IPod display of imported photos

Using an iPod as backup storage for a digital camera in the field is useful but at times scary. iPods will save RAW images, but display only the word RAW instead of the photos. On a recent trip I shot a mix of RAW and superfine JPEGs but the iPod displayed only a question mark on all of them. I was left unsure if my 1100 photos were secure in their backup storage. Happily all images downloaded correctly. I then did a reset of the iPod to factory defaults and tested it by importing both JPEGs and RAW images. Separately, the iPod displayed the JPEG images, and the RAW photos as "RAW". But if both JPEGs and RAW were on the same camera card, the iPod would not display any images at all, only "?". Apple's information on the camera connector says this indicates an unrecognised file type, but it seems clear that the iPod software cannot cope with mixing file types either. This is a further serious limitation to the use of iPod with camera connector.

Still images are computer generated , thus meaning they are created for print or displaying on a computer monitor. in short the pixels are not of the same shape. in DV video the pixels are rectangle and, your stills are square. a simple quick fix would be to open the stills with your photo editor and, give them just a little gaussian blur. you may also consider resizing the hight of your still. in your photo editor select resize > percent and, change the hight to 90%. be sure constrain is unchecked.
The still will look a little squashed but, will look correct when imported into FCE

IPod jumps to Import Photos - errors out

Original 20 GB iPod updated to 3.1.1. While playing music iPod jumps to Import Photos and errors out "no card inserted". It does it intermittently but often frequently. Does not lock up but I have to go back through menu and reselect music options. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the reply. It is black and white and while playing music, earphones or through remote player, mp3 style or the full iPod plug, it stops playing and the the message on the screen is "card not inserted" and when I page back through the menu it goes to Import Photos.

IPod wants to Import Photos During Playback

My Ipod wants to keep importing Photos even when I am playing a song,,, It will stop the song and want to run the import wizard,,, I have photo importing off,, what can a I to fix this..... I have a Click Wheel IPod

I am having the same problem. I am listening to music and then the music stops and the ipod displays the message "ready to connect." Occassionally I get a message about "no card inserted" and I have never used a card so I don't really know what that's about. It is more aggravating than anything because after toggling through the menu it will go back to music.
Is there a setting that I have accidently activated? Any help would be appreciated. This usually happens when I am using the DLO car adapter....any connection?

Display problem import photos

Hello,
I have a display problem when I try to import photos into Lightroom.
I use the version 5.2.
The problem can be viewed in the following video.
At the begining you can view that there is something weird as under the folder "Panoramas" there is a grey block where there should be the rest of the folders onmy disk.
Then, I try to select a folder on my disk MacHD or SaveSSD and everything is ok.
And when I come back on my disk MacSSD, everything is going wrong (it begins when I click on "Panoramas").
Any idea how to fix this ?

My video was just to illustrate the display problem.
As I said before I had it when I import from my SD card. My common workflow is importing from the SD card to the MacSSD disk, with a renaming. That's why I choose copy and not just Add to the catalog.
By the way, I had another strange thing. In the Folders on the left side of the Library module I got 2 times the same name (folder "2013").
I right-clicked and refesh folder, LR asked me to merge the both folder "2013" and it somehow seems to solve the import problem.
I don't really get what I did.......

IPhoto automatically displaying latest imported photos every time

Hi, I have noticed for a while that iPhoto always automatically comes back to the "latest imported" photo album whenever I come back to the iPhoto window. Does any one knows what that means and how to stop it?
For instance when I go to another app (let's say safari) while I am modifying a picture, when I come back to iPhoto it switches directly to the "latest import" album. This is really annoying !
Thanks for your help !
Louis

Yes. Close iPhoto, go to the Picture folder and open your iPhoto Library package with the Finder as shown in this screenshot:
Look in the Auto Import folder and move any items in it to the Desktop. Launch iPhoto and it should work as expected.

IPhoto not displaying all imported photos

Hi!
I am having trouble viewing all of my photos in iPhoto. They are all in my iCloud, and they appear in that photo stream. However, after I have imported *ALL* of my photos from my iPhone, iPhoto is only displaying some of them. It seems like there is an algorithm that is picking only one photo to display from a series of similar photos, (note: I am not talking about burst photos). I do a lot of shooting with my iPhone for my business, and I hate that I'm not able to access all of them in iPhoto. I also want to make sure that I am actually getting them all archived on my computer before I delete them from my phone. I have used the "Rebuild Thumbnail" function that you can access by holding down command and control when starting iPhoto. This seemed to help some, but it certainly did not restore all of the thumbnails.
I'm running a mid-2011 Macbook Air with OSX 10.10.2 and iPhoto 9.6. My iPhone is up to date also with iOS 8.1.3. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for replying Larry. I am importing via direct USB connection and importing through iPhoto app, not just syncing with iTunes. My photo library is located on my Time Capsule. But I had this problem before I relocated the library to the time capsule actually.

Iphoto not showing imported photos in events

I have been using iphoto for quite a while with very few problems. Recently I have added an iPhone and an apple TV into my apple ecosystem. I have recently noticed that my iphoto library is NOT showing photos imported from 3rd party sources such as my android phone, in the events section of the interface. The photos ARE present in the 'photos' section which leads me to believe that they are IN the library. But when i look at the events and select one say for 3/24 it will only display the photos taken from my wifes iphone and NOT the ones taken from my andriod and imported using the add to library function. I have attempted all four options in the command-option iphoto startup and have gotten no where.
Many of you might that that this is a non issue as the photos are present in the 'photo' section. but as i prefer to use the fullscreen mode in iphoto i do not have access to the 'photos' tab in full screen, only the 'events'.
could my appletv or iPhone or appletv be a contributing factor? Is there an option in events to only display iPhone imported photos?
Any help would be appricaited I am pulling my hair out here.

1 - Photos and events are simply two different views of the same photos - your iPhoto library - so any photo that is in one is always also in the other - you are just looking in the wrong place
2 - the most common issue is incorrect dates on photos so you look in the wrong location for the event - in the photos view right click on one of the photos that you are not seeing in an event and show event
3 - another possiblity is the sort order of the events - verify it under the view menu ==> sort events
4 - No - it is not your Apple TV nor is it your iPhone

HT1363 important photos are stored on ipod but I no longer have the laptop it was synced to can I retrieve them?

Hi I have a 1st Gen ipod and have photos of a family member who is no longer with us stored on it. I don't have the laptop I used to connect to this IPod any more. Can I retrieve the photos to a new computer or somewhere I could print them off?
Thanks in advance for any help. This really is important to me.

A "1st Gen ipod" did not have photo capability, so it must be at least an iPod Photo (4th gen iPod) or later. The information I provide below applies, as long as your iPod is NOT an iPod touch.
The iPod's screen is quite small, so when you sync photos to it, iTunes converts them to a special format that reduces the resolution of the photo to fit the small screen. This saves storage space used on iPod. If you were to transfer the image back to your computer, the low resolution would make it look horribly pixilated when blown up to computer display size. I think there are third-party utilities that can convert and transfer the images files back to the computer, but there is no way to do it using iTunes.
If you used a specific setting when syncing the photos to the iPod, then you can retrieve them at the original resolution. The setting is on the Photos tab for the iPod, in iTunes when you select the iPod in the sidebar, under DEVICES. It is a checkbox that says Include full-resolution photos. If that setting was enabled when you synced the photos to the iPod, then you will be able to retrieve them at the original full resolution.
What you do is Enable disk use, which is a setting on the Summary tab. This makes the iPod's storage appear as a "disk" to the system. You can then use your computer's OS to open the iPod, like it was a flash drive, to find a folder called Photos folder inside. In that folder, you can find any full resolution image files that were previously synced, which you can copy to your computer's hard drive. But again, that Include full-resolution photos setting needed to be enabled at the time you synced the photos to the iPod.

When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

Thanks If anyone can help me.

Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

Lightroom 4.4 can no longer import photos from my iPod Touch 5

I've been importing photos from my iPod via USB without problems for over 6 months. In the last few days, importing from this device slowed down significantly. As of yesterday, the program freezes completely when I try to import (although it had worked earlier - albeit slowly - during that same session.)
I've tried:
Restarting the program, computer, and iPod.
Closing all other programs.
Removing all other external devices from the computer.
Uninstalling the computer's USB hubs and restarting.
Deleting all videos from the iPod's camera roll.
Reducing the size of the camera roll (down to 650 from about 800).
Nothing has worked.
I'm still able to import fine from other sources (an external hard drive & a memory card).
Weirdly, I plugged in my husband's iPod Touch - which until then had never been used in Lightroom - and it also froze at import, so it seems to be a problem with the type of device rather than the device itself.
I'm running Windows 8 64-bit with 3.3 GHz Intel processor and 6 GB RAM.

I too had a problem. iTunes wouldn't sync any photos nor list my iPhoto Albums.
I created a second iPhoto library and then added some photos and created several albums to see if iTunes could see the new iPhoto library. It did see the new library. I then started to add photos to it. I finally found the offending files - 4 .avi files - that for some reason when added to the library caused iTunes to balk. I removed the files and all is well. I even have other .avi files in the original library and iTunes responds normally - just those 4 caused the problem.

I have continuously over the last 6 months struggled with syncing my iphone and ipod with itunes The app continually crashes during the picture import. AND by the way it takes 10-15 minutes before it even attempts to import photos. The screen says importing photoes but doesnt try to optimize or anything for 10 minutes. I have a 3gs with 16Gb so its not a cheap phone. I have 10Gb free. I have 6600 photoes. This is very frustrating and undermines my confidence in your products. My ipod is an ipod 4 with 16Gb also. It does the exact same thing to it. The last time, I had to import photoes a few at the time and with it taking 10-15 minutes each time for 6600 photos it is a long frustrating process. But it will import every photo a few at a time. The error message is just that itunes has stopped working. no hint as to why. AND of course, my phone is out of use for the entire time. You guys must not want to believe ur phones are a necessary tool...or maybe you dont want the consumer to believe it is. I have tried to find solutions on your website as well as through other 3rd party communities. Ultimately they were of no use. I stumbled onto my solution by accident since Im a bit of a computer geek...a semi-geek.

I have this issue too, I went into my Windows event viewer. (should have looked at this a year ago when this started)
it said this

basically whenever I try to sync my ipod touch 4G 64GB it crashes iTunes when it begins the pictures. if im lucky ill get 4-5 on there before it stops responding. its not my system or anything im running win7x64 8GB DDR3 ram (Corsair XMS3) AMD FX Eight core processor.
It is silly that iTunes cannot add pictures to apple devices. it shatters whatever incline I may have to buy apple products. knda like the Airport Extreem router my dad bought the new firmware, caused my router to not function... why release firmware that breaks a product. -_- <-- off topic but still

New "Photos" is a piece of JUNK! How do I get my image numbers to display as imported like they used to? Can no longer make Events or view old events as before either.

If this is replacing Aperture and previous iPhoto it is USELESS...WAY fewer options for editing available. New "Photos" is a piece of JUNK!

Hi.
I have just migrated my library from Aperture to photos. All seems to have gone smoothly, except for one thing. All of my photos are 'untitled', whereas in both Aperture, and previously iPhoto, the filename was used for the title. If I hit CMD+I and get info, the title is still there as the filename, as I use the filename for all titles.
Is there a way to batch copy all filenames as photo titles, this was done automatically in Aperture and iPhoto, as when photos were imported the filename was used automatically.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

Most times when I import photos from my desktop or dropbox to iPhoto, iPhoto will keep the title I created for the image as the display title under the image. but occasionally it displays the filename instead and I have to go back through and reenter

most times when I import photos from my desktop or dropbox to iPhoto, iPhoto will keep the title I created for the image as the display title under the image. but occasionally it displays the filename instead and I have to go back through and reenter the title in iPhoto. why the inconsistency? running OS 10.9.5 and using iPhoto 9.5.1

Try this: select one of the photos that are showing the wrong title and use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Title to File Name menu option.
See if that will put the name that you want under the thumbnail.
