if I hit yes or no, it always says that the photos are put in a new "recovered photos" file. Then iPhoto stays sort of frozen on the import screen for a second or two, and then quits unexpectedly and I get the message asking if I want to try to reopen it. I actually deleted the photos from photobooth in a half-hearted attempt to circumvent this, but it didn't change anything.

    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • Photo stream is showing up in iphoto recent but not web and I am not able to join the shared photo stream.  all of my software is updated.  can someone tell me how to get photo stream in the web source list? thanks!

    Can someone help me get Photo Stream to appear under Web in the iPhoto Source List? I have updated all my software.  iPhoto 11, Mac OS X 10.7.5  All of my preferences are checked.  I am able to see the shared Photo Stream on my iPad, but not my Mac.  The Mac iPhoto photos from the shared photo stream are appearing in the Photo Stream (under Recent), but I thought they would appear as a shared Photo Stream in its own file/album (like on the iPad and iPhone)  - labeled with the shared Photo Stream's title.  Is this supposed to happen on the Mac?  Thanks!

    So you are saying for it to do what i want: shared photo stream to appear in web then i need to upgrade.
    Yes
    Does that mean i purchase the new software an it's not just an update?
    Yes
    Your profile indicates your running 10.7.5.  For shared Photo Streams you need to be running 10.8.2 or later: The following is from  iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    What do I need to use Photo Stream?
    To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:  iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
    So you'll need to upgrade to Mt. Lion.
    iPhoto requirements are free updates for iPhoto '11
