Do not have mobileme account, but, iphoto starts connection process and I get repeated error messages "difficulty connecting to mobileme"...how do I fix?

I do not have a MobileMe account.  Yet, when trying to upload photos from iPhoto to FaceBook I get repeated messages, "Difficulty connecting to MobileMe."  This is after the rainbow wheel spins for a while.  Sometimes I have to force quit iPhoto because iPhoto locks up.  This also happens on occasion while I'm working in iPhoto, such as moving between albums or editing features.  I use iPhoto '11 with latest updates.  How can I resolve this issue?

Hey,
If you've resolved the issue by turning off syncing then no further troubleshooting is needed.  Having syncing turned off will prevent you from syncing an iOS device over USB with calendars / contacts.  The only time iPhoto talks to MobileMe is if you have a MobileMe account added (as far as I am aware).
If you wish to troubleshoot further:
I checked out my User>Library>Caches and >Preferences.  Neither had a >com.apple.iphoto file.
These must exist otherwise iPhoto would not be working at all as they are required for it to launch.  Lets try another route to get to the same location.
Click on the Finder icon in the dock (smiley face)
Go to "Go" > "Home" at the top of the computer screen
Double-click "Library"
Double-click "Caches"
Go to "View" > "As List" at the top of the computer screen
-- This list should now be alphabetical...if not click on the column called "Name" to alphabatize
-- Locate a blue folder called "com.apple.iphoto" and remove to the trash
Click on the Finder icon in the dock (smiley face)
Go to "Go" > "Home" at the top of the computer screen
Double-click "Library"
Double-click "Preferences"
Go to "View" > "As List" at the top of the computer screen
-- This list should now be alphabetical...if not click on the column called "Name" to alphabatize
-- Locate the files called "com.apple.iphoto" they will have a variety of endings. As long as they say "com.apple.iphoto" drag them to the trash.
- Restart the computer
If the issue persists I would try with a new iPhoto Library.  Hold down option and launch iPhoto and create a new library.  Add a picture or two and then test.

  • I am using Firefox 11 and I am unable to print web pages. I can print PDFs ok. I tried to open the prefs.js file to delete anything that starts with print and I get an error message.

    I cannot print web pages. I've tried the solutions suggested like deleting anything that starts with print in the prefs.js file but I get an error message: Script: c:\users\rick\appdata\roading\mozilla\firefox\profiles\iviwh5c1.default\prefs.js
    line: 1
    Char: 1
    Error: invalid character
    code: 800A03F6
    Source: Microsoft JScript compilation error

    When editing '''prefs.js''' you need to use a simple text editor program. WinXP Notepad messes up the line formatting of prefs.js, so I use Wordpad - but you need to save the edited file in a Text-Only format (Wordpad asks about that when you go to save the edited file). I never used Win7, so I don't know if that version of Notepad messes with the line formatting of prefs.js or not.
    Another thing - make sure '''''"Hide extensions for known file types"''''' is de-delected in Windows file / folder options > view -> advanced settings. Otherwise Windows may add a .txt file extension that you won't be able to see, and that will break that file in Firefox. '''prefs.js.txt''' won't be recognized by Firefox, when is expecting to find '''''prefs.js''''' .

  • What do I do when I try to verify a second iCloud email account for iMessage on my iPad and I get an error message, Unable to verify because the email is already in use. Thanks for any answers.

    My iMessages that I write on my iPad are not showing up on my other device, the iPhone 4.  I went into the settings and tried to add the second cloud email address, however, I keep getting an error message saying that it cannot be verified because the email is already in use. What do I need to do get it working. I have two iCloud email addresses.  Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

  • TS3899 "cannot get mail" in iphone5 suddenly. been using iphone to check 2 email accounts for months now, one is gmail and not troubled. the other is thunderbird and i get this error message now. no settings have been changed or anything! ideas?

    hey all, I have been getting the "cannot get mail" error message on my iphone5 suddenly.
    ive been using iphone to check two email accounts for months now, one is gmail and not troubled. the other is mail from thunderbird and i get this error message now saying it is not responding. no settings have been changed or anything, it just suddenly stopped receiving mail on my device as of Tuesday afternoon.
    Does anyone have iny ideas about why? i have yet to update to the new OS7 yet, could that be it?

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

    I have never been able to upgrade my phone I always get an error message after it goes 2 hours on the computer someone told me I could do it wifi but I don't know where to go to start the download

    Make sure you have the right system requirements before you start to update the iOS, you will need:
    Apple ID (required for some features)
    Internet access
    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.5.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    iTunes 10.5 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)

  • I have lost the ability to upload files to a website. I have to transfer files from my computer to a web site and I get an error message "connection was reset" and the file will not upload. I try to transfer pictures and I get the same message.

    I have to upload a scanned receipt to a website and I get the error message "connection was reset". I have uploaded these receipt for two years and last week I have had to use another browser to complete this operation. I connect to the website and do the report I must do, but I can no longer upload to this site.

    Are you using any additional software for the uploading?
    Try using Firefox in [[safe mode]] when you upload. There is no need to make changes when you see the option. Disable all plugins whilst in safe mode. Then try the uploads.
    You mention [/questions/921993 elsethread] that it is a work site. Have you contacted your IT department. One possibility is that the site is not recognising Firefox 10.
    (One temporary workaround and troubleshhooting test would be to install Firefox3.6.27 [http://portableapps.com/news/2012-02-01_-_firefox_portable_3.6.26_released portable] as an additional browser and try that.)

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • I have an Airport Extreme as my wifi hub and an Airport Express to beam music. All of a sudden the Express stopped working and I get the error message "this version of Airport Utility does not support this base station".  All my software is up to date and

    I have a WiFi system in the house that uses the Airport Extreme for a hub and an older Express for sending music from my Mac to my sound system. Everything worked great till yesterday. When I go to Networks I see the Extreme and I see the Express but the Express is no longer connected and I get an error message "this version of AirPort Utility doesn't support this base station".  Any ideas?

    This sounds as if you have an older AirPort Express that is no longer supported by the newer Mavericks operating system.
    To check and see if  that might be the case, locate the model number on the side of the AirPort Express. It will start with an "A" followed by four numbers. Hard to see in the faint print.....so you may need reading glasses or a magnifying class to see the model number clearly.
    Model numbers A1084 and A1088 of the AirPort Express are no longer supported by AirPort Utility in Mavericks.
    You will need to use a Mac running Leopard, Snow Leopard, or a PC to be able to administer the older AirPort Express.
