Photos from Photos app not accessible in iMovie 10.0.8

When using iMovie 10.0.8, Photos in the new Photos app are not showing up in the Photos heading in the library. Photos under the iPhoto heading are accessible.
Using OS X 10.10.3
Thanks for any help.

I finally figured this out. In Photos, select “Preferences”. There is a selection to “Use as System Photo Library”. Click on this to allow whatever photo library you are using when you opened Photos to be used in iMovie and other applications. You can always open Photos and use other libraries, but only the one you are using as the “System Photo Library” will be recognized by other applications such as iMovie and also, I believe, in iCloud.
Hope this will solve the mystery for you, too.

  • My iPad is logged into my iCloud account, but my wife's iTunes. I have uploaded video footage from my iPhone to my iCloud. It appears on the iPad but is not accessible in iMovie? What's the fix?

    You shouldn't have to change your iTunes account to not have to purchase it twice.  If your devices are using different iTunes IDs, just purchase it on one device, then import it to your iTunes library by connecting the device to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Once in iTunes, you should be able to sync it to your other device (assuming both devices are syncing with the same iTunes library).  (And even if they were syncing with separate libraries, you could use Home Sharing to copy the app from one library to the other.)
    Or, am I missunderstanding something?

  • Photos app not working with photoshop.

    Photos app not allowing me to add photos to photoshop.  Anyone else have this problem?  I can add photos from my home screen but not directly from photos app.  iPhoto allowed me to drag and drop them into photoshop but not the new photos app.  Any suggestions?

    Everyone has this problem. Apparently developers have to write extensions to hook into the new app. http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html is the place for feature requests and feedback

  • I photo app not responding

    i photo app not responding

    Try trash the
    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.
    If that fails
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • All of my photos did not transfer to imovie how can i get them all

    All of my photos did not transfer to imovie.  How can i get them all in Imovie?

    Sync with iTunes to recover these things.
    Connect the iPad to your compter and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side of iTunes and then click on the Apps tab. Go down through the list and select all of the apps that you want to put on the iPad. Do the same thing with the photos. Make sure that the headings - Sync Music and Sync Photos have been selected and then sync again.
    If you have changed the configuration - you will have to click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.

  • App "notes" - what do I have to do, if I want to send something from the app "notes" by one of my emails? a specific one

    App "notes" -
    what do I have to do, if I want to send something from the app "notes" by one of my emails? a specific one!
    Example:
    I have email 1, 2 and 3, and from the " notes"  I want to send an email, from the account 3! 
    How can I choose the email account, because it goes always with the name of the account 1.
    The only way I can do it, is erasing the name and put the other!

    Yes, that is how you do it.
    You can change the default email used in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.

  • Im going to restore my ipod touch(4th gen) to factory settings. my question is, how do i back up all notes from the app "notes" so they can be reinstalled? or is it allready backed up as per the main "back-up" ?

    im going to restore my ipod touch(4th gen) to factory settings. my question is, how do i back up all notes from the app "notes" so they can be reinstalled? or is it allready backed up as per the main "back-up" ? I know its a simple question, but i dont know the answer. please help.

    The iPod backup that iTunes makes includes Notes.and other app data. However, it does not included synced media like apps and music.
    Thus, just restore from backup with all your synced media in your iTunes library.

  • TS3391 why does my videos and photos does not show on iMovie APP that I have downloaded on iPhone4S 16GB with iOS6?

    I need help, do I need to free up some space on my phone's memory so it will show on the application window? thanks!!!

    IMovie iOS edits video from the photos app.
    So you need to get video into the camera roll or a photo album.
    There is numerous techniques in this forum how to do this, and what format the video needs to be in.

  • Photo app not showing chunk of photos from 2009 to 2013 (says it's "downloading")

    For some reason when I click on the photos tab it says downloading below my most recent picture. When I scroll up it will show me back to april 29th of 2013. Then there is a large gap between 2013 and 2009 and there are image placeholders there. When I zoom out into the Years option I can see this better. Then there's a string of photos waaaaay back in 2012 (or there about). Why are these placeholders there and not my pictures?
    I know there have been changes to the photos app but I haven't changed anything on my phone, downloaded any new apps or deleted anything that would have caused this. Any help would be appreciated.
    I'm also including a screenshot of what I'm talking about.

    Just found PhotoUpLink which allows you to send the full quality images to your email. What's quite good is that it allows you to select more than one image to send together. Not exactly what I was looking for, but does the job much better than the current Apple (non tethered) method.

  • 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.

  • Old photos are not accessible in Messages in iOS 8

    I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 8 and the problem that I have is that the old photos received via iMessage are not accessible anymore. It just shows them as "?" in the Messages. Also in the "Details" view of the Messages they just appear as blank icons. I should clarify that the issue that I am facing is different from the one explained in:Messages Photos Not Showing: iOS 8 on iPhone 6. I do not have any problems with new messages/photos. The problem is with most (not all) of old Photos received in Messages.
    Also, I recently purchased an iPhone 6 which I used iCloud backup to transfer data from my old iPhone 5, and I have the same problem with the new iPhone as well.
    I'd appreciate if anyone could help me with this problem.

    There is nothing wrong, at least the way that I understand it. When the camera roll reappeared in iOS 8.1, the photos that were in the camera roll were returned to your device again. Those were the photos that were there before you uodated to iOS 8. Users that have opted to particiapet in the iCloud Photo Library Beta do not have the camera roll.
    IF you delete a photo from the camera roll and the photo exists in another album that you created on the iPad, then the photos will be deleted in those albums as well since the photos never existed in those albums to begin with. Those albums only contained pointers to the original photos which made them appear in the albums that you created in the photos app.

  • The New Photo App Not Syncing Properly

    I've been pulling my hair out over the last week or so with the new Photo's in the iCloud and how the online database won't sync properly.
    This is how I went about the upgrade.
    I have a Mac Mini which has been for the past several years drawing down my family's photo's and video etc from all out devices using iPhoto. This has worked very nicely. I've been adding pictures from my stream into albums etc with about 200 or so. All files are stored locally of course in organized folder which is then back up on to a external drive.
    After the latest update I opened the new Photo app and it started to convert my library over and started to upload all the photos, some 15000 pictures and a few hundred videos. I started to check my iPad and iPhone which is where I started to see problems, missing albums, missing photos, duplicates etc. Before anyone asks I emptied my trash in iPhoto before I updated as I had read about the new app pulling all the photos from trash in too.
    After several days of stopping and starting my iPhone and iPad looked like it should with my albums and the correct amount of files. I checked the online iCloud Photos through my browser which also match, but I had all the old iPhoto months and daily libraries still showing despite me organizing my libraries not to group the photos in these old style albums.
    At this point I also looked back on my Mac Mini to find that all the libraries had totally disappeared and there seemed to be a couple of thousand files missing, ie my ipad, iphone and online coun which is at something like 15,634 files and the Mac Mini Photo app was showing about 13,450. Plus, it was now saying uploading some 24,000 files but was in fact doing nothing.
    At this point I decided to turn my main iMac on and see if I could get the databases to pull down from the iCloud to see if it matched. Three days later it's stuck at some 3200 files and saying it's still adding 15,000 files. I then went back on to my Mac Mini and started a fresh version of Photo and it's now stuck in the same state as the iMac saying it's adding file but nothing is changing.
    Please help.

    How did you import the photos?
    Are the missing photos perhaps referenced? Then they cannot upload to iCloud.
    You can check with a smart album, if you have any photos in the library, that cannot upload to iCloud.

  • Photo Apps not working

    The Photo Apps  with my brand new iPAD2 is not working.
    1 . I tried synching pictures using iTunes as explained in the IPAD pdf User Guide and always get
    the following message:
    "certain pictures were not copied to the iPAD because it is impossible to display them (translated from french);
    no matter the pictures sise, the number of pictures in the folders on my computer, I always end-up with this message and only one picture in the Photos folder.All my pictures are in .jpg format; none of the picture I tried are corrupted and no photo organization software`.
    As suggeste I also erased the "ipod photo cache" from my computer and tried to re-synch again.The message came back.
    2. I tried using the SD attachement; nothing happens after inserting the SD card
    3. I tried  using my camera with the USB attachment and my camera USB cable; the Ipad2 posted the following message: (Translated from french):
    "this device cannot be used. The equipment connected is not supported"(Sony DSC-H1 with memory stick);
    Am I missing something ? or my IPAD2 is flawed ?
    using: IPAD2 4.3.2 ; itunes 10.2.2 ; Win7

    I have this issue but didn't recognize it until I read your post. I thought it was 2 bad photos.
    I'll subscribe to this tread to see if anyone comes up with a fix.

    Either I would

    • convert it into streamingDV .dv or AIC and use this.
    AND - my read 24fps - I would convert this to PAL 25fps or to NTSC 29.97 (if for US) by JES_Deinterlacer.
