Q: Show all photos on iPhone to import to iPhoto

I was trying to import some photos and videos from my iPhone to iPhoto when my computer froze, so I quit the program. iPhoto now thinks that the images have already been imported to my albums, so they are no longer showing up as images to import from my iPhone. Is there something I can check in iPhoto to show all photos/videos on my phone and not hide the ones that have been imported? Need them to show up so I can select and import! Thanks!

OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), iPhoto 9.6.1

Hello angela1321,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

If you quit iPhoto when it was importing and it is not recognizing the photos anymore to be imported, then you can run through the repair processes outlined in the article below. Make sure to back up your iPhoto Library before going through the repair process.

Take care.
