Crashes accessing photos

Apple tv crashes when I try to access my entire photo library from my shared music folder. It works on 'events', 'faces' and individual albums like 'last 12 months', but not on 'photos'.
Apple TV running 6.1 and iMac running mavericks.

Update
Apple support have been working with me today and the problem is still not resolved. Here's what I've been up to...
Apple suggested I carry out the following:
Press Alt when starting iPhoto and create a new library.
Chuck some pix in the new library and share with AppleTV
RESULT: All worked fine and it would coz I only had 25 pix to view!
Delete old Library and go back to original one.
Next
Press Alt+Ctrl when starting iPhoto and start a repair process one at a time in the following order...
Repair Permissions
Repair Thumbnails
Repair Database
This took a couple of hours and I still could not load my entire library.
I then decided to re introduce my pix into Home Sharing 5000 at a time...
5000 took 2 mins to load and worked fine.
10000 took 3 mins to load and worked fine
15000 took 4 mins to load and worked fine
19000 took 2 mins to crash!!!
I realise there is a lot of Pix in my library but I have never experienced theses issues before last week. It is without doubt a reduction in service caused by an Apple update.
Getting back in touch with Apple Support....

Ipad 4 ePrint crashes when trying to access Photos

HP ePrint v5.2.1 installed on iPad4 with iOS 6.1.3 crashes when trying to access Photos for ePrinting. Instead of opening up Photos to allow selection of photo to print, it returns to the home screen. Access to Photos was granted and confirmed in the Privacy Settings. This appears to be a bug. Printing emails works both on local network HP laserjet and remote ePrint Laserjet printers.
I got around this bug by emailing the photo, then accessing the email within the HP ePrint Ap and printing the attachment. Awkward but it works. It would be nice to have the bug fixed so that HP ePrint can access Photos directly as intended.

If accessing photos is causing the ePrint app to crash, go into your iCloud settings and turn off your shared photo streams. Let me know if you have any questions about that, if this works, or if that doesn't help. I have a good feeling this will fix it for you. Keep me posted!
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

Trouble accessing photos.

Hello! Need help! Having trouble accessing photos from Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0, I had a free trial but never registered the program because I was not using it. The other day I was taking pics off a Canon camera, & they automatically loaded into that site. I selected cancel several times, but the program did not respond. Once they completely loaded in, the program asked if I wanted to erase photos from the camera, I selected no but it started erasing them, I was able to stop it but 44 were erased off the camera. I can see the photos in the program but can not access them since I never registered. I tried to register now but received email saying that program has expired. So how do I get my photos? Please help! The photos are not mine, I was loading them from a friends camera, & they are important vacation memories to her! Thanks! Ruth

When you click on one of the thumbnails do you see a blank window where the full sized image? Or do you see this in the window:
In either case make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

How do I access photos that were backed up onto an external hard drive using Time Machine?

I used to own a PC. When my computer got too full, I would back up some of my photo albums onto an external hard drive (simply by copying and pasting what I wanted to save on the hard drive) and then delete them on my computer to free up space. Occassionally, I would still plug in my hard drive to access and use those photos when needed. I now own a Macbook Pro and after having issues with my old hard drive, I bought a hard drive compatiable with Macs. I plugged in the hard drive and backed up my entire computer using Time Machine. Now I would like to delete some of my photo albums to free up space on my computer. Before I do that, I would like to double check that they are indeed on the hard drive, but every time I try to open my iPhoto Library from the hard drive I get this error message: "The iPhoto library is a Time Machine backup, and so cannot be used as the main library. Reopen iPhoto with the Option key held down to choose another library." So I tried doing that, but the only option that comes up is my main iPhoto library on my computer. I can't seem to access what is on my hard drive.
I don't plan on deleting ALL of my photo albums, just a few. So I also want to make sure that the next time I plug in my hard drive to back stuff up, it won't copy just what is on my computer and override the last backup, because that would mean losing missing albums I had already deleted. I just want to be able to access photos on my hard drive when I want and occassionally manually add a few more albums to it. I don't intend to keep backing up my entire computer. My main concern are my photos.
Can anyone help?

I am after some advice on how to access photos on an iPad that were synced from a now failed laptop? The question stems from a need to return my current iPad having just taken delivery of a new unit. Thanks

If you have a dropbox account, there's a free app (probably more) that syncs photos to your dropbox account - picbox.
There's also PhotoSync that syncs photos to/from a number of different services and devices.

My iPod says "cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found. Always when half way through a sync. It also shows apple logo when I try to access photos and I think the issues are linked. Any ideas?

My iPod says "cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found" it also defaults to apple logo when I try to access photos. I think the issues are linked. Any ides?

So you have tried removing/trashing your iPod's photo cache? See here for more information on where to find this file.

Can't access photos via windows, everything else works iTunes, external software etc.

Hello,
Since I installed Windows 8.1 I have quite big problem, can't access photos via windows explorer. iTunes and other software can see phone and works completely fine.
There is error 28 in device manager.
Tried uninstalling all services including iTunes itself and got latest iTunes today and still no luck.
Anybody knows solution to this ?
(iPhone 4S iOS 7.0.4)

Is it just me, who got this issue ?

I have suddenly become unable to access photo library iPhoto (vers 9.5) on my external drive. And time Machine will no longer back up to the same external (LaCie) drive. Appreciate all suggestions. The drive does show up on my desktop....

I have suddenly become unable to access photo library (iPhoto vers 9.5) on my external hard drive. Also time machine isnt backing up to same external hard drive (LaCie). The drive does show up on the desk top, but when i open iPhoto the library isnt listed, so I cant option click.

First, one should not try to run an iPhoto library from the same volume/drive that is being used by Time Machine for backups. TM will continue to fill up the drive thus squeezing out iPhoto from being able to be opened and used. Also that doesn't allow you to let TM backup your library as it does with other files on your boot drive.
If you partition the EHD into two separate partitions you can run the library from it but that won't let TM backup the library which is important.
Are you able to see the library on the EHD via the Finder? If so copy it back to your boot drive and open it there. You may have to do some fixing on it.
Solution is to either run the library from the boot drive or get a second EHD to run the library from and let TM back it up along with your boot drive.

Cannot access photo gallery

Have had phone for six months, no problem accessing photo gallery. Now, when I click on the gallery widget, the gallery will not come up. I have turned phone off and on, still will not work. Thoughts?
Also, how do I know if the Gingerbread update is on our phones? My wife and I have been experiencing some random issues the past few days---issues we didn't have previously.
Thanks.

re: Photo Gallery -- if launching of the Gallery just closes, it is most likely due to a corrupted file in the Gallery. You can do a Search in this forum for other suggestions and methods to fix it ... but when I had this problem, I just plugged into my computers USB port and MOVED my images from the phone to my computer, then 1 by 1 viewed them - looking for the culprit. Thn copied the remaining ones back - or just the ones I really wanted.
Also, you can download the free app called 3D Gallery - it seems to be able to deal with corrupted images better than the stock gallery.
Good luck.

Cannot access photos in photo stream folder

PS Touch on my iPad iOS 8.2 cannot access photos in the photo stream folder. They appear as blank boxes. Why? The photo stream folder contains photos that are shared across devices. The photo stream folder appears in the app but when opened blank boxes appear where the photos should be. After doing a search, I see this has been an ongoing problem for other users & uninstalling/reinstalling does not fix the issue. The workaround is to copy the photos into Camera Roll then import them from there. Does Adobe plan to address this issue in a future update?

Unable to access photos in iPhoto 08

Trying to access photos in iPhoto 08, and on some (almost always scanned not from digital camera) I get the circle and an exclamation point. On other problems photos I get a message; "insesrt disk or connect to server volume and wait for it to appear on deskktop and then try again." When i try to find in Finder it appears they are located in data section of Photo Library and therefore unaccessible. Possible clue is that it seems to happen with tiff files. Completely confused and grateful for any help!

No mystery. Your Library is corrupted.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Access photo stream on new mac

I have all my photos on my iMac and I can pick up my phot streamed pics just fine on my iPad and iPhone. But now I have a new Macbook Air, and I simply cannot figure out how to access any of my photos. I have set up all my folders on my Mac for sharing (right click folders, select Get Info, and selecting appropriate Sharing permissions), but I still cannot seem to access photos or even just my photo streamed photos. Any ideas, anybody?
