Unable to import photos and movies from iphone 4

I am getting an error message when I try to import photos from my iphone 4. I had no problem previously. The message states a specific file name for the photo, but I cannot find a way to make iphoto show me photo names on my phone. I don't think it is particular to one image.
Any suggestions?

Thanks to both of you for your replies.
For some reason, the Camera & Scanner Wizard has started to detect the phone now. Maybe it will stop again in the future, but for now it's OK.
I do have iTunes installed, and the iPhone's still not appearing in Windows Explorer. I might reinstall if the problem recurs.
Yep, it's an official Apple cable, but it's a bit old. I got it with my iPod a few years back. Maybe i should start using that as the charger cable, and the new cable i got with my iPhone for syncing?
Thanks again for your replies.

  • Importing photos and videos from iphone to PC

    So, is there a way to import just certain pictures and videos? I just need one video uploaded to my PC to transfer to a USB for class, and I dont want to import the thousands of photos I have just to get to that one video. Incredibly frustrating! and I noticed the DCIM folder doesn't have the videos in them ever since the ios 7 update, that was one way I could just drag a photo or video on my laptop without importing all my photos. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Hello KristineS79,
    This can be done by disabling Photo syncing in iTunes, then resyncing the phone.
    To delete synced photos and videos from your device
    In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner (or in the left pane if you have the Sidebar enabled). (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
    Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
    Click Apply.

  • How do you export photos and movies from iPhoto to your iPhone? I synced the device and noticed that some photos and some movies from iPhoto on my laptop were not transferred to my iPhone.

    How do you export photos and movies from iPhoto to your iPhone?  I synced the devices and noticed that some photos and movies on my laptop iPhoto were not transferred to my iPhone?

    I am not sure, which answer you found - so just in case:
    If you sync your iPhone with the iPhoto library, the photos will only stay on the iPhone until the next sync and they are not in the Camera Roll. If you transfer using the Photo Stream, they will only be vidsible in the stream, until they are replaced in iCloud by newer content.
    So, if you want to transfer the photos permanently, save them to the Camera Roll.

  • Transferring photos and videos from iphone onto macbook

    Hi
    This may sound like a completely basic issue but i can't for the life of me work out how to transfer photos and videos onto my macbook. I can easily put them on iphoto but i don't really want to put them there as i keep all my photos under the normal photos folder. When I plug it in it just opens iphoto though and doesn't give me the option to put them anywhere else. When i used to have a windows pc and plugged my phone in it asked me if i wanted to open and view files, then you would just drag them into whatever folder on your pc you wanted them in. But there doesn't seem to be a similar system on the mac. does anyone have any ideas? it's probably something very simple but i just can't work it out.

    With a Mac, you can use iPhoto for importing photos from any digital camera including importing photos and videos from the iPhone's Camera Roll and if you use iPhoto for photo storage and management, which sure makes it easier than doing this the Windows way and manually managing photo storage - manually creating folders for select photos, etc., or you can use the Image Capture application for this which is located in your Applications folder.
    iPhoto includes an option via iPhoto preferences to launch automatically when any digital camera is connected and the Image Capture application should include the same.

  • Can I view photos and movies from my external hard drive? I used Time Machine and a WD Passport for backup. Since my drive on my MacBook Pro is filling up I was planning to delete some of the movies and photos.

    Hello, eco1. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    This sounds like you are wanting to move your iTunes media folder to an external drive and have iTunes this folder from this location.  If this is the case then I would recommend taking a look at the article below.

  • How to import photos and videos from Android device?

    Hello
    I just bought Photoshop Elements 11 recently and I'm trying to import photos and videos from my phone, Samsung Galaxy SIII, but having a little trouble.
    When I go to "Import from Camera or Card Reader" option and choose my phone from the "Get photos from" drop down menu in "Source" section the "Photo downloader" finds
    every single photo and/or video stored on the device and it's memory card but I'm trying to import only photos and/or videos I've shot my self with the phone, witch is kept
    in an folder named DCIM, but I simply can't figure out how to so my question is:
    How do I import photos and/or videos from my Android device?

    Try clicking Advanced button (bottom left) in the downloader dialog. You should then be able to select and deselect thumbnails and import only the ones you give the checkmark.

  • Importing Music and Movies from PC to Mac

    I'm trying to transfer my songs and music from my old PC to my Mac however I'm having a lot of trouble. I copied all my iTunes songs and movies from my old PC to an 80GB external HD. I connected the HD to the new Mac and tried to import the songs and movies into iTunes however it doesn't do anything. When I drag the files to iTunes from the HD folder it just drags it and disappears not copying anything. After that I tried copying all my files from the external HD to the Mac HD and then tried to open the files and still nothing. I've tried using import and add to library but still nothing. I also made sure all the settings in preferences for importing and general were correct. The songs are in AAC format and the movies are in mp4 and m4v. The m4v movies which I bought from iTunes won't play or import to iTunes but the mp4 movies will play however not import. Someone please help!

    Does your PC have an ethernet cable in the back? If so, you can make a steady transfer of files that way. It can be faster than wireless connections and does not take up DVDs or CDs. The multimedia files should work correctly, though for the .wma files you will either need to download Windows Media Player for Mac or Flip4Mac, a software that lets you run ".wma" files in QuickTime, but I find to be using Windows Media Player anyway. For your Microsoft Office files, as long as you have Microsoft Office for Mac they should run seamlessly. Outlook files will transfer over to a program called Entourage. Though these can be transfered, not everything can be such as items with the extension ".exe", etc.
