Cannot order a book

Hi there,
currently I am trying without any success to order a book within iPhoto. Everything went well until the progress bar shows the upload to Apple. The bar stops at about 70% progress and nothing happened. The MAC stops and I have to reboot the MAC.
Version is 9.5.1
Are there any issues known?
I activated the firewall for iPhoto explicitly already.

Have you tried a second time in case it was due to busy servers?
Here are two fixes that users who had problems with the upload posted:
#1
Go to the System/Sharing preference pane and make sure Remote Apple Events is checked.
If it is, uncheck it and then recheck and try ordering again.
#2
1. Quit iPhoto.
2. From the Finder menu bar, choose Go > Utilities to access your Utilities folder (or press Shift-Command-U).
3. In your Utilities folder, open Keychain Access.
4. Find the "NetServices" entry in your Keychain Access window.
5. Select the "NetServices" entry and press the delete key.
6. Reopen iPhoto and attempt to place your order again.
7. You should be prompted to enter your account information if you deleted the Keychain entry successfully.
8. After entering your account information, you should be able to complete your order.

Cannot order Iphoto Book

So every time I try and order an IPHOTO book it freezes after it "assembles"- while it's uploading the photos OR it uploads all the photos and right at the end it says "Click Retry to upload the failed asset again or Cancel Order to cancel your Order. What would you like to do?" - I've retried like 3 times.
So I was had OS X 10.5, bought snow leapord, upgraded to Mavericks, bought IPHOTO 11, then had to get the photo upgrader so I did.
The PHOTO book was created when I had the old version of IPHOTO so I spent all last night redoing the whole book (as in creating a new book and replacing the photos) and it is still not working.
I've made sure the I have the correct country & everything I just have no idea what to do at this point. There are no errors popping up in the book.
Can anyone help?

Boot into Safe Mode, Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode, and create a PDF preview file of your book according to this Apple document: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture
Be sure to proof read the PDF file for any errors, i.e. typos, photos or fonts not appearing, etc, before ordering. Once you're satisfied that there are no errors order your book while in Safe Mode. Keep the PDF file for comparison to the printed copy when you receive it.
If that fails to do the job try the following;
Quit iPhoto.
From the Finder menu bar, choose Go > Utilities to access your Utilities folder (or press Shift-Command-U).
In your Utilities folder, open Keychain Access.
Find the "NetServices" entry in your Keychain Access window.
Select the "NetServices" entry and press the delete key.
Reopen iPhoto and attempt to place your order again.
You should be prompted to enter your account information if you deleted the Keychain entry successfully.
After entering your account information, you should be able to complete your order.

I cannot order a book through i photo

I would like to order a book I made in iphoto. Every time a try to it says that I need to try again later. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Login to your Apple Account. (You can click on "Store" at the top of this page.) Click on "Check 1-Click settings". Be sure that your shipping address and Credit Card info are valid. Turn on 1-Click Ordering. Then see if you can order your book.

I can't order my book in iPhoto. It keeps giving me an error message that I'm missing a photo that I can see plain as day.

I pushed the "Buy Book" button, and it said that I cannot order the book because I have a blank photo spot. I clicked okay. It took me to where it thought the blank photo was and "pointed" to it with a thing that looked like a speech bubble. The "bubble" said to insert a photo there, but there was already a photo there. I tried removing it and reinserting it. I tried moving the page around. Nothing works. I can't submit this book, and it's done. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

generally this is caused by having a page layout for full page photo with a single full page photo in front of it -

Ordering Photo Book From iphoto

I am finished developing a photo book using iphoto. However, the book only has 13 pages, and iphoto tells me I cannot order a book without at least 20 pages. My book is two-sided, so if I one-side it, it will be more than 20 pages. I see where there are options for one-sided pages, but I cannot tell how to convert an existing project from two-sided to one-sided. It would be a hassle at this point to go outside iphoto and use an internet vendor. Do you know how to convert 2-sided book to 1-sided?

Move them in the page thumbnails so the even numbered pages are blank
And before you order preview your book - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference

Cannot order book form Canada

in iphoto11 I go to buy book and I cannot ship to Canada. The only options are US.
I have ordered many times before to canada what is the issue ?

I have ordered 2 books and should get them any day now . I noticed in iphoto prefrences that you can check your choice of printer . ie USA or Canada . Maybe that could be the reason .

Re order photo book

Can I re-order another Photo book via either iPhoto or Apple.com?
Someone I showed it to likes it and wants to order another for himself.
I looked through iPhoto and cannot find the book I created. I'm hoping it's somewhere else.

For future books I suggest you create a separate library just for the book. That way you can archive the book via its library for future ordering.
iPhoto Library Manager can be used to copy albums of photos from your working library to the book library.

Unsupported Location (Ordering Photo Book in iPhoto iOS)

Anyone know why I cannot order a photo book through the latest version of iPhoto (v2.0) for iOS on my iPad 3?. Is the service not live yet?
When I try to input my address it tells me I am in an Unsupported Location and deliveries cannot be made to this location. I do not live in a location where deliveries cannot be made, I order regularly from Amazon and get my stuff next day.
When I click 'Learn More' at the message prompt it tells me that it is not available at the moment.
I have set the Store location to my country in the options.
What am I doing wrong?, please help.
Thanks
Allyn

What Print Product Store did you select in iPhoto's options?
Is you address consistant with the Store you selected?

Cannot order iphoto print product

While I almost finished placing an order of a book created by iphoto 11 on my Mackbook Air, I remembered that I needed to change a page. Hence, at the last step of ordering, I hit the "Cancel" button to return to iPhoto for the editing. After I got done the editing, I was unable to order the book nor any print products. The message has been " An error occurred while contacting the Apple Online Store. Please try again." All my preference settings are correct and proper. I checked my two other regular Macbooks which share the same router, both have no problem at all to order print products. It appears that the Apple Online Store connection is blocked only to the one computer I used to almost finished placing the order. I have created 3 100 page iphoto books and ready for print. They cannot be exported, as I understand. Restarting my MacBook Air and the modem and changing date/time (as some suggested) did not help at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Exact same problem here...

Problem ordering photo books and calanders???

every time i try setting up an i photo account to order a book or calendar it doesn�t let me go past the 3rd step. the step after i enter my credit card info. Error comes up saying it won't let me conect and to check my network conection??? I have internet conection and tried to set up at 3 different locations...
Anyone one know the problem????
Thanks
<edited by host>

I have been trying to upload my calendar since last week - I've tried so many times that my credit card company blocked by account because Apple received so many authorizations on my account. I got my credit card unblocked - I had AT&T check my internet service - I reviewed each and every page, each and every photo, reduced all file sizes, and even tried a different layout and I cannot get the calendar to upload......I get to about 5 mb of my 24 mb calendar and it says to retry. It mentions an error with uploading a photo once in awhile, but I cannot find what it would be and I even deleted each unused photo from the calendar's library. I printed each layout to a pdf files so that I have a backup and I guess I may end up at Kinko's. I have NEVER had these problems in past years and as the Dec. 18th deadline approaches, I'm totally stressed with this project because I had planned to change birthday/anniv entries and do at least 3 more calendars!! ANY suggestions would be much appreciated!!

Trying to order a book and getting message "Unavailable Images Detected in Book" How do I fix

I am trying to order a book for a Holiday gift. It is giving me the following message:
Unavaible Images Detected in book
One or more of the images in your book are not presently available at full resolution. Please reconnect to these files by mounting the volume(s) containing the original images.
I have read a bit about doing this through Reconnecting to an offline refenced image and tried this with the majority of the images that I am having trouble with but after I hit done I get the same picture again that is casuing the issue. All of the pictures have been improted via dropbox, emails, scans, or a portable drive. None of the pictures that came directly from my camera are the issue.
How do I fix this? I do not understand the way in which Aperature files or stores my pictures. Do I need to relocate them to an Aperture file somewhere? Can I export a version into Apertures file to then put that newer picture in my book?
How can I import pictures better for the future so this doesnt happen again?
Thanks, Trina

Trina,
you are saying, only the images from Drop box, email, etc, are missing:
All of the pictures have been imported via dropbox, emails, scans, or a portable drive.
What were the settings you used when importing? i.e. the "Store Files" pop-up menu in the "Aperture Library" brick of the "Import" panel.
Did you move the image files into your Aperture library, picked a folder on your system drive, or did you pick "In their current location"? With the last setting, your images will be only available, if the drive is connected, where you imported them from, and if no other application moves them around. Do not use "In their current location", if you are importing from a drive, that you want to remove again, or when you are importing from the network, from your drop box folder, or from Mail.
Can I export a version into Apertures file to then put that newer picture in my book?
You cannot export versions, if the referenced file is missing. First you need to reconnect (again).
To fix this, locate the original files you imported (in your Dropbox, in your Mail), reconnect them again like you did before, and then let Aperture move them to a safe place on your system drive. You can either use the "File > Consolidate Original" command (this will move the files into your Aperture library) or use "File > Relocate Original" to move them to a folder on your system drive.
I do not understand the way in which Aperature files or stores my pictures.
Perhaps Kirby Krieger's excellent User Tip will help you to understand Aperture's filesystem better:

Post back, if we can give more help.

IPhoto requiring iLife 09 to order foto books

I've got a iMac G5, version Max OS (10.4.11) with the iLife version 05 on it. Now iPhoto is requiring to install iLife 09 for using the foto book print service.
However, version 10.4.11 does not support iLife 09. Any ideas who I can solve this problem? I cannot upgrade to higher version, so I have to stick with 10.4.11. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have a foto book waiting to be printed for my gode childes birthday coming up in 3 weeks!!!
Thanks in advance.

Hi Terence, thanks for the info. Since I cannot upgrade to 10.5 any idea where I can buy iPhoto 6 or 08?
It seems I cannot order from the Apple online-shop these iPhoto versions anymore.
Thanks in advance
Brigitte

Cannot upload iphoto book

I cannot upload my iphoto book. No problem last week, but I have made another one and it will not upload.

Details Please - what version of iPhoto and of the OS?
does the preview work correctly? Any error messages?
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.
if it does and it will still not upload then boot into safe mode, preview again (fonts can change) and it the preview is still good upload while in safe mode
