Flickr confusion

Since I have started trying to upload ~28,000 photos from iPhoto to flickr my iPhoto has been crashing10-15 times per day. 2-3 times/day when I restart iPhoto it has to rebuild/repair my iPhoto database. Now new Events with duplicate photos are showing up on my iPhoto's base page.
I started this all by selecting photos within one iPhoto event and then going through the Share button to the flickr option. I would then either add them to an already existing flickr "set" or create a new "set" specifically for these to-be-uploaded photos. It seems to work; the "set" appears on my Flickr page, and most of the photos appear there as well, but then iPhoto has begun crashing and rebuilding and crashing.
Should I just empty out my Flickr account and start all over again? Meanwhile, I'm hesitant to trash the duplicate photos on my iPhoto's Events page (or within a new Event or within an old event - some with the same date/title I use throughout; some now with the original camera card number, others with very long #s that may be flickr file #s?
Is it time to call Apple Care?
Thank you.

Updating Flickr Album help is confusing

i am trying to figure out how to maintain a flickr published album in Aperture and this is like my third or fourth run at this. i am reading the documentation titled "Updating your Flickr and Facebook Albums" and it /appears/ to me that i havvi have to MANUALLY select any /new/ images that i have added to an already published album and then select the album that i want the images to be published in (even though the new images are of course in the already published Flickr Album so i am not exactly sure why Aperture requires me to make this selection).
in any event, i am having the following problem:
while i have just ADDED four images to this already published album and while i /can/ manually select these and then select the album that they should be published in Flickr - what do i do if i am not sure if there are OTHER images in this album that have been added to the album but were not added to the flickr album?
i mean, it seems to me like this is not an automated thing where i can simply add images to an already published album and have them updated in Flickr - but what do i do if i want to make sure all the images in this album in aperture are in the flickr album??
do i basically select ALL the images in the album, publish them all to the flickr album and then delete duplicates on flickr or is there some way to simply "upload unpublished images to this album" or to otherwise have aperture SHOW ME which images are in fact in the online album...
am i missing something easier here?
thanks

hmmm. i guess just selecting all the images in the album and publishing to flickr while selecting the /existing/ album will simply update with the new images and not result in duplication of images already published.
for some reason i remember this resulting in added duplicates in the flickr album but maybe i did something wrong that last time.
anyway, i think this is problem solved...

Lots of confusion uploading to flickr

I routinely upload to Flickr from each of my 5 Macs, and have seen messages in iPhoto that says certain sets are being removed from my flickr account. I suspected that this is because I upload from different Macs and the libraries are different. And the current iPhoto that I'm using is trying to sync it's library to flickr.
I do not want iPhoto to delete any sets like this, without my approval, so I removed the permissions from my account settings on the flickr page, in hopes that I could add them back with only write permissions.
There does not seem to be a way to do that, and now, when I try to upload from from one of the computers running iPhoto 9, it won't prompt to setup the flickr account..it just says :the login details or auth password were invalid".
On my one Mac that has iPhoto 11, it is prompting to setup the flickr permissions again, but it will not give options to allow only writing.... I don't want iPhoto to do any sync'ing in this manner (if indeed, that is what is happening)
So...I have 2 problems; 1. can't upload at all from my iPhoto 9 Macs and 2. Don't want iPhoto to delete stuff from my flickr account.
Flickr help/support referred me to Apple support...so here I am.
thanks to anyone who can sort this out for me.

You might try another ftp program, like Fetch. Make sure the settings are OK for iWeb, per this note:

Hi MztengaM!
Welcome to the Canon Forums, and thanks for your post. Canon USA does have a Flickr Group already established! It's called "Canon Imagination." While it does not focus solely on Digital Photo Professional, it is the one and only official Flickr Group for Canon USA. Feel free to join and contribute!

Flickr integration with Front Row?

I have what I think is the latest version of Front Row (2.2.1, 314). I've seen some conflicting hearsay on the various web forums that there is a way to view flickr photos within Front Row. But I don't see that functionality in Front Row.
Anyone know of a Flickr plugin for Front Row? I'm aware of the Understudy plugin that allows adding YouTube and Hulu feeds, but I couldn't seem to add a flickr feed using that plugin. I'd love to view flickr photos via front row on my old powerbook, which I have set up as a media center attached to my HDTV.
Thanks!

Thanks for the tip. I had heard of the Media Central software, but I don't really want to pay ~$40 for a piece of software just to get the Flickr integration I'm after. Also, as you say, I suspect it won't run very well on my powerbook G4 (1.67 GHz with 1GB of RAM), which is already so taxed by driving my 1080p HDTV that YouTube and HULU videos are essentially unwatchable. I'm mainly using this powerbook like an apple TV to view my family photos and itunes library and on-board movies on my HDTV, all of which works great, but I was hoping to get quick access to flickr as well. I will probably get an Apple TV once Apple upgrades the hardware (hopefully some time in the next year?), but since I have my old powerbook G4 just sitting around for now I thought I'd get as much functionality as possible from it, without spending any significant amount of $. So far all I've spent is $3 on iphone apps to control the mac from the couch ( AirMouse and Rowmote), and $8 on an a headphone-RCA audio cable.
I was hoping someone knew about a FrontRow plugin that could duplicate the Apple TV Flickr integration.
I was also a bit confused by the apparently incorrect section on wikipedia, which claimed that the most recent version of Front Row had Flickr integration. Shouldn't be surprising that wikipedia is wrong sometimes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FrontRow(software)

IPhoto and Flickr - disappearing photos and involuntary syncing

After control-clicking on Check Now in one of my Flickr albums, within iPhoto of course, all of the pictures in the album disappeared, leaving only the name of the album in the list of Flickr albums in iPhoto.
The set made from that album is still present on the Flickr website (so far), even after navigating away from the page and coming back. I have no idea what is going on.
I assumed that Check Now would sync any changes I made to photos in that Flickr set back to the same photos on iPhoto.
I am worried that Flickr is now going to delete all of those photos entirely from iPhoto (as well as from the Flickr site). That would be a big problem. It hasn't done that so far, but who knows? I understand that the syncing between iPhoto and Flickr is two way - i.e. true syncing.
When your changes in Flickr sync back to iPhoto, does Flickr change your original in iPhoto (or whatever is serving as your original for Flickr's purposes - that is, the most recently modified version in iPhoto), or is there a separate version created just for uploading to Flickr, that is stored in the Flickr album on iPhoto, and that is the only version that is changed by Flickr when it is syncing back (to iPhoto)? I hope it is the latter. If not, many of us may be in for a surprise.
Should I delete the empty Flickr album from iPhoto, which should have the effect of deleting that set and its photos from the Flickr website, and start all over? This was a big, long upload, which is why I am hesitating.
I just started using Flickr yesterday and have had some trouble with it - for example, I've deleted albums/sets and re-uploaded them, for various reasons. Perhaps I've confused the poor thing.
I have Flickr Pro, if that makes a difference.
Confused.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The Flickr tool in iPhoto is both pretty neat and pretty frustrating. While I think it is a good start, it still needs work. I probably can not answer most of your questions, but I can clarify a few and offer my own experiences...
The set made from that album is still present on the Flickr website (so far), even after navigating away from the page and coming back. I have no idea what is going on.
That is weird. So the Flickr set in iPhoto cleared itself but the actual set on Flickr is still intact, right? Have you tried restarting your computer, going to disk utility and repairing disk permissions on your start up drive, then restarting iPhoto?
If that doesn't clear it up, you might try rebuilding the iPhoto library by closing iPhoto then restarting while holding down the Option key. Then try some of the rebuild options and see where that gets you.
I assumed that Check Now would sync any changes I made to photos in that Flickr set back to the same photos on iPhoto.
The syncing is two ways, but the Flickr sync back to iPhoto is more limited. For example, if you add keywords in Flickr those keywords will be synced back to iPhoto. However if you add a photo from your flickr account into that album, Flickr will send a small version thumbnail back to iPhoto, not the original photo.
But yes, to answer your question, all syncing between iPhoto and Flickr is more or less a two way sync.
I am worried that Flickr is now going to delete all of those photos entirely from iPhoto (as well as from the Flickr site). That would be a big problem. It hasn't done that so far, but who knows? I understand that the syncing between iPhoto and Flickr is two way - i.e. true syncing.
First off, Flickr can never remove anything from your iPhoto library. Perhaps a photo might be removed from a flickr album in your iPhoto, but the photo will still exist in your library. So you can not lose anything from your library using Flickr.
Second, if the Flickr album in your iPhoto is empty but the photos are still in the album in Flickr, then they will not be removed later. The sync tends to be a real time event where if you remove photos from an iPhoto Flickr album, iPhoto then begins to remove them from Flickr as well.
My own experience is that sometimes things happen like you experienced, where the iPhoto Flickr album gets "disconnected" from the on-line Flickr album. At this point there is no longer a connection and one doesn't effect the other. I have not found a way to relink the two which is one of the weak points of the new iPhoto Flickr syncing.
As a side note, a nice feature would be a menu item to actually do that, disconnect iPhoto from an on-line album, as it would be nice to be able to upload an album, then disconnect it so no further changes are made to Flickr regardless of what happens to the iPhoto album. Basically a "do not update" setting.
When your changes in Flickr sync back to iPhoto, does Flickr change your original in iPhoto (or whatever is serving as your original for Flickr's purposes - that is, the most recently modified version in iPhoto), or is there a separate version created just for uploading to Flickr, that is stored in the Flickr album on iPhoto, and that is the only version that is changed by Flickr when it is syncing back (to iPhoto)? I hope it is the latter. If not, many of us may be in for a surprise.
To the best of my knowledge, Flickr does not sync back actual changes to the photo itself. It will sync back things like album name changes, title changes, keyword additions, and stuff like that. However I have never actually tried publishing an album to Flick then editing a photo in that album in Flickr to see what it does. I should try that to see. Generally, if I have used iPhoto to publish photos to Flickr, then I use iPhoto to make any edits to the photo, not Flickr.
Should I delete the empty Flickr album from iPhoto, which should have the effect of deleting that set and its photos from the Flickr website, and start all over? This was a big, long upload, which is why I am hesitating.
As I mentioned above, if the album in iPhoto is empty but everything is still intact on Flickr, then likely the album in iPhoto was "disconnected" (link lost) from the Flickr album. When you go into that album in iPhoto, does it still show a Flickr link in the upper left? If so, what happens when you click that link? Does it take you to the album?
I just started using Flickr yesterday and have had some trouble with it - for example, I've deleted albums/sets and re-uploaded them, for various reasons. Perhaps I've confused the poor thing.
Flickr is pretty good. It is the iPhoto to Flickr interface and syncing that is a bit weak. It sounds like your issues are with iPhoto's syncing with Flickr than with anything to do with Flickr itself.
I myself use a number of tools with Flickr and I find iPhoto doesn't offer many choices on how it works with Flickr. Actually it doesn't really offer any choices, you get one method of interaction and that is it. So for many tasks I use other tools to get photos onto Flickr.
That said, if you have a full album/event you want to put on Flickr, the iPhoto interface is very handy for publishing a set on Flickr with keywords, map data, etc. and allows you to edit photos later and have those updates automatically go to Flickr as well. But with that comes some problems like being able to edit a photo in iPhoto for a different purpose, perhaps forgetting you added it to a Flickr album since you are accessing the photo elsewhere in iPhoto than that Flickr set, and then having those edits updated to Flickr without you realizing or intending.

More info about my question - there is an emanating wave or broadcast signal icon beside each Flickr album name in the iPhoto source menu. It looks a bit like the Airport signal icon along the top bar of the computer screen. When you click on it, the sync symbol appears and goes round and round for awhile. So that is how you manually sync Flickr albums and sets I guess.
Yes, even if you just click on the set to look at it in iPhoto, you will usually see the little "broadcast" icon indicate it is checking the set against the Flickr set. Usually you see one of several icons. The little broadcast icon like the airport signal simply indicates that the set is synced to a Flickr set but is currently idle. When you click that icon or the set, the icon changes to a circle. A couple of swirling arrows in the circle indicates it is checking online. If there are updates then the circle goes blank and you start to see an advancing pie piece indicating how much of the sync is complete. If the circle just sits there blank for a long time, then the sync has stalled or not working.
One album has the symbol, and two don't. These are the two I had trouble with today (deleting and re-uploading, etc.)
The album that has the symbol also has a link at the top of the photos to the page on Flickr containing that photo set.
The two albums that don't have the symbol do not display a link to the appropriate Flickr page. The corresponding sets are both visible on Flickr, however, as I said.
Perhaps I should start all over?
Ah, ok that answers the question I asked above. Sounds like the two albums somehow got de-linked from Flickr. Both sets show up on the left side under the Flickr listings?
If that is the case, you have a couple of options.
One is if you are satisfied with the set as it appears over in Flickr and don't really have a need to keep a live link between the two (Flickr and iPhoto) you can probably delete those sets from our of iPhoto's "Flickr" albums and your Flickr sets will stay.
On the other hand, if you wish to keep a live link to the two albums so you can continue to edit or update the album, keywords, photos, etc. then you probably want to redo those two.
Unfortunately as I said above, I don't know how to get an album to RE-link back to Flickr once that link has been broken and where it has happened to me I either have removed the set from iPhoto, removed the set and all photos from Flickr (using the Flickr web site tools), then recreating the set in iPhoto and clicking the Flickr upload button again to recreate the whole thing. Or I leave the set on Flickr and continue to work with it directly at Flickr using other tools to add additional photos and doing all my edits on the set or the photos from the Flickr website itself.

Patrick

IPhoto Conversion ModileMe + TWO Flickr Accounts

Two quick questions.
I just migrated over from iPhoto and I noticed that there does not appear to be an indication on my folders that I have published albums to Flickr or to MobileMe (as there was in my iPhoto Album).
I put a lot of time into getting these set up and can anyone assure me that this is idiot proof and I am unlikely to screw anything up? Do I simply try and publish something to MobileMe and just login with my account info?
Also, I have two Flickr accounts and I am constantly getting confused with this. Is there a way to publish an Album to one account as opposed to the other and vice versa? I mean, say it is linked to one of my Flickr Accounts but I want to publish to the other one.
Anyone know how to handle this?
Thanks (newbie).

Hi Ernie. Thank you. I just downloaded FlickrExport for Aperture for a couple of bucks and look forward to testing it out. I think it seems to handle metadata very nicely when linked to Flickr which is nice.
Can I please ask you what this looks like on your end from a mechanical perspective? I mean, you have a bunch of different Albums for your different accounts and you drop images in there when you want them to link to that account?
How did you get them to go to the different Facebook accounts? I guess you just entered this once (for each?) when you published it initially somewhere or did you just change the /global/ settings somewhere publish, change settings again, publish next Album etc?
Thanks.

Question rgd Jeffrey's Export-to-Flickr Lightroom Plugin

Hi.
I stumbled across this plug-in in Scott Kelby's LR2 book, thought it was a cool feature, and was about to install it when I came across this:
"By authorizing this link, you'll allow Jeffrey's Export-to-Flickr Lightroom Plugin to:
Access your Flickr account (including private content)
Upload, Edit, and Replace photos and videos in your account
Interact with other members' photos and videos (comment, add notes, favorite)
Delete photos and videos from your account"
Is this really so? By adding this plugging I will give this Jeffrey access to delete my Flickr photos?
I'd really like to know before installing this thing.
Thanks in advance,
ole k

I guess I was a bit confused by reading: "By authorizing this link, you'll allow Jeffrey's Export-to-Flickr Lightroom Plugin to: . . . . .
Delete photos and videos from your account", as if the plug-in sort of would have a life on its own and start deleting my files. Which, I see now, was not the case. See also my other two replies to this thread.
As for Flickr to delete (among other things) my files, I'm really not that worried, as I am an amateur with little or nothing to lose. It was the idea of having this 3-part program interfering with my photos which scared me off a bit, along with the fact that I only yesterday encounterd another LR plugin - from Adobes/Scott Kelbys site, which included two trojans. But it all seems sorted out now.
Thanks,
ole k

Confused on albums and stacks

Before I upgraded to Snow Leopard and Aperture 2.1.4 I had built three albums with 45 pictures each, and put them in a folder. I used these albums to sync to my iPhone, and looking at my iPhone all 135 pictures are in the right place.
After upgrading SL and Aperture few days ago, I went through my pictures for the last year and created a few dozen stacks.
Today I noticed in the Project Bar that the albums now have 232, 1247 and 1088 pictures.
After a little investigation, it seems, that in any album that had a picture that is now in a stack, the album now includes the whole stack inside the album! I'm able to reproduce the 'feature' by just selecting a picture and 'stacking' it with any other random picture. Unfortunately, if I unstack (i.e. not close) the stack, all the surplus pictures are not removed from the albums.
The stacks of pictures I am referring to are not versions of a master, they are groups of pictures from a single photo event.
Suggestions on eliminating this behavior?

Well, admitting my confusion, here are more details:
I have about 14,000 pictures, 75GB, in Aperture, half are RAW, the rest jpeg. Due to the size of the library all files are referenced.
When I load pictures from the camera into Aperture, they go into a project based on the year (i.e. 2007, 2008, 2009). Years are averaging about 1,500 - 2,500 photos. Inside each Project (year) are a group of Smart Albums based on month, subject or location. All referenced masters for 2008-2009 are on my MBP, all previous Projects (years) have been relocated to an external drive using Aperture's move feature. The stack problem only involves referenced masters on the MBP.
In the Project Pane, underneath the Library I have two folders:
- One folder contains smart albums based on keywords or metadata that crosses Projects (i.e. multiple years)
- The second folder 'Collections' is made up of static albums (and light tables) that I use to sync or export to iPhone, Flickr, websites, etc. These photos also come from various projects.
Recently I got tired of scrolling through hundreds and hundreds of pictures in a project, so if I ran into 30 pictures from a dog show, or party, or vacation, I just selected them and turned them into a stack. I created 20-30 stacks for 2009, another 15-20 for 2008, reducing the browser scrolling time dramatically.
In the simple case, I thought this is what stacks are for.
To my 'confusion' each time I included a picture in a stack (within a single project) the whole stack was added to the static album in my 'Collections' folder [remember Collections is not inside the same project.]
Last month it did not work this way, the evidence is my iPhone that syncs to a static album in 'Collections'. The iPhone shows a photo album of 20 photos that has now grown to 232 on Aperture due to the stacking of images that were included in an album. Four other iPhone sync albums have expanded also. Manually I have not added any images to the albums that expanded.
None of the referenced pictures have been moved, renamed or relocated. After recognizing the problem, I did rebuild the Aperture database, it is about 18GB without the images in it.
While cleaning-up, I did relocate some static albums from the top layer of the Project pane into the Collections folder, but even static albums that were already inside the folder (e.g. 'iPhoneSync2009' have seen increases in the number of images.
I had upgraded to Aperture 2.1.4 and Snow Leopard and synced to iPhone without problem, before I started stacking things.
So, admitting my confusion here:
- Why isn't this what stacks are for? (STACK and UNSTACK should create and delete, expandable and collapsible sets, inside a project or not)
- Apparently no one else see this behavior?
I'm totally open to suggestions of better organization or use of folders and stacks, I've tried to read every Aperture forum and blog I can find.
Thanks for advice,
Flack

IPhoto crashing when setting up access to Flickr

I posted this a while back but nobody answered so I'm trying again.
Can anybody tell me what's going wrong here and how I can fix it?

I have set up the group folders and set
which group folders belong to which user.
That is a bit confusing but basically...
If you only want individual users to see 'their' folder, use the owner permission and set group and other to 'none'. Disallow 'guest' access.
If you want groups to see their group folder, ignore the owner permission and concentrate on group permissions. Set 'other' to none. Disallow 'guest' access.
But
for some Reason I cannot get rid of the folders I
want to get rid of such as the groups folder. The
workgroup manager doesnt allow you to delete the
folder.
Switch off sharing for the folder first.

Flickr and Virtual Copy Problem..

I have photos uploaded to flickr through lightroom but if i create a virtual copy of a used image flickr gets confused because the filename remains the same and wants to update my image with an edit i prefer to keep separate.
Without creating a tiff or jpg of the original RAW file is there a way to avoid this?
Would love to be able to rename virtual copies but it's not possible right?
any solutions?
S

Thanks Sean..
Actually it did work but on the flickr side, i didn't notice until i logged on.. The Flickr side added a '2' to the virtual copy although Lightroom uses the original name/copy. So i guess it works, just a little confusing. I have not tweaked the virtual copy yet to see if it updates the '2' copy on Flickr or throws a wobbly instead
I used Jeffrey's plugin for sometime but eventually I decided to delete all my photos from flickr (new account anyway) and decided to go fresh with LR 3. It works really well and any tweak i make get's republished without deleting any previous comments or data. Jeffrey's just doesn't have that same visual impact and integration. The LR version has a few quirks but seems stable enough for solid use... Just need to be smart with it because pilot error can make problems.

Removing "Deleted Photos to Remove" from Flickr Photostream

Some time ago I had uploaded one collection of photos through Flickr photostream.
Tonight I set up a second collection to upload. I edited the connection to change from "Public" to "Family and Friends" for this upload. It asked me whether to change previous photo permissions or not. At first I said yes. Then I thought it over, especially after a popup box told me that all ratings and comments would be deleted since I had a free Flickr account. Given that, I decided not to change them. So I went into the Flickr photostream window in LR4 (I have not yet published) and when I saw all the previous photos there to be republished, I selected them and deleted them, to avoid having them re-uploaded.
Unfortunately, it didn't have that effect. It put them in a group called "Deleted photos to Remove." I don't want them removed from Flickr. But I can't seem to get them out of this category so I can publish the new photos without removing them. How do I get rid of these images from this window so they won't be removed from Flickr when I upload the new images? Thanks.

Your response is extremely helpful. I began to understand that apparently I was in fact mixing Flickr & LR terminology, even though I didn’t realize it. Given that, you did a remarkable response. I can see that before going further, I need to clear up definitions and terminology.
As background, in the simplest terms I’m thinking of a collection as a catalog section that contains pointers to images (actual or virtual copies) as well as relevant metadata. With that, here’s what I see.
Publish Services Panel. Seems to be only an organizational tool for the program interface.
Publish Service. Hard Drive, Facebook, and Flickr seem to be examples of Publish Services. However I can right-click on Flickr and create another published service on Flickr. So what is a Publish Service, exactly, and why would you want more than one Flickr Publish Service? Perhaps because each Publish Service has its own set of parameters, meaning you could set one Flickr service to Public Sharing and another to Friends and Family. Or you could have different settings for export to Hard Drive? Or, you could set up to publish to an entirely different Flickr account? I’m guessing a Publish Service is simply code/parameters tailored uniquely to each place where you may want to publish?
Photoset. Because initially I right-clicked on the Flickr Publish Service and had the option to create a Photoset or Smart Photoset, I thought Photoset was a LR term connected with the Publish function. I now see if I right-click on Facebook, I get a different set of options – create Collection or Smart Collection. So probably Photoset is a Flickr term, not a LR term? (I’ve used Flickr very sparingly to this point.) I see why that led to confusion.
Publish Connection. Going to Publishing Manager allows me to set up a Publish Connection within the Publish Service. Oddly, when I do that, it seems to set up a second instance of the Publish Service. I’m tempted to think, therefore, that a Publish Service is the specific code tailored uniquely to where I want to publish, and the Publish Connection are the parameters used with that specific instance of the Publish Service?
Collection or Photoset. If I click on a collection under Facebook, or a Photoset under Flickr, I see the relevant photos in the grid, divided into the appropriate categories. (Is this what you mean by Publish Window?) So, what am I looking at? I thought I would be looking at a collection (regardless of what Flickr or Facebook might call it). I would have thought of it as a Publish Collection (pointers to images contained in it, metadata as to the update status of those images, etc.). Based on your comment above, I gather that’s not the case. You say I’m looking at output. I’m not sure what output means in this context. If it’s not a collection, is it a set of images generated on the fly based on the collection? If that’s the case, where do I see the actual Publish collection or smart collection?
Well, that's far more than enough for one post, but I bit the bullet and included it since it was all related. I'll let other items wait since right terminology and defintions are fundamental. I appreciate your help with what for me has been one of the most cryptic parts of LR, and one which is not dealt with in any depth in any of the LR books I have.

Won't Connect To Flickr Via Airport But Ethernet Is OK?

Ok, this is really strange, I've got a MacBook Pro 2.33Ghz 15" and as of yesterday I cannot connect to flickr.com via wireless. However, when I plug in my ethernet cable, everything is fine. I'm using a Netgear Router but I've not played with any settings on that for months. I'm really quite confused and can't think what it could be (I'm a Mac Noob so I could have done something I suppose).
Can anyone enlighten me?
Simon
UPDATE: I should also say that I cannot ping flickr throught airport access either, but ethernet is fine

And as another update, I've just installed BootCamp and there's no problem connecting to Flickr via wireless when i boot into that partition, so the issue has to be somewhere in OS X ?
What a strange problem? Please help....it's driving me mad!

Can the Flickr Publish Service upload to existing Sets?

When publishing photos to Flickr, can I specify the photo to be put in a specific set within Flickr, i.e., photo publishes to my photostream and I want to place the photo into my "Ravelry set?"
How can I accomplish this or do I have to manually go into Flickr and add the photo to a specific set?
Thank you

Not to confuse things by contradicting Brett, but I just tried this, and it works fine for me. Payne1904, try this:
1. Set up your Flickr publish service in Lightroom.
2. In the header of the Publish Services panel in Lightroom, click the "+" button and in the Flickr section, choose "Create Photoset".
3. Name the Photoset the exact name of the existing Photoset that you want the photos to go into.
4. Add photos to the Photoset in Lightroom, and click "Publish".
The photos will be added to the existing Photoset on Flickr. Let me know if this doesn't work.

How do you announce flickr to friends?

I want friends to look at my pictures on Flickr. I'd like to give simple instructions since the Flickr page is very busy and confusing.

Well, before doing anything i must tell you than you cannot have two or more mDNS servers in your system (avahi is one and mt-daapd has another one), so you must tell mt-daapd to not load its mDNS server appending "-m" to the binary line in the daemon (/etc/rc.d/mt-daapd). There is another solution to this. If avahi-daemon runs first in your rc.conf you can configure it so when another program tries to registers its mDNS server avahi disallows it (disallow-other-stacks=yes in avahi-daemon.conf).
The second thing you must know is to add this to a file (for example, daap.service) in /etc/avahi/services:
<!DOCTYPE service-group SYSTEM "avahi-service.dtd">



<service-group>
<name replace-wildcards="yes">%h</name>
<service>
<type>_daap._tcp</type>
<port>3689</port>
</service>
<service>
<type>_rsp._tcp</type>
<port>3689</port>
</service>
</service-group>
,and restarting avahi you can see now the daapd server appears.
