Trouble downloading photos

I am trying to download from my camera. Iphoto will not download any photos because it says one photo is not transferrable. How do I get the other ones.

Try use Image Capture (in the Applications Folder)

I am having trouble moving files from iPhoto to a thumb drive. Sometimes I can move 20 photos next time I can only move 2 photos or 0---this is during the same session. I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet. Can someone please help?

I am having trouble moving files from iphoto to a thumb drive. During the same session sometime I can move 10 photos at a time, the next time I can only move one photo and sometime no photos will move. I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet. I was using a MacBook Pro and had no problems like this. I then upgraded to the MacBook Pro with Retina Vision and this is the computer I am having problems with. Can anyone please give me a suggestion in how to fix this problem. THANK YOU.

iPhoto problems should be posted in their forums.
I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet.
Needs clarification. You upload from your computer to the internet & download from a website/internet to your computer. So which are you trying to do? Either way, sounds like a browser issue. You need to post in the forum of whichever browser you are using.

Trouble downloading photos from card reader-OS9.1 G4 Cube

Trying to download photos shot with Casio EXP600 onto Toshiba SD 512MB Card, inserted into Thunderbolt SD/MS card reader plugged into USB port on computer. Camera "Photo Loader" software downloaded OK onto computer. Get error message when try to download either .jpg or .tif files: AN ERROR OCCURRED IN THE PREVIEW FILE CREATION PROCESS. THE FILE WAS NOT CREATED. I can open a file on the card and see the photo on the screen OK, but not download it. If try to drag a photo from card to Photoshop Elements 2, get a .tif file with horizontal white lines every 1/4 inch or so; with .jpg files, get horizontal [possibly overlap] bands. [Also have trouble with .jpg files created with Microtek i700 scanner: get error message if try to open on desktop, though those open OK in Photoshop. Don't know if this is a related problem]. Thanks for any help. Jim Gerstley
Question is: am I missing some critical software or need to update something in order for these photos to download to the computer? The picture files meet the DCF protocol and are supposed to be compatible with MAC OS 9, 10.1, and 10.2 though not 10.0. I do have quicktime player 4.1.2.

Hi, James. Try this simple experiment.
1. Create a new folder on your desktop, then connect your card reader. Double-click one of the photos on the camera card to confirm that it opens properly, as you've said they normally do. Drag-copy the same photo from your camera card into the folder on the desktop. Now double-click the copy. Does it behave exactly the same way as the original, or not?
2. Now drag-copy a different photo — one that you've never opened on your computer — from the camera card into the folder on the desktop. Double-click the copy to open it. Does it behave exactly the same way as the photo that you had previously opened from the camera card, and then copied into folder on the desktop?
It may be necessary, for the results of this experiment to be most informative, to reformat your card in your camera and shoot some new photos before conducting the experiment. Reformatting will erase the photos currently on the card. But since they seem to be corrupt anyway, you've already lost them. Copy them all to your computer first anyway, in case any of them are not yet corrupt.
If the results differ between Step 1 and Step 2, then I suspect that what has queered things for you is the act of opening your photos while they still reside on the camera card, before copying them to the computer. The application they're opening in has made some obscure change in the files that isn't being saved properly on the card, and is corrupting them; consequently, they're corrupt when you then copy them onto the hard drive.
It's a good rule of thumb not to do anything at all with photos while they reside on the camera card: always copy them onto your hard drive before opening, editing, emailing, deleting, or doing anything else to or with them. It's an equally good rule not to do anything to the card itself while it's connected to your computer: to format it, erase it, or delete individual photos from it, always use your camera's controls, while the card is in the camera and disconnected from the computer.
By the way, a folder on your desktop is just another folder in a particular location on your hard drive — there's no functional difference between a folder in the hard drive window and a folder on the desktop, except that the latter is more conveniently accessible. The desktop itself is actually a folder on the hard drive, albeit an invisible one with a special display mode managed by the OS.

Trouble downloading photos from iPhone to iMac. Error message says I need to free up space on Startup Disc

After clicking "Download," the iMac seems to download photos from iPhone. Eventually, I get message that I need to free up space on Startup Disc by deleting files. What to do?

You are in a very dangerous situation and you need to fix it now.
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.

Trouble downloading photos from camera to iPod to PowerBook

Four "rolls" of photos I downloaded from my camera to the iPod appear in the iPod "Photos" menu separately from the other eleven rolls, which are found in "Photo Import". Those eleven can be transferred to my PowerBook desktop easily from "DCIM", but the four that appear separately from "Photo Import" under "Photos" do not appear either in "DCIM" or in "Photos" when I open the iPod icon on my desktop, and so they can't be downloaded. Also, photos I had once uploaded from the PowerBook to the iPod cannot be found in the iPod, but they are in "Photos" when I open the iPod on my desktop. Everything must exist somewhere, but I am confounded looking for them.

...could this be a problem with the formatting of the iPod's drive? I don't want to reformat it if it means losing the pictures I can't access through my computer...

Trouble downloading photos fro an email

I just bought my iPad last weekend so I am just now encountering this. I sent myself an email with some pictures attached to it. Instead of showing up in mail as downloadable attachments the pictures show up I. The email itself. When I tap on the picture I get the copy option but I have no idea how to get the paste option when I open photos.
Can anyone help me with this?

Where are you planning to paste to ?
If you tap the picture and then choose the "arrow" in the upper right corner, you can do a "Save Image" option, it will go to a default photo album on your iPad. You can then select that photo to insert into certain other apps.
If you tap the picture and hold and get the "copy" option, you can then start a new email message and tap and hold the screen in a blank part of your new message and you will get the paste option.

Can't download photos from digital camera after latest software update

Hi,
since the latest update on the 28.9.08 I have trouble downloading photos from my Canon Eos 400D. I can't use "Digitale Bilder" anymore, nor Adobe Bridge Photo Downloader or iPhoto. I have to use my partners MacBook that doesn't have the update yet. Could it have something to do with the RAW-Compatibility-Update? And does Apple know and do something about it?
Or can I fix this myself?
I'd appreciate help.
smartgrey

Same here... I have a Powershot Elph340HS and a SD960IS, I've updated Canon ImageBrowser and CamaraWindow and it just says "no camera detected"... so I used a different usb to make sure it wasn't that, I've tried everything, Preview, iPhoto, even iMovie... all of which worked before for importing from my cameras...
OS X Yosemite (10.10) I'm on a Macbook Pro
please fix this Apple!!!!

Help download photos

I'm having trouble downloading photos from my camer.
does apple no longer support this?

If the issue is with RAW photos, these are the supported cameras under 10.7:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4757
Under 10.8 for future reference is here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5371
Under 10.9 is: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5955
Most cameras have a media card which allows other formats to be read by any photo processing application if connected via the appropriate reader. Many multifunction printers have media card readers for practically every card format.
Many cameras also support Image Capture application for loading their photos, if not iPhoto, and once you have the photos on your Mac Aperture can open them.

Download photos to ipad

I'm having trouble downloading photos from my PC to my ipad using itunes.
At the top of the screen I do not see a "photos" tab to click on to start the process.
Any help would be appreciated.

Melvillehondaman-
Run iTunes with your iPad connected to the computer. Select the iPad on the left side under DEVICES. Then click on Photos on the right side at the top of the window. There is a box to check to Sync Photos from, and a place to specify where they are located.
When this is set up, your photos should sync with the iPad.

I am having difficulty downloading photos from camera....iPhoto seems to be doing nothing, shows pictures on screen, but unable to proceed from there.

I am having trouble downloading photos to iPhoto from camera. iPhoto recognizes pictures, but does not offer the option to download/import.

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.

Has anyone had trouble with photo albums after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

Has anyone had trouble with photo albums and viewing photos after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

I downloaded mountain lion and then iPhoto '11 in order to tap into iCloud capabilities with all of my devices. (My Mac was outdated in regards to operating platform to do this). After installing iPhoto 11, I had to repair and rebuild my library of photos. However, after doing this, all of my albums were jumbled and, while I can see the image thumbnail, when I click on the thumbnail, and error that looks like a black triangle and gray exclamation pops up as opposed to the larger hi def image I want to view.

Trouble accessing photos.

Hello! Need help! Having trouble accessing photos from Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0, I had a free trial but never registered the program because I was not using it. The other day I was taking pics off a Canon camera, & they automatically loaded into that site. I selected cancel several times, but the program did not respond. Once they completely loaded in, the program asked if I wanted to erase photos from the camera, I selected no but it started erasing them, I was able to stop it but 44 were erased off the camera. I can see the photos in the program but can not access them since I never registered. I tried to register now but received email saying that program has expired. So how do I get my photos? Please help! The photos are not mine, I was loading them from a friends camera, & they are important vacation memories to her! Thanks! Ruth

When you click on one of the thumbnails do you see a blank window where the full sized image? Or do you see this in the window:
In either case make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
