Why are my pictures taken with my iphone not syncing to iphoto

Up untl a few months ago, I was able to sync the pictures and videos I took using my iphone to iphoto on my mac. This is no longer the case. Can anyone please tell me how I can fix this. I even tried to go the image capture settings, but there are no options on the left for me to choose from. Help me, please. Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem, after a long discussion with Apple one of their engineers came up with the bright idea of restoring from the original backup via WiFi rather than connecting to iTunes by USB. This should give you a pretty good idea as to whether the photos are there in your backup file, as for instance it said uploading 22 of 863 photos for me, left it overnight to restore from backup via WiFi, restarted the iPhone in the morning and all of my photos had been restored. I have since backed up all photos to a very helpful Dropbox "Camera Uploads" update.
To restore from iCloud via WiFi, on your device:
Open Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
Wait for the device to restart, input Time and Date Settings and Connect to WiFi.
Log in using your Apple ID and select Restore from iCloud Backup. (Ensure it is the iCloud backup with all relevant photos).
Leave device to Restore overnight and restart in the morning!

  • Can I transfer and print pictures taken with my iphone?

    Can anyone, please, tell me if it is possible to transfer and print pictures taken with my iphone. I would need to print out a few pictures, but I could not fina any information about transferring or printing out pictures that are on my "Camera Roll" section of my iphone. Thank you very much for any help.

    When you connect your iPhone for the first time after taking a picture, Windows or Mac will pull up a dialog asking what you would like to do with "Digital Camera" or whatever the USB recognized question is saved as.
    With Windows, it will have "Camera and Picture Wizard" which will copy all pictures and save to where you specify or it will ask if you want to print them. **
    You can also change the default selection somehow to change to a new application if you installed such as Paint Shop Pro or Adobe Photoshop. Note that after you check the dialog box "Remember my choice" whatever the wording is, you have to figure out where to change your choice afterwards.
    With Mac, it has iLife to copy the photos for printing.
    An alternative is to save the photos, then burn them to CD, and take it to CVS or a One Hour Photo shop to do it.
    ** The iPhone will still retain it's captured stills and re-ask the same question again and again until you delete the photographs on the camera application.

  • All photos NOT taken with my iphone have vanished from iphoto

    I have just found that all pictures in iphoto except those taken with my iPhone have simply gone. I have searched for them but they don't appear to be anywhere on the machine. Furthermore, I have two cameras that I have downloaded images from quite happily for years from and now my Macbook can't download from them. It doesn't recognise one and just says there's a fault and it can't download images from the other.
    Can anyone help? 

    The preceding reply is only accurate in part.
    You, too, can influence the way your photos look in an email message read on your friend's computer. You do not say how you enclose the photos as attachments, so I hope you are using the email button at the bottom of the iPhoto window (after having selected the one or more photos you wish to send). Clicking the email button should bring up a dialogue window, asking you to select the Size of enclosure you wish to send: using the drop-down menu, you can select between Small, Medium, Large, and Actual size. The size you select will depend on the eventual use that is to be made of the photos: if this is simply for viewing in the email message, then Small and Medium are appropriate; if the photos are to be viewed more closely, or printed at a relatively small size, then Large might be a better choice; if the photos are to be further processed, or printed in rather better quality, then Actual size is what is needed (actually, you might then simply prefer to send the originals).
    The other selection boxes in the dialogue window are to allow you to include textual information, embedded in the photo file(s). Such information should already have been entered in the Information panel in iPhoto for each photo. Usually, you can leave these selection boxes unchecked.

  • Hi,I am new to I pad. Why are the pictures taken from I pad is not as clear

    Hi,why are pictures taken on the I pad not as clear? I am new to I pad.tks

    Because the camera on iPad was designed to accommodate Facetime.  By the numbers, tells you why.  The rear facing camera is 1.3 Megapixel.  The front facing camera is .7 Megapixel.  In contrast, iPhone includes a 5 Megapixel camera and if you haven't looked at point and shoot or DLSR camera's these days, they all start at 10 Megapixel.  The reality is, iPad camera was never intended to produce camera quality pictures.  In bright light it can take an acceptable picture, but in less than bright light, it is marginal at best.

  • Is there any way to share music from my itunes library with a iphone not synced with my mac?

    I use my itunes with my Iphone, But my husband has an iphone also and wants some music from my library to be put on his phone. How can i do this without transfrring his iphone to my itunes and visa versa?

    No. Ignore the above post as it is completely wrong, & the poster has no idea what he/she is talking about. By design, an iPhone will sync or manually manage iTunes content with ONE computer at a time. Any attempt to do so with a second computer will result in ALL iTunes content being first erased from your phone, to be replaced with the content from the second computer.

  • IPhone not syncing all iPhoto pix even though Gigs of space left on iPhone?

    Hello,
    I have a 16GB iPhone.
    My iPhoto Library is 2.5GB.
    I've "albumed" all my photos in iPhoto.
    When syncing my iPhone I've only selected a couple of albums (no more than about 2GB's worth).
    For some reason, my iPhone won't accept all the pictures I have selected, even though their collective size is far less than the capacity of the phone. Some of the pictures have loaded but when I try and sync again, I get an error message stating, "No photos were copied to the iPhone because there is not enough free space on the iPhone to hold your photos and albums"....even though according to iTunes own "Capacity Bar", I still have 1.75GB of free space left on my iPhone.
    Now, here's something else that is weird that I don't understand.
    My iPhoto library is 2.5GB.
    My iTunes "Capacity Bar" says that the partial amount of photos that I've already synced from iPhoto to my iPhone is 11.62GB?
    How can that be? How can the same amount of pictures be 2.5GB on my computer and 11.62GB on my iPhone?
    Can anybody explain this to me?
    Am I missing something?
    Thanks,
    Justin

    I'm having a similar problem, I have 70MB of memory remaining, which I know isn't a lot, but I have less than 1 MB of photos I'm trying to sync, and it refuses to let me have them. I can put a 50 MB app on at this point with no problem, but this 1MB of photos keeps hitting some kind of wall.

  • Why are my messages green with my iPhone and my husbands

    My husband and I both updated our iphone 4 and the messages between us went to blue for a few days and now they are green again.  His phone is listed as an iphone in my contacts, I don't get why it is green again.  Other people with iphones are blue.
    Thanks for any help.

    They're green because they're being sent as SMS.

  • Why are my pictures coming up as empty grey boxes in iPhoto?  But only some of them . . . .

    This is a bit of a long story, but here goes . . .
    We have iPhoto 8.1.2 on an iMac that has OS X 10.6.8
    Awhile back, after shutting down my computer normally, it wouldn't start up again.  So my husband did a restore and fixed it.  We had everything backed up through the Time Machine and everything seemed happy. 
    But a few days later I tried accessing some pictures and it turns out the last 6 months of our pictures aren't showing up on iPhoto.  When you quickly scroll through the pictures, you can see the thumbnails, but when it stops scrolling, they turn into grey boxes.  When you try to open a picture it shows a big exclamation mark.  You can see the location where the picture was taken though. 
    Anyways, when we look through the backups on the Time Machine they all have the same problem.  We looked in the Originals file, and those dates don't even show up with any files at all.  For some reason, any older Time Machine back ups were deleted to make room for new ones.
    Have I lost all those pictures???  I can't find them anywhere to fix it.  I know a week before we restored the computer all those pictures were there and working fine. 
    Please help. 

    When you empty the trash the files therein are not erased* but instead the space the occupy is made available for re-use. So until that space is overwritten the files may be recovered with an app like File Salvage

    * the exception is with Secure Delete. Then the file is actually overwritten and effectively unrecoverable.

  • Why are profile pictures of friends and family not displaying in my facebook anymore

    Something has happened to the display of friends and family profile pictures when they post. It is just written text and I cannot get their picture to display in conjunction with post as it was before.

    See [[Images or animations do not show]]
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.

  • Why are songs greyed-out in my iPhone's sync queue?

    I fired up iTunes for the first time on a new computer and plugged-in a 2 week-old iPhone 4s to sync about 250 or so songs that were pre-existing on the computer.
    The music is not purchased through iTunes; merely ripped from CDs ages ago. It's music that existed on my prior iPhone (4) with no problems.
    Now, the music won't sync to my new iPhone. It shows up in iTunes, on the device's song list - but greyed-out. It appears to be in queue to transfer, but it won't sync. I have purchased music on my phone that I downloaded via wifi that works fine...
    Any ideas? This is intensely frustrating.

    I forgot to mention that when I look at the playlist that has been tranferred to the iPhone all the ones that won't play and are greyed out have a sync symbol next to the check mark.

  • Why are my purchases made on my iphone not showing in purchases on pc? ********.

    Really sick of paying top dollar for services that don't work correctly.

    What purchases are you asking about?  If they are apps that were purchased on an iOS device they will not be available for anyother device and not show up.  If tunes, is your PC authorized?  Have you tried to sync the purchases to the PC?
