Added a photo but iPhoto not recognising it as a face in my library

Ive added a few pics, these of of people who already are tagged in Faces.
ive been to the faces source list, and the pic isnt there in any of my faces, how do I make iPhoto pick it to be one of them, it doesnt even come up with a suggestion.
if I pick the photo, it ask me to add a missing face, but it isnt a missing face as its already in my Faces source?
Am I missing something here?
cheers

select the new photos one by one and click names in the tool bar -it the face has a square on it click it and name it - it it doesn't click on the add a face and put a square n it and name it
iPhoto does not always identify every face - sometimes you still have to do it manually

I want to email a photo, but iPhoto says it doesn't recognize my email/password combination.
What do I do?

in the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete your e-mail account and reenter it

IMHO the better solution is to set Apple mail as the email client in the iPhoto preferences

We have one iPhone3s w the lates ios6. have selected iCloud backup for photos but do not see any photos when I log on to iCloud

we have one iPhone3gs w the lates ios6. have selected iCloud backup for photos but do not see any photos when I log on to iCloud. How can I get all my photos from the iPhone3GS to iCloud?

You can't see inside a backup file on icloud, thus you can't view your photos at icloud.com.

My ipad 2 will not connect to the internet I've tried to manually enter it but its not recognising it or finding any connections. I've reset it to factory settings twice and its not clearing it. Does anyone have any ideas??

My ipad 2 will not connect to the internet I've tried to manually enter it but its not recognising it or finding any connections. I've reset it to factory settings twice and its not clearing it. Does anyone have any ideas??

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Iphoto not recognising jpeg file

I have a Sony Nex-5r camera. Up until yesterday I could upload photos from camera to iphoto not a problem. For no reason that I can pinpoint iphoto now comes up with a mesage stating that the files are not in a recognisable format and I can't transfer them from my camera. I use a usb cable to conntect to my Mac.

It's a minor database glitch, so let's repair the existing library:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Adding a photo from iPhoto to a document in text edit

I wrote a letter in text edit and i would like to add a picture from my iphoto library. i have tried dragging the photo but when i do all i get is the photo info, name, date and size, no picture. just the discription of the picture.
can anyone help me with this?
thanks

Yep, that was the problem. since i have you. what format should i have it set at? do i keep it at .txt and convert to rich when needed?
That really depends on what your usage is.
i cannot seem to make the picture smaller. i have cropped it in iphoto but when i then put it in my letter it is back to the large size.
I'm not sure but it's quite possible that TE doesn't support resizing. Try using Word Processor like Pages.

Albums, Events & Photos in iPhoto not showing in iTune to Sync

I have been syncing photos between my macbook and all my apple devises without problems until about 2 weeks ago. Basically every photo I have imported into iPhoto or creating new albums and any organising of these photos in iPhoto is now not shown in the Photo Tab in iTunes to allow me to sync. Even albums deleted in iPhoto is still shown in iTunes. Have been reading as much discussion as I can find in different locations but cannot find one that fits my issue. Maybe I am blind but would appreciate any help from anyone out there. I sync selected photos to my iPhone and iPad, especially my iPad which I use for presentations and now I cannot do it.
Thanks in advance.

Has anyone have an answer to this. Am still in the same position where I cannot get update from my iPhoto in the iTunes to sync. HELP please.

Command-5 shortcut for 5-star rating photos in iPhoto not working

When I go to 5-star rate a photo in iPhoto using the default Command-5 shortcut, the shortcut no longer works.
The Command-1, Command-2, Command-3, Command-4 shortcuts work for (1-star through to 4-star ratings), but for some reason Command-5 no longer works???
There is nothing wrong with my "5" on my keyboard.
I went to my local Apple Store and spoke to a Genius. He said that there is probably a mistake in the iPhoto code, and that the mistake would only be corrected after someone mentioned to apple the problem.
I would like to find out if there is any way firstly to rectify the problem myself? or alternatively how to get in touch with Apple to let them know there is a problem, so that they can fix it by the next software update.
Thanks
Mac specs:
MacBook 5, 1
Mac OS X (10.6.2)
iPhoto '09 version 8.1.1 (419)

Ty trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)

Delete photos in iphoto not deleting photos from iphone

I import photos into IPhoto. Then when Iphoto asked to delete imported photos I click yes however they don't actually delete?
The next time I try to import photos they are all there.
I went into Itunes to check if my photos were synced and they are not. Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
When you remove applications from iTunes, they aren't deleted in any device apart from the PC or Mac. That's caused because iCloud doesn't sync removed apps, but it syncs installed apps if you have activated Automatic Downloads. That's the reason why your apps may appear in all your computers and devices when you download one. You can remove the applications

Removed photos but did not free up memory, why?

My memory on my iphone 4S is low, so I deleted all my photos, but it did not free up the memory. Can anyone help?

David,
Thanks for the note. I looked up online and you are correct...the aspect ratio for my camera is indeed 4:3. I see in my camera settings where I can change the size of the photos but I've played around with that stuff and seen no difference in the aspect ratio.
I guess I'm stuck with what I've got?
I tried converting some of them with iphoto to a different aspect ratio and I don't think that's possible either.
Thx.

I found my photos, but iPhoto can't

I was in the process of importing some photos from my "pictures" folder into my iPhoto - I dragged and dropped them into iPhoto - then I went into my finder to drag them into the trash - since I figured iPhoto had made a duplicate of them in it's hidden library - and I put MY ENTIRE LIBRARY in the trash (or at least I thought I did)- I realized this when all my photos inside iPhoto became black squares - the events and labels are all there - but the photo's are gone -
so I tried copying the photos from the trash into a folder and then getting them back into the library - but I have no idea where they go, and everywhere I put them, they turn into alias! So I begin searching and find them all somewhere else - apparently where they've always been, but iPhoto can't figure out how to link up with them..
Please help me - I have found my photos but I have over 1000 and want them to continue to be divided up in the events I've created as I imported them.
I have iPhoto '08
I found the photos in: HD>Library>Application Support>Apple>Automator>Workflows>Applications>iPhoto
I have NO IDEA what folder I put in the trash - nor any clue where those alias need to go - there in my iPhoto library right now in >iPhoto Selection
Please HelP!

They were not in that folder.
I have no idea how, but they were completely removed from the iPhoto Library pkg file to the location I posted earlier.
Recently - I copied all 6K photos from the weird location into the library using the method you described, however - I put them in their own folder and then just imported them. This simply made one single event with 6K photos in it- and all my events are still empty with blank photos in them.
Would placing the photos all in the "Originals" folder prompt iPhoto to put them back in their place so they're organized like I originally had them?
There's no way I'm going to reorganize 6000 photos back into new events AND get the dates right...
Thanks
