Problem importing pictures & videos

I had taken some video this past weekend and need to send to someone. I tried to email it right from my phone but it said the file is too large. So I plugged my phone in to my computer because I figured I would just import all of my pic & videos and send what I needed straight from my computer. Unfortunately, my computer didn't import all of my pictures & videos. Any idea why? I tried to unplug the USB cord and try it again but it isn't evening opening up the option to import pictures. Help please!

Well lets see. If you take a video and its a HD setting it is quite large. However all is not lost. I use GMail to send high quality vudeo and photos. Please remember many isp's will not accept a file in excess of 10 MB so even if you can send it does not mean the file exceeds message will not be sent.
I don't own your make of phone but my friend has one, he hooks it via the usb cable that came with the phone to his computer and its set for usb mass storage. It shows up as another drive letter when connected.
his photos are in a file called DCIM and he has another folder called pictures which has his photos. There is also videos on this internal memory of which he transfers to his home computer.
You might want to get a file browser like Astro in the Google Play Store to check all the folders for your photo and videos.
Good Luck
Oh sometimes you need to change the usb pirt on your computer to try and connect again for it to be found.

New problem importing photos videos

since I upgraded my iphone 5 to ios7, I having a problem importing photos and videos to my pc? I have Windows 7. Has anyone else had this issue and been able to resolve it?

Hi I have figured it out on my own just today coz what apple suggested didn't help much so I just have to do it by myself.
This is what you need to do:
open your computer and search for autoplay, it will open rightaway and then scroll down look for your device then change "ask everything" to "import photos and videos in windows" connect your ipad again then tthe import box will open.. and your good!
i hope this will help you. Good luck! :-)

Problem importing pictures into lightroom 5.4 on a Mac.

I have lighroom 5.4 on a Mac and I am having some trouble importing pictures into my library on lightroom. The other day I was trying to import some from another folder in my computer and the files were showing up empty (although they were not). And today I was trying to import from an SD card and I was having the same problem. I shoot in raw on a Nikon. So what can I do to fix this problem?
This is what it looks like when I try to import

Ask in the LR forum and provide exact technical info - "I shot raw on Nikon" and "on a Mac" is not.

Please help! Problems importing pictures from iphoto

I'm making a slideshow of pictures of my family with iMovieHD. Everything was working great and I have about 7 minutes of video. I tried to import another picture from the media/photos area and now the photo shows up as horizontal lines of various colours. (Similar to the way a tv looks when not tuned into a channel properly). I tried importing the picture as a clip, and the same thing happened. This happens with ANY photo I try to add to the timeline now. I've restarted my computer and updated the software. Have I used up too much memory?

Hi Sue,
Thank you so much for your suggestion. I tried following the instructions by inserting a still clip at the beginning of my movie. Unfortunately, the Kenburns clip that I want to insert still shows up as horizontal moving colour lines. I noticed that the article you suggested was geared towards iMovie 4 (not HD) and said the problem had vertical black and white lines (not coloured horizontal). I tried reimporting the picture, but the same problem still occurs. Any new picture that I want to insert into the timeline does this! What's wrong with my computer?

But the past two days when I plug my phone in, it wont open iphoto automatically or upload my pics due to a problem uploading an image? also when I maunally open Iphoto I can click on the my iphone folder but instead of seeing pictures, all I can see are grey squares that represent my pics and videos...
please help!!!

also when I maunally open Iphoto I can click on the my iphone folder but instead of seeing pictures, all I can see are grey squares that represent my pics and videos...
Does Image Capture see your iPhone Photos correctly? Try, if you can import them using Image Capture.
If not, you will need to troubleshoot your iPhone.

What kind of media do you have in your camea roll? Only jpegs, or also raw images or videos that might be complicating matters?

IMovie, resolution problem importing picture.

Dear all,
When I imprt pictures in iMovie the resolution of the picture became very low. Does somebody knows if there is any setting that allow the import of higher resolution picture? It seems to be a common problem. I've ask in an Apple store with no solution. Thanks for the help
Regards

Thanks but this does not clarify my question,
just to be clear, I'm talking about pictures from iPhoto or from other. Is in iMovie present a setting to allow to have a hiher quality of the imported photo or not?

Problem Importing Pictures

Used iPhoto for over 5000 pictures. Now it's saying there's an unrecognized format or error downloading an image everytime i try to import. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've done nothing different and I am using a Iphone 5

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
from where are you downloading from?
exactly when and where does the message come up?
can you provide a screenshot of the message?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

Problems importing a Video

Hallo! I want to put a video(wich i can see with Quick time player) on my ipod and for that I tried to import it to itunes but when i try too import it it comes an error wich says it is an unknown error and on the end (-50. I dont know what that means. maybe I am doing something wrong. please somebody explain me how I can import videos to itunes.

Could be a number of things but most likely if it works on your local machine but not on the server, it's a pathing issue. So you have all your flash related files in the same folder, correct? But are they all in the same folder as the web page? They do not have to be, any of the Flash related files can be in whatever folders you want, just remember to path the elements relative to the Web page, NOT the physical location of the Flash file. From an old post:
Pathing issues
Almost always when it works on the local machine and not the server, it's a pathing problem.
You can put your Flash related files in whatever folders you want, they do not have to be in the root. But if sticking them in there worked, then you know that the issue was a pathing problem.
Just remember that paths become relative to the Web page on which those Flash files are used. So for example, if your .swf is in the flash/data folder and you use that .swf on a Web page in the root, you are in effect, removing that .swf from flash/data and putting it in root. So if the .swf is loading any related files (xml, etc), the path used inside the .swf to the .xml file has to be relative to it's new location in root and back down into flash/data. This is true even though when testing the .swf by itself, it can be inside flash/data and work just fine, since relative to it's location, the path is just fine, they are in the same folder. But if that same path is used when the .swf is placed on a page two folder levels up, the relative path has changed, the old "same folder" path will not work.
So just be sure that you use addresses relative to the final Web page locations (not physical file locations) and you can put the files wherever you want.

Problems importing PPT videos into iMovie

Hello -
I consider myself a pretty computer literate person, but I'm afraid I'm stumped with my current problem.
I need to import a Power Point Presentation into iMovie so I can record video of myself speaking over the presentation. I found many bits of helpful advice about how to do this. Apparently, the steps should be as follows:
1) Time out your PPT presentation as needed.
2) Save the PPT presentation as a movie (MOV) file.
3) Convert the file into a format iMovie can read with a converter like MPEG Streamclip or MacX Free iMovie Video Converter.
4) Import the new file into iMovie.
All sounds good, but I have a problem with step 3. After the file has been converted, the resulting video cuts off the first slide and the time it should have taken. This happens with both the converters (listed above) I tried. So, I thought I would just add some time to the PPT presentation and it would be ok, but the same things happens even when I add a minute at the beginning of the video.
I checked the original PPT video file and it looks to be the correct lenght, but the converted versions cut off the beginning of the video.
This is quite odd and I'm stumped. Any ideas would be very welcome.
Thanks!
Kyle

Problems Importing Complete Video in DVD Studio Pro

I have video that I edited in Final Cut Pro and exported as a QuickTime file (.mov), with chapter markers. I checked the video in QuickTime player and all my chapter markers were present, and the entire video played through the end. The whole movie is 52 minutes in length. However, two problems have arisen once the video was imported into DVD Studio Pro.
1. All my chapter markers disappeared.
2. The entire audio track is present and will play through the end of the movie, but the video cuts off more than 6 minutes before the end of the movie.
I have tried several options to get this video to import correctly. Sometimes the chapter markers remain, but I can never get the video track to import completely. I would greatly appreciate any advice, as this has become very frustrating. Thank you.

Since my last post, I have tried importing a couple different versions of the video file. One attempt included chopping the video file into 2 parts and exporting them two separate .mov files from FCP. I then tried to insert them into the track editor as separate entities that played back-to-back. This led me to the discovery that DVDSP will not let me have a video track that plays any longer than 00:45:58:21. Why this is, I do not know, but I am convinced this problem lies within DVDSP, not in the video file. Is there a setting somewhere that limits the length of a video?

Problem importing home video into iTunes for ipod touch

I recorded my son's marching band concert on a Flip Video camera. I have tried importing it various ways (directly from flip, importing to windows media player, burning it to dvd, putting the file directly into the itunes library folder) but every time I try to either drag and drop or add file to library, nothing happens. Nada. It just doesn't appear. Is there a way to do this?

The file must be an mpeg4 video meeting these standards:
H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
H.264 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

Problem importing pictures thru iphoto onto an external hardrive.

I just filled up my computer with pictures but i'd like to be able to import them directly onto the external and be capable to still look at them on iphoto.
I'd appreciate if you can help.

Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
Quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library as a single entity from the pictures folder on your boot drive to the external drive and launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key - use the select library option to point to the iPhoto library you just copied to the external drive - test it for a while to be sure it is ok and then quit iPhoto and trash the iPhoto library on your boot drive - relaunch iPhoto and test one more time before you empty the trash
