Since updating my iphone to ios16 I cannot import my photos on my iMac

I, too, with my 2012 5,1 Mac Pro am stopped at Mojave without resorting to patches, and such. With 32 Gb Ram, a 2 Tb SSD and 3 2Tb spinners for TM and backup clones, it's hard to justify a move. We also have a 27" iMac, an 11" MacBook Air and another MacBook with later OS's, but this MP is my workhorse.. One day a Sudio Mini, unless there is a really tempting new Mac Po in the future without breaking the bank.... Several applications to update if moving on, MacDraft, Photoshop, already subscribe to Office 365.. Just need to get his fixed!

I am having this problem also. I receive the error "The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.ImageCaptureCore error -9956.)" whenever I try to import MOST photos after upgrading to IOS16. I can't tell why it will import a few but not most of them. sometimes it imports jpeg, png, mp4 files... but it doesn't import most of the photos. it even doesnt import photos that have been imported in the past but removed from the Photos app.

This is kind of an outrageous flaw. Been using Apple products since 1988... i get bugs and all but, this one is really bad. Plus, its almost a month and still no fix... this really needs to be fixed faster! This always worked, and the upgrade ruined this.

running Mojave 10.14.16 on iMac

running IOS16.033 on iPhone SE

I have the new iOS update 16.0.3 on my iPhone 12 and still can't transfer my photos from the iPhone to my Apple computer. I found a work around for Apple's problem but they need to fix this ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!

*Workaround: This takes much more time but if you email yourself a few photos at a time. Then add them to the computer this will work.

We should not need to do this. Before the update my iPhone 12 worked like all my iPhones going back to my 4s. You could import all your photos to Photos on my Mac all at once and have them deleted from your iPhone at the same time.

Apple please fix this BIG/HUGE mistake on your part and fast.

Thank You,

I have exactly this problem, very frustrating as I have two iMacs running High Sierra which I use for work.

I have spoken to Apple Support twice for a considerable length of time and they seem to be aware of the problem, but as yet nothing has changed, currently running iOS 16.0.2 on iPhone 11.

Also my Battery life on the iphone has halved after this update.

I can upload phots from the internet to the iMac and also from the iPhone to a Windows Computer with no problems.

Was considering buying a new iMac but definitley having second thoughts now!

Just downloaded, Installed the iOS16.1 Update on my iPhone 11 Pro Max, and Image Capture works nicely! Maybe even better, but I was able to offload several photos as a test! Thanks Apple!!

(2012 Mac Pro/Mojave)

Lots of people with the same issue at the moment.

Can you use the image capture app to copy to a folder then import from the folder?

Has your phone definately trusted the mac?

How about restarting in safe mode, then trying?

If that doesn't work, try creating a new user account and trying from that.

same, im getting error 9956 in a Mac Pro 5.1 V10.14.6, and 9937 in 2010 MacBook Pro with iPhone 11 & iOS 16 updated

I have a similar error except it is -9956

"Too old." So Apple gets to decide when to brick our devices? Nice.

Kenneth Mclauchlan, on Catalina, normally it works.

But, an update should be released soon. Some users say that IOS16.1 beta 3 fixes the image transfer problem. It will be available in a few weeks.
