  Even when you import a single photo that I have to cancel because it crashes just forever.  Then, I get the message "No. Photos or videos were found to import".

  The same thing happens with both my internal and external hard drive (trying to import from them).

• If I exported my photos when I import them into another library of Photos, will they still be live photos?

  I plan to export my entire library of Photos on a hard drive, that I will then use import my library to another library of Photos on another computer (with the latest updates). When I export my photos (choosing File > export > export Photos X...), they will still be "live pictures" that is when I import them will be powered?

  For sure if you simply move a copy of the entire library to the new system, you will have all - export and import loses a lot of information and can lose quality if you're wrong - interconnect systems and drag the library photos of the current system to the new system images folder - or use an external hard drive to the Mac OS extended (journaled) format to move in all

• Photos will not import iPhone photos

  I'm trying to import pictures from my iPhone 5 s on my MacBook. However Photos will only recognize new pictures although I have hundreds that have not been imported on Photos or iPhoto. Image capture will not also recognize other photos on my phone. I have no idea how use AirDrop and am completely at a loss on how to get my pictures on my computer and my phone.

  It's a big question, Alicia. I lost of valuable photos, myself and always want to make sure that they are safe now.

  I'm sure you've seen these instructions before, but it also contains information on how you can share photos on all your devices using iCloud photo library. Import photos and videos from your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch

  If these are pictures that you already imported, with your iPhone connected to your MacBook Pro and the Photos app opened, under the "Import all new Photos" button on the top right, you should see a toggle button for "show all". When you click on that, it will display all photos that are found on your iPhone. You just choose the ones you want to import and then click the "Import # Selected" button where the ' # ' shows how many photos you have chosen to import.

  AirDrop is also a great way to transfer photos from your iPhone to your Mac. How to use AirDrop with your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch

  Let me know if this is helped. Thank you!

• Computer will not import photos

  Computer will not import pictures either from camera or SD reader - there are 1,000 images this size would be too heavy for my laptop? I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 2 GB. I click on Photo Gallery - click on file - click the Pictures dialog box - then import appears - no new images on the device.  Any ideas?

  Hi silverfox16,

  1. were you able to import photos before without any problem?

  This error message occurs when you try to transfer the same pictures again.

  You can try to cut and paste the images using Windows Explorer and check.

  Alternatively, you can try to delete or rename the database file that checks the duplicates.

  Navigate to the location next and Pictures.pd4 and rename it to Pictures.pd4.old or remove the file and check.

  C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Photo Gallery\Pictures.pd4 (or sometimes.pd5) and rename

  New to Lightroom 6.  Were able to import photos previously. Now when I try to import Photos and videos, I specify a folder that contains a mixture of NEF and JPG images, and thumbnails will appear.  However, they are grayed out. When I hit Import, I get a message that says no. Photos import active.

  This means that you have previously imported these pictures/videos into Lightroom, and you must not (and are not allowed to) import them again.

  Go to your library Module (not the import dialog box) and find the photos, then you can make use of them in any way you want in Lightroom.

• Photos of the iPhone would not import Photos on Macbook

  I went to download my photos from my iphone to my macbook and I continue to make 'unreadable file' and ' database error: could not persist version. I download my photos several times in the past and a few weeks ago, I have download some pictures before I updated my mac to the latest version of the software. No idea how to fix this error? I am able to put the photos on my computer very well and in a snippet view, but will not import into mac photos.

  As a test Pictures of launch with down option and create a new test library.  Import photos and a test to see if the same problem persists. T it?  If he doesn't want to say that your current library is damaged.

  So, try to repair the library according to the instructions in this document from Apple: Repair Your Library.

  Warning: If you use iCloud photo library with Photos, this operation will lead to Photos to upload all your pictures again (of difficulty missing or incorrect thumbnails in photo - Apple Support).

• Importing Photos lack a lot of photos

  When I plug my iphone to my MacBook Pro, the photos app appears to import the photos. Great, that's what I want! I want just all the picture files in a folder where I can connect to Picasa, which is at the same time a place I have backup source, etc. Duplicates doesn't bother me, but I don't want to miss anything.

  But when I go to the tab import, it shows my iphone but there are only 42 'News Photos' to import. My phone lists 610 photos under "All Photos". I would like to re - import all these to make sure that I don't miss any. I know that some are duplicates, I will sort that out later with other techniques. But I can not find only these 42 random photos that are new... where di the rest to go! The mac is restarted and phone has not changed anything.

  Where I have pictures imported from this phone previously is a complicated story. Probably I was confused at one point and abandoned a partial import, etc. (so many apps to try do.. photos, iphoto, sometimes iCloud, sometimes AirDrop,... oh my). And I certainly imported to a PC several times to clear the phone memory that I can't do it this time because of access restrictions on this computer. So that part is my fault.

  Is there a way to 'reset' what pictures are seen on this phone like new by Photos app? I google endlessly for this solution, which only seems to show solutions for the PC where I delete the .db files. But no solution, I saw worked for the mac and the memory becomes full.

  Hello and welcome to Apple support communities, PumpkinInPortland.

  If I understand your post right, you are wanting to do a new import all photos on your iPhone to your Mac, so that even the pictures that have already been imported are imported again. I certainly understand wanting to make sure that you do not miss the photos and I'm happy to help you to do.

  It is not a way to reset the photos the Photos app sees it as 'new', but there is another way to get all your imported photos. The best way to do it is with Capture of Image instead of the Photos app. Take a look at the steps on how to do that here: Capture of Image: transfer images and other elements of your device after you have successfully imported your pictures from your iPhone, if you want to move to Photos on your Mac, you can do so by dragging the folder of photos from the Finder application to the pictures window.

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  Take care.

• Imported photos display is no longer in 'Photo', is this a library problem?

  My imported photos and videos are in the library, but not visible in Photo mode, from a few months ago.  They are all visible in the "all photos" album, however.  How can I fix it?

  The most common cause is bad dates on photos so you seek all simply in the right place - right click in all the Photos (which are sorted by date added) and select slide show in the command of moments - should open the window of moments with your displayed photos and then you will see the date of issue

  Moments if not open with your photo showing then you have a corrupted - library save your photo library and press the command and option keys while launching Photos and repair yoru database - Note This will trigger a new total to iCloud library download if you use

• Camera with GPS and Photos shows not all contact information when importing photos in pictures

  I have a Nikon AW130 with active GPS. While previously using iPhotos he always imported the exact location when you import photos. I'm using pictures and nothing appears under location. We are on a cruise on our sailboat and spend 10 months foreign traveling or diving in remote locations, geotagging is important. And I'm not geotag pictures of thousands that we take in a season of navigation manually. The Internet is also either not always available or slow and costly iCloud is not always possible. So what is the solution? Thank you.

  Photos will show the locations only, if the computer is connected to the internet after importing the photos. He needs a database of Apple connection to retrieve the names of places.  Pictures don't show latitude and longitude but a place name. If you have an internet connection, you should see a name of places and a small map in the Info Panel for photos.

  

  We are on a cruise on our sailboat and spend 10 months foreign traveling or diving in remote locations, geotagging is important

  Names of places in photos are not a great help in navigation.  Most of my photos of sailing is simply display "North Atlantic" or "Sea of Caribbean", such as the location, but the locations of the pins on the map are correct.  And if you export photos Tags the GPS will be integrated. Just, make sure that you enable empbed location information in the Photos of preferences > General.

  You can check if the GPS has been applied by the camera, if you export Photos photos, open in preview. The Info Panel in preview (Tools > Inspector) will tell you the GPS coordinates.

  

• Cannot import photos from NAS

  Try to import using pictures on OS X 10.11. Import of NAS I see 4400 news but the "import selected x" and "import all new items" buttons are grayed. Disc has 200 + GB of free space, iCloud is disabled in the preferences of photos.

  What could be the cause?

  Thank you

  Andreas

  Andreas, what happens when you select one of the photos in the 'new items' sections.

  The buttons become active then like this?

  

  What is on the NAS?  To import photos or also the photo library?

  The NAS could have temporarily disconnected?

  A library of Photos on a NAS server is not supported. If the library is there you will need to move to a locally mounted drive.

• Photos will create new "moments".

  I use Photos on OS X 10.10.5 1.0.1 (Yosemite).  For some reason, in the view "Pictures" of the Photos program, there is no new 'moments' created since mid-March, even if I imported a bunch of photos taken since then.  The photos can be viewed, for example, in 'Albums' "All Photos", but they do not appear in the 'photo view' because there has been no new 'moments', created under which they would be filed.  Can anyone help?

  Please update the Photos to the current version, which is 1.5. It solves many present problems in earlier versions.

• Importing Photos without end in double - help!

  Hi all, I'm desperately need help, so please can you help me...

  Whenever I connect my iPhone or iPad to my Macbook Air, all software up to date on all devices, the Photos under OS X app offers to import the same (sometimes hundreds) photos that I've already imported a zillion times in my library. I find myself with so many duplicates in my photo library, it ends up a total mess!

  I use iCloud photo library on all devices. Do I need to keep importing photos from my iOS device? I thought all photos taken with any camera will be automatically downloaded on iCloud photo library and close up on my Mac and my local library. Is this correct or should I keep the box "import photos" checked in the Photos app? Most people seem to think that must be kept.

  If so, what should I do to stop these imports double without end ? It makes me crazy!

  Thank you

  David

  No, you don't need to import - doing so will create duplicates

  If you use ICPL then all libraries are kept in sync all the time and you do not manual is important to all
