9.4.2 version of iphoto does not recognise duplicate video's...

...... when you import to libary from finder?
anyone noticed this or know how to fix it?

It warns me of duplicate video files.  Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
     User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • IPhoto does not recognise iPhone since upgrade to iOS 5.1

    iPhoto does not recognise iPhone since upgrade to iOS 5.1. Have tried every suggestion I could find but to no avail. Using iPhoto 9.3 and IOS 5.1. This has only started happening since upgrade to IOS 5.1
    Image capture does not recognise iPhone device either, yet iTunes synchronises ok

    Any helpful suggestions to resolved this issue welcome!

  • Exported my video from Elements 12 but Powerpoint does not recognise the video file. How can we do it?

    Exported my video from Elements 12 - format mp4 but Powerpoint does NOT recognise the video file. Why?

    .wpl appears to be a Windows Media Player playlist. I can find no conversion software for that, and Windows Media Player is not available for Mac anymore.
    If you can persuade him to download iTunes and create the playlist as mp3 in a iTunes playlist, or even just burn the base mp3 files to CD as a data disc, that's about the only solutions I can suggest.

  • IPhoto does not recognise the raw files(.NRW) from my new Nikon camera model P7100,any advice please as running latest version of iPhoto(9.2.1)

    Since changing my little everyday camera to a new Nikon Coolpix P7100 iPhoto cannot import any of the raw files(.NRW),says it does not recognise them.
    I have updated iPhoto to the latest version(9.2.1) but still cannot open them.
    Any ideas please

    The raw from the P7100 is not supported at this time.
    The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
    Therefore the Raw for every camera model needs to be added individually. If yours is not supported then let them know you want it:

  • IPhoto does not recognise camera since synching with new iPhone

    Ever since I've setup my new iPhone, Iphoto will not recognise my camera (Panasonic DMC-FX36); even though it recognises the iPhone camera OK. I've previously used the Panasonic camera without a problem and this has only started happening since synching the iPhone for the first time (not sure if this is coincidence or not).
    I can't find anything in iPhoto that suggests any settings have changed... I've also tested an older camera (Canon iX series) and found the same problem.
    Most frustrating as I have a heap of photo's of my newborn daughter and no way to share them... and a sinking feeling that I may lose them... any suggestions appreciated.
    Cheers

    Thanks, I should have mentioned that I've tried Image Capture without luck...i.e. no device connected. The Camera actually asks for the prompt PC or Pictbridge... I've always selected PC, now the camera just freezes after I select the PC option... I have a card reader in my printer, but same problem, device not recognised.... Do you suspect it would be the camera or the iPhoto app?

  • LR4 import dialogue box does not recognise duplicates (and then it does)

    I have a strange problem. Since I upgraded my LR3 catalog to LR4 I have had trouble with the import dialogue box not recognising duplicates and thumbnails but if I cancel the import and try again it all seems to work.
    The problem: I have the ‘Don’t import suspected duplicates’ option selected on the import dialogue however when I open the dialog box any duplicates on the memory card are still shown and often the thumbnails only show for the first 20 – 50 photos.  When you cancel the import and open the dialogue box again the thumbnail images start popping up and all of the duplicates start disappearing from the dialogue box until they are all gone.
    The situation: I am using a retina MacBook Pro running the latest version of OSX, although the problem first started when LR4 was released and I was running it on a c. 2008 Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro. I import a range of files from iPhone photos through to Canon 5D Mk III photos using a CF/SD card reader as well as plugging straight in to the iPhones with a USB cable.  My catalog is currently sitting at around 70,000 photos.
    When I got the new retina MacBook Pro and first installed LR4 I copied across my catalog files and photos etc and this problem did not exist.  It started happening again after I copied across all of the hidden system files (presets, keywords, preferences etc.)
    Any ideas much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Nigel.

    Hi Pitmonkey,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    If you are having issues with your iMac automatically ejecting disks, I would suggest reading over and following the troubleshooting steps in the following article. I know there are references to an external SuperDrive but the troubleshooting is for built in SuperDrives as well.
    Apple Computers: Troubleshooting the slot-loading SuperDrive
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2801
    Accepts discs but they don't mount or are automatically ejected
    Make sure the drive is not placed upside down. The aluminum enclosure should be facing up as shown in section 1.
    Check the disc's surface for scratches and dirt, since these things can prevent the disc from appearing on the desktop.
    Connect the MacBook Air SuperDrive directly to the computer's USB port instead a USB hub.
    Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
    Ensure your drive can read the specific type of disc being used. The System Profiler or System Information may provide additional information regarding what media your computer supports.
    OS X Snow Leopard v10.6 or earlier: Open Apple System Profiler by choosing "About this Mac" from the Apple () menu. Then, click More Info.
    OS X Lion v10.7 and later: Click the Apple () menu and then hold down the Option key. Choose System Information from the menu.
    If the disc continues to not be recognized, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • Most recent version of iTunes does not recognize my video iPod, what to do?

    I have a video iPod that I got last year and had it synced to my Windows XP on my desktop and I had recently synced it with my Macbook and had no problems with videos, pictures, movies, etc. I got a new iPod nano red and went to put music in it, but I had to download the latest version of iTunes. Just a few days ago I was able to still use both iPods on my MacBook. I just tried to put new videos on my video iPod and I get an error message saying: "the video was not copied, because this device does not support this file." I tried to authorize this computer, that didn't work. I tried converting the selected video, but I get an error(-50). I don't know what to do, any ideas? I appreciate anyone's help. THANKS!

    Kevin .... I'm with you. I have the same problem. iTunes 9.0 / Windows 7 ... how we actually talk to someone at Apple to get a fix? I got a brand new $800 windows cpu ... that is a brick when it comes to iTunes. If anybody can help us, please let us know.

  • Iphoto does not recognise my cameras anymore

    Up to a week ago my iphoto 11 running snow leopard worked fine and now when I connect my 2 canonixuis 85 is the computer does not see them nor does it open the iphoto program. 3 weeks ago I got the new Lumix waterproof (i think FT3) and it connects fine though has it's own lead. I tried a different lead for the canons and still nothing.
    A little frustrating as have a heap of photos to download onto the computer. I searched last night and they said to go to disk utility and do a repair disk permissions and still nothing (but I didn't have the camera connected nor turned on.
    I keep the computer always updated so can't remember if in the last few weeks there was a update that may be causing this glitch.
    Any help from anyone would be much appreciated.

    Thanks for your help, very much appreciated, but I have identified the problem. Once I deleted the nokia sync software (for photos and videos only), turned off the computer and came back later, turned on the computer and hooked up the 2 cameras everything worked fine.
    Just to be a pain to myself I loaded up the nokia software again and bingo the computer no longer sees my cameras - deleted software again and yes the computer and iphoto now see the cameras.
    Just for additional info the nokia software allows the the so called sync to happen but iphoto opens but it doe not prompt for photos / videos to be downloaded straight into the iphoto but into a folder on the system via the nokia sync software and then you go into iphoto and imovie to do a import into those programs. What I am guessing is this round about way of getting photos into a location that you are use to is a little painful, and I believe it interrupts with other cameras and since they don't have additional software nor can nokia sync see them the connection sits in limbo land meaning while the nokia software for n9 is there nothing else can be downloaded from other camers.
    Solution - delete nokia sync software from the computer and use works computer (PC) to down load the odd photo and video to a usb stick and bring it home.
    Hope this helps someone else out there.

  • IPhoto does not recognise my Facebook log in details

    This is the first time I have tried to log oto Facebook from iPhoto 11.
    After 4 hours I am defeated.
    I have checked that my Facebook account Platform is open.
    iPhoto icon appears under the Facebook Apps page under the Platform setting.
    I have changed my Facebook log in and password to ensure that both Facebook and iPhoto are singing the same tune.
    I must be doing something wrong that is really basic.
    When iPhoto asks for the Facebook settings - It requires:
    email address
    password
    I am entering the same data in these two fields that I use to log into Facebook.
    It appears that I have managed to set up the correct data in iPhoto by using iPhoto Preferences: Accounts: Facebook
    But when I go to a photo and Share and Facebook then I get the message "Facebook did'nt recognize the login information you entered for the account (my email address).
    Is this problem?
    Because my facebook email address is not the name of the Facebook Account. The email address is used to log into the account.
    Please help I must be really dim on this one
    Thanks in advance
    Tony

    I have an update.
    I control two accounts at Facebook.
    One is my personal account and the other is our local village hall.
    I have been trying to connect my village hall Facebook account to iPhoto. See posting above.
    I have now deleted the village hall facebook settings from iPhoto and replaced with my personal account settings.
    Hey presto!
    I have iPhoto connected to Facebook.
    So, I deleted my personal settings in iPhoto and replaced them with the village hall settings.
    Back to where I was before no connection from iPhoto to Village Hall Facebook.
    Any ideas out there?

  • IPhoto does not recognise my iPhone 4S

    iPhoto has stopped automatically importing photos from my iPhone 4S when it is connected. It now doesn't even recognise it is there - yet iTunes does.

  • IPhoto does not import HD video/MTS files for Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5.

    Hello, everyone. I'm using iPhoto '11 on an iMac i7. I recently bought the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5, which records HD video (AVCHD Lite). When I insert the memory card into my iMac, it recognizes and imports all photos. However, the videos are left on the memory card, and I cannot even view them in iPhoto. When looking directly in the memory card, I can see the videos (they are MTS files), but nothing will play them. Is there other software I must install to be able to view/edit these video files. I'd like to see them in iPhoto, and then edit them in iMovie like I was able to with my standard definition camera. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I have the same camera as you. You can import the files, but you have to convert them manually first, witch takes a couple of secounds.
    1. Download and install the automator script from this blog and put it in your dock http://blog.sharkus.com/2010/04/avchd-lite-iphoto-importing.html
    2. locate the folder /Private/AVCHD/BDMV/STREAM on your memory card
    3. Drag your desired videofile (e.g. 000001.mts) on the automator script you put in your dock in step 1.
    4. whait (a couple of secounds, depending file size)
    5. Drag your new videofile (e.g. 000001.mts.m4v) to iphoto
    6. Finished
    Do not try to convert more than two files a once, then the script doesn't work properly.
    I hope apple will include support for mts-files very very soon!!

    Help!!
    I have created a pdf file in Adobe Writer Version 6.0 Standard with bookmarks and a comprehensive contents page with links.
    If then viewed in any version of Adobe Reader other than 9.0 works fine. Can anyone tell me if this is a known issue and if there is a work around.
    The majority of the thousand or so folk that need to use my created pdf are only able to use Reader Version 9. Those with 6, 7, 8, etc are absolutely fine.

    I have only just started to use Firefox as I got very tired of IE. I watch a lot of flash/flv videos on many different sites and sometimes like to download some of these (which I could do on IE but couldn't here). I downloaded the add on "download helper" which was great and worked really well and easily but all of a sudden it now no longer works (the icon is still there but it won't recognise any type of video form any site at all - and I have no idea at all how to repair/fix it.
