...can't import 1.5x library, can't launch 1.5.6 :-(
Now I try to look at my old images by launching 1.5.6, but I get a message that the library is "aperture trial library" and it quits. But when I try to change the library in 2.0, as others have said, it is not possible, and it switches back to the trial library.
So 2.0 won't open my 1.5 library
and 1.5 won't launch.
End result: I can't see any of my 1.5 images in either 1.5c or 2.0.
This is really frustrating
Jeremy ~
In the Finder, just select your 1.5.x Library and drag & drop it on top of your 1.5.6 Aperture application. That should reset the path for Aperture 1.5.6 to know you want to open the 1.5.6 Library.
The app should launch and then when you quit, the app will write out into your prefs the new location of the old library.

Can't import entire iTunes library from external hard drive
I recently had to reset my IBM ThinkPad T40 (Windows XP) to factory settings. Of course, I backuped up my iTunes library on an external hard drive, and there didn't seem to be any problems doing so. (I've had to do the same thing before) But I can't re-import the entire library now! It only imports about a thousand songs (I had about 5,000), and I get an error message saying "The file iTunes Library.itl~ cannot be imported becuase it does not appear to be a valid exported file.") I also tried to import a previous back-up (stored in a different folder, and it wouldn't import all of those files, either -- no more than in the more recent backup files) either. I've tried re-downloading the iTunes software several times. Help!!!!
Thanks!!!
PS: Is there a way to sync my iPod to import songs from that BACK into itunes?
IBM ThinkPad T40 Windows XPThis seems to have deleted ALL of my iTunes. The folder (and all iTunes files) is still there on my backup, but now the newly-installed iTunes won't import ANYTHING (It at least imported about 1,000 (out of 5,000) songs before. But now it says all files are invalid, regardless of where I attempt to import them from. (although the names of some playlists import -- but they're empty files) It appears that SOME of the music files are located on the backup copy, but simply won't import. Perhaps they're corrupted?

Can't import an iPhoto library into Aperture
I'm using Aperture 1.5.2 and iPhoto 6.0.6 and cannot get Aperture to import my iPhoto library. I am following the procedure in the Aperture User Manual (p. 112) but it doesn't work. I don't get a beach-ball cursor or anything... no images, no disk activity, etc. This is regardless of the “Store Files:” or “Version Names:” or other settings in the dialog box.
I saw the Apple Support doc entitled “Aperture can't import iPhoto Library from iPhoto 6.0.1 or 6.0.2” which promises a fix in Aperture 1.1. Is this still the same problem? Or is it a different problem?
I know I can drag the photos from iPhoto into Aperture, but keywords are not preserved. Any suggestions?
PowerBook Al 15 Mac OS X (10.4.9)I recently started using Aperture 1.5.2 and imported my iPhoto Library from iPhoto 6.0.6, so it's not an impossible task. I also had a lot of trouble with it. I can say it was a pain and there were several false starts and once it froze half-way through importing them. I did File -> Import... -> iPhoto Library and I left the files in their current location... but you said this was regardless of settings. I swear the thing just sat their for a good 20 minutes after I told it to import, although I can't recall if there was a spinning cursor or not. I'd get occasional errors about being unable to connect to server at the beginning (after it sat there for 20 minutes) and middle of the process. I just kept hitting Okay and if I had all other applications closed, Aperature finally did it. So... I guess that all amounts to: "I had problems, too, but after several tries it worked so maybe just keep trying and let it sit for awhile if no one else has a more helpful suggestion." Good luck!

Can someone please provide instructions on how to import an iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Mac without getting a bunch of duplicates? I tried transferring my pictures using an external hard drive and then copying it to the Pictures folder on my new Mac. I ended up getting a bunch of duplicates. My old Mac has an older version of iPhoto while the new Mac has iPhoto '11. Is that the cause of the problem? Please advise. Thanks.
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

can't import pics to library from computer.is my 80g classic ipod compatible in all ways with windows vista home premium?
Hmm, if you're trying to drag & drop photos onto iTunes you won't get anywhere. iTunes doesn't have a slideshow area. If you'd like to put some of your photos on your iPod take a look at this support article:-

I am considering the purchase of an iMac or Macbook and want to know whether I can import my iTunes library of +400 albums from my Windows PC over my Home Network? 300 of these albums have been imported from CD's, so would not want to have to do that again.
Just copy the entire /Musci/iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
The libraries will be identical (date added, ratings, artwork, etc.).
You can do this easily over the network. -

A friend gave me a a number of playlists in a wma format. Can't import into itunes library or convert. Any suggestions?
Switch (free basic version) - http://www.nch.com.au/switch/index.html - I'm not sure if this will do WMA
All2MP3 - http://download.cnet.com/All2MP3/3000-2140_4-190407.html - mixed success with WMA
Flip4mac - need the intermediate payware version which lets you convert. Use with Quicktime player.Flip4Mac - http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.asp?prodid=flip4mac wmv - The free version will let Quicktime play but not convert Windows Media files.
After installation a new Flip4Mac pane will appear in System Preferences. Make sure you set the boxes to ensure that it will play WMV files in Quicktime. -
When I go to close IPhoto a window pops up saying "importing photos to library can't close". I can't turn off the Mac either. How do I fix this? There's no photos in IPhoto and I don't know what it's importing.
force quit (right click on the iPhoto icon in the dock and select force quit)

I have repaired permissions from iphoto and ko.
What I can do?
Thanks.Drag the photos to the iPhoto icon on the dock. Then wait for the fix that will hopefully come in 10.8.3

Can I import the Iphoto library from iOS to the Mac?
The HDD where I kept my iPhoto library is deth. The library is sync with the Ipad. Can I import the Iphoto library from iOS to the Mac? I want to keep the organization (albums, events). Is it possible?
No, and the images on your iPad are lower quality than the ones in iPhoto on your Mac. Restore from your back up is the best solution.
You can get images from your iPad with an 3rd party app like iExplorer, but there are others. Search on MacUpdate -
How can I import m itunes library to a new computer
How can I import m itunes library to a new computer
Use Migration Assstant to move all content from an old computer to a new.
For iTunes alone:
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168
Windows users see tip at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18879381
If you put it in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.) -
Can I import my iPhoto Library from iPhoto 7.1.5 to iPhoto 9.5.1?
I'm trying to migrate from my old ('08) iMac to my newer MBP, but I cannot seem to successfully import my iPhoto library. The original version is 7.1.5 and the one on my MBP is 9.5.1. I have tried various techniques, mainly variations on copying the iPhoto library to USB drive and then moving to the Pictures folder on the MBP, but iPhoto refuses to import/recognise the library. It does not appear to be corrupt. Is it because the original library is incompatible with iPhoto 9.5.1, or is there some other way I could try?
but I cannot seem to successfully import my iPhoto library.
Never import one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
What you need to do is open the Library - see Neil's link for the upgrade - and update it. -

Can't launch Safari due to error message
I can't launch Safari anymore. It says it is missing some important resources and I have to reinstall Safari. I have done so, but it still does not work.
Here is the error message;
The procedure entry point SQLite3_wal.checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll.
Can someone please help me? I have rebooted my computer, uninstalled Safari and reinstalled it without any luck.
Thank you very muchJust so you are aware, Apple no longer suports Safari for Windows.
If you don't want to use IE, try Firefox for Windows > Mozilla Firefox Web Browser
Much more user friendly than Safari. -
How do I import an iPhoto Library (V.7.1.5) created on my old MacBook (10. 6.8) into my new Macbook pro (10.9.1) running iPhoto 9.5.1? I tried copying onto memory stick and moving to new mac, but new iPhoto doesn't recognise the library.
So what exactly did you copy over? If it's a 12 gig iPhoto Library then it sounds like the files are there. Perhaps the copy went wrong along the way.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

TD
