Limit on the number of photos?

Is there a limit on the number of photos the ATV2 can show from our iPhoto library? I have over 32,000 photos in my library and when I try to see them, only 19,998 show up. I'm missing my last 4 years of photos (19,998 doesn't seem like a coincidence to me).
I can see all albums and events (when I'm using those menus) but they are not in reverse chronological order so the most recent albums and events are at the end of the looooong list (I have more than 750 events in my iPhoto library). This is not practical at all.
And of course, it's taking a looooong time just for the events and albums to show up on the screen. My network is all Apple 802.11n stuff so it should not be the bottleneck. Any ideas?

The limit is based on the 8GB internal storage on the ATV2. I confirmed this with Express Lane support today. ATV2 will try to load your entire library but will stop when it gets to the limit and does not provide any messages stating that the limit has been reached. This means that you will get roughly the first 20,000 of your library, starting with the most recent.
The work around is to select which albums or folders from iPhoto that are to be synced, much like you would do for an iPod or iPhone that can't fit your whole music or photo library. This selection process is done in iPhoto's Sharing preferences where you select Share my photos and choose the second option to Share selected albums. Note that the list will contain iPhoto folders as well as albums.
Once you reach the 8GB limit, you may also have a problem playing the video files in your iPhoto library that appear to have been synced, as the full videos are not loaded until they are selected for playing. Once that is tried, ATV2 will likely crash as the 8GB limit is exceeded. No harm is done to your library that is safe.
This whole process is not well supervised by the ATV2 system as it keeps the user in the dark.

Why can I no longer add photos my iPhoto book? Is there a limit to the number of photos? Must I delete unused photos??

Why can I no longer add photos my iPhoto book? Is there a limit to the number of photos? Must I delete unused photos?

This is book # 13 and I've not encountered this problem before. I am dragging photos into the sourse pane but they are not imported. I have other books w/ over 700 pics (not all used) but this has only 300+ so far. I've copied the book to a pdf and it looks as if I'll have to redo it unless there's another solution.

Is there a limit to the number of photos I can include in a PSE 12 slide show?

I recently took a trip to Ireland and...being the camera addict that I am ...took right at 3000 pictures.
Obviously -- I don't want to include all of them, but I do have several hundred that I would like to put into a slide show.   Is there a limit to the number of photos I can use?
Also, I notice that there's an option for adding a narration.    I'm new to "12",   so .... how do I go about this?
Hope you can point me in the right direction.
Thanks so much,
MarDee

I just discovered that I have the trial version of Adobe Premier.   I've
been playing around with it a little bit and NOW I wonder if it might not
be the perfect program for me to use to create my Ireland travelogue.   I'm
about to the point of thinking that the investment in the program &
upgrading to the "real" thing will be worth the money.
NOW...should I do this, is it going to be better to leave the photos in
their current size (just a step below RAW)   or resize them down to the
size used in email?    That being said --- what is going to be best for
putting on a DVD to share with friends & family.   Looks like AT LEAST 1000
photos.

Is there a limit to the number of photos added to iMovie?

I am trying to add more photo stills to a project but iMovie will not add more than the 495 I have in there. I know it is an enormous amount of still photos but in they are short in duration and I'd like to add about 130 more to complete this project. Any photos past this mark are simply being rejected/not added by the program no matter how many times I try to drag them over even one at a time. Is there a limit? Can I overcome this some how?

I would recommend that you put the photos that you need in order in an iPhoto album.
326 should be no problem. I have done that many or more.
To drag them into iMovie, open the Photo Browser in iMovie and look for the album. There should be an icon for the album. Drag the icon for the album into your iMovie Project. (rather than dragging the photos one at a time).
Since you are having sluggish behavior, I would recommend that you shut down iMovie, restart your Mac, and start over with a new project, unless you have too much work invested, in which case, try the old project first.
Here is a sample of a project where I dragged about 300 photos into a project from an iPhoto album.

Is there a limit to the number of Photos one can use in the Screen Saver?

As the title inquires... I recently help set-up a friend's screen saver to use their entire iPhoto library as content. The library has about 2,800 pictures. When the screen saver engaged, the 'Looking for pictures...' dialogue came up, and 10 minutes later it is still there. I am hoping that it is just indexing these photos, and once complete the screen saver will kick in, and future activations of the screen saver will kick in more quickly.
If not, what is the limit? And, if you are from Apple and are reading this, why did you not include this information in an easy to access location, so that going through all of this would not be necessary.

There is no limit as to the amount of pictures the screensaver can use. However the more pictures there is a slightly longer loading time. HOWEVER still, it should not take 10 minutes for 2800 pics. It shouldn't even take a minute.
It would be a little helpful as to what computer your running and what OS, but here is a good suggestion.
The first thing you want to do is to make sure you have the most recent updates for the OS and iPhoto. (Use the software updater)
Next you should repair disk permissions. Go into apps, into utilities, open disk utility, click your hard-drive on the left, and click repair disk permissions. When thats finished (10-30 minutes depending) restart the computer. For reasons that I'm not quite sure, disk permissions fixes many problems and glitches you may encounter.
Try setting you screensaver again.

Does iMovie have a limit on the number of photos that can be downloaded to iDVD?

I have created an iMovie with 426 photos and is 39 minutes long, but when I try to download the movie to iDVD the download quites unexpectedly. I've tried downloading the movie twice with the same result. I am using iMovie 9. Is this problem fixable? Or is the movie too large to download to iDVD?? Please help!! Need answer ASAP!

There is no limit I know of. 39 minutes should be no problem.
Have you tried SHARE/MEDIA BROWSER in Large size?
Then add to iDVD through the Media Browser. It's at the bottom right of the iDVD window.

Is there a limit to the number of images in a slide show?

I am making a slide show for an event and would like to use lots of pictures, is there a limit in the number of images in a folder? the number of images in a slide show?

is there a limit in the number of images in a folder? the number of images in a slide show?
None that I know off. But why are you asking? Did you notice any performance problems or problems to render the slideshow? Then it would help to know more about your hardware RAM, disk, CPU ..
If you already encountered problems, you may wish to have a look at this thread - although it relates to Aperture 3, not 2:
Is there a limit on the number of photos you can use in an Aperture slideshow?
And as I said in that thread:
I'd expect the limiting factor to the length of a slide show to be the patience and "Good Will" of your intended audience

Quick Answer: Yes.
If you are looking at My Photo Stream, check this out: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4486
How long are My Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud?
The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them.
How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with My Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream. For iCloud Control Panel 2.0 to 2.1.2 users, the path isC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream .

How many photos and videos can be stored in a shared stream?
A shared stream can hold a maximum of 5000 photos and videos combined. When you reach your limit, you must delete some photos or videos before adding new ones.
How long are iCloud Photo Sharing photos and videos stored in iCloud?
The photos and videos you share (and the comments or Likes associated with those photos) remain in iCloud until you or the contributor delete them manually, or until you delete the shared stream completely.

Is their any limit on the number of column updates in a update statement!

Hello All,
Is their any limit on the number of columns to set in a single update statement.+
am using oracle 11g .
example :-
UPDATE FMLY SET as_comp1 = v_as_comp1 , as_comp2 = v_as_comp2, as_comp3 = v_as_comp3, as_comp4 = v_as_comp4 , as_comp5 = v_as_comp5 , perslt18 = v_perslt18 , persot64 = v_persot64 , fam_size = v_fam_size , numchild = total_children , C_AGE1 = v_c_age1, C_AGE2 = v_c_age2, C_AGE3 = v_c_age3, C_AGE4 = v_c_age4 WHERE FAMID = fmly_famid(i) ;
and also is it good practice to issue single update or multiple updates ?
example for the above update i can have multiple statements like .. does the performance matters if so which is good
UPDATE FMLY SET as_comp1 = v_as_comp1 , as_comp2 = v_as_comp2, as_comp3 = v_as_comp3, as_comp4 = v_as_comp4 , as_comp5 = v_as_comp5
WHERE FAMID = fmly_famid(i) ;
UPDATE FMLY SET perslt18 = v_perslt18 , persot64 = v_persot64 , fam_size = v_fam_size
WHERE FAMID = fmly_famid(i) ;
UPDATE FMLY SET numchild = total_children WHERE FAMID = fmly_famid(i) ;
UPDATE FMLY SET C_AGE1 = v_c_age1, C_AGE2 = v_c_age2, C_AGE3 = v_c_age3, C_AGE4 = v_c_age4 WHERE FAMID = fmly_famid(i) ;

If you can do it in a single SQL statement then you should do that.
Here's a mantra that I found to work out pretty good:

Is there a recommended limit on the number of custom sections and the cells per table so that there are no performance issues with the UI?

Is there a recommended limit on the number of custom sections and the cells per table so that there are no performance issues with the UI?

Thanks Kelly,
The answers would be the following:
1200 cells per custom section (NEW COUNT), and up to 30 custom sections per spec.
Assuming all will be populated, and this would apply to all final material specs in the system which could be ~25% of all material specs.
The cells will be numeric, free text, drop downs, and some calculated numeric.
Are we reaching the limits for UI performance?
Thanks

Is there a limit to the number of email addresses in one message?

Hello
Is there a limit to the number of email addresses in one message with Mac Mail?
I am trying to send out to c900 email addys and am being told my server does not recognise the email addresses. I will check with the folks hosting the email also.
Many thanks
Matthew Causon

Ooh, yes, 900 emails at once will absolutely not work (unless you get very very lucky).
If this is just a one-off, you should group the addresses into, at the very most, 50 addresses, and send batches. If you're doing this a lot, I would recommend using something like DirectMail.

Is there a limit to the number of addresses can I put into a group of multiple users in my address book?

I have just started using Thunderbird and want to set up a number of list groups in my Address Book so that I can simply click on the list name and the email goes to multiple people.
Is there a limit to the number of addresses that I can put into each group? Or, can I put as many addresses into each group as I want to? Thanks for your answer.

Thunderbird has no limit.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_FAQs_:_Create_Mailing_List

In my Mail program (4.6), OS10.6.8, can I send bulk email bcc? If so is there a limit to the number of names/addresses that I can send?

In my Mail program (4.6), OS10.6.8, can I send bulk email bcc? If so is there a limit to the number of names/addresses that I can send?

To add the BCC field to the message window, create a new message, click the 'three lines' button near the to and from fields & select the 'BCC Address field' or choose the 'customise' option. This button may be a 'gear' on the older OS (I don't recall for 10.6.8 Mail).
The BCC field is more likely to be limited by the email server than Mail app. If you add hundreds of addresses (or use large groups with many addresses) the email server may assume you are sending spam. Sometimes it causes the server to drop the message or bounce them, different providers also have different rules, so you need to use bcc & ccc with care.
If you plan on doing mass mailing you would be better with a service that handles it correctly for you (i.e. sends multiple messages without using ccc or bcc).

Add Folder - is there a limit to the number of files you can add in one go?

I have a fairly large collection (60GB+) of 192kbps mp3 files which are stored under My Music in a folder structure of Artists / Album, e.g. "My Music \ ACDC \ Back in Black\ Hells Bells.mp3"
I recently bought an ipod and having installed itunes I wanted to add all my music. I figured out that the way to do this is to go File / Add Folder and select the "My Music" folder.
However, itunes starts adding the mp3s and stops at the Bruce Springsteen folder. At this point the itunes library can see all the "A" folders and the "Bs" up to and including Bruce Springsteen. If I try the process again nothing happens.
However, if I then try to add a specific folder e.g. "My Music \ Charlatans" it works.
This suggests to me that the Add Folder option has a limit to the number of files it can process.
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated as I'm not looking forward to manually adding a hundred or so folders.
Windows XP

Well the part about putting songs in the "iTUnes Music" folder I only brought up because it seemed you liked things very organized. You could use iTunes to so all the organizeing. Plus once you add something to the iTUnes library, if you change ANYTHING about it in windows explorer, like its name, change the name of the folder its in or move it to another folder, iTUnes "Looses Track" of it. Its not like other programs that "Watch" files and folders for changes outside its "iTUnes Music" folder
But to have iTUnes auto search, you have to delete a hidden pref file. After doing this, when you open iTUnes again it will throw up a setup wizard, just like its the first time ever installing it. Its in this wizard where you get your ONLY chance to have iTUnes auto search and add files from the system. Just goto the link below and follow Scott P's steps
