Album and Photo Pages Paint In/Refresh Slowly

It seems about 60 days or so ago, everything worked fine. When displaying a picture page or one linked through albums, the screen view painted in very quickly. Now it hesitates on showing the album view and really takes a long time for the picture pages. Slow as it...paint in one picture border, then another, then another, then start filling the border with a picture or two, then another and so on. This all occurs when viewed using Safari, which one would expect to be synced pretty efficiently with iWeb. Try the same using Firefox and everything works the way it used to in Safari. I know it's not my Internet connection and speed. I'm on DSL 6 and do not see the slow down anywhere else. I'm thinking it may be the way that iWeb handles the number of images I've posted...but it shouldn't if Firefox doesn't have the issues. Have a look for yourself and tell me what you see and think: http://www.shutterartphotography.com/MHS/HOME/HOME.html

I found Safari 3.0.4 quicker on the entry page and only slightly slower on the photo pages. I've got a very fast cable connection but did see a hesitation on the entry page in loading. In the photo pages Safari would load the frames slightly before adding the photos. FF2 was a bit fasters.

IWeb 09 major bug - losing site - believe it's photo albums and photo pages

I have repeatedly lost my site now 3 times since upgrading.
The problem appears to be when editing photo album pages with a few photo albums on them and then rearranging those albums and pages between sites.
I can't be more specific at this stage, as it's happening relatively randomly, but am curious if others have discovered similar problems.
FWIW I am recovering by using time machine and backups.

I too had major problems with iWeb '09. I was unable even to publish to a local folder without getting an error message "Unknown error" (really, really helpful). I published a site created and maintained by iWeb '08 four times to separate local folders within an hour, not changing the site at all during that period. Only about 90% of the contents were published. Typically what was missing was some photo albums and blogs, although not always the same photo albums.
After some careful poking about in my MobileMe-published site I noticed that some particular pages were not publishing to a local folder. Upon investigation I discovered that some of the photo albums, whilst appearing in the sidebar in iWeb '09, did not appear on the main albums page. It seems that, for whatever reason, iWeb '09 had lost the links to these. I deleted the pages from the sidebar and then turned my attention to Blogs. This was the other area where I noticed that publishing seemed to have a problem.
One of the problems seemed to be that there was a link to a, by now, 'lost' photo album. Editing the link and then re-publishing to a local folder at last cured the problem. I have yet to publish to MobileMe, but at last things are looking good in the 'test' phase.
It seems that, unless your iWeb '08-created site was relatively simple, some editing HAS to be done in iWeb '09 before publishing. I hope that this answers more questions than it poses!

Photos disappear from Album and Photo webpages in iWeb after publishing.

I just installed iWeb 9. I made some great new photos albums and blogs and published. After 4 unsuccessful attempts and publishing errors, I finally got the new web pages published. When I go back into iWeb, the photos on the album page are gone. All the photos from the photos page are also gone! The Albums page, which had 10+ albums now has 1 space that says, "Drag album here."
The website shows the photos as I would expect. I thought this was a fluke, and started from scratch, recreated the pages, made sure my iWeb patches were up to date... Same thing... No photos in iWeb.
The Blog doesn't seem to have this problem. Only the Albums and Photos webpages.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
1 - close iWeb.
2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
3 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
4 - reboot.
5 - launch iWeb and try again.

Hi,
I have a whole bunch of albums and photos on my iPad 1, which I have imported from my son's Mac. Since I am not satisfied with all the pictures an albums anymore I repeatedly tried to delete them, which I could not proceed. Is there any way to do so without using my son's Mac again?

Connect your phone back and resync except this time uncheck all the albums from itunes when you sync. This will take all the albums off your phone and clear up space on your phone.

IWeb 08 and photo pages!!!!?

when updating my old domain file to the new format, i seemed to have lost all the photos on my old photo pages and the formatting is not correct. I thought what the ****, need to refresh the site so decided to create new photo pages etc, using the new index page as well.
So completed the new pages, saved the domain, published to .mac. site look fine!!!!! Closed iWeb, then opened it again and low and behold, lost the photos and the formating gone.
Anyone know of a fix?
Regards
Mark

I had a problem with photos missing from Photo pages. I just talked to Apple support and we were able to fix the problem for my domain!
The Apple support person said that some domain files are not being properly updated to 2.0. In those cases, peoples are experiencing missing pictures and text as navigation on photo pages.
One indicator if your domain was properly updated to 2.0 is to look at the filename in User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/. In my case the file was Domain.sites and not Domain.sites2 so the initial conversion did not complete properly.
The solution was to replace incorrectly updated Domain.sites file above with the original backup that I made before installing iWeb 2.0. (NOTE - The readme clearly states to backup this file before installing and luckily I did.)
After copying the file to User/Library/Application Support/iWeb, make sure that iWeb is closed (not running). I then double clicked the Domain.sites folder and patiently wait for the Progress bar to complete. (Thank you to another poster on another thread for this suggestion.) You will not receive any success message other than the file will be renamed Domain.Sites2.
After multiple saves and publishes, it appears that everyone now works correctly. The Apple support person was very interested in user feedback and wants more people to report issues via phone. He took my original domain file (via his iDisc account) so he could submit it to engineering for them to study. It sounds like they could still use a few more examples of Domains that fail the initial upgrade to 2.0.
Hope this helps.

HT201317 Photos, albums and photo stream

I have trouble grasping the differences between all of these : Album, Photo Stream, Copies for IPod, camera Roll, and photo library. Where can I find an explanation of what does what? Many photos seem to be there more than once and some can be deleted but not others....

From various sources (doing a google search)
You are having a photo stream folder in your Album because you have enable Photo Stream in iCloud. By default, after you make a picture it will of course be save in your camera roll folder, then because photo stream is enable in iCloud which is also active on your iPhone, your pictures will be send to the iCloud server, and iCloud have the responsibility to share those pictures with all your iDevices which are sharing the same iCloud account with your iPhone, iCloud will find that your iPhone is sharing that iCloud and so will share those new pictures in the iCloud with your iPhone to including other iDevices which sharing your iCloud account. Thus you will see that those pictures already present in your camera roll are appearing in the Photo stream folder.
You will not be able to delete those pictures, it will auto delete from the iCloud after a period of time.
If you do not want to see the photo stream there anymore, then just turn off Photo stream in iCloud and it will go away.
Photo library is the collection of all photos in iPhoto and an album is what you can create to store some of the photos in a library, like a folder stores files.

HT201302 Old iphone 3g has photos on it. When I plug into my imac iphoto and image capture only bring up photos in the camera roll. There were more photos on albums and photo library on the iphone that arent showing up in iphoto and icapture.

My old iphone 3g has photos on it. When I try to get the photos off and onto my imac iphoto and image capture only bring up the camera roll. I have more pictures that arent on the camera roll there are albums and a photo library full of pictures that I want off of this dang phone. I have tried everything and I cant email them to myself because the service has been cut off of the phone. They are stuck on the phone there is there any way to get them off? Am I missing something.

The iphone is not a storage/backup device. It simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.
Again, the photo sync is one way.
Did you fail to maintain a backup copy of your old computer?
Not good. You can e-mail the photos from your iphone. You do not need to have phoe service for this. The iphone uses wi-fi. The photos will never be of the original quality, as they are reduced when synced to iphone.

Album and Photo backup

Can someone advise me how to backup my albums in iPhoto, onto CD? Could I create a Folder on my Desktop named after the album, and then highlight the photos in the album and Export to that Folder? What is the best procedure to backup photos in the Library to CD? Would a similar procedure work This has likely been covered before, but I tried the Search Forum with no results pertinent to these two questions. Thank you.

Thanks Terence and I think we are making headway thanks to your patience! I prefer the File/Export route to a Folder that I make up on my Desktop and then burn to a CD. I realize that this is the way so that it can be used by Windows but an additional question I would have:
1...Is this still a good way to backup and archive the photos, ie; Can they still be put back into iPhoto with all their parameters intact, should that be required in the event of a loss of iPhoto pictures? If so then it seems to be the best method as it can be used for both Windows AND iPhoto.
2...Getting back to my original question, I'm assuming it will work with the Albums also.
I think I have found the 'Share'--on this version of iPhoto 4.03, I'm assuming the 'Burn' icon at the bottom of the screen is what may be referred to now as 'Share'.
Thanks again for your efforts and explaining the nuts and bolts of this. Hope it may help others also. Cheers.

Iphoto albums and photos are mission

I currently have iphoto 6.0.6. When I open iphoto it is empty. All my albums and folders along with photos are not there. I know the photos are still on my hard drive but I don't know how to get everything back in iphoto.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Some possibilities:
1. Has iPhoto 'forgotten' where your library is? Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. Select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the iPhoto Library Folder. See if that will open it.
2. IS the db corrupted? Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library Folder allowing it to overwrite the damaged file. If not, then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same film rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library Folder to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library Folder on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual rolls to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library Folder on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

IPhoto update to 9.4.1 and lost all albums and photo event history

I madethe suggested updates on the 8th OCt. 2012 and then today, first opening after upgrade and much to my surprise all my photo albums and event/import history is gone. Please tell me this is recoverable.

If you're are truely opening your main library after following leonieDF's suggestion do the following: make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library ande select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Missing Albums and Photos in iPhoto!

I started up iPhoto today and none of my pictures are there! All of the folders are gone, none of the pictures are under Events or Last Import. In my hard drive the pics come up under All Images but after a few seconds the section is empty and it shows that there are 0 items instead of the 6122 items that should be there. I tried importing these pictures back into iPhoto, however after I started to select pictures to import it went back to saying I had no photos. I don't know what is going on! This has never ever happened.

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
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. .

Importing old albums and photo data from iPhoto 5 to iPhoto6

Hi-
I recently got a Macbook Pro to replace my Powerbook G4 whose hard drive died. Luckily before it totally died, I got my iPhoto Library folder backed up on an external hard drive. I have all the album data files and library files as well as all the folders of photos.
I was running iPhoto 5 on my old machine, and this one came with iPhoto 6. I'm happy to have the upgrade, but I can't figure out how to import all the albums themselves and the data associated with the photos.
All I've been able to do is import the photos folder by folder from the "Originals" folder. The problem is that now all the photos are showing the date and time of when they were copied to the external drive, not when they were taken, and they are no longer sorted into albums.
I know that there must be a way to get back my data without going through and individually changing the dates on all the photos and trying to figure out what albums they belonged in and when they were taken. In the meantime, I have over 4000 photos which are sorted in absolutely no manner and have completely nonsensical dates!
I tried copying the files from the old iPhoto Library folder (AlbumData.xml, Dir.data, Library.cache, and Library.data) into my new iPhoto Library folder, but apparently there is something else that needs to be done, since this effectively did nothing.
Any help that anyone can give would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. All you need to do is copy your V5 library folder intact into the Pictures folder on the MBP. I'd then download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field. This is just to make sure the ownership and access is correctly set before you run iPhoto 6 and update the library to the new version.
When you first launch iPhoto 6 is will tell you that it needs to update the library so select Update. That's all there is to it. Then V6 library will have all of the albums, keywords, comments, etc. that the V5 version had.

Will photos, albums and photo stream remain after sync

I have created photo albums on iOs5 with selected pictures from photos I imported from my SD card while traveling. Will the photos, photo stream and albums remain intact on my iPad when I sync them to my iMac?
