Need help uploading photos from iPhone to Macbook Pro?

So say I took a lot of photos on the iPhone, then I created several albums that contain a substantial amount of photos too. When I uploaded photos to the Mac using iPhoto, I noticed that all the photos got put together into one "Event" and the other albums in the iPhone were nowhere to be found. Is there a way to upload photos so that the "Camera Roll" gets an "Event" and the other albums get their own respective "Events"?
What I want to know is how to upload photos so that each iPhone camera album appears as a separate "event" in iPhoto. Please help and thanks in advance.

Per the iPhone User Manual, I don't believe you can do what you're inquiring about.
Among other things, it clearly states albums on the iPhone are not transfered to iPhoto as such.

    By albums are you referring to albums in iPhoto on your iPhone.  Only photos in the Camera Roll get imported into the iPhoto library when connecting the iPhone to your Mac.

  • Help transferring photos from iPhone to macbook

    when i switched from the 4s to 5s i transferred all of the pictures from the 4s onto a windows laptop, then transferred the pictures from the laptop onto the 5s. now my 5s is almost out of storage, and i was wondering if it was possible to transfer the old pictures onto my macbook and then delete that album from the phone. also the album of pictures from the computer doesn't have the delete option when you go to edit albums.

    If you still have the windows laptop your best option is to get the photos from there. If the only copies of the 4s photos that you have are now on the 5s (placed there by using iTunes to sync from the Windows computer) then you will either need to email them to yourself or use 3rd party software such as http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php to salvage them from the 5s.
    Once you have safely recovered the 4s photos that were transferred to the 5s via iTunes sync, you can remove them from the 5s by syncing with iTunes using the following instructions from iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support . Note that if the original computer isn't available you may first need to sync a few new photos from your current computer using iTunes and then sync again to delete them using the following instructions.
    To delete synced photos and videos from your device
    In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
    Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
    Click Apply.

  • Importing Photos from iPhone to Macbook Pro

    I was importing photos from my iPhone to my Macbook and I accidentally unplugged the USB while the photos were being imported. When I try to plug my phone back in and import the photos again, a message pops up saying that "photos are being imported", even though no photos are appearing. I have tried to shut down and restart my computer, but I am not allowed to do either because iPhoto won't let me ("photos are being imported"). Any suggestions on how to import photos?

    Apple Menu -> Force Quit to force iPhoto to quit.

  • Need Help Transfering Video From HV20 to Macbook Pro

    I've lloked everywhere and I can't find the process to transfer my video from my HV20 to my Macbook Pro.
    Can some one please point me in the right direction?
    Thanks in advance.

    Do you have the necessary firewire cable? USB will not capture your video to your Mac. With that, it's a simple matter of hooking the cam up to the Mac, with cam off, Mac on. Open iMovie and have your cam set on playback. Then turn on the cam and your Mac should present you with the import button.

  • Uploading pictures from iPhone to macbook pro.

    hello, I don't know if I'm doing anything wrong here. But how do I upload pictures that I have taken with my iPhone onto my computer?
    Thanks again for all the help.

    You're MBP may not be set up to automatically launch iPhoto when the iPhone (or a digital camera) is connected. If you have iLife '08, the setting for that is in iPhoto Preferences. If you have iLife '06, the setting is in Applications > Image Capture > Preferences.

    The following link has 2 methods for importing photos to a Mac (not counting Photo Stream). Are you using iPhoto or Image Capture?

    I'd like to transfer the photos from iPhone to MacBook Air. My iPhoto used to detect my iPhone automatically, but it doesn't happen anymore. How could I fox this? Thanks for helping!

    Check the iPhoto preferences:
    From the main menu bar:  iPhoto > Preferences > General:
         "Connecting camera opens"  : Set this option to  "iPhoto".
    If that does not help, disconnect your iPhone and reset your iPhone.
    To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • HT204144 File transfer using Airdrop from iphone to Macbook Pro

    File transfer using airdrop form Macbook Pro to iphone is working...but from iphone to Macbook Pro is not working, Why?

    Hi Brok25;
    Thanks for the question.  The resource below explains the specs and settings that are needed for AirDrop.  Check the settings and look to see if your MacBook Pro is listed.
    Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203106
    Sending files to and from an older Mac
    If a Mac you're using with AirDrop was manufactured before 2012, you can send and receive files with other Mac computers.
    On the sending Mac, click "Don't see who you're looking for" in the AirDrop window.
    Select the option to "Search for an Older Mac."
    On the receiving Mac, open a new Finder window and click AirDrop in the sidebar.
    Tips for sending files
    Make sure Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are enabled on your Mac and your iOS device. Although you don't have to connect to a specific network, Wi-Fi needs to be on to send and receive files using AirDrop.
    Move your devices closer together. AirDrop is designed to work within a range of approximately 30 feet (9 meters). If you need to send a file to someone farther away, consider using File Sharing, iCloud, or email instead.
    If you're using a firewall on your Mac, you won't be able to receive AirDrop files if you have enabled "Block all incoming connections" in the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences.
    Make sure your devices meet system requirements for AirDrop.
    System Requirements
    To see if your Mac works with AirDrop, make sure you’re in the Finder by clicking the desktop (the background area of your screen), or by clicking the Finder icon in the Dock. Then, check to see if AirDrop is listed as an option in the Go menu. If you don't see AirDrop listed, your Mac doesn't support this feature.
    In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
    your iOS device needs to include a lightning connector 
    your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed
    your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model with OS X Yosemite installed
    Your Mac and iOS device both need bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. You do not have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network. 
    To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need the Mac models listed below with Wi-Fi turned on and OS X Lion or later installed.
    MacBook Pro (Late 2008 or newer)*
    MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 or newer)*
    iMac (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
    *The MacBook Pro (17-Inch Late 2008) and the white MacBook (Late 2008) do not support AirDrop.
    For help identifying your Mac, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu. You can refer to the Apple Support website to find out if your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch includes a lightning connector. 
    Cheers,
    - Judy
