Q: Having trouble importing photos from camera

How do I import pictures from my camera to "Photo" on my MacBook Pro?  I have checked all the connections from the camera and the camera is on...when I click on import In the Photo application on my Mac, nothing happens....except a little circle goes around and around!

I had my Mac program upgraded this Spring. Before that all my photos were in "iPhoto"...now they are in "Photo" .  Do I have to do something to allow photos to be imported from my digital camera?

MacBook Pro (13-inch Late 2011), OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)

    If you are not importing does Photos work properly? What camera? How are you importing (USB Cable, card reader, ?)?

     

    And it is a good idea to keep up to date so update to OS X 10.10.5 and Photos 1.0.1 - that might help (although probably not)
