Facebook and Faces = Bad

I received a new computer and I'm struggling with the Face function. I can upload photos to Facebook from iPhoto but only the first 60 in an album or event. If I want to upload the additional photos to Facebook, I can do that from Facebook (like I used to), but I cannot find the photos. I ran a search and found that I can go to Pictures - > iPhoto Library -> Data -> 2009 -> and then the date, but the original pictures are not there. I only am able to load the iPhoto "faces" pictures of most of my photos.
So, my questions are..
1) Where is my computer storing my original pictures?
2) How can I upload original photos and not iPhoto face photos to Facebook without first exporting them from iPhoto to my desktop?
3) Apple... really? Everyone hates Faces. Should I make a poster and picket?

1) Where is my computer storing my original pictures?
In the iPhoto Library in your Pictures Folder. With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
How can I upload original photos and not iPhoto face photos to Facebook without first exporting them from iPhoto to my desktop?
Use one, some or all of the following:
*For Users of 10.5 Only*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and 10.5* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
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.
3) Apple... really? Everyone hates Faces. Should I make a poster and picket?
rejames... really? You have any reason why we should assume you speak for “everybody”?

  • Facebook and Faces Weirdness

    Does anyone have insights into how Facebook and user tagging in synced Facebook albums works? I understand this much: Faces turn into tags, and if the e-mail associated with a Face matches a Facebook user's e-mail address, the tag is linked to that user. I also get that the Faces and tags can't be fully synced since when a tagged user removes his tag on Facebook, you don't want that deleting the corresponding Face in Aperture.
    But what happens if the album owner deletes (or adds) a tag in Facebook, should that get synced back to Aperture?
    In theory, I should just be able to test that and see, but before I even get there, weirdness happens. After uploading an image and syncing a few times, but having made no changes to either the Facebook or Aperture version, some Faces in Aperture change to their Facebook version (I loose the connection to the Face I tagged, and instead get a little facebook icon) while others go blank (the face is still marked, but as "unnammed"). There seems to be no pattern, that I can discern to what faces Facebookized, what ones go blank, and which ones are unbothered; though it often seems to be the same few people.
    The bottom line: +I'm loosing Faces I've entered in images in my Aperture library because I'm syncing them with images on Facebook+. That can't be the plan. Does anyone else see this happening? Is it a known bug? Is it part of some feature I'm not using right?

    Roy,
    Here are some things I've been able to do successfully.
    1. I uploaded a photo to an album, tagged the photo on Facebook, sync'd the album in Aperture and the name appeared on the photo in Aperture.
    2. I took another photo of the same person, added the name in Aperture to match what was on Facebook, but not as a FB name just a normal name, and then sync'd the album 5 times. I did not see any weirdness like you described.
    3. Took the same photo from step 2, removed the tag on Facebook, sync'd the album in Aperture and the name tag stayed in Aperture.
    Does that help explain some things for you?

  • Whenever i start iphoto, it starts connected to Facebook and start uploading my photos to face book which i do not want., whenever i start iphoto, it starts connected to Facebook and start uploading my photos to face book which i do not want.

    Whenever I start iphoto on my macbook pro, its start connecting to facebook and uploading my photos, which i donot want to upload.  Please advise, how to stop iphoto to connecting from facebook.

    Then change that setting in iPhoto. First disconnect your system from the net, IE turn off the WiFi and disconnect the Ethernet cable if one is connected. Then open iPhoto and open the preferences and in the Accounts section remove Facebook. You might also want to look in the sharing section.

  • Tried to download Font General for Facebook and Firefox prevented the site from asking me to download. Is it a "bad" program?

    I was searching for emoticons on Facebook....and a link came up for Font General ...to use different type fonts on Facebook. I clicked on the download for FireFox and a small box popped up saying "FireFox has prevented this site (www.fontgeneral.com) from asking you to install software on your computer. There was a button that I could click to ALLOW....but I wanted to know if there was a possibility of the program being known to be unsafe.

    Firefox only comes with two sites pre-approved to install add-ons, because add-ons have full privileges and you want to be pretty careful about which ones you install.
    The warning you got was a general notice. As far as I know, Mozilla doesn't test or even try to keep track of add-ons that don't come from the official add-ons site.
    Facebook and web search would be good resources for further research.

  • Firefox will not connect to Tumblr, Facebook, and Google sites.

    I had an issue where my computer completely froze up and I had to force restart. When I logged back on, Firefox no longer trusted Google or Facebook. Youtube seems ok, it's just sites with "google.com" in the URL... and Facebook.
    Here's the error message I am getting:
    This Connection is Untrusted
    You have asked Firefox to connect
    securely to maps.google.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
    Normally, when you try to connect securely,
    sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
    going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.
    What Should I Do?
    If you usually connect to
    this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is
    trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.
    maps.google.com uses an invalid security certificate.
    The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided.
    (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)
    I accepted that I would take the risks, but these sites won't load images. What good is Facebook without faces? Any ideas?
    (A user on another site suggested uninstalling Firefox, cleaning the registry, and then re-installing. Doing this made Tumblr stop working)

    *deep breath* Ok. All is well. Thank you all for your help. I wouldn't have realised what the issue was otherwise. I'm good now

  • IPhoto 9.1.5 and faces not saving causes synch to crash

    Since updating to lion OS on my imac (OS 10.7), I found time to edit a batch of iPhotos (iPhoto 11 9.1.5).  In particular i took the time to add names to faces.  Like other users i found some of the information did not seem to "take."  THis problem became bigger when i synched my iPad 2 (iOS 4.3.3 iTunes 10.4). I use it as an electronic photo fram when I'm at work during the day.  The events and faces files that included those facews where the information did not "take" now cause the iPad synch to crash with the error (-50). The ipad support folks could not help, even though we:
    restarted the iMac
    restarted the iPad
    restarted iPhoto
    restarted iTunes
    deleted all photos from the iPad
    deleted the iPad Photo Cache from the iPhoto l;ibrary file under my user name
    resynched the iPad and tried to add all the iPhotos back fresh
    The only way i can get photos onto my iPad now is to choose individual events.  Some faces will not load at all, and with over 3500 photos, i don't have time to go back and edit the bad ones out of the other events.
    i've submitted a bug report to the iPhoto folks.
    anyone else having this specific problem who has a solution?
    thanks in advance

  • Photo's on Facebook and Farmville have disappeared. How do I get them back?

    My photo's of friends have disappeared on Facebook and Farmville and I cannot get them back! How can I retrieve the photo's? I had a problem with my 1st account and stopped using it and opened another account under the same name and I tried to delete the 1st account and all of my photo's disappeared. My personal photo is just a full face shot. The first account photo was of me on the beach which I want to delete.
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == I tried to delete my 1st account under Jane Marchesani Karkosky

    It is possible that you accidentally clicked the 'Block Images' item in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.
    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions - See [[Options window - Content panel]]
    A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (''Site Identification'' icon) on the left side of the location bar and click the "More Information" button.
    This will open the Security tab of the ''Page Info'' window (also accessible via Tools > Page Info).
    Go to the ''Media'' tab of that Page Info window.
    Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow.
    If an image is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box ''Block Images from...'' then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • I keep getting an intermittent error on web pages where a blue box with a question mark appears instead of pictures.  For example Facebook and Zappos would load normally on one visit, but if I visit other websites and return I get the blue box.

    I keep getting an intermittent error on web pages where a blue box with a question mark appears instead of pictures.  For example Facebook and Zappos would load normally on one visit, but if I visit other websites and return I get the blue box instead of pictures.

    HI,
    From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Appearance tab. Tick the box next to: Display images when the page opens.
    If that box is already ticked, from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset. Relaunch Safari. If you still have problems loading images, go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
    Make sure Safari is not running in Rosetta. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle so it faces down. Where you see Open using Rosetta... make sure that is NOT selected.
    If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If it's a successful launch, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.

  • I seem to have picked up some sort of virus or bug of some kind.  I'm getting personals ads throughout my Facebook and yahoo home page.  i've tried CCleaner and it takes them off but only for a short time so i downloaded iantivirus but that found nothing

    i seem to have picked up some sort of virus or bug of some kind.  I'm getting personals ads throughout my Facebook and yahoo home page.  i've tried CCleaner and it takes them off but only for a short time so i downloaded iantivirus but that found nothing

    It may not be a good soloution for a novice, but I have been using hosts files to block unwanted URLs for many years with zero disasters and lots of positive results.
    As I noted, whenever I find a new "bad" site, I simply add the name to my hosts file. It takes a few seconds and then it's gone forever. I find no difficulty whatsoever.
    No, it's not for everyone, which is why I gave no specific details; but for those who are interested and have the desire to learn about these hosts files, it is a very good way to avoid "bad" websites.
    I also enjoy the "clean" view of a webpage when there are no ads showing at all. The page loads faster and  the distractions are gone.
    I never realized how much junk I am supressing until I got my iPad and saw all those horrid ads that are blocked on my other computers.
    Here is a typical result of properly using a hosts file:

  • What is difference between ADF Task Flow and Faces-Config - when delpoy ?

    What is difference between ADF Task Flow and Faces-Config? When I create navigation between pages with ADF task flow then the navigation don't work when I deploy my application to Weblogic 10.3. When I use default server then navigation works fine. With Faces_config in both situations all works ok - on Stanalone server and default.
    Where is the problem?
    Best regards!

    Shay, I don't use both faces-config and adf task flow! When I failed with task flow I tried faces-config.
    I have active on my weblogic - adf.oracle.domain(1.0,11.1.1.0.0). This is the right ADF? If yes then where is the problem?
    Best regards!
