Bug? Cannot copy pictures to album

I am having this problem in iPhoto 09: I cannot copy pictures to a new or existing album, but only in one circumstance.
Try this:
- Click on Library, Events
- Double click any event in order to display all photos.
- Select a photo but do not double click
- Press Enter in order to view the picture for editing. Notice the ribbon above which displays thumbnails of all photos and the selected photo.
- Use the left mouse button to drag the photo to any album.
- The photo will NOT be copied to the album!
This ONLY happens when copying photos from this ribbon view, not when opening a picture by double clicking or dragging it without opening it. This WAS fine in iPhoto 08. I have tried this on two Macs with the same results.
Is this a bug? Do you have this as well?
See picture on http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/3240/picture1pb1.png for the exact view (drag from thumbnail bar to album)

I can confirm that this happens +only when in Edit mode+.
It works exactly as it should in Organisation mode.
I'm not sure it's a bug. It strikes me as intentional. After all I can't drag anything to another Album (i.e Organise) when I'm in edit mode.
I don't recall this being a feature of iPhoto 08.
iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback

  • Cannot copy pictures off of Shared library

    I sometimes open iPhoto on my computer and connect to my wife's computer running iPhoto. I used to be able to then copy photos I want to my computer across the network. But now with iPhoto 11 I cannot copy files from the shared library. I can select the remote pictures but when I drag them over my library the cursor does not change to show that the files can be copied.

    The external drive is read only - by the looks of it.
    Perhaps it is Windows formated with NTFS partition.
    If it is empty you need to reformat it for Mac using Disck Utility in your Applications / Utilities.

  • Cannot copy and paste album artwork v10.5.1

    Used to be able to select an track, copy and paste from the album art window/frame and embed it into the tracks instead of relying on iTunes to fetch from the folder on the mac each time.
    This does not seem to work anymore with this version. Right click on the window does not result in a copy/paste dialogue.

    Select view source and copy/paste from there.

  • ICal bug: cannot copy/paste into location field of exchange 2007 calendar

    when you copy text from any application (cmd C) and then try to paste it into de location field of a new or existing appointment of a calendar synchronizing with an exchange 2007 account in iCal 4.0, then .... well nothing happens. You can paste it in a subject or a notes field but not in de location field.

    My experience as well (hooked into google calendar), and a frustrating one. I assume this is related in some way to the "yellow exclamation point in edit mode - can only select entire block"? I see that normal "on my mac" calendar locations don't have the yellow exclamation point, and I can select any portion of the text. What's up with this? Is iCal suggesting that google's "Where" field is incompatible somehow? Yet there seems to be no trouble exchanging data between the two...

  • What do I do if I get "Running out of Application Memory" when no applications are open except finder and just copying pictures to Seagate?

    Your problem is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory.
    That can happen for two reasons:
    (1) You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
    (2) You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination. In Activity Monitor, select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table once or twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. Repeat with the Virtual Mem column. If one process (not including "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more memory over time without ever releasing it.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.

  • IPhone 3GS: Cannot copy photos that where copied from a PC.

    I cannot copy pictures from a folder that has pictures transferred from a computer. I've long since lost the pictures from the computer, and they are stuck on my iPhone. Is there any way I can copy them to the PC?

    Try PhotoSync or similar app.  If you're computer has a wireless connection to your network it will wirelessly transfer the pictures to your computer (outside of iTunes).  I've transferred pictures not taken on my phone to a computer before so it should work for you.  (see http://www.photosync-app.com/photosync/en/home.html)

  • Cannot copy and paste a slideshow- and what is an Album?

    I have created a slideshow in a folder called MISC. I think it is a "slideshow" because the icon looks like a 35mm slide.
    I want to copy this slide show and move it to a folder called 2007.
    No matter what I do, I cannot copy and paste it. Once a slide show is created in a folder, are you now longer able to move it?
    also, what is an album and when would i start one. What is the purpose of an Album?

    I want to copy this slide show and move it to a folder called 2007.
    Is this in the iPhoto Window? Drag and drop.
    An album is an collection of photos. You might gather them together because you want to have all your photos of your dog in one place, quite independent of when they were taken. OF you can make a Smart Album based on any of the criteria you can discover by using the File -> New Smart Album command.
    The core difference between an album and an Event is that a photo can be in 100 albums and not take up any extra disk space whereas it cannot be in more than one Event without duplicating files.

  • Cannot open pictures in Photo Album

    Hello, I have got a ipod 4th Generation and I'm having trouble because I cannot open pictures at the top of the screen because the Album heading is in front of it and I can't slide the picture down the screen.
    Can anyone help please?
    Many Thanks.

    Try closing your Photo Album app.  To do this, double click the home button to bring up the multitasking bar.  Tap your finger over the Photo Album app (or any app listed in the multitasking bar) and hold it until a small minus sign appears in the upper right hand corner.  Tap this to close the App.  Then try reopening it.  Any luck there?
    Otherwise a hard reset may be necessary.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

    Are you syncing the photos using Itunes?
    When you plug your phone into your PC, in Itunes under the picture tab you can sync photo and then choose the photos.

    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.

    I cannot copy or sync any songs/ albums to my ipod touch 64gb. Have no problem with my ipad and iphone.

    Tried both methods you have mentioned previous many times without success - to answer your questions
    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Nothing is copied
    Does iTunes see the iPod?
    Yes
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    No
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Yes - just once when I first got it
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Yes computer os has been updated, I think
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    Yes, on my computer and on my ipad and phone
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Yes, synced my iPhone first, this morning
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
    Tried every combination imaginable, including the settings that I had when syncing my iPhone this morning.
    Hope this helps - it's a real pain.

  • Cannot copy photos from camera roll to a synch folder

    I cannot copy any photo stored in Camera Roll to folder that synch's with my PC.  > "PC Synch Folder"<    I am using iphone 4s and iPad 3.   Happens to both iDevices.
    On the iDevice the "PC Synch Folder" is greyed out when trying to do a copy.   In fact, I cannot even delete that folder from either iDevices.
    For what it's worth, I can create a new folder on either iDevice and copy from Camera Roll to it.  Fine.  But that folder will not talk to the folder that I want to synch with my PC.  Strange?
    The folder "PC Synch Folder" will indeed sych any picture I put in there from the PC side.   However, what is in there, does not show up in Camera Roll.  What I have in Camera roll cannot be transferred into the "PC Synch Folder"   It's like there is a wall between the folders.
    Hence the problem is ...  pictures taken on either iDevices cannot be transferred back to my PC!   I don't want this !
    This seems most odd.  Have I done something dumb and simple?
    /tom

    I use Picasa. You don't have to use iTunes at all. Connect the phone with the USB cable and launch the app of your choice, such as Picasa. Click the "Import" button at the upper left. Your iPhone should appear in the dropdown of choices to import from. You can then import all or some of the photos in the Camera Roll. You should be able to do the same thing with Microsoft Picture Manager or any other photo management program.
    The reason that Elements is the only choice is that's the only one that iPhoto on the phone recognizes albums in.
    You cannot move photos INTO the Camera Roll from your computer; it's a one-way transfer. But you can sync photos to the Photos app on the iPhone. You either use Elements, or just create a folder on your computer for photos to sync, then create a sub-folder for each album you want on your computer. Copy the photos to each album, then go to the Photos tab in iTunes and select the top-level folder. When you sync each sub-folder will become an album on the iPhone.
    However, I consider the photo app on the iPhone rather limited and klunky. Instead I use the app MyPics from the app store. It syncs photos from my Picasa Web albums directly to the phone over the air. I can also create albums in Picasa Web from the phone, and upload images from the Camera Roll directly to Picasa Web.
    Another way to get photos (and other files) to and from the phone is Dropbox and similar cloud-based storage solutions.

  • AppleScript Bug: Duplicating stacked images to albums

    for anyone else using AppleScript, I encountered this bug a couple of nights ago. I've reported it to Apple.
    14-Feb-2009 02:14 AM Gregory Charles Rivers:
    Summary:
    The Aperture/AppleScript "Duplicate" command when used to add stacked images to albums does not work as expected.
    (1) when stacked images are successfully added to the target album, they are added as masters rather than simple album items.
    (2) if the source project is not selected in the Inspector, stacked images will not be added to the target album.
    (3) "Duplicate" is not a suitable command for adding objects to albums and confuses scriptors. an additional "Add" or "Assign" command should be created expressly for this purpose.
    Steps to Reproduce:
    * begin of steps to reproduce *
    PROBLEM #1
    1. [APERTURE] import 3 masters into a new project called "Gregory"
    2. [SCRIPT] in a script editor, get the new project's ID:
    id of every project whose name is "Gregory"
    -> "UkRHKvb/RfmZ8H+Jn/pxRA"
    3. [SCRIPT] get a list of the images in the new project:
    every image version of project id "UkRHKvb/RfmZ8H+Jn/pxRA"
    -> a list of 3 objects
    4. [APERTURE] create two albums within the project:
    -> "Album 1" and "Album 2"
    5. [APERTURE] stack the first two images.
    6. [SCRIPT] add only the first image to "Album 1"
    copy every image version of project id "UkRHKvb/RfmZ8H+Jn/pxRA" to theImages
    duplicate theImages's first item to album "Album 1" of project id "UkRHKvb/RfmZ8H+Jn/pxRA"
    -> the stack that image 1 is a member of, is added to the album, but it's not a normal 'linked' album item.
    7. [APERTURE] delete the image from "Album 1" by selecting the image and pressing "Delete" on the keyboard.
    -> a warning is sounded but nothing happens. with normal album images, they're simply removed from the album.
    -> "Remove from album" is greyed out in the Images menu.
    8. [APERTURE] select the first image of the stack within the album and press Command-Delete.
    -> a dialog is presented confirming that the images inside the album are masters.
    confirm.
    -> the image is removed from the album, and from the project!
    9. [APERTURE] select the remaining image and press Delete.
    -> the image is removed from the album without affecting the master as would normally be expected.
    (the work-around for removing 'masters' from the album is to unstack them after which they become 'normal' album items again.)
    PROBLEM #2
    10. [APERTURE] import the first master again, back into the same "Gregory" project.
    -> we now have 3 masters in the project.
    11. [APERTURE] stack the first two images.
    12. [APERTURE] within project "Gregory", select "Album 2".
    13. [SCRIPT] add all 3 images to "Album 1" (while "Album 2" is still selected within Aperture).
    copy every image version of project id "UkRHKvb/RfmZ8H+Jn/pxRA" to theImages
    repeat with i in theImages
    duplicate i to album "Album 1" of project id "UkRHKvb/RfmZ8H+Jn/pxRA"
    end repeat
    -> only the unstacked image is added to the album.
    14. [APERTURE] select the project "Gregory".
    15. [SCRIPT] run the script again.
    copy every image version of project id "UkRHKvb/RfmZ8H+Jn/pxRA" to theImages
    repeat with i in theImages
    duplicate i to album "Album 1" of subfolder "nested" of project id "UkRHKvb/RfmZ8H+Jn/pxRA"
    end repeat
    -> all of the images are added to the album.
    -> the stacked images are still 'masters' rather than simply album items.
    PROBLEM #3
    the "Duplicate" command should be used for adding images as links to objects such as albums. the use of the "Duplicate" term for this action leads to confusion. an additional "Add" or "Assign" command should be created for this specific purpose.
    * end of steps to reproduce *
    Expected Results:
    whether stacked or not, images added to albums should be simple linked items, not masters, and which when deleted by pressing Delete simply disappear from the album without affecting the true masters.
    Actual Results:
    (1) stacked images added to albums are added as masters instead of linked items.
    (2) stacked images cannot be added to albums if their containing projects are not selected in the Projects inspector.
    (3) the use of the term "Duplicate" when applied to adding items to albums is confusing because the images aren't actually duplicated.
    Regression:
    Unstack all images before running any script that adds stacked images to albums.

    I have noticed behavior with drag-and-drop working anomalously different for me than as reported by others. It has not yet been problematic, but definitely anomalous.
    It sounds like the Aperture team should forget features improvements for a while and focus on stability.

  • Cannot copy photos from HP Photosmart with Windows Vista

    I know how to copy photos onto my iPod (30G) and have done so before. I recently bought a new computer with Vista and cannot copy photos from my Pictures folder. I get a message that says, "Some of the photos...were not copied to the iPod...because they cannot be displayed on your iPod." What can I do to help fix this? I have tried resizing and using Adobe Photoshop and I get the same message.
    Thanks for the help.

    I use Picasa. You don't have to use iTunes at all. Connect the phone with the USB cable and launch the app of your choice, such as Picasa. Click the "Import" button at the upper left. Your iPhone should appear in the dropdown of choices to import from. You can then import all or some of the photos in the Camera Roll. You should be able to do the same thing with Microsoft Picture Manager or any other photo management program.
    The reason that Elements is the only choice is that's the only one that iPhoto on the phone recognizes albums in.
    You cannot move photos INTO the Camera Roll from your computer; it's a one-way transfer. But you can sync photos to the Photos app on the iPhone. You either use Elements, or just create a folder on your computer for photos to sync, then create a sub-folder for each album you want on your computer. Copy the photos to each album, then go to the Photos tab in iTunes and select the top-level folder. When you sync each sub-folder will become an album on the iPhone.
    However, I consider the photo app on the iPhone rather limited and klunky. Instead I use the app MyPics from the app store. It syncs photos from my Picasa Web albums directly to the phone over the air. I can also create albums in Picasa Web from the phone, and upload images from the Camera Roll directly to Picasa Web.
    Another way to get photos (and other files) to and from the phone is Dropbox and similar cloud-based storage solutions.
