Why can't I import photos from my CannonZR70 into iPhoto 08?

Since updating to Mac OS X 10.7.3 I can't see my CannonZR 70 in iPhoto so I can import my Project Linus pictures. I have iPhoto 08. I cannot find the Source so I can check to see if my camera is supported. Help!!!
Do I need to update to iLife? (I was able to take a picture with my iPhone 3G and import it... but want to use the Cannon)

It worked just fine until I did the update to get to 10.7.3.
I am using the card option on the Canon when I take pictures of the blankets.
When I go to the VCR setting, usually the import operation would come onto the screen in iPhoto 08. Now nothing happens.
I have always had one end of the cable hooked to the DV port on the ZR70 and the other to the firewire port.
Thank you for any advice or assistance,
Gayle

Why can't I download photos marked as NSMenultem into iPhoto?

Why can't I download photos marked as NSMenultem into iPhoto?

Where are these files from? That does not sound like an image file. With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
from where are you downloading?
where are you downloading to?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

Why can't i import photos from my Samsung Galaxy SII

In the past I have been able to import photos from my phone, a Samsung Galaxy SII. For some reason, I am no longer able to do this. When I connect the phone by USB, two "cameras" appear under Devices in iPhoto. One titled "NO NAME" and one titled "Untitled". Both appear to be empty, neither has any photos available for download. However the phone appears to be functioning properly in all respects. I can take new photos and see in the Gallery that there are any number of images which I have not yet downloaded to my Mac.
Does anyone have any suggestions for troubleshooting this issue?

A couple of people have mentioned an issue with this device. It appears that the OS is not storing the images in the standard way. Can you use another method to get the pics to your Mac? Bluetooth?

Why can't I import photos from my iPod Touch to iLife?

I just tried to import photos from my iPod, and after selecting the photos I want, I pressed import selected and then I get a screen saying that they are unreadable files in an unrecognized format. I have loaded hundreds of photos this way before and this is the first time i've had any trouble with it.
Any ideas on what to do?
Many thanks,
Will

Why can't I download photos from my iPhone to iPhoto?

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

Only thing I can link it to is the Location services. somehow the phone thinks I can't allow anyone to download images that reveal my location... even on my own computer. A programmers oversight, but i can't figure out how to ALLOW it again!
HELP!

Importing photos from old iPhone into iPhoto

I've just upgraded an iPhone and am trying to get the photos off the old one onto the computer. Using iPhoto because that's what I've used before. The iPhone is connected via USB and iTunes recognizes it but iPhoto doesn't show it at all, so there's no chance to import anything. Any ideas why the device is not showing up to iPhoto, even while it does show up to iPhoto? Be advised, I have not backed up to the Cloud at all so Photo Stream is not enabled.
And a secondary question: why in the heck would iTunes be set up, under the Photos tab, to import photos FROM the computer TO the iPhone? That's all I can get it to do at least. Why in the world would I want to move photos in that direction, if the iPhone is the camera and the comptuer hard drive is the storage device?

So you can view pics from your computer on your iphone. For most, then iphone is not the only camera they ever use. In fact, it is likely not the main camera you would use.

Why can't i import photos from a different user account?

Why when i import photos to iphoto from my user account it works fine. If i try importing them from the other user account it the photo it shows the event folder in the events page but when you go into it there are no photos, and when you close the app it dissappears completely. I dont understand why it is doing this? The iphoto library is actually from the other user account so there shoudnlt be any sharing issues. The only thing is that i iorignially installed on the other user account but it all started when i updated it to iphoto11 and installed it on my account. that shouldnt make a difference though??
Also if it is not possible to be able to import from both accounts how can i change it so that the other account is able to import only and not from my account?

I have the same iphoto library selected for both user acounts
How?
and share my photos is checked on both accounts from preferences.
If they use the same Library, why are you sharing this way?

Why can't I import photos from desktop

I am unable to import photos into my iphoto from my desktop. An error comes up after I file/import/desktop/photo saying this:
unrecognized file type, the following files cannot be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data).
The images I try to import are scanned into a photoimpression program, than I save as to my desktop as a .jpg image.
Can anyone help?

Yes, it is an ordinary folder on the desktop and I get the same warning when I just try to drag the image into iphoto. The same thing happens when I try to take a picture from a CD where I have photos saved. I've tried save as with those as well on to the desktop and no luck, in a folder or not.

Why can't I import photos from iPhoto to Photoshop Elements 6?

I've got Photoshop Elements 6 on my iMac desktop running OS X 10.7.4. When I click on File>Open in PE6, my iMac Finder opens. I then select Photos and all my iPhoto and Photo Booth files open. But I cannot click on (well, I can click on them but nothing happens) any photo to pull it into PE6. It seems a simple operation, but apparently not for me! Any help getting this application to work would be sincerely appreciated! Thank you.

You can't do it that way. The iphoto library is for iphoto's own use, and poking at from outside iphoto is the fastest way to corrupt it and lose all your photos. You have two choices:
1. Set PSE as your external editor for iphoto and open all images from iphoto, not by using File>Open.
2. Export the photos from iphoto, open the copies and save them, then reimport the edited photos as new files.

Why can't I download photos from my cellphone to iPhoto?

When I connect the cable between my Cellphone (Vodafone) to my iMac, nothing happens. iPhoto does not recognize my Cellphone. Do I need to install Vodafone software so iPhoto recognizes my phone? I purchased a special cable from Vodafone designed to transfer images from phone to computer.
I download pics from my Canon 20G, Sony Cybershot and Canon G6 with no problems. I love iPhoto.

Hi Nancy,
I may be missing something, but Vodafone is the service provider correct? What phone do you have (example: Motorola V3, Moto V3i, etc)? Does it have Bluetooth? It is much easier to put the photos on your computer first then transfer them into iPhoto.

Problem Importing Photos from Aperture 3 into iPhoto '11

I store my photos in Aperture 3, but import them into iPhoto to create calendars, cards, etc. I usually work with RAW or high resolution JPG images in Aperture. However, when I import these into the new iPhoto '11, it automatically converts my RAW images into very low resolution images (e.g., 100-200k instead of at least 1-2MB). I cannot seem to find an option to change this. This was not a problem with the old iPhoto. To import, I start in iPhoto, then click "Show Aperture Library", then drag my photos/folder. I would like to have an option to import images as RAW files, or just high res JPGs.
I know I can export my Aperture images to the desktop, then import them into iPhoto for a temporary fix, but that is such as hassle, especially since iPhoto and Aperture are supposed to work well together. Thanks for any suggestions!

Aperture creates preview images that contain all the adjustments you've made to the master image. These previews are what is shared with other apps such as iLife or if you drag and drop an image out of Aperture to another app or the Finder.
The size of the previews is controlled in Aperture Preferences. Open Aperture Preferences and click on the Previews icon at the top. In the bottom of this dialog there is a popup menu titled "Photo Preview". This is the setting that controls the size of the image Aperture shares with iPhoto. Change this setting to the size you want.
But wait, you're not done yet. Changing this setting does nothing until a new preview is created in Aperture. If you right click an image in Aperture there is a menu item near the bottom named "Update Preview". But what you really need is "Generate Preview". Right click the image and then hold down the option key and you'll see "Update Preview" change to "Generate Preview". Choose "Generate Preview" and a new preview will be created using the new size setting you made in Preferences. You need to do this for each and every image you wish to share at the larger size. You can select multiple images before selecting the "Generate Preview" command to speed things up.
Now when you share an image from Aperture to iPhoto the new larger file will be used. The advantage of smaller previews is your Aperture library will also be smaller but the trade off is what you get in other apps that are using your images.

Import photos from SD card into iPhoto

Santa gave my wife a new camera for Christmas and I am trying to load photos from the SD card using the SanDISK MicroMate (plugs into USB port) that came with the card. My daughter also got a camera, a Digital Blue Disney micro that uses a cable to attach to the USB port. Neither will show up in iPhoto, Image Capture, Windows Media Player, or in a finder window. Both do show up (with correct information as far as I can tell) in the Apple System Profiler. The Digital Blue website states that they do not have Mac software, but that Mac users can plug in to the USB and drag and drop as a "mass storage device". With our old camera, I used a compact flash (CF) with a compact flash reader that plugged into the USB port and never had any problems. The CF always showed up in iPhoto and the finder windows. Any ideas out there. I will probably be upgrading to a 2.4 GHz iMac soon, but would like to solve this before that happens. Thanks for your help.

The SanDisk website has a PDF owner's guide that says the following;
Macintosh Disk Icons: When you connect the MicroMate Reader/Writer on a Macintosh operating system, a removable disk icon labeled
“untitled” representing the MicroMate Reader/Writer will show on the desktop when a card is inserted.
It also has directions to drag the removable disk icon labeled “untitled” to the trash to remove the disk. There is also a support link to a ebox page on a secure site that won't let me go farther (I think I need a newer browser), so I can't find drivers.
My problem is that the icon doesn't show up and I can't find it in any applications I try. I know the Disney camera is a toy, its for my 5 year old, but I am having the identical problem with both the Disney camera and SanDisk.

Importing photos from Nikon D5000 into iphoto

I just got a Nikon D5000 and cannot import my photos directly from the camera to iphoto using the USB cable supplied with the camera. I have no trouble when I use my D80 camera - plug it in to the USB and iphoto starts importing automatically. What am I doing wrong? I even tried using the Nikon Transfer software that came with the camera, but no luck there either. I have already made sure the connections are tight, camera is on and in play mode. I don't know what else to try. Very frustrating...grrrrr.

Lisa, attach the camera to your Mac, and then launch Image Capture. See what is set as the default whe this particular camera is connected.

Why can't I import non photographic jpg images into iPhoto?

I'd really love to use this feature as I have some vector based jpgs I'd loive to sue in a calendar! They are now jogs but when I try to import them it says
" the file could not be imported" import failed

What color profile are these pics? This kind of issue is often caused by importing CYMK or Greyscale pics to iPhoto which only supports RGB.
Try open the pic in Preview, then use the Tools -> Inspector to check the color profile.
