I think you've both JPG and PDF in the same directory. To iterate over only PDF files:

from pdf2image import convert_from_path
import glob,os
import os, subprocess

pdf_dir = r"C:\\Users\\xxx\\Desktop\\folder1\\folder2\\"
os.chdir(pdf_dir)

for pdf_file in glob.glob(os.path.join(pdf_dir, "*.pdf")):
    pages = convert_from_path(pdf_file, 500)
    for page in pages:
        page.save(pdf_file[:-4] +".jpg", 'JPEG')
