or if not how do i go opening my pdf file?

lorenzoliza:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Unfortunately you can't order from a pdf file. There just is no way to recover that book. For future books I suggest you create a separate library. Then put your photos in an album in the primary library and use iPhoto Library Manager to copy them to the book library. You can then start a new book and quit after a few pages to see if the changes will be kept. If not try deleting iPhoto's preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, and the restart iPhoto. You'll have to reset the preferences but that may solve the problem. Also go into your User/Library/Caches folder and delete the iPhoto cache folder.
Do you Twango?

  • I upgraded to the new operating system, OS Yosemite. When I open iPhoto, I can't find my pictures that were downloaded over the last two years. Where are they?

    I upgraded operating systems and now I can't find my photos in iPhoto. There are only random photos, but I can't find all the other albums I had. Where are they?

    Silly question first... when "deleting duplicates", did you delete the picturs or music folders? :}
    Are the "Previous system" folders still there? Are the photos/music inside the recent Previous folder?
    Have you tried doing a search for the files?
    Do you have a new account set up, that you are now signed in to, rather than your old account?

    Have you upgraded to iPhoto 9.6 for compatibility with Yosemite? If not, try that first.
    It looks like iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails and the original image files.
    This can be caused by a corrupted iPhoto library, or the originals have been deleted or moved.
    Try first to rebuild your iPhoto Library:
    If you do not have a current backup of the iPhoto library, make a copy of the library, but do not overwrite any previous backup.
    Launch iPhoto with the ⌥⌘-key combination (option-command) held down.
    Select "rebuild" from the first aid panel.  This may take a while for a large library.
    Can you now see your photos again?
    If not, rebuild the library with iPhoto Library manager as described by Old Toad:            Re: iphoto crashed

  • HT201364 What is the change betwen mac book late 2006 and mid 2007 ?

    What is the change betwen mac book late 2006 and mid 2007 that couses the OS X Mavericks not to run on it?

    Neither the 2006 or 2007 MacBooks will run Mavericks, nor will the white plastic cased 2008 models. The oldest MacBook that will run Mavericks is the Aluminum case Late 2008 one.
    Looking at the specs, I think that is because prior to the aluminum 2008 model, all MacBooks used less powerful Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) graphics processors with (at most) 160 MB of available video memory. AFAIK, neither Intel nor Apple ever released 64 bit drivers for these GMA graphics processors, so when OS X dropped support for booting into 32 bit mode in Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) that meant the newest OS these MacBooks could support was Leopard (OS X 10.7), the last version to support 32 bit mode.
    It is also likely that the GMA's, with their limited memory & support for parallel processing, can't effectively support technologies like Grand Central Dispatch that system services in the newer OS versions increasingly rely on to speed up more than graphics rendering.
    So, even if one could find a 64 bit driver for the GMA's, the system probably would be too slow at too many things to be practical. (Personally, I have a while 2008 MacBook, & I think the "best fit" OS for it is Snow Leopard. As far as I'm concerned, Lion is basically a beta version of Mountain Lion with too many rough edges & limited user choice to run on mine.)

  • HT5622 I changed my apple id successfully however when I open icloud the old id flashes up with password request,i can cancel this window but its very annoying,any help appreciated

    I recently changed my apple id successfully however when I open icloud a window flashes up with my old id and request for password.This window can be closed but it is so annoying to cancel this everytime.I was told to delete all my apps and reinstall them which I have done.This problem seems to be specific to icloud so will I need to delete and install icloud and if I do will I loe all my contacts pictures etc

    In what way did you change your apple ID?  Did you make a new one?  Changed the password of an existing one or maybe added a new email alias?
    If you go to Settings>icloud, what ID is being displayed?  The old one?  If you scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account, then the device will be disconnected from the current account.  You can then log in using another ID.  Doing so, however, will disconnect you from all the current Apple data, like email and contacts.  Pictures will not be affected.

  • Terrance Devlin answered a question about iPhoto (4-2012) re:copying iPhoto Library to an ExHD, and losing all the albums. I can't locate the "Choose Library" when I open iPhoto with the opt button. Can anyone help?

    I tried to move my images (over 25,000) to an External Hard drive to open up some memory, hoping to make my computer run faster. It took three hours to move the images and I see them all in the mac's menus. However when I try to open them with iPhoto now, none appeared. and when I tried to import them back to the main HD they come in to iPhoto just fine, but not with the albums nor any of the massive organization i'd created in the original. this represents years of images, and I can't imagine that I'd have to recopy them into folders/albums again.
    Terrance Devlin answered a similar question back in April of last year. He said to make sure the ExHD is formatted to MAC OS Extended (Journaled) and to move the library to the ExHD and then open iPhoto with the option button and select "Choose Library" from the resulting menu.
    Command "I" tells me that the new drive is formatted correctly. I can't locate the "Choose Library" when I open iPhoto with the opt button.
    First, I wondered if the application needs to be on the same drive as the Library. I sure would like to know if I can find out how to restore all the folders I had them in. Terrance's advice helped the user that had asked the question.
    Here's the url for that archived discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3849933?start=0&tstart=0
    Can anyone help? I'm using iPhoto 5. My MAC is an OS X version 10.4.11.
    thanks, brokenlom

    Here are Apple's instructions:
    If you are using iPhoto ’06 or earlier, you will need to follow these steps to tell iPhoto where the Library is now located:
    Hold down the Option key on the keyboard and open iPhoto. Keep the Option key held down until you are prompted to create or choose an iPhoto Library.
    Click Choose Library.
    Locate and select the iPhoto Library in its new location.
    (from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1229 )
    Below (in the link below) is what you should see when holding down the option key and opening iPhoto. Keep holding down the option key until this dialogue comes up. You want to select the Choose Library button.

  • My hard drive was replaced last week.  The geek squad from Best Buy backed up all my information prior to replacing the hard drive.  they reinstalled everything on the new hard drive including iTunes.  When I opened I tunes, my playlists were missing

    My hard drive was replaced last week on my macbook pro.  The geek squad from Best Buy backed up all my information prior to replacing the hard drive.  They reinstalled everything on the new hard drive including iTunes.  When I opened I tunes, i had some but not all my songs listed.  All my playlists and purchases were missing.  I attempted to sync my iPod so my playlist and information would be reinstalled but iTunes does not recognize the iPod to allow it to sync.

    Ah I see. That folder would only be there if you had perfomed the earlier steps in that section.

  • How do I change the default from CS6 to Photoshop CC when I open a photo from Bridge CC?

    How do I change the default from CS6 to Photoshop CC when I open a photo from Bridge CC?

    Thank you. That works when I double click a RAW image, (opens in ACR then when I open from there it goes to CC)  but when I double click a jpg it goes straight to CS6. I'm hoping there is a way to change the default, but haven't found yet. I don't want to remove CS6.

    Well heres my story. I tried kde4 from extra the last 3 weeks and I like it. I have used xfce for the past 3 years, previous to that gnome. Tried kde but never really liked it. Now I am only using workspace, base, mutimedia and graphics.
    Here is what I like.
    1- Dolphin, awesome I have used thunar a while and it is great but I love splitview, and fish for ssh (which has been around a while I know), and the ability to mount other partitions on my hdd with a click no fstab entry or nothin'.
    2-Pretty, I've used xfce with built in compositor an love the snappiness. But I like desktop grid with kde4 and flipswitch. Compiz-fusion is cool but I prefer not to use I'll take what the DE gives. Plasmoid are cool too.
    3- Gwenview is nice too. Use to use gqview, but thumnails are nice.
    Looking forward to or lacking
    1- Keyboard shortcuts, Yes xbindkeys is there but if I have a DE I want it to do it. They just don't work now.
    2- kde4 has windows specific settings, but I can't set the opacity for particular windows , doesn't work.
    3- Ram of course is much higher in kde4, but maybe I'm getting old I just don't care as much.

    The adobe digital edition keep on crashing when I open an epub book, what to do?

    Best is to edit in HD and export to SD.
    You need the AVCHD 1080i 25 Anamorfic.
    Or drag a clip into the New Item icon which will give you a matching sequence for your footage.
