When uploading my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto on my mac, is there a way to keep them in the albums I already have them in on my phone?
when uploading my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto on my mac, is there a way to keep them in the albums I already have them in on my phone?
No. All imports go into a new Event. How many new events are created is determined by what you set in iPhoto's General preference pane in regards to how Events are autosplit during import:

When i imported photos from my iphone to iphoto they show as a box with a dotted outline
I uploaded photos from my iphone to iphoto. The event boxes say no photos. But in last import, they are all there as white line outlined boxes. I can see them when I scroll but not when I stop. If I click on one I get a triangle with an exclamation point.
That's an indication that iPhoto has broken the link/file path to the original file. make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) 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 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - 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.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - 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. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Import photos from my iphone to iphoto on my mac
I am having a problem importing photos from my iphone 5S to iphoto on my MacBook. It has been preparing to import for hours.
HHi, thank you for the reply. I have checked my iPad and iPhone and neither has iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled. Turned off in both. Photostream is turned on.
i tried to sort it out by dragging all the photos to Events on the Mac and then deleting them from iCloud - (left hand side of iPhoto under the section 'Shared'). the photos now show up in Events. I did force quit but the issue remains. The message reads ' photos are bing imported to the library. Please wait for import to complete.'
i can't empty iPhoto trash either. The message read "Delete error. Please wait for import to complete.'
WHen I was moving the photos to the Events I always had a message about duplicates - to the effect that the photos already existed, did I want to import them? I clicked on Yes, import all duplicates. But when it showed the images - duplicates side by side - one showed the photo and the other was blank.
I really don't know what to do! And I don't know how to handle my iOS devices. Is it to do with the large number of photos? Any help, advice appreciated. -

When i put photos from my iphone to the stream
when i put photos from my iphone to the stream, can i delete them from the phone?
No, the Stream is used to sync photos from one device to another, not to store them long term. Always sync photos to a computer to archive them. Once there, you can delete them from your device.

when I email photos from my iphone, firefox will not let me open them in yahoo.mail as jpeg images, only firefox documents
Two weeks ago I posted this, but no one replied telling me how to correct the problem.
I think Firefox engineers need to improve Firefox between now and the next up-date to make it adequate to handle all major websites. There aren't many websites used by as many people as yahoo. So why have Firefox engineers ignored this deficiency in Firefox? -
I have uploaded my photos from my trip to iphoto from my iphone and the folder is still there until events and photos but the photos are nowhere to be found. Please help!!
Please explain and provide details
What versionn of iPhoto and of the OS?
the folder is still there until events and photos
What does this mean? In iPhoto folders are organizational elements adn can not hold photos - folders hold other folders and albums (in the source pane on the left)
Are you photos in the last import list?

How do I import my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto, when I press import I just get a message saying there is something wrong with one of my photos and disconnects my iPhone.
I couldn't find Image Capture at my first try, butI will try again. Do you inow how I can find the corrupted photo on my iPhone? Im a bit lost..
Sorry, I just noticed, I made a mistake. "Image Capture" is in the Applications folder, not Utilities. And it may have a different name on your Mac, if your system language is not English: Look for the icon with the camera:
When Image Capture can import from your iPhone, spilt the folder with the imported photos in several small subfolders and try to import them separately to iPhoto. This way, you can identify a subset of photos with the corrupted one.
Then try to import from that small subset one by one, until you hit the culprit. And then delete that photo or video from the phone. -
When I send photos from my Iphone to an email address they never arrive. Any thoughts?
When I send photos from my iphone to an email, the email seems to send, but the email never arrives at it's destination. Can someone help me fix this?
Thanks.Has you email ever worked. Are you receiving an error when you send the mail, or is it just sitting in your outbox? Is it just a single individual that is not receiving your mail? Have you tested sendng mail to another individual whos email address you know is valid?

When I try to download photos from my iPhone to iPhoto, it says:

How do I get photos from ios7 iphone into iPhoto or aperture on my OS 10.8 iMac
Anyone know how to transfer photos from ios7 iphone into iPhoto or Aperture on my OS 10.8 iMac?
Thx. I thought that was what the various manuals were telling me to do but it wasn't working. Your confirmation was useful in that it prompted me to double check (again) my usb connection (in its highly inconvenient location in the back of my iMac). Voila. "Always suspect operator error."

How do I transfer photos from my iPhone to iPhoto?
I have a MAC desktop and have always transfered my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto with no problem. After several weeks of not transfering photos, I sat down to do so today. However, iPhoto does not show my iPhone in the "devices" menu as it usually did. I waited for quite some time assuming maybe I had too many pictures ... but it never showed up. I disconnected and tried two more times, each time with no success. I have not changed any of my settings and my phone was unlocked prior to being connected to the desktop. Any other suggestions?

Does your phone show up in iTunes? If yes, try to start iTunes first, after the phone is recognized close it again, then launch iPhoto and see if it is recognized. -

I recently purchase an ipad2. I also have a mac laptop. Now, when I facetime call using my iphone to my ipad2 or mac, it states busy. how can i fix this problem? I have the same apple id e mail for both ipad2 and mac. it might be getting confuse now. I want to be able to face time also using my ipad2 to my laptop especially if one of the members of the family is traveling. Thanks.
thanks. your answer was correct, clearer. I have another question, maybe you can answer. I just purchase my ipad2 2 days ago. yesterday, there was a sound. today there is no sound. there is a sound only in movies and you tube and music. but no sound on all apps and keyboards. I look it up and seems like ther are few that have this problem. I called walmart coz I bought it there and they told me that they have not heard that before but if I can't fix it, just return it and exchange it with anew one since I have 14 days to do that. I tried rebooting it and still won't work. Should I just restore it?

I am trying to download photos from my camera to iphoto on my mac book (which I have done many times before). This time I am getting an alert that saysThe photo “IMG_5965.JPG” could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found. How can I fix this?
There is a fair likelihood of an explanation of this symptom

You may have to research any newer possibilities in trouble-
shooting or resolving issues by use of iPhoto Support page.
Since I don't use iPhoto as a primary editor or storage, the
details on the topic aren't so good. I prefer ToyViewer editor.
•iPhoto Support
•iPhoto Video Tutorials
Hopefully the error is easily corrected.
Good luck & happy computing!
