Faces in Photos showed up blank after the upgrades

Faces in Photos showed up blank after the upgrades (no labeled faces at all) with the suggested faces mostly full of 100's of blank white circles. I used to have about 50 faces labeled with about 2500 photos. Now I have no labeled faces on top of page (completely blank) and only 9 face suggestions on the bottom. Photos also runs very slowly compared to iPhoto. I tried re-installing and re-upgrading and have gotten the same results. I'm using a Mac Pro (2009), OS 10.10.3, 2.66 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 16 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC, 7 GB storage. Any help will be appreciated and even if I have to delete the Face's database and start all over, where do I find that database or file to delete?

1. Copy and paste is a very good way of moving chunks of text around, however, it's not really good for moving a Library containing many thousands of files. Drag and Drop is rather more reliable.
it comes up with a black circle and a "!" image.
2. The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • I get a message that my photo library needs to be upgraded and my photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iphoto after the upgrade.  I don't dare do anything.  Please help

    I keep getting a message when I try to open iphoto that says that my photo library needs to be upgraded and my library will not be readable by previous versions of iphoto after the upgrade.  What do I do??

    Depends - you first off need to suypply us with information since we only know what you tell us
    Like what version of iPhoto are you using? Have you recently installed any iPhoto (or iLife) updates or upgrades? Do you plan to use this iPhoto library with two or more different versions of iPhoto (no possible so stop now if you do)? Where is your iPhoto library?
    Anything else that you can tell us that might let us give you a good answer to your question

  • Hi, I just updated my mac from version10.6 to 10.9.3 os mavericks. i went to open iPhoto and it says "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade." does this mean I have lost all photos i had in there?

It does not give me a choice, it just says quit or upgrade? p.s. i didn't realise ther was  a way to back up my computer beforehand, which i am guessing this is time machine?

    1. No, you haven't.
    2. Back up the iPhoto library(this can be done through Time Machine or by dragging it to a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended) and then click Upgrade.
    3. Aside from Time Machine and drag-copying items from your home folder, programs such as the Disk Utility, Carbon Copy Cloner, and SuperDuper can make backups.

  • Photo shows up blank/black

    For the first time an occasional image is showing up blank in the thumbnails. it's black w/number, rating, alteration arrows, just no image. when i scroll through different views -- 'v' -- the proper image is there: full screen, above the list, etc., but not in the thumbnails.
    when i exported with a group, the blank image exported. when i exported by itself, the image exported properly.

    Have a read of these ideas and see if any help, this is a good starting point.

    Specifically Perform a Consistency Check on the library and rebuild the library.

  • I recently upgraded my mac desktop to oxs 10.9.2 and when I open my i photo library there are no pictures.  The message is "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade.Scared to hit upgrade!!!

    I recently upgraded my mac desktop to oxs 10.9.2 and when I opened i photo, it says the photo livrary needs to be upgraded to work with this version of I photo.  Where are my pictures?  The message is "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of Iphoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete".  I'm scared to upgrade!!  Does this mean my photos can't be read once I upgrade?  Where are my pictures?

    First have you backed up  your computer, if you have and your iPhoto library is in the back up you have nothing to be concerned about. If you are not using at least Time Machine to back up your system then you should be concerned because well frankly that is simply bad computing practice and you risking all of your data.
    As for the message you received all that means is your system was using an earlier version of iPhoto with the version of OS X you previously had installed and now that you have updated to 10.9.2 (Mavericks) your version of iPhoto has also upgraded and  needs to get ready to import all of your pictures. If you have backup then you should be confident the upgrade will go through smoothly, Apple generally has very good instructions and will not give bad advice, second guessing them may be cautious but is generally unnecessary.

  • After upgrading to os maverick iPhoto wants to upgrade it says..Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. What exactly will I lose?

    after upgrading to os maverick iPhoto wants to upgrade it says..Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. What exactly will I lose, what will not be readable?

    In the current version of iPhoto, nothing.
    In previous versions of iPhoto, the ability to access any part of it.
    Back it up before doing this.

Yesterday all formerly made entries, both old and in the future, disappeared, only recently made ones in pink/red are shown. any tips?
    I did switch off and on, did a sync with itunes, etc, but no luck.

    RIM doesn't push the upgrades -- your service provider does so, once they have certified and approved the operating system upgrade for their devices.
    But, .973 does work on the 9520 in the manner you wish it would, I've used it myself on that model.

  • Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop
    Actually, it only looks like it takes up additional space. The file size shown is misleading.  When you migrate an iPhoto library to Photos, both libraries will show the media files using hard links. The actual file content of the image files and videos is shared by hard links:
    See this linked document:   Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support
    You will gain no free storage at all by deleting either the iPhoto Library or the Photos library.  So keep both libraries until you are very sure, that Photos is working well  on your Mac and your iPhoto library has been migrated correctly. Also, check, if you like the workflow in Photos. It is very different from iPhoto and some iPhoto features are not supported.
    There will be no easy way back to iPhoto, if you delete your iPhoto library or the iPhoto application. Apple does not sell it any more.

  • Discussion Service is not working after the upgrade to 11.1.1.2

    Hello,
    We have built our custom webcenter application using webcenter framework 11.1.1.1, our application uses out-of-the-box webcenter services like discussions, announcements, and etc. After the upgrade to the new Patch Set 1 (11.1.1.2) the discussion service stopped authenticating the logged in users, however it works for anonymous users.
    We are still in the development phase, therefore all the registrations of webcenter services with our application don't use WS-Security. Please advice and thanks in advance .

    after the upgrade to 10.10.3 Foto doesn't run and call the error of the plugin PhotoFoundation

    Try opening iTunes while holding down the option key. When you get a dialog box with "create a new library" or "choose a library", select the choose option and navigate to the library on your external HD.
    BTW: If your external HD is not powered on and mounted before opening itunes, iTunes will create a new blank library.
