Facebook Export

When I select a bunch of photos and export them using the built-in Facebook Export, every single photo gets its own Homepage notification.
This is very annoying because the Homepage is swarmed by my upload notifications and all other older notifications (from other people) are pushed from the page.
And because all my friends can see my photos, they see this same effect on their Homepage too.
How can this be solved?... I just want 1 notification of an album upload.
Tnx

You may also have to do the same for iPhoto Uploader.

  • Problems with exporting after Facebook export installation

    Hi there,
    I installed the Facebook exporter app and then discovered my iPhoto is too old (it is iPhoto 4). Thereafter I was unable to export anything because my mac would crash. So I uninstalled the app and since then my normal export button is missing. I found a forum on this site, where the same problem was solved, but this was for someone with iLife 08 and required a reinstallation from disk.
    The problem is, I bought OS X 10.5 recently but not iLife, so my iPhoto etc is from the old days. I would be totally, infinitely and unbelievably grateful if someone could help me out here, because I currently cannot export anything from iPhoto. Which disk do I use for reinstallation? When I bought my mac it had 10.3 on it. How do I reinstall iPhoto when my operating system is new? Help!
    Cheers,
    Kerry

    Thanks for that - unfortunately I have lost disk number 1 and can only find disk number 2. Honestly, I never thought I'd need them, and they've been packed and unpacked at least 4 times since I bought the computer.
    I am trying to get the disk from mac friends - I'll see what happens. If anyone knows how to get hold of these old disks, or another work-around, I'd be very grateful...
    cheers and thanks again,
    Kerry

  • Facebook Export Shows Partial Album List

    I am using Facebook Exporter with the latest version of Bridge, and the latest Export modules.  Both Bridge and the Modules themselves have been updated as of today.  I've been able to successfully export to Facebook, but the issue is that the Albums window does not display all of my albums.  There are more than 5 albums missing from the list.  Anyone have the same issue?

    HAVE probelm with the FACEBOOK EXPORT too
    when I first installed it did not work at all
    then it did- it seemed to me a log in issue-
    whenit worked it was GREAT! I never has the problem of not seeing the album names, it always logged me out of FB for my next visit
    however every photo I uploaded to FB from Bridge export is now gone!! last two days
    All the albums created in the Bridge interface are gone and all the pictures into other albums that were not uploaded by Bridge are still in FB but not any I added via Bridge
    using CS5
    tried to update modules says no updates
    using win xp sp3
    error I get when trying to connect to FB is
       "error": {
          "type": "OAuthException",

  • How do I remove the Facebook Exporter for iPhoto?

    Hello,
    I have recently installed v1.0.8 of Facebook Exporter for iPhoto, and it hangs on the first picture I attempt to upload. It is unusable. I had found the previous version 1.0.6 which worked great and downloaded that, and subsequently attempted to install it. However, the installer errors out stating that there is already a previous version installed. The v1.0.6 and v1.0.8 installers, do not have an uninstall feature either. Direct support for this package is impossible from the developer.
    I'm asking if anyone could lay out exactly what I need to remove in order that I can proceed with downgrading to the v1.0.6 once again. I have asked in other forums(not here) and have had only "upgrade all your software to the latest versions and everything should work" answers, which were and are completely useless. If an upgrade is required of something, please be specific as to why.
    Note that, I have already performed this function as outlined here, http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=222897111055523, which simply describes deleting a folder in their install directory. This has not worked, meaning the removal has worked, however reinstalling the previous version envokes the error about a later version.
    Versions involved;
    MacBook Pro, 2.53ghz, core 2 duo
    MacOS v10.6.8
    iPhoto '09, v8.1..2 (424)
    Thanks,
    Mark

  • Problems with the Facebook Exporter in iPhoto 08

    Has anybody successfully used the Facebook Exporter plugin for iPhoto? Every time I try to upload multiple photos, it has a bar saying "Exporting 1/{whatever number}", but then comes up with the following error:
    "Couldn't upload photo "{photo number}" because an unknown error occurred."
    ...and it gives me the option of:
    "Back to Facebook Exporter" or "Review Facebook Album"
    ...if I click on the latter, it goes to Facebook and shows that the first Photo has indeed uploaded successfully. So I've been going through doing it one at a time but that is pretty tedius!
    Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? It doesn't matter what the photo's are, it does it every time.
    Cheers.

    Must have been a dodgy version of the exporter as having downloaded an update it works fine...

  • Aperture 3 and Facebook exporting???  doesn't update

    So I tried the new Facebook exporter from Aperture 3. You can only put pics in a new Facebook album, or drag them into an album that you have created from within Aperture 3. But when I add photos by dragging them, they do not show up on Facebook. Aperture 3 says they are there, but they are not on Facebook. How do I add photos to an album? Anyone else have this bug in Aperture 3?

    After you drag new photos into the Facebook album, you have to click on the little radar-wave-looking icon to re-sync the album. I think there is a setting somewhere to make it auto-refresh, but by default they're manually synced.
    It's annoying that you can't seem to connect to an existing Facebook album. Hopefully they'll fix that.
    It would also be nice if you could connect to more than 1 Facebook account (I don't think you can) -- my wife and I keep our shared photo collection on Aperture, but I think only one of us can use it to sync photos to Facebook.

  • Any way to stop facebook exporter from using version names as the caption

    I tried the Aperture 3 facebook export and it is using the version names as the caption. If I change the caption on facebook it then changes the version name in my aperture library when it syncs with facebook. Is there anyway to have it use the caption meta data field instead? You would think if they had that option for mobile me they would have it for FB too.

    Add me to the list of people interested by this issue - but AFAIK there is no way to change this. Let's hope Apple fixes this soon.

  • Facebook exporter for iPhoto 11 problem!

    I previously had installed the Facebook exporter for iPhoto and it worked fine. It always showed up as a tab in File Export. Now with Iphoto 11 the tab for facebook has disappeared. I went to the download page for it again to reinstall it and when I go through the installation process and it asks where to install I have the exclamation mark on my Mac hard drive with the following error. "Facebook exporter for iPhoto can't be installed on this disk. A newer version of this software already exists on this disk.
    I went to plugins and removed it yet I still get this error on reinstallation. Why won't the exporter work anymore or install?
    I like this much better than the built in one on iPhoto as it lets me caption each photo before I upload.

    I found the problem
    It seems the version of facebook exporter found on the applesite is an older one.
    I downloaded a newer version on versiontracker and that fixed it.
    tha one I am using now is facebook exporter iphoto v 1.0.5
    cheers

  • LR 3.2 Facebook Export Error

    Hello everyone,
    I keep getting a "Failed to Retrieve item info" when I try to publish my photos using Lightroom's facebook export publish feature.  I was able to use it a month ago but every time that I try to publish new albums to facebook it gives me that error.  I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling lightroom, tried uninstalling the facebook exporting option from lightroom, tried reauthenticating to facebook and nothing works.
    Does anyone have a fix for this?  A lot of my clients like it when I upload pictures for Facebook but I haven't been able to do so in a long time.
    If it's any concern, I'm currently using an Apple Macbook Pro 15" i7 and x64 lightroom 3.2.
    Does anyone have a fix so that I don't get that error and can publish to facebook again?

    I found too that the publishing services work differently than the plug-ins.  Not as intuitive, but work well just the same,  For me I had to do the "set-up" for the Facebook publishing service a couple of times.  I think this may have more to do with the Facebook security settings than with LR.

  • Facebook Export freezes Aperture

    Every time I try to export to Facebook Aperture freezes any ideas. PS No thumbnails appear in the export window.
    I am now running on Snow Leopard

    Philip,
    I'm right there with ya. I'm experiencing the same thing. I emailed Sean Farley and received the following response:
    +"I have stopped working on+
    +0.5.2 and have rebuilt it from scratch. Although it is not quite ready+
    +for release at the moment because I have been busy with my PhD.+
    +The core difference between the two (besides the fact that I wrote the+
    +Aperture one and not the iPhoto one) is the way that Aperture loads+
    +its plugins. Basically, the fact that Aperture puts each plugin in its+
    +own NSRunLoop is good but unfortunately, NSURL was not design for that+
    +(ask Apple as to why, I have no idea). This makes it a little spotty+
    +for maintaining a url connection. This is drastically improved in the+
    +new version, though. In comparison, the export plugin for Flickr has+
    +its own NSURL that Fraser wrote himself. This is definitely not going+
    +to be in the Facebook exporter unless he opens up that code.+
    +Sorry for the late reply and the sorta bad news :-/+
    Sean"
    Not sure when the new version is coming out. Let me know if you find any other workarounds.

  • IPhoto facebook exporter login error

    I know this is a common problem, or was, but I am trying to login to facebook via iPhoto exporter.  When I click on logon, it just says
    "An error occurred with Facebook Exporter for iPhoto. Please try again later."
    I've been at this for a few days trying to figure it out.  I've deleted com.apple.iphoto.plist, deleted my cookies, tried to reinstall safari, (even though I use firefox and it pops up).  Is there a preference that I am not selecting?  It is becoming quite frustrating, and I'm not sure if there is another way to do things (other than export whole album on to desktop and do it manually from facebook).  Any help would be appreciated!!!
    I use a macbook pro
    Mac OS 10.5.8
    iphoto '09 (8.1.2)
    Safari 5.06
    Firefox 6.02
    HELP

    We are having the same problem. However, I don't think it has anything to do with the software on our computer because the exporter works on my facebook account but not on my wife's. But I can't see what causes it.

  • FaceBook export and iPhone Sync

    I have used the FaceBook exporter for iPhoto and the exporter for Aperture. The former works fine the latter hangs. Insofar as it seems to usually manage to send the images, though not always, but the export activity just gets stuck going round and round and I have to cancel in the activity window. I have uninstalled the plug in and installed a newly downloaded version but no success. Am I alone?
    Am I alone in using Aperture and iPhoto side by side, each being suited to a particular kind of task (work/leisure etc)? If not, does anyone know a way to be able to sync selected Aperture AND iPhoto images to an iPhone? It is very irksome having to to select certain images in one and move them across to the other, just so I can take the images I want with me on the road.

    Hey Kakgungor,
    What problem are you having? I have been able to use the Facebook uploader with not too many hiccups except a few recent ones.
    1. Sometimes what is uploaded from Aperture is the unrotated, unedited pictures. Also, long version names from Aperture (which stupidly sync as the caption) tend to cause this, in my experience. I had to create new versions from the masters and apply the adjustments again, then upload only went smoothly when I left the version name as-is and edited later.
    2. When albums don't load completely to Facebook, often you get "missing" image markers in your Facebook album, even after re-syncing.
    3. Tags/Faces don't really sync back & forth that well. I'm still testing this out.
    Share with us your problem so we can figure something out and maybe write bug reports to Apple & Facebook & Flickr.

  • Iphoto facebook exporter - faded images

    Hi can anyone help me with my problem? Ive been using the iphoto facebook explorer for ages, but all of a sudden it is uploading my images with the colours very faded to facebook.
    Ive uninstalled and reinstalled - done the lastest iphoto upgrades..
    any other ideas?
    Thanks!!

    Looks like you still don't get it. Normally if we upload photos using Facebook Exporter for iPhoto, the images would still retain the 'colour information' but obviously lose some quality (like size, clarity, etc.) but the COLOUR stays, thus the photo will look similar to the one we have in iPhoto.
    Meanwhile, uploading manually using the default Facebook photo uploader will result in the stripping of colour information, so basically before this problem happened, photos uploaded using this method will look a little faded in color and of course crappier than using the iPhoto. However, most Mac user might not realize this fact since they have been uploading photos to Facebook using iPhoto.
    And the problem we're having right now is uploading using iPhoto actually results in really crappier images than using default method. The colour information is no longer retained, the colour looks 'faded', desaturated, less contrast. It's so bad, that people who normally use iPhoto to upload would realise a huge difference. This is a fact, the discussions page for the Facebook Exporter for iPhoto is full of people complaining about this. It's not about why should we care about photo quality in Facebook, it's about why this problem happened. And so far no one has come up with any solutions, and neither Apple nor Facebook has responded.

  • Can't export from iphoto '11 to facebook with facebook exporter

    Help!
    I've been trying to export photos from iPhoto '11 (Version 9.2.1) without success.  I am running OS X (10.6.8).  This is the error message I keep seeing, no matter which way I attempt to make a connection (through the 'Accounts' window in Preferences, or through the 'Share' tab when I select a photo to export).
    Here are the following steps I have taken, without any success:
    Changed my Facebook password.
    Logged out of Facebook.
    Downloaded and installed the 'Facebook Exporter for iPhoto' plugin from Facebook; alhtough this is suspect, since here's the most recent comment from Facebook on this plugin:
    The home for the Facebook Exporter for iPhoto - athttp://developers.facebook.com /iphoto/ - is temporarily down, as we build out a new version of it. In the meantime, you can download the application from this profile page, using the button at the left. Happy photo sharing!

    Re-booted my Mac after installing the plugin.
    Verified that the plugin is actually on my hard drive.
    Searched Google and Apple Support for help, but here I am...
    I really don't like Facebook, so maybe this the final hint that I should just give it up...

    Use Apple mail - set in the iPhoto preferences

  • What happened to facebook exporter for iphoto?

    I keep getting an error when trying to share photos from iphoto to facebook. I have tried all the common things, but now I see that there is no longer facebook exporter for iphoto. I have had this Macbook Air since May, and was able to share photos via iphoto exporter to facebook, and now all of a sudden it is not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I had Iphoto exporter plugin installed previously and it would show up on file-export as an option. Then mysteriously it was gone as an option. I tried to download the plugin again from Cnet and when I try to install it I get and error saying "It can't be opened because of an inidentified developer my security preferences only allow installation of only apps from your Mac app store and identified developers"
    How do I turn off that security so I can reinstall it again. As for why my original install disappeared I am mystified about that. Why was it there one month and then poof gone the next month?
    I like that 3rd party plugin as it lets me caption all the photo's and rearrange the order and write a discription all in one application. It works better than the share button way of doing it to facebook.
    Is it not compatible with Iphoto 9.4.1?
