Can I transfer a book, made in iphoto, to a different computer so that I can order it?

I created a book in iPhoto 08 and when I click the "buy" button a "connecting" pop-up appears but nothing ever happens after that. It just remains semi-frozen. I've left it open for hours with no change. My internet connection appears to be strong and my one click purchasing is enabled. Can I export my book to another computer with a more current version of iPhoto...and would that be a solution?
Please help.

Probably not
What version of iPhoto do you have? What version does the other computer have?
The only way to "move" a book is to move the iPhoto library intact - When you move to a newer version the library must be upgraded and this may invalidate or change the book - you may want to make a special "archive" library for jus tthe book to make this easier - see Old Toad's Tutorial #9 for more information.
Have you previewed the book?
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
have your backedup and repaired or rebuilt your library?

I made a photo book in iPhoto and would like to transfer the book to my iPhoto on other macs and iPad. How is this done and can it be synced between devices like photo stream.

You can create a Quicktime movie slideshow of the book's pages and share that. Here's how to get your book into an iPhoto slideshow and then export as a Quicktime video:
1 - While viewing the book type Command+P to start the print process.
2 - click on the PDF button and select "Save PDF to iPhoto".
Note: If you don't have any of those options go to Toad's Cellar and download these two files:
Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
Unzip the files and place in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder and reboot.
3 - select either of the files above (300 dip is used for photos to be included in a book that will be ordered).
4 - in the window that comes up enter an album name or select an existing album and hit the Continue button.
That will create a 200 or 300 dpi jpeg file of the item being printed and import it into iPhoto. Immediately select all of the photos in the new album and sequentially renumber them as "Page " using the Batch Change ➙ Title to Text with the option to add a sequential number to each title. This is to let you put the pages back in the correct order in the event they get sorted incorrectly.
Now you can proceed as follows: create the slideshow in iPhoto and export it out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large (480p with iPhoto 9),
Happy New Year

im trying to order the photo book I made on iphoto, but it keeps telling me that my credit card cannot be verified. Any suggestions?

Be sure your credit card is ok?

Need to transfer all my photos from iPhoto app in my computer to another one, which files do I need to copy?

Need to transfer all my photos from iPhoto app in my computer to another one, which files do I need to copy?

You need to find your iPhoto Library and copy this package to your other computer.
By default the library will be called iPhoto Libary.photolibrary and located in your Pictures folder. YOu will recognize it by the typical "fan of pictures" icon. The color of the icon wil depend on the iPhoto version. What is your version of iPhoto?

I plugged my phone into my a different computer (mac) that was not mine and it asked me to restore the phone. I started to back up the phone, then ended the phone got unplugged in the middle of the backup. Now we can't find where the iPhone backed up.

If it there is a backup you will find in in ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup. (Just open Finder>Go>Go To Folder..., past this in the path box and click Go.)

Can I convert a book made in iPhoto to a quicktime movie for the web?

Hi,
Please help, I have a great book that I have made in iPhoto and had printed but would like to post it to my mac website for people to be able to view with all the photos, titles, and audio. Is this possible?
Thanks.

James:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There are two ways you can do that.
While in the book mode, do a Print to PDF in the Print window but select the Send PDF to iPhoto option. This will start an Automator process that converts each page to a jpg file and imports it into a user determined album in iPhoto. NOTE: when the process is complete and it's time for you to name or select an album a window will be presented. BUT if often stays behind the other windows and you'll think the process has failed. So make sure you can hide the other windows if it doesn't present itself to you. It took me several tries before I realized what was happening.
Once the pages are in iPHoto as separate files, you can try:
1 - put them in an album and add to an iWeb photo page where they can be viewed individually or as a slideshow.
2 - create a slideshow in iPHoto, export to Quicktime and post that QT movie file to an iWeb page.
3 - create an iDVD project, add a slideshow and import the stills into iDVD to create a slideshow with music. A great gift to go along with a book. This method is explained in Tutorial #6.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Will the photo book made in iPhoto 06 convert okay in iPhoto 09?

I could not order a photobook made in iPhoto 06 in my country (which is now available with 09). So if I upgrade to iPhoto 09, will my photobook be intact when I have upgraded to 09?
Ths

Sort of
iPhoto '09 has some new themes and some old ones go away so that can be an issue or not depending the theme you used, the layouts you used and some luck
See Liz Castro's web page for examples of the iPhoto '09 themes and layouts - http://www.lizcastro.com/iphotobookthemes/pmwiki.php?n=Main.FamilyAlbum
And there are many more options and layouts in iPhoto '09

HT201882 reprint of book made with iPhoto?

Many years ago I made a book for my wife in iPhoto. Is there any way to order a reprint of the same book? I no longer have the book/project in my iphoto library.

For future books you might consider doing what I do: create a separate library for each book and copy the photos for the book from your working library to the book library with iPhoto Library Manager.
When the book is completed and ordered burn the library package to a CD, DVD or external HD to archive it so it's available for editing and reordering at a later date if needed.

I have my iphoto with a different apple id that I no longer use and can't update or open iphoto what should I do?

Use the old Apple ID - log into th eApp store using it
Other wise contact App store support - link is on the right of the App store window

How can i transfer a movie into my ipad from a different computer?

I had the original ipad. I download a digital copy of a movie into my personal laptop however all movies are downloaded originally from my wife's Macintosh. When I plug in the ipad into my Sony laptop, it states 'all movies will be lost" if I place the movie from a different computer. How can I transfer the movie into my ipad?

Put the movie onto whatever computer you use to sync. Move the movie into i tunes, and sync.

Buy a photo book made with iPhoto 08?

I've made a photo book on an iMac running 10.8.5 with iPhoto 08 (7.1.5). When I pressed "buy", it said it was not possible with this version. I can't upgrade the machine or software (it's not my machine). Is there a work-around? Is there a way of exporting the finished project so that I can import it and buy it on a more up-to-date machine? Thanks.

You can purchase your book from other sources - google is your friend - one source to look at is PrestoPrint
You can upgrade to iPhoto '11 by purchasing an iLife '11 DVD from Amazon or eBay and installing iPhoto '11 and upgrading to the latest version or system supports
You can make a copy of your entire iPhoto library (there is no way to export a book except as a DF which can not be used to order from Apple and can not be edited) and open it on a Mac with iphoto '-9 or '11 and order -
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it. - check the preview carefully as i is possible that some things change when you change versions

My computer crashed and lost all of my music and all my cd's were stolen how do I transfer the music on my IPod back to my computer so that I can update my IPod?

My computer crashed with all my music on it. All of my cd's that I had uploaded onto my computer were stolen. The only way that I have all my music is on my IPod. However, I am afraid to update it because I don't want to loose all the music that I no longer have that is on it. How can I transfer from my IPod my music library onto my new computer without losing any of my music? I mean it has not been updated in over a year because I have some really good music that I don't want to loose. Please help me. I would like to add some really great music but can't for fear of crashing the music I have. Thank you in advance.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Have you failed to do this?
If so, then you can buy programs that will retrieve the music from the ipod (not supported by Apple).

Is it possible to print a book created in iPhoto in a different country?

I would like to send my brother a gift of a photo book following his recent visit to Australia. I would prefer if the book is delivered directly to him rather than it being delivered to me and then having to resend it. I live in Australia and he lives in South Africa.

Ok. Thanks Terence
I accept that it won't work in my case, but is it possible if Apple does offer print services in the other country?

Can I transfer a book, made in iphoto, to a different computer so that I can order it?
