Iphoto wont import

For some reason iphoto will not import photos anymore and just crashes everytime. I have tried deleting the library, creating a new library and tried import again and the same crash happens. I have also tried deleting iphoto, reinstalling it and nothing... same crash issue. I also tried repair the hard disk and doing it all again and... nothing the same crash.
Please help Apple!!!

  • IPhoto wont import my images?

    Hello, I plugged in my iPhone to my MacBook Pro today and I wanted to import all my pictures from my iPhone to my computer. I opened iPhoto and clicked import all... and It gave me an error message saying "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem downloading an image. What should I do? I need to import all my pictures because I am running out of space on my phone.. Please help! Thank you

    Go to Image Capture and use the Preferences there to set what happens when camera is connected.
    As to the import problem: start with the troubleshooting basics
    1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the home / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
    3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • Iphoto wont import my pics.

    Hiya,
    I have a new camera an Olympus Tough. Iphoto imported about 5 pics and then refused.
    I dont like olympus master and really want my pics in iphoto.
    It tells me they are in an unrecognized format..
    but this is the format:
    /Pictures/iPhoto Library/Import/Originals/Roll 1/P1230001.JPG
    Any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    /Pictures/iPhoto Library/Import/Originals/Roll 1/P1230001.JPG
    Why are you trying to import pics that are already in the Library? iPhoto won't import pics that are in the Library folder - a precaution against duplicates.

  • IPhoto wont import photos from iphone

    I'm trying to import photos from my 32GB iPhone 3 into iphoto on my macbook pro. This is the first time I've had this difficulty. The curious thing is it did import 4 photo & 2 movie img files. After about an hour waiting while it processes 188 images it lists the jpg images and says they are unreadable. But they are viewable on the iphone and I can see the ones I email. What might be going wrong here? Any ideas appreciated.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. More information means you get better assistance. (And no, more exclamation marks do not get help faster or make your issue seem urgent. They just make it seem like you have a stuck key )

    This solved my questionRe: ios update problem - 7.1 11D167 iphoto not picking up new photos
    Mar 20, 2014 7:15 AM (in response to JdinPa)
    I figured out the fix for the Mac users having this problem. I connected my iPhone to my iMac and started iTunes. A dialogue came up in iTunes, I OK'd that and then OK'd the usual "Do you trust this Mac" that comes up on my iPhone.

  • I moved from back up folder to iphoto they imported ok but now it wont let me veiw them?

    i moved from back up folder to iphoto they imported ok but now it wont let me veiw them?

    want help - give us details - with what you gave us one can not even make wild guesses
    How did you backup and how did you restore? what versions of iPhoto and the OS. What exactly does "won't let me view them" mean? Why are you restoring a backup? what other details can you provide that might let someone actually help you?

  • Iphoto wont save imported photos from iphone

    Iphoto will import iphone photos, but as soon as iphoto is closed the photos are not saved to iphoto. Therefore I cannot download my photos off my iphone to iphoto. How do I get iphoto to keep the pics I import from my iphone?

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database
    And OS X 10.6.8 is an OS - it is not a version of iPhoto - you version of iPhoto is something like 9.x.x or 8.x.x

  • Iphoto wont recognize memory card to load pictures

    all of a sudden iphoto wont recognize the memory card to import pictures. when you put card in reader iphoto launches but you dont see the card on the left hand side and it doesnt ask you to import the pictures. If you remove the card you get device removal error - then card appears on left and import button shows up but nothing happens when you push the button??
    If you go to Finder the card is there and i can "select all" and drag them to iphoto. This is really strange - please help?

    If your card shows up in the Finder then you can still import from inside iPhoto. Do File > Import to Library, then navigate to the camera card. You can preview the photos, select the ones you want to import, and import them to iPhoto. This is actually my preferred method, since it allows me to choose exactly which photos I want to upload from my camera.
    Don't remove the card reader from the USB port until you have ejected it properly. You can do that from in the Finder. Click on the little triangle eject symbol next to the name of the card (below your HD icon). When the card disappears from the list it is properly ejected and you may safely disconnect the card reader.
    I don't know why the card suddenly stopped appearing in the iPhoto Source List. One thing you can try is to use your camera to do a low-level format of the card. This has been known to improve a card's performance. The second thing you can try is to delete iPhoto's preference file. Close iPhoto. Use the Finder to navigate to Macintosh HD/ Users/ (your user name)/ Library/ Preferences/ com.apple.iPhoto.plist, then move that file to the trash. You'll have to reset iPhoto's preferences back to your liking after you launch it.

  • I deleted languages now iphoto wont open

    Hi there,
    I deleted all the languages from iphoto . I clicked on the iphoto icon whilst it was in finder, i clicked on info to show details, then i erased all languages( deselected english but somehow still deleted) now iphoto wont open.
    Any suggestions? I thought about backing up the application from time machine but will that erase any new photos i have on current iphoto library?
    Thanks matt

    Matt:
    You'll need to restore the iPhoto application using Time Machine. Restoring the application will not affect your photos. They are separate from the application. *Never delete the English module from any application or the system.*
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger 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.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Why has iphoto stopped importing from iphone

    Up til now iPhoto has always opened automatically when I connect my iPhone to my computer and started importing photos. In the last week it has stopped.  I have looked at iPhoto preferences and iTunes preferences but can't find how to change settings.  Can anyone help?  Thanks

    IMPORTANT READ THIS: disregard everything else i said about photostream because that is not your problem.
    ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SIMPLY SIGNOUT OF MAC ACCOUNT AND SING BACK IN AND PLUG YOUR IPHONE AGAIN
    once you have done this iphoto will pop up to import photos. the problem was that you probably quit out of iphoto when it was triying to import iphone photos once. If you do this, as long as your sighned in to your mac account, iphoto wont pop up, no matter how many times you plug your iphone nto the mac.

  • When using Iphoto to import photo from existing folder, what happens if I delete the photo in Iphoto ? Will the original file in the folder be deleted too?

    When using Iphoto to import photo from existing folder to iphoto, what happens if:
    1. I delete that photo in iphoto? will the original file in the folder be deleted too ?
    2.  when importing, does the hard disk store 2 versions of the photo, hence occupying additional space in the harddisk?

    1 - no  --  iPhoto only manages fiel within the iPhoto library - it does not ever do anything with files outside the library
    2 - No idea what you are asking - by default (and strongly recommended) iPhoto copies the original to the iPhoto library and you delete the source file outside the iPhoto library - iPhoto alwasy has at least two versions of every photo and some times three - it always have the original, a thumbnail and once a photo is modified a preview - this is not optional - if it is not what you want then iPhoto is not the correct progrtam to be using for phopto management
