Transfer a photo from Macbook running Mavericks to iOS8 iphone

I've upgraded my iPhone 5S to iOS8 without realising that iPhoto is no longer supported from my MacbookAir running Mavericks. Had I know I would have delayed the upgrade. Today I found out that I can't sync any of my iPhoto albums to my iPhone. This is problematic because I need to share some photo folders between my devices in order to post Business photos on Instagram and Vivino on my iPhone. How can I transfer any photos now from my Macbook to my iPhone? As an afterthought I wondered if  I could Airdrop some photo files to my iPhone however, it seems that Airdrop is also not supported from Mac to iPhone. I thought about reverting to iOS7 however my latest iCloud backup for my iPhone is now only an iOS8 Backup. Any advice would be appreciated.

Problem is resolved - I connected phone to macbook pro, resetting my sync settings to include sync via wi-fi,  and  ejected phone; for a while, nothing happened but  after a while, the    contacts newly entered on the macbook pro did  finally show up on phone - so thanks for advice but problem is moot.  And  i am not so sure I would have wanted to delete all my contacts from the phone and trust the iCloud back up -- on the other hand the force- code contacts and re-set phone suggestions look like good ones.
Many thanks, anyway.

  • How can I transfer my photos from macbook to iMac?

    I have a macbook pro and recently bought an iMac. I want to transfer all my photos to the iMac with all the faces and everything I have done. I have the latest version of iPhoto on both computers. How can I do it?

    Move the iPhoto library from the Pictures item of the Finder's sidebar on the MacBook Pro to the same location on the iMac via FireWire Target Disk mode, or a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended, or through AFP file sharing over a network.

  • My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incredible 2 cell phone and I can not transfer my photos from my cell phoen to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can no longer do so. i havenot upgraded to any new software.

    My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incrdible 2 cell phone and therefore I can not transfer any photos from my cell phone to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can not do so now. I have not upgraded to any new software. My USB cable is plugged in properly and I just get an error message -- "No Android Device Found". What could be the problem?

    I had the same issue with the Galaxy S4 trying to see what the hype was about and was my first and last android phone. With that being said unfortunately it is a hit or miss with the Mac recognizing an android device or not.  It worked perfectly fine the first time around and then it stopped working for no apparent reason. Through trial and error nothing I did solved the issue.   I did however plug it in my Mac and left it connected for about 30-40 min to charge for a bit and all of the sudden it recognizes the phone. So I just launched Android File Transfer and everything else became fluid after that.    I have no explanation as to why it happened that way, but what I gathered from this is maybe you just have to let it sit for a minute while plugged in before the Mac recognizes it, after all they are opposing software.  On a side note this is why I will always be an apple user, Iphones and the like never have this problem

    I'd like to transfer the photos from iPhone to MacBook Air. My iPhoto used to detect my iPhone automatically, but it doesn't happen anymore. How could I fox this? Thanks for helping!

    Check the iPhoto preferences:
    From the main menu bar:  iPhoto > Preferences > General:
         "Connecting camera opens"  : Set this option to  "iPhoto".
    If that does not help, disconnect your iPhone and reset your iPhone.
    To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    How do I transfer photos from macbook to imac?

    There are serveral ways.  Depending on how many there are you can email them to yourself.  You could also put them on a flash drive and download them onto your iMac.  Another way could be to Airdrop them (I suggest putting them all in a folder or compressing them to a .zip if you do this) from one to another.  Those would be the most simple ways to do it.

  • How do I transfer photos from macbook air to iphone 4s?

    I have a macbook air (mid-2012) with have the new itunes version (11.0.1), and can't figure out how to transfer photos from macbook to iphone.  There is no "Photo" tab in itunes in this version, and it doesn't appear in the pulldown choices. Help!

    Connect your iDevice.
    It should show in the left hand sidebar or in a button to the right of the iStore button
    You should see the summary page for your device with other buttons for Music Apps etc
    Click on the Photos
    Check the box to enable syncing of photos.
    Then either select all or choose selected playlists
    When selection is made click Apply at the bottom left
