Error occurred while uploading iPhoto book

I have been trying to upload (buy) a photobook through iPhoto. It builds OK and seems to transfer all the data (60MB) then stops and displays an error message:
"An error occurred while uploading one of your files. Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your file"
Network is fine and I have tried the following suggestions:
Rebuild iPhoto
Throttle restricted upload (this seemed counter intuitive but the data tx seemed correct)
Would appreciate any workable ideas.

If it helps I will also leave you with a few steps I have when it comes to errors in the account >stopping the purchases. If the steps Old Toad said did not help, I am hoping this is what it takes:
A) Please delete your net services folder. To do so, please follow the path below:
MacintoshHD ->Library -> Application Support -> NetServices
Single-click on the NetServices folder and delete the entire folder.
B) Make corrections in Apple Store
1. Go to the Apple Store online and click Your Account in the navigation bar:
http://store.apple.com/us
2. Sign in using your Apple ID and password.
3. Click "Change account information" on the right and sign in again.
4. Verify or enter your Billing and Shipping address information.
5. Delete your credit card information in the Method of Payment section, and then re-enter it. Do >not enter spaces in your credit card number. Click Continue.
C) Next go back to iPhoto:
1) Select the "Buy Book" button.
2) Click on "Account Info" and then "Edit Billing information".
3) Change the type of card, and then blank out the remaining fields: card number, security code, >and expiration date.
4) Click "Save".
5) You should then receive an error that you will need to fill in those fields.
6) Complete all the fields again and click "Save".
Subsequently, please attempt to submit your order.
Thank you for your patience in this matter. I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,

Thanks OT. I've done this with no improvement, David H from Apple suggested a similar solution. 
I've since copied the iPhoto library to the MacBook Pro and tried to upload from there. I'm now getting a billing error so think I must have made an error when I re-typed. Trying again....

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
    The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
    My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry.

  • IPhoto cards: "An error occurred while uploading one of your files."

    Hey, all.
    I've been trying to print some cards via iPhoto (version 6.0.6) but, while some are successful on the first attempt, others just keep generating the following error message no matter how many times I try them: "An error occurred while uploading one of your files."
    I'm at a loss. They assemble fine. They connect fine. They transfer fine. Then I just get this irritating message over and over and over...plus my credit card company keeps calling about "unusual activity" (which would be the multiple "pending" charges for the same dollar amount that each of these tries generate).
    I've tried searching these forums and, while others seem to have had this problem, I've yet to read an actual solution.
    And I've tried contacting Apple but they've been, in a word, useless. Polite, but useless.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    like, say, panning the image
    What do you mean by "panning"? The only time I've heard this term is with video, referring to moving the camera from right to left. So, if you can explain how what you mean by this it might help.
    While there are reports on this forum about folks having issues uploading, compared to the sheer volume of photo orders Apple process it's quite a small amount, and certainly not enough to suggest a systemic fault.
    And I'd already tried removing the pictures and cards from iPhoto, then halving the pictures' size (MB) in Photoshop, then recreating the whole lot from scratch. Still, no effect.
    Can you explain how you did this? What interaction have you set between iPhoto and Photoshop?
    Other than that: Start with the troubleshooting basics:
    1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
    3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
    4. What color profile are these images? Have they been processed in Adobe Lightroom or other software before iPhoto? What's the source of the images - Camera? Scanner? Other?

  • An error occurred while uploading one of your files. Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your file

    Just for the record:
    I had received the error message "An error occurred while uploading one of your files. Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your file" after all data apparently had been uploaded.
    After trying everything recommended on the internet, I finally found the culprit: Glimmerblocker, an ad blocker!
    (GlimmerBlocker version 1.4.16, Mac OS X 10.7.2 Lion)
    Actually, the credit goes to the very patient German Apple support: they had finally asked me: "what software have you installed lately" ... a big applause to the guys there!
    Best,
    Gabriel.

         In our case, it was not third party software, but a problem with our router not accepting pings.  If you are using a router be sure to set-up Enable WAN Ping Respond,  in the advanced settings.  I reviewed my wireless router's logs and found that it was blocking ICMP Type 3 packets from Apple's server.  As a result, it would give the message, "An error occurred while uploading one of your files.  Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your file."  You can find the blocked packets in your log based on the time you clicked the buy button for your iPhoto purchase (in my case about a dozen times).  If your packets are blocked, then that is your problem.
         I should have suspected it was the connection since the message plainly said, "...check your network connection...".  However, I discounted this along with so many others based on the forums, since I could connect to the internet.  If there only was a way the message could have gave a little more saying, "Enable your WAN Ping Respond now, or else!"
    Good fortune on your road to Macenlightenment!

    What happened?

    What can you do?
        Print out the error message (using the "Print" function)

  • TS1135 Cannot process the Photo Book; it fails always at the very last stage with "error occurred while uploading on of your files. Pls check your network connection and click Retry..." Tried at 12 times and no joy!  Can anyone help?

    Can anyone help with the Photo Book process?  I have tried at least a dozen times and the Photo Book always fails at the very last stage of the process.  I ordered Buy Book, it assembles the book and files are transferred until the very last moment... it says " An error occurred while uoloading one of your files.  Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your files."   It fails every time, any advice?  My server is TalkTalk which may explain everything !! ??   Help.

    Boot into Safe Mode, Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode, and order from there. 
    Also make a PDF file of your book according to this Apple Document, iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it, before you order to check for errors.  Keep that file to compare with the printed copy when it arrives.

  • Error occurred while uploading book to blurb

    Hi,
    I have sent dosens of books to blurb via lightroom without any issue, but I am getting the following error message
    "an error occured adding text and fonts to book"
    Anyone had this issue, and have any remedy to it? I have tried changing the layouts and fonts without success. I have the same issue when generating a pdf. I have just sent some other albums to blurb with no issue its only with this particular project, it also wont generate pdfs but will generate it as jpegs.
    Any help would be amazing as I dont want to have to redo this album!!!
    Cheers,
    Paul

    Just changed the font AGAIN, this time to Arial, and its now working... bizarre. So if anyone else has this issue, just keep hitting send lol!!!

  • Error occured while uploading the data for Tocde QP01 (BDC)

    Hi,
    I am facing a strange problem i.e. when i try to upload the data for the Tcode QP01 i am able to upload the data for the 18 rows but when it is more than 18 ,it gives the following error and saves the data upto 18 rows only :-
    CALL_TRANSACTION QP01 returncode:     0  RECORD:          0
    S Field RC27X-FLG_SEL . not found in loop of screen SAPLCPDI 1400
    S Cursor field PLMKB-VERWMERKM (18) does not exist in the screen
    S Field PLMKB-VERWMERKM (18) does not exist in the screen SAPLQPAA 0150
    S Field PLMKB-STICHPRVER (18) does not exist in the screen SAPLQPAA 0150
    S Inspection plan with plan group 12775 for material 200999 is saved
    Is there any way to solve this problem...

    hi,
    Ok,i agree with you but the thing is it was allowing to upload the data for more than 18 rows as there was logic written. It is specified in the code:-
    ELSEIF itab1-serial > 18 AND itab1-serial < 35.
                  IF index = 19.
                    index = 2.
                  ENDIF.

    I have been having this problem for a couple of months now. I just downloaded the latest version and it still will not let me send an attachment using the email icon on the top of the page

    Does that happen immediately after you click the email icon, or do you get a dialog like this first

    I am trying to order a book with iphoto, I keep getting the same error message.
    " A network error occurred while processing your order, please check your network connection and try again"
    I get the billing part up, it has even uploaded my jpegs but at the final process, I get the same message.
    I have ordered two books a few months ago without any problems.
    Now I keep getting the same message either half way into
    the order or at the final hurdle after the images have been uploaded.
    Any ideas?
    My shared Network has been fine and that does'nt seem an issue.

  • "an error has occurred while uploading one of your files "

    Using iLife '06, I've completed a book in iPhoto. I'm trying to buy it -- it goes through the assembling process and right before it's finished it says:
    "an error has occurred while uploading one of your files"
    But no other explanation is given. Same thing over and over and it always happens right beofre it finishes.
    Any ideas what's causing this?

    I can't tell you whats wrong but all i do is reboot iphoto, or worst case, restart the mac. and the next time it goes through like a whiz. I placed orders for 24 separate books this week and i have had everything imaginable go wrong but almost everything worked after restaring iphoto.....corrupt file, cannot authenticate user, cannot get credit card approval, problem with file transfer. Don't bother to use the RETRY button. email support was courteous and within 48 hours for other matters not solved by restarting.

  • IPhoto: An error occurred while trying to save your photo library.

    "An error occurred while trying to save your photo library.
    Some recent changes may be lost. Make sure your hard disk has enough space and that iPhoto is able to access the iPhoto Library."
    Basically, the same issues as this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1588998&tstart=0
    I have tried the BatchMod with no luck. If it matters, this is on an external hard drive and I am the only user on this computer. Looking at the info of the library file, I have read/write/execute permissions and my group has read permissions only. I thought BatchMod would change these permissions but it doesn't seem to work.
    Actually, I restarted my computer and it works now. But I am still worried it might happen again. Has anyone else encountered this problem?
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If it's working now it could have been a one time hiccup. Do you backup your library on a regular basis? If not you definitely should.
    If the library gets damaged/corrupted you won't lose your photos but can lose all of your organizational effort that you put into the library. If the external HD crashes then you will lose all.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) 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 created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

    What is the device that is immediately plugged into the main modem or router? Has that one been able to update?
    It is plugged in of course isn't it.. no nasty join wireless anywhere??
    The best way to work around these sort of problems is to simplify the network.. Plug each device directly into the main router.. by ethernet. You can trigger the firmware upgrade by wireless but use ipad or iphone version of airport utility and see what happens.
