New photos app crashes on file import from iPhone 6

Anyone else having a problem with a larger size import (1400+ pictures) from their iPhone to Photos?
Photos has crashed on me twice while trying to download pics from my iPhone.

Either try importing in smaller batches or try using Image Capture to upload the photos from your iPhone to a folder on the Desktop.  If that's successful you can import them in batches from the folder. There might be a damaged image file that is causing the crash. This way you can narrow down to which one it is (if that's what's causing the crash) with the incremental imports.

  • Does the new Photo app duplicate images on import (wasting drive space), or simply reference them like Picasa does?

    Picasa simply references the original images, and any edits you make to the images leaves the original unharmed. This is the grown-up way to manage images. iPhoto and all, I really mean ALL other photo apps make this mistake of duplication of images on import - but not Picasa. I had iPhoto crash numerous times because it could not handle a large number of images. Picasa is way better than any Apple app thus far - so I'm wondering - does this new Photo app make the same mistake as all the others except Picasa? If it does duplication on imports, then it's doing it wrong.

    Instead of instinctively condescending like a grouch, you could have simply replied with the right answer and made me look bad, instead you only made yourself look bad Terence The Devil.
    The real answer is that there is an option in the preferences that allows one to select whether to copy images in or just reference them.
    Under Importing all one has to do is Un-check the "Copy items to the Photos Library" setting.
    The only issue I have at this point is that it should be un-checked as a default.

  • Why won't the new Photos app accept JPG files from my Kodak Easy Share like iPhoto did?

    Why won't Photos accept JPG files from my camera like IPhoto did?

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
    I would note there is a long-standing issue between Kodaks and some versions of OS X - the workaround for that is to use a USB Card reader.

  • New computer, no backup, can I import from iphone?

    My computer crashed and unfortunately I don't have a backup of my iphone.  I downloaded Itunes to my new laptop and I'm afraid if I choose Sync I will erase all the contacts/apps/music on my iphone. Is this correct?  And if so how can I import all music at least from my iphone to itunes?  Will I lose all my phone numbers as well?
    Thanks.

    It will erase everything.
    No backup is not good.
    Authorize your computer for your itunes account.
    Connect iphone. DO NOT sync.
    Click File>Transfer Purchases
    Then put in at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer.  When you first sync, you should get the option to merge the data.  Choose it.
    Once everything is on the computer make a backup copy of your computer and always maintain it.

  • Can I import and open raw files on the new photo app?

    Hi,
    Can I import and open raw files on the new photos app on my ipad?  Does it convert it to jpeg automatically when you want to share them?
    Thanks.

    Clem is telling you to click on the View menu, move the pointer down to the item "Metadata," & from its choices make sure "Show Titles" is selected. Do this, then make sure you are in a view in the main window that shows one or more videos (or whatever) that you want to title. Click once on one of them, & if the separate Info window is not open, open that (on the Windows menu or command + i as a keyboard shortcut). In the Info window the top line will be "Add a Title."
    Click once on that & type your title.
    This works for any item, video or photo.

  • New photo app does not import all of my photos from iphoto library

    I have just installed  10.10.3 on my Macbook and the new photo app does not import all of my photos from iphoto library. I have about 3200 photos in the library and only 2300 are presented for import. I only have 1 library so I didn't choose the wrong one. Any suggestions?

    Upon closer inspection it appears that the missing photos are in a folder called IPhoto Library.  This folder is greyed out when I choose the import folder.
    When I use 'show package contents' it reveals the missing photos (below).  Why is my iphoto library so scrambled!  Thanks for any insight.

  • New Photos App - Can't Import Video from Digital Camera

    Hi, everyone.  I just "upgraded" to the new Photos app, but I'm finding that I can no longer import video from my Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5.  With iPhoto, this was never a problem.  All of the old videos I imported from this camera are there after migration, and are playable within the program.  Photos import just fine.  However, I get an error message for the videos (below).  I don't understand why I'm not able to import anything new from that device.
    I opened iPhoto to attempt an import and it worked just fine.  Any help is appreciated.  I'm running Yosemite 10.10.3 on an iMac 2010.  Thanks.

    Hi there Jermaster
    iMovie 3 does not support the camera you have. iM is a Digital Video (DV) editor. Cameras that record to mini DV tape is what is required. IM 3 does not support USB either. You need Firewire. The camera you have is a flash based Hard Drive camera. To get the video off this camera you'll need iM08 or 09.
    But it doesn't appear that the computer you have will support either of these versions.

  • How do I fix orientation of photos after they were changed after importing iPhoto library into new Photo app in Yosemite?

    When I switched over to the new Photos app in Yosemite v10.10.3 and imported my iPhoto library to it, random photos in my library had their orientation changed. Some are upside down and some are turned on their side. I have a huge photo library, so this is frustrating. Hoping I don't have to go in and fix each one. I tried rebuilding my library by lauching Photo holding down option+command, but that didn't fix anything. Please help! Mahalo!

    You do not have duplicate albums or photos.
    Photo Stream
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/photo-stream.html
    The Camera Roll is for photos/videos that were captured by your iPhone, and for a photo saved from a received email, MMS, or from a website. These photos are also placed in the Photo Stream to be synced with your computer and/or with another iOS 5 device. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
    All photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process are stored in the iPhone's Photo Library. The photos in the folders or albums below include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. The photos are not duplicated taking up double the storage space. This way you can view the photos in a particular folder or album below only by selecting the folder or album, or you can view all photos in all folders or albums be selecting Photo Library.
    This cannot be changed.
    Removing photos or folders/albums of photos from your iPhone that were transferred from your computer via the Tunes process is done in the same way - via the iTunes sync process.

  • New photo app not downloading from iCloud

    For some reason mid way through the month my photos in my photo stream stopped syncing to my Mac Book Pro since i installed the new photo app.  Anyone else have this problem?  Thanks!

    Lots of issues about this one!  I have uploaded 227 a whole week.  Partly due to local broadband speeds and I suspect  pressure on servers in USA.  It sees the whole world is uploading at once - perhaps because Apple launched photos!
    The advice I got from Apple was just to wait a couple of weeks for things to settle down.
    Keep turning off the upload each day if it affects broadband speeds.
    To address your specific question I thought mine had also stuck as nothing appeared to happen for days - then a few were uploaded.
