Picture Files staying in iPhone after import to Photos for Mac

After I connect my iPhone to my Mac, Photos asks to import. So I imported the photos. If I didn't ask to erase, Photos continues asking you to import the same pictures. In iPhoto I didn't have this issue. Any comments or suggestions? I am duplicating files unnecessarily.

I don't see an easy way to delete previously imported items, but these step worked for me. Be careful to make sure you do have copies of all these photos before you decide to delete them again!
1. Check the 'Delete items after import'.
2. REIMPORT all the 'Already imported' items.
3. Open the 'Last Import' album, and delete all those photos.
For your Secondary question, when the "Open Photos for this device" box is checked, that means when you plug in that iPhone, the Photos app will open up automatically.

Empty Event Folders on OS Devices after upgrade to Photos for Mac

I recently upgraded to Photos for Mac and did the same on my iPhone and iPad. Even though some my iPhoto Events have synced, most have not. What is the reason for this error? Also, How can I add pictures from the Photos for Mac application to my OS Devices?

Events and Albums are not the same thing in iPhoto. Iphoto Events are converted to Albums when you migrate to the new app. Using iCloud library is probably the best way to access these on your iOS devices.

Can I delete/remove files from my iPhone after importing into LR?

Stoked to be able to pull photos and video from my iPhone via LR and skip iPhoto. But it didn't give me the option to 'move' the photos just to copy them. So now I have them all on my laptop but need to delete them from my iPhone to make more room. Deleting on the iPhone is a tetious one by one (checkmarking them) process. Any ideas?

It can't be done by any LR option. You can do it be means of a script, and Rob Cole (often posts here) has written one. Not sure if he's made it available to others.
This has been much discussed, and you'll find a strong polarisation between people like Rob, who think it remiss of Adobe not to include "move" as an option, and people like me that think it a dangerous feature, and shouldn't even be an option!

Accessing folders/events that were in iPhoto After Upgrade to Photos for Mac

I had 82 events/albums in iPhoto. What is the best process to access these folders on all my OS devices in Photos for Mac?

Photos Gone after Upgrade to Photos for Mac

I recently upgraded to Photos for Mac. I just opened it for the first time. Out of the hundreds of photos I used to be able to view, only four appear. What happened? What do I do to see all the photos Icould see previously?

Did you complete the migration process from iPhoto Library to the new Photos Library? Did you migrate your main iPhoto Library?
Where exactly are you looking that makes you think not all photos migrated? You might be looking at Albums, not individual images (they kind of look similar).
Double-click to open the Photos or All Photos albums to check the total number of photos you have. It's displayed either on the very bottom of the screen or in the tool bar. Compare that total to what iPhoto has in its library (iPphoto is still located in your Applications folder and remains fully functional).

How do I eject iPhone after import to iPhoto?

You don't need to eject the iPhone after importing, if it has vanished from iPhotos's source list in the sidebar. Then it has been dismounted.

Why are my legira hfm36 files so much bigger after import to iMovie?

Hello
When i import files from my camcord legira hfm36 the files become much lagrer after import... :-/
What is wrong, i use 32gb sdhc card in cam and When i import it All it Will take 270 gb space??? Why...
Palle

AVCHD which is likely the format you are shooting in create a .mts or .m2ts file that is highly, highly compressed as it is saved onto the camera. When it is decompressed and imported into iMovie it can expand up to between 40+ and at a max 75 Gbytes for each hour of video shot. So there's no free lunch when you shoot High Definition video on the typical AVCHD video cam, the space available you have to expand those video clips is going to evaporate very quickly. So consider purchasing an external USB hard drive as quickly as possible.

Photos for Mac stuck importing photos from iPhone

I recently upgraded to Photos for Mac from Aperture. Upgrading the library went fairly smoothly. On my first attempt to import photos from my iPhone 6, Photos is now stuck in the import process.
The import tab (device selected) shows the following:
Already imported (2,509 items)
New items (442 items)
No thumbnail images are visible (just the default grey squares indicating items)
At the top of this screen is an import progress bar that has not shown any progress. This progress indicator says "Importing 442 items" but the bar itself remains grey; I'm assuming there would be either a black or colored indicator showing some progress when the import process is working correctly.
After about an hour with no indication of progress, I selected the "Stop Import" option, with no noticeable results. I tried clicking the Stop Import button several more times, still with no results. Let things be for about five minutes, with no change in status. The import still seems stuck; clicking the stop button does nothing.
Next, I quit the Photos application. An error sheet appears: "Do you want to continue importing? Photos is currently importing files. If you quit the import task will be canceled." I select "Quit".
Now Photos gets stuck closing the library. All app windows close except for a tiny square that says: "Closing the library..." The library does not close and I run out of patience waiting for it to do so and force quit the application.
I am using a 27-inch late-2009 iMac
8GB memory
2.66 GHz Intel Core i5
177GB storage space available
Photos 1.0
Photo library is approx. 107GB

Update: Force Quitting and restarting the app apparently solved whatever was preventing importation of photos from the iPhone.

It seems like the settings of leica t is not be kept.
I want to keep the settings of leica t, just like the preview in the import dialog!

Can't be done.
What you see when you first open a file in Lightroom is the jpeg preview from the camera that's embedded in the Raw file: after a few seconds Lightroom generates its own preview, with the effect you describe.
There's no way round this - you'll have to adjust Lightroom's settings to resemble the in-camera results you want, and save the settings as the new defaults.

From Photos for Mac, how does one delete imported iphone photo?

IPhoto had this feature where when after it has imported all of my iPhone photos, it would ask me if I want to delete the imported photos from my iPhone. Also, it has a button to delete all photos from my iPhone if I choose to. Does anyone know if this very nice feature is still available in the new Photos for Mac?
I really like this feature to clear all of my photos with one click, instead of having go thru one by one.

HT204655 My photos won't import into Word for Mac after OS X upgrade

After upgrading to the new OS X Yosemite does anyone know how to import photos into Word or Excel for Mac? That library is now grayed out for me and I am in mid-project on Word. I used to be able to copy and paste right into my document, now it seems I must exclusively work within the Photos program.

I actually found that the issue started for me after the MS Office update last week. It was originally working fine with the new Photos for Mac App until the MS Office update. Now Word can't find the photo browser, it only shows Photo Booth. I also can't drag drop photos from the Mac App into Word, like I used to be able to. At the moment I export the photos to a directory then I can input from file in Word. That works, but it's a bit untidy.
I'm thinking off trying the Office 2016 for Mac, which are available now as demos. Unfortunately Microsoft don't reply to questions that are raised, so I'm not sure what the underlying issue is with photo's not working.

How do I stop my wife's iPhone from importing her photos to my iPhoto account on my laptop?

How do I stop my wife's iPhone from importing her photos to my iPhoto account on my laptop?
I set it up to do this a couple years ago but I forgot exactly how I did it. Now I need to know how to stop it.
What version of iPhoto? v9.6
Of the OS? 10.10.1
How are you importing photos? The photos (camera roll) from my wife's iPhone 5 syncs via wifi to my iPhoto account on the the laptop. This happens when she logs on to the laptop. We do not use the same Apple ID.
Like I said, I did this a couple years ago. I totally forgot how I did it and what method (iTunes settings?, Mac settings?, iPhone setting?) I utilized.
I was over at the forum which deals with iPhoto but they feel it is an iCloud issue.

Understood.
What version of iPhoto? v9.6

Unfortunately that seems to be a known bug. And something we have to wait for APple to fix. THere are other threads on the same topic and some people have work arounds so you might want to poke around in the 'more like this' on the right.
