How do I ask iPhoto to stop sharing select photos with Flickr ?

I have selected some 200 photos to "share" with Flickr, unknowing it meant synching, not just uploading.
Now I want to remove some of those photos from Flckr but want to keep the local copies on iPhoto (9.5.1) in my Mac intact. I hear removing on Flckr side would cause the one in my Mac to be removed also. I don't want this to happen.
So before doing so, I would like to cancel sharing of this photo. But I see no way to undo sharing. Is there a magic key stroke to cause sharing to end?

You can not cancel the sharing of a photo
You can log out of Flickr =in iPhoto and the the syncs will not occur
You can remove the photo from the Flickr shard set with removing it from the iPhoto library by selecting the photo in the Flickr album on iPhoto and pressing delete - this will delete forma he Flickr album on iPhoto and from Flickr but not from the iPhoto library

Iphoto has stopped sharing my photos to facebook

My iphoto 09 has stopped exporting/sharing my photos to facebook.
I always uploaded in this manner earlier, but for some strange reason, it doesnt work with a click of a button anymore.
If I click on the FB icon, after selecting the respective album, it comes up with this massage, ' Do you want to set up iphoto to publish to FB? Though it already was set up...
Neverthless, I do that, I select - Set up- after which, it takes me to my preexisting FB page, in a little window...where I can navigate withen it...but then there is no other option...except, 'cancel'. So I end up clicking/selecting, 'cancel'.
My mac book OS is 10.7.5.
Please advice.
Am I doing something wrong...?

Appearently there is an issure between iPhoto and FB - there are many reoports of this - one work around is to export photos to a desktop folder un use a browser to upload from there
And someone posted a suggested solution a week or so ago - I have no idea as to the validity of the solution but some people seemd to find it helpful - you can find it by searching the forums (maybe even in the more like this list) and see what you think about it

How do you get iPhoto to stop autocropping/zooming photos within a frame?

I have hundreds of odd shaped images and I don't want to have to manually "fit to frame" hundreds and hundreds of images?
Can I turn off the autocropping or zooming function so Apple uses my actual picture dimensions? Or at least is there a way to batch "fit to frame"? Thanks for any help! Scrapbook we must deal with issue all the time.
Cheers,
Lorili

If you're referring to iPhoto books and photos in the frames on the page there is a Fit Photo to Frame Size option. Command (right)-click on the photo on the book page and select Fit Photo to Frame Size from the Contextual menu:
An extreme example of it is shown here:

How do I get iPhoto to stop asking to merge MobileMe Albums?

How do I get iPhoto to stop trying to merge MobileMe Albums? I don't have any! I never did!!! The problem is that each time I open iPhoto it wants to merge something that doesn't even exist.

When the "mobile Me" alert panel appears, select the "Learn more" button, not o.k. Ignore the web page that will open,
Then open the "iPhoto preferences > Accounts" panel and remove the Mobile Me account.
Also open the System preferences , go to the "Mobile Me" preferences and sign out of Mobile Me.

HT5129 how do i get iPhoto to stop bothering me with Mobile Me Migration windows when everything's already on my hard drive?

how do i get iPhoto to stop bothering me with Mobile Me Migration windows when everything's already on my hard drive?

Click "More Info", not "o.k.".
Then open the iPhoto Preferences "Accounts" tab and remove the "Mobile Me" account, if it is still there.
Quit iPhoto.
Check, if "Mobile Me" is still enabled in the System Preferences > Mobile Me panel (if you still have this panel). if yes, sign out.
Log off and on again.
Test, if iPhoto still is bugging you to transfer your Mobile Me content. If yes, you need to delete your iPhoto Preferences from your User Library.
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist
And also remove the file
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto/mmsunset.plist
from the Caches in the User Library - this file contain the end date of Mobile me.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Select any photos you want to share with the Apple TV using the iTunes advanced menu (using iPhoto is the better option but a folder will work). Once all the photos you want are shared, go to settings > screensaver on the Apple TV and choose which of those shared photos you want to use with your screensaver.

How to sync photo with flickr ?

I used to sync my photos between iphoto and flickr, and I can't find a way to sync from "photos" with flickr.
Any solutions ?
Thanks,
David

Sounds like in order to get those on the computer you might need to use an APP or 3rd party software to get them to the computer.
if you sync photos with itunes it will take them off and delete them because the photos are not on that computer anymore

TS4118 How do I stop sharing my calendar with someone I now share it with?

I do not know how to remove someone from sharing on of my calendars on my iphone 4.

Stop sharing a calendar
Click the Share button to the right of the calendar’s name.
Do one or both of the following:
Deselect the checkbox to the left of Private Calendar.
Deselect the checkbox to the left of Public Calendar.
Click OK, then click Stop Sharing in the dialog that appears.
A private calendar becomes unavailable to all participants. A public calendar is removed from its URL and becomes unavailable.

Yosemite. iPhoto has stopped sharing pix via email. Have tried removing and re-adding accounts. This is a new problem. What gives??

I recently had a new hard drive installed and upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.1 on a Macbook Pro. No problems for the first week, then iPhoto 9.6 stopped sharing pix via email. I tried removing and re-adding my accounts but that didn't help. Thanks in advance for any advice. Ra Buck.

PS. IPhoto doesn't seem to connect, but I'm not getting an error message.

HELP - how do I Stop Sharing Every Photo on Every Device?!?!?!?

Why have Apple decided that I want to share all of my photos with every single device?! I DON'T!!! There are thousands of them and they fill up devices so that apps no longer work - a totally stupid idea - can anyone please help before I delete iphoto!!!!

You do know, don't you, that your first post gave us absolutely zero information from which to work with in offering a solution. If you havn't fixed your problem yourself give us the following:
System and exact iPhoto versions
What devices you're syncing to and how
If you have an iCloud account and if it's activated
And you can leave the attitude at the door.

Iphoto 9.6 shared photostream photos are in trash

I just updated to iPhoto 9.6 after installing Yosemite. When I clicked on the iCloud tab it asked me to activate iCloud photos. I said yes, and the shared albums I have on my phone and iPad show up as expected. The problem is that the photos themselves do not show up. I noticed there is a folder in my desktop trash (not the separate trash file in iPhoto) named iPhoto. In that folder is all the photos from the shared photo streams. I have no idea how they wound up there. The photos appear in the proper albums on my iOS devices. Anyone else having this problem?

I have the same problem, with a slightly different preceding step. After upgrading to Yosemite & installing iPhoto 9.6, I opened iPhoto and everything seemed to be as it should be. I then imported some photos. All was still ok. I tried to add some photos from that new import to an existing shared photo stream, and they wouldn't upload. No new photos appeared in the photostream. I then opened iPhoto preferences, and iCloud Shared Photostreams was turned off - note that it had always been on previously. I reenabled it, and after spinning for a very long time, my newly selected photos for uploading were added to the photostream, but ALL of the other photos from that photostream and every other shared photostream were moved to Trash - not iPhoto trash but directly to desktop trash. I was smart enough to pull them out of trash and set them aside so I don't lose them permanently, but this looks like a major defect in iPhoto 9.6. Shared photo streams are NOT preserved properly across the upgrade.
Note that the existing shared photostreams appear to never re-sync after this, so there appears to be 0 photos in them until new ones are added.

How do I "Add to Library" when iPhoto won't recognise selected photos?

A few months ago I was unable to import photos from the same Canon camera I've always used with iPhoto. Despite a number of steps taken, the problem has not resolved.
As I was getting a few erratic problems I decided to rebuild the computer (back up, wipe hard disk, re-install all software,etc.). I then imported the photos from the camera as usual. Last night they imported properly. Tonight those new photos are do not appear in the Library window of iPhoto. Those new photos are, however, in the iPhoto folder. When I try File/Add to Library, I get the message "Unreadable Files: 1 The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognised file type or the files may not contain valid data). The message then gives the path to the library "Users/Shared/iPhoto Library/2005".
Extra information:
*iPhoto Library in a shared folder so that my partner can access them from her Account;
*there are 2500 photos in my library;
*the photos are in .jpg format;
*I've always used the same camera - Canon IXUS v3;
*they imported OK yesterday but have disappeared today;
*I get the same result whether I try to Add to Library one photo or multiple folders of photos.
*I've read a few threads on these discussion pages but the answers don't seem applicable - if only because of the inconsistency (ie importing OK yesterday and being problematic today)
I'd be grateful for anyone's help!
iMac & iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I think I understand now. I am thinking you placed these files in the iPhoto Library folder yourself. You need to drag them to the desktop and import them from there, by either dragging them into an open iPhoto viewing window or using the command File>add to library within iPhoto.
Some more info for you:
--First thing to know and remember is this...Do not drag any images, folder of images into the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Images have to be imported into iPhoto within the application. Do not scan images and save them into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Save them to another location such as the Pictures folder or even the desktop. You can then import them into iPhoto.
If you have already put files/folders in the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder then you will also find out that if you try to import them into iPhoto you will get an error message. No worry, just drag them to the desktop and import from there.
--All images that you import are shown in the library view. You can choose how you want to view, by rolls, by date, by rating, etc. When you put images in an Album, slideshow, book, etc, you are actually just putting pointers to those images in the library. You are not adding more images. If you delete an image from the Album it will still be in the library. If you delete an image from the library it is deleted from iPhoto's database and your hard drive (unless you have it backed up somewhere else)
--You have a folder of images on your hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Drag the folder of images into an open iPhoto Library window and the folder of photos will be copied into the library, resulting in a new roll with the name of the folder. You now have two copies of those photos, the ones in iPhoto's database and the ones on your desktop. You can keep the ones on your desktop that you just imported as backup or you can delete that folder.
-- you scan a picture/pictures and save it in a folder. You cannot scan directly into iPhoto or the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder.
You want all your photos in iPhoto so you import them into iPhoto.
Now you have two copies of that picture/pictures, so you can delete the originals that were in the scanned folder and keep the one/ones that were imported into iPhoto.
-- You download pictures from your camera into iPhoto.
There is now one copy of each of the pictures. (DO NOT HAVE IPHOTO DELETE THE IMAGES FROM YOUR CAMERA! DELETE THEM MANUALLY WITH THE CAMERA-if something goes wrong with the import and they are never imported and then they are deleted from the camera you might end up losing those images)
You want to change something about a picture you imported, such as
cropping it or changing the size, or changing the orientation.
Once you do that to a picture, you now have two copies of the picture
in iPhoto, the original and the edited one. The edited one will be in the library organize view. The original is packed away in an Original folder in your iPhoto Library folder under the date of the roll. You can always revert to the original by control clicking on the photo and choose "revert to orginal" You will not have this choice if you used iPhoto Diet to get rid of the Originals.
(a quick note on cropping within iPhoto...when you are in edit mode, you automatically will be in the crop mode with cross hairs to highlight the crop area. To finish cropping you must click the crop button and then go back to library view and your cropped picture will be there.
3.You want to use Photoshop or another graphic program to edit a picture in your iPhoto library.
You can open up prefs for iPhoto and choose "when double clicking on
photo ..do" choose "other" and select Photoshop. Now you can edit all
pictures in your iPhoto library in PhotoShop by double clicking. If you save the photo with the same name and as a flattened file it will be saved right into iPhoto and you will see the changes. If you don't want to save it into iPhoto then do a "save as" and save to the desktop. You will then have the original photo still in iPhoto and your new edited photo on the desktop.
Or, with iPhoto open, you can drag a picture from the library window
to your desktop (you see a + sign on the pic you are dragging). You now
have two of the same picture, one in the iPhoto library and one on your desktop. You can open up the one on your desktop in any graphic program and work on it. The one in iPhoto stays the same. You can also share/export the picture/pictures to your desktop or folder to work on them or do batch processing, etc. You will still have the originals in your iPhoto Library.
Or, you can open up the ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/folders and option drag any
picture out of the folder to your desktop. Notice that you will see a plus sign while dragging the photo. This is copying the file to your desktop
I would advise anyone not to do this as they might forget to use the option key and drag the photo out. Next time you open iPhoto the photo will be missing.
Two Apple kbs for you to read
Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
About the iPhoto Library folder
Don't forget that in Library view you can Control click on any picture and get a contextual menu with many options. One is to revert to original.

How can I get iTunes to stop downloading iTunes extras with movies?

How can I get Itunes to stop downloading the movie extras? We never watch them and they are wasting space on my harddrive. Each time I delete them, Itunes redownloads the extras.

Thx, and I agree.
I'm selecting that "my question has been answered" here - because the answer is NO. It's apparently not possible. Which is frakkin' ridiculous, and I'd love to be proven wrong. But that's how it appears to be.
What I ended up doing was first backing up all my data by downloading an app called DiskAid (free, Windows and OS X), and actually digging through my iPhone's folder system until I found the right Applications folder, and clicked through each subfolder until I found the Apps whose data I wanted to copy.
For anyone who ever needs to do that, the location is:
/user/Applications/[long string of numbers]/Documents
I was able to back up my apps on my home computer. So I still am not able to sync up any part of my phone at my work computer, without risking deleting these files. Basically I've minimized the possible damage by making backups.
Whatev. I'll live. : ) Beautiful phone. Just so irritating.
