[BUG] Removed source photos: cannot "Cancel all"

It's more a missing feature than a bug, however I just reopened iPhoto after months, just to try out the new version (I'm a Lightroom user).
Long time ago I exported an album to take a look of the software and explore its features. After months those copies have been deleted: they were just a test.
I opened the event and clicked on slideshow. I didn't remember the source photos were missing.
The alert dialog show two buttons: 1) find folder... and 2) cancel.
However, it's missing a "Cancel all", or "skip/ignore/whatever" button to come back to iPhoto. I had to press the Cancel button more than 200 times! It's just plain silly, isn't it?
Is it possible to fix that in a future upgrade?
Best regards,
Paolo

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Your posts tells me that you're running a "referenced" library. That's one of the problems with that. If you don't carefully manage the source files iPhoto just won't work.
You can send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
A force quit probably would have saved you 200 cancels I think.

  • HPpsc 1215 all in one printer and cannot cancel all print jobs whatever I do.

    One of the jobs just says it is deleting but it cannot seem to get rid of the job, which is holding everything else up.  I have tried everything I can think of to clear it.  Any ideas will be gratefully received.

  • After updating to IOS 6.0.1 I cannot copy photos from the iPhoto library to the iPhone. The events appear correctly but the photo count in all the Events is 0

    Same problem here, and it's not isolated.

    I believe you will find you can again sync Photos if you delete the "iPod Photo Cache", but predict that any subsequent attempt will fail.  In my case, the enxt sync removes all the photos again - I've seen other reports of error messages upon sync.  Mine just fails silently. :-)

  • IOS5 with iTunes 10.5 Cannot sync all photos to iPhone3GS.

    Running iTunes 10.5 on Lion with latest iPhoto update. However, it seems that after this series of upgrades, I cannot sync the whole iPhoto library to my 3GS(around 7xxx photos).
    After I choose "All photos, albums, Events, and Faces" under iTunes, it shows my phone still has free space, so I believe this should not be space issue.
    I tried to removed iPod photo cache folder and rebuild iPhoto Library. No luck.
    Is there anything I miss to solve it?
    Thanks.

    Two things to try:
    If you have a Windows computer open a Command window and type:
        netsh   winsock   reset
    If this doesn't fix it, or if you have a Mac, your current backup may be corrupted. Delete it by going to iTunes Preferences, Devices tab, highlight the backup and delete it.
    And if this still doesn't fix it, you may have a badly corrupted backup. Delete it manually by going the the Backup folder and deleting everything in it. You can find it as follows:
    Mac OS: ~Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
    Windows XP %AppData%\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

  • Since the software update my photo from LinkedIn now is attached to all of my text messages and I DO NOT WANT THAT.  How do I remove my photo from my test messages?

    Anyone know how to remove your own picture that is now attached to all text messages?  Since the software update (assume KitKat) my LinkedIn photo is now attached to all my text messages and I never set that up, nor can I figure out how to remove it!

    Help!  It is driving me crazy.  Thank you.

    Thanks, but this information was not useful.  First it was outdated (2012 and the software is 2013/2104)  in the Settings/Apps/All section there was no "Text Messaging" icon.  Under "Phone/Messaging" the clear cache was not possible, it was not available, an active option.
    VERIZON/GOOGLE -  I am still hoping to learn how to remove my photo from my text messages - why is this so difficult?  Why is something like this added without my permission or at my request?   May be a reason to jump ship to iOS.

    I have lightroom 5.7. Now I have apple TV to connect my Mac to the TV scree. I wish to do a slide show on the TV. However, on the Mac, using ITunes to share photos with the TV, I cannot locate all photo files. What is the best way to save the slide show and put it where the Mac sharing can find it? So far, I made on one folder in Lightroom, put some photos there and I found them easily. Can this be done with a slide show? Please help quickly! Also worried that the photos I put on the new folder are hard to find afterwards, when the show is done. Where do they go when I delete from from the new folder?I am not alone

    Not that I'm aware of. You just export JPEG copies to a folder that you can point iTunes to. For instance, I have created a folder in my Pictures folder called Apple TV. And within that folder I have other folders of pictures that I can choose from in iTunes to share with Apple TV. But there doesn't seem to be any way to share a Lightroom slideshow. If you have laid to create a video file that would probably work. Apple TV is a little clunky in my opinion. Some things are a little more difficult to do now than they were a while back. I probably haven't provided you with much help, but just keep experimenting and I think you will figure it out.

  • I downloaded the Mac Guard malware today. Then downloaded Apple update to remove it. But it was compromised for like 3 hours. Do I need to cancel all my credit cards now? I'm so freaked out! Please help.

    I downloaded the Mac Guard malware this am. Then downloaded Apple update to remove it this afternoon. But it was compromised for like 3 hours. Do I need to cancel all my credit cards now? I'm so freaked out! Please help.

    If you supplied name, card number, expiry etc. then your details are already available for sale/abuse and you should cancel at once.

  • HT1277 I would like to remove my photo from all outgoing email on my IMac computer. Can anyone tell me a way to do this? Thank you.

    I would like to remove my photo from all outgoing emails on my IMac. Could someone help? Thanks.

    I am guessing that you are referring to the image that Mail puts next to the headers - this is what is in your Address Book, and is just there for convenience.  Your photo is not sent with any message unless you attach it via a file or otherwise include it in the message contents.

  • I cannot remove syncronized photos from my iphone 5 iOS8.1.3

    I cannot remove syncronized photos from my iphone 5 iOS8.1.3

    The only photos you can delete on the iPhone are in the Camera Roll.  If the photos you want to delete are in albums you've synced, you need to unsync them through iTunes.

  • IOS 8 problems.  cannot access all photos under ALBUMS and...

    Cannot get IPAD2 to sync just keeps going and going... also cannot access all my photos under albums... only videos and "recent photos".  I don't like to use the photos that divides the photos up and I could at least see all photo under ALBUMS, now there are only the last 10 or so. My iphone 4s has not allowed the option to update to iOS 8

    I have the exact same problem with my ipad mini, and have sync with iMac on several occasions.
    please help!

  • Cannot sync ALL my photos from mackbook air to iPhone 4

    I cannot sync all of my Photos from iPhoto to my new iPhone 4. It says I have free space though. I have tried: updating itunes, deleting the ipod photo cache and unsyncning then resyncing my photos. Any suggestions?

    You can only sync with one computer. You need to backup the contents from the old computer to a hard drive and transfer.
    Otherwise, you can use 3rd party software, but the photos are optimizd for the device and will be lower resolution than the originals.

  • I cannot sync all my photos from mac ti iPhone. The sync finishes before all photos arte copied to The iPhone so in my iPhone I have albums with less photos than Mac!

    I cannot sync all my photos from mac to iPhone. The sync finishes before all photos are copied to The iPhone so in my iPhone I have albums with less photos than Mac! I select The album that I want to sync on The iPhone on iTunes but the syncronization finishes before all the photos of the selected albums are copied on The phone.

    You should erase all contents and setting before giving your iphone away.

  • HT1918 Please help!!! I cannot update all my free installed programs on my iPhone 4S. I want to remove my credit card info from my Appe ID but there is no none !!!

    Please help!!! I cannot update all my free installed programs on my iPhone 4S. I want to remove my credit card info from my Appe ID but there is no none !!!

    Had you never backed up the phone before? When you saw the iTunes logo and cable, the device was in recovery mode. The data was already lost. The only way to recover from that is to restore the device, which will delete all of your data. You will only be able to restore to your last backup, whenever that was. Sorry this happened, but this highlights the importance of doing regular backups. The backup is the only protection you have against a problem like this.

  • Cannot upload all photos from ipad to mac ( iphoto )

    hi all. im in need of some help. i have just over 4,000 photos ( in the all photos album ) but just 1,335 in the all imported folder.
    when i connect my pad to my mac it will only seem to upload the 1,335 pics and the rest in all photos will just not import.
    has anyone had this same problem ?

    Yes
    All photos do NOT autmatically go to PS - only the ones you take on the IOS device - any other syou have to add to the PS -
    enable PS and on the Mac set to automatically import photos and on the iPad put the photos into it - it has a limit of 1000 so do it in batches and let them migrate and get imported before doing the next batch

  • How do I take photo's and video's off my iPhone without using iPhoto? It keeps crashing and to update I need to remove my photos-a catch 22??

    How do I take the photo's and video's off my iPhone?... if 'iPhoto' on my mac keeps continually crashing and now refuses to open…?
    I need to do this to update my apple software in iTunes, so that I can rid the bugs on my phone and take photo's again.
    Is there another way to take the photos/videos off my iPhone and onto the mac? and also to delete them off the phone after I have put them on my hard drive?
    It use to be as simple as find, drag and drop into a folder on my old pc. This should be much simpler, any advice or direction extremely welcome……?
    From iphotofandango

    Hi Iphotofandango,
    There is an alternative to using iPhoto for transferring photos from an iOS device. You can use Image Capture, which will allow you to transfer photos easily. Image Capture is a tool already on your Mac. The following article may help:
    Image Capture: Transfer images and other items from your device
    Transfer images, video clips, and MP3 sounds to your computer from many cameras and devices that contain a camera, such as your iPhone. Once you transfer the items, you can delete them from the device.
    Connect your device to your computer, then turn the device on.If the device is locked with a passcode, enter it.
    In Image Capture, select the device in the Devices list.
    Use the buttons at the bottom of the Image Capture window to view the thumbnails as a list or as icons to change the size of the thumbnails, or to rotate or delete images.
    From the Import To pop-up menu, choose where to save the images or which app to use to open the image.
    To import only some of the photos, select those photos, then click Import. To import all the photos, click Import All.Choose AutoImporter from the “Connecting this [device] opens” pop-up menu to transfer images from a device to your computer whenever you connect it to your computer.
    Select “Delete after Import” to remove the items from the device after transferring them to your computer. You can also select individual items on your device, then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
    For more information about connecting and using your device, refer to the documentation that came with it.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
