Airport error when attempting to import photos across wireless network

Hi,
I'm using the latest version of iPhoto '09 on a MacBook that's connected to my home wireless network through an Airport Extreme. Also on the same network is a brand new Mac Mini. When I attempt to import photos into iPhoto '09 on my MacBook from the Mac Mini, I get an Airport connection error that I dismiss by clicking OK. Immediately after clicking ok, I then get a "Can't find the original photo..." error and I hit cancel. I do this three times and presto the photo imports itself. This occurs every time I attempt to do an import.
My network is not dropping. My Internet connection is not dropping. My MacBook and the Mac Mini stay connected continuously so I'm not sure why I get these errors.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Mark

It has nothing to do with the Airport connection.
This sometimes occurs if you’re importing a file into iPhoto and there’s already a file there with the same name. Digital cameras can produce many, many files with the same name over their lifetime, so it’s not uncommon to have several files called IMG_00543.JPG, for instance. Now you want to import one also called this.
What happens is that iPhoto compares the two files to check for duplicates. However, if iPhoto cannot find the file already in the database for comparison, then you get this message. It suggests that your database is damaged because iPhoto has lost track of this (or these) similarly named files.
A simple test is to rename the file you are importing - just add a character - IMG_00543a.JPG for instance. If this then imports with no issue then you might consider rebuilding your library:
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.

  • Error when attempting to import photos

    When I try to import photos from my Canon camera, the import times out for each photo and I get a popup message that the photo cannot be located. At the same time I get a message that it cannot locate an Airport disk I'm not using anymore as I have moved my shared disks to a MacMini due to the Airports inability to handle shared disks. I have never used the Airport disk directly with iPhoto but apparently there are some references somewhere. I have tried to move the plist file and have checked it for references to the Airport disk but have not found any. I have also tried to rebuild the library which worked fine but solved nothing.
    Any clues anybody?
    Importing the photos on my Wife's MacBook work seemlessly so there are no compatibility issues with the camera.

    Hi Terence,
    I tried iPhoto Library Manager but it could not solve my problem. Opening the iPhoto library I can see that the reference to the pictures are pointing to my old location not to the new one. I considered running a script that would change all pointers since this is basically what is needed (in my case from /Volumes/RAID1/Fotos/XXX to /Volumes/Fotos/XXX). Instead I inserted a soft unix link to make to connection but that did not work. It is referring to the airport disk by the airport name rather than the mounted disk name. Very strange indeed. The problem is maybe not in iPhoto but in OSX? Anyway, maybe the only way out is to take some hours and manually run through all linked photos... cumbersome and annoying!

  • Get 'Generic Error' when attempting to import .mov files with transparency?

    I get the 'Generic Error' when attempting to import .mov files with transparency? I'm trying to use mattes with an alpha channel but I cannot import them. I have had this same issue since cs6, now I have it with cc 2014? Any clues would be most appreciated.
    I have uninstalled the DVCPro Codec, but it didn't help.
    I have tried converting the .mov file (which is now automatic in Yosemite) and this creates a ProRes4444 Codec, Again no luck with import.
    I've seen this issue on the web, but never a solution? Anyone?

  • Error when attempting to IMPORT object "TS_CHECK".

    When using in BI SAP NetWeaver 2004s (700 - SP 15) the transaction ST04old -> Detail analysis menu -> Summary report
    The following short dump occurs:
    Runtime Errors         CONNE_IMPORT_WRONG_COMP_TYPE

    Date and Time          19.11.2008 15:14:08
    Short text
    Error when attempting to IMPORT object "TS_CHECK".
    What happened?
    Error in the ABAP Application Program
    The current ABAP program "SAPLSTD4" had to be terminated because it has
    come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
    Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_IMPORT_MISMATCH_ERROR', was
    not caught in
    procedure "DB02_ORA_FILL_TS_CHECK__CRITOB" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated
    by a RAISING clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    When importing the object "TS_CHECK", the component no. 4 in the
    dataset has a different type from the corresponding component
    of the target object in the program "SAPLSTD4".
    The data type is "I" in the dataset, but "N" in the program.

    Received the solution from SAP Active Global Support:
    This error occurs due a corruption in the table MONI.
    For solving this issue you need to clean the records of this table via the following path :
    1. Call transaction ST03
    2. With GOTO -> Performance database -> Content of database
    3. Push button Delete data group
    4. Enter ID DB
    5. Continue
    6. Confirm the delete
    If you wish to backup the data before deleting the entry please follow the steps in the note 1000275 "DB02: history data backup procedure".

    hi ark,
             what the error analysis says is :-
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_IMPORT_MISMATCH_ERROR', was

    Hi,
    You need to delete the set up tables and delta qeueue in the target system for the data source which you are changing... before doing the transports.
    Also clear LUW in SMQ1in t-code.
    If the transports were succesful in the QA system.
    Did you followed the correct procedure??
    Do the change and dop the transports again.
    Here is the OSS note which tells what needs to be done before doing the data source transports.
    Take a look.

  • Import Issue : "Database error: can't get path to master" when attempting to import photos (referenced method)

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a NAS (Network Attached Storage) which holds my photos. I want to import them into Apple photos (but via the reference method).
    I did this by going to Preferences/General and unchecking the 'Importing: Copy items to the Photo library' option.
    I connect to my NAS via AFP and have mount 'Media' which is where my photos are stored.
    I select the file/import option, navigate to aforementioned photo location and select the "Review for import" button
    I then receive an error which states:
    Unreadable File
    The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data).
    Filename                    Reason
    Filename.jpg              Database Error: can't get path to master
    The above error happens on multiple file types.....
    However ...
    If I tick the option in the preferences/general to 'Importing : Copy items to photo library" option then the file will import successfully.
    I of course don't want to import the files I want them to be referenced...
    Anyone else experiencing this issue????
    Thanks in advance.

    If this is a 3rd party application, I would seek out that company and ask for an updated version compatible with 2010, then it would be a matter of simply installing it per their instructions.
    Otherwise, the best course of action is to deactivate the feature from WSSv3 prior to removal. If that is no longer possible, then use
    FeatureAdmin to remove the feature from within 2010.
