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"

Is there a way to import photos from Canon Powershot S45 after downloading Yosemite?

Is there a way to import photos from a Canon Powershot S45 after downloading Yosemite?

I was reading another post yesterday about a Canon PowerShot S40 owner who previously used Image Capture to bring the images into the computer. They reached out to Canon and were returned a response stating that the drivers weren't compatible for OS X Yosemite. The best bet would be a card reader. The JPEG files are still going to be the same, but connecting with a USB cable directly to the camera isn't feasible any more. Head to the nearest Best Buy and pick up a USB card reader and you'll be able to see your pictures in Finder and can then import them to iPhoto or wherever you keep your pictures.

Problem Importing photos from Canon Rebel XTi -- Iphoto '08

When I plug in USB cord to camera and MacBook, then turn on my Canon Rebel XTi, iPhoto opens up but will not read the CF card. The status light on the camera just blinks red as if it working on it but it never does show the photos in iPhoto08 and the camera doesn't show up on the sidebar either although it used to but doesn't anymore.
I know that my CF card is ok because when I use it in my Canon Powershot S400 it works fine, and I'm able to import photos fine.
Help please?

Thanks, I'm fairly certain that WILL work since the card works with iPhoto in my other camera fine.
I don't have a card reader and I'd like to figure out how to fix the problem I have with my Rebel XTi. Any suggestions on that?

IPhoto not responding when importing photos from Canon Powershot SD450

Recently I have been unable to import photos from my camera. I can see the thumbprints but when I try to import iPhoto hangs and has to be force quit? I am able to take the SD Card and insert it into an SD card reader, so there is no problem with the SD card.
The following message appears in the Console log:
10/28/08 1:56:53 PM iPhoto[61816] Error loading /Library/Contextual Menu Items/DocumentsToGoXCM.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DocumentsToGoXCM: dlopen(/Library/Contextual Menu Items/DocumentsToGoXCM.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DocumentsToGoXCM, 262): no suitable image found. Did find:

Anyone know if this DocumentsToGoXCM.plugin is related to the DocumentsToGo program for Palm PDAs (which I have)? And why would it be involved with iPhoto?

Sure seems like it.
And why would it be involved with iPhoto?
May not be.
I am able to take the SD Card and insert it into an SD card reader, so there is no problem with the SD card.
Can you import from it there?

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.

Importing photos from Canon PowerShot A710

I'm using iPhoto for the first time and can't import the pictures on my Canon PowerShot A710 digital camera. Is this camera incompatible with iPhoto?

Are you shooting JPEG? If so every camera is supported
are you shooting RAW - if so RAW is unique to each camera and then only these cameras are currently supported - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1475

Importing photos from Canon Powershot SX10IS

I know there is an issue with Canons Camera Window software and OS X 10.6.2, but I have a strange thing going on. I have an old Canon A530 and when attached to my Mac it opens Camera Window just fine and downloads with no problem. Does anyone know why this works, but when I attach my SX10IS I get the message "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.

I keep getting "camera not detected" every time I tried to download photos from my Powershot SD1000? I tried different USB cables and still didn't work,

Hi garyliban!
Please ensure that your camera's software is up to date. The older versions that came with your camera were out long before Windows 8, so they need to be updated to be able to work with Windows 8. Please click here to go to the download page.

IPhoto 6.0.5 can't import from Canon PowerShot A540

iPhoto 6.0.5 has a problem importing photos from a Canon PowerShot A540. The Import display comes up, then disappears then reappears, etc.. This error message appears every time on the console:
PTPCamera(271,0xa000cfc0) malloc: * Deallocation of a pointer not malloced: 0xa1b1c1d3; This could be a double free(), or free() called with the middle of an allocated block; Try setting environment variable MallocHelp to see tools to help debug
Anyone else see this?
20" iMac, 2 GHz Intel Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Here are some questions for you about your situation:
Do you get an icon on the desktop when you plug the camera in?
Do you have a USB card reader you could try in an attempt to isolate the camera as the cause of the problem?
Have you tried this on another computer?
Have you tried this on another user account on your computer?
What brand SD card do you have in the camera? (knock off brand memory can sometimes be problematic)

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

Can't get photos from iPhoto to iPod

My iPod software won't recognize my iPhoto library so I can't synch pictures. When I select the iPod Option to synchronize photos from iPhoto and do an iPod update, it doesn't transfer and photos from iPhoto and in fact it unchecks the synchronize photos option in the iPod software. I'm using a 60GB video iPod w/the current iPod software, iTunes 6.0.1, iPhoto 5.0.4 on an iMac G5, running OS X 10.4.3.

Archyeon:
Here's how to do it:
Getting Photos from iPhoto 5 to an iPod
create a special Album in iPhoto for the Nano and place those photos in it you want on the iPod.
connect the Nano to the Mac and when mounted in iTunes open iTunes' preferences and go to the iPod Photos section - Figure 1.
scroll down till you see the album and select it. If you don't want the full sized image files to be copied to the Nano do not select the Include full-resolution photos box.
close the preferences and when the syncing is completed dismount the Nano and then disconnect from the Mac.

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.
