All my photos get check-marks

Ever since I upgraded to 5.0.4 earlier tonight, all the photos I import into iPhoto have check-marks on them. I can get rid of them by dragging them to the keyword box, but it's very annoying.
I don't want the check-marks, and can't figure out why they are appearing.
I have scrolled through preferences and menu items, and can't figure this out.
Any suggestions for ridding myself of this annoyance?

First, select all of your photos with check marks and drag to the reset keyword tab. Then close iPhoto and delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist. It will be in your User/Library/Preferences folder. Then launch iPhoto and try a new import.

  • HT1711 HOW TO I UNCHECK (ALL AT ONCE) THE CHECK MARKS NEXT TO THE SONGS

    HOW DO I - WHAT IS THE COMMAND - TO UNCHECK ALL AT ONCE THE CHECK MARKS NEXT TO THE SONG LISTS. 

    Command-click one of the tickboxes and they should all be unticked (and similarly Command-click again to re-tick them all).
    (For future info, typing all in capitals is considered shouting, and may mean that people don't reply to your posts.)

    do all my photos get backup when i plug into itunes

    Yes, but you should not rely on that, and they are not viewable.  They are only for restoring your iphone.
    You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • Can't get CHECK mark on checkbox!

    hi gurus,
    i am makin a custom jlist containing jcheckboxes as items. but i cant c the check mark on the check boxes. i can get the right value (true / false) by isSelected() but they cant show the tick marks, show only check boxes unchecked always...here is a part of my code...
    ////////// list is a JList
    list.setListData( vecCheckItems ); ///// vector of strings, the checkboxes' texts
    list.setCellRenderer( new CheckBoxRenderer() );
    ////////// custom cell renderer class
    class CheckBoxRenderer extends JCheckBox implements ListCellRenderer {
         public Component getListCellRendererComponent(
              JList list, Object value, int index, boolean isSelected, boolean cellHasFocus) {
              setText(value.toString());
              if (isSelected) {
                   setBackground(list.getSelectionBackground());
                   setForeground(list.getSelectionForeground());
              } else {
                   setBackground(BGCOLOR);
                   setForeground(FGCOLOR);
    setEnabled(true);
              return this;
    can u help me plz ?

    A renderer is not a real component, it is only painted to look like a component, therefore is does not respond to mouse clicks.

  • HT201317 can i choose which devices all my photos get pushed to?

    In iCloud, is there a way I can make the sharing go only one way? For example, from my iPhone to my Macbook, but not my Macbook to my iPhone?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In the scenario you mention, you can do what you want by turning off the automatic addition of new photos to photostream in iPhoto preferences.
    Only iPhoto on your Mac can do this, so you couldn't have this one way sync between two mobile devices for example.

  • Iphone 4 will not sync all my photos after lion update

    I just upgraded to Lion, and my iphone 4 will no longer sync all my photos.  Nearly 600 are missing.  I recieved the below error message -
    Some of your photos, including the photo "AANP.JPG", were not copied to the iPhone "My iPhone" because they cannot be displayed on your iPhone.
    All my photos were showing before I upgraded to Lion. All the files in question are a .jpg format
    Here is what I have tried/checked-
    I made sure all my photos were checked when syncing my iphone to itunes
    I restored my iphone to orginal settings (it shows that there should be 1900 photos in itunes, but my phone only downloads 1300 of them)
    I have made new albums and folders to get the files to show, but oddly enough my phone will not download them.
    I do know about the article that says I need to restore the iPhone photo cache...and maybe I am slow, but I have no idea how to find the cache to clear it.  I realize there is a tab in itunes that says photos, but how do I clear the cache from here??  The article is very confusing, and I really need more detailed directions.
    The article says  - If you need to free up space on your hard drive, or are directed to do so by another article, you can locate and remove the iPod Photo Cache folder(s).
    link to the article - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
    Which is all well and good, but where do I find this cache???
    Any help is appreciated!

    Update - I found the iphoto cache deleted it.  This did not work.... it still cannot find the photos.  I then placed all the photos on my desktop and synced my phone to the folder.  It found ALL the pictures on my desktop folder.  I would still prefer to find a fix, so I can sync my photos to iPhoto....

  • Check mark not showing after importing in Image Capture

    The check marks will show right after importing photos to a hard drive in Image Capture. However, after unplugging my iPhone and plugging it back in to import new photos, the check marks are not showing up for the photos I have already imported. One way I was successful at getting the check marks to show was to select another folder to import to and then select the folders that contain the imported images.

    CDs don't contain artwork, you can either add the artwork manually or (if the album is available in the iTunes store) you can have iTunes download it automatically from there. You'll get information on both methods at this link: <<a href="http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesMac/8.0/en/15298.html" >iTunes for Mac - Adding artwork to songs and other items

  • HT201317 icloud has deleted all my photos - how do I get them back

    I started an iCloud account last night as I wanted to be able to get videos off my phone and share them.
    This evening when I checked my photo gallery on my iphone all the photos I'd taken over the last 2 and a half years on my iphone had disappeared. Instead my photo library now seems to be populated by photos I've taken on my digital camera.
    itunes says my phone was last backed up to the iCloud this evening so I'm worried that all my photos have disappeared.
    This is extremely frustrating. iPhone and apple don't make it easy to get your content off the phone (for instance there doesn't seem to be a way to get photos off the phone without iphoto and I can't get it on my operating system).
    Is there any way to get my photos and videos back?

  • How to get back all lost photos after updating the iOS8?

    When I updated my IOS8 I thought I lost my photos, so I have restored my iPhone but after restoring I have discovered that I lost all my photos, please advise how can get/ retrieve all the lost photos specially since I didn't do backup?

    If you backed up to iCloud, you might be able to choose from more than one backup. Each backup made in iTunes on your computer usually replaces the older one, except if you use a backup to restore from. Go to iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices and check if there are more backups listed, which you can then use to restore.
    Check these articles about backups:
    Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes
    Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

  • All my photos in the iphoto have disappeared, not sure if this related to any iphoto upgrade or other issue, tried to find the photos through the finder (JPG or photo) but failed, can you help me to get back my photos please?

    All my photos in the iphoto have disappeared, not sure if this related to any iphoto upgrade or other issue, tried to find the photos through the finder (JPG or photo) but failed, can you help me to get back my photos please?

    Help us to help you: There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. More information means you get better assistance. (And no, more exclamation marks do not get help faster or make your issue seem urgent. They just make it seem like you have a stuck key )

  • I opened iPhoto and it opened as if i just bought the computer. Where are all my photos and how do I get them back?

    I opened iPhoto and it opened as if I just bought the computer. Where are all my photos and how do I get them back? Luckily for the most part, I backed up photos on my flash drive, but I had just imported dozens of pictures from my phone. I reopen iPhoto soon after and the prompt asking how I would like to start iPhoto and all came up. I selected what brought me to the iPhoto I open up to every day only without any pictures.

    Are you in the correct account that contains the iPhoto Library?
    Did you ever move your iPhoto Library to an external drive?  If so, and you disconnect this drive, iPhoto will create a new blank one in the pictures folder.
    Check your computer to see if the "iPhoto Library" was accidently moved to the trash.
    If you still can't locate your images, launch finder, and select "all images" in the source column.  This will display all images on your computer.  Be carefull not to delete, move or modify the images you see in this manner, as it will cause issues with good iPhoto Libraries, however it may help us locate where the images are.
    Once you locate an image, click it once, then in the top menu bar, select "view / show path".  This will display it's location along the bottom of the finder window.
    Once you know where the image is, this should help you launch iPhoto to the correct library.

  • Check marks all reset in iTunes 10

    I have a lot more music in my library than would fit onto my iPod, and so have spent many, many hours checking and unchecking songs in my iTunes library so that only the checked songs synchronise with my iPod.
    Yet now that I have upgraded to iTunes 10 this information has all been reset, and every song is now checked again.
    It is so frustrating to have to do all of this again when it was set up perfectly before, why can't Apple just leave our settings alone?
    Is there any way to get this information back or will I have to go through this whole process again? Or is there an easier way to choose which music gets synced to the iPod?
    Thanks

    I wonder why it unchecked things on your PC? It left mine all alone - I have Christmas music unchecked most of the year.
    try this quick test. Go into your folder named *Previous iTunes Libraries*. Find the one that has the most recent dat from when you upgraded to itunes 10. It will be named something like
    iTunes Library 2010-09-21.itl
    Which would mean you upgrade to v10 on Sept 21, 2010.
    Close itunes
    Copy & paste that ITL file to your desktop.
    Press AND HOLD the shift key while starting itunes again. Keep pressing until you see the prompt to choose a library. Choose the one you just copied to your desktop. Are the checkmarks there?
    There are some other steps to do if this works, but first make sure that old library database has the check marks.

    Hello, I am trying to use the checklist sheet but I am trying to make a formula that will add all the checkmarks in a row down and also add all the check marks across but the results in the sum function come back as 0.
    I have also tried to use the Function, Logical and information, IF but can't figure out how to do this. Does anybody know what formula I need to make up for this to work. Thanks.
