Different picture than opened on iphoto

When I click to view a picture in iphoto it is not the same picture as it was before when you see the multiple pictures, and when viewing just a picture that I didnt click on, it shows the one I clicked on the timeline which is not the same one Im viewing. After closing iphoto and restarting the comp and importing diffrent ways it keeps happening. On second picture Im posting, picture on timeline is a portait and shows as landscape and started going wrong there (even after trashing it) but also on other random spots. Any ideas on how to fix?

Also when I was putting some of the photos from SD card of canon they had the same name, IMG_511.JPG(first sc card) and again IMG_511.JPG(other sd card). and after hitting keep both it turned a new one to IMG_511 2.JPG. (with both locked and unlocked pictures) I coundnt pinpoint if that was the problem because they didnt stand out on the pictures that were not the same in the diffrent views on iphoto where the problem is.
Is there a reason why only 1 of 2 pictures never show the image when viewing in a folder?
Im going to try what you said but just want to figure it out so if it happens again.

Pictures Not Opening in iPhoto

After rearranging my photos within the iPhoto Library folder, they will no longer open. The thumbnails appear, and the photos will open in Preview. Is it possible to arrange them to my preferences if I keep them in the Originals folder in iPhoto?

Macinaction
It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss
so therefore: Is it possible to arrange them to my preferences if I keep them in the Originals folder in iPhoto?
No it's not.
iPhoto is a photo organiser. It's a database and like any database it will not work if you manipulate the data outside of the application. So everything you want to do you must do via the iPhoto Window. The good news is that anything you need to can be done from inside the iPhoto Window.
To cases: To get iPhoto working again you must return it to the way it was. If you cannot do that, then you need to create and populate a new library. To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same film rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library Folder to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library Folder on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual rolls 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 Folder 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.
Some further info: Were organising things to make it easier to find photo files? There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
Also the Film Roll view (View -> Film Rolls) corresponds exactly to the Roll folders in the Finder. Rolls can be named, created, photos can be moved between rolls - as long as this is done via the iPhoto Window and then these changes are reflected in the iPhoto Library Folder.
If you need help in achieving anything specific or clarification of anything here by all means post again.

Corrupt picture prevents opening of iPhoto...

I believe I uploaded a corrupt file (picture) into iPhoto, and now it is unable to open. When I click on the icon to open iPhoto, it will say, "Loading pictures", and before I see anything else, the application has unexpectedly quit. Is there any way to open this program so I can get rid of that corrupt file that believe is causing this? Thank you.

Start with the troubleshooting basics:
1. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
2. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
3. If the above don’t help: Download iPhoto Library Manager 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.

I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto. It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!!

I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto. It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!! I need these photos, to complete the video, not to mention I don't want to lose them. I have had trouble ever since upgrading to Maverick.

Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

I have many photos with file extension of .PDD and that Photo Deluxe 4 no longer will operate in Win 7. How can I open? Next in Elements 11, how do I load and print different pictures and different sizes options on the same page?

IPhoto emailing different pictures as the same picture?

Our iPhoto recently started emailing different pictures that we select as the same photo. Example- We individually select 5 different photos, select Share, and email them. When they come through on email, its the same picture 5 times. Its odd because the photos all have different file numbers in their title, which makes sense since its different pics we're selecting but getting the same ones in email.
Any idea whats causing this? I did just update to the latest version of iPhoto and didnt have this problem before. Perhaps a new bug in the latest version? I didnt see any other posts about this issue. I'm also using the latest version of Lion.
Thanks,
Jason

Seems to be isolated to the mail on my iPhone somehow.
Yep.
Its an issue with how iOS mail interprets the email templates used by iPhoto.
Let Apple know you are affected by this: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html
If you don't care about using iPhoto's templates: iPhoto > Preferences > General > Email photos using > and choose Mail -- This will bypass the templates and iOS devices will see the images properly.
Cheers.

HT204022 I have iPhoto, iOS, etc. all up to date.... however my iPad, iPhone, and Mac PhotoStreams all contain different pictures and aren't the same. Any ideas why? I'd rather not reset the whole thing if I don't have too.

OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

I can see the pictures in Events in iPhoto, but I can't open them. When I right click on an Event it just says Edit, but won't open all the pictures in Events. It used to open, but something is wrong. I would appreciate any assistance. Thank you.

Hi Terence,
I got your note and was able to complete the first part, but when I came to Finder, Go To Folder and I typed in both /var/db/receipts/ and /private/var/db/receipts all I get is NOT FOUND message. I tried several times, but no luck.
Please advise.
Thank you.

I opened my Iphoto and all my pictures were gone, and I can't find them anywhere, what do I do?

I opened my Iphoto and all my pictures were gone, and I can't find them anywhere, what do I do? Or how do I find them, and get them all back?

Can I open a tab with a different page than my homepage?

I wanted to find out if it's possible to open a tab with a different page than my homepage. It doesnt seem that I can do what I want because when I go to Safari Preferences/General, the only options for tab open is topsites/homepage/empty page/same page/bookmarks. I'm surprised it doesnt let you select your own choice of page - if that is different from your home page. It would seem t his would be so simple...Why cant I have a different webpage as my homepage when I open a new window and something else when I open a new tab. But apparently I cant.
Let me know if there's a way to do it.

Actually I did get it to work the way I wanted to; thanks. Its hard to explain but I had to set my homepage to what I wanted my tab to be , and then set my new window to the folder with just the one URL. So in this one example (although now I know I can customize it). I set my homepage to igoogle but then set my tab to open with my homepage (which really isnt my homepage) and a new window to open with a folder that just had "Google News" in it.
Seems confusing and a lot of steps to do something that could easily be accomplished by just letting the user type in the URL of what they wanted. Instead, I had to jump through hoops and basically set up a homepage that is not really a homepage because my new windows wont open with it as a homepage...so what makes it a homepage? If that logic makes sense. A homepage is not really a homepage then.
This is another example of where if Id ask Apple, theyd tell me it couldnt be done. Ive had the worst luck with Applecare and instore trainers. Most of the time when they tell me "I Dont know" or "This can't be done", I post something here and get the answers.

How come when I send a picture with iPhoto email it always send the same picture event when I choose a different picture until I log out from iPhoto

how come when I send a picture with iPhoto email it always send the same picture event when I choose a different picture until I log out from iPhoto

Why? Because something is wrong.
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

When I select "open a new tab" the tab opens in a different window than the one I'm using. This is release 11.0, and did not happen in 10.0
