Cannot publish photos

I am unable to publish photos to my ftp site. No problem publishing to a local folder, but then when I try to upload using Fetch it stalls out when it reaches a photo page. I can publish text and movie pages with no problem. I don't have a MobileMe account. Rudd

Thanks, Old Toad. I have downloaded Cyberduck and will try it tonight and report back
Here's a bit more information: I have been talking with Apple Tech Support and Engineering about this problem for about a week. They have reported that their tests have shown no problem with iWeb and no problem connecting to my ftp site, and I agree. The baffling thing is that I can publish text and movie pages, but not photos or albums. They have suggested that it could be caused by a wrong port configuration but I have little knowledge in that area. R.

Publish Photo refuses to work

Hi all, I've done a bit of troubleshooting and still cannot resolve this issue. I was trying to load an iphone photo to my mobileme gallery today and it would not work, would not connect. It would give me the following message:
"Check your MobileMe name and password in settings."
I did so, even deleting my password and re-entering it. Got the same message. Checked my mail on the phone and that worked. So, it is connecting somehow. Read this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1672
Tried to do the locate, after enacting "push" (which I never use per battery drainage concerns) and that did not work. Could not locate my phone. Turned off the wi-fi I was on in my office, trying to get it through via 3G. So, it actually let me get to the publish page at this point, HOWEVER, at the bottom in the account section, it just perpetually reads "loading." Never actually connects. Went back to mail again...again it was able to retrieve mail. The password that lets me into my mail is working, and should be the same password across the board, so why am I suddenly having issues with publishing to mobile me? I did restart the phone. That didn't resolve the issue. I've tried all I can, still no joy. It does connect, and pull mail, when in mail on my mobile me account, so what gives with publishing. I cannot get it to connect either on 3G or wifi. Just constantly get "Unable to connect to MobileMe" when trying to upload a photo. Oh, and this has worked in the past, if that matters. I have a whole gallery of successfully published iPhone photos. Any clues? Thanks.

Allan, deleting the account worked. It was weird however. When I first reset it, tried to reestablish the account on the phone, it set it up, but showed the account "inactive." So, that was certainly an unanticipated surprise. I did some searching and found a number of people who also had .mac accounts show as "inactive" on their phone and had to go through the process of setting up a new password. I did so on .mac, deleted the account on the phone again, then re-established it with the new password and suddenly it worked. And not only did it work, but publishing photos to mobileme worked as well. That whole process doesn't seem to make any sort of sense, but after some hurdles, it's now working. Thanks!

Cannot publish: solution found

Hi all. I'm an iWeb/.mac newbie with a trial .Mac account testing whether or not to keep the .mac.
I first fired up iWeb a few weeks ago, then didn't have time to mess with it. Recently, from lack of time to do a photo gallery myself via emacs, and the need to share some pictures, I used iPhoto to put some pictures online on the .mac account.
That worked fine and page was created, that is until I started messing with iWeb trying to add more pages. I had previously published one small/test page just fine, then continuously (weeks) had problems and could not publish. Then 1.1.1 came out, and I still could not publish.
Some of the solutions I tried: editting the Domains.sites package. Deleting the iweb prefs file. Deleting the Domains.sites file. (see group archive for explanations of these methods)
Nothing worked, and I spent hours reading all your helpful messages in this forum and surfing for solutions.
Last nite I finally hit on the problem - an upstream httpd proxy server (squid, on a Firewall). I realized the first iWeb page I had published I did from a Mac at work. The rest I tried doing from home, where the proxy server is. Whenever I tried to publish from home I got the "cannot publish" error. I had mistaken that for .Mac downtime, slowdowns, phase of the moon, you know the drill.
So last nite I turned of the web-proxy here, and lo and behold I now have absolutely no problems publishing (proof: http://web.mac.com/lottadot/ )

With the firewall I'm using it's just a checkbox to enable/disable. YMMV. BTW, Astaro is free for home use. http://astaro.com/

How do I publish photos to my business page on FB

I know how to publish photos directly from iPhoto to my personal FB page - but would like to have the option of uploading them to my business page instead. But as there is only one log on for both accounts I cannot set up a separate FB account in iPhoto (I tried and it just told me I had already registered that account). Often when I choose to share something on FB I am given the choice of either sharing to my personal page or to my business page. Is this possible from iPhot? I know I can go to my business page and then use the browse feature to choose photos to upload; but it would be so much easier if I could do it directly from iPhoto...
Thanks for your help.

Thanks LarryHN - I know I can do this but it does not solve my problem! It would be so much easier if I could upload directly from iPhoto! You don't even need to export to a desktop folder - since you can use the browse feature on FB and then select the photos on your hard drive - but you don't see your photos as well in the browse function as you do in iPhoto - hence my quest to find out if this is possible. There are a number of apps that seem to exist for iPhone and iPad - but I'm a little averse to apps (and as far as I am aware they don't function directly on OSX). Thanks anyway for your input. :-)

Cannot publish pics

Hi there,
I cannot publish pics from iPhoto 11 version 9.4.2 (710.42) to Facebook. I get this notice: "The operation couldn't be completed" (NSURLErrordomain error -1.) The problem has persisted during the last few months. Does anyone know how to fix the problem?
Many thanks in advance for your help.

If you check the More Like This section to the right you'll find that it's an ongoing problem for many users. The workaround that most have resorted to is to export the photos to the Desktop and upload with a browser.

Lightroom 5.5 won't publish photos after updates

I updated lightrroom yesterday to the latest version, now I cannot publish any photos?

I think you may need to uninstall and then start over. There is no installer on the Mac for Lightroom so select it in Applications and send it to the trash. I suggest you download again from a different source. You can use the link below to download the free trial and then validate the software after installation with your product serial number. Ensure you choose your language version and MAC platform from the dropdown list at the top of the page.
After you click download it starts by downloading or updating (replace) the Adobe Download Assistant. You then browse the products and select Photoshop Lightroom 5 to start the installation.

Cannot publish to web gallery

I have a dotmac account and the newest iPhoto '08 fully updated
I cannot publish using web gallery
whenever I try to, I get this error message
"An error occurred while publishing the album "albumname." this is not a valid location for this request.
my dotmac account is programmed into my computer and working just fine in every other way. what's going on here?
help! thank you

David:
How long has this gone on? Have you been able to publish successfully previously? Apple has been having problems with their servers for the last several days. My publishing efforts from iWeb and iPhoto have been sporadic, good one moment and bad a short time later only to get good again. Be sure to post your problem to the .Mac and iPhoto feedback sites:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html
http://www.apple.com/feedback/mac/tm.html
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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I cannot email photos from within iPhoto (v. 9.5.1). When I hit send I get a message: "Your email did not go through because the server did not reply." This happens for both my iCloud account and my Shaw account. What to do???

Are you able to email from Mail with those two accounts? If so:
1 - go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete both accounts. Now add them back and try again.
2 - a better solution IMO is to set Mail as the email client for iPhoto is iPhoto's General preference pane. This gives you better access to your contacts, a sent copy of all emails and, if you want a layout similar to iPhoto's, photo layouts located in Mail's stationary.

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?

Cannot delete photos from iPod touch

I cannot delete photos from my ipod touch. There is no delete button. help

Why did Apple program it to function this way?! I synced photos from my computer to my iPod. I threw away my old computer when I bought a Macbook Pro. I want to delete my previously synced photos from my old computer. How can I unsynced the photos now? Can I ask Apple to allow synced photos to be deleted? Can I also ask Apple to allow me to add more photos on my iPod to the album of synced photos?

Cannot delete photos from iphone 5 downloaded from pc. Tried all solutions using Itunes and it doesn't delete them from iphone

Cannot delete photos from iphone 5 downloaded from pc. Tried the ITunes solution and it does not delete the photos. Try a second time and Sync doesn't even start

I see the photos tab and "My Pictures" folder shows. Sync is unselected. It asks if I want to delete the photos when I click on sync and I said yes but it didn't work. It does seem that some photos are removed based on available storage left (decreases). If I select individual folders, subfolders of "My Pictures" then hit Sync deselected Sync doesn't even start.

I cannot download photos from my digital camera to Iphoto (version '09). I have been able to successfully do this up to 4 days ago but not yesterday. My camera/device is recognized in the Source List but photos won't download for me to import to library.

I cannot download photos from my digital camera (via a cable) to Iphoto (version '09). I have been able to do this successfully up til 4 days ago but not yesterday (Dec. 25th). My camera/device is recognized in the Source List, but when it tries to download the photos, all I get are the words "Loading Photos" in the area where the thumbnail pictures usually display. The little "gear" symbol next to the words but it just goes round and round. Nothing ever downloads, and instead of showing me how many pictures there are to import it just says "No photos". So therefore I cannot import the photos to my library since they won't even download.
I was getting an error message a few days ago that my Iphoto library was getting full, so I emptied my trash in both Iphoto and on my computer. I had this same problem back in October and emptying the trash and getting rid of some photos did help (can I really be using that much storage space for the pictures?). But it didn't help this time.
Any suggestions as to what to do to solve the problem? I would try taking the SD card out and inserting that into the slot on the computer to see if I could load pictures that way; but the last time I did that, they wouldn't load. Not sure if I lost pics from the disc or not.
Thank you,

Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.

Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.
i can select the picture but when sending it, an error symbol appears.
Any ideas ?

This doesn't work for me at all. I tried entering exactly the same information that I used to set up my regular email account and I'm still getting an error message. I even tried switching to using my gmail account and neither one worked. Then it got hung up and had to repair my database! I have a lot of photos on my Mac (thank goodness they're backed up) and I was really sweating it for a moment.
Apple is so easy until it's not. I find this to be really aggrevating and I'm irritated that it hasn't been fixed. In fact I did an online search and someone described this same problem in detail and it was exactly what was happening to me. Same error messages.
I'm frustrated that Apple keeps updating it's operating system and then we go through these glitches.
And while I'm at it, I have never had such a frustrating time using my login information as I have to get into this forum! Why do they make it so difficult? There's just something about the way it's worded that get's me messed up every time. Meanwhile, at least get iPhoto fixed!

IPhoto states server did not reply so I cannot email photos from iPhoto

I cannot email photos from iPhoto. I checked the outgoing mail server and port and they are correct. When I try to email photos the message i'm getting is the server did not reply check your internet connection and try later.. but my internet connection is fine. Any suggestions? I have Yosemite 10.10.3 software installed.

Do you have two-step verification enabled and are trying to mail from your iCloud account?
Then check this solution:
If you had two-step verification enabled, you have to set up an app-specific password for iPhoto, if you want to use iPhoto as a Mail client.
See the post below:
Re: I am using iPhoto version 9.6 and I can no longer get an email sent with a photo attached. I get an error message saying the email did not go through because the server did not reply. I can send the photo with Mail. Help!in response to Gary Kissler
This solution is for those of you using 2-step verification for your Apple ID and are using iCloud as the mail server that you are trying to mail photos with.
I too had this issue. The problem in my case occurred because I had setup 2-step authentication for my Apple ID. If you have done this then you will get the error message "the mail server did not recognize your email/password...". To solve the problem go to:
https://appleid.apple.com
Click "Manage Your Apple ID"
Verify your identity with the device you selected (if this step does not show up then you have not likely set up 2-step authentication and this is not your solution)
Click Password and Security in the left column
Click Generate an app-specific password
Enter iPhoto as the name of the app
Copy the password and paste this into the password box in iPhoto where you would normally enter your apple ID (in the mail account section in iPhoto preferences).
And...voila' (I hope)
Re: I am having trouble e-mailing from iPhoto the message I get is E-mail server didn't recognise your username/password combination
