Problem inporting photos

Trying to import pictures from a Canon Digital Elph Powershot SD780 IS.
I have a new Mac Book, never imported pics into iPhoto on this computer before. It doesn't seem to read all the pics, some are gray with white dashes. An empty frame, no pics displayed. I tried Import All and it comes up 'preparing to import' but never advances. So I tried only selecting the pics that were showing and hit 'import selected'. Same problem, preparing to import, but never advances.
Any ideas??? I was able to import 1 picture, choosing just it and import selected, I don't want to have to do this one at a time for 750 pictures. Help!

A possible cause of this is directory damage on the card. Try using Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) to move the files from the card to the desktop, then see if you can import them.

  • I recently had to swap out my iphone 4s and I am having problems restoring photos and videos from icloud.  I get a message on my phone that says " the URL you are requesting is not found on this server".  Pics and videos have been deleted too.

    I recently had to swap out my iphone 4s and I am having problems restoring photos and videos from icloud.  When I restored my phone from icloud, half of my pics and videos have been deleted, the pics that were restored on my phone are very blurry, and the videos won't play.  I get a message on my phone that says " the URL you are requesting is not found on this server".  I have erased and reset my phone twice, but every time I do it, more pics and videos are deleted.  I have backed up to icloud and iphoto, however, some of the pics are no longer on iphoto either.  Is there someway to get the videos to play on my phone again?  Make the photos not as blurry as they are now and to restore the pics and videos that have been lost?  I really would love to have them back, this phone is supposed to be the best and right now it doesn't seem to be.  Please help if you can.

    I too have noticed that once i restored from iCloud. Pictures blurry and videos wont play!
    Need help too!!

  • Problem emailing photos from iPhoto after installing OS 10.5.1

    Since installing Leopard I have had problems emailing photos from iPhoto. I can send from my laptop to another Mac without problem BUT when I try to email pix from iPhoto to a PC user or to post on my Google Group board it only sends the 'title' I gave it in iPhoto or the 'PC134567.JPG' the camera assigns it. I have tried exporting and attaching to emails but that doesnt work either .. at least not all the time. AND when I do send them from iPhoto to my office PC they arrive NOT as an attachment but are embedded in the email message .. seriously what the heck is going on and why is this not working the way it used to pre-OS 10.5.1? What changed? How can I make this work the way it used to?
    Thanks for reading and hopefully solving my problem

    Thank you again .. I got home and immediately tried the fix you suggested .. sent a 'test' email and it worked perfectly.

  • Problems downloading Photos from 8900 smartphone

    Hi
    Im having problems downloading photos stored on an SD card from my BB to PC.
    Ive looked at the other posts and turned on mass storage accordingly.
    When I connect my BB to the PC using the USB link, the BB informs me the mass storage mode is being activated and requests a password, which I enter.
    However, the BB does not appear in the Devices list in the My Computer screen on the PC.
    Does anyone have ideas as to the problem??
    I have lots of photos on there, so want to avoid sending dozens of mails to get the photos off the BB.
    Thank you

    Hi stuart_fraser,
    Have you checked the Windows Device Manager to see if the BlackBerry and/or Mass storage device shows up?  Also, the BlackBerry may show up in "My Computer" as a removable storage device.
    Thanks

    Self explanatory.
    You could try creating an iPod version of the films.
    Use CTRL and B to display the Menu bar shown above. Alternatively, use the ALT key, followed by the F key, the W key and finally the I (eye) key - that's (menu)/File/Create New Version/Create iPod or iPhone version.

  • Problems with Photos and Fonts and Explorer

    I am having problems with photos and fonts when my site is viewed on Explorer. The site is Ostyn-Newman.com The problems can both be seen on the start page -though they happen throughout the site. The photo is supposed to be only 30% opaque and it shows fine on Firefox or Safari, but Explorer viewers get the photo being used as wallpaper at 100% and this steps all over the text. Should I give up a using a photo as wallapaper?
    Also the font I am using for "Ostyn-Newman Objects for Fine Homes" shows well in Firefox and Safari, but looks really bad on Explorer products. Should I just change the font? I am currently using Snell Roundhand.

    The message in each is pretty much the same but he does give some info of an application that can optimize the web pages to make them more readily readable by IE.

  • Problem sending photos via email since I recently updated to iLife 11.

    Having problem sending photos by Email since I upgraded to iLife11.
    I followed the instructions.   I used to just select my photos and then a screen would come up to compose an email.
    Now it comes up with templates and I had to set up what account to send them from.  No matter what I do, it just
    never goes thru.  
    What's the solution?  

    Set Mail as your preferred email client in the iPhoto Preferences -> General

  • 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).

  • Sudden Problem Sending Photos by Email

    Hi,
    After being able to successfully send photos from my iPhone by email ever since I got it, I suddenly have a problem. The recipient does not receive the photo - only a small blue box with a question mark in it. The copy of the email in my Sent folder looks the same.
    I've tried a reset and, for info, I use BT Yahoo for email.
    Have hunted high and low for reference to this and only found one post but there was no real explanation or resolution.
    Any help or advice gratefully received. Cheers!

    Problem sending photos via email since I recently updated to iLife 11.
    Which MacOS X version are you using and which iPhoto version?
    If you are using Yosemite and have enabled up two-step verification for iCloud?  Then you may need to create an application specific password for iPhoto.  See this discussion:  Re: Unable to send photo through email using iphoto theme (designs)Re: Unable to send photo through email using iphoto theme (designs)Re: Unable to send photo through email using iphoto theme (designs)  Unable to send photo through email using iphoto theme (designs)

  • Problem sending photos by Email.  Received a response from T. Devlin.  Did not solve problem.  I had already done what he suggested.

    I had already entered my Email info under preferences.
    The screen comes up with the photos I want to send.
    I type my message and hit Send.  The blue bar appears "Sending".
    However,  don't know where the photos go, they don't reach destination.
    I tried sending to myself at another Email address - they didn't arrive, and they are not shown under Sent Emails either.
    How to resolve?
    Tried to respond to T. Devlin - but that didn't happen either.  Just a Like symbol was there (as in Facebook).

  • Problems uploading photos to facebook on Ally

    I have been having problems uploading photos from the gallery to facebook. I can upload them fine on twitter but not facebook any ideas... I have tried to reboot, turning off phone and removing battery, still won't upload to facebook.

  • Problem editing photos in iPhoto 6

    Hi,
    I am having a problem editing photos. When I click on a photo to edit I get the following error message:
    Unreadable Files
    The following file could not be imported. (The file is in the iPhoto Library folder.)
    /Users/myusername/Pictures/iPhoto Library2006/Modified/2006/Roll2183/DSCN0164.jpg
    I have rebuilt the photo library. I also backed up my iphoto library and reimported the photos. I have not messed with the photo library at all. I import my photos from the camera and generally work with them. I think this has been a problem since upgrading to 6.
    Has anyone else seen this?
    Thanks!
    iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

    Hi
    Welcome to the Apple DIscussions:
    This could be a file permissions issue:
    Download BatchMod from
    http://macchampion.com/arbysoft/
    And apply it to the iPhoto Library Folder using the settings found here:

  • Final Cut Pro 6.0.3 Problem with Photo JPG Codec ?

    Hi everyone...
    I have been working with music videos for several years using FCP 5.x and photo-jpeg codec, everything works fine. As time going by now I have updated my FCP using 6.0.3 with hopes to get better features. But unfortunately FCP 6 has problem with photo-jpeg codec. The problem is when I load a photo-jpeg video, the gamma will changes every time the playback head is start or stop. And I can't using video transition (standard cross-dissolve) anymore because the video gamma also change at the in transition and out transition. It also appear in my video monitor and output file ! I have searching all day to find out what is exactly the problem, but never get the solution. Should i come back to FCP 5.x ? Is it a BUGS or what ? What happen with Apple, why they let this happened ?
    For information the video is in SD PAL & captured using Blackmagic Decklink card.
    Please help,...Thanks.

    Welcome to the discussions...
    I believe this has to do with using YUV or RGB as the rendering method. RT is always RGB, but try changing the setting for your timeline to whatever it is not now...
