Can't Buy my Photo Book

ready to throw macbook into my pool!!

tpotts:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Not in the pool. Send it to me, postage collect .:( There were some server issues a few days ago requiring users to log into their .Mac account (click the .Mac tab at the top of this page and then click on My Account in the next window) and reenter their account information and save. Several users reported it took several attempts before it took.
It's not the computer, it's the server. But if you're still wanting to get rid of it.....
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.

Can I print the photo book with any fonts?

I would like to print a photo book using iphoto. Is it possible to print this by using any fonts?

Don't get up your hopes, Old Toad . I never tried to buy a photo book from the iPad.
The documentation does not say much:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5037
It only mentions, that you can change the font size:
Edit text on a page
Tap Projects, and tap the photo book to open it.
Double-tap the page containing the text you want to work with.
Do the following:
Align the text: Tap the text box, and choose an alignment style from the menu that appears directly above the text box.
Choose the font size: Tap the text box, and tap the font size you want.
Make changes to the text: Double-tap the text box, and type.
No mention of the supported font. Probably the fonts will depend on the country of the Print Products Store you are using:
To change countries, tap at the top-left corner of the screen, and select another country from the list.

IPhoto and Buying a Photo Book

When I try to buy a photo book that I have created my Apple Id information (billing address and shipping address) are wrong. The country defaults to Finland and I live in Greece (Greece is not even a country in the Pick list ?!?!?!?!?!?!) Via Apple's website I have made sure that my Apple Id's address info is correct, but how can I use iPhoto to buy the book I have created and have it shipped to me?

You can't. Apple's Photo Services are not currently available in Greece, I'm afraid.
Apple sells and ships products only within Austria, Belgium, Denmark (excluding the Faroe Islands), Finland (excluding the Aland Islands), France (excluding French Guyana, Reunion, Martinique and Guadaloupe), Germany, Ireland, Italy (excluding Livigno, San Marino and Vatican City), the Netherlands, Norway, Spain (excluding the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla), Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom (excluding the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Gibraltar and any other Crown dependencies or overseas territories of the United Kingdom)

Can a completed Aperture photo book be placed on a website for viewing by friends? I already had several copies successfully printed by Apple.

Can a completed Aperture photo book be placed on a website for viewing by friends? I already have several copies successsfully printed by Apple? Thanks. Buzz22

There is no direct web publishing of a book, sorry. But as a work-around: You can print your book to pdf - select it in the book in the Inspecktor panel and use "Print book". Then select the "PDF" buttun in the print panel and save a pdf file. Upload the pdf to a server for sharing (ftp, Drop box) and send your friends a link or place a link to the file on a webpage.

Can you transfer a photo book you've started on one mac to another?

can you transfer a photo book you've started on one mac to another?

Duplicate the library in the finder. Using iPhoto you access the contents of the library. You can not duplicate it there
To copy the library between machines you connect them together (he depends on your machines and set set up. Could be via moving an external drive, via a network, via FireWire, etc.) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from one Mac to the other

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

IPhoto 7.1.5 on 10.6.8 Trying to Buy a Photo book

Hi,
I have been reading other discussion threads and I can't find exactly my question. I have iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5 on Mac OS X version 10.6.8. Everything was fine until I got the iPhone 5 and needed to update iTunes. I found I needed to update to at least Snow Leopard, so I did that and figured everything was fine now. That was until I made a photo book and tried to purchase it. Unfortunately, I got the following error message: We apologize for the inconvenience, but the ability to order books, cards, calendars and prints is no longer supported in iPhoto 7. Please upgrade to a newer version of iPhoto to order these products.
So, I have read a few posts that say I need to buy iLife, but I would never use any of the apps except iPhoto, so I would like to save myself the money of buying things I won't need. I also did a search and it looks like I can download a bunch of updates here: http://support.apple.com/downloads#iphoto
My question is, can I go update by update on this site without ruining my current iphoto events and projects? I have about 15,00 items in 243 events and I would hate for them all to get ruined.
Thank you so much for any help! I am desperate and would love my photo book.

It isn't possible to get a version of iPhoto which is new enough just through the downloadable updaters. You need to either buy an iLife DVD or upgrade the computer to Mavericks and get the Mac App Store version.

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

Can I open a photo book created in Aperture 3 in iPhoto?

HI
I have created a photo book using Aperture 3 of a recent overseas tour. I want to send it to all the tour group so that they can print or buy their own copy.
Not everyone has Aperture but all will have iPhoto...
I have saved the book as a separate Library but when I open this library in iPhoto I cannot find the book - all the photos etc are there but not the book.
Solution???
viola67

The unified library does not work for books and other products. Aperture and iPhoto cannot open each others books, because the editing options are different.
See: Using the Unified Photo Library http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5043
Print projects
Books, calendars, and cards created in iPhoto are visible in the Source list in Aperture, but you cannot edit them. Books, web pages, and web journals created in Aperture are not visible in iPhoto.
Recreate the book in iPhoto, or send your friends a PDF of the book. To create a pfd see: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture

I want to buy my photo book, but it says I have a corrupt jpeg. How do I find this jpeg photo to delete?

How do I find a photo Jpeg #? The photo book I want to buy will not allow me to buy it because there is a corrrupt photo with a jpeg # of 000_0068.JPG. How do I find this photo, I can't see jpeg #'s anywhere.

Look for a page with this formatting:
That page would require two photos to be added to it: one for the background and one above it. That layout shouldn't be offered on a 1 photo - full page.
