iPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem writing to the volume containing your iPhoto library.
my batch of 500 photos is stuck between 2 worlds - it's not on my camera and it's not imported into iphoto. I have it in a folder on my hard disk and it just doesn't import into iphoto. I've tried creating different libraries, that doesn't work either. I can view all the photos via preview but need them on iphoto. sometimes a few do get imported and most times I get the message: "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem writing to the volume containing your iPhoto library." I would greatly appreciate any help to resolve this.
