my samsung digital camera (wb150f) won't connect/download onto my imac (OS version 10.6.8) with iphoto11 (version 9.2.3). Does this mean my computer is too old, or do I need an upgrade and/or new software? Anyone out there who has experienced this problem and know a solution?
iPhoto '11, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
Thanks for the ideas. However, unfortunately, when I connect the camera usb to my computer, iphoto automatically opens, but 'freezes' and never shows the camera as being connected. And then when I tried to access the image capture application, it only gave me a 'no camera or scanner connected' message, and the two options (device/shared) in the top left corner, are not active, so can't click on them either. In any event, FYI, I have been able to open the camera itself and find the photo files. As such, I did a 'select all' copy/paste into a new folder on my desk top. I am going to restart my computer now to unfreeze iphoto, and hopefully, I can just import the pics into iphoto from the new desktop folder. This is a bit of a pain, but seems to be the only simple solution at this point in time.
Try using the Image Capture app located in your Applications folder to import photos from your camera then export to iPhoto.
Mac Basics: Connect your camera or camcorder
Your iPhoto should see the camera and allow downloading if you connect via the USB cable that comes with your camera.
