iPhoto 6 will not import .thm files

I have a Konica-Minolta A200 that I used taking vacation photos. Somehow I changed the settings on the camera and when I copy photos to my hard drive each photo contains a .jpeg file as well as a .thm file. This goes for photos as well as videos. I am able to see all of the photos with Graphic Converter, but when I try to import into iPhoto, I get a message stating that the photos that also contain the .htm files are unreadable. What do I need to do to import those photos? Do I need to convert to some other format? It will not read the .jpeg or .thm files on those photos.
Thank you,
Vikki

Hi Vikki,

If you can open your photos in Graphic Converter, I would go ahead and use the SAVE AS option, use the jpg extension, and save to your dekstop or a folder on your desktop. You can then try import into iPhoto by simply dragging folder or image into iPhoto or iPhoto icon located on your Dock. Try one, if it works, do the rest of your images this way, save all to a folder and import folder...

Good luck, Rick

Vikki:

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. That camera will shoot jpg, RAW or RAW + jpg. It looks like you've selected RAW + jpg . The jpg is sort of a large preview file. It's apparent iPhoto does not support the Minolta RAW format. So until they do you should set the camera to shoot just jpg only.

Do you Twango?
