Frontrow and photo library

Before I installed iLife 06 and was running iLife 05, I was able to play music using frontrow and then go to photos in frontrow and select library. The music continued so that I could play whatever music and have my complete iLife library running as a slideshow in random order.
This does not appear to be possible in iLife 06 under frontrow. Whenever I try to do this the music stops immedietley as I select library, and preordained music takes its place.
I hope I am making myself clear.
In summary I can no longer select my iPhoto library and choose the music to listen to at the same time whilst running Frontrow.

The music is set in iphoto.
click slideshow, then the music icon, uncheck play music during slideshow, that should do it.

When I synch a file "best photos" via iTunes to my iPhone I get two identical files - "best photos" and Photo library. I don't know why

All photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process are stored in the iPhone's Photo Library.
When transferring multiple albums or a single album, the photos in the albums below are not duplicated as in taking double the storage capacity for the photos. Photos in an album or albums below include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library.
This way you can view the photos in an album only by selecting the album, or all photos in all albums by selecting Photo Library. Makes more sense when transferring multiple photo albums from your computer but the same applies when transferring a single album or folder of photos.
The same applies to iTunes playlists. A song placed in a playlist is not duplicated.

I successfully synched photos from my mac book iphoto to my new iphone 5 (icloud did not do the job). Now these photos appear on my phone in three places--iphoto app, last import, and photo library. Does that mean that they take up three times the memory? Will that affect iCloud? Sorry for the end-user questions!!

HHi, thank you for the reply. I have checked my iPad and iPhone and neither has iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled. Turned off in both. Photostream is turned on.
i tried to sort it out by dragging all the photos to Events on the Mac and then deleting them from iCloud - (left hand side of iPhoto under the section 'Shared'). the photos now show up in Events. I did force quit but the issue remains. The message reads ' photos are bing imported to the library. Please wait for import to complete.'
i can't empty iPhoto trash either. The message read "Delete error. Please wait for import to complete.'
WHen I was moving the photos to the Events I always had a message about duplicates - to the effect that the photos already existed, did I want to import them? I clicked on Yes, import all duplicates. But when it showed the images - duplicates side by side - one showed the photo and the other was blank.
I really don't know what to do! And I don't know how to handle my iOS devices. Is it to do with the large number of photos? Any help, advice appreciated.

Iphoto and photos library

I have updated to OS X 10.10.3 and moved onto photos from iPhotos....but in checking my hard disk, now I have iPhoto library and Photos library.
Should I keep both on my drive?
Why did Mac not automatically delete iPhotos library after successfully upgraded to Photos?
Is there any issue if I delete the iPhotos library?
Thanks

Because that is not how it works - and although it looks like two libraries there is only one set of photos - with hard links so they both look like they are the same size
There is no issue if you delete the iPhoto library except you save very little space and make going back to iphoto impossible in case you would want to

I uploaded my photos to my computer. I now have all my albums and photo library on my phone. I cannot get the off my phone and cannot take pictures on my camera.

Connect your phone back and resync except this time uncheck all the albums from itunes when you sync. This will take all the albums off your phone and clear up space on your phone.

HT201317 Differences of Camera Roll, Photo Stream and Photo Library on iPhone?

I use my iPhoto exclusively as my camera at hand and that means I have tons of photos. What is the difference between Cameroll, Photo Stream and Photo Library? It seems that my Photo Stream has images that can be deleted ( a trash bucket icon) whereas the tech support and my local Mac store said the Photo Stream images are the ones that will be sent to iCloud and should not have the bucket. Whereas my Photo Library is not deletable? Whats is this all about and how can I make it right so I may manage my images correctly?

Camera Roll, all the picture you have taken with your iPhone. They are include in the iPhone Backup but should be transfered to your iPhoto Library on the computer for a better back up. Just like in the old days with a film camera, the is like you iPhones roll of film.
Photo Stream is iCloud's way of sharing your photos between your devices. It is not permanent storage for photo's limited to 1000 photos and can be deleted automatically in 30 days. It is a handy way to veiw photos on an Apple TV and other iOS devices or a quick and simple way to transfer them into iPhoto on your computer with out having to connect your iPhone to the computer. These photos are not backed up other than being visible on all your devices.
The Photo Library contains all the photos you synced from your computer. They are not in any part a part of iCloud or it's back ups. Since these photos come from your computer they should be backed up using it's backup routine. These photos should be managed using iTunes to add and remove them.
Take a picture with your iPhone, the new photo will end up in Camera Roll and Photo Stream. Copy that photo to your iPhoto Library on the Mac either by connecting your iPhone or select the photo in Photo Stream in iPhoto and it will get copied back to your iPhone in it's Photo Library. Once in the Library and a more stable backup routine you are able to detele it from the Camera Roll to clean it up. The Photo Stream copy could be deleted or leave it there for viewing on other devices that may not have access to your iPhoto Library. I suspect we may be able to share Photostream.

Import music and photo library from i pad to mac book pro

i had a problem with the hard drive of my mac book pro and sold all conents. I now want to put the music and photo library and import it on the mac. it does not allow me to do it. what is the best way to do it so i have my library again on the mac books?

You should be able to copy iTunes purchased music back via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, but for music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs), and if you don't have a copy of it anywhere else, then you will need a third-party program to copy it back from your iPad - there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy it : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
If you've changed the hard-drive on your Mac you may also find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
For photos, if they were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then on a Mac you can use Image Capture, iPhoto or Aperture to copy them off : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to an iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

The difference between Camera Roll and Photo Library

I am a bit confused. I have, on my iPhone, pictures in 3 places: Camera Roll, Photo Library, and Photo Stream. I am not sure why iPhone make these distinctions but I want them all to end up in one place: my iMac central photo library.
I only have 3 devices, an iPhone an iPad and a desktop iMac. I manually sync my photos to my computer from my iPhone, and do not really worry that all photos get to all devices immediately. My question is this: How do I make sure ALL the photos from my iPhohe end up in my 'main' photo library on my iMac? Without causing duplicates. It seems like some of the iPhone photo storage locations sync and some do not; occasionally I get a ton of duplicates. It is confusing and I was hoping someone could help me streamline it. I know the iCloud is trying to make things easier, but sometimes it does not seem that way
Thanks!

My iPhoto images won't show, and Photo Library Repair will not open when I command-Option-click on the iPhoto icon.

Some of my iPhoto albums will not show, as below:
When I click on any of those individual albums, for a brief split second I can see the images displayed, but then they revert to this:
Then if I click on any of those images, this image appears:
I have real a lot of posts that say to click Command+Option while opening iPhoto and this will open the Photo Library Repair window, but... this is not happening. Each time I do it, iPhoto just opens as it normally does. I've tried about 10 times, closing iPhoto completely. I've tried through the dock icon and through the applications listing. Neither will open anything other than regular old iPhoto.
Can anyone help me and suggest what I may be doing wrong, or are there any alternative was to open Photo Library Repair so I can rebuild my library? I really don't want to lose all of those photos, especially since some are really important and irreplaceable.
Thanks.

Be sure you're holding the correct keys and that you're holding them long enough. Depress them before clicking on iPhoto and don't let go until the menu shows up.
If you don't want to lose those photos, make a back up now. Hopefully it's not too late.

Best Practice for very large itunes and photo library..using Os X Server

Ok setup....
one Imac, one new Macbook Pro, one Macbook, all on leopard. Wired and wireless, all airport extremes and express'
have purchased a mac mini plus a firewire 800 2TB Raid drive.
I have a 190GB ever increasing music library (I rip one to one no compression) and a 300gb photo library.
So..question Will it be easier to set up OS X Server on the mini and access my itunes library via that?
Is it easy to do so?
I only rip via the Imac, so the library is connected to that and shared to the laptops...how does one go about making the imac automatically connect to the music if i transfer all music to the server ?
The photo bit can wait depending on the answer to the music..
many thanks
Adrian

I have a much larger itunes collection (500gb/ 300k songs, a lot more photos, and several terabytes of movies). I share them out via a linux server. We use apple TV for music/video and the bottleneck appears to be the mac running itunes in the middle. I have all of the laptops (macbook pros) set up with their own "instance" of itunes that just references the files on the server. You can enable sharing on itunes itself, but with a library this size performance on things like loading cover art and browsing the library is not great. Please note also I haven't tried 8.x so there may be some performance enhancements that have improved things.
There is a lag on accessing music/video on the server of a second or so. I suspect that this is due to speed in the mac accessing the network shares, but it's not bad and you never know it once the music starts or the video starts. Some of this on the video front may be the codec settings I used to encode the video.
I suspect that as long as you are doing just music, this isn't going to be an issue for you with a mini. I also suspect that you don't need OSX server at all. You can just do a file share in OSX and give each machine a local itunes instance pointing back at the files on the server and have a good setup.

HT201302 Old iphone 3g has photos on it. When I plug into my imac iphoto and image capture only bring up photos in the camera roll. There were more photos on albums and photo library on the iphone that arent showing up in iphoto and icapture.

My old iphone 3g has photos on it. When I try to get the photos off and onto my imac iphoto and image capture only bring up the camera roll. I have more pictures that arent on the camera roll there are albums and a photo library full of pictures that I want off of this dang phone. I have tried everything and I cant email them to myself because the service has been cut off of the phone. They are stuck on the phone there is there any way to get them off? Am I missing something.

The iphone is not a storage/backup device. It simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.
Again, the photo sync is one way.
Did you fail to maintain a backup copy of your old computer?
Not good. You can e-mail the photos from your iphone. You do not need to have phoe service for this. The iphone uses wi-fi. The photos will never be of the original quality, as they are reduced when synced to iphone.

Missing Sound and Music Library and Photo Library

A student of mine came across this issue. She installed a clean 10.7 FCPX on her Snow Leopard system. Her Sound Library is empty...not even an option for looking in her itunes library. Her photo library is also empty. I've tried adding her folders to fcp via drag and drop, in an effort to get it to "reindex" the files to no avail. The search bar in both is empty so it isn't searching for " " and coming up with nothing. The sound files are exactly where they need to be under the apple folder in the library. What is going on?! I've seen this question posted before with no answers. Anyone know of one? I've attached the frightening photos.

that was not what I was suggesting... But come come to think of it... who know what would happen ? Perhaps worth a try.
Perhaps you could try to repair the disk permissions.
Also perhaps try to delete any cache in
Users/Account-In-Question/Library/Caches
Then delete the FCPx preferences from her user folder...
After that "Reboot WITH shift button held" THEN log in. After that do a normal reboot and log in and check

Updated iPhoto (2.0) and photo library upgrade is stuck

I have just updated to iPhoto 2.0 on my iPhone 5. I get a message that the photo library on this device is being upgraded. For the last over 30 minutes. I have tried to reboot, uninstall iPhoto and then redownload load, but same issue. (I have done the same update on an iPad with no trouble.) Anyone have any thoughts on what I could do?
Keith

Mine is doing the same thing. I have 3000 pictures and let it run for almost an hour and no luck. After a bunch of force closing and re launching it I got the message to go away but it shows no pictures. Opened it again and now it shows the same "The photo library on this device is being upgraded". Anyone get past this

Transfering music and photo library

My main computer with my Itunes library has crashed and can not be recovered. Is there a way to transfer my music and photos that are on my Iphone to my new computer? When I try to manage the library, Itunes wants to erase my my iphone library and replace it with the one on the new computer which holds no songs or photos (it's new). I using a PC with windows XP.
Any help would be greatly appreciated??

For music, if it is music purchased from iTunes, you can cancel the message asking to sync and erase the iPhone. Then from the File menu select "Transfer Purchases From..."
This will copy your purchased music, videos and applications to the computer.
For photos, the camera roll can be imported using Microsoft Scanner and Camera Wizard.
The non-camera role photos can be emailed to yourself. There is no other way to get them off the iPhone.
Contacts and Calendars will Sync over.

My camera app and photo library

When i open camera rebuilding and close
my photo library also the same

Photos in the Camera Roll include photos captured by your iPhone and any photos saved from a received email, from a received MMS, or from a website. Photos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera, which is not handled by iTunes.
Photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone (which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes) are stored in your iPhone's Photo Library. If you transfer albums and/or events from iPhoto for example, the photos in the albums or events below Photo Library are not duplicated. They include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library.
To not transfer any photos from your computer to your iPhone, deselect Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. Select Apply followed by a sync. This will remove all photos from your iPhone that you selected to be transferred to your iPhone under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
