My iPhone 4s won't load photos into the iPhoto libary so I can't take any photos off of my phone. How can i get it to work?

I really need to get the photos off my phone but it wont load onto iphoto. its using up the space in my phone and i want to keep the photos, how can i load them to my computer?? please help

Hi, I just had the same problem with mine.  It would only turn on when plugged into wall charger but would not stay on for long when plugged in.  It also said I needed to restore and I had no wifi or cell service. I took to Verizon and they said I needed to restore but i would loose all saved data.  I did not want to loose all pics and contacts so I took to a place that repairs Iphones in my city. They took one look and said had a bad charging port.  They said they could replace it so that I could then back up all data on my computer before I had to restore.  Suprisingly to them, once they replaced the port and put a new battery in, it all worked fine again; even wifi and cell service.  The fix cost about $60.00 and I did not loose any data! I have ever posted to any online forums before but had to on this because I want people to know that they don't always have to loose all data!!!

  • I cant seem to open some photos on Iphoto. I downloaded like 3 months ago from my phone into the iphoto. I could access ALL of my photos back then but when I try and access them now I cant seem to open the file

    I cant seem to open some photos on Iphoto. I downloaded like 3 months ago from my phone into the iphoto. I could access ALL of my photos back then but when I try and access them now I cant seem to open the file. When i open iphoto and open the folder thats on it, i can see ALL the photos that are there but when I click on different ones some appear in the larger screen but A LOT of them dont appear. Iphoto seems to have erased the file or I dont know.
    Also I tried clicking on the photo that doesnt appear and making it "Reveal it on finder" - "original file" and it says 'The operation can’t be completed because the item can’t be found.".
    I really want those photos because they involve a really special family vacation, please help me find those photos

    A LOT of them dont appear.
    What do you see in the window when you click on those?  A blank, black window?  An exclamation mark?  What?

  • Despite adding more storage = 20GB my devices tell me that I can not take any photos/video, why would this be?

    Despite adding more storage = 20GB my devices tell me that I can not take any photos/video, why would this be?

    Because the issue is that you don't have sufficient available space on your phone, not that you don't have enough space in your iCloud account.  Adding storage in iCloud does not give you more space on your phone.
    You can check your available space by going to Settings>General>Usage.  You'll need to delete or sync some data off your phone to freee up more space.

  • Does iPhoto copy photos into the iPhoto library or move them in?

    I moved about 40GB of photos onto my Macbook when I bought it.  It looks like iPhoto duplicated them because the iPhoto library is about the same size as the folder in my finder.  Does it copy photos into the library rather than move everything?

    Would there be anything in iPhoto that it may not have copied?
    It will only have imported (and copied) only those things you told it to.
    is there anything in iPhoto that won't be somewhere else on my hard drive?
    Anything that was imported directly - from a camera, for instance.

  • HT5934 How do I stop this update uploading to my mobile? Because I can't take any photos at all and the update is using up every inch of my mobile's space,not allowing me to keep all of my photos even though I've not got that many on there in the first pl

    How do I stop updates uploading on my mobile please? Because I cannot take any photos at all on it as the iOS update program 7.0.3 is hogging up every inch of my mobile's space, not allowing me to keep my photos even though I've not that many anyway. Help?

    Turn off Wifi in settings and then turn it on again; this will pause your device's update from updating.
    To stop automatic updates of applications, go to settings, Itunes&appstore, scroll down to automatic downloads and turn off updates
    Hope I've helped

  • Do I *need* to open iPhoto to get Photostream photos into the iPhoto library?

    Hi all,
    I don't really use iPhoto that much but since I started using my iPhone 4S as my principle out-and-about camera rather than lugging my DSLR everywhere I have started using it to archive all my mobile snaps using Photostream so that there's one less reason to physically connect my phone to my iMac.
    The problem I have is that because I don't have much other reason to launch iPhoto I occasionally forget to do so for over a month which means there's a gap in the images that are downloaded as Photostream only stores the last 30 days (or the last 1000 photos) in the cloud. This has happened at least once and it's a bit of a pain.
    I've created an iCal alarm on 'On My Mac' that launches iPhoto overnight once a week, and that's an acceptable workaround for me. However, I wondered if there is a way to have the Photostream constantly downloading to the iMac even when iPhoto isn't running, so that the app can officially import those when I remember to launch it even if I haven't for well over 30 days?

    No. iPhoto can't import if it's not running.
    Your solution with iCal is as good as any.

  • HT5043 My daughter was taking pictures in photo booth and now all of our photos from the iphoto library appear to be missing.  Any ideas how to recover them?

    Does anyone know how to recover or view pictures after importing photos from photo booth?  My daughter said that she was asked if she wanted to start a "new card".  Is this term familiar to anyone.  So sad to lose all our photos....

    Sorry - what exactly was done? iPhoto and PhotoBooth have no relation to each other -
    If she deleted the iPhoto libreary in error then take it out of the trash and put it back in the pictures folder - if the trash has been emptied then restore your backup of the iPhoto lbiarary - that is what backups are for - to protect against mistakes and failures

  • I'm looking at older photos but the sliders are from Lightroom 4 and not my current Lightroom 5 sliders.  How do I get the photos to work on Lightroom 5 editing?

    I was looking at some old photos from 2012 but when I clicked the files (.dng) instead of opening with the sliders for LR5, it opened sliders for I believe LR4.  How do I get those older photos to open under LR5 sliders and not older versions of LR?

    tma654 wrote:
    Sorry, not so good great at LR.  Do you have pics or something visual to show how this is done?...Do i have to switch each photo's process version or is there a way to do a whole batch of them?
    The quickest way to update just one photo is to click the lightning bolt icon under the histogram in the Develop module. This can be more convenient than scrolling all the way down to the Calibration tab.
    A quick way to update a whole batch of them is to select any number of them in Grid view, and then choose Photo > Develop Settings > Convert to Current Process. The AutoSync way works too, as long as you remember to turn it off immediately after you're done.
    Like JimHess suggests, I don't automatically convert them all at once, but on a case by case basis because they don't always look better after conversion. The benefits of the new process version can potentially make them look better, but you usually have to do a few more adjustments to get them there. If you don't have time to do that yet but you need to use the existing images soon, leave them in the old process version for now.

    Restoring your phone as a new device, not from backup, one way to completely remove this data or Settings>General>Reset>Erase All content & settings. Until overwritten, this stuff will come up in a spotlight search.
    If you really want to kill this stuff, get this app & run it after you do the above:

  • HT201302 When I connect my iphone to my computer, the camera wizard says that there aren't any pictures on my device.  How can I then transfer the pictures on my phone to the computer?

    This happens on PCs running XP and 7.

    I had this problem too, and this answer to a similar question on the forum about an ipod or ipad fixed it for me:
    "You have to unlock your iPad before you can transfer photos off it otherwise anyone could connect your iPad to a computer and see all the photos you have taken on it."

    The app has nothing to do with tracking the iphone on which it is installed.  It only allows you to find your other devices from your iphone.

  • My iPhone 4S won't load email messages from my local carrier. It works sometimes and then won't.  The local carrier says it is not them and to contact apple.  Been happening since got Kindle Fire. Could this be doing it?

    My iphone  4S  won't load email messages from my local carrier on a regular basis.  It says cannot get mail in use on another device.  I thought everything was to sync together?  Local carrier tells me it is Apple not them.  It's been happening since I got my Kindle Fire about a month ago.  Any ideas how to make everything work together?????  Does it when kindle is off to sometimes.  Thanks.

    Hi Maquillage,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would recommend troubleshooting the iPhone by following the instructions in this article:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
    Resolution
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    Cheers,
    - Ari
