Can't upload photos from iphoto 08

now that I have upgraded to 08' when I click to upload a photo and go to my pictures folder, the iphoto library is grayed out where it is not a choice to click on. How do I fix this so I can upload pictures?
thanks!

Until you upgrade to Leopard your basic work flow will be to export photos to a desktop folder and upload them from there - then trash them from the desktop folder - or to download an export plugin specific to the website you are using if they have provided one

  • How can I upload photos from IPhoto to Facebook?

    How do I upload photos from IPhoto into my Facebook account?

    I am unable to upload photos to Facebook on my iPad Air and my iPhone 5s since I updated my devices to iO/S8. I hope Apple comes up with a fix pretty soon. I love iPhoto and would not like to resort to using something like Amizon Cloud Drive. Not unless I had to because iPhoto is not working with Facebook..

  • I can't upload photos from iphoto (on my iMac) to facebook. Error message comes up saying 'error occurred with iphoto - try again later'. I've installed the latest software updates but still can't get the photos to upload. Can anyone help please.

    Hi, Hope this is in the right place.
    I'm trying to upload photos into facebook from my iMac. I've clicked on the upload to facebook icon in iphoto but just get an error message saying 'error occurred with iPhoto - try again later. I've also had problems lately when I click on a photo to open it I just get a grey screen with an exclamation mark. I've downloaded the latest software but nothing seems to work.
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks hopefully,
    Karen

  • How can I upload photos from iPhoto (iOS) to iPhoto (Mac OS) without syncing the libraries?

    I want to use my iPad when I travel, download photos from my camera to the iPad, sort out the keepers from the discards, edit a few, then upload to the Mac when I get home. I don't want to keep my entire iPhoto library on my iPad. Just use it for a temporary viewing/holding area while traveling.

  • After upgrading my OS from Snowleopard to Yosemite, I can no longer upload photos from iPhoto to Facebook.

    I recently upgraded OS from Snowleopard to Yosemite and now I can't upload photos from iPhoto (v 9.6) to Facebook. Is Yosemite 10.10.1 keeping me from uploading to Facebook?

    What  happens when you try?

  • Why can't I upload photos from iPhoto to Facebook any more?

    Since I updated to 10.9 I am not able to upload photos from iphoto (v.8.1.2) to facebook.  When I try to upload the "publish" button is not highlighted so I can not click on it.  I used to be able to upload from iphoto all the time.  Is there some setting that I have to change?

    Upload directly from iPhoto. Select your photos and then select Share. iPhoto questions are best handled in the iPhoto forum of all places.

    Have you added your Facebook account in the "iPhoto Preferences > Accounts?  If yes, try to add it again.
    What happens, when you try to publish to Facebook?

  • I cannot upload photos from iPhoto 9 to Flikr. When I attempt to do so, I get the message "the login details or auth token passed were invalid." Please help.

    I cannot upload photos from iPhoto 9 to Flikr. When I try, I get the message "the login details or auth token passed were invalid."  I am using iPhoto 9 version 8.1.2, and my OS is 10.9.5. My computer is a MacBook Pro. I do not have this trouble with my iMac.  This trouble started before I updated to OS10.9.5.  I do not have this problem when uploading to FaceBook or sending by e-mail.
    This problem started when I tried to upload some photos after hitting the "use other account" tab. This took me to a Flikr site asking me for permission to make my iPhoto information available to others.  I clicked "yes," and then I changed my mind and clicked "no." I haven't been able to upload to Flikr since.
    I searched Flikr and Yahoo for a solution, and Yahoo says the trouble is in iPhoto.  I checked my Flikr account, and iPhoto extensions are enabled.
    I need to upload some school and alumni photos, so I sure could use some help. I am Not computer proficient.  Thank you.

    1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
    Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
    How much free space on it now?

    The window doesn't automatically pop up now. When you plug the card reader in, you should see a 4th option on the lower bar of the photos app. I think it says camera. Tap on that then you can see and inport your photos.
    If you are still having issues, try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. It won't hurt any data but can clear gliches.

  • I recently updated my iphone software and now I can't upload photos from iphone to mac computer. Help please.

    I recently updated my iphone software and now I can't upload photos from iphone to mac computer. Help please.

    The following link has 2 methods for importing photos to a Mac (not counting Photo Stream). Are you using iPhoto or Image Capture? If you follow the steps in the link for that method, what exactly happens that doesn't allow the upload? iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

  • Can you move photos from iphoto to a cd-r disc

    Can you move photos from iphoto onto a blank CD-R disc? If so, how?

    Take the photos you want to burn from iPhoto and put them in a folder on your desktop. Then, insert a blank CD and drag the photos onto the CD icon. Wait for them to finish uploading onto the disk and eject it. Insert it again just to see if this works; double click on the CD icon and ypu should see the same folder, with all of your photos in it. Hope this helps.

  • Is it possible to upload photos from iPhoto '11 to multiple face book accounts?

    I am a novice to the whole Mac experience and iPhoto so please bear with me.  Hopefully I can ask my question so that it makes sense.
    I can automatically upload pictures from iPhoto to my face book account, but can not set it up so that other family members can add photos to their face book accounts.  I read the "help" section about this topic, but I am missing something... I can go to Share and select the face book option, but the "set up" option isn't available.
    I appreciate any advice that you may have.

    Greetings Melissa,
    I only have 1 Facebook account so I can't test this but I have a suggestion:
    Try adding more than one account by going to iPhoto > Preferernces > Accounts and using the plus sign to add 1 account and then another.
    If you can add multiple accounts here you may then be able to drag the images you want from your library to the various Facebook accounts on the left hand side of iPhoto even if the Share button only understands 1 account.
    Let us know if iPhoto will allow you to add more than one in this manner.
    Cheers.

  • Uploading photos from iPhoto to Photo Stream

    Hi, I'm trying to upload photos from iPhoto '11 (9.4.2) on my iMac onto Photo Stream. It's a set of 43 imported directly into iPhoto from a USB stick, so not taken on any iOS device connected to the same iCloud account.
    Photo Stream is enabled in iPhoto and is working fine with the preferences I've selected - I'm not using automatic upload for all new photos.
    I've selected and dragged the photos from their Event in iPhoto onto Photo Stream in the sidebar under RECENT. This behaves as I would expect and when I select Photo Stream and look at the contents it says Uploading 43 photos to the right of the title at the top of the Photo Stream window. However it said that 15hrs ago and they're still not there!
    The only thing I can think of is whether the date the photos were taken (19-Feb-13) is relevant - they were updloaded on the 12-Apr-13.
    Any help would be appreciated, I couldn't find anything out there that alreadyprovided a solution.

    If you have your iPhoto/Photo Stream setup as shown in this screenshot
    you can delete the photos from the Photo Stream and they will be safe in your iPhoto LIbrary.
    But I would check each monthly Photo Stream Event in the library to confirm that they are safely in the Event before deleting from the Photo Stream.

  • Suddenly cannot upload photos from iPhoto to websites like ebay

    I am attempting to create listings on Ebay and cannot upload photos from Iphoto like I used to.  This happened on another website as well where I attempted to upload photos from Iphoto onto the site and it wouldn't work.  I was able to upload to Facebook and use the pictures that way, but cannot do that for Ebay.
    With the Ebay issue, I'm able to get to Iphoto by clicking on the browse button in Ebay, but when Iphoto comes up, it's frozen and I can't move the page at all. I'm have to "force quit" Safari to even be able to continue using the computer.
    I am using a Mac Mini, Mac OS X Lion (Version 10.7.5).  Safari is Version 6.1 (7537.71).  All software is up to date.
    Thanks in advance!!

  • I can't move photos from iPhoto to my secondary hard drive or to a burn folder.  I have never had a problem with this before.  This is something new.   They will not drop into either folder.  Nothing happens.

    I can't move photos from iPhoto to my secondary hard drive or to a burn folder.  I have never had a problem with this before.  This is something new.   They will not drop into either folder.  Nothing happens. 
    I checked my secondary harddrive and there is plenty of memory.
    I emptied my burn folder but the photos still will not drop into it.
    I created a new burn folder, no luck with this either.
    230 photos is the maximum size of the events I am trying to move from iPhoto to save elsewhere.
    I have shut down and restarted my computer.   No change. The photos still will not drop out of iPhoto.
    My Mac Computer Storage shows that I have 62.2GB free out of 249.2GB (movies, photos and contacts taking up the most space)
    My Lacie External Harddrive (2TB capacity) shows that I have 1.79TB available.  It shows that 207,729,520,640 bytes (207.73 GB on disk) are used.
    I have never had this problem before.  It is usually very easy to move my photos from iPhoto.
    I am not a computer expert (I work in surgery so don't have a need for lots of computer knowledge) so please explain in simple terms.  
    Thank you so much for any help you can provide.
    I really appreciate it.

    YES Terence!  Thank you. Exporting allowed me to move my photos from iPhoto into the Burn Folder on my desktop.   But that doesn't explain why I'm having to go that route now.   Have I done something (accidentally changed some setting) on my computer that will not allow me to just click and drag anymore?   I really liked the convenience of the click and drag option. 
    I don't have the time tonight to export and burn a lot of CD/DVDs.  I'll try that tomorrow and make sure my photos are moving properly.  I also need to export photos to my external hard drive to make sure that route is working. 
    Wouldn't you know that my Apple Care Plan runs out this Wednesday?!  I need to make sure everything is working properly before that expires. 
    Thank you so much for your help.   I really, really appreciate it.
