Problem importing photos from PC, and charging via USB

Hi
I can't seems to import images from my Windows 7 computer to my new iPad via the USB cord. I'm using the latest version of iTunes.
The photos are in a designated folder in My Pictures. In iTunes I go to "Sync Photos From .." and chose the folder. Then click on Sync. iTunes says is it syncing the phoos and downloading, but the images are nowhere to be found.
What am I doing wrong?
By the way, I have another question: Why when the iPad is plugged into the PC is there a message beside the battery symbol that the iPad isn't charging?

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.

Problem importing photos from Extreme Pro SD Card

Sorry if this has been covered. I atempted to import photos from my new CF card via a Griffin card reader into my iMAC. Never had a problem before, but iPhoto won't respond and won't recognize the card. Was able to import to my wife's MacBook Pro with no problem. Any thoughts? Thanks

My appologies for wasting your time. The card reader has given up the ghost!

Problem importing photos from camera to Lightroom

I have Creative Cloud for Photographers, it´s installed on my iMac and my MacBook Air. I use Lightroom to import photos from the camera. A few days ago I wanted to import some photos to the MacBook, but after a while everything stopped, no photos were imported and after waiting quite some time I gave up. Tried again after a while but then got the message that the files couldn´t be read. It worried me a lot as I was afraid the memory card might have got damaged, but I tried to import the photos to the iMac instead and it was no problem. After that I have tried to import other photos from various cameras to the MacBook, but nothing works. To the iMac - no problem. I then tried to uninstall Lightroom, but it was not possible. In the Creative Cloud-app It is possible to uninstall Photoshop, no problem, but with Lightroom it says "cannot be uninstalled" - on both the iMac and the MacBook.
Since I will be traveling a lot in just a few days, it´s essential to have a Lightroom that works on my MacBook. I usually import photos from the camera several times a day, so without a LR that works, things will be much more difficult…
Any help will be much appreciated!

As I am not a Mac person, I cannot explain how to change permissions, but I'm sure your favorite search engine will find the instructions.
Sometimes, the destination folder where Lightroom writes the photos to has accidentally changed, and now you are pointing to a different fodler that doesn't have the proper permissions.

Problem importing photos from iPhoto

I want to import photos from iPhoto. I only want to import photos from two or three albums in iPhoto on my iMac. When I plug in the iPad Air, I choose sync from selected albums. I choose the albums I want to import from and click on "sync" or "apply". When the sync process gets to step 5, "importing photos", it stays on that step never able to proceed to step 6. Is this an iCloud problem? Thanks for your help.

I found out what the problem was. "iCloud Photo Sharing" was turned off on my iPad. Now everything is working great. I would have just deleted the inquiry, but I could not find out how to do that.

Problem importing photos from iPhone to PC

Recently I my computer hasn't prompted me to import photos from my iPhone to my computer. My iPhone is also not showing up in My Computer.
I have seen this topic discussed and answered for the Mac but I couldn't find any answer for the PC.
I have iTunes 9.1.1.12 and my iPhone 3GS is 3.1.3

I am also having trouble with this feature.
I have recently changed from an old XP machine to my new WIN7 machine and the import wizard will not work as it did on my XP machine. But, strangely, I also can no longer import the photos on my old XP machine either!
My iPhone 3Gs syncs fine with iTunes but the folder of photos is in the backup format and so are unusable.
Something that may be significant is in the Devices & Printers listing my iPhone is listed under 'Unspecified' as Apple Mobile Device USB driver.
I'll try to see if theres a driver update for WIN7 to see if that will list it properly and resolve the problem.

Problems importing photos from cameras

I have a iPod with video, a photo connector, a Pentax Optio WP and a Canon 350D. When I try to import photos from any of my 2 cameras it may give me the error message "an error occurred while importing". It is more likely the more photos i have to import. Say If I have to import only 10 jpg photos it does it with no problem. However if I import 500MB worth of photos with or without raw i get the error message. Once the error occurred I can't access any of the imported phots, since the menu item is missing then and i can't run any more imports. I have to connect the camera to my PC and delete all import folders to get it working again. I have set up both cameras with PTP/print and always double-check all connections
Any help would be appericiated, Thanks
iPod with Video Windows XP

Hi Spoottyipod
First off, do a soft reset on your iPod(hold down menu+centre button) this seems to fix most peoples problems. If not.
i've posted this a few times for people on here. The easy way to solve your problem is to buy the Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 15-in-1 Media Card Reader/Writer. model number:F5U249ea.
the reason's you should get this are. 1: it works perfect with the ipod and camera connector and is a little bit faster.
2: your can keep shooting while your saving your shot's.
if still no luck. put the CD that came with your iPod in and use the software updater on there. if you want the latest 1.1.1 go to: http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
hope this helps you. don't hesitate to ask for any help.

Problem importing photos from nikon D3100 to MacBookPro

I am trying to import photos from my Nikon D3100 onto my MacBookPro, but can't do it either using iPhoto or Image Capture. iPhoto detects the images but doesn't display them. When I try to import them it says they are in an unrecognisable format. ImageCapture displays them only as thumbnails, and does not allow me to import them. Any ideas?

Are you shooting in RAW format, and if so, have you applied the most recent RAW compatibility software update?

Problem importing photos from card reader

I have been successfully importing photos from my camera's memory card using a card reader. I was half way through a similar import, when a pop up came up on screen to say I was running out of disc space. So I deleted some other files to make room and the import appeared to complete. I then organised these photos into albums, when iPhoto unexpectedly quit. When I opened it again the albums still recognise that there are photos there but you can not view or edit them. Any help appreciated.

I did do a test and yes if you have a folder on your SD card, you will get an "Import" link. If not, no importing ability. I was not able to import a .m4v movie however. I was able to import a .MOV that was taken by an iPhone but not a .mov from another application.
I'd say the hack to import into an iPad using the Apple SD Card Reader is make sure the media files are in a folder named DCIM on an SD card (as you mentioned) with the 8 character naming convention.

Problem importing photos from iphone3G via Adobe Photoshop Elements v7.0

I have adobe elements v7.0 and an iPhone 3g running the new release
iPhone OS.
When I connect the iPhone to upload the photos I have taken on it into
pe7 the import photos dialog box opens and then shows how many photos
are there to import. But each thumbnail is blank and I get an error
message that finally crashes pe7 without importing the photos.
The same thing happens if I have pe7 open and choose to import photos
choosing the iPhone as the attached device from the drop down list
This problem has started since I downloaded the new iPhone OS 3.0 - before then the import into Elements 7.0 worked fine
Is anyone aware of this bug and a way of fixing it?

I, too, have experienced the same problem - but without full resolution. I chose to have PE7 automatically download the photos from the phone upon connection/syncing and have continued to experience the "fatal error" message. Even though I cancel the action when the "fatal error" show up (and the phone syncs without further problem), I believe that the conflict messes up something within the iPhone system. For the 5th time (and 3rd phone in 2 months), it appears that every time I try to use the camera shortly after receiving the "fatal" error problem, the phone ceases to work. It works just fine as long as I don't open the camera program. So - I am now trying to figure out how to get the computer(PC)/PE7 to not automatically download pictures upon connection and see if my suspicions are accurate. Any suggestions on that question are appreciated!

Problem importing photos from my Cann 30D... PLEASE HELP!

Hi all,
I just installed my ilife 08, and since I have a problem importing the pictures from my Canon 30D into my mac.
I was able to do so before the installation (the usual, connecting the camera with a USB, iphoto opening and Import). Now when I connect the camera nothing happens.
Please help!
Is there a bug that any of you know about or do I need to do something?
THanks.
Noa.

I generally use a card reader rather than connecting direct to camera but just tried my Canon 30D with USB.
EOS Utility opened first - don't know if you have this installed.
I quit that, nothing happened.
Opened iPhoto which was not running and photos appeared for import and imported ok.
So 30D imports do work.
If you have a card reader, can you import from that - if not it might suggest your images are corrupted on the card. Do they playback fine in-camera?
I suspect you have a corrupt installation of iPhoto or Mac OS or just some old files that are not behaving with the new installation.
Do you have any plugings installed?
Running OS X 10.4.10 btw.

IPhoto 11 - problem importing photos from camera

When i try to import more than one photo at a time from a camera, the import gets stuck importing the second photo, then after a while fails with the error 'unrecognised file format'. All the images are .jpeg and can be sucessfully imported one at a time.
Is there a fix to this problem?
Thanks,
iPhoto '11 version 9.4.2

First step is to get the photos off the camera and reformat your memory card using the camera's format command
a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and the reformat the card -- I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos

Problems syncing photos from iphoto to ipod via itunes

I have been having some difficulty getting my itunes to sync iphoto contents to my ipod. This worked fine for ages, but has just stopped working. I can sync photos from a standalone folder. Following a discussion on the ipod forum (for full details see: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1872524&start=0&tstart=0 ) we have established it is something in the iphoto library that is causing the problem. A new library works fine, but switch back and itunes does not recognise it. I am hoping that someone here can help me identify what could be causing the problem.
Any thoughts welcome.
Duff
ps I have also posted this in the iphoto forum, see here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1876616

Resetting your iPod puts the iPod's software in factor default. It doesn't erase anything. Restoring the iPod erases your iPod's content and puts a fresh copy of the OS on it. Restoring is a more extreme way to solve a problem. Use restore if a reset doesn't work. If a restore doesn't work, then its not likely that a reset would help. Sorry for the late reply, I was busy with classes. Cheers mate.

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?
