Facebook photo upload from Iphoto

Hi, am trying to upload some photos from iphoto onto fb, but for the 1st time it is telling me I need Iphoto 5. I am not computer savvy and don't know how to do this. Please help.

Sharing to Facebook directly from iPhoto does not work well right now.
See this fix posted by LarryHN:

If the above does not work, export your photos from iPhoto and then upload them from the Desktop using Facebooks uploader.
For how to access your photos in iPhoto see:

  • Photos uploaded from iPhoto '11 to facebook keep removing themselves at random.

    Hi Guys and Girls,
    My Photos uploaded from iPhoto '11 to facebook keep removing themselves at random. Who else is having this annoying issue?
    Cheers,
    Keegan

    Do not use the iPhoto - Facebook link - as advertised changes on either side are automatically synced to the other - that is the way it works
    If you do not want the features that iPhoto offers then upload directly form a web browser or other method

  • Facebook pictures uploaded from iPhoto get displayed in low resolution on mac browsers

    ... but is otherwise fine on PC version of the browsers.
    When viewing facebook photos on Safari (or Chrome, or Firefox) on Mac, photos uploaded using iPhoto get displayed in low res. Manually uploaded (through facebook upload tool) photos are displayed ok.

    Hi Jon,
    Thank so much for your reply. That portion I comfortable with, but was thinking I could take photos with my mobile phone and have them sync to a folder on my PC as my originals. I dont want to download photo's from my phone. It does work as desired exept the fact that the photos resolution is lower on the PC than the "originals" on the Revel website.
    If I right click on the photo in PE and select "download original from revel" it works, but sort of defeats it purpose in my case.
    It seems like Photoshop is not importing the pic at the original resolution. ie to me I would expect a "import original resolution" inside photoshop.
    I am using PE12.
    I dont like to compare PE revel to apple iCloud, but this is how their software works. If I take a photo on my iPhone its on my mac in full res within minutes to do with as I please. This is what I was thinking Revel could do for me and more. Dropbox, Onedrive and Googledrive all support this, but then I have to import it into PE.
    Once again. Thanks for taking the time to reply. Much appreciated!!
    Kind Regards

  • Safari crashes when trying to use facebook photo upload

    I have been using facebook photo upload from Iphoto with out any problems. Tonight I tried it and it shuts down safari happened a couple of times but it corrupted my whole photo library and now Iphoto shows the measage that it is totally corupted and unusable. Any one got any ideas to get it working and to recover photos

    Hello cap:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    Please post your iPhoto question in the iPhoto forum. There are ways to recover, I think, but I am not an iPhoto "expert." Photos are precious and I think you will get the best guidance for possible recovery in the iPhoto forum. There are some real experts there.

  • Facebook photos teeny-tiny when I upload from iPhoto

    Whenever I upload pictures from my iPhoto to facebook they are really small. It doesn't matter what camera they come from...they are always tiny when I upload from iPhoto. If I upload directly from my phone they are a normal size.. Anyone know how to help??

    exactly how are you uploading to facebook?
    The best way is to select the photos and click on the facebook icon in the tool bar and use the iPhoto uploader

  • My computer freezes up when trying to upload photo book from iPhoto '11. This happens during the upload process.

    My computer freezes up when trying to upload photo book from iPhoto '11. This happens during the upload process.
    When this happens I need to close down the computer and restart.
    Any ideas ?
    I've got Mountain Lion running.
    I'm on a 13" white MacBook with 8GB RAM installed.
    I recently had a 1 TB hard disc installed at the Apple store.

    can you preview it? -
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
    If that works fine and you still have problems boot into safe mode and try again

  • How to upload from iphoto to icloud in title order using photo share (not photo stream)?

    I can get the albums within iphoto (V9.6) into title order, however when they are uploaded to icloud (photo share, not photo stream) they lose that order. Can the photo shared images on the icloud web link be uploaded/or organised into the order that I have painstakingly created?

    December 2014 Case Resolved by midnorthcoast
    I found Old Toad's remedy presented by Tedious Tom here Keeping desired order of photos when sharing on iCloud
    After labelling (titling) each of the 300 or so images carefully in numerical order I wanted to be sure that that's how they would be viewed once uploaded from iPhoto to Photo Share (not Photo Stream).  Note that I didn't want the ensuing iCloud weblink to be automatically emailed to others. I wanted to email the link personally. I find the automatic invitation's presentation confusing in regard to having to register to view the images or simply clicking the less obvious link. Plus I wanted the invitation to be more personal.
    Here's how I did it:
    Transferred images from Finder to their own album within iPhoto
    With the album open, made sure images were in title order,  View/Sort Photos/By Title
    Selected all images
    Followed Old Toad's advice (except I changed from 1 minute to 1 second),  Photos/Batch Change/Set Date/Add 1 second between each photo
    Shared with iCloud,  Share/iCloud
    Dialogue box comes up, Clicked on New photo stream
    Another dialogue box,  filled in one of my email addresses (not my iCloud identity), unticked Subscribers Can Post, ticked Public Website, clicked Share
    Opened iCloud within iPhoto and waited until finished uploading
    Highlighted the album, clicked Info, copied the weblink shown under Public Website and pasted into personal email invitations

  • Uploading from iphoto shuts down my browsers

    When I try to upload from iphoto (not with the iphoto facebook uploader but through the files to my blog for example) it shuts down my browser. I have tried this on several browsers - chrome, safari, firefox - they all crash.  WHY? And how do I fix this?  I am using iLife 9.  Please help.

    Thank you for your response.
    I attempt to upload photos to either of my blogs (wordpress and blogger) by clicking to choose files from my computer -> under the "MEDIA" section on the left column I click photos -> I am given the options of iphoto or photobooth -> click iphoto -> at which point i have the option to pick events or photos or last import, etc.  When I click events the browser then freezes up and then shuts down all windows that are open. 
    Sometimes it allows me to take the photos from the "last import" section under iphoto. 
    I CAN upload photos directly from my desktop, but I don't want to drag or copy/paste everything to the desktop if I don't have to. 
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

  • New to Mac-- Security Certificates and facebook photo uploader question

    Hi all,
    I'm new to Mac and really have to idea how to fix my problems, so please bear with me as I ask what may be a dumb question.
    I was attempting to upload a photo into a pre-existing album on facebook. Because the album was created before I switched to Mac, I did not use iPhoto to publish it, and attempted to use the Facebook photo uploader. On my PC, it would ask to download the Facebook photo-installer add-on, which would then be deleted and need be be reinstalled if I cleared my internet explorer history fully (Maybe this is why PCs are far less stable...but I digress)
    When I navigated to the photo uploader, I received a message from Java that something was wrong with the security certificate of the application. I clicked "don't trust" because the other options were "trust" and "show certificate"...it all happened so fast, I don't remember the exact language, and I wanted to keep my Mac as stable as possible. Now, the photo uploader is nothing but a red "X" in the upper left corner of where the application should be
    I reset all of my Java defaults. I reset Safari (deleted history and all that, by doing Safari-->reset Safari) I don't know what else to do and I don't want to accept that I did something irreversible within a week of having my new computer...PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

  • Trying to figure how photos "travel" from iPhoto to my iWeb photo pages

    Greetings,
    I have I believe gotten t understand just about all I need for now about building web sites with iWeb and its templates (for now). Works well. I am publishing to my .Mac account (for now).
    Now, I want to fully understand how photos albums/pages are kept up/coordinated, on my computer, on .Mac Gallery and on the actual .Web site (on .Mac)
    Here what I have done so far in regard to posting and upkeeping photos (works well!):
    Selected pics from iPhoto >>> Made albums on my MBP
    Published Albums on Web Gallery
    Built website with iWeb
    Built photo pages/my album page (indexing)
    Inserted my Web Gallery albums into my website
    Published the whole thing on .Mac.
    My questions:
    *1. Somewhere in Tutorials, it says that: "with .Mac Web Gallery, you can get the shots you wish you had by allowing friends to contribute photos (from their browsers, email). And, whenever new photos are added, they are automatically sinced to your iPhoto08 library".* I am assuming same should/would happen when my iWeb site viewers upload theirs pics (which I am encouraging!) to my Web galleries via my iWeb site. I do not see that happen however. Web gallery gets of course updated by such uploads, +but NOT iPhoto library.+
    2. Some other iWeb Tutorial states *"If you are a .Mac member, you can publish photos/movies from iPhoto and iMovie directly to your Web Gallery. When a Gallery photo album is updated, your website is updated automatically with the new content."*. In the case of my site viewers' uploads to my gallery, works OK, but +my site's pages do not show the new photos.+. Any way to better coordinate my .Mac Web galleries with my (also) .Mac Web Pages?
    I hope this is clear enough. I have LOOKED for some more info/tutorial about iWeb/Web Galleries/Viewer photo uploads from my Web site, but have not founded anything specific.
    Thanks for any advice!
    - Roger Y

    _*Thanks a lot, Wyodor for your detailed reply.*_
    It just happens that I have gotten quite fond of the way iLife as a suite - along with its online (.Mac in my case) components) seem to keep a good, purposeful flow of things going.
    So, indeed, as I am currently looking at the stuff on my .Mac site, Web GAllery and My Pages respective materials are not actually linked in terms, especially, of allowing Web Gallery albums' updates to "flow" into My Pages areas.
    Too bad in a way! Unless I decide to use the Widget feature in iWeb to link my website photo pages specifically to Web Gallery albums - as suggested by Roddy. Currently I use iWeb template system - with Photo Pages and MyAlbums index.
    You stated:
    +"Your iWeb page shows the tiny player with your dotMac Webgallery.+
    +Click on the tiny player, and the full Web gallery opens."+
    Where is that button actually?
    "Your iPhoto library will be update updated vice versa."
    I'll have to check that out then!
    Thanks again!

  • I have just ordered a photo book from iPhoto, do I not get an email confirmation?

    I have just ordered a photo book from iPhoto but after it generates nothing happens, has it sent? Do I not get an email confirmation?

    I solved the problem. Had nothing to do with Mac or iphoto. Problem must be my the internet connection to my provider.
    Upload at my office worked without any problem. One problem solved, now i am aware with a lot of discussions with my providers helpdesk  ;-)

  • Unable to upload from iPhoto to FB after creating new library

    Two days ago I exported all my photos/videos from iPhoto 09 to an EHD.  I created a new library - Library 2012 - and since have added about 50 photos and one 2-minute video.
    I can click on "email" at the bottom of my iPhoto screen and successfully send images.
    However, I cannot upload photos or videos to FB.  I start on my FB page, click "add photo/video".  In the good ole days, this took me to iPhoto and I could select my image.  Since creating Library 2012, I cannot access my library through any of the links that are on the screen that appears.  I've tried the following, all leading to a dead end:
    Under Media > Photos:  Nothing populates the column to the right.
    Under Places > Applications > iPhoto > "preview" of iPhoto populates column to the right.  Clicking it uploads the useless "preview"
    Under Places > iPhoto Library 2012 > iPhoto Library 2012.  Clicking it uploads to the useless "preview"
    (Note:  I had taken screenshots of the above, to better illustrate, but was unable to upload them to this forum as well.  Frustrating much?!)
    I am just at my wits' end.  Any assistance will be appreciated.  TIA!

    Thanks!  Apologies for the delay in reporting back - was off-line most of the weekend.
    I just ran the repair permissions with Disk utility, as suggested.  A great number of permissions differed ... but, in the end, after it was completed and I re-booted, the same issue remains with iPhoto.
    I'm now running "Permission Verify" just for the heck of it.

  • When I send a photo directly from iPhoto using the Mail app on my iMac, the wrong photo appears on my iPad2 Mail app.  However the correct photo shows if I log into gmail on the iPad2.  I assume there is a glitch with my "Mail" app on the iPad2.

    When I send a photo directly from iPhoto using the Mail app on my iMac, the wrong photo appears on my iPad2 Mail app.  However the correct photo shows if I log into gmail on the iPad2.  I assume there is a glitch with my "Mail" app on the iPad2?  Any suggestions for getting the correct photo to show on iPad2?

    Update:  I was able to have the correct photo show in my email as received on my iPad2 by changing a setting on my IMac prior to sending the photo on the email.
    On the iMac, I went into iPhoto > Preferences > Email photos using > Mail (in lieu of "iPhoto").  This seems to have corrected the issue.  I'm not sure why.  Now the correct photo shows up when received on my iPad2.
