Which version of iPhoto are you using?

In iPhoto '11: Look for your camera’s icon in the Source list in the sidebar. If the icon is there, click it. iPhoto should open in import view, and you can select the photos to import.

In iPhoto I can see the camera icon in the sidebar. I have tried clicking on it many times but nothing happens. I also have iPhoto '11. You will never guess what AT&T told me to do. They told me to go to Wallgreen's and download my phone there. This was the 3rd time I had gone to them to fix this problem. I'm going to try the help page you suggested. Thank you so very much for your input. I'll let you know if it works.
