I cannot upload photos from iPhoto 9 to Flikr. When I attempt to do so, I get the message "the login details or auth token passed were invalid." Please help.

I cannot upload photos from iPhoto 9 to Flikr. When I try, I get the message "the login details or auth token passed were invalid."  I am using iPhoto 9 version 8.1.2, and my OS is 10.9.5. My computer is a MacBook Pro. I do not have this trouble with my iMac.  This trouble started before I updated to OS10.9.5.  I do not have this problem when uploading to FaceBook or sending by e-mail.
This problem started when I tried to upload some photos after hitting the "use other account" tab. This took me to a Flikr site asking me for permission to make my iPhoto information available to others.  I clicked "yes," and then I changed my mind and clicked "no." I haven't been able to upload to Flikr since.
I searched Flikr and Yahoo for a solution, and Yahoo says the trouble is in iPhoto.  I checked my Flikr account, and iPhoto extensions are enabled.
I need to upload some school and alumni photos, so I sure could use some help. I am Not computer proficient.  Thank you.

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

  • Suddenly cannot upload photos from iPhoto to websites like ebay

    I am attempting to create listings on Ebay and cannot upload photos from Iphoto like I used to.  This happened on another website as well where I attempted to upload photos from Iphoto onto the site and it wouldn't work.  I was able to upload to Facebook and use the pictures that way, but cannot do that for Ebay.
    With the Ebay issue, I'm able to get to Iphoto by clicking on the browse button in Ebay, but when Iphoto comes up, it's frozen and I can't move the page at all. I'm have to "force quit" Safari to even be able to continue using the computer.
    I am using a Mac Mini, Mac OS X Lion (Version 10.7.5).  Safari is Version 6.1 (7537.71).  All software is up to date.
    Thanks in advance!!

  • Cannot upload photo from iphoto to facebook on notebook

    I have a new Macbook Pro. When signed into Facebook and wanting to upload a photo I am having problems. When I select upload and pick iphoto the application will not open. Any ideas?

    Sharing to Facebook directly from iPhoto does not work well right now.
    See this fix posted by LarryHN:

    If the above does not work, export your photos from iPhoto and then upload them from the Desktop using Facebooks uploader.

    iPhoto should Import. What are you trying to use? How are you doing it?

  • Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.

    Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.
    i can select the picture but when sending it, an error symbol appears.
    Any ideas ?

    This doesn't work for me at all. I tried entering exactly the same information that I used to set up my regular email account and I'm still getting an error message. I even tried switching to using my gmail account and neither one worked. Then it got hung up and had to repair my database! I have a lot of photos on my Mac (thank goodness they're backed up) and I was really sweating it for a moment.
    Apple is so easy until it's not. I find this to be really aggrevating and I'm irritated that it hasn't been fixed. In fact I did an online search and someone described this same problem in detail and it was exactly what was happening to me. Same error messages.
    I'm frustrated that Apple keeps updating it's operating system and then we go through these glitches.
    And while I'm at it, I have never had such a frustrating time using my login information as I have to get into this forum! Why do they make it so difficult? There's just something about the way it's worded that get's me messed up every time. Meanwhile, at least get iPhoto fixed!

  • IPhoto states server did not reply so I cannot email photos from iPhoto

    I cannot email photos from iPhoto.  I checked the outgoing mail server and port and they are correct. When I try to email photos the message i'm getting is the server did not reply check your internet connection and try later.. but my internet connection is fine. Any suggestions? I have Yosemite 10.10.3 software installed.

    Do you have two-step verification enabled  and are trying to mail from your iCloud account?
    Then check this solution:
    If you had two-step verification enabled, you have to set up an app-specific password for iPhoto, if you want to use iPhoto as a Mail client.
    See the post below:
    Re: I am using iPhoto version 9.6 and I can no longer get an email sent with a photo attached. I get an error message saying the email did not go through because the server did not reply. I can send the photo with Mail. Help!in response to Gary Kissler
    This solution is for those of you using 2-step verification for your Apple ID and are using iCloud as the mail server that you are trying to mail photos with.
    I too had this issue. The problem in my case occurred because I had setup 2-step authentication for my Apple ID. If you have done this then you will get the error message "the mail server did not recognize your email/password...". To solve the problem go to:
    https://appleid.apple.com
    Click "Manage Your Apple ID"
    Verify your identity with the device you selected (if this step does not show up then you have not likely set up 2-step authentication and this is not your solution)
    Click Password and Security in the left column
    Click Generate an app-specific password
    Enter iPhoto as the name of the app
    Copy the password and paste this into the password box in iPhoto where you would normally enter your apple ID (in the mail account section in iPhoto preferences).
    And...voila' (I hope)

    The window doesn't automatically pop up now. When you plug the card reader in, you should see a 4th option on the lower bar of the photos app. I think it says camera. Tap on that then you can see and inport your photos.
    If you are still having issues, try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. It won't hurt any data but can clear gliches.

  • Why can't I upload photos from iPhoto to Facebook any more?

    Since I updated to 10.9 I am not able to upload photos from iphoto (v.8.1.2) to facebook.  When I try to upload the "publish" button is not highlighted so I can not click on it.  I used to be able to upload from iphoto all the time.  Is there some setting that I have to change?

    Upload directly from iPhoto. Select your photos and then select Share. iPhoto questions are best handled in the iPhoto forum of all places.

  • Uploading photos from iPhoto to Photo Stream

    Hi, I'm trying to upload photos from iPhoto '11 (9.4.2) on my iMac onto Photo Stream. It's a set of 43 imported directly into iPhoto from a USB stick, so not taken on any iOS device connected to the same iCloud account.
    Photo Stream is enabled in iPhoto and is working fine with the preferences I've selected - I'm not using automatic upload for all new photos.
    I've selected and dragged the photos from their Event in iPhoto onto Photo Stream in the sidebar under RECENT. This behaves as I would expect and when I select Photo Stream and look at the contents it says Uploading 43 photos to the right of the title at the top of the Photo Stream window. However it said that 15hrs ago and they're still not there!
    The only thing I can think of is whether the date the photos were taken (19-Feb-13) is relevant - they were updloaded on the 12-Apr-13.
    Any help would be appreciated, I couldn't find anything out there that alreadyprovided a solution.

    If you have your iPhoto/Photo Stream setup as shown in this screenshot
    you can delete the photos from the Photo Stream and they will be safe in your iPhoto LIbrary.
    But I would check each monthly Photo Stream Event in the library to confirm that they are safely in the Event before deleting from the Photo Stream.
