Why can I no longer upload photos from my camera to iPhoto?

When the camera is plugged into the iMac (recently updated to Yosemite), iPhoto recognizes the device but the screen seems to freeze with "Loading..." in the area where the photos usually appear prior to selection for importing.  I opened the Photo Library First Aid which is initialized by opening iPhoto with the Option and Command keys depressed.  I did not run Repair Permissions but did run the other three.  This is the first attempt to load images from my camera, a Canon G3, since upgrading to Yosemite. 

No images make it to the screen to capture.  The familiar screen appears recognizing the device with the boxes for Event Name, Import Selected, etc. but there are no images (thumbnails) in the larger area where images usually post.  The box at the top right show "Import 0 Photos".  Just below that in the thumbnail area, "Loading..." appears but there is nothing indicating the machine is processing; no blinking, no turning wheel, zip.  It's not a matter of the image thumbnails making it to the iMac screen yet being unable to do anything from there.  There are simply no images making it from camera to the open "Import" screen.  Thank you, though.

  • Why can I no longer "save photos" from e-mail/Facebook??

    Since up-grading from iOS 5. To iOS 6.01, I can no longer "save photos" from e-mail/Facebook!  Any one know what I need to do??

    Go to Settings>Privacy>Facebook and see if saving photos has been allowed.
    Go to Settings>Privacy>Photos and see if FaceBook is turned on - if necessary.
    And go to Settings>General>Restrictions>Privacy>Photos and check there as well.

  • Why can I no longer drag photos into an album in iPhoto 4?

    iMac G5, OS 10.4.6, iPhoto 4.0. I can't drag any photos from the library to a new album. I was trying to show my wife how to do it (she is a moderate believer) and it didn't work. I have 5200 photos in the library and have had no trouble previously. Do I have a problem with my iMac or am I just not doing something correctly?

    There was no "com.apple.iPhoto.plist" in the Library>Preferences.
    However, I restarted the beast and am able to work with iPhoto as in the past. My wife was impressed with the help, not with me. Thank you for your rapid response.

  • Iphoto no longer uploads photos from my camera after an upgrade

    I upgraded to OS X 10.9.4  (Mavericks) and then my computer no longer recognized my version of Iphoto. So I upgraded that and now Iphoto (9.5.1) recognizes my camera but will not upload the photos. There was never any problem before the upgrade. I am finding this very frustrating.

    Maybe this fix posted by Robin will work for you:

    Mar 20, 2014 7:15 AM (in response to JdinPa)
    I figured out the fix for the Mac users having this problem. I connected my iPhone to my iMac and started iTunes. A dialogue came up in iTunes, I OK'd that and then OK'd the usual "Do you trust this Mac" that comes up on my iPhone.
    Others have reported success with it.

  • Why can I no longer import photos to iphoto library from the internet with a right click?

    Why can i no longer import photos from the internet to my iphoto library with just a right click?

    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. Basic stuff:
    - 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.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.

  • Why can't I delete uploaded photos on iPad 2

    Why can't I delete uploaded photos on iPad 2. I can select and share but the delete icon is "grayed" out

    You can only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc directly in the iPad's Photos app.
    For photos that were synced from your computer you will need to move/remove/de-select them from where they were synced from on your computer and re-sync - or if you want to delete all synced photos then you might be able to do so by swiping across the 'Photo Library' line in Settings > General > Usage > Photos & Camera (that should give a 'Delete' button, but I haven't tried tapping it to see if it works).

    Why can I no longer add photos my iPhoto book? Is there a limit to the number of photos? Must I delete unused photos?

    This is book # 13 and I've not encountered this problem before. I am dragging photos into the sourse pane but they are not imported. I have other books w/ over 700  pics (not all used) but this has only 300+ so far. I've copied the book to a pdf and it looks as if I'll have to redo it unless there's another solution.

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

    When you enable Photo Stream on your devices, only new photos you take or import to those devices will be automatically added to your Photo Stream. Existing photos won't.

  • My iPhone 4 is unable to upload photos from the camera roll onto facebook. Keep getting the message "unable to upload now"

    My iPhone 4 is unable to upload photos from the camera roll onto facebook. I keep getting the message "unable to upload now, try later"

    I suffer same.  AppleCare can't seem to solve the problem.  I did a restore from backup. Then I did a restore as new phone (virgin). Then I did a restore as a new device and then backed up from a stored backup (which does not replace media).  To no avail.  Some days it works fine, and on others it's extremely bothersome. The major symptoms:
    1. It can take 5+ seconds to delete a photo.
    2. It can take 10+ seconds for the camera app to activate. In many instances, the moment is long gone.
    3. Switching from camera to video can take 5+ seconds.
    4. Saving a photo that's been optimized in iOS 5 can take 30 seconds. Absurd.
    Note that Photos and Camera aren't the only affected applications. What'sApp can have the same issues on occasion. Voice Memos don't respond like they should, either.  I suspect that there's some behind-the-scenes operations with network feed to which iOS gives its full attention (contrary to the UX getting full attention is is historically the case). This makes the user interface painfully slow at times — and, as most of us here would agree — painfully annoying.  This might have to do with changes designed around iCloud, but I'm not even (yet) using it.
    The bottom line is that what used to be a quick, pretty good phone camera is now totally lackluster and unreliable for fast shots.  Sometimes I think Apple spends too much time worrying about form and not enough about function.

  • I recently re-loaded iphoto, and now am unable to upload photos from my camera - saying there is insufficient disk space

    I recently re-loaded iphoto, and now am unable to upload photos from my camera - saying there is insufficient disk space. does anyone have a solution?

    Assuming you have space on your disk, then it could be a symptom of a damaged Library.
    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 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. .
    Regards
