Transferring photos to drive

I transferred my pictures from my 4S to a flashdrive to clear space on my phone. It is now saving all those pictures as albums that cant be deleted. They dont seem to be taking up any space on the phone but they wont delete from my photo app. ideas?

Tell us more, please.
How exactly have you transferred the photos to your USB drive?
What version of Aperture and MacOS X are you using?
How are you trying to open the photos on your USB drive?  What happens when you try? Any error messages?
And how is your drive formatted?

I am getting really upset and frustrated; so I'm out of ideas.

    even when the hard drive is compatable with my MacBook Air.
    What is the file system on that drive? Is it formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled)?
    And what is your iPhoto version? iPhoto 9.5.1?
    Some how I have trouble trying to drag my photos to my drive and it is not letting me to do so
    What exactly happens when you try to drag photos to your drive? Are you dragging from iPhoto's window to the drive?
    Can you export your photos, when you select the photos on iPhoto and use the command "File > Export"?

  • Having a hard time transferring photo files

    i seem to be having difficulty transferring photo files from my cannon image browser program to iphoto. the cannon image browser software came with my camera and for some dumb reason i have been uploading my images with it, but now i have come to realize how slow and clumsy it is. i am trying to get rid of it all together but don't want to lose my photos. i have tried creating a new file on my desktop and then manually moving photos to it and then transferring them to iphoto. this has worked a few times but now and error message shows up each time saying i dont have enough space on my hard drive to complete the import. i can't simply drag items out of the cannon browser into iphoto for some reason. this has become highly frustrating. please help.

    What is your hard drive capacity and available free space?
    Just like iTunes, iPhoto by default (I believe) copies a chosen photo for import to the iPhoto library - does not just transfer it from one location to another but there is a preference setting for this.
    To confirm, are the photos selected for import into the iPhoto library and successfully imported still available in this folder? If so, there are now two copies of each photo imported - one in the folder and another in the iPhoto library.
    At the menu bar, go to iPhoto > Preferences > Advanced and next to Importing, deselect "Copy files to iPhoto Library folder when adding to library"

  • Can't open transferred photos in camera roll

    I transferred photos from my old 4s to 5s using backup/restore but although I can see the transferred photos as thumbnails in camera roll, I can't open them or do anything with them. The photo simply opens for a second then disappears. This only happens with transferred photos not those taken with the 5s. Any suggestions?

    I am having the same thing as well. I click the photos app, I try view the photos I have taken, it just closed out of the photos app and goes straight back to the home screen. There is another way to see the photos you have taken. You click on the camera, then you click on the photos on the bottom left corner, it works for me. I can see all the pictures I have taken.
    I've been having problems with my camera, whenever I take a picture (with/without flash) my photos turn out black, was wondering if anyone can help us out about this problem.

  • I transferred photos to my computer by cutting and pasting.  I have some on my phone that I didn't cut and paste.  Now they are can and I cannot find them anywhere on phone or computer

    I transferred photos to my computer by cutting and pasting.  I have some on my phone that I didn't cut and paste.  Now they are gone and and I cannot find them anywhere on phone or computer. Are they lost forever.  I have done no back-up recently or icloud.  My daughters 8th grade graduation was on it.  I am devastated.

    A lot of I should haves.  I had too many photos and while at work I opened up the 4 folders inside of the DCIM folder on my phone.  I didn't think it would be a big deal to just cut the photos and paste on my computer as I have  done this before.  i moved one folder that had 803 pictures in it and all was fine.  I ran out of time and unplugged phone and went home.  When I got to work this morning I was looking at my phone and realized I only had 34 pictures.  I knew there should have been 400+ there and they are gone.  Don't know what happened and if they were deleted off phone or computer I cannot see them anywhere.  I didn't back up (I know mistake) Lessoned learned I just hope there is something i can do!

  • Transferring photos from a Canon to my Mac

    I recently bought a Canon Power Shot.  I have used it and transferred photos to my Mac and didnt have any problems. Now all of a sudden, I turned it on, to import the pictures to the computer, and the camera just turns itself off and the Mac says no camera detected !  I dont know if this is a problem with the camera or the Mac. The camera works fine when actually taking pictures.  Can anyone help ?

    Hi..
    Try this ...
    Open Image Capture located in your Applications folder. Connect your camera.
    Select the camera under Devices.
    Now click the pop up menu bottom left corner of the Image Capture window and select the app you want to import photos with to your Mac.
    Before disconnecting the camera from your Mac, right or control click the camera icon on the Desktop then click Eject.

  • I transferred photos fr laptop to iPad. When I transferred more, the ones fr before were gone. This happened every time I added more. How can I save them on my iPad?

    When I transferred photos fr my laptop to iPad, the photos put on the iPad before, we're gone. this happened every time I put more on. How can I stop this happening and save the photos on my iPad?

    Since this is not icloud related, I suggest you post over in the iTunes forums.  Or the iPhoto forum if that is what you are using, or the Aperture forum (these two are for mac users).
    It would also help if you tell us whether the laptop is mac or pc.

  • What is the direct connect method for transfering photos from my macbook pro to my iphone without using iTunes syncronization? (iow: a simple photo copy from mac to iphone?)

    I feel like I should know the answer to this. I can't believe it is a hard question.
    What is the direct connect method for transfering photos from my macbook pro to my iphone without using iTunes syncronization? (iow: a simple photo copy from mac to iphone?)
    Easy? Right?
    Just plug my iphone in to a mac and copy a photo from the mac to my iphone.
    I don't have internet access - I can't email it, or mobileme it, or dropbox it.

    iTunes. Other than that there is no direct method. However, do try the iPhone forums.

  • Having troubles transferring photos from my Iphone 4s to my computer

    I can't transfer photos/videos from my iphone 4s to my computer since the computer won't recognize the phone as I plug it in. I tried to install new drivers but only tells me that all my drivers are up to date. I cant recall having this problem until I switched to Windows 7. I also tried reading these forums and others for a solution but I have this far been unable to find one. Is there anyone else out there having this problem?
    I also seem to have exactly the same problem with transferring photos from my digital camera.

    Hello there Philipfromswe.!     Philipfromswe
    Thanks for replying to my question! You mentioned that it might be a problem with my computer, what do you mean by that? Is it the hardware, i.e loose cables and such or is it the software that you refering to?
    Great suggestion that I should use Dropbox to transfer my pictures. I already have Dropbox and I have used it to make copies. The problem is that I find the app troublesome to use and I much rather prefer that I can acess the photos as I did before.
    I will continue to try to find an solution to my connectivity problems but I appreaciate your advice!

  • Transferring photos in Photoshop 11

    Have just transferred photos from old to new computer. Photos transferred OK but folder names did not. It would save a lot of work if folder names could be transferred as well. Running Photoshop 11 and Windows 8.1
    Any help would be appreciated

    The best method is to use backup and restore, starting in the Organizer on the old machine.

    Hook the phone to the computer, open the Computer icon and look for the iPhone folder. Copy the images. Not difficult at all. Sync your contacts with Outlook through iTunes. Not really so difficult.

  • Transfered photos from IMac with Iphoto 9 to a mac book with Iphoto 11 now Iphoto 09 errors out saying "You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto."

    Transfered photos from IMac with Iphoto 9 to a mac book with Iphoto 11 now Iphoto 09 errors out saying "You can’t open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto.You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto."  We have not updated or changed anything on the IMac all we did is transfer photos. Any help would be appreciated.

    LarryHN is correct. The only way this message occurs is if the iPhoto Library database is upgraded to a newer version.
    You could try holding SHIFT-OPT-COMMAND when launching iPhoto from the dock and checking only "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" and hope it restores the previous database prior to the upgrade.
    If that doesn't work, you can install iPhoto '11 on your iPhoto '09 computer. If I understood the iPhoto '11 Mac App License agreeement correctly, you can install it on any personal, non-commerical computer you own running 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7.

  • Transfering photos from old laptop to new with different versions of PS elmnts

    We have PS Elements 4 on an old lap top, running Windows Vista, which is beginning to fail.
    Have just purchased new lap top running Windows 8 which will not accept PS Elements 4 as it is incompatible, but it has partially loaded.
    Shop says they transfered photos across from one to the other but cannot find any of the tags for 7000 plus photos.
    Am intending to buy PS Elements 12. but being 70 plus am not computer savvy.
    Is there a step by step idiots guide on how to get said 7000 plus photos, complete with all the tags on them, from old LT to new LT at the same time converting them from PSE4 to PSE 12.
    Regards

    This document is from Adobe, certainly not step-by-step!  If you plan to convert the old catalog, I suggest that you get help in view of the reservation which you have identified.
