Photos being imported are not importing
I have imported my photos to iphoto and I have the lates version. Since December each attempt I have made to import the photos it no longer keeps them there. What am I doing wrong? How can I recover these photos?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to > Force Quit, choose iPhoto and force close it. Then, open it again and import the photos

I cannot shut down my iMac (for days now) as I get the following message: "Photos are being imported to the photo library."
Now as far as I know there are no photos being imported and even if there were 5 days is crazy. How can I resolve this please?
JLB284Open Activity monitor in Utilities, go to the CPU tab>All Processes, and note any process that would appear to be related to importing photos, such as iPhoto, and use Force Quit. This may only be a temporary fix, as it may start all over again when you reboot. If that happens, we need to do some more investigating.
Also, close all open Applications, then open Terminal in Utilities and copy/paste and hit return, then post the output of this command.

can computer expert retrieve deleted videos and photo from and iphone 4 which the photos and video are not sync before? Are there any tools or software to retrieve it?

That means it is possible for sure there is a chance to retrieve back those photos and video.
No, there are no gurantees. The capabilitty exists to retrive deleted data from an iPhone, but like many things in life it is not 100% successful all the time. Be careful, there are a lot of scam artists out there. They take your money & retrive nothing. This guy is one of the best in the business, but he does not work for people in the private sector. Perhaps he can recommend a service to you. But, as already pointed out, you're looking at thousands of dollars out of pocket whether these folks are successful or not:

You cannot backup photos to iCloud.
You can enable Photo Stream (in Settings > iCloud) but only for 30 days and only a max of 1000 photos.
Then what does this mean? It was copied from the kb article that I posted above.
Reducing the size of your Camera Roll backup
If you take lots of photos and videos with your iOS device, you may notice your Camera Roll takes up most of your iCloud Storage backup. To check the size of the Camera Roll backup on your device:
On your Home Screen, tap Settings.
Tap iCloud.
Tap Storage & Backup.
Tap Manage Storage.
In the Backups section, tap your device.
In the Backup Options section, the backup size is displayed under Camera Roll.
To reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup, save your photos and videos locally to your computer with iTunes, and then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Camera Roll in Backup (see the "Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your Device" section above) orpurchase additional storage. -
Is there a way to retrieve pictures deleted from photo stream that are not yet on camera roll?
Is there any way to retrieve pictures deleted from photo stream that are not yet on camera roll? I used my iPhone for a camera and put pix on iPad through photo stream. But I didn't realize they were not on the iPad camera roll, and deleted them from the phone Photostream. Now they are gone. Any chance to find them in the cloud?
No, there is no re-cycling bin on the iPad. If you deleted them from the card, and you havn't yet re-used the card, then there may be recovery software that you can get for your computer that might be able to get them back.

I would be very appreciative if anyone could give me some advice!I have an IPad 2,I have previosly had no problem sending photos by email.But now for some reason photos I send are not successfully been sent. I'm not sure if I have changed a setting by mistake. Is there a particular Setting I should be concentrating on to making it successfully work again?Cheers!I look forward to hearing back from you!Aussie Fella!
is this how you send your photo?
Tap a photo, album, or event to select it.
Tap > Email.
Confirm or change the photos you want to share by tapping an option.
Select all the photos in an album or event: Tap All.
Select a range of photos: Tap Choose, tap Range, tap the first and last photos in the range, and tap Next.
Type the address of the recipient, add a message, and tap Send. -
I have IMac on Yosemeite, 500GB. IPhone 5 on 8.2. My photos, from iPhone, had not appeared via photo stream on my Mac. I had been away from a while But expected the photos to appear on the Mac. There were 1000 in Photostream and 1200 in Camera Roll. I used a cable to import the Camera Roll, it stopped importing after 1000 photos. The photos, though, are in iCloud and I don't know how to access them to put them to Events. There are 3 recent Photostream events showing up in IPhoto withOut any photos. I tried to import to Library but was directed to Finder and no access to iPhoto. I tried to shut down iPhoto but got a message telling me photos were being imported. That's 6 hours ago and I'm still getting the same message. I don't know what to do. I'm not an expert, just a user.
HHi, thank you for the reply. I have checked my iPad and iPhone and neither has iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled. Turned off in both. Photostream is turned on.
i tried to sort it out by dragging all the photos to Events on the Mac and then deleting them from iCloud - (left hand side of iPhoto under the section 'Shared'). the photos now show up in Events. I did force quit but the issue remains. The message reads ' photos are bing imported to the library. Please wait for import to complete.'
i can't empty iPhoto trash either. The message read "Delete error. Please wait for import to complete.'
WHen I was moving the photos to the Events I always had a message about duplicates - to the effect that the photos already existed, did I want to import them? I clicked on Yes, import all duplicates. But when it showed the images - duplicates side by side - one showed the photo and the other was blank.
I really don't know what to do! And I don't know how to handle my iOS devices. Is it to do with the large number of photos? Any help, advice appreciated. -
Photo Geo tags are not being used by Places
I have been importing photos into iPhoto with valid geo tags and none of the photos are being shown on the Places map.
When I initially starting using iPhoto I imported some pictures from my iPhone and realised that the pictures were identified on the Places maps automatically, since I have added photos and manually edited the location information directly in Places.
If I import pictures from my iPhone they are not entered into Places and if you check all the location information is blank, if you look at the extended information you can see all the correct GPS information...
I'm confused..in your iPhoto preferences is look up places set to "Automatically"? The default is "never" and it must be changed to "automatically" to work.

Some Photos in Library are not showing on iPhoto
I imported some photos from another Mac to my MacBook Air and organized them in several events. All went well until I had a large number of photos (and some videos) which took a long time to transfer and iPhoto was not responding for over an hour. I forced quit the iPhoto and now when I go back, I see the events that I had created but they are empty (photos are not showing). When I tried to re-import the photos, it says the photos are duplicate which I assume it means photos exist in the photo library. My question is how do I get the photos existing in the library to be visible on iPhoto. Thanks.
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

When I retouch photos, the changes are not synced to my iPad
Straightening and cropping chages are synced to my iPad, but when I just use the Retouch brush to remove dust or scratches, those changes are not synced.
I even removed all the photos from my iPad and reloaded all 25,000 (ugh) and the spots and scratches still are copied (even though they don't appear when I look at the version in Aperture). What's going on?John,
I hope you're still listening!
Since you have the ability to put your photos on your iPad, that means your previews are being generated at some point. However, your previews are not being updated. You can probably verify this by right-clicking one of your adjusted photos and selecting "Update Preview". If Aperture does not complain with a dialog, that means your preview was not up to date and Aperture updated it. Then, you should see your changes on your iPad (after syncing) and on anything that uses a media browser. (I usually check to see what my previews look like by browsing my Aperture library by "pretending" to change the desktop wall paper in System Prefereces or through the Apeture browser in iPhoto.)
Well, that will probably work. I have noticed a lot of problems generating and updating previews, though. For instance, if I have a preview with an adjustment, and then I make another adjustment (without updating the preview), my media browser shows the original version, somehow reverting from adjustment 1 merely because I made adjustment 2. Sometimes, no matter what I do, Aperture will not make new previews or update old previews (even when I tell it to) until some random time. Sometimes there are previews missing that were just there. I.e., it is buggy and I personally have not figured out a pattern. I urge you to provide Aperture Feedback if you find problem as well.
In any case, for any project there is an attribute called "Maintain Preview for Project". You can select this by selecting a project and the clicking the "gear" button in the upper right of the Inspector. With this on, Aperture should keep your previews up to date.
So, once your previews are up to date, iTunes should be able to determine what is different from one sync to the next and send the adjusted photos to your iPad. Be aware, though, that once the transfer of data is done, your iPad must reconcile the photos it received, so it may take a bit of time to see the photos.

When i print out a color photo the colors are not accurate
I have a new envy110 series CQ811A. I have a windows 7 64-bit laptop. There are no error messages and the Envy works great but when i print a picture off of a web site the colors are not accurate and i mean none of them. i have returned one printer already but this one is doing the same thing. i really like this printer but if it won't print the colors correctly i don't know what i will do. I also have a HP C4280 All In One Photo Smart and whatever is printed off the colors are great it just is not wireless. I have tried everything and nothing helps. Is there a solution
Hi easyneez5!
Sorry to hear it's not printing web pages so well.
I do have a suggestion, that may or may not align with the way your are used to printing web pages; HP has a new and improved application for printing web page content; HP Smart Print.
It's supported on IE (most versions) and can do some neat tricks: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/partner/microsoft/bing-bar-for-hp/smart-print.html
There are also other potential 'tweaks' you can try in the [Printing Preferences] / [Advanced]: Image Color Managment; You might try setting it from 'ICM Handled by Host System' (default) to 'ICM Handled by Printer' or even 'ICM Disabled'.
Again, this is merely a potential way to check to see if this helps get those colors right; and remember your settings before you change them.
Hope this helps
