Videos lost (shrunk to 0sec) from iPhone 5 - iPhoto 9

We went on a wonderful ski vacation with my kids. I took about 10 videos on my iPhone 5 of them skiing (priceless) and watched them on the phone, no problem.
Came home and synced my phone to my MacBook with iPhoto 9.2.3 and everything looked fine so I (as usual) deleted the photos and videos to free-up space on my phone.
I went to view them in iPhoto and see that each video is 0sec!!! OMG the videos are lost? HELP!

If you restored your new iPhone by selecting restore from your old iPhone when you first connected to iTunes...
then it's gone :(
You'll know if that's what you did if all your old photos and contacts are on your new iPhone.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream doesn't include video. Attach your device to your computer with a USB cable and import the video using your photo application (i.e. iPhoto)

  • I lost pictures while transfering from iphone to mac, how to get then back?

    I lost 952 pictures after transferring then from my Iphone4 to Iphoto on my mac... While iphoto was finishing the transfer, it asked me if i would like to delet photos from iphone and I answred Yes... but some problem happens to Iphoto, and I have had to do the "force quit" with it... after all... when I opened Iphoto to see the pictures... it was not there... neither in my Iphone... Where I can find it back??

    You get one download only.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer files/docs/pics/music/etc.
    Use your backup to put everything back.
    You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow it.

  • How do I recover my contact list which I lost while transferring it from iPhone 3GS to windows address book via iTunes, How do I recover my contact list which I lost while transferring it from iPhone 3GS to windows address book via iTunes

    How do I recover my contact list which I lost while transferring it from iphone3gs to windows address book.

    Did you try and sync it with an address book on your computer that contained no entries at all?  If so, then they are gone.
    IF you backed up the phone before trying to do this, you may be able to recover some of the information using 3rd party software to try and extract it from the backup. I have no personal experience with any of these programs, so I'll leave specific recommendations to others who do.

  • Lost photo's importing from iPhone to iPhoto

    HELP!
    I imported about 40 photo's of a very precious event with my kids this morning, off my iPhone 4 into iPhoto 09 (version 8.1.2 (424)). I made the stupid mistake of saying "delete photo's off my phone" after the import (I thought I'd make it into an album and re-import).
    Photo's showed they successfully imported, I ejected my iPhone from iTunes and disconnected. I went to the "last import" in iPhoto, but it was very odd. It showed up at the top "Untitled Event - 1 Photo", but then had showed 38 items. Each one showed a thumbnail of the same photo, but was sized, scaled and oriented as per the actual real photo. Several videos on the import showed they were videos. When I clicked on a video, even though the thumbnail was wrong, it showed the correct video.
    Likewise if I clicked on any of the 38 photo's even though they all had the same (wrong) thumbnail, the correct photo came up.
    I tried to switch to the event view, and iPhoto froze. I waited 15 minutes to see if it could "unfreeze" but all I had was the spinning beachball. I had to do a force quit.
    I rebooted my whole mac, and opened iPhoto. Opens fine - but there is no indication of the 1 "event", or any of the photo's at all. On my iPhone, equally weird! The photo roll still shows that there are 38 photo's and videos on it - but they are all blacked out, and cannot be viewed.
    Help - the photo's had to have been imported, as I was able to view them at one stage - how can I find them?
    Cheers,
    Rob

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Video time base shrunk when loaded from Iphone to Quicktime

    Hello.
    I recently had a 22 minute long video on my iPhone and downloaded it to the PC.
    When playing in Quicktime it has compressed the video to 59 seconds. Would you know how to convert it back to the original length

    Hi mimmotto,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you want to import video from your iPhone to QuickTime. I suggest importing the videos into iPhoto first and then open with or move to QuickTime. The following article has information for importing to iPhoto.

  • Photos from iPhone-- iPhoto-- iCloud?

    I'm new-ish to the latest Apple ecosystem after being a long time user in the past, and would like to figure out if there is a way to set the following up:
    1. Take a picture/video on the iPhone
    2. Sync with iPhoto
    3. Sync with iCloud
    4. Delete photos/videos that were just synced to iCloud from both iPhone and iPhoto, so that they are not taking up storage space on my Mac/iPhone
    Basically I'd like to store everything on the cloud and nowhere else.  Is it possible to set this up as a seamless exercise, almost so that I don't even know its going on, and it just happens?  And if so how please.  Thanks!

    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • Photo Library, Deleting Photos from iPhone, iPhoto

    I have read posts about deleting photos from a photo library using iPhoto. I am a novice: do I have iPhoto as part of iTunes? Maybe the better question is: where on my computer is that photo being sync'd so I can delete it?

    JRichson,
    iPhoto is a application on Mac Computers. If you are looking a application to use with pictures and to sync with the iPhone then you might want to look at Adobe Photo Shop. Or on a PC you can sync photos from a folder on your computer.

  • Deleting pictures from iPhone/iPhoto

    I'd like to permanently delete pictures from my iPhone and iPhoto with one operation. Is there any way to do that?
    Thanks

    You can do it through the folder option with the device paired to iTunes. Otherwise you can select them to delete off the device by going to the album, hitting the box with the arrow coming out of it. Checking each one you don't want and after selecting them all hitting the delete.

  • Metadata is lost when updating photos from iphone to imac

    Hi! I just got a new iphone 4, and when I try to import photos from it, I see that all metadata is gone. I checked with iPhoto, Aperture and Adobe Bridge and I can only see the metadata in the photos directly imported from the iphone camera (no editing). If I use any app (Hipstamatic, Monochromia, etc.) the metada is gone, I cannot even see the camera that the photo was taken with... I checked the settings for the apps, and the setting are correct.
    I saw plenty of pictures taken/edited with these apps (on Flickr, etc) that still have metada.
    Does someone know how can I keep the metadata in all photos?
    Thanks!!

    Not what I wanted to hear but thanks for your quick response.  Do you know what the problem could have been?  Cheers

    To add the same content from the iPhone 4 backup, you can only backup and restore using the original Apple ID (iCloud) and password account.
    Content cannot be transferred from one Apple ID to another and accounts cannot be merged as noted here.

    I cannot figure out where I did wrong, honestly speaking.
    Or, maybe it is because of the automatic sync function in iTunes? This time when I connected the iPhone with the computer, I was reminded to update iTunes - then I did so; by default, "Automatic sync when this iPhone is connected" is checked so the computer was syncing with the iPhone via iTunes. However I remember that there were notifications saying something like "this iPhone was synced to another iTunes library" and I needed to erase this iPhone to sync it to the new library - then I followed; if I cancel, I wouldn't have any option to sync my iPhone with my computer.
    Do you think it is because this operation that iTunes gave me the previous sync data that didn't contain the latest photos/videos?
    iphone are meant to be sync to only one iTunes library.
    so you went ahead with the sync and it erase all your data?

  • Lost a movie file from iphone

    please help me as this is a really inportant vid i took
    i also have a mac book pro if it helps
    thank you very much for any help you may be able to offer
    darren

    OK, try this. Launch itunes, connect your phone, go up to File>Add to library. Then browse to your iphone name (Which is shown as camera in windows Explorer). All the photos and videos should be shown. Select the video you want to copy and click Add. This should copy the video to your pc(given the size, this might take awhile). Then just go to Library>Movies and see if it shows up properly.
