iphone photos not showing up on iphoto

Same problem.

After USB is connected, iPhoto shows iPhone name with "(0)" photos.

Same whether iPhoto is open or closed before USB is connected.

Same whether iPhone is on or off when USB is connected.

Rebooting iPhone did not help.

Relaunching iPhoto did not help.

Rebooting Mac did not help.

OS 10.8.5

iPhoto '11 9.4.3

IOS 7.0.2

Same question! I've been having this problem since I upgraded to Mavericks & the latest iPhoto. 😟

having this too.

OS 10.5.8

iPhoto 6.0.6

IOS 7.0.2

seems like IOS might be the common factor, APPLE; seriously FIX THIS.

Not sure if this will help any of you, but it worked for me. I was having the same problem. However, I had recently moved all of my stuff to a new Mac. My phone was showing up in iPhoto, but no pictures. I tried opening in image capture and there were still no pictures. I opened it with iTunes and there was a pop-up asking if I wanted to trust this computer with accessing my phone/photos. There was then a push notifucation on my phone where I had to select trust. I did that, switched back over to iPhoto and all my pictures were there. I hope one of you will be able to do the same. Good luck.

I have the same problem, and telling the iPhone to trust the computer doesn't help.

Previously I have moved photos individually by attaching them to an email on my iPhone, saving the email to Drafts and then saving the image from the email on another computer, but I now have 4 GB of photos I need to import to my computer for a film class project.

iPhone 4, iO; 7.0.3

MacBook Air; OSX 10.8.5

SOLUTION:

Use iExplorer

The photos are in a folder called DCIM.

I was able to drag the 100APPLE folders containing all the photos from the DCIM folder to my desktop.

Good luck!

This quick-fix worked for me (iPhone 5 version 7.1.1) after similarly choosing "Trust" but not getting any response and after attempting the iTunes fix mentioned above with no success:

I simply went to Settings / General and switched the Auto-Lock function to "Never". The images instantly appeared in iPhoto. I imported and when done with the transfer restored Auto-Lock to the usual 1-minute interval.

Not ideal – entering the passcode and selecting "trust" should function as intended, but as a quick fix maybe it will work for you, too.

FINALLY. This is the only thing that has worked for me, and I have no idea why it works. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Yes turning off the restrictions did the trick. I have an itouch 4 with ios 6.1.6 and I turned off all the restrictions and autolock the restarted the ipod and I am able to access the old pics i had on there. I get that apple wants to protect us and secure our privacy but sometimes the steps you have to go through to access your data on devices is crazy.

Appreciate this post is over 3 years old now, but anybody who has this problem to date may appreciate another solution which fixed it for me as non of the above did. If you use any other photo storage device on your computer, in my case it was DropBox, this was conflicting with iPhoto, as soon as I deleted dropbox the photos showed up on iPhoto straight away.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU poetsofthefall! This worked for me. I'd tried everything and was desperately searching for something more current. This was it!

i don't have dropbox but i still have this issue... is there anything else i could try??

Not sure how to delete Dropbox from just one computer. My situation is that in the iPhoto on the desktop i see 23 pictures from my connected iPhone 6s, but the iPhone itself has several hundred photos, movies, panoramas, etc that don't show in iPhoto. So i can't even copy the photos to my computer since only a small few of them show up. Any ideas? Maybe if i could delete the Dropbox it would help, but how to do that on just one computer?

i had this problem too. opening photos app on phone instantly brought up all iphone photos in iphoto.

Thanks, opening ITunes solved this for me too :-)
