Problem getting photos from AOL

I use AOL as my ISPer, using their AOL X software . Many of my PC friends send me photos which I would like to put into iPhoto v.6.0.1. I have no problem if they send the photo as an attachment that I can download to my harddrive, then put into iPhoto. My problem is that they seem to always send the photos in the ‘message’ (or body) of the e-mail. Friends using Comcast are the worse, they can’t seem to be able to send a photo as an attachment. I have tried several methods, even taking a picture of the photo, but after all that work, the quality isn’t good. Does anyone know of a method that I can ‘SAVE” (or import) a photo from the message area of an AOL e-mail? I would appreciate any help as it’s driving me up the walls. Thanks.

  • Problem getting photos from canon powershot

    Just recently I have not been able to get photos from my SanDisk card. When I put the card into my HP Photosmart printer, either nothing happens or I get an error message on the printer. I have an iMac (intel) and I recently upgraded everything to Snow Leopard.
    I then thought to bypass the printer altogether and go straight from the camera to the computer, but then I get a message "failed to initiate" . . . any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    Oh, I made a mistake: the message I get is "failed to initialize program"

  • How to get photos from txt msgs into gallery, and to my home pc

    I have no problem getting photos from Gallery into my home PC (Windows 7) using the USB cord.  I cannot figure out how to save a photo which has been sent to me via txt msg.  tried the bottom left menu, and nothing there to help.

    Try doing a long press directly over photo, see if it brings up a menu of options to do to the attachment/photo. One should be  "Save to storage" or something like that.

  • How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library?  It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library.

    How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library?  It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library.  I watched it upload about 400 photos, one by one.  They're somewhere, but they don't appear in the iPhoto library. As iPhoto was deleting them from my camera, it got hung up, then a message came "you should eject before disconnecting a device."  I hadn't touched the camera.  The message came by itself.  I couldn't get iPhoto to respond, so I disconnected the camera and did a Force Quit.  Opening it back up, the pictures were gone.  Can somebody help me? 

    What version of iPhoto are you running?  Assuming it's iPhoto 9 or later Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found. Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

    I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error, "iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found". Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

    Try here:
    iTunes: Unable to sync photos
    Usually deleting the iPod Photo Cache Folder works. Note that if you sync via the folder method, make sure you dlete all the ifolders since :
    The iPod Photo Cache stores the photos that are optimized for display on your iPod, iPad, or iPhone. The location of this folder depends on the syncing options you select. In iTunes, if you change the selection in the “Sync Photos From” pop-up menu, a new iPod Photo Cache folder will be created (and the previous folder will remain).

    Hi People!
    Please help...I want to know how can i get photos from ipad to the computer, that were synchronized previously to ipad but from another pc that i dont have access anymore and these pics are now only found in this ipad and no other place.

    Hi Alan,
    Thanks for the help, but i've actually done that before.
    It does not help, because it only shows the photos on the camera roll and do not show the photos synchronized with that pc that i dont have access anymore.
    The photos/albums all appear on the ipad, i can see it without problems but i cant get them out of the ipad to save onto pc for backup.
    And i reaaly need it, as it is the only place that i actually have these photos now...

  • DNG conversion fails sporadically with Get Photos From Camera

    Camera: Canon 40D and 5D
    XP SP2
    CS3
    Bridge 2.1.1.9
    ACR 4.4.1
    DNG Converter 4.3.1
    Importing my files to Bridge using the Get Photos from Camera (GPFC) option results in sporadic DNG conversion failure. There's no pattern, just a lump of files that don't get converted at the end of the process. It's very frustrating because I have to manually go back and find the files that failed and use GPFC option again. Even then sometimes it fails again!
    I'm attached to using the GPFC option instead of the standalone DNG converter because GPFC lets me automatically make a backup file to another disk and adds a template. But even when I use DNG Converter to import the files off my card, DNG fails for some of the files. Purging the cache only works half the time and for some of the files.
    Is there any solution to the GPFC problem? I've seen people have similar problems, but with no real conclusions...
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Ramon,
    No, I have tried purging/refreshing before and it doesn't help, because the un-converted CR2 files are just skipped over and put in the same destination folder as the successfully converted CR2 files (to DNG). I thought it might be a memory issue, but I never have any other applications open. As a test, I purposely opened some other applications to see if MORE CR2 files would be skipped, but the amount of files skipped was still random.
    My "DNG Conversion Settings," accessed through the Get Photos From Camera dialogue, is set to:
    Jpeg Preview: Medium Size
    Compressed (Checked)
    Preserve Raw Image (Checked)
    Embed Original Raw File (UN CHECKED)
    Could some of my Edit>Preferences>Cache options be overloading things and causing skips? I use the default settings because I wasn't confident with messing around with the cache.
    Thanks

  • Since installing LION having problems getting photo images to upload?

    since installing LION having problems getting photo images to upload? anyone else havie this problem? I did finally get a message that the format was wrong, but I have changed nothing on my camera. Only change was the installing of LION.

  • Problem Importing photos from camera to iPhoto

    Help. For a while I had no problems importing photos from my camera now I get the following error message:- /private/var/folders/CC/CC5eraW2GGCddoAX3DUGjE+TM/-Tmp-/iPhoto/PICT1015.JPG
    Does anyone know what this means? What I have done to my computer to cause this? and how to fix it. Thank you.

    Sam
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Launch Image Capture (in your Apps Folder) and use it to move the pics to the desktop. Then try import from there.
    If that works, then use your camera to reformat your card, and see if that works in the future.
    Regards

    Try disabling Norton and syning.  If that doesn't help try uninstalling iTunes and all of its components by following this guide: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7, then reinstall iTunes.  You must follow this guide exactly or it will not be successful.  Note: uninstalling iTunes will only remove the application; it will not touch your iTunes library or data.
    If you continue to have trouble you can use an app like PhotoSync to wirelessly transfer your photos to your computer while you continue to try to troubleshoot this.

    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • Problem getting photos

    I insert my card reader into the USB port.  The path for the photos is into my C: drive.  The pictures are successfully shown in Organizer and in fact are in the C: drive.  Now comes the problem;  I click on each photo in Organizer, and Elements 6 cannot locate the file.  When I did a metadata on the picture it shows a different path, into my H: drive which is my external hard drive where my photos are backed up.  As you can imagine, I will be happy to hear the solution so I thank you in advance.

    I took a screen shot placed  it into wordpad but was not able to copy and paste into this email.
    What appears is as you have below with the exception of the first line "C:>volumeid c: 66de-00da" and the last line "Volume ID for drive c: updated to 66de-00da"
    On the command line I enter the path and  "volumeid h:  f828-50df  g: 595b-27b7"  and I get the response as I've just described.

    When you type the command:
    volumeid h: F828-50DF
    what exactly is the response?  It should look similar to:
    C:>volumeid c: 66de-00da
    VolumeID V2.01 - Set disk volume id
    Copyright (C) 1997-1999 Mark Russinovich
    Sysinternals - http://www.sysinternals.com
    Volume ID for drive c: updated to 66de-00da
    If it doesn't, either type in the exact response or post a screen shot.
    I forgot to mention that in c:\windows the file appears as volumeid and not volumeid.exe.
    That's because your Windows Explorer is configured (by default) to not show the extensions (e.g. ".exe").  It shouldn't matter.
    Next I have been attempting to run the psedbtool which is still on my desktop.
    You need to use Windows Explorer to navigate to the folder c:\psedbtool and then double-click "run.bat" (which may show up as simply "run").

  • HT4910 How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream?

    How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream? It seems it is supposed to do it automatically , but it does not.

    Photos are normally uploaded automatically as long as you are connected to wifi, have the camera app closed and have at least 20% battery life remaining.  (It doesn't require a manual iCloud backup first.)
    If yours are working, if you haven't already done so, try turning off photo stream, then turn it back on.
    Sometimes people have issues getting photo stream to work on their home wifi, even if other devices in the home seem to work fine.  To troubleshoot this as a possible cause, some things to try include:
    Power-cycling your router (unplug for 15 seconds, then plug back in), then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings, then rejoin your wifi network.
    See if there is a firmware update available for your router.
    Change the DNS settings in your router to Google's Public DNS (see https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using)
    As a diagnostic step, go to a public wifi hotspot and take a photo, then wait a minute or so to see if it appears in your My Photo Stream album on your phone.  If it does, this confirms that the problem is with your home wifi.
