Quit iPhoto and to to the iPhoto library (by default in your pictures folder) - right click (control click) on it and select show package contents - find the folder named import (on importing) and drag it to the desktop - DO NOT MAKE ANY OTHER CHANGES - launch iPhoto and you will be fine.
Open the import(ing) folder and if there is nothing in it that you need move it to the trash and empty the trash

  • Everytime I open iphoto, my computer tells me A photo has been found in the iPhoto Library that was not imported.  Would you like to import it.  no matter what I do, iphoto puts the pic in recovered files.  How do I fix this?

    Everytime I open iphoto, my computer tells me,  A photo has been found in the iPhoto Library that was not imported.  Would you like to import it.  If I import it, a message comes up Unreadable file, the following file could not be imported. them it tells me where the file is and it cannot be opened.  If I do not import, then it says,The photo has been placed in the folder /Users/patrick*******/Pictures/iPhoto Library Recovered Photos_4.  It will just keep adding to recvovered photos.  This drives me crazy!!!!!!!  How do I fix this?

    I had this problem some months ago and the following solution from Terrence Delvin put things right:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.
    However, since connecting a memory stick to my computer, I now have the same problem again.  This time there is no folder called 'Import' or 'Importing' so what should I do?

  • A photo has been found in the iphoto library that has not been imported???

    When i open iphoto i get a message saying "a photo has been found in the iphoto library that has not been imported, would you like to import it?" I have tried what everyone is saying to do, but when i look under show package contents there is no import folder to move. only a folder that says contents and i've looked all through that, still no import folder. Even though i click no i do not want the photo imported it still is stored on my external hard drive and every so often i have to go delete TONS of photos and when you click on the photo it doesn't even actually show up as anything.

    but when i look under show package contents there is no import folder to move. only a folder that says contents
    You're looking at the iPhoto.app package. Those instructions are for the iPhoto Library package. That's in your Pictures Folder.

  • Why does "a photo has been found in the iPhoto library that was not imported" message appear every time I open i photo?

    It happens on my iMac, and now that I have transferred some photos from that computer to my MacBook it is happening there, too.  If I say that I don't want to import it, it "saves" it automatically to a file somewhere on the hard drive.  That folder appears empty when opened, so I'm not sure what it's saving.  Every time I open iPhoto it asks me twice before I can proceed, and creates two neat little folders with nothing in them.  If I say that I do want to import the mystery photo, it plunks the nothing that has not been imported in to a Recovered Photos album.  Once again, nothing there.  Any ideas as to how to fix this problem?

  • A photo has been found in the iPhoto Library that was not imported

    Every time I open iPhoto, I receive this error.
    I've already read through the posts on here that state to "simply go to the iPhoto library folder and delete.... " and so on an so forth....
    My problem? I don't have an iPhoto Library folder in my Pictures folder. I don't have an iPhoto Library folder anywhere on my hard disk. I do have an icon for iPhoto Library in my Pictures folder, but it's not a folder. It's a shortcut to the iPhoto program. 
    This has been happening for a while now, and I'm so thoroughly irritated that I'm ready to give up on iPhoto altogether. Help!

  • Trouble with solution for A photo has been found in the iPhoto Library that

    I tried the solution offered by moving the "Import" folder to the desktop and iPhoto does open now without that pesky message. However, the next step of moving the "Import" folder from the desktop to the trash is troublesome because of the contents. I recently moved 5 years of photos from a backup external hard drive so that I could sync them with Apple TV. All of those photos are in that "Import" folder and I fear having to import them all over again if I move that folder to the Trash.
    I would appreciate ideas about safely getting rid of the folder and not losing the photos.
    Thanks.

    If those photos are in your iPhoto library when you open iPhoto then just more the import(ing) folder to the trash - do not empty the trash and test iPhoto - if everything is still ok empty the trash

  • HT1338 Every time I open Secondlife my MacBook Pro crashes.. This has been happening every since i upgraded to OS X 10.8.1 (12B19)

    Everytime i open secondlife my MAC dies this has started happening every since i down loaded
    OS X 10.8.1 (12B19)

    You showed a kernel panic file from OS X, apprantly Log Me In is installed into OS X or running when you log in.
    You should be using the developers installer/unistaller to remove Log Me In from OS X.
    Somehow it's in OS X, I don't know, but it's there and you need to remove it. I'm not dealing with Windows, just OS X.
    Talk to Log Me In people and find out what is installed where so you can do a manual deletion out of OS X.
    If that doesn't work, you have to reboot holding the Shift key down manually search for any Log Me In or Himachi files on your computer, in your System/Library/Extensions folder too, use the free Easy Find.

    Hi mcclausky, you may need to manually remove a policy setting from the registry. You also should scan for malware that might have created this problem.
    This article lists scanning and cleaning tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
    To check your Windows registry for policy settings that might affect Firefox or other programs, I suggest consulting a Windows forum or Microsoft's forums. For example:

  • A photo found in the iPhoto library that was not imported

    Every time I open iPhoto, I receive a message saying "A photo has been found in the iPhoto library that was not imported. Would you like to import it?" If I select yes, a box pops up saying "Unreadable file. The file was not imported, the file was missing." and then the photo's path. If I select no, the photo gets placed in a recovery file. I can see the photo in the recovery file, it is a photo that I locked (and maybe marked hidden - if you can even do both). I've tried to go into my iPhoto and unhide photos so that I can unlock the original...I've also tried unlocking the photo in the recovered file. I've tried deleting the photo in the recovery file as well...I can unlock it in Finder and delete it, but (with my limited knowledge of computers) I've determined that I must only be deleting a copy. Where is the original...I'd like to delete it. I don't even need this pic anymore and it is SERIOUSLY IRRITATING ME every time I open iPhoto. And that's often, as I'm always taking pics of my little one. TIA!!!!! Sara

  • Every time I open Safari, I get a message (and a pop-up) that says the Safari browser I'm using does not support Community Toolbar. How can I get rid of the Community Toolbar or at least turn it off?

    Every time I open Safari, I get a message (and a pop-up) that says the Safari browser I'm using does not support Community Toolbar. How can I get rid of the Community Toolbar or at least turn it off?

    That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
    Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
    /Library/Application Support/Conduit
    /Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
    /Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
    /Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
    /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
    /Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
    If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
    Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
    Library/Application support/conduit plugins
    Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.
